Almost on a point except for one correction. We are talking about samsungs implementation of 5.1.1 that requires system and recovery to be completely unmodified in order for kernel to boot. Started with s6 5.1.1

Google devices can still root on 5.1.1 with stock kernel, although that might change with marshmallow. Well they announced that it will be known if you have modified from stock. That might still mean that the stock kernel would boot.

In regards to modifying firmwares at this point with 5.1.1., it is important for newbs as well as those familiar with mods from the days past, is to NEVER EVER uncheck OEM unlock from dev settings with anything modded, or you'll be very sorry.

International Roms Signal Fix-LOLLIPOP 5.1.1 ONLY

Here is flashable .zip file for No SIGNAL/DATA issue when running International N910F/G LOLLIPOP 5.1.1 roms on N910W8/N910T devices. Download link below.

UPDATE YOUR DEVICE TO 5.1.1 OFFICIAL FIRMWARE BEFORE YOU BEGIN.

Instructions: 1) Clean Flash any N910F/G LOLLIPOP 5.1.1 TOUCHWIZ rom via custom recovery, dont reboot yet

2) Flash any custom kernel for your device (For some reason you wont get signal if using emotion kernal, use AEL multivarient for 5.1.1) Download here

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347835280

Reboot Now. Reboot takes 10-15 mins. Be patient.

Setup your device and once done, reboot back to recovery and

3) Flash INTL. Data Fix, reboot

As always make a NANDROID BACKUP before doing anything.

Note- I tested this on Canadian note 4 and its working fine, T-Mobile users test this fix and let me know if its working for them or not.

Wow, thank you for this.

I followed this, rooted and used Root Browser to remove a bunch of apps (If you look at sefrcoko's debloated apps page at : http://xdaforums.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/trltecan-n910w8-aoa1-stock-rooted-t3025538 you can see which apps to remove. I removed a bunch of those, all knox and all the carrier stubs.

This rom has the app stubs for all the canadian providers, I guess when you choose your csc, it downloads the provider's bloatware.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sefrcoko:
On that note, I'm working on the new 5.1.1 Canadian build...should have both stock and debloated versions up later tomorrow if all goes well :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] baristaman:
So after I rooted stock 5.1.1, I ran it less than a day before flashing TEKXodus N4 5.1.1 URv3 (the N910T version, not the N910T3 version). It's so nice! Lots of features, and very stable. It installs the r20 Emotion kernel as standard, but in that thread is a download link to the supposedly alpha r22 version which I am now using. This kernel is stable, smooth, and also supports fast charging, which r20 did not. Engineerdude05 was kind enough to write a guide for flashing this rom on Canadian Note 4s.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Jayster0966:
BIG THANK YOU for this fix. Tried it on my N910T (on ATT) and works well on EMOTION 5.1.1 from the INTL threads. [MENTION=4463570]force70[/MENTION] is correct that the AEL multivariant kernel must be used for it to work (so far).

I also tried it on some "S5/6" ports of 5.1 and phone does boot but systemui FC. This is early results but will try some more combos of rom/kernel soon.

Hope this helps others.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gaganmohal:
Thanks for testing. What rom you were getting system ui FC?

Did you tried that rom without flashing data fix to see if you still get FCs?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Jayster0966:
Tried the fix on Dr. Ketans ported ROMs. Unfortunate it was getting late and did not try to install the roms without the fix. I have tried the same roms at an earlier period and had the no data/wifi issues (but no FC). Like I mentioned, this is pretty early report and I will be definitely trying more combos very soon and will report more results for you.

Thanks again. :good:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gaganmohal:
Dr ketan's rom is still based on 5.0.1 not 5.1.1, this fix is only for 5.1.1

Use old fix for 5.0.1 posted on page 142 of this thread.

Also dr ketan rom has been ported to n910t so no need to flash n910f ketan rom.

Hey n910w8 xda gang! Which rom are you using with the data fix? im not having much luck here. Here are my steps:

1) im trying the "Kyubi ROM V6 [N910F][COI3]-[5.1.1]-[N4/N5/S6 Style]-[Debloated]" - flashed it

2) flashed the AEL multivariant kernel

3) rebooted the phone, setup it up

4) rebooted the phone into recovery, flashed the LOLLIPOP DATA FIX

5) nada - still no signal nor data

thanks!

Okay

I have an Issue.

I have a Note 4 from telus wih 5.1.1. ......... when I switch to WiFi... it is always trying to send REPORTS to samsung ..

I toggle wifi off, and it still tries to send reports to samsung.

I erased my phone.. checked off reports ( turned it off that is ) and it still sends them!

This didn't happen with 5.0.1 !! ugh this is annoying

[Galaxy Note 4 General] ciscostud01:
Its working great for me and I'm on wind. AFAIK its all good on Rogers
[Galaxy Note 4 General] leepcharge:
Do you get 4g speed? I tried Emporia on my phone (also Wind) and I seem to be stuck on H+ all the time. I think its due to being on Bell's csc. I also don't like the idea that Bell has fast dormancy on by default while Wind doesn't (though not too sure if it makes much of a difference).
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ciscostud:
Ya is does say H+ but my speedtest.net result are the same. HSPA+ is 4G but ya sure, the symbol probably is just CSC related and nothing to worry about.

Not sure but I always thought fast dormancy was good for battery.

Anyways, CSC or not my phone has never been better with this ROM, it feel like a new phone.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Idan73:
Yeah, welcome to the new default behaviour on samsung devices. It was probably sending before as well, but the notification did not pop up.

As [MENTION=5403047]gaganmohal[/MENTION] said, delete app or freeze with titanium is the way.

Yes, as per the link I provided. If you read the steps,it again answers your second question. I changed the CSC from Bell to Rogers.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] an_xda:
Yes thanks to the help of a few, I flashed the Bell rom on my Rogers Note 4, upgrade was smooth and all files were in tact (from before the upgrade). Upon changing the CSC however... The phone basically factory restored itself and I had to redownload/reconfigure all my apps. The battery life has increased an insane amount and the animations are a lot smoother. I am really liking the stock 5.1.1 experience.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Dingchow:
Changing csc will always factory reset the device
[Galaxy Note 4 General] tkjeeper:
Never knew...
[Galaxy Note 4 General] TRoN_1:
I flashed my N910W8 with BELL stock 5.1.1 rom and set CSC to Fido...forgot about the factory reset. Anyway, before the upgrade(?), I was getting 45 Mbit download speeds(tested with Ookla) on LTE, now it barely passes 2 Mbits, a few times it hit 10 Mbits. Anyone else getting similar results?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sefrcoko:
If anyone is interested I have a beta kernel available for download/testing/feedback...

I modified the new 5.1.1 stock COI4 kernel to allow it to boot COI4-based 5.1.1 roms rooted with supersu beta 2.50. Rom is otherwise pure stock, and boots in Selinux Enforcing mode (yes, rooted). Big thank you to Chainfire for figuring this one out and sharing with XDA.

The modded kernel boots successfully with stock 5.1.1 COI4 on my device, as well as with iB4STiD's Emporia v3.0b. So I'm assuming it will work with other COI4-based 5.1.1 roms, but I'd like feedback please to know if it works for everyone across the board. If this method doesn't work consistently across roms then I may try another way to get stock booting on 5.1.1 for our device. Full details, instructions, and download here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58717752&postcount=2
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dbzgod:
Wonderful, I'll test it out.

Curious how did you go about this?

I've been waiting for Samsung to release the kernel source code for our Canadian 5.1.1 OI4 and try Chainfire patch to the SE policy's.

I thought about doing it via the previous 5.0.1 build but thought it would be best with possible changes to policy's and anything else that would be different on 5.1.1

As it seems with 5.1.1 I would of had to compile the kernel in permissive for my device, apply the patch from Chainfire then recompile the kernel as enforcing with the patched policy's.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sefrcoko:
Yes I was in the exact same position... I figured the only way was to do as you said: wait for sources and build kernel patched with selinux permissive commit. Then I saw that Phil3759 built a N910F kernel off N910P 5.1.1 source...just repacked it with the N910F ramdisk. That got me wondering if I could do the same for us with another available 5.1.1 source...but then 5 minutes later Phil posted this link lol: http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/wip-android-6-0-marshmellow-t3219344

Chainfire, once again :) ...now if only I could figure out why it seems to work on a few COI4-based rom I've tried...but doesn't work on my own 5.1.1 builds lol.

P.S. btw if somehow that kernel ends up bootlooping every Canadian note 4...sorry :D
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dbzgod:
Tested and working fine on stock firmware, no boot loops. Only thing I've noticed so far from the start is when charging the it was running in fast charing mode by default even though I have it unchecked. Rechecking and unchecked turned it off.

So did you just use Phil's patched sepolicy file and put it into the our 910W8 ramdisk or you went through the whole procedure with a different kernel source?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sefrcoko:
Excellent news! Thanks for the feedback.

Yes I went through the whole procedure. Used my note4 as a reference device, odined to 5.0.1 boe2, unpacked the 5.1.1 kernel, pushed/pulled sepolicy via adb, repacked, etc.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dbzgod:
Awesome, glad that it worked out like that. Hopefully soon Samsung will release the source code for our device's latest update and maybe repeating the procedure on that will help fix your customized roms.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sefrcoko:
Thanks, yes I hope so :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dbzgod:
I just remembered chainfire talking about init.d having many problems here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=63185683

Perhaps it is the added init.d support you put into your roms that are causing the issues.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] turilo:
Glad to see you made the fix, I have been just super busy with work and family that I had no time to look into the 5.1.1 data fix and glad you came to the rescue lol :D I did also sell my note 4 few days back and went to the Note 5 which in my opinion was a big mistake, I feel i downgraded getting that device other than the Camera and sound is only thing I liked about the Note 5. No SD slot and IRB to me felt like a downgrade, not sure if i had a lemon or many going around but massive lag on that thing. So I sold it and went back to the best phone out now to me is the Note 4.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] Jayster0966:
Being an INTL 5.1 snapdragon rom, I don't see why not. You would have to download the rom, AEL multi-variant kernel, and the data fix from this thread.

Flash the rom, fix then the kernel and wait for the boot.

Always make a backup of your current setup first.

Quick update on your modified stock kernel - GPS locked and stayed locked for the 1st time in a long while via Google Nav.

It typically dropped for me on every trip, but not since I flashed SU 2.51 and your stock kernel on Emporia. That's really helpful for me as I use it daily for appointments.
