[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] jpbl1976:
Here's ONE thing that's positive about the Note5: the home button's covered in glass (FINALLY). I got to play with one for around half an hour at the shop early this afternoon. The glass cover looks like Gorilla glass -- although it could be a sapphire cover like the iPhone's.

Whatever it is, the Note5's home button is definitely an improvement over the one on the S6/S6 Edge, which itself was a slight improvement over the Note 4's home button -- but it was still obviously some plastic/polycarbonate thing. I'm very surprised no reviewer mentioned it.

Physically, the dimensions are not all that different from the Note 4. The 4's far heavier feeling in-hand but they've got very similar footprints. You'll definitely want to put a case on it if you plan to keep it in your pants pockets. It feels a LOT flimsier than the iPhone 6 Plus -- and needless to say much flimsier than the Note 4.

I'm surprising myself by writing this but the Gold version isn't actually tacky. It's a tasteful shade of gold; more like champagne than yellow metal.

Also, themes are like those on the S6 -- I played with the theming engine and it's very speedy. You can actually download a theme from the theme shop that resembles stock Lollipop, so no more flashing modded SystemUI's.

Other than that, the big criticism remains the same. Not enough space! It's a shame. If Sammy had kept the SD slot (and my feeling is it could've because the presence of dual-sim variants suggests there's room on the device for one) AND provided a 128GB variant, it would've been a 9/10 -- and hands-down the best handset of 2015 -- even with the loss of a removable battery and IR blaster. But it didn't. What a tease. There is also apparently a huge memory management issue -- despite being the device leader in memory hardware. Apparently, Sammy's taken a page out of Apple's playbook (or Windows Phone as the case may be) for its memory management. Hilarious.

Oh. Don't bother with the Edge+. I played with it too. Without the stylus and related software, I just don't see the point to that device other than being an alternative for people who want Samsung's version of the iPhone 6 Plus.

*** Sorry for going off tangent***
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] tweeny80:
If you do choose to depart Samsung for Motorola, I hope Sammy hurry the *uck up and deliver us 5.1 so we can get Sweet ROM ver 16 before you leave!

As I said before, I fully agree with your decision. There's just not much to do with Exynos devices. Even C variant, with many different ROMs available, are generally same ROM with more/less bloat & some Note 5 apps thrown in. Slim pickings all around.

I just want frequent updates, I want the latest greatest things from Google. Praying the new Nexi are just fabulous :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] jpbl1976:
One thing I hope that eventually makes it to the Note 4 is the system-level theming that's present in SGS6 and Note5. While I love the themes from the guys here at XDA, what we've got is really limited to the notifications shade. Right now, there's a 'stock lollipop' theme on for the SGS6 that I'd love to see on our devices.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] not-i:
If the Nexus has good size storage I would consider it too. But don't worry I'm probably not going to leave Note 4 for some time yet (if I do) as I am waiting for the Nexus to be announced also then weigh up my options. Having said that there is absolutely nothing wrong with my Note 4 but I really was expecting to like the Note 5 and get one but its not to be :(

Yeah hopefully it comes or at least is easier to port once 5.1.1 drops for us

Hi,

Is it possible to get Sweetrom to work on an SM N910L?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] mkim055:
Just bought Huawei P8 for $550 in New Zealand, a gift to mom, I must say Chinese brands have come long way in smartphone market. Very stylish, performs nicely, only a minor stutter switching between apps, mostly fluid. Obviously not something Note4 users would switch to, but a very nice phone.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] jpbl1976:
Yeah. They certainly have -- China may very well have the next Sony and Samsung developing out there. My Dad likes to say that back in the 60's, no one thought much of Sony -- they occupied the same brand perception as the China brands did a few years ago. If these Chinese OEMs get better and better, they may push out Samsung worldwide (not just in China) -- and Sammy might even go the way of RCA (extinct) or more likely, HP (still around but not as relevant).

In a way, it's not really surprising they're getting better -- American and Japanese companies can't manufacture a lot of their inventory out there and not expect their quality standards and tech to become assimilated. After all, it's 'Designed by Apple in California. Made in China.'

Plus, a lot of Chinese engineers are trained in the US. Don't be surprised if they're going toe-to-toe with Apple inside of a decade.

Anyway, just out of curiosity, I bought a brand-new Huawei Honor 4X and flashed its 5.1.1 Lollipop Beta. Its a very speedy device. Generally good build quality (for a plastic device, a bit like a Lumia, actually -- it just doesn't have the design flair the Lumia line has). Its main limitation was the 8GB of on-board storage but it had a 5.5" screen, 2GB of RAM and the Kirin processor wasn't slow at all. It didn't even have a Huawei logo, just some etching on the back that said 'Honor.' I actually liked that.

I sold it after a week (took a $90 hit for the privilege on the re-sell) because carrying 3 devices around is no joke -- but I had a very good experience with it. In addition to getting an Moto X-Style, I'm now thinking about the P8 Max -- 6.8 inch GG3 coated 1080p display, 64GB storage with an SD card slot. Uses a Kirin Octacore 64-bit octacore chip to drive it.

The tough part's getting an import. Even my dealer in Hong Kong can't seem to get one at this time so I'll probably have to pick it up in the UK. Specs are here in case you're interested: http://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_p8max-7200.php.

What a monstrosity, huge. I like it. Pretty sure it would cause issues in your front pocket. "Is that a shoebox in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?"

Personally, I love its size. Barely shy of a nexus 7" tablet. Do you know if its rootable? And Huawei's record of OS updates ... what's it like?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] jpbl1976:
The Dev scene for Huawei looks pretty quiet. I believe that with the more mainstream flagships like the P8, there's some development but for more specialised variants like the P8 Max, there isn't even an XDA sub-forum.

As far as updates -- the Honor 4X I had was released in April 2015 in some markets (in China, it was October 2014, I think) -- but with KitKat, the Beta 5.1.1 ROM was released to the public in late July, I believe and my recollection is the final 5.1.1. ROM should be out in September. That actually puts Huawei at a faster update rate than our Note 4. Haha. I'm not certain how long after release they support their devices, though. Probably just a year, if that.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] mkim055:
There arent many p8 cases, not even screen protectors, so Im not really expecting dev either lol.

It feels like Huawei is trying to squeeze into NZ market though, they doing screen protection 1yr warranty - free screen repair within 1yr. JB hi-fi staffs also get a chance to win Huawei P8 through an internal sales competition, so I guess Huawei is really trying to make a stand.

Thats how I got it so cheap, friend works at JB hifi and he won 2 of them.

5.1.1 Bootloader and all released, for N910C possible to make it work on N910U [MENTION=4503214]not-i[/MENTION] ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] tweeny80:
Hehe you beat me to it. Do you ever sleep?

Don't think not-i has previously converted C to U. DrKetan did, didn't he?

I reckon wait for U update to drop shouldn't be much more of a wait
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] truenitos:
Sometimes I sleep haha, but im on xda all time
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] not-i:
I was the first to convert. remember when we were running a couple of ported N910C rom's in this thread? Before anyone tried to port.

But anyway I'm not going to risk the N910C bootloader on my N910U. If you wish to risk it go ahead and let us know if its safe ;)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] tweeny80:
I stand corrected. Last time I was wrong was back in 1994 .... :-|
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] mkim055:
Is that when you bought your first Samsung phone? Hehe
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] not-i:
Ha ha :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] tweeny80:
Hoping we get the update sooner than later... I've stuffed up my AIR Command to the point it won't appear when clicking S pen button. Can't be bothered troubleshooting either.

Only time you ever need Air command is when it doesn't work.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] jpbl1976:
Does anyone know if the S6/Note5 theming has been included with the Note 4 5.1.1 updates? That's really the only thing I want from the new TW ROMs. These candy colored Sammy stock themes are really starting to wear me out.

By the way, while waiting for my Moto X Style, I managed to get an invite for the OnePlus 2. I ordered one. It should arrive tomorrow. Like the Note5, it's got limited storage but in the areas that matter to me, I think they're pretty comparable. The lower display res and the Camera are definitely lesser -- but no one except maybe Apple can beat Sammy when it comes to cameras (don't believe the G4 hype train. I got my wife one and I prefer the Note 4's camera) and I could never tell the difference between the 1080p display of my 6 plus and the Note 4's QHD display so I'm fine in that area.

Not too bothered about the lack of NFC and wireless charging. I hardly ever use NFC and I find wireless charging a bit gimmicky -- it's basically making your device 'sip' power rather than recharge.

I am looking forward to Oxygen's lightly-skinned Android, though... Plus -- the physical buttons really make a difference -- you get to use the whole display rather than sacrificing screen estate for nav buttons. In that sense, the Note 4 (and Note5) may as well have 6-inch displays -- the Plus 2 follows in that tradition,
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] tweeny80:
N4 5.1.1 doesn't have any new ui appearance, based on what I've read. I too want to be rid of TW look and feel. I want android, naked, regular updates.

I need a Nexus. Considered the Nexus 6, nice size and QHD so it'll work in Google cardboard (just bought one, $25). I want the soon to be released Nexi to tick all my boxes.

I hope Rayman manages to squash all bugs in exynoa CM12 port. If that happens may keep this awesome phone
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Bishal 00:

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Bishal 00:
#robmausser Clean install or just install xposed and XSecureStorage.Then you can use private mode without any problems.

[MENTION=4503214]not-i[/MENTION], does our device have a built-in radio chip for fm radio??

If it does, can someone share stock samsung fm radio app please

No FM radio on the Note 4, unfortunately ?

I read that sprint has radio enabled, and chip can be enabled with root. Is this true?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] EP2008:
Have you tried this app? http://nextradioapp.com/

It's suppose to allow you to use the FM radio chop on supported devices. I can't install it from Canada, but it lists the sprint note 4 as supported.

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Ausboy 2011:
But remember the wait was so long for us due to the modem drivers according to some devs. Hopefully it's soon
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] tweeny80:
This is my understanding:

- U update arrives

- root will be dependent on kernel source availability

- once source is posted, someone smarter than me must provide permissive kernel for root.

- then we rely on the benevolence of not-i to cook a kickass ROM.

Amirite?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Alcibiade:
Very likely modem drivers for 5.0.1 and 5.1.1 are the same. Wait should be shorter.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] truenitos:
Then binh should try flashing N910U Modem 5.0.1 and see if he get signal ! Same for 5.0.1 kernel!

get it going i posted in this section few months back ,but no one seem to have issues or a fix for me ....if i try to go to stock the hidden.img fails (hopefully the s pen might start working again cause it was working before i put this rom on

it), i tried dr kretans rom too to get the s pen working but no luck .... so i can't get to stock or i can't get the spen working i ve looked all over the net for solutions , from deleting the hidden img to try get another pit file which sum say fixes this issue .sum say down grade to kitkat that might get the spen working again ?? any solutions??

Haha! I may have a Sony Xperia Z5 Premium by then. I decided to cancel my Moto X Style order and opted for the Z5 instead. It seems like this is the phone with the least compromises among this year's flagships.

In the meantime, to satisfy my 'new toy' craving, I'm playing with the OnePlus 2. All I can say is that it can't even kill last year's flagship (Note 4) so I'm thinking maybe the 'flagship' it's supposed to kill is the mid-range Nexus 5 (2015). In fact, I think the Note 4 wipes the floor with the OnePlus 2 -- especially with Sweet ROM running.

[MENTION=4503214]not-i[/MENTION] -- hope you'll consider a Z5 Premium -- for selfish reasons because I hope to see an Xperia Sweet ROM but also because it seems like a very solid device (fingerprint magnet notwithstanding). Other than a 0.2" smaller screen and no stylus, it's pretty much everything we're looking for in a new device -- plus it's got the all-important SD card slot. Water-proofing and what looks like a best-in-class fingerprint scanner are the other selling points. The only worrisome thing to me is battery life with the wonderful/insane display it has. Also, I've been running a OnePlus 2 and you can browse their OP forums but I think the SD810 is getting a bad rap. It's not the heating pad people claim it to be. It seems like the early driver foibles are slowly getting addressed and it may be a solid performer at some stage very soon.

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] djmax81:
You need official 5.1.1 coz there are major changes . Without boot loader no port will run for n910u might get bugs like fingerprint scanner and wifi password isssue as compiling kernel for n910u is no issue from n910c or n910h devise as only difference is the modem but to run it stable bootloader is required.

Edited : [MENTION=4503214]not-i[/MENTION] if you want signature (sweet-rom) kernel for your N910C / N910H i can just compile for 5.1.1 + Can also provide N910U compiled kernel for port 5.1.1 (Modem change and will try my best without Bootloader workaround ) tho i already mentioned results for N910U .
