[Galaxy Note 4 General] BluePhnx:
It will work on 3G but not 4G (LTE)

You can check this site out.

http://willmyphonework.net/

Freedom uses AWS-3 band 66 for LTE in GTA. The note 4 doesn't support aws-3 band 66 so no LTE.

You can check these sites out.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] Electroman365:
Ok. Thanks for the reply and the info, blue phnx. I don't care if it's LTE or not as long as the phone works. But are you saying the Note 4 itself doesn't have LTE? I thought Wind just doesn't have it everywhere.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] emilgue:
Wind LTE is of different frequency than the other Canadian provider. That is why it is not supported in note 4.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] force70:
An unlocked T-Mobile note 4 would work perfect as it is capable of the same frequencies freedom mobile uses.

Easy to find on Ebay or some times local in kijiji. N910T

[Galaxy Note 4 General] Electroman365:
Ok. Thanks for the reply emilgue and thanks for the info force70.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] cf100clunk:
Just a reminder that the "Wind" name is now gone. That company is now called "Freedom Mobile".

So summarizing Freedom LTE, from what I've learned from you great folks and from some further reading is that Freedom's LTE band is 66, which is not possible to access with

any

Note 4. Other Canadian carriers use different LTE bands than Freedom does.

If doing without LTE is okay, Canadian carrier and T-Mobile Note 4s will work on Freedom and reach HSPA+ speeds in most of their coverage area.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Electroman365:
Ok. Thanks for the info CF100. I know Wind is now Freedom but it's just the name we got used to. I still have a question though, are there any Note 4s that were made for Wind? I've been looking on CL for some time now and I can find Note 2s and Note 3s that are Wind (originally) but there isn't even one Note 4. It's like they were never made. Is that the case?

And what's confusing me is the Note 4s (from other canadian carriers) for sale on CL that are unlocked yet the sellers say "they won't work on Wind" . So how's that ?? Since an unlocked Note 4 is supposed to work on Wind (without LTE), why are these people saying this in their ads?

Compatibility Cheat Sheet for Note 4 and Freedom Mobile

Freedom Mobile Bands:

2G GSM & 3G HSPA+:

AWS Band 4, 1700 (transmit), 2100 (receive) = 4(1700/2100)

4G LTE:

AWS Band 66, 1700 (transmit), 2100 (receive) = 66(1700/2100)

Samsung Note 4 Bands:

2G GSM bands:

N910W8, N910F, N910C, N910G, N910U, N910T:

850, 900, 1800, 1900 (

no

GSM compatibility with any model of Note 4)

3G HSPA+ bands:

N910W8:

850, 1700, 1900, 2100 (N910W8 is compatible with Freedom's 3G HSPA+)

N910F, N910C, N910G, N910U, N910T:

850, 900, 1900, 2100 (

no

compatibility because 1700 transmit band is missing)

4G LTE bands:

N910W8, N910T:

1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100),

5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 12(700), 17(700)

N910F, N910C:

1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100),

5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 28(700)

(

no

Note 4 models are compatible with Freedom Mobile's LTE since 66(1700/2100) is missing from all)

To summarize, the previous posters who said only HSPA+ will be possible on Freedom Mobile and only with a Canadian Note 4 (N910W8) were absolutely correct. :cool: According to Samsung's specs all other Note 4 models, including T-Mobile Note 4s (N910T), are out of luck on any Freedom Mobile band. :(

I can't seem to find the option to wipe battery stats in twrp recovery. Does twrp latest version not have this feature?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sh0nuff:
Hey guys.. What's the best subthread to use for bootloader unlocks/ ROMs compatible with the Canadian version of the Note 4? In the last I've used AT&T related content for other manufacturers, does the same apply for Samsung stuff? Alternatively I found this link, but the Odin download isn't available. Can someone point me in the right direction?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] BluePhnx:
Start with the T-mobile note 4 forum. All rom should work fine with n810w8. (No need for data fix or kernel). N910T kernels will work on n910w8.

Then see the international n910f/g forums and those touchwiz rom will work but you need DATA FIX and KERNELS for n910w8. You can use n910T kernels on n910w8.

Data fix for cell and data.

Kernel for WiFi and everything else.

If flashing kernel always flash supersu afterwards or lose root.

Odin - https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/114236/N910W8VLS1DPK1_N910W8OYA1DPK1_BMC/

Look down the page in the instructions part the Odin link to download is there.

I've finally given up on the Note 4. Ive had two and they both ended up with an eMMC read fail. Apparently it's very common and there's no fix because it's too expensive. I've been to several cell repair places and they all told me the same thing. I'm not using an LG G5. Same features minus the pen and TouchWiz
[Galaxy Note 4 General] cash2387:
Thanks for the site!. We were out last night taking a walk and our son was on my phone playing PokemonGO and he goes "The phone just died" Turned it back on and I'm at 25%...Then down to 16% in like 30 seconds. Ordered from them last night.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] VlitalityX:
Will we be getting any security patches/incremental updates or have they dropped support for our model?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] nighthawk29:
Knowing our carriers who are SO interested in providing good customer service and support to us (LMAO I couldn't say that with a straight face), I honestly wouldn't hold my breath. I think we're done and the DPK1 was the last firmware update we will see. I hope they prove me wrong but I'm not counting on it.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mystic74:
I don't expect them to release a nougat rom. I wish :) Hopefully they release a security update. Tmobile released one for their T3 model recently already. You can find and install it on your Canadian 910W8 hardware. Tested and working fine. Not sure if you need your carrier's software though.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] MoistPicklez:
Hey everyone, just scooped up myself a N910W8 for really cheap and was hoping to get setup with root and TWRP to get this thing customized! May I ask what rooting method and how you guys get TWRP? I've scoured the general section but am confused to whats compatible with my W8 variant..
[Galaxy Note 4 General] force70:
Easy.

Download the proper twrp here.

Zagg HDX or something? I assume you meant just the screen protector as a purchase. right? Did they install it for you too?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] EP2008:
Didn't watch the video, but I can only assume it's a keyboard from another region (like China ). My Exynos N910U has two different keyboards and the Chinese one has a toolbar.

Sent from my SM-N910U
[Galaxy Note 4 General] nabobcoffee:
Mmm that's interesting. Not sure why mine doesn't have it. Thanks though
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Brava27:
Disregard
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dbzgod:
We have some of those options that are in the tool bar located inside the button to the left of the spacebar, push and hold and more appear.

However we are missing all those extra options they are getting for changing keyboards around, toggles etc, I wonder why we are not getting this as well? My guess would be difference between what North America wants to do vs International.

I would imagine that we could probably just install the keyboard apk from the international model phones and we would get all those options. (would require root to override the system install keyboard apk though)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] nabobcoffee:
I don't think this would require root. But i guess if we can first locate the apk and then take it from there.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dbzgod:
If it has the same signature on the APK then it could just treat it like an app upgrade and yeah we wouldn't need root, but it may be build as a different app.

I'll download the hongkong firmweare for the 910U and extract it out of the system img.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] nabobcoffee:
That will be great please let me know. I hope that it doesn't require root because I am not planning to root. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dbzgod:
Extracted the Samsung keyboard app out of the HK 910U firmware, it let it install but none of the changes were present and when I rebooted my phone it had reverted it and uninstalled the app update on me (perhaps some kind of security protection from SELinux or Knox? not sure)

the app is also not deodexed so it has a separate odex file which you can't override without root, that might be required to see if changes work, but currently I'm not rooted to test it out.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] nabobcoffee:
I hope the coming updates will include those missing fetuses.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] an_xda:
Only a dream but hopefully Samsung will allow us to hide the brightness bar adjuster and S-Finder/Quick Connect buttons without rooting in a future update, they just take up valuable space in the notifications tab right now... :)

I would root but I need to sync up email from work and they will not allow this if I root. :(
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Brava27:
Well here is the thing, last year I did the same thing with my Note 3, I rooted it first day and broke the screen to the point it would not even turn on. I went to Samsung and they asked me if I was rooted, I acted dumb and said "I unlocked it!" and they said Ok. They fixed it without issue.

On thursday I went in and told them what happened and of course I was rooted, they did not ask this time and was fixed one day later.

They did add that if there was any motherboard or internal damage other than the screen I would be charged, but this was purely physical damage (screen).

So in two occasions, being rooted, did not affect my outcome.

If anyone is experiencing a laggy note 4, I've rooted and changed kernel to ondemand Governor and wow what a difference. Give it a try folks!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Wooba99:
I'm pretty sure I saw them in the Pacific mall today. Not sure what colours, wasn't really paying attention
[Galaxy Note 4 General] electech13:
I have to agree! I typically use the OnDemand gov in most cases and in here too..very nice. Although I have to admit, original performance was pretty good but got even better for a few use cases.

Can't wait for some custom kernels to come out to see how we can truly tweak this baby!

i bought a Telus Note 4, and unlock it.

It works with rogers sim, but the phone has telus bloatware.

i was wondering if i should use *#272*IMEI# and Change the Sales Code to RWC (Rogers) ? will that to anything unreversible to the phone apart from now i'm geting rogers bloatware？

should csc matches the carriar that you are using? could i change my csc to FMC (Fido).....so there may be no bloatware？
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Brava27:
I wouldn't play around with that. Just root and uninstall the bloat.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] inonosa:
seeing a Telus Galaxy Note 4 user...:good:

well, rooting Void Warranty, and if changing csc is reversible (i'm not sure about this, or is it?), why not give that a try.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i'm new and have no idea what csc really do, so please correct me if im wrong with my statement.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Brava27:
I rooted and Samsung fixed my screen for free, I really don't know what warranty covers or doesn't cover.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] nabobcoffee:
I am assuming if you brick your phone and Samsung found the knox counter tripped then I don't think they will fix it for free. Not sure if they even fix it at all.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] MoistPicklez:
Sorry for the double post, but from what I gathered, the N910T ROMs are also compatible with our N910W8's?

And any recommendations on ROMs? Seems like there are plenty available out there!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mystic74:
Modified stock roms will be more stable and everything will work.

S5, S7 Note 5, Note 7 roms may be more recent but there might be some glitches.

It is difficult to know your taste and expectations.

You may use doal boot patcher and install multiple roms to test and find the best for your usage.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] MoistPicklez:
I tried EmotionOS and Resurrection Remix, but both 7.1 ROMs wouldn't allow me to install Fire Emblem and Mario Run for some reason, kind of wanted to try a GraceUI ROM but not sure how compatible the N910W8 is with those ROMs. Thanks though I may give the dual boot patcher a try later when I figure out all this jazz lol
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mystic74:
Yes, AOSP roms also have their issues and limitations. Good to have a rooted stock rom for daily usage and try others with dual boot patcher or with backup restore until you find your best.

I think the latest best stock rom for our phones is Tmobile latest T3 rom
[Galaxy Note 4 General] nighthawk29:
Nintendo are jack asses and won't allow rooted users to play those games. Gotta be stock (official) to play those. Their are ways to play on rooted I think if you've installed xposed to use the work arounds but I've never tried. If Nintendo wants to be like that then it's not worth my time to play and support them and those games.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] MoistPicklez:
They work on a stock rooted ROM, but didn't work on the 7.1 ROMs, mind you, I did sign into both Mario and Fire before rooting, then tested them and could still play, so they must only check SafetyNet once they are first ran. Odd I couldn't find them at all on 7.1, but meh, Stock works for now.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] nighthawk29:
Strange, cuz I was using stock rooted and neither worked for me.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] cash2387:
Anyone tried to pass the SafetyNet on Magisk yet? I could never get it to work for me, but I see there's a new version that is more compatible with Samsung devices.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] MoistPicklez:
I just installed Resurrection Remix 7.1.1 and backed both Mario Run and Fire Emblem up using TiBu beforehand, then restored them on this ROM, and they both still work with root access.

I haven't tried yet but I'd like to. I'm not sure what ROMs would be compatible with Magisk, as most ROMs use SuperSU or the classic root function built in Developer Settings.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] MoistPicklez:
Does anyone know which TWRP works the best for the N910W8? I have the Official TWRP 3.0.2.0 from their website, but booting into recovery shows: "Recovery is not SeAndroid enforcing" and has a couple errors when installing 7.1 ROMs..

Then I found another Unofficial TWRP 3.0.N.1, it shows no errors and works great, but the backup progress bar doesn't work, and it doesn't allow me to backup EFS or Modem, like the Official one does..
[Galaxy Note 4 General] force70:
The seandroid not enforcing is normal and to be expected.

I dont really run aosp roms anymore so cant answer the twrp/7.1 question sorry

[Galaxy Note 4 General] shaggyskunk:
TWRP 3.0.2-0 works perfectly with the SM-N910W8 - The two errors that you see (command something - If that's what you're referring to) you just need to ignore - I'd sent a recovery.log to Bigbiff a while ago - But the two errors have no adverse effect on the functionality of TWRP
[Galaxy Note 4 General] cash2387:
So earlier this week my Note hit the dreaded MMC Read failure. Tried all the posts around XDA and no go. Looks like I'm in the market for another device. I've spoke with several places around Halifax and they all tell me for the most past if they can even find a replacement motherboard that I may also need a replacement screen too since theres a high percentage that the screen will crack when they take the phone apart.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] MoistPicklez:
Sorry for your loss man, I didn't know the N910W8 suffered from that issue too.. Damn.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] shaggyskunk:
Same thing happened to me - started to misbehave end of October - and then a couple of weeks ago - Deader than dead - I've got Rogers Device protection - so I'm probably going to get a replacement - Was my favorite phone!!

Funny thing is that my skyrocket - Note 2 and Note 3 are all running perfectly..... S7 is probably the last Samsung device that you can Root - North American anyway.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] cash2387:
Truly sucks that for sure, It looks like its a common Note 4 thing I'm guessing. Which blows because it was a awesome device. So now I'm debating between seeing how much this would be to fix...If it all....Or just going for an LG G4 or G5
[Galaxy Note 4 General] shaggyskunk:
Yeah I still have to call to find out how much the deductible is - anywhere from $100 to a couple hundred dollars from what I understand. Well worth it I think.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] cash2387:
I'm with Eastlink here in NS. No device insurance on it :(
[Galaxy Note 4 General] shaggyskunk:
I guess that if you really wanted another Note 4 you could check with Samsung - I know that the Device Protection is getting the phones from somewhere? You could also check on kajji problem is you don't really know what you're getting from them.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] force70:
Id rather spend the money and fix it than go to a G4 or a G5.

G4 and g5 were never amazing devices, never had a ton of development and are out of date.

That said depending on what it costs you may be able to find a used note 4 for less.

And if its going to be more than the device is worth to fix and you want to get a diff device why not try a note 5 or s7 edge ,s8 plus etc?

Thanks for the input [MENTION=4463570]force70[/MENTION]. I was mainly thinking about switching because its a bit cheaper at the moment. I can pick up an unlocked LG G4 for around $140. And then if I sell the Note 4 off for like minimum $60 (Because come on the screen and pen at ALLEAST worth that:p) It means a smaller cost for me right now. Just a bit tight on funds. I'm back to using my BlackBerry Z10 right now just to have something to text and call on. Plus I think my other half would be okay with me not tinkering with the phone all the time lol.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] MoistPicklez:
Careful, I had a G5 (Canadian Variant) and it had a constant reboot issue, and my wife has 2 dead G4's on our kitchen counter ready to be sent to FutureTel. They just randomly died.. LG is even going to court over their crap build quality.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] cash2387:
:eek: I remember hearing something about them going to court. It was using cheap solder or something right? Wondering if I should rethink, but I'm not sure I can get another Note 4 or I'd rather stick with a removable battery.

I badly need to try to recover some photos that were deleted by accident, but I need to root first in order to use DiskDigger. I have the SM-910W8 model, I tried to root with some file that I found on YouTube, bricked the phone, just got it back running.

I need to get what works to get this thing rooted, there are so many threads that my head is spinning, would one of you be nice enough to point me to the proper root file? And the TWRP that would work with this as well would be great.

Hello all, I have a Note 3, been using the phone for over 3 years now.. The phone still works very good, except that the memory card slot is now shot. The phone just won't recognize any memory card.

Please can anyone suggest if I shud buy the note 4?

The note 4 is very obsolete at this point, yes it was a great device in fact one of my favourite devices ive ever haf and i still have mine but its just too old to buy one at this point.
