Degreenified? Could you explain what you mean? Never heard the term before. I am and have been using TI backup as I always did on CM11 and all of a sudden as of 6months or so ago, regardless of where I save backups, it fails. The company that makes it does NOT respond to ANY emails. I finally gave up using it.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] jasminedd:
I use greenify application and freezed also TB.

A few days ago I realized this and defreezed the app. I made an attempt of backup planning and checked ...It worked as it normally has to do
[Galaxy Note 4 General] wtherrell:

Nice post, i'm new at flashing custom ROMs but i would like to try it. I order me a Note4 and it seems the supplier will get it 5th October (sweden).

Since Note has lots of pen specific apps and sensors and all i wonder if the custom ROM will make remove these features ?

Samsung adds tons of useful features for both S-Pen and camera but i'm guessing these things wont make the jump to any custom ROMs or am i wrong?

I can see some benefit in getting google updates faster and maybe the UI be faster when removing TW but this beast has so much power (even Note3 is still a beast) so how much of a benefit will there be with a custom ROM ?

I'm really curious the reasoning behind this? i can understand people want to get rid of some bloatware but still there are tons of features you will be giving up right? (in my S4 i just hide or deactive some bloatwares and thats fine). Seems Note 4 will have even less of these crapware inside which is good.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mwebb34:
I currently own the HTC OneMAX, I'm thinking very seriously about upgrading to the note 4 'VZW'. Do they offer the snapdragon and the exynox processors. If so which would be the best and what's the odds on the boot loader being unlocked
[Galaxy Note 4 General] rayman25:
hey guys i am thinking of buying this phone

gonna be a nice update from my Samsung sght989d it going slower every week lol
[Galaxy Note 4 General] spoonymoon:
So in reality there´s little if any difference between lg g3 and new note 4, or what? trying to figure which to buy lg quite cheaper, nearly same hardware specific´s etc.

On lg g3 bootloader is currently locked (but lg promised to unlock in near future) if so support will explode and custom roms will be like on samsung support i quess, but right now it sucks because off locked bootloader, but if unlocked all will be fine i expect, because no safestrap, nor knox

But wont it be same difficulties for note 4 maybe even worse with safestrap and knox ?

and i´m gonna buy a international note 4, will bootloader be locked on those to?

Plz tell me what you think guy´s :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Shamms:
Hi Dr,

Few things. People like me who pickup Note model on 1st day of its launch will not have proper idea of flashing or rooting as no one would have done it by then. So that means using titanium may not work, would you recommend using Helium as an alternate solution.

Next very imp question, will u be also supporting Exynos version as majority of your Indian followers will pickup this version than SD due to lack of availability in India.

Info for all: I have just heard that N4 might be available on 29th or 30th of Sept. I Will come to know 24hrs before the release date as I wanted to pick the 1s piece.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
Hey I am looking to buy on first day as well... Any news on exact availability date yet in india
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dr.ketan:
Usually we get root option when CWM will be released and that possible after getting stock recovery, so have to wait till that. Right now dump having only apps lib and framework files.

Once get CWM it may not take time to get root by [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION]

I have yet not decided but still priority is towards SD version. Still I may support exynos later

If Exynos will release too early then may try to think for it. Alternate is will exchange exynos Note3 with exynos N4 and will give to one of famiy member and I may choose SD. because N3 exynos have nothing much to develop.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
Don't think Samsung will release SD version in india.. In that case how will u get it?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dr.ketan:
Some friends have abroad can send it.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
Okay we are not that lucky then.. Any news on India availability date
[Galaxy Note 4 General] bladefrost007:
Hi doc. Been your follower since note 2. I guess its about time to upgrade to note 4.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ewingr:
Looks like there will be support from a well respected dev for the Note 4. Good news.

I'm on AT&T, and from what I hear, probably should go with a TMO version for unlocked boot loader. But I presume I should wait until it comes out and it is verified to be the case.

The most important thing to me is being able to ROOT, even if I don't use a different ROM, mainly for backup. But from what I'm reading in this thread, Titanium Backup (I call it TIBU) (I presume that is both TI and TB as noted in this thread) is problematic on newer versions of Android. Maybe that's just on NOTE? I have a 4.4.4 ROM on my SGS3, and it's working fine.

Anxious as everyone else, just to find out which carrier's phone I should get...that is, if it can even achieve ROOT.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Eddster3000:
I can't wait for Europe release. Its going to be my birthday present to myself so hope its released before 18th Oct. I am a little confused about what I read about two versions, one with snapdragon and the other with q'com processor. I get the difference with the chips but how will I be able to make sure I get the snapdragon one when I go to the phone shop and what if I find I have been given the wrong one?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] bladefrost007:
Hi doc. What note 4 version did you get? Quad or the octa?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] iggibar:
128

I'm on AT&T and thought about getting it from Tmobile at first, but I don't have the time to stick with a a plan from them for 3 months before they unlock the phone. That's what I was told at a Tmobile store before I finally decided to pick up an AT&T version just like my GN2 and GN3. My GN3 was just as bootlocked as the GN4 will be, and I had a fine time piggybacking roms. I actually found it kind of fun. I would have loved to pick up an international version, but their LTE is not compatible with AT&T, as you all know by now. I also like that there is much more development going on for Snapdragon.

What I also noticed is that I did a lot of modifications on my Note 2 after rooting, but not so much with the Note 3. It was plenty powerful, and didn't really need that much cleaning/tuning. The thing I wanted root most for was to use unlimited pandora skipping with no commercials...and a few other fancy tweeks :)

sd vs exynos

hey dr what is better sd or exynos , from benchmarks i saw exynos has better benchmarks ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] m_carleone82:
Hi. Doc.. Thanks for this topic.

I am follower of you since note 2 with "note 3 features",

then note 3 Ketans rom since K6 to K14

now cant wait for Note 4..

Well I couldnt resist much. And just bought Hk version of note 4 exinox called N910C.. But somehow if things goes better with snapdragon sooner i will make a change about that. But honestly I loved EDGE version which is only snapdragon. however rumors are like edge wont be sold for a few months yet. and it will be hard to find in the countries which only sells exinox

Anyways,

Yesterday

I unboxed my note 4 "910c" , skip wizard. put recovery, and rooted it with chainfire.. everything works faulthless but only, if there is an app which is going to work first time and asking root rights.. it will make you wait 15 seconds in root pop up window to grant roots..wchich is okey yet.

So here is the topic

Yes it is to early to figure out whats going on for problems but just for records;

So I pickup note3 sdcard and put it note4.. i opened titanium and restored missing apps with exluding system.. It completed succefully every app, and i had exactly what i had note 3.. but some how new shealth is messed up.. it doesnt work anymore including its widget.. there was normal application apk, and i guess one another. so i dont know if old data restore confuses it.

also the step counter dont work anymore..

.yes i wiped datas caches. for two health apks.. but not luck.. But this maybe all because of "rooted".. like samsung hub learning center which refuses to work under root.. I am not sure..

So i restored note3s health.. and its working now..

so small recommend to be carefull of restoration, that shealth, actionmemo, snote, etc... applications can overwrite even you choose restore missing and exluding system..

thanks alot doc. u are a legend!

IMEI Tool for Note4 exynos (N910U) is ready. More device support will be added when device available on market.

As usual there will be two version XDA and play store. Probably will upload tomorrow.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dr.ketan:
Probably SD will be available since 18-20th Oct in UAE. If so then travelling UAE on next wk end (24th-25th) and will get SD.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
But will u be still supporting exynos
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dr.ketan:
Most probably YES
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ghawyhob:

[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
Any initial defect or manufacturer defects will be known to you in 1 or max 2 weeks after that any damage will be either physical or the ones which will not be covered under warranty so why wait 6 months

Physical damage also void warranty .. isn't it ?

They seems to be delaying the availability, samsung store here says next month...have u tried talking to samsung store

---------- Post added at 09:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 PM ----------

http://www.expansys.in/samsung-galaxy-note-4-unlocked-lte-32gb-black-265522/

its in stock on Expansys.in and with shipping it costing USD 835 which will be roughly 50k, any idea if we import from here how much duty we need to pay ?

still indian price is horrible...if it were SD version I would have already ordeed from here it will be delivered faster than availability in india officially
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ghawyhob:
But i heared its lagged in some games and exynos better performance .iam hesitate
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dr.ketan:
Actually my city is very small and only one samsung store is there but One samsung service centre owner is my friend and according to him still no words about exact date of availability but probably small quantity may avilable in few days. Also no pricing details available with him yet.

I have no idea about import duty as I have purchased personally as last time same time on diwali I personally visited UAE on holidays and bought from there so no any extra duty paid.

I am waiting for 17th as my froend in dubai today told he may gey SD there on 17th, Exynos avilable already there @2750AED roughly 47K

If there will be much price difference/availibility issue here than I may buy fom UAE. But he will send me personally and have nothing to worry about extra duty. From my city weekly someone going to UAE and not difficult to collect from there. maximum in a wk I can collect. Actually my plan was to go to UAE for small vacation on diwal but very difficult to gets tickets on diwali holidays.

let's see

I know but what i have suffered on small exynos community, i don't want to repeat it again. Even every efforts i have made to develop but hardly I have get appreciation and users always crying for small developer support.

That's only reason for me to get Sd this time.

Anyway now engaged already with N4 development and started to make some mods already with Indian base :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Wacco001:

---------- Post added at 07:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:50 PM ----------

Why don't u order from Samsung e store, its readily available there
[Galaxy Note 4 General] SquidgyB:
imho - and I have no real comparison because I don't have both phones to compare but...

Battery life, gpu power, image sensor, audio chip, possibility* for 64bit compatibility. The only downside of the Exynos as far as I can tell is that the availability in the west will be a problem.

*I know, it's only conjecture

e: anyone who knows better, please feel free to correct me.

Samsung Note 4 China edition: How to get Google Play on them.

Hello. I just got the China version of Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N9100).

It doesn't come with a Google Play store. How do I go about installing the Google Play Store?

I downloaded the 5.0.32 version apk of Google Play store, and I installed it.

But when I run it, it closes or crashes.

So I was wondering if I needed to do something to make it work?

For HTC One I simply looked up Google gms in the HTC Marketplace and installed it, which ended up adding all of the Google stuff (including Google Play).

The Note 4 phone comes with a Galaxy Apps, but searching inside it does not have a Google Play installer (nor Google gms equivalent).

So my question is:

Do I need to root my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 in order to get Google Play to run? It currently closes or crashes when I try to run it.

Did I install an incompatible apk for my Samsung Galaxy Note 4?

Again I am referring to the China version of Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N9100 model)

This can be issue. I have seen some cases where some regional stock ROM failed if you flash on other region even model is same. Flash same country rom which you get while purchased device.

Thank you for your continuous help!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dr.ketan:
This is true for custom rom but stock ROM can cause this. Myself have experienced same on my note3 too. Samsung sometimes makes blacklisting particular partition like modem, cache, hidden which causing odin fail.
