BAD ASS NOTE 4
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Bxsteez:
Agreed. Most people on here with the Note 4 have excellent battery life. I'm pretty sure my wound is self inflicted and now I'm just trying to figure out how to rectify it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] tfrabbit:
Rooted, and using FireKat v5. I can probably get longer screen time if I didn't play games for hours.

Running Infamous ROM 2.2 w/ bioshock kernel. I love this battery! :)

Sent from a mobius strip
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] masri1987:
can you share every detail of your bioshock kernel settings?

I'm running bioshock on firekat v7 and it's great, overnight i barely lose 8% , screen on time is between 4-5 hours per GSAM battery-
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] masri1987:
So far

i'm at 25% and 4hr screen on time at this point ( not in photos took photos a hour ago)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Temetka:
The only things I changed were:

1. Changed governor to whatever was recommended in the kernel thread

2. Set zen scheduler.

I didn't touch voltages or SD read ahead. Those 2 items above are literally all I have changed.

Is this a lemon?

I have had the note 4 edge for about 4 days now... I am getting (if I am lucky) 10% battery drain per hour! per hour! I was using a note 3 with a 10,000 Mah battery and knew I would take a hit coming to this device that does not have an extended battery released yet, but this is really disappointing.

I intended to hold off on the note 4 until zerolemon or others crafted a battery for it, but pulled the trigger earlier because the reviews all raved for battery life.

Here is what I am at this morning with my only usage being spotify streaming for 20 minutes, and connected to my galaxy gear smartwatch.

Edit- I do not know what Gmail is doing, always so high w/android services. I disabled gmail syncing as I use inbox and not gmail, and also disabled push notifications.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] feltrockni:
Buy a better battery (but it does make your phone somewhat... huge)

Buy an extended battery like the Zero Lemon 10000mah on amazon for 60 bucks. I got 3 days battery life on my note 3 with high usage (gaming and/or music and gps all day). I'm just waiting on my one for the note 4.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] drocksmash:
There is no Edge zerolemon. I already asked and they have no plans to release one... They stated maybe earlier but I was emailed saying they don't and offered an external battery as a solution..
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] umair239:
That's unreal. I call bs on this one. You're probably using it on ultra power saving mode 24/7

Stock non rooted. Better battery after latest NK4 ota.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pinoycrusader:
Stock not rooted
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Bxsteez:
So I've tried all the little power saving roms that are supposed to be amazing but I can't make it through a day. I get less than 4hrs of screen on time and it really doesn't matter if the screen is on or not it lasts about 10hrs before the battery was dead.

I honestly think there is an issue where the battery isn't charging to 100% based on something that I screwed up when I started rom fiddling. But from what i've read there are people with stock roms that are experiencing the same thing. I can't seem to find the correlation here.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] erapmicks:
Stock rooted All LTE
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] jonahtriangle:
So i let my battery drain all the way. It died at 4% is that normal? Shouldn't it go a little further? Is there setting im missing?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] umair239:
Another lie machine here. There's no phone in the market today to be able to pull that sot unless you have that 10000mah brick battery that makes note 4 look like a shoebox.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Face_Plant:
I do not have one of those Zero Lemon pieces of crap on my phone. I had one on my Galaxy Nexus and never again will I purchase their garbage.

What did I do to get that SOT? Watch movies stored on my SD card at a relatively low brightness. That's it. No gaming, phone calls, web browsing, etc. Just movies from my SD card. The phone doesn't have to do any hardcore processing or communicate with towers or any of that crap that eats into your battery to play a movie already stored on it. If I was streaming movies on Netflix or watching stuff on YouTube my battery probably would have died in half the time.

Don't believe me? I'll PM you my address so you can pay me a visit and prove to you that I don't have one of those stupid car batteries taped to the back of my phone.

The number one thing I absolutely cannot stand is when someone calls me a liar when I'm telling the truth, so please don't do it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Rayan:
Well... Not really... My wife's xPeria T2 Ultra with its 3000 mAh battery can outlast the Note 4 BY A MILE (and yet some more) I was blown away!

Take a look at this blurry photo I took the other day.

14 Hors 36 Minutes of Screen On Time with 13% battery left is INSANE!

My "top of the line, high-end super incredible smartphone" (Note 4) struggles to reach the 4 hour SOT mark!

I feel sad now.... :crying:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] rookiegenius:
I installed lots of automate apps (lux, Tasker, agent, ifttt,...) screen brightness at least 50% daytime, 30% night time, all Lte. Some bells and whistles from Samsung (smart stay,...). I have about 5 hours screen on time and I'm happy. It definitely lasts a day. But it's nice to get more, of course. Hopefully lollipop will help with the battery.

Sony phone's battery is very impressive. Samsung please learn Sony
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] erapmicks:
No zero lemon
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] papped:
My phone had massive wakelocks on stock thanks to the Facebook app of all things (100% awake, every day).

Finally greenify'd that POS and that + the Hyperion extended battery, battery life is pretty good now.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] kobe4rings:
lol people with 8 hours of screen time lol yeah you must be charging the phone while using it lmao. most I've got is 5 hours and that was pushing it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Rayan:
There's no way to increase SOT while charging, however I agree with the 8 hour argument which has been (at least for me) impossible to reach 4 hours SOT, much less eight!!!

Cheers!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] masri1987:
lulz, syriasly, the most SOT i've gotten was 6.5-7 hrs of SOT on stock kernel, 9+ hrs of SOT and you must be in airplane mode or doing something other than normally using the device
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] erapmicks:
See for yourself
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] arjun90:
I smell Burn-in. Wakelocks? anyway to disable that in the FB app?

Battery life is OK on the Note 4, really depends on actual usage and background apps. I noticed the more RAM being used, usually indicative of how much overall battery life you can achieve.

How do I check the amount of CPU Usage? What app do you use to monitor CPU Temps?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] papped:
Problem is i'm not really sure if it's any particular part of the FB app that you can turn off that would stop the wakelocks.

I don't really monitor the temps, i just used wakelock detector to figure out what was keeping the device awake 100% of the time.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] PunishedSnake:
Are you stock? What exactly are ya doing during those 8hrs
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] masri1987:
i absolutely give up.

I cannot get all the crazy battery life stats some people are posting and it's driving me insane.

5 hours is the most i can crack open for SOT , that's with no phone calls, wifi connected, and only social media\sms use intermittently.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] erapmicks:
Nexus 6 can wish they can touch 8hrs sot tho
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] masri1987:
Again, what are the EXACT settings people are using to achieve these results,

That includes xposed options such as greenify,

and anything else really.

I've tried stock kernel bioshock ael , al ltypes of settings or leaving it without manipulating settings and still, 5 hrs of SOT barely
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] erapmicks:
I have no greenify installed. Just disabled the Samsung stuff I don't use. Stock rooted
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] masri1987:
I've tried rapture (which is heavily debloated)

I've tried deodexed stock

I've tried Fire kat

I've tried stock kernel and a mix of all aftermarket kernels.

When i first started this journey i had no greenify (sure it's helped just a little)

Still no answers.

I literally haveto not use my phone and leave my screen on all the time in order to achieve your numbers which is bs

Either the 6+hrs of SOT are for ****s and giggles or something is not being told in it's entirety, and i'm not the only individual on these forums expressing their frustration with these insane reported SOT's when i can barely touch 50% of it
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] PunishedSnake:
Doesnt matter to me.

My question remains

---------- Post added at 09:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 AM ----------

Screen was on for 8 hrs during that eh? thats not bad if using stock battery. zerolemon would get me 16hrs on a note3 but my usage patterns are far different.
[Nexus 6  General] pham818:
I think there's gonna be a 2014 refresh of the nexus 5. The Nexus 6 for the phablet market, whereas the new Nexus 5 for the rest of the market.
[Nexus 6  General] NardVa:
I doubt it. You want a refresh get a Moto X 2014.
[Nexus 6  General] steviemch:
In an ideal world yes, and I'd jump at the chance of getting an upgraded N5 over the N6, but I doubt it's going to happen.

Sent by Borg neural subspace transceiver node.
[Nexus 6  General] MattBooth:
I would prefer a refresh over the more expensive Nexus 6, and a cheaper price.

I want a refresh.

But do I think there will be? No.
[Nexus 6  General] PelegK:
I wish.

I seriously doubt that Google will release another Nexus phone this year,

after all Google hasn't lowered the price of Nexus 5 like they've done last year so they've no intentions to stop selling it.
[Nexus 6  General] timedroid:
It would be nice if they released a decently priced/sized phone with Verizon support.
[Nexus 6  General] chipstien:
No refresh but what is wrong with the current Nexus 5. Appears they will offer it in new colors this year. The specs of the 5 are still fine...
[Nexus 6  General] funkyblue04:
Battery life is atrocious. So no, the specs are not fine!
[Nexus 6  General] chipstien:
I haven't ran the final release of Lollipop to confirm that the claim of 30% battery life increase is bogus. And coupled to the fact that my Nexus 5 made it through the day just fine before.....
[Nexus 6  General] Jonnyredcorn:
Untrue, I get between 4-5 hours of use from my Nexus 5(Using faux kernel), and over 24 hours from a charge. I was hard pressed to get over 3 1/2 hours of use(Screen on time) from my galaxy s4.
[Nexus 6  General] funkyblue04:
I've never seen that much SOT with heavy usage. I;ve never had more than 3 hours and yes, I am using a kernal and stopped all apps that were causing wavelocks.

It's also 2014 we need a better phone with a better battery that is not a brick. Wish the Droid Turbo had a Pure and International Edition. American's and their weird Mobile bands!
[Nexus 6  General] tkoreaper:
I don't think they will because there wouldn't be much of a point. Tech hasn't advanced much since it came out... The most you'd see is a jump from 800 to the 805. Not a whole lot of difference with the exception of some efficiency.

---------- Post added at 08:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 PM ----------

Look at some of my posts from a while back... I was getting average 6 hours SoT... Highest was 7. It takes a lot of tweaking, but it CAN be done.
[Nexus 6  General] funkyblue04:
What except steps give you this magical amount of SOT? :D
[Nexus 6  General] msal:
I highly doubt it.
[Nexus 6  General] RohanM:
Tell this to my LG G2.. !!! :p
[Nexus 6  General] tkoreaper:
I've since moved on to the M8 so I don't know the exact specifics, but I do remember some things.

Faux kernel is what I used, like the user above used. There's a lot of features to that kernel that push your batter to the max. My particular N5 was capable of a stable -85mV voltage underclock and it probably could have gone a little bit further. I also used 3rd party apps to control the brightness of the screen... you could teach it what brightness levels to use under certain light situations.
[Nexus 6  General] msal:
I'm sure there will be many Google Play Edition devices soon.
[Nexus 6  General] chancy319:
I doubt it. Besides refreshing crap still makes it crap. Sorry but the Nexus 5 was a terrible device hardware wise. Too many compromises leading to a lot of shortcomings.
[Nexus 6  General] barondebxl:
Nope
[Nexus 6  General] msal:
What was crap about the Nexus 5 (besides battery and possibly the camera)? It had some of the best specs of it's time for an amazing price.
[Nexus 6  General] chancy319:
Exactly what you said. The battery and the camera. Most especially the camera. God, I have had such bad memories with this camera that I am really ready to upgrade. My disappointment peaked after I was at a large sporting event. I took several videos only for the camera app to crash constantly and have the video file get corrupted.

It's strange considering the camera was the most advertised feature in the Nexus 5 commercials. I know I am really piling on the hate but I just have a sour taste with this phone. Don't get me started on the battery.
[Nexus 6  General] msal:
Yeah I understand most people had problems with those two issues but the rest of the phone was top-notch. I don't think calling it entirely crap is a fair assessment.

As for the camera app crashing and your files becoming corrupted, that's a first for me. I don't remember anyone bringing up those problems in the forums, but if you did have those issues, I guess you were a bit unlucky lol.
[Nexus 6  General] jbdan:
Love my Nexus 5 love the camera I have a 2 year old son so it's an important feature. While I admit I'm a photographer enthusiast, the camera is perfectly fine for a phone camera. The N5 has been my favorite phone I've owned by far and nothing touches it as far as speed/fluidity. My battery life is great for my use. I've bought and sold a lot of phones too!
[Nexus 6  General] wtherrell:
But: Nexus 5 + ?
[Nexus 6  General] NexusHexus:
I think they might just release more colours, but I don't think another N5 will be released, as much as I loved my one I would buy a new N5 in a heartbeat. I personally didn't mind the battery and camera, It took the occasional really good shot. I don't know what their relationship is with LG compared to Motorola.

I think if sales are not favourable for the N6 they might try a N6 mini or something, but.. that would just be a moto x lol. In this case a N5(V2) sounds better but we will just have to wait and see.

What I don't want to happen is, I buy the N6 and they release something like this. That would pizzle me off
[Nexus 6  General] Baldilocks:
Really? I get well over 4 hours of SOT, even with stock kernel. I've been more than pleased by the Nexus 5 battery life.
[Nexus 6  General] jbdan:
+1 me as well. I've not once thought my N5 battery life was lacking.
[Nexus 6  General] Schoat333:
Yes, I believe there will be a 2015 refresh of the Nexus 5. It will proabaly come late spring to early summer.
[Nexus 6  General] eksasol:
The only way there will be a refresh is if it's made by a different manufacturer than Motorola, because they are not going to compete with themselves, they already have the X and Droid Turbo. So I think no.
[Nexus 6  General] Schoat333:
I agree. I don't think moto will be making it, but I do think someone else will.
[Nexus 6  General] UnusualSuspect:
I saw a rumor a few months ago about LG possibly making a 64GB Nexus 5. That would make sense to me.

New colors? Meh, but it might get some other folks' motors racing.

They need to be careful, though. Next year's Nexus, the reference device for Android "M", is going to have to be a "phone", as opposed to another phablet. They certainly don't want to introduce a N5 Mk II in the summer that will cannibalize sales of the new device in the fall.

JM2¢
[Nexus 6  General] oneplus:
No.
[Nexus 6  General] donnyp1:
Nope
[Nexus 6  General] DrunkFuX666:
They are not going to be launching a N5 refresh... As others have mentioned, doing so will drastically eat into the N6 sales.

The reason they are keeping the N5 on the market is simply for people who held off buying it waiting for the newer nexus but now can't afford it, OR are not too happy with the size, can still buy the smaller cheaper option, very similar to the Apple Schematic of either get the 4.8 or 5.5 iPhone, with the size and price difference. Might not be the best example, but nonetheless is a comparable one.

Personally I'm really leaning towards getting a Note 4 rather than the nexus 6, its just better value for money with more features, but the ONLY drawback is the lack of dev support... Which the N6 has... Damn.

But yea as far as the N5 is concerned... My only issue with it was always the terrible battery life... Was quite happy with everything else including the camera. I would be down to buy a new nexus 5 if they released one with a 3200mah battery... But obviously that's not going to happen...

[Nexus 6  General] shulinbao:
i want a refresh but i think it isn't possible
[Nexus 6  General] Mr.Costa:
There is no single reason to renew the N5 as of right now. Google is not in the phone businss for the profit of the hardware, but to get to many people.

The Nexus line was originally to give the base for developers to develop. The last two iterations had also the objective of been appealing to a large number of people, getting good hardware to a lot a people. Now that is done, this year is not as necessary. People who want a "mid" price phone can still buy the N5, but also have the option of the Moto G. As long as they are Android google wins users.

It might sound rash but the people that look into Nexus, if they are not subsidized, fall in 2 categories usually:

1-Geeky. Which may or may not like the new version but are unlikely to go to iOS (if they are willing to pay that price they might get an N6)

2-Have geeky friend that recommended a nice priced phone. They can still be recommended the N5 since it will have support for another year at least and the first one can still use the N5.

[MENTION=4852479]houstonn[/MENTION] was originally developing but stopped in June due to computer failures which is being resolved soon. His last build of 6/29 was on 4.4 sources and required the modem of stock 4.4.

The current builds supplied by [MENTION=4238916]ayysir[/MENTION] and now [MENTION=3878813]jakew02[/MENTION] are on 4.2 sources which would require that specific modem.

Which ones exactly not sure as I am not familiar with every carrier version only sprint.

It has been stated in the ROM thread multiple times that you must use a 4.2 STOCK JB MODEM for best compatibility. Any other modems you guys use is solely at YOUR OWN DISCRETION.

A few bugs

Hi,

The thread is too big for me to go thru it post by post so I'll just make a few questions and hopefully I'll get some answers. I flashed this ROM and it was working flawlessly. I only found very few bugs like not being able to set up multiple recurrent alarms because the app would freeze and there was another bug but I can't remember. The problem I find frustrating is with the text messages or SMSs. At first I was not receiving SMSs. Then I was receiving them but I couldn't send any. I returned back to stock VS98024a and I'm still having the same problem but at least I'm getting a pop-up when "General problems: cause code 96". I have googled this several times in several ways and can't seem to find a solution, not even on the Verizon site or help app on the phone. I need help with this please.

Just tried the test build for D802. Booted at LG logo for a while then screen turned black with 2 red lines and one green vertical line. I was so sure I was gonna get the permanent black lines but then again I read that the damaged screens are caused by already faulty hardware under high heat.

Anyways, I panicked and then I restarted the phone by pressing power + down. Then I got the weird boot sequence like everyone above describes and it boots into the OS. Thank God I got no black lines!
