I gotta stop tinkering and rebooting the phone so I can see how far I can go with this ROM lol
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] FormeriPhoney:
Stock kernel

Brightness was 25% indoors and 100% while outdoors.

No cpu app, just greenify mimicking the op#2 settings.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mattkroeder:
Just curious. Can the T-Mobile version be installed on N910W8 as long as a custom kernel is used?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] sharp2G:
Read the first page. There's a Canadian version for this ROM.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mattkroeder:
Yes, I realize that. I should have clarified that I wanted to try the T-Mobile version anyway.

I had an issue with the Canadian version that apparently doesn't happen with the T-Mobile version so I was curious.

from my note 3...like I was trying to say last time man...Idk what a rom or browser would have to do with anandtech/forum rendering? But that little highlight or whatever bit your asking about is on all my stuff as well...this happens all the time randomly on websites I think it's just when or if you notice as it happens to occur cuz I get it on several sites that aren't even forums...but it's not exactly something I'm worried about or think twice about tbh and rarely ever even notice

Edit: I even tried this on my mac book pro and my dev pc...same deal on their browsers...Idk man maybe it's just random but It doesn't affect anything one way or the other...your more than welcome to flash fk and the whole deal and hopefully somehow that'd help but If all else is running well i def wouldn't

Quick question..... with Greenify do you guys have it on Auto Hibernate or do you have the shortcut to manually Hibernate?

We can run any Tmo rom with a custom kernel yes.

I recommend AEL or Nadia.

v8 since that's the latest. Lol
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] -LBT-:
So why do people stick with older versions?

Tmo Note 4, FireKat V7 / Moto 360
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
They get it set up perfectly...and if it's running well and getting google battery life it may work for them...i know a couple guys on my n3 rom fk that have been ok the same setup for months at a time lol...that could just laziness tho haha

But tbh my roms are a little different cuz they're all tested and run perfectly well before you guys ever see them....so it'd not as if one was a buggy build they're using or something it's just a progression so that changes it a bit

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] -LBT-:
Exactly, they don't necessarily need to upgrade if it's working fine as it is.

Tmo Note 4, FireKat V7 / Moto 360
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
I actually use a little trick with greenify I'll let you guys in on to keep running full speed regardless what your doing...

Full disclosure It's by no means necessary in firekat for speed or battery...esp on n4 or n3 fk ect but an old habit from days of less powerful beasts that still works well and efficiently...somewhat pointless on fk n4 but if you have lesser power hw device laying around just doing this alone will def improve your experience. ..or say on stock n4 4.4.4

Run it as auto hibernate as usual...that's the best way imo as it only hibernate after screen sleepy for a while...but you can manually go in and hibernate an app or all apps manually just by tapping the zzz button bottom right...see screen...or clicking on of the pending apps and then hitting zzz...what this does is allow you to essentially be the ram/app contoller vs relying on the system...works best if you jump out of a game hibernate it and keep rockin that way your not carrying around all the data and garbage in the background while your just trying to text ect

Don't go overboard. ..no need to do this every other app lol...just use common sense and know it's an option

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] KRHairston:
Thanks guys for the help. I went ahead and put hibernate on auto but will use the widget button whenever I do not immediately screen off.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
I just got home and reread this and wanted to follow up so I didn't give anyone the wrong impression... on firekat n4 I probably maybe do this trick once or twice a day at best... this trick originated on n1 and I still use it constantly on my galaxy mega or when toyin with my old note 1 to keep things fast and fluid on these devices... you could do without completely on note 4... I mean don't get me wrong if you never do this trick you may never know the difference...on fkn4 the way I use it is just like if I open facebook then log off and keep using the phone... ill pull that trick to punt fb to hibernate so I'm not having to randomly run that crap in the background for no reason...or done with fifa close it out and hibernate it and keep posting or whatever...the same things the system would do/greenify would do anyway....so i didn't want it to seem like I pull this alot of my n4 by any means...and alot of thr time have no need...just wanted to make sure I clear that up as I hammered that out on break before lab lol

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mattkroeder:
I don't suppose there's a chance that the ANJ3 Canadian version may have a different default system font? That might explain it I suppose.

Either way, it's okay. You're right that I probably notice it a lot more because it happens on some other forums that I visit on on a daily basis so I'm always seeing it.

I've gone back to stock for the time being but I'll be more than happy to give the T-Mobile build or your next version a try when I get the chance. Thanks for your work.

wait you went back to stock for random links not bolding?...man knowing what links you've clicked must be insanely high on your list...

Fire time trying this ROM, looks awesome have been using Dark stalker for awhile now and my note 4 broke. Bought a new one came with the updated base band. With the new one have run CM12 but i prefer touchwiz. Getting a TWRP crash every time I flash this ROM. I'm doing exactly as posted, I'm re-downloading it just in case and going to see if it might be a small corruption.

Got it. Redownload did the trick.

I like the look of this one. I may be an odd ball, but on the previous post I like the third widget, the one with the 55% opacity. Yes the widget background looks a little muddied but the blending between the two backgrounds is more subtle.

Hey mega, I have been rocking this rom for 2 weeks now after trying a couple of others along with other kernels but this rom is the most stable/smooth/fast of them so far.

I was trying to do a nandroid using twrp but it gave me backup failed!! Tried dirty flashing the rom again gave me error. (error executing updater binary in zip).

Tried wiping cache and dalvik and also fixing permission but I get the same errors. The backup gets stuck when it starts backing up "system" (tried unchecking system in twrp and it worked)

When I rebooted it seemed that I kinda lost root as xposed kept giving me an error so I re-downloaded supersu and it worked.

I'm worried if I wiped the phone is would still get the same error and would end up stuck with no backup and without being able to reflash this rom.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
When you update supersu make sure you hit continue/normal not continue/twrp or else it'll punt root....also there's a few twrp versions which are you using?

No if you wipe or whatever and do a simple odin flash will restore everything to stock anyway...

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ahm.elghazaly:
I'm using latest 2.8.4.4 and supersu didn't give me any options. Is there a way to force supersu to update binary?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lazer9:
Which build to be on for V8 of this ROM: USA T-Mobile?

Ok, sorry for my ignorance. I have flashed many ROMS on prior devices. Currently I am awaiting shipment of the US T-Mobile Note 4 which I will be rooting and installing TWRP on and then be in search of a ROM to flash which has lead me to this particular ROM of most interest.

In the OP which I have tried to closely follow, it does say something about V6 of this ROM requiring one to first Oden to be on build ank4. I am assuming this applies if I want to flash the latest V8 also?

As mentioned, I am still awaiting my T-Mobile Note 4 and will check the build it is on accordingly. Any special things to note in the process regarding the "Rooting" - any special build requirement, installing of TWRP, ect... first? Assuming ank4 is the latest US T-Mobile build, should I simply take any OTA's to get to that or do I go to Samsung's site and find the T-Mobile ank4 build and flash it via Oden?

Sorry if this is obvious and I am missing something. I just like to be 100% on what I'm doing.

Thanks!

Edit: I guess I sort of answered part of my own question regarding "rootability" and which build is the latest via this thread: http://xdaforums.com/note-4-tmobile/general/easy-steps-stock-odin-n910tuvu1anih-cf-t2903733

That happened to me on my very first flash of Firekat! Odin flash got me up and running again! Was scary for a minute though, lol!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] force70:
Your device should be on NK4 when you get it unless Tmo snuck an update in lol

Check your device when you have it to be sure but your probably GTG.

then just root and recovery via odin and flash away once you backup the stock rom.

If your new phone comes with nk4, you're good to flash! I'd use the latest twrp since its available.

Sorry if it's a stupid question, but Odin flash what exactly?

Is there a way to just update binary through supersu? Is it easier if I just clean flash this rom again?

...dude not to be a jerk but if you don't know what odin is you should not be tinkering with your device. ..you should be reading and getting the tools to know what you're doing...esp on n4 as its far more intricate and necessary than ever...odin is a flashing tool but you need to educate yourself before coming into the dev section dude...at least the very basics so you know what to do in case of a jam...

This is way off topic, but have you ever messed with or used MIUI?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Th3Bill:
MIUI...been a while since I've messed around with that. I did some work on a number of devices for it back a ways ago. If we get a stable CM11, I'd probably give a stab at porting it over. Reason CM11, MIUI lollipop still plagued by issues from what I can gather, so last thing I'd want to do is try to port something buggy over...

Well that depends...if you mean as a theme? Yea some of my icons are miui based or inspired...arus icon set is very similar...as in like officially on a device...yes but only for about 10 mins...it was miui 3 or 4 I believe running on an oppo find 5 that my buddy had for a few weeks...it reminded me of a mix of ios and fun touch or color os combined

I'm on V8 now. I find that when you charge to 100% and reboot, it won't say 100% anymore, but like 95%-97%.

UPDATE: rebooted 4 times; each time the percentage only goes up by a single digit or so on every reboot - 1st reboot it was 96%; 2nd = 97; 3rd = 98; 4th = 100%. All while plugged in and charging.
