Idk if you read any of my earlier posts or not...but I've dealt with so many people that have had issues with tb since 4.2.2 I pulled it from my builds and quit recommending it...my thinking is why take the time and hassle to flash a rom for an improved experience or beneficial upgrade from stock to turn around and restore in old data which is essentially a dirty flash in a round about way lol..it was different back in the day on 4.1.2 when tb worked relatively clean and efficient without patches or hack jobs to keep from soft bricking the system during restore, but the system and sub files controllers and databases were also much simpler then...idk I have the same take on flashing...clean flash clean setup. ..whatever avoids compilations is best. ..its never in one's best interest to keep chasing their tale after issues arise lol

And def awesome man I'm glad you're enjoying it and decided to come hang out in the thread...what's your Setup looking like...im trying to change up from my goto beach theme lol

It sucks because those apps were intended for power users to be able to quickly get their devices up and running and what happened was that the average user saw that they could backup their applications and put them back no problem. In reality it impacts the system more than the Play Store description lets on and it should be marketed to power users rather than just someone who wants to backup their SMS messages. It would keep the devs from experiencing questions that there is no way they can explain, like why their system is stable while their users are seeing app crashes.

Wifi problem?

Anyone having a wifi problem where the toast notification says you're connected to wifi A but when you go into the settings it shows you connected to wifi B? Am I the only one? This really sucks lol
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Lol I believe you are flying solo with this one...wifi working fine for me bro at home, uni, friends house ect no issues

Did you flash on the proper base...typically wifi issues are only caused by flashing on the wrong base/bootloader with kk...? did you flash anj7 first like op says?

So I keep my setup as minimal as possible. I'm running Nova, all animations off, Material dark keyboard and wallpaper, Aurora UI icons, Amplify with Xposed to keep Play Services in check, and "OK Google" everywhere in the build.

I'm all caught up in the Material design hype and I am really excited for us to get a release of it from Samsung. Touchwiz or not, we were getting better battery than the Nexus 6 and if they rebuild it to work with project Volta, well, this is very exciting time for Note 4 owners.

I'm tired of being out of thanks for the day. The deck shot looks really good and I imagine it was you shooting on your custom ROM? I have to say that I don't take many pictures, but that 16MP looks really good. Almost makes me want to actually take pictures with it and not just Google things when I'm out and about.

Edit: Lol I can't run prime animations that fast. The only one I have set to "faster than light" is animation speed. I like my apps menu to open up instantaneously. I have to keep scroll speed at Nova level though. Otherwise just like you I hit things I didn't want to open :D

Lol thanks alot man welcome to thread and the n4...flashlight? Hmm you know I have absolutely no idea actually lol It never crossed my mind. I def didn't enable the hidden one...i dont think I have in any of my roms for any of the devices I've built for lol...ive never used one myself...but I'm sure there has to be one somewhere there's a flash...but you're prolly better off simply downloading an app to do it imo

re: ported note edge

I have a hunch that sooner or later some of the developers will figure

out a way to port the "curved" additional display on our Note 4 devices.

Of course we will never have a curved screen like the Note Edge, but I

think the feature itself can be ported & function in a very similar matter

on our flat screens.

It will however make our screen a little narrower just like the Note Edge's

screen does.

Just some food for thought!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] asaqwert:
So just to confirm, but it looks to be so judging by what Force70 said, but this rom works on the Canadian variants, right?

I tried out Darthstalker, but I'm having a lot of lag and it's just not what I thought it would be. Stumbled across this and it looks really good, want to give it a try.

Since I already had darthstalker on it, I'm in the process of downloading the stock Bell NJ3 rom to flash back to it - is that really necessary, or can I just download FireKat V4, do a wipe, and install FKV4 onto the phone?

Sorry if this is a bit newbish, but it's kind of new to me to have to have a certain base rom before I flash a new rom - I thought that the new rom would overwrite everything important anyways (didn't it used to? or was it just not important on, say, the note 3? I never had an issue on the note 3, though i'll admit I kind of lost interest in flashing once I got a rom on it that was did everything I wanted....)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Misterjunky:
re: Canadian variants

What I would suggest to do first before flashing this rom or any other N910T

rom is to open the rom zip file and remove the boot.img (the kernel) before

you flash.

That way you will keep your existing kernel which performs properly

with your phone instead of allowing the N910T's Tmobile kernel to

over-write your good working kernel.

Kernels are very carrier specific and can cause a lot of issues.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] asaqwert:
Hmm... so that wouldn't cause a problem with the install? It's not going to be looking for the kernel?

Could I just flash the rom as is, then flash the ktoonz kernel afterwards before restarting? I know the ktoonz kernel works, so I would think that would work, no?

Also, what is the reason for "needing" the proper NJ7 (or canadian NJ3) base before flashing the rom? Is it simply that the kernel this rom uses is the NJ7/NJ3 kernel? And it doesn't flash the entire kernel over or something? Kind of confused on that... just seems kind of odd. If the kernel file exists, and you're suggesting to pull it to ensure it works with the kernel I have, then I don't see why the proper base is important?

forgive my ignorance, i'm certainly no dev, and I have mad respect for these dev's and for you guys that know how all this stuff really works (not like someone like me, who can basically follow instructions and maybe troubleshoot some basic stuff....)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Rinthe:
evening everybody! how's this battery life? :p 4 hours on screen time
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] asaqwert:
another question - fingerprint scanner.....

i didn't even remember this thing HAD a scanner! so I rooted and immediately installed a rom, then stumbled across the fingerprint option for the lock screen. it comes up with an error whenever i try to enable it. i assume I have to go back to the stock rom and disable fingerprint scanning or something before flashing? I assume it must have done something to it when i flashed (assuming it was enabled from the factory?).

kind of poopy, wanted to try the scanner out now that i found out i have it!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Misterjunky:
The only way it would be a problem is if you flashed without any kernel at all

or flashed using other than your stock good working kernel.

As I said before, if you remove the boot.img from the zip file rom using

winrar or winzip your existing kernel will be the one which the rom uses

since it will not be over-written by a different kernel.

For the time being it's best to use the original stock kernel which you already

have, once you get the rom working to your liking then you can experiment with

custom kernels.

The problem with flashing a rom without the proper kernel or the wrong kernel

is that the phone most likely will go into a bootloop or getting stuck on the

startup screen. You can always flash custom kernels after you know that

whatever rom you flash is working properly to start with.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] asaqwert:
problem there is, i've already flashed the ktoonz kernel :P i figured, hey, what the hell, might as well give er a go, since others have said it worked on their canadian phones. it worked for me just fine.

I think i'm going to give it a go, see what happens. worst case, in 32 minutes the stock rom will be done downloading and i'll go back to that :P

edit:

just tried it - i flashed FKV4 then the umbrella dude's kernel, starkiss or something. seems to be working, booting up and going through all my apps (401 apps?? wtf... stupid google, i think it installed ALL of the apps I've ever downloaded, as some of the ones that showed up I haven't seen since I was on an HTC maple, the first phone I ever flashed with android I think....)

anyways, will report back if there is an issue, but this was certainly not using the proper base, i don't think..... hehehe.... i won't come whining back if it didn't work, but i'll let y'all know
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
But what benefit would that give us? Its basically a second home row of app icons? I don't doubt it could I just don't see the benefit personally...but he's asking about a firekat build for the note edge

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] asaqwert:
well, it seems to have worked, i'm in and it's running....

still no fingerprint scanner - any advice here? should I go back to the factory rom and do something there, then go back to fk from there?

kinda has me worried that it ain't working..... hope i didn't fubar something
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Misterjunky:
re: kernels

Perhaps that's the reason your phone is lagging with whatever rom you were

using, it's always best to start out stock and make sure you have no lag issues

or any other issues before flashing kernels.

You can also simply copy your stock kernel into the N910T zip file rom

before flashing which will over-write and replace the Tmobile kernel.

(boot.img).
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Just go back and read the other posts...the fingerprint issues been covered to death. ..not to mention your flashing this using whatever random method of mix and match you came up with lol so I'm not gonna start chasing my tail to catch where you went wrong until you sort your system base and kernel lol

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] asaqwert:
hmmm ok cool, well, i'll play around with that once i have the stock rom downloaded

any ideas on the FP scanner? gonna probably try to go back to stock once this is finished downloading, but would be nice not to have to bother if there is a fix you can think of...

---------- Post added at 12:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:54 AM ----------

fair enough.... i'll post back when I have factory back, and follow the instructions better :P

i've tried looking up the FP issue though, and i didn't really find much actually useful. some people say to set it up in stock before flashing, others say to clear all fingerprints before flashing.... seems like either people aren't writing down what they've actually done, it doesn't matter what they've actually done, or i'm just bad at reading what they've done :P

Oh I noticed that busybox was built into v4. what is that for? I can't uninstall it either.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
How is it for you??...what anyone else thinks is pretty much irrelevant as everyone's setup and use is different lol seems fine to me

Do not uninstall busybox as there are integral components in the init.d system hack, plus it's essential to Viper4Android on kk, and some other mods and kernel/system interactions

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Dude you could have at least read my op where i specifically addressed the fingerprint scanner issue before posting like you cant find valid information...you only had to scroll right past the instructions and info to get to the link...the fact that your system is so mixed up is probably the reason you have any issues just flash your stock back and follow forces method we discussed the other day. ..that you mentioned in the previous post...

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AlkaliV2:
Mega, I have a quick test for you to run when you have time, I'm looking to duplicate an issue. Things you'll need:

1.) Your favorite headphones

2.) Viper4Android (any level driver installed, headset enabled, Playback Gain AGC enabled, effect strength up to you)

3.) Some form of instrumental music (I used Moonlight Sonata, but your choice of course)

Using Viper4Android I'm hearing an excessive amount of white noise over instrumental music with Viper4Android. I wanted to see if this is hardware related on my device or if you can hear the audio hiss as well. If you can hear it, then likely it is because of the audio mods included in the ROM which I am totally good with. On the other hand, if you can't hear it, then I might have to return my device because my audio chipset could be messed up. Just let me know, I'm hoping it is just the included audio mods. As soon as my thanks embargo is lifted by XDA I'll be dropping another set of mad thanks on this thread.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] asaqwert:
Sorry man, must have missed that somehow! Just did a search and was going thru the whole thread looking for what ppl talked about

Sorry, totally my mistake.

Will be flashing from stock, reading the WHOLE op, then following it to a T.

Will let you know how it works (tho I have a seeking suspicion that my post will go something like : man it wored awesome you rock)

Thanks for putting up with me ;)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
I can already tell you cuz I literally use this every single day...no...and I play it not only thru headphones but thru my car using an aux jack...no there are no "mods" for the volume dude I simply turned the native system gain in audio controller up. ..completely stock man...mine sounds phenomenal you can even look back at the posts I made the night I flashed v4 and tested it in my car...

Always using viper with xtreme settings...and eq rolling off low end...just make sure you're not over driving thr headphones into the red of the volume meter or that could be it...turn down the phone volume and turn up the second source volume like car stereo...or try other headphones but honestly my n4 on v4 sounds far better than any system I've ever had...including my bose system...The audio quality is astounding honestly and it's coming from a musician

The only time I ever hear white noise is either bad audio quality...meaning mp3 was low bit rate ect...bad recording/conversion ect...classic stuff that would cause any song to sound bad....but those are like my live shows or gigs recorded by gfs on tape converted ect....and that's only slightly louder because it's louder and my eq...so understanding that...if "normal music" commercial songs play well. ..check the songs themselves

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
I added a bit at the end tho that's important as well...increased volume wouldn't introduce any artifacts in the audio rather just amplify any existing hiss in a recording...I deal with digital audio issues all thr time when recording on my pro tools gear...so I'd say test headphones, test a new download of a given song in better quality, test other songs and really listen they should sound incredible even on samsung headphones, and test a turning sound effects back to sound alive in sound settings...if it's your note/hw/fw then the sound will always have white noise if it's a specific issue with xyz you'll pinpoint it....my guess your hearing a bad song mp3 quality not your note just guessing

Mega

For instance I'm a huge beatles beach boys Clapton ect 60s fan...well some original mp3 I got off Napster 15 years ago or whatever sound like crap and have hiss and gain and all kinds of crap whereas a new rip of a remastered beatles track on mp3 sounds like Eva Mendes and Eva Longoria are making out in my ears lmao...heaven lmao... so don't get bummed out if a few tunes sound bad as in my 9500 song collection 1/3 are 40s 50s and 60s thst def bring out all the flaws on hd audio setuos...as that's more likely the source material than your kit
