I have a Note 4 and I am a total noob. I want to reset to factory after getting Marshmallow but before I do, I want to make sure I have everything saved. Does anyone have easy step by step instructions to set up a backup? I've been searching youtube and these forums.

Thank you!

There's Samsung kies and smart switch. But they don't back up exactly everything. That or just copy everything u need saved to a computer or external SD card. With kies/smart switch, I have a feeling that it may also restore the junk and residual, making the factory reset less useful.

recently tried to root my note 4 using CF-AUTO-ROOT. i made sure to use the correct version and it rooted correctly and SuperSU installed. however, my phone takes noticeably longer to boot. it seems like on boot every app crashes once before launching correctly, then after booting Contact Storage, Media Storage and a handful of other daemons and processes repeatedly crash. im currently trying to restore it and try rooting again. any suggestions as to what caused this/how to fix it would be nice.

OTA doesn't work and odin questions

Hi,

I've SM-N910C with build no. (N910CXXU1BOE1). It's Exynos variant and 5.0.1

while it has stock ROM and not rooted I don't get any OTA and it says that my phone is already up to date!

Now I want to install a stock ROM on it and here are my questions and it would be great if anyone help me to get more clear on the subject:

1. Does N910C means Exynos Version? I mean with specifying N910C for download stock ROM I get 100% sure that the downloaded rom is Exynos version?

2. Is being Exynos or Snapdragon matters in flash the stock ROM for my phone (using odin)?

3. What possible cause might interferes with OTA and don't let it update? actually when I tap on check update it says it's already up to date!

I've not root the device, but I've disabled some bloatwares such as FB, Instagram and some others if it count.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imeem:
What country is your phone from? You can try using smart switch or kies to check for update. And yes, you don't mix and match stuff from snapdragon and exynos unless the developer says it is OK. When you r flashing stock rom, you are suppose to flash the one meant for your specific phone and region, but I've seen ppl flash a different region though.

Quality ROM hunt

Hey guys, i have a question. I am looking for a CROM to flash. I have not even rooted my phone yet, as i was happy with how it worked, but A6 didn't fix battery problems of Lollipop and also represented new ones - like removed grayscale battery saving.

What ROMs do you use and how content you are? My main concerns are:

Battery life (i have to charge the phone twice a day, didn't have to with stock KitKat, so it is not a HW problem)

S Pen functionality (I like to draw and paint, so correct S Pen recognition is a priority)

Bluetooth functionality and stability (some ROMs have problems with it - CM based i think)

Fingerprint (again, some ROMs have problems...)

Dark theme (to conserve battery)

Grayscale (again, battery conservation purpose)

Some of you might "advice" me to use search button or look through the forum... i did of course, but a lot of ROMs do not have all the necessary info or ppl do not post all the bugs. So i ask you for your own experience and advice about clean, stable ROM with features mentioned upper if possible.

Severe Battery Issues

Good morning all,

I'm a first time poster here. I've had my Note 4 for about a year and a half now with some minor problems after updates, etc, but no long-lasting issues. I have always been able to troubleshoot the problems on my own and over time fix the issues. However, this time I'm a bit stuck.

Ever since I installed Android 6.0.1 (approximately two weeks ago) my phone has been blowing through battery life like nobody's business. I've installed Battery Doctor and Elixir 2 to determine the issue. The "Android System" process seems to be hogging an absurd amount of CPU, even when the phone isn't doing anything. The phone will usually be hot to the touch in the upper area (95-100+ degrees) and drain the battery extremely quickly. I was streaming music at the gym (approx 1.5 hours) and the phone was down to 70% from a full charge. After re-charging it back to about 90% and almost no use it dropped all the way down to 44%.

Attached are images from last night so you can see the time intervals, battery % and temperature.

[IMG="System CPU Use"]https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B5TmopjcKRcrdzdRWUNBSTZMS1k[/IMG]

[IMG="System CPU 2"]https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B5TmopjcKRcrSV85Y0hjMDVoT2s[/IMG]

[IMG="Battery Heat"]https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B5TmopjcKRcrQkxtX1F5X2MxODQ[/IMG]

A few things to note:

1. I keep the phone on a charger when I'm at work (at this point it's necessary because of the rapid draining)

2. I stream music at the gym every day, with no previous history of rapid battery use like this

3. At night I hang out in the basement of my house which has poor phone reception. That being said, I've never had it drop 50% in one evening with no activity until 6.0.1 was installed.

Seems like a software Issue to me, but if it could be the battery, I'd like to get to the bottom of this. I hope someone can help! Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hi_blues:
Hi,

More details on rom would be appreciated.

There are some ported roms which behave like this making ph hot and draining battery.

A mismatching firmware could also cause bad signal and overheating.

I usually stick to stock android but heavily debloated.

I finally have the N910U rooted and TWRP installed here on 5.1.1 I'm trying to get Cyanogenmod 13 running but it seems like it will detect my sim card (T-Mobile) but it won't go beyond detecting the card being there.

Note 4 stuck in Recovery boot.

Flashed the Marshmallow stock rom on my T-Mobile Note 4 n910t. Odin showed 'PASS'. Phone rebooted, now showing animated android with 'installing system update' below it. At about a quarter of the progress bar it stops then 'erasing' comes up for a couple seconds and 'installing system update' appears again without a progress bar, lasting for minutes. After that the phone either constantly boots into recovery or boots up normally but whenever I reboot it gets stuck on recovery boot.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholasgh00:
Hello! Recently T-Mobile launched MM 6.0.1 for the Galaxy Note 4. I was originally running CM Remix, that was meant for the international version of this device, and all but sim card did not work, (I don't have this device activated, I just use it on the side). When I got bored of the CM Remix I just went to Samsung Kies, and restored the phone to its factory default. When I finished setting up the phone I was pleased to find that I was running 6.0.1, as opposed to 5.1.1. All good? No! I have used Odin to put on the latest version of TWRP recovery, and i flashed v2.76 of SuperSU. All works well in terms of rooting and flashing files, but here is my big issue. NO MATTER WHAT rom that I flash on this damn phone, wifi doesnt work, nor do the service bars show I have signal. I have flashed 6 different roms, and all of them have to same issue, stock 4.4.4, 5.0, 5.11 CM 12,12.1 13, Ressurection Remix. The only thing holding me together is my TWRP nandroid backup that i revert to after every rom I flash. In settings, my phone just says "Turning wifi on" and it stays there. SO WHAT THE @#$% IS GOING ON? Is this something T-MObile implemented when it did the update on my N4, I restored to 5.1.1 with kies all the time before this and after each time, i flashed roms with no issue. Can someone please point me in the right direction here, am I doing something wrong? Is something patched that wasn't previously? WHAT CAN IT BE?

Hi newbie here. Can someone assist me on how to root my phone. My phone model is SM-910U android version 5.1.1

I have read about cf-autoroot but I dont know where to get the necessary files like odin.

Another thing is the recovery tool, where can i get that?

And what others files i need to download to root my note 4?

And also, can i just install a custom rom to my stock rom without rooting it? Because what I have seen to other custom roms here are already pre rooted.

Sorry for the long post ?, I hope someone will help. Thanks

Help my note 4 is flashed rom wrong.

Ok so i found out, that my galaxy note 4 could be flashed rom poorly. Here's why. The multi tasking window does that work. When I click for the side panel i cannot even drag the icon onto the home screen and as well I cannot take screen shot. My camera is a 13mp and 5mp which is weird. What should i do at this point.

***UPDATE** SO i just figured out there is clone phones out there in the market.

Is there anyway we can get this to work if i can flash a stock rom onto it??
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquidgyB:
I'm afraid that if it really is a clone there's practically no chance you'll get help here - no one knows what the hardware in there is, so no Note 4 ROMS would work, let alone any troubleshooting people could help you with.

As for my own noobish question... I've been trying to find this out myself but to no avail.

What's the difference between a N910C and a N910U rom? Obviously the modems are different between the two phones, but are roms interchangeable (I assume not; why?)?

Is it feasible that ROMS may be interchangeable in the future?

I know Snapdragon/Exynos versions are too different for shared ROMS, that's pretty obvious - but sharing ROMs between the various Exynos versions?

Thanks in advance.

some questions...

Hi, guys.

I just purchased this great phablet (if I can say that) yesterday and happy with the product for the moment, few questions though:

1. I noticed that my version of the device is the SM-N910U and looking at the development thread I can't help to see that there are two sections available: Exynos (N910C) and the snapdragon (N910F). What's the difference?

And the last thing, I think my battery is draining way too fast and also see that there is something called GPSD. that has been very friendly with that draining. Can anyone tell what that is?

I think that's it for the moment.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquidgyB:
Well, it'll tell you one of two things. Either you do or you don't have a real Note 4. If it's a real Note 4, then help is at hand, we know what we're dealing with. If it's definitely not a Note 4, then there's nothing we can do - unless you can find a forum somewhere that specifically supports the clone you have.

*When I say "we" I mean the forum at large. Your best bet would probably be starting a thread here in Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting. But like I said - if it's not a real Note 4 there's really nothing we can do.

OK so massive apologies in advance because ive read about 500 posts that say this has been answered but i swear to christ i cant find it for the life of me. ive been at this for about a week trying to root this piece of **** and i finally am doing the one thing i said i wouldn't..... post a post that has apparently already been answered.

To start with here are the facts of what ive done tried and know. I started out with 6.0.1 marshmallow on my device. Following http://xdaforums.com/note...phone-t3421821 post #2 i downgraded to 5.1.1 because at the time it was my understanding that was what was required. i still dont know if i even needed to do that now. after i did that i watched about 100 youtube videos all telling me different **** saying that i needed to transfer super-su and emotion over to the phone which i later found out was just kernel then reboot using odin and the recovery twrp file and send the device directly into recovery mode then wipe the data and install the files transfered to the device earlier inside recovery. then i watched one saying "no dont do that instead use kingoroot from ur pc and then super sume pro to wipe the files off. that just kept shutting off my phone cuz of how unstable the temp root was then i read some posts saying use adb script which i tried and failed at horribly. so bottom line is yes im a noob and yes i need a bit of hand holding as this is my first root ever and i really dont want to turn my phone into a brick. again i apologize for my ignorance but any help what so ever of even pointing me in the right direction would be helpful.

Some general advice

Hi All,

I've been around here a while (on a different username which I can't remember) and need a little advice.

I have a Note 4 SM-N910F which I just bought from a recognised phone supplier on eBay (Envirophone)

This has been supplied unlocked to all networks and everything is fine, what an amazing phone!

There's just one thing - it was an O2 phone, and carries the boot logo and some installed O2 software I can't remove.

I have downloaded the ROM from sammyroms for Note 4 BTU which I believe is the standarkd UK ROM with no network branding.

Can I flash this to the phone with ODIN?

Will this work ok, and all the rest of the functions remain ok?

Many thanks for your help in advance

Hi. I've got a random rebooting problem with my Note 4 (N910C). The phone is rooted and running Bliss 6.1 downloaded from here but the main reason I flashed a custom ROM was because the rebooting issues started before I was using one (the phone was rooted though), factory wipes didn't help and I was hoping a new system could solve the problem, which it did, for a few months. Now it's random rebooting again, booting into safe mode doesn't help. AVG antivirus checks don't detect a problem.
