It took almost 3 hours to download and another 45 minutes to complete the installation. Everything seems to move a little faster now. They hid smart lock under security and trusted agents, which I thought was weird. I like it so far.

So has anyone been able to manually pull the download? I've been changing my date forward a day at a time and keep getting "there is no update available" BS...anyone else?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] icexshinigami:
now if only they listen to unlocked bootloaders...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] droe411:
I manually got the update earlier this morning. Changed the date up one day and there it was.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] VManiac16:
I'm in a similar predicament. I'm encrypted and the update failed after downloading. It did reboot multiple times and ask me for the PIN multiple times. No it says 21 hours until I can check for an update. Obviously, I could play the date game but I don't want to be stuck in the same boat I'm in now so I'd be interested in the correct approach.

What would happen if I leave the wifi coverage area? I'm guessing it would just stop ,but I still want to ask.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] dbdynsty25:
Well damn, I'm all the way up to April 15th and it never has worked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] stoobie-doo:
Well, this is interesting. I rolled the clock ahead a day and downloaded the update a second time. This time it took only 3 hours to download. Same behavior as before, once the update finished downloading, I was asked to enter in my PIN and the screen now shows that the update has been delayed and shows a time stamp for the notification of four hours after I had entered in the PIN. Phone is running as if nothing had happened, but with the notification. Of course since I'm not rooted, I can't pull the update file from the cache folder.

Guess I'll wait this time and see if behavior is any different. Next step would end up being to decrypt the phone and lose access to my work mail, see if the update will run, and then re-encrypt. Ugh. Hoping it doesn't come to that.

Ok - so I got antsy about the update, so I went to software updates and hit continue updates - I entered the device PIN again, and all it did was push out the time stamp of the notification. Which I have realized is the typical software update postponed delayed behavior, after three times going through PIN entering, it finally decided to start the attempt to update. We'll see whether round two goes any better than round one.

---------- Post added at 06:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:28 PM ----------

Update failed a second time - I saw it fail at 2%. No idea whether it is due to being encrypted or some other random reason. As before once I got back to the phone it is again saying "Install interrupted"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] abthegreat:
Upgraded without rebloating, does the adb method still work for blocking ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] spexwood:
I also just got the Update Interrupted error. I'm not encrypted, but I did use ADB to disable some system apps (including Knox). I'm redownloading right now, but will try again with everything reenabled.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] runsoverfrogs:
so this might be not a cheap solution, but being on tmobile with an att note 4, it wouldnt let me get the update.

i rolled over to walmart and picked up a 10 dollar sim kit, and activated it. i let the sim connect without doing a refill, which then i'm now able to update!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] WizeGuyDezignz:
I'm disappointed that it's not 6.0.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] iamStrykyr:
I really thought that a 5.0.1 ROM would have been on here by now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] thanitos:
Locked boot loader and no root, who's gonna make a rom for that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] iamStrykyr:
Samsung..released today.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] stoobie-doo:
Feh. If that had actually released a ROM instead of an OTA, all of us who have had Update Interrupted problems could have upgraded rather than waiting for the ROM to be at Best Buy to have them flash it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] cj00ta:
I probably hosed my own phone by disabling everything I could at the time.. But when I tap 'software update'... Nothing's happening...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] redphazon:
Anyone know if this update will be forced on users like the previous one? I'm asking because I'm on satellite with a cripplingly low bandwidth allowance cap and from what I've read this is a fairly large update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] thanitos:
It's 1gig, and eventually yes, but not anytime soon, especially if you block ota as described in the other thread
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] redphazon:
Ok, it's smaller than I thought. I'd still like to take care of it during off-peak hours where the cap's higher, though. I guess I'll have to block the OTA then. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] JIML410:
Thanks that worked without a problem. Living the lollipop
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Dr. Evo:
I have no idea what's going on with a lot of you people and this update downloading. I'm seeing people talking about it's taken them HOURS to download Lollipop. I kid you not when I say it took me less than FIVE (5) MINUTES to download this thing! I waited til around 10pm EDT to download, as I wanted more feedback from other users on the update, and I figured perhaps there wouldn't be as many people downloading. After the five minute download, the next step was the phone rebooting, then updating all of my nearly 220 apps so it would work with the update. That took about 15 minutes within itself, and after than everything was done! I'm on Android 5.0.1!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] svengalis:
if its that big of a deal just go someplace that offers free wifi and download the update there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] v3ngence:
AT&T just plays favorites with how much download speed they give you!

But after about 17 years of waiting I'm finally:

Hey guys, here's some exciting article regarding the Note 3 Android L release and specifically in terms of performances both benchmark and real world. That YouTube video of them displaying the real world performance is making me really excited for this coming to note 4 which I am sure will be very similar if not even better.

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/analysis-of-the-galaxy-note-3-android-5-0-leak/

Also there is too instances of an un-rooted, non-battery saver/greenified/wakelock detector etc Samsung S5 running the TW L rom having a 8 HOUR Screen on time with 20% battery left.

For those of us that used the bat file to block knox and apps, would we have to unblock everything before taking the Lollipop update?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] xlr8shun:
Im guessing you should probably clear data after updating.. so doesnt really matter. If you do decide not to clear data then.. well i guess we will have to wait and see.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] htowngator:
I would guess so.

Even Google is basically making OTA's not function if you don't have the exact software footprint they want when it launches.

Galaxy Note 4 Lollipop manual appears, update imminent - GSMArena.com news
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] stoobie-doo:
Looking over the manual, it's only for some of the European variants, and if that is the final version, it looks like from a UI perspective very little has changed.

And what were you expecting? UI-wise there are only few changes, but what's under the hood matters. :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] lyrical1278:
Thing I've noticed is these OEMs are rushing out 5.0 and then they'll go back and tailor their UIs to Material. Even HTC hasn't updated Sense but said they're working on Sense 7
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] WizeGuyDezignz:
Bingo. It has already been reported that the Galaxy S6 UI is gonna be very lollipop and Nexus-like in appearance and performance. It will just take a little time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] nyydynasty:
these guys are more concerned with getting their crap-ware working on lollipop before making it look better :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] ReggieSmith:
There have been a few issues with Lollipop discovered since it's release, right? Personally, I'm OK with the Note 4 as is, so if it takes a little extra time to hammer out some issues before release, I'm OK with that. Since any updates would have to go through the carrier certification process, I'd rather it be as sound as possible on initial release as opposed to them rushing it out and then having to wait on multiple updates to be approved and pushed to fix what they knew was broke.

Let's be honest, most people would rather have a good, stable release up front. Besides, haven't heard much else from those "root or die" threads, so that is a moot point...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] insang-droid:
I feel like carrier needs their "certification Process" because they're making unnecessary changes to the software and filling it with bloatware, which Apple probably doesn't allow carrier to do. But when you're sole maker of iPhone, you can demand whatever you want.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] ReggieSmith:
Well let's be fair... The OEMs have to have their time with the new releases as well, especially a major release, because they have to make sure all the bits and pieces still work as they are supposed to and then they typically add a little extra in.. It is only THEN that the carriers get it and they have to make sure that any apps that came with the phone still work.

From what I understand, Lollipop was an almost compete re-write of the code in an attempt to make it more modular. If this is true, at some point we can hope to get updates quicker because they can be sent independent of the other modules on the phone. That's where Google wants to go anyway. Doing that will quickly reduce the version fragmentation you see in Android.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] imnoob55:
I am sure it varies between the levels in the carriers. For app stuff, yeah they probably do not do much other than making sure aesthetics and performance meets their requirements + install their crapware (which I have heard is largely 3rd party and not specifically AT&T)

The lower level guys are ensuring there's been no issues in the modem firmware and such that would have issues with their network. The 3GPP requirements are extremely detailed and its largely software granted this is mostly qualified by the modem guys than anything but there's still likely a lot of qualification reviews.

Just in my experience anyhow ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Not a UE guy myself but I have worked on BTS systems (HNB protocol layers, physical layer, core network protocol layers) that have their own host of 3GPP requirements.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] davidstech11:
If your going to compare Apple pushing updates then at least compare what's more like it. Google pushing updates to Nexus devcies. If I want updates fast I would just get Nexus or Google Play Edition. With those I know for sure I don't have to wait way longer than necessary.

I knew this before buying by Note 4 but still got it. And I'm fine with that. I want the update but want the features and options the Note 4 offers more than fast updates. When it comes it comes. I'm just going to enjoy this great device until it does.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jokesonme:
Where as I respect the upbeat look on your Note 4 device, Kit Kat was released at the end of 2013. And if this was a pc update for Windows or graphics drivers or a video game or anything else there's a good chance you would find it unacceptable. There's a difference between just mentioning a future product and never putting a date on soemthing where it will just randomly come out months and months later. You pay for your device and software you are entitled to expect certain quality and certain service. When your mom tells you "hey Billy if you get good grades I'll buy you a new toy" and then you're waiting and waiting 5,6,7 months... You would go "not cool mom". Also, Google pushing updates for the nexus and us not getting it isn't our fault. It's different when the iPhone 4 doesn't get ios 8 because it's too old to run it. If the iPhone 6 got the update and the 6 Plus didn't people would say wtf. If Apple pushed their new computer os for all desktops and not macbooks, or Windows 10 only came out for hp computers and the others waited months and months they have a right to feel a certain way about it if they are expecting a certain service or a promised update. Instead for stock values, board trading, quarterly earnings, companies have to leak and tease let's say lollipop a year or so early and then never follow up or provide a release. I'm just not as satisfied with that and it affects the market. And where I currently like this phone, I'd hope to stay with it. I had iPhone from 1-5 then came to Android for the S4, note 3 and now 4. Again because of some of apples unfavorable practices. It's the same debate about being able to root or jailbreak your device. And now with locked bootloaders, updates not being pushed etc, we have every right to hold those in reflection

Sorry for the rant :) That's what happens when Netflix keeps you up all night binge watching house of Cards before the new season drops!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] spexwood:
If this needs to be asked elsewhere, let me know, but does Lollipop fix the external SD security restriction that prevents 3rd party apps from writing or deleting to/from the micro SD card?

I heard it does, but not sure how reliable the info was. There are currently only 2 reasons why I'm eager for Lollipop:

1) I want to be able to use my favorite file manager to manipulate data or my micro SD and I want to be able to delete read comics from my micro SD using Comicrack.

2) I want the Project Volt (or whatever it's called) that's in Lollipop.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] icanfly77:
I thought the whole idea Google released a beta of Lollipop early 2014 before dropping the final was for manufacturers to get a heads up for months on the firmware so that it could be rolled out soon after the final drops?

Google used to do two releases a year and it was hard for manufacturers to keep up with this so by them changing their two releases to one beta release and one final release should have changed everything but alas has done diddly squat.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] imnoob55:
Yup it does. Lollipop added a new permission that you can grant to applications to access a folder and all subfolders (including just letting it read/write to an entire filesystem). It's a 1 time prompt, I believe. If it is an old app that hasn't been updated to take advantage of that new permission then it still won't work on your sd card (outside of its own specified directory).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] spexwood:
Thank you for that!

The apps I use to manipulate the micro SD are all updated... but KitKat is killing me right now with its stupid restrictions. On my old phone and my current tablet, I was easily able to bypass this issue by rooting and fixing the permissions, but the n910a is not yet rooted. Even if it gets root soon, then I'm hesitant to actually root because then I can't get OTAs anymore if Knox is tripped.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] ReggieSmith:
Why flame on AT&T for not releasing lollipop for the Note 4? Has any other US carrier released Lollipop for the Note 4?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] imnoob55:
Yup it seemed like an oversight from Google. I understand why they implemented the security measure as it certainly was needed for nefarious apps that wanted to read all your data and possibly write malicious changes to other applications on your phone but preventing it completely removed a lot of the flexibility we seek in android.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] WizeGuyDezignz:
Why do you want Project Volt if you don't even know what it's called? Just curious.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] ChefAnt:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] spexwood:
I know what the project is and what it does, but just couldn't remember the exact name/spelling. It was either Volt, Volte, or something whose name was similar, but different.

Not to sound rude, but just because I can't remember the exact name, doesn't mean I don't know what it is.
