Is this normal on the dropdown notification bar look like **** on the 6.0.1 on our model ?

and the quick settings look the same as lollipop ??

those theme suck... I prefer the original animation on the dropdown and the theme on quick settings... I mean from MM

And how to port the real dropdown from CM to stock it is possible ? and the settings menu ?

Thanks

I flashed and it kept all data messages and call log it kept everything and just upgraded to 6.0.1!

Kernel, Marshmallow and a Telus Note 4

Just wanted to let you all know that from my testing different kernels since flashing Marshmallow, the one that performs the best for me with all stock features working perfectly, with great battery, great performance, quicker boot time and all root apps working seamlessly is ....

H-Vitamin_N910G

3.10.40-H-Vitamin

hani@SimplStation #1

Thu May 19 18:36:19 PKT 2016

Again this is just an FYI as everyone has different needs etc.

Also, if anyone knows of a kernel with KCAL support that works well with this firmware, please let me know. Thanks

What sot did you get ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] seriosbrad:
I thought I was going crazy! I downloaded the Telus ROM (for my Rogers Note 4) twice last night because it was installing Bell apps. Weird. No biggy, titanium backup removed them for me via root :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kushtech:
So far about 5 hours but I've been in out of the sun with max brightness on for periods of 10-15 min each time.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] taksheelj:
Ouhhh way better thn what i am getting will flash H-Vitamin thanks alot.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kushtech:
No problem, give it a try as I am quite impressed with the overall performance and battery.

Previously I was using beastmode and when I would do a soft reboot, things would be VERY sluggish once the reboot finished and it was really annoying. Once I installed this version of H-Vitamin, everything was back to normal and has been great for me so far.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] taksheelj:
Thats great all i need is better battery?

For those of you who wish to change their csc, there is a way to do it without having to wipe your user data. I was able to use this to successfully change from BMC to KDO and all my data and settings were intact. Root is required.

[MENTION=7233909]kushtech[/MENTION] I flashed H-vitamin, but it removed my SU binary? When I use phone info, it says root- yes . However my apps that use root don't work. Should I just reuse cf-autoroot?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gun26:
Yup the latest cf-autoroot for the N910W8 should work fine. That's all I did to root. Or you could flash a SuperSU zip file manually from TWRP, but cf-autoroot is easier.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] goofball2k:
Yes, you have to reflash SuperSU if you flash h-vitamin.

I found the version of h-vitamin I had disabled my wifi, do you have a version that doesn't have this problem?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] RoRo1990:
Does anyone know if Rogers note 4 supports VoLTE? I don't see it in the options. Could it be become i'm on an older firmware?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] baristaman:
Is anyone else having trouble with not getting auto rotation on the new Marshmallow? I tried disabling Xposed, no joy.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] VlitalityX:
My wifi seems to be fine. Im using the stock MM from telus (though somehow bell bloatware was installed). I used cf-autroot to root it, and that's basically the extent of my customization. However when I initially flashed the kernel, my wifi had an authentication problem(probs due to me wiping cache and dalvik??? not sure), so I just reentered the wifi password and everything worked without a hitch.

Did you flash the G version? That's the one I'm using based on the other guy's recommendation.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] seriosbrad:
I did on the first and second flash. It might be a coincidence, but I completely wiped both internal and external storage (after backing important files up) then flashed a third time and it's been great ever since.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] goofball2k:
I think I might have flashed the f version.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kushtech:
Yes its the G version where all features work perfectly so far.

Only problem I have regardless of the kernel used since updating to MM is problems with Titanium Backup writing to SD (backing up any apps - error about not enough storage). I unchecked the mount namespace option in SuperSU but issue is still present.

---------- Post added at 02:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:48 AM ----------

Sorry for late reply. I assume you are OK. I flashed cf autoroot from the beginning and for some reason my root and SuperSU was still present and working after flashing kernel.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] esellerauction:
Root 6.0.1 SU

So i updated fine reinstalled TWRP and latest version of Superusersu but am getting this error?

You have a link for your CF Auto root could my TWRP be out of date? (openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.0-trltecan.img)

Used this SU all good now

For your issue with TB and lack of space, try going into tb's settings and re-selecting or changing your "storage location". Worked for me when I ran into the same issue back on lollipop so worth a shot. (Menu --> Preferences --> Backup Folder Location --> Storage Provider)

---------- Post added at 12:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:25 AM ----------

There used to be apps that did this on the fly but I think it became more complicated once Sammy starting enforcing selinux. I believe it now has to be hardcoded into the kernel, so I would say your best bet is simply to install a selinux permissive custom kernel.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] alquistador:
Has a debloated version of the new stock rom been posted yet?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kushtech:
Thank you, that worked for TB! I can now backup apps - was getting a bit frustrated.

Also, thanks for that custom kernel for 5.1.1 you made, your name brought back kernel memories to when I first rooted my Telus device.

Hello I'm using rogers and it seems MM is coming out next week. I was going to flash the bell model. Do I have to change my csc? Thank you
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sefrcoko:
Going to take a look at that this weekend. Been a while :)

Glad it worked out, it's a pretty obscure setting that never used to be relevant before.

Thanks, happy you liked it! On to MM :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kushtech:
what kernel are you using?

Private mode works perfectly for me using H-Vitamin_N910G kernel.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] cash2387:
For what its worth, the Eastlink ROM has totally no Bloat (ESK for the CSC)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] goofball2k:
I just freeze everything that I can think of, and applied the MSM tweaks. Increased the antutu score to 80k on stock kernel. Curious if the H-Vitamin kernel is better tuned than the stock kernel, though I'd like to have the stock kernel just in case I want to go back. I haven't found it yet, may have to extract it myself.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ongxa:
For me, I use Pakage Disable to disable all the bloadwares, and Titanium backup to freeze or delete (be careful) apps I dont want. So nice and clean.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Jose0726:
I didnt flash any kernel so im guessing stock.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kushtech:
Beats Audio

I just flashed the attached Beats Audio file that I had in the mods folder from another ROM and it works great with Poweramp or stock music player on this new Telus Marshmallow firmware.

FYI, I am using H-Vitamin_N910G kernel and have not tested any other kernel and Beats Audio but most should work.

Since it works so good I thought I'd share with those who are interested - Im not even sure if this is allowed on XDA.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] VlitalityX:
I've noticed that private mode doesn't work for me with the H-Vitamin_N910G kernel with stock MM. Everytime I use "move to private", the gallery just refreshes and the pic I want moved stays. Any solutions?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kushtech:
Did you do a clean install of Marshmallow or an update over previous version. I ended up wiping everything (factory reset all data) the day it was released from Telus and have had no issues with private mode using the same kernel as you.

You can always try clearing various caches etc first.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] RoRo1990:
Flashed eastlink 6.0.1 with odin then factory reset today. Was working fine until I went to charge my phone came back and the auto rotate just doesn't work at all anymore. I've tried booting into safe mode, clearing the cache, removing the battery and dialed the hidden menu to test gyros which were passes. Any suggestions other than factory reset?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] VlitalityX:
I did a factory reset when I installed. I just tried wiping the dalv-cache and cache, still no luck.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kushtech:
No matter what kernel I flash I can only get screen rotation to work with YouTube (tapping on the full screen option) and the stock camera app takes pics and vids in landscape mode as designed. I've uninstalled XPosed, wiped dalvik/art cache but screen rotation issue is still present.

Im back on Xposed now and since I can manually rotate images in the gallery app and since YouTube and camera are OK, I guest its not that critical of an issue to me but it would be nice to get fixed.

For all you folks having autorotation problems, did you delete the Facebook app? I did with Titanium Backup, and apparently when you do that it deletes a system library that affects the autorotation and pedometer. I downloaded and installed the library in this post, rebooted, and bingo. Autorotation restored.

That worked! Thank you.

I just manually unzipped, copied the file in File Explorer to the system/lib directory as instructed, set permissions and rebooted.

Facebook is the 1st app I delete when installing new software.

encrypt/decrypt after marshmallow update?

can anyone share whether they see a decryption option after performing a full device encryption on Marshmallow?

I am talking about a whole device encrypt/decrypt within MM and Not just an sd card procedure...

if i update an unencrypted LL Note 4 to MM, can I then encrypt and later decrypt within MM itself?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] UlysseFR:
Amazing !!! Paid only 9 dollars for my Note 4 on Rogers. I was using another site before, but this price is unbeattable.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kushtech:
I thought I saw a prompt from Samsung, either during the initial update or somewhere related that there will no longer be an option to decrypt once you update to Marshmallow.

I'm pretty sure about this but could be wrong.

I got a Telus n910w8 and was surprised that there's no carrier branding anywhere. No logo on the body or splash screens or bloatware. Samsung wants an exclusive on the bloatware I guess.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dbzgod:
Ah that makes perfect sense for an always on service lol. Thank you for this, my biggest concern was this would affect battery life. I did discover however that it stays on also because of the update it received and you just need to run for the first time and agree to the new terms even if you don't use it, it goes away, I'm disabling it anyways but for those who want to keep it active if they think they might use it agreeing to the new terms and exiting makes it go away as well.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gennadiy008:
I have Telus too, no hardware branding, but 2 or 3 apps from Telus were present. .till I root ;)) keep My Account though
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Brava27:
My theory on that is Telus was very late to the party. They did not take pre orders or have information on the device until morning of release. They literally had no time of putting their bloat on it. Bell and Rogers did. They had no time to do it! Make sense?

[Galaxy Note 4 General] equlizer:
There has never been any branding on canadian phones as far as i can remember.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Wooba99:
I wonder if you buy a Canadian phone, the "bloatware" that appears depends on the sim you insert? I have a telus N4, but I inserted my koodo sim right out of the box. No telus apps on it, just the koodo app which I would have installed anyway.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Brava27:
No. It's all the firmware. I have Telus on Bell phone. Bell bloat.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gqman69:
Well, not exactly, all the carriers crap are there under /system/csc

It's just a parameter (csc) that tells the firmware to include the carrier resources.

For example, Telus is /system/csc/TLS and Bell is /system/csc/BMC.

If you have root you can see the apk for each apps. There are native binairies of course... Anyways, we all have the exact same firmware for our n910w8.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Wooba99:
Can anyone actually confirm that the Wind phone will work with the other carriers? I don't care personally, but someone was asking on the samsung canada facebook and they were told that it does not.

What is the best krnel to use on 6.0.1 for the N910W8 now? I was using Emotion on 5.1.1 and worked great but flashed it on after update to 6.0.1 and it will not work. So any suggestions on a good one for N910W8?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] baristaman:
Apparently I'm the only one here who is having trouble restoring anything from Titanium Backup on the new MM. If I try and restore app+data, the progress just hangs at 0% and never progresses. If I install an app from the Play store and I restore the data alone, it seems to complete successfully, but nothing gets restored.

I did a search and other folks have had similar issues with TiBu and MM (on other phones), and it was suggested it was related to SELinux enforcing. But I get the same issue with the stock kernel (enforcing) and the HVitamin kernel (permissive).

This is frustrating, everything else seems to work great.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Cryingmoose:
Tibu works fine for me. Did you try rerooting?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] baristaman:
Yep. Flashed Beta SuperSu 2.74 from TWRP. Didn't try CFAutoRoot. SuperSU reports TiBu has root permission. I did notice that SuperSu is installed systemless, I was tempted to try conventional root.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] caniranges:
this is xda. You can do it yourself for free.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] slipr:
Hi kushtech, thanks.

the prompt from Samsung comes during the upgrade from earlier versions stating that you can't decrypt the phone if you upgrade to MM when the phone is already in a state of encryption. Thus the question: can we still decrypt the whole device if the device is itself encrypted on MM itself. Anyone with an encrypted MM note 4 merely needs to check Options>security to see if there is a "Decrypt device" option. I have posted this question across XDA as well as reddit and have yet to get anything conclusive.

many thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 General] goofball2k:
No issues here though I do get some issues with certain apps restoring from TB (Google Play Music being the most notable) where it will not restore and hang the restore process.

Are the backups stored on SD card or internal? If SD, did you grant permissions to TB?

No, you should be using G version of Vitamin for stock ROM. You are running a custom ROM that is not built from the CDN Samsung ROM's, and it won't have support for wifi on the CDN ROM's. That is my experience with the 910f Vitamin kernel on the stock telus ROM.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] electech13:
I was thinking same thing.

So (for now) is that vitamin kernel basically the only (good) one for stock mm on our W8 Note4's?

I just flashed the Telus firmware as Rogers always waits longer then everyone else. Seems good so far but typical Samsung TouchWiz crap..

---------- Post added at 10:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 AM ----------

Btw isn't it just fabulous (insert sarcasm here) that we *finally* got mm6.0 for our N4's.. Was only about NINE months since it's release. LoL! Good 'ol Samsung being one of the worst manufacturers for updates..

[Galaxy Note 4 General] baristaman:
I had them on an external SD, and yes, I do know about DocumentStorageProvider and granting permissions. But just to see what would happen, I tried to copy my backups to the internal sdcard and that is when I realized that somewhere along the way TB had made all the backup files zero length. Luckily, one of the unsuccessful things that I'd tried along the way was making an update.zip of all the backups. I was able to copy back all my (thankfully, non-zero length) backup files. I had the same luck I had before, both from the internal and external SD.

I've lost all confidence in TB on DPE2 now. I'm going to Odin back COK3 and restore my OvrDrive nandroid, until TB releases an update.

Data Toggle in notification panel

Just flash the Rogers firmware without wiping my data on my n910w8. Phone was very slow on first boot and had messages to update google services but PlayStore was not responding... Anyway after let it settle for a while and a reboot later, everything now is working fine. Not many change but battery is very good and overall speed is better than LP. I tried to bring back the data toggle in notification panel. Use to do this on every samsung phone i owned but this time my method is not working with marshmallow... I used to edit settings.db with sqlite editor but location is now empty. I also tried the fixdatatoggle.apk but still not working... Anyone found a way to bring back this toggle... After some search here, it seems every samsung phone on marshmallow having this issue...

Also for more customization check out Samsungs Good Lock app. Sucks it's only for the next Gen devices officially from the Samsung App Store.
