Flash this canadian CSC and see if that helps

https://www.dropbox.com/s/3me8zapyltcbafx/5.0.1 CSC Canada.zip?dl=0
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mrcil20:
I tried to replace the ro.product.name and ro.product.device to trltecan in place of trltetmo but it switches to 4g only logo instead of 4g lte from tmo. Maybe missing another config line?

I red somewhere that it doesn't work anymore in LP.

I tried PopRocks but I'm looking for something a bit less stock. At the moment I tried PopRocks, Dynamic pop and Tekxodus on which I am right now.

I flashed the CSC file but no luck.

I'll continue investigating. Can it be kernel related?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mrcil20:
can it be because my model number in the about screen is n910T instead of w8?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dennka:
I am on CMRemix ROM and decided to flash firmware to BOC4. when I do via Odin, I get to the setup screen after reboot, but then I get phone reboots after 5-10 sec and cannot proceed further. Anyone had this dilemma?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] pappcam:
What happens if you edit the "ro.product.device=" entry in your build.prop file? What is it currently?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mrcil20:
ro.product.device=trltetmo = I have the 4GoverLTE tmo logo

ro.product.device=trltecan = I have the 4G only logo
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gaganmohal:
I am getting LTE symbol here running international TW rom without changing built.prop
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mrcil20:
So probably have something to do with t-mobile roms then...

Just got a new 150MB software update. Not sure what it does. Still 5.0.1 so probably a kernel or firmware update. I'm on Bell unrooted.

SimplRom v3.2

Yes i have n910w8 note 4
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dbzgod:
This update enables Carrier Aggregation on our Note 4's which coincidentally LTE Bands 17: 700MHz, 2: 1900MHz & 7: 2600MHz LTE towers were turned on yesterday here in Victoria, B.C. Yay! ^_^

the 2600 band currently is in a Limited state and not fully working, guessing they are still testing it.

Does this affect me in the GTA ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] equlizer:
Which Xposed modules work with our phones? Cant seem to get an answer from anyone :confused:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sefrcoko:
There's a good list of modules that work with TW Lollipop in Mega's PopRocks thread (2nd post): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=60434612

It's in the T-Mobile section but they work for our devices too. I'm running PopRocks v4 (Canadian version) on my N910W8 with a few of those modules and all is well :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dbzgod:
I'm not sure, depends if CA is configured on the towers there, if they are you get to enjoy better LTE if not then should be the same as before really. I don't know what towers are in use in the GTA area.

CA is where you will make use of multiple LTE bands combined to give you more speed.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] faroreefer:
I'm on Boc4 firmware... Can I go back to a kk rom?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] THS1989:
I went outside and did a speed test. It said LTE and I got like 35 Mbps.

I don't see the point of any more speed. I pay 30 bucks for only 3 GB of data shared across 6 phones so LTE-A 220mbps theoretical speed doesn't really help.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mrcil20:
Sure, you can download your lollipop firmware from Sammobile and use Odin to flash it to your phone. No need to be rooted. Be aware that you will lose all your data and settings. There is a lot of tutorials around here to how to use odin.

I'm not familiar with rooting my phone at all, I've had a Note1 since it came out, just got myself a Note4, I'm worried about following information online because I'm from Canada, and a lot of the instructions seem oriented towards American providers. Is there anyone here able to confirm that they've rooted in Canada ( I know it's entirely possible, just wanting advice from someone who has done it first hand. ) It was too much of a bother with my Note1, but I did consider it. Now though for instance Facebook being a stock app that I can't get rid of really just bothers me. I've disabled it etc but ya. I want it gone, and there's other bloatware I want gone. I'm not sure what a stable choice is from here though. I like access to the Play Store. Can anyone offer me suggestions or any advice?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] force70:
Dude your in the note 4 CAN thread most of us are from Canada lol.

I've rooted all my Sammy devices including my note 4 with cf auto root, nothing to it just follow one of the tutorials around for cf auto root.

I'm not sure why you think root would affect your access to the play store though?

Starting to think I don't even really know what rooting is. I'm going to do some googling.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] duykhang524:
Guys I work at a corporate store and there's not even an option in my system to sell outright. Every phone is associated with an account. The only way would be to have an account and pay the balance or your old phone and renew your term.

It's not even about the commision, we have limited stock I received 5 of them yesterday... All black note 4. You can't just sell outright. If you want outright there's plenty of online stores. that sell them for cheaper and unlocked.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dbzgod:
Ouch, yeah I would talk to the manager that is not right, its a Samsung store, should be selling the product regardless. Employees having no consistency happens often it seems when it comes to new products that are not yet in, all the employees don't get the correct information and BS ensues horribly.

Its just sad how this is the same story that I hear happening time after time when it comes to phones, its ridiculous.

I've had friends go through this same BS and in the end they usually still get their device but not till after they had to make complaints and talk to managers *facepalm*

It make sense with apple and you can just directly go to them in store or online, I wish Samsung would do the same thing online and cut this middle man garbage out.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Brava27:

Walked into my local Rogers corporate store as soon as they opened. I was apparently the one person that had called the day before about the Note 4. They told me they had "a ton" of them in the back. Bought it outright for $800 without a problem. They activated the phone, no need to change plans or any of that garbage. 10 minutes later, I was walking out with my new toy. No fuss, no problems.

Ok, got my phone from Futureshop, Telus branded.

Sim unlocking in progress...

Screen looks good, s-pen test good, however the gap is noticeable on mine (not so bad, but still ugly). We opened 3 of them and 1 of them was really bad, the gap was huge on the right side.

For all the "laggers", I think you are on drugs. This thing is smooth all the way.

Also, I think the build quality is good but not exceptional.

I like it.

WOO HOO just picked up my black Note 4! I bought from a Telus store in Edmonton. The guy initially said that he wouldn't sell me the phone because it was Telus policy or something (official Telus store) and I told him that I called the 1-800 number and that they told me I could buy a Note no term as long as it was from official Telus store and not a Telus reseller. He shrugged his shoulders and sold me the phone.

If anyone is having issues ask to speak with a manager.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dbzgod:
I just got back awhile ago from getting my White Note 4 from Bell, it was no problem at all. I walked in I asked about the Note 4 they said they had 2 blacks and 1 white (was their total allotment at the store for launch day xD).

Cool thing is when the lady brought it from the back first thing she asked me was if I wanted to buy it in full or not. No BS here with Bell, it was a great experience ^_^

On top of that I pretty much won the Note 4 Lottery , there is no gap I can't fit a single piece of paper into the sides let alone a business card, the LED light is a perfect circle, no Wacom digitizer issues, tested it in the store right away. The phone is incredibility smooth and no lag at all. No red tint that others were talking about either, so far so good this is great!

For all you fellow Canadians...what's the best AOSP ROM out there for our Note 4?

Depends if your into features, or vanilla android. Features in my opinion, Temaseks rom in the tmobile section, vanilla, slim roms are unsurpassed, imo
[Galaxy Note 4 General] salvador3:
I'm looking for vanilla with latest release of Android (5.1.1?). Slim rom looks promising thanks.

I experienced a strange behaviour on my note that I would like to know if it's normal. I tried to edit my build.prop yesterday night and could not save the change. Permission issue. I tried with Root Browser and ES File Manager with both giving the same error. They both have root permissions in superSU. I tried removing the permissions, uninstall, reinstall, reboot, everything without success. I was on Bioshock kernel. I then went in recovery and flashed Emotion back and was able to edit and save the file without problem. I flashed back Bioshock and can't edit it back.

Is it normal?

Is there something in the kernel preventing edition of system files?

Do you experience this with Bioshock?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 General] x-cimo:
Hi guys, would one of you be kind enough to point me to the right CF auto root for 5.0.1 i'm on BEO1.

Samsung warranty rocks! I have had this phone for 2 months and I had the Arcadia rom flashed with ael 12b kernel and for whatever reason, I'm not blaming anything on these developers but my motherboard got fried. I was somehow able to flash original firmware but Knox is still tripped. Brought my phone to cpr cell repair that is authorized by Samsung. They put a brand new motherboard in with no questions at all. Just thought I'd share if people are scared and thinking like myself that you are screwed if something goes wacky. Hope this helps somebody. Happy flashing!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] tkjeeper:
I just had a good experience with cpr also! VERY minor drop cracked my screen. Best buy warranty was no good for physical damage, they sent me to cpr. Sammy has a 3? month warranty, one time only, for screens! Called every other cell repair company in the city, NONE mentioned the warranty. What city you located in?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Portauxbastard:
London on. They were awesome man. Brought it in on a Saturday and they had to send it out and I had it again on Wednesday. Can't get any better than that. Ive been telling everyone about them. Phone is back working perfect.

Same city bro, they really messed up my case actually, but since they were the only ones fixing a $400 screen for nothing, I cut them lots of slack, they ordered a note 3 screen first, ended up taking 2 months, but he threw in a good quality case and I too have been telling everyone, including Best Buy to send people there.

NO SURPRISE! :)

So many think knox tripped means no warranty/fix/replacement possibility at all.. But often very untrue

There are countless examples of getting service with rooted phone.. Just flash back stock.. Obviously *sometimes* they won't fix if they see modding but more often then not you still get full warranty service

Hello everyone, fellow Canadian here!

I recently bought the Note 4 for my father and he absolutely loves it, and now my mother also wants one.

However, I had a poor experience purchasing the Note 4 the last time. I purchased it at Pacific Mall and the phone turned out to be faulty (camera didn't work) and I had a short scare about returning it as I realized the "Mobilicity" vendor there was not actually Mobilicity - just using its branding and name, and they had only a 1-month return policy. I managed to argue with them to exchange the phone (as exchanging is not 'returning') and the new phone has turned out well.

I don't want to repeat that experience. As we are with Mobilicity and Mobilicity does not carry the phone, we have to purchase the phone unlocked. Does anyone know where in Toronto one can purchase an unlocked Galaxy Note 4 preferably at a discounted price?

Thanks for any answers. I am open to buying online too if anyone knows a good website.

I love how Best Buy tells you straight up the warranty they offer covers everything. I learned the hard way from buying headphones thats not the case. And that was a manufacturing defect.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Hysterics:
Hey there, I'm interested in using this, I believe that's the one you're using? I haven't done any modifying of a cellphone before, but I'm pretty technically literate, is there any chance you could explain the process for me? I'd really appreciate it. I'm trying to find someone in the Canadian thread because I'm worried about different regions phones causing issues? I have a n910W8 on v5.0.1, Kernal 3.10.40-4355937 with Bell.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] force70:
That's an international based ROM so along with flashing the ROM your going to need to flash a kernel that works with our devices and the data fix. Other than that standard wipe in twrp and flash away.

Has anyone here got alliance rom to work on their phone? All over the forums people seem to love it, but I just can't get it to work...I am on bell (don't know if that makes a difference or not)

I have tried both the N910F version and the N910T. I can get both to work, but the data is the issue. I flash the fix mentioned earlier on this thread, then I get a storage space problem. Even tho its clean and nothing on it? Data comes back, but I can't install apps due to the space issue (which isn't an issue!)

I also tried running that AEL kernel but I get a bootloop. I can get a patched tmo bootloader to boot the rom, and also a bioshock kernal will do it. But I can't get rid of that space issue.

I will run my vision rom until then :(

Hello fellow Canadians,

I just upgraded from the S3 to the Note 4 less than a week ago and I'm looking forward to root and install custom ROMs on this fine piece of hardware. I've been looking around for a few days into these sub-forums looking for a clear guidance on anything extra I might need to know specific to this device (I'm familiar with the rooting/flashing on the S3 and it's issues) and there seems to be some confusion on my part in regards to certain things:

1-there seems to be multiple users complaining about losing IMEI or having data connectivity issues after flashing ROMs on this device. Should one backup the device IMEI and restore in that case or follow the guides that I've seen around to restore the CSC for my carrier etc?

2-do we always lose the CSC info when flashing ROMs and do we always need to go through those steps to restore them?

3-can TWRP be installed through the TWRP manager apk or only via ODIN?

4-can we install any baseband from a Canadian note 4 and apply CSC (I'm with Rogers and the latest is BOC4 while EO1 is already available for Telus - should I upgrade or wait for the RWC version to come out?)

5-im no longer a flasholic - I'm looking for a fully customizable TW rom that is 100% stable and with great battery life. Not wanting to start a whole discussion on what's the best ROM/kernel, but which ones would you guys advise me to try based on your experiences. I use my phone for work so I do need something extremely reliable.

I do thank you in advance for your input and help!

Cheers
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sefrcoko:
1 & 2: I never lost IMEI after flashing anything but it's better to be safe than sorry. Back it up just in case. Also just be careful when flashing ROMs for anything other than N910W8 or N910T.

3: Yes both will work (you can also use Flashify if I'm not mistaken). Make sure you flash root (Chainfire Auto-root) through Odin first either way though.

4-All Canadian roms for the Note 4 are essentially the same. I flashed my Bell N910W8 (which was running BOC4) to the Telus BOE1 firmware using Odin. Nothing on my phone was deleted, and my CSC/APNs were intact. The baseband was of course updated to BOE1 and everything works as it should on my device.

5: My recommendation is the latest Canadian version (v5x) of PopRocks rom. Check out the ROM's thread in the T-Mobile dev section.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] sefrcoko:
My N910W8 was locked to my carrier (Bell) when I bought mine. Had to unlock through cellunlocker. As far as I know the phone is either locked to your carrier or not. If unlocked you could use another carrier's Sim card (in Canada, overseas, etc). If locked, well you need to unlock it before you go on your trip if you want to use another carrier's Sim card.
