tethering

So im guessing v3 doesnt have unlimted tethering ? i heard early in the forum it was suppose to be bake in but havent heard of anyone respond to it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] iunlock:
Dev is perfecting the ROM first before adding all the bells and whistles. He takes a different approach with his ROM builds. It'll more likely be in v4, but although it's not baked in, you can use WiFi tether router which works flawlessly.

Easier than retyping lol

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
So what theme did you end up with? And what launcher have you been using...i cant decide between tw and nova on v3 lol want tw speed and smoothness but nova big icons lol

I need to find that 5x5 launcher and throw it in op2

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] texasoscar1:
thanks for letting me know, i will just have to be patient:D, your rom is the best out in my opinion no need to try a different rom. Keep it up!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] iunlock:
I'm just using TW and really really am enjoying it. I was using nova on v1, but after that going to v2, I've kept it on TW.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
I'll put it in for sure when I start adding bit and pieces now that I got all the 4.4.4 kinks ironed out

Yea man i have to say my first time ever running tw because it was faster than nova lol usually I liked the look theme and layout but it's running like silk lol

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] iunlock:
It is truly silk and I haven't even finished greenifing!

Thanks Mega :) what about the "light screen effect on lock screen" mod I can't seem to figure it out after setting it up :S ?

You're both right from what I understand. You have to Odin back to kk. Then you root, factory reset, then a backup from kk will take.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Well yea...but once your back on kk a backup is just a backup at that point you know what I mean...? That's not exactly downgrading you from lp...

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Once you set that effect =1 it's just the unlock effect when you use stock lock screen

Ha! I'm using the lg optimus lockscreen replacement recommended by your truly do that explains everything! :p

Sent from my FireKat v11X using Xparent Blue Tapatalk
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] RaymondPJR:
Don't follow. You downgrade back to kk with Odin. Then if you don't want to set everything up again you can restore a stable already set up back-up you made previously.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
What part don't you follow dude? They are not the same...downgrading via Odin and restoring a backup are two different things...you can't downgrade via a backup in Twrp....of course if your on kk you can restore a kk backup...that's no different than restoring one having never updated that's...has nothing to do with downgrading whatsoever...it's like saying now that I'm on lollipop I can restore poprocks backups...see what I'm saying...it doesn't make sense to equate one with the other as the process of the restore in Twrp has nothing to do with updating or downgrading

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea once your using the LG it has a list of its own effects built in...settings.db mods will only affect stock lock screen

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Face_Plant:
I kinda doubt Sammy will give us that feature because it'd be one less reason to buy the S6. PopRocks was nice and all, but I love Xposed too much. I'm very happy sticking with v11x until Lollipop comes up with something that totally blows me away.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Tbh the only thing it was even meant to do was a new theme and a lot of security...and little speed boost to the animation and system...but even pushing out the highest benchmarks I've ever seen I can't say that marginally speed boost will offer those content on kk anything they're not seeing in V1/Def v2 imo...as the roms are too similar...lp and kk are almost identical...it's like having 2 ferraris....

One is plain black...which is gorgeous sure it's a Ferrari..fast elegant...but when the other comes with a custom paint job and one of a kind interior customized anyway you want....its a hard offer to pass up even if you'd gain like 10 hp in the standard black one...I'm personally enjoying pr for the speed and Camera...but can't say I'm not already tired of youtube ads, browser ads, missing apps in mw, and missing my theme...

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ar2o:
Damn Mega, I have been really resisting the itch from flashing v2 now that the efficiency optimization is in, but when you bring up the ads in YouTube/browser, missing theming and I am not quite sure what missing apps in mw is, I have no idea what to do!:eek: as Shakespeare would say:

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea I'm just being honest...like I just posted that 31k quadrant which is by far the highest I've ever seen...but that extra speed doesn't do much from an already extremely fast build...and the amazing camera is great but I just left what was already the best camera I'd ever used on kk...and for every little thing it's pretty marginal...so I've really enjoyed PopRocks but I can't say there's gonna be a bombshell reason to give up kk xposed mods ad blocks and wanam 7 8 9 battery lives ect for lt

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Face_Plant:
I'm sure we'll see some S6 ports eventually. Now that we have Lollipop it should be easier to port. There's a ROM in this forum that has the S6 theme engine built in, but I don't think it's 100% functional yet.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
I already checked out the S6 launcher on PopRocks...I didn't like it....it just doesn't look right imo and had a black bar instead of transparent status bar. ...plus the themes of it are terrible that I've seen...the stock samsung s6 ones...

Imo s6 icon set in Nova or apex or galaxy launcher looks better and has more options imo

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Lol you'll keep waiting until you pm me for it lmao

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mutantblack:
lol let me send you a pm. :) Only when you have time of cuz.

Mega, may be I didn't search enough. After I installed xposed, my s health keeps popping unlock and doesn't count steps anymore. I found online to change a line in build.prop. Safe to try I suppose?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
I think there's some Xposed mod for it...that patches it...I forget exactly as that was all the way back around v1/v2 that people were talking about it

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ar2o:
So much hype about it on the PopRocks thread tho! Ugh! I only use xposed for the youtube AdAway, crappalinks, and wanam. I guess if I can still use all the firekat custom themes and widgets then I can live to test It all out for a bit. Also I posted a summary if v1 earlier just from gathering the information in the threa and I'm wondering if I was close to being on point with the Screen on time and standby time (3.5-4 hrs/25-30 hrs all on Max brightness, LTE and all settings enabled)? I was just trying to gather some info to reference back to if people are on the curb between trying PopRocks in place of FireKat v11X :)

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea that was right and prettt accurate...but v2 just flipped everything on end....I had the highest benchmarks ever last night....and only lost 1% in 10 hours overnight...still at 59%...1 hr 40 mins hours screen on time...running nearly as cool as v11x is....so v2 is def gonna settle in and be far more efficient than v1 was even if it's somewhat faster...I think the hype for pr is just the speed and fluidity of it which is really fun I won't lie and maybe the stability given lp Idk....ime it's been a blast to just play with my n4 again on poprocks...that said....

like I have been saying for more than a year trying to temper the hype...lollipop itself is a very minimal refinement over kk...the theme being the biggest change....so when looking for something to point to and be like welp totally worth it...there really just won't be that if you're not a big fan of the new theme stuff and the performance of pr...that's really the only thing you're lookin at...the camera is good on both ect so yea imo there's not gonna be a decision making thing to point to if you're not seeing it now

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
So I'm curious for those who've gone and run poprocks and come back....what's your experience/comparisons? What would you reco? I know there's prolly more people in ar2o shoes than have actually decided and I'm sure it be beneficial...I'm curious as well for sure

PopRocks pros:

- Lightening fast

- Instant response from the recent apps key

- Comparable battery life to V11X

- Most of the theme and animations are cool

- Good benchmark scores if you're in to that kind of stuff

PopRocks cons:

- No Xposed

- Some apps still have issues on lollipop

- My signal was worse with the OD6 modem

- Some mods from KitKat don't work on Lollipop (example: can't enable hidden air gesture stuff. The toggle shows up but it doesn't work)

- Some people may not like the colors

FireKat V11X pros:

- Everything

FireKat V11X cons:

- None

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ar2o:
Mega I've been meaning to ask,

after a clean flash of PopRocks or FireKat, do you think it might be a good idea to skip op2 optmizations and let the cl device settle in for the 3-4 full charge cycles and then do the full run down of op2, or maybe follow OP2 except omitting greenify until the device settles and then move in with the greenify to tweak the set up? or is that absolutely pointless? Just curious :p

Sent from my FireKat v11X using Xparent Blue Tapatalk
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
I mean really the only thing it would do is show you how much your apps actually drain...there's little benefit or info from feedback really...I'd greenify....and poprocks op2 is different than FireKat...no setcpu or mcc...so def follow the instructions for pr if you go...but I personally so those every flash in that order

I'm going to download FK this week and install this weekend. Is there any intent on debloating the rom a bit more? Maybe a VXX version? Cannot stand some of the Google bloat and other things like the ant junk installed. Freezing doesn't do it for me. I prefer to uninstall it but not sure how it's tied up to the system.

Does the music still play if the camera is open? I know it usually shuts music off but was reading some roms allowed it to keep playing.

I'm not sure I'll jump to lolli unless xposed or some other substitute pops up. Seems this is more Samsung at fault than anything else grrr I'm hoping that xposed works on the Note 5 and others. If not, maybe someone can figure our a way to downgrade to kk lol

Thought this was cool. Found on another thread.

Then go to /system/usr/keylayout

Modify file Generic.kl

Look for "Key 254"

Change it to Menu, Save, exit, and reboot.

Hate the physical recent key. Using smart task launcher to bring the recent menu up at normal speeds.

I'll have to look at it. I'm fascinated that Samsung even had the common sense to offer themes. The Avengers theme I saw online before that phone was released was awesome! Not all that impressed with the S6 however. It could have been thicker to hold a larger battery, and Samsung could have put in an SD card slot if they had wanted to. The regular S6 is nothing special in looks, but surprisingly the edge looks way better.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] champoi:
I really want to do some research about this whole SD issue because according to Samsung, they HAD to take it out to get faster read/write speeds so the system doesn't even look for a SD card and slow things down. And apparently they're using a new flash drive that's better. I'm more curious because if it is marginally faster, and sales see high for the S6, then that's a preview of the Note 5. I'm personally at a point where sd cards are a moot point but I know lots of folks still clamor for them. 64 gb internal and I'm gravy.

And as a side note, for the past two weeks something weird has been happening to my screen. I have auto brightness on, usually the slider in the middle. When it gets in a low light settings, not only does it get dimmer, but the screen has a weird reddish glow come over it. For a while, it would slowly wash over the screen and then go back to just being dim but now it stays that way until I get back to REGUALR lighting or turning off auto brightness. I have the Adaptive color scheme on, never changed it from before.... Is there a sensor off on mine or what? Lol and I was thinking of downloading Chainfire's Lux app too.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea it's been really fast...I guess what I'm wondering is...does that little bit of speed offset losing 8 hour screen on times and similar real world performance....for giving up every single mod and tool we have? That's where I still really have a hard time imagining staying on it long term without those tools for a lot of people no matter how fast or how efficient I can push pr....that's why there will be a fkv13x

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea but you're conflating the idea that internal storage of any size or speed can replace popping out a card...sliding it into new device xyz...and you're done...no transferring massive files...no going without your favorite gear...no arbitrarily filling up your finite storage with your old gear...that stuff doesn't just get tacked on for free...I have 30gb on my SD....of stuff I use contantly...1000s of songs I play daily. ...1000s of photos....apk backups ect....my 9gb twrp backups and 1.5 gb roms ect....now aside from easy storage...swapping....and security...It's convienance as the internal will never be upgraded or improved where SD in unlimted...and sure while I guarantee people could adjust given the option of a note 5 without SD and another similar device with it...I personally will stick with the removable battery and SD manufacturer as hw and even the skins are becoming irrelevant for the performance and many features...so they can take the gamble sure but I they better know the difference between the causal s user and the die hard note fans or samsung is screwed imo

Ugh do you guys want to know the recipe for feeling really really really awful? Try mixing a killer hangover with the flu, poison ivy, and a monster sun burn.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] champoi:
No no, I def understand the appeal for a SD card. I'm just wondering if their claims of increased speeds are true or are just a slick way to make it profits on a selling higher gig configurations. I happen to be on a unlimited data plan where I have never gotten throttled. I never thought I would use all these different cloud solutions like I do, but I do and it's super convenient. Now, again, I get it, not everyone is even close to my situation or would want to depend on a cloud solution for various reasons (security, reliable internet) but it's doable.

I don't travel that much either, so again, the whole swapping out the battery thing never was a thing for me, though the appeal is obvious. I think it'll be interesting how this year plays out for sure either way. People were lamenting about the s6 losing the water proofing which isn't true, it lost water resistance which is a HUGE difference, but I still can understand cause it would have been nicer if they stepped up the S6 and gave it the water proofing. It's all about the sales of the S6. If it's high enough, the Note series might follow and as long as those sales are high enough, they won't think twice about adding them back, sadly. It's all about profits at the end of the day.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mutantblack:
I was on Note 3 and trying to hold out for Note 5 upgrade until I saw the S6. I am sure samsung will follow Note 5 with S6 style built since S6 sold the best according to some of the websites. I rushed and bought me Note 4. I want replaceable battery and SD no matter what. As nice as S6 looks and some few added features, drawbacks are just not worth it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea I mean I guess I understand why they would choose to remove the kit...but it was a mistake imo...as has they included at least the sd slot..they would've avoided a massive amount of backlash....removable battery I'm less worried about except for the tiny size of s6...if they pull that on n5 that just will not go over well imo
