[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elliwigy:
you can use a rom slot.. some have had some issues such as dpi being off or other minor things.. it really varies.. of course you cant reboot without a battery pull which does it for me..

when ss rolled out i was helping hashcode troubleshoot and was in his irc chat.. he was always saying how he does NOT recommend you install any ss recovery on your drvice that wasnt made specifically for it since theres a lot that goes on with SS such as partitions and rom slot creation to the internals etc..

hes very busy too and im not sure if hes around or updating ss at all.. either way, i know hes most likely not coming back to update ss on the s5 since he wouldve already..

i dont recommend installing the s4 or any other ss apk for our device.. if you or anyone else is successful then please share lol
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liljoe727:
I told my brother in law ss 3.75 for the S4 may or may not work on his phone. I can fix the soft brick so I'm not worried about it. If he let's me give it a shot I'll be sure to let you guys know how it went, one way or another. Ive been switching back and forth between eclipse and Hyperdrive with ss 3.75 on my S4 all weekend and the only issue I has was with eclipse which is in my custom slot. I had to toggle wifi on and then reboot to get the rom to find wireless networks but I only had to do that the one time. Goodstuff. Hopefully he will let me mess around with his S5 this weekend :D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] harlenm:
Anyone else find the screen to be lacking sharpness?

I'm coming from a gs5, and this phone doesn't seem as crisp with text as well as images.

Went to best buy tonight and looked at the 3 they had on display and they all looked the same.

I also think the colors are muted compared to the gs5, but I'm not sure if that is a bad thing or not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] freebee269:
the colors "seem muted" to you coming from a gs5 because the gs5 colors are saturated. the note 4's colors are more closer to the right color spectrum than any amoled display has ever been. the note 4's colors are more natural, more realistic.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] harlenm:
Thank you, I do understand that. But it still doesn't explain why the screen seems blurry compared to the gs5.

It's almost as if everything the extra resolution is causing it. If I look at a very high resolution picture, it appear to look fine, but then everything else seems slightly off.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] holywhitebread:
I thought I was the only one. I got my Note 4 yesterday and of course I didn't take my eyes off of it for a good hour or so and I thought it was in my head that my vision was blurry. After reading that the phone may not get root and the display disappointment, I'm strongly considering taking it back and keeping my S5.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] brentsalinas714:
Lay off the drugs! Screen is awsome for me
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Stigga:
Where did you see no root?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] holywhitebread:
Several threads here in the General section. For AT&T phones, anyway.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Stigga:
Anything post ATT release or the general old root talk
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] holywhitebread:
Towel Root was the only way to root and it is now owned by Google, so...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Stigga:
Oh snap I didn't know tgat
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] harlenm:
If you compared it to a GS5 you wouldn't think the same. GS5 screen is best I've ever used.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] ghostfaceg35:
Have you tried changing the screen mode options?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] harlenm:
Yeah, doesn't do anything except change the colors slightly. The more I'm using the phone the more I get used to it. I really hated the S5, so I'm not going back to it(the bluetooth wouldn't work properly with my car).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] WizeGuyDezignz:
My S5 is right next to me displaying the same images and text and I have to disagree with you. Everything is just as sharp or sharper on my Note 4 screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] BarryH_GEG:
^^^^^

This.

At the PPI we're talking about for all three phones (Note 3, SGS5, Note 4) unless you have better than 20/20 vision and/or are holding the device less than 10" away differences in sharpness wouldn't be detectable. Difference in display quality yes. It's about visual acuity which is the lowest common denominator.

As for the Note 4<>Note 3, the display seems "better." What better means to me (which is purely subjective) is it's brighter on the same setting I previously used, it seems crisper, and the colors seem more realistic.

Subjectively, based on your tastes, sure, why not. Objectively, not so much...

Our detailed Lab tests show that there have been significant display performance improvements in the new Note models [4 & Edge] including higher resolution, higher absolute color accuracy with better calibration, higher peak brightness with improved screen visibility and readability in high ambient light, and higher display power efficiency, resulting in a number of new records for Smartphone display performance.

What is particularly significant and impressive is that Samsung has been systematically improving OLED display performance twice a year with each Galaxy generation since 2010. With the Galaxy Note 4 there are many significant improvements over the Galaxy Note 3 that we tested a year ago, but also with the Galaxy S5 that we tested in March, and Galaxy Tab S that we tested in June. The most impressive improvements for the Galaxy Note 4 are in the pixels per inch and resolution, the Absolute Color Accuracy, Peak Brightness and screen viewability in High Ambient Light, and display Power Efficiency, which we discuss in turn below.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] harlenm:
Here is a side by side. Maybe it's just because everything is bigger that it looks slightly blurry to me.

Not sure how good this will look.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] BarryH_GEG:
The only thing that matters is how

you

think it looks. Like so many subjective things discussed on XDA (lag, battery life, overheating, build quality, AOSP vs. overlay) if you're looking for consensus it ain't gonna happen. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] harlenm:
I was referring to how the picture came out.

Edit, because it was taken with a crappy iPhone 6.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] browniegirl:
On my screen some apps makes the whole screen color go 10shades higher, if you catch my drift. Is anyone else having that issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] WizeGuyDezignz:
What do you mean? While you are outside in sunlight?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] zanson:
-----EDIT-----

Figured it out, and updating the first post to help other out.

Seems I have found an answer from the s5... Long pressing the app switch butting gets you the menu in any app.

----Original Post----

So, after only a few hours of use i have found a very big issue.

No menu button means some apps are useless.

I cant even reply to topics from the XDA app, and cant change setting from others apps expecting to have a menu button on the phone. What was Samsung thinking?

I may need to return this phone if i cant find a solution. Anyone have any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] zanson:
Seems I have found an answer from the s5... Long pressing the app switch butting gets you the menu.

Such odd functionality.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] matrix2004:
What is the app switching button?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Tikerz:
The one to the left of the home button.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Dr. Evo:
I don' mean no harm, but there's absolutely NO excuse for a Note 4 owner and someone who went out of their way to become an XDA member, to be so ignorant when it comes to something this simple. I don't even have my Note 4, yet, and I could school you up and down on it. There's dozens of videos online at your disposal, to tell you what features are found on your phone. Just looking at any one of them ... and as already mentioned ... you would have found out that long-pressing the recent apps button activates the menu. It's really quite simple.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Cboss:
Or tap the 3 dots at top right ...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] carmaruti:
You just saved me lot of pain thank you I was beyond frustrated
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] zanson:
A lot of apps don't have the top 3 dots menu
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] zeusof0lympus:
If you long hold the app switching button, you get the menu. Take a little getting used to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] ryudosama:
Hold the button for recent apps down for a few seconds. The functionality is still there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] 06SilveradoZ71:
I figured this out right after i picked up my phone
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] xlr8shun:
I know you found a way for your options button, but also if you want to reply in the xda app, just tap on the post you want to reply to, a menu pops up
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] nyydynasty:
wow, a little harsh.

There are a lot of people who are coming from a device that did not have the recent apps button and is not aware that you can long press it to get the menu button...especially on a device that has only been out for a day or so.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] zanson:
Just ignore him man, not even worth feeding his immaturity.

Anyways, Thanks for the tip about the xda app as well.

Hope this thread helps others that are having that WTF moment when they first get the phone... You know, i cant remember but i don't think that first pop up tip says anything about long pressing for a menu. I could be wrong and have just hit ok after reading the title.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] boufa:
Don't sweat the little stuff... I asked a while ago about getting air command to pop up. Once you are used to a device that is very, very close to the device you just bought... well, you may not realize the little changes. In my case the older Note I had you held the button on the s-pen while hovering to bring up the air command menu. On the Note 4 all you have to do is hover then click (not hold). Stumped me for over an hour.. until I posted and asked.

Coming from an iPhone forces people to do more reading and learn everything.
[General Questions and Answers] chili81:
I setup my phone (Gnexus CM10.2.1 Verizon) as wifi access point and have a tablet and rasberry pi connected to it. I can reach the pi from the tablet (ping, ssh, http) using the explicit IP.

I can't, however, reach either the table or the pi from the phone though. Again, trying http and ping off a terminal - using the IP address explicitly.

Should this be possible, or am I missing the point?

FWIW, this is a Galaxy Nexus on CM10.2.1 on Verizon. Have a headless rasberry pi running XBMC, trying to control it with Yatse running on my phone. Best I've been able to do control it from a tablet that's also tethered to the phone. Would like to cut out the middle man.

Hello guys I personally believe the body glove satin case is the best case design for the note 4. It's very good looking and will get you plenty of compliments. I have the black one for my white note 4.. Also I have the spigen neo hybrid and it's ugly and thick. The body glove satin case is as slim as the note 4 but offers protection and a luxurious design. Check it out here....http://www.bodyglovemobile.com/styles/slim-series/....ps you have to see it in person to know how nice it is...pictures don't do it justice....it also keeps your standard volume keys without covering it up, also the heart rate monitor is fully accessible with this case and even the power button is not covered.....keeps the note 4 looking fancy

[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] p()()pypants:
I just got the Samsung protective cover. Great color(s) and can't wait for red. Slim fitting but still adequate in the most necessary of areas. I'm happy... especially cause I got em both for the price of one.

Sold my neo hybrid. Much bigger than looks in pictures, uncomfortable to hold one handed, can't use the heart rate sensor and not all that grippy for a mostly tpu case.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Kawaisa:
You literally have to be in the 1% to spend $250 on a case, or you just REALLY like the look, which I doubt would be the case since it doesn't look that special to begin with. It doesn't even make you breakfast.

I was wondering what type of speeds everybody was getting and whether they noticed worse or improved cell coverage. These are a few speedtests I ran in my area while I was out.

Is band 2 faster than band 4? Is it one or the other or does the phone pair them together?

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nycdarkness:
I have owned every note from 1-3. My note 3 i replaced so many parts on since it suffered a lot of dropping abuse on my end and ironically the first phone I decided to go caseless on. I am quite the android fanboy to say but I have also owned every iphone to toy around with. My note 3 died around the time the iphone 6 came out. I decided to rock a 6 plus till the note 4 came out. At first I was just totally frustrated by all of ios short comings and restrictions. Coming from a noted and highly customized note 3, it was a total pain in the ass. In the past 2-3 weeks I have however developed quite a liking toward my 6 plus, while eagerly waiting the note 4 release. I played with the note 4 several times at best buy and was about to buy one out of contract today from someone who preordered. I do not have upgrade available atm, my next upgrade would be in about 40 days or so. I could get a note 4 for 600 flat tomorrow new off contract which isn't bad considering upgrading thru sprint is 400 with activation and taxes. Now I am heavily considering if the note 4 is worth switching to. I have to admit I was not a heavy s pen user and multi window I used rarely. My 6 plus has battery life that I have never experienced on a smart phone since this one really really odd note 2 ( i had the note 2 in both colors and on 2 diff carriers)that I had that seem to last forever. My question is do you guys feel I should wait and hold out for the note edge? While I am highly attracted to the note 4, the edge is really captured me when the two phones were announced. Anyone else making the move from a 6+?

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dasin:
I just bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab S ATT LTE, I just give up my iPad for the this device.

I'am trying to use the device for tethering, and I believe I need root access to do it with all the hassle, so is there a root for this device.

Also it seems when I try to use OPENvpn on the device it tends to drop the connection, and this has been a issue for me, for all Android devices I have, is there something I have to do to the APN in order to get this to work right.

Please let me know thanks.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dasin:
So is it best that i just return the Tablet to the ATT Store because there wont be a root for it?

OR

IS there a chance that there would be a root out for this device.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Heres the thread for the root for the 8.4 wifi and only lte st705. The att model is t705A i think. So theres no root for att. I have not see any developnent for att rooting of the tab s so it may be a while for root on this device. The only way to get root is by I guess finding a 705 lte model or a wifi model. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2805366 thats the thread for the 705 and wifi version of the root so theres no att root. If you want you can try to get a different tab like the tab note or the tab pros. I suggest you checking any other lte tabs that have root for your carrier/model if you want to get another tab.

One day, I realized that outgoing MMS, Data Profile update, and PRL update all broke at once. I tried every trick in the book, and the only thing that fixed it was a full wipe and fresh install.
