Dude it was about 266 mb

not 1.8 gb
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mussels84:
if you download it anywhere but OTA, its going to be the full size of the rom.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] smartanks:
The OTA is 266 mb , when you use kies to upgrade , it downloads the complete firmware for the version , like the one on sammobile. Thus 1.8G
[Galaxy Note 4 General] binYaqoob:
Mine was a recent purchased 19.11.2015, so probably the update included all previous patches etc. I had another Note 4 purchased on 12.11.2015 and that one had got about 260+ MB of OTA Update.

KIES needs to figure out a method to only flash updates if possible, instead of wasting download data.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] guitarmafia:
Kudos to samsung.. Everybody's got to install this update.. I dont know what they did to achieve this kinda unbelievable battery life.. I hope everyone is getting the same results as me..

Too exited

Btw with such superb battery life performance hasn't dropped

Note4 rocks ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] neelAndroid:
Which update you have get?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Satya samanta:
After we got 5.0.1 lollipop

This is the 2nd OTA update

The first one really made the phone unusable

N this one came to rescue us ?

Summing it up

This is the 2nd OTA update on 5.0.1
[Galaxy Note 4 General] NHS2008:
Hello guys. I recently got Note 4. I didn't get the Adaptive fast charger with it. Does anyone know any good After-Market Charger [fast] for our phone? I am currently using My old Trusty Nokia N85 charger and it works pretty good. But would still like a good alternative fast Charger. Thank you.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] shekharpati:
I would suggest original Samsung note 4 charger. It's crazy fast. If you want to save money you can get official note 2 charger. Aukey and some other brands have 'qualcomm certified fast charger' 2.0 or something. They are also very good. Good aftermarket fast charging cables from reputed brands like monoprice can improve any chargers performance -even a pc USB connection.

---------- Post added at 09:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:06 PM ----------

Wow a year after launch my note 4 is back to its original glory. Great update by Samsung. Phone is more responsive (evn after a factory reset 2 weeks ago ) and battery life improvement is significant. The last 6 months post lollipop update were nightmare. I almost threw my 60K phone out. Will be with this ROM till I have note 4.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] neelAndroid:
Factory reset your have done ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] NHS2008:
Hey Thanks for the quick reply :)

I see the OG charger on Amazon. But it's ridiculously priced at 2k! (On a side note, did Samsung stop providing the Adaptive Fast charger with Note 4 in Jan-Feb onwards??)

What's with the Note 2 charger? Is it a fast charger? My N85 charger does 2 amps at 5 volts.

The Aukey chargers also seem to be priced astranomical in India. But I found them in the Chinese site. Seems lots of Indians are ordering from there. So I will too jump the ship :laugh:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sushant1thakran:
Quick charge means around 1.2-1.5 amps @ 9v

2 amps at 5 volts are fast but quick charge 2.0 is the fastest
[Galaxy Note 4 General] guitarmafia:
I have not done a reset.. I was about to after that first update but the 2nd 80mb update fixed everything.

Sent from my SM-N910G
[Galaxy Note 4 General] shekharpati:
Note 2 is same 5v 2A but works great on note 4. Only issue the cable lasts year or so. Will recommend bluerigger charge only cable. Have personally tried that too. In fact I will recommend to go for bluerigger charge only cable anyway it works best on fast charge phones. Qualcomm certified 2.0 works best with qualcomm phones as Indian note 4 is. I too ordered from aliexpess last month an aukey car charger. Got the real deal. Black Friday deals are here so you might get better deals from US too.

FYI have you tried local shops for note 4 original charger? I hear you might get good deals in big markets.

---------- Post added at 12:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:39 AM ----------

Kies? I gather smart switch is Samsung's new preffered software. The backup is almost 10 times faster. Didn't try the upgrade as I use OTA these days. If you have a WiFi at home that's the best solution IMHO

---------- Post added at 12:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 AM ----------

10 hours [emoji33] I don't think I will ever see that. How did you test it. Will try this weekend. Though i agree, battery life has improved no doubt.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Satya samanta:
No not done any thing

I was actually fed-up of note 4

After the first update

Hence was not at all exited for the second update and because of the same reason did not even bother to do a factory reset.

Did u get 2nd update OTA?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] neelAndroid:
Which 2nd ?

266 mb ? Or 70mb ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] guitarmafia:
He is most probably talking about the 70 mb update..

The first update was horrible

I recently sent my laptop to repairs.. So i did all the browsing and some novel reading on the phone only. Played a game for a few minutes and also took some calls.. I also have many applications running in the background.. Way more than normal.. Like phoneachievements, watchdog etc. But even after all this the battery life is just phenomenal.

At this moment the battery life of my note 4 is even better than my bro's note 5.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] neelAndroid:
5.0.1 1st update is not 266mb it's 140mb
[Galaxy Note 4 General] guitarmafia:
Yes on bok1

For whats it worth, i have disabled facebook and some google apps like google music. And turned off app optimization.

The main reason for a good battery life with this build should be very low Android System battery drain. Cant say much about gaming performance/drain as i game only a little on my phone. I get 7hrs sot on 2 days standby.. When i use my phone rather frequently, i am getting 8hrs or sometimes upto 10hrs. At least with my usage.

Lower price is not possible it see, s but did they gave a date as to when it will be available to buy
[Galaxy Note 4 General] maksharma231:
I have a bad news for you guys. I went to the local samsung experience store and got told that the device will be available only on pre order before diwali. and quoted the price as 58500!!!He agreed for 58k but demanded 5k for pre order.

I will try tomorrow at nehru place (delhi folks will know). Hopefully no pre order crap there.*fingers crossed)

Moving on to the good part, I got to play with note 4 for 45 min . woohoo! had a blast with it.

Initial impressions: The phone feels lighter than note3(even tho its not).Pressing the s pen button can get a bit clumsy at times, they need to improve this..maybe in note 5 :p. No lag whatsoever, touchwiz is improved. i could feel it in my hands. The metal does feel premium and the back looks good..not awkward anymore. The screen is a beauty, fell in love with it instantly! Multi window works perfectly, the floating windows have no issues opening with swipe(many people were worried about the edge precision) but no issues there :D No lag on angry birds :p but it looked damn pretty! Sound is loud enough for me. Much much much better than my tab 3.

The photo note worked perfectly no issues there..will have to try with my own handwriting tho.

I absolutely love the new calligraphy pen!! Its beautiful. I am so gonna use it

All in all a cool phone!

All there's left is to try my luck tomorrow and get it..at least pre order it.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ruchirtrehan:
I doubt that pre-order thing, I also did went to a Samsung store Lajpat nagar and played with the demo unit it was freakin damn awesome except a slight colour shift thing might not affect me much tho, the guy their said I can buy it tomorrow onwards but no pricing unveil yet also Samsung has held an Mega Launch Event tomorrow 5pm onwards in cyber hub, gurgaon, so I doubt they'll delay selling N4 at least in Delhi. :/

Maybe u shud do a reset... Last update gave me a horrible battery life.. Android system was eating battery like crazy and was always using so much cpu..

If the reset doesnt solve ur problem, install something like watchdog and monitor for a day or two which apps are using cpu more than 30%(set an alert).. It should tell u if an app is the problem or some bug in the build(android system ll show high usage in this case and will trigger the alert frequently).

[Galaxy Note 4 General] Satya samanta:
My uncle was comming back from US

I asked him to bring it for me.

I did not take out the cover .

Here are some of the pictures of my note.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] NHS2008:
Wow! its not all that bad by the looks of it.

Does it hinder camera/Flash?

How long does it take to charge?

How much did it cost?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Satya samanta:
It costs around 4500 rupees.

Camera flash is not hindered but u get a cut off line like in case of projector bulbs ?

Takes about 10 hrs from 0%

Zerolemon adviced to do charge and discharge cycles about 5-6 times

And then after that you don't have to bring the battery to 0% every time only the initial cycles.

So roughly 5-6 hrs of charge alternate day is sufficient ?

It's a bit bulky but feels too good and the best part it feels like a remote or game pad, while you play game the thickness gives superb comfort.

Thank you

Means those apps are acting like my phone is not a rooted one..
