Thanks a lot dude I def appreciate all the amazing feedback...sucks it took 3 builds to sort thru all the knox and secure storage...it's crazy how much they've tried to lock us down...v4 took a hammer to the blocks lol...def looking forward to seeing v4 after it settles in...for sure man def let me know if you come across an s5 settings tab mod...that'd be something I consider popping in the build [emoji106] lol...I'll look into it this weekend for us see if I can unlock it natively in the build...enjoy bro

That'd be awesome! It's a plus in my books having to wait a little to iron out somethings to make an incredible master piece. You've done an amazing job and that reflects loudly on v4. This thing is freakishly fast. I only mess with the best lol.

Looking forward to the s5 theme!

What is the version # of your google play services that you're using? I just tried to do a clean install again for v4 an hour ago, this time installing no apps and disabled all the google apps(like in OP2), and updated Google play services to 6.1.88 and the only app i installed was wake lock detector(to see if the wake lock is still there, in a fresh install) and sadly it is still there.

This happened in V3 also.

I also tried to install the google play services in OP2, but it just updates back to the latest, even if i turn off auto update from the play store.

This screenshot is of me before reflashing V4.

This screenshot is of freshly installed V4, with nothing downloaded besides WLD, and google play services updated.

I heard some good thing about this rom.....I'm getting my Note 2 today, and sadly I had ordered it like on the 24th, and also 11/06...they have shipped both now, and i would only need one, which eventually I'll have to ship the 2nd one back, before my girlfriend find out.....back to my question:

Does the finger print read works in this rom?

2nd, does the WIFI tethering works....I got unlimited internet no cap speed, but don't have the wifi tethering...so I want to know if that will work on this rom...as I heard they have it unlocked?

Thanks.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mgbotoe:
As stated Odin but for future, do not wipe internal with twrp it is more trouble than its worth, manually do it yourself. Wiping internal with twrp is known to have the effect of what you are having. And for safe precaution for fingerprint, disable it before moving to a new rom.

That's a Google service issue, known on all rom depending on how Google likes you. I cut down mine to 0% and my battery never been sweeter. Message me will guide you in fixing it with two method of your preference.

Been off the charger since 3am est, it is now 8:47am est. Only lost 3%. That's enough to keep me on this rom to see what it does once the battery settles in.... Oh and tethering works perfect lol.

[MENTION=5451734]megalomanic14[/MENTION], I must say....TREMENDOUS ROM & update!!! While I DONT do this, I must here (and to you) say that your work on this is unparalleled to none. And there is not even a single ROM for our Note's to even mention in the same sentence with yours!

To answer some of the questions Ive seen here, provided you follow the directions in posts #1 & #2.....

1. The Rom is FLAWLESS

2. Much smoother then V3

3. While I had both the Sound Mods & Viper installed before, your new sound mod & viper sounds much clearer and the leftover sounds I was getting before are now gone.

4. While it'd be nice to have the 3minit battery options baked in, if you just search this thread there is a user who posted the systemui for v3 which works perfectly on v4.

5. Despite your recommendation..... I used Titanium backup ---but v6 test 2 -- to restore a)1000 call log b)30,000 sms & mms, c) 450 apps & d) 225 data. It worked perfectly without a single hiccup!!!!! Just make sure NO SYSTEM APPS.

6. My call recording (which wasnt working in v3) is working again.

7. Wifi tethering baked in.

8. My antutu went from 47800 (v3) to 48400.... which im thinking will pop 49K after a day or two.

9. Somehow my battery life (also without settling in) has managed to increase..... How you did it, I have no idea, but QUITE IMPRESSIVE!!!!

Now..... if there's someone from Samsung here trolling these threads, my advice.... HIRE this kid!!!!! "The next big thing is NOW here"!!!!!

For the life of me I cannot get Awesome Note to display properly on my device. I've used App Settings via Xposed using settings I've found in various forums and it seems others are having the same trouble. How can I have it display where the text and icons are not miniscule? Thanks!

Seriously...full op2 copy for a question about 1 app? Lmao...

doubtful but it's possible but dude youre talking about a tablet app ripped from my note 8 using 16:10 layout in a 720p reso...play around with dpi per app and see what you can do but I never used that app before so I haven't bothered messing with it

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
You're gonna have to go extreme dude...our n4 dpi is something ridiculously high...something stupid like 640 dpi or so...it's early lol but the note 8 was something like 260 280 320...something in that range

Damn Mega, I can't believe this! I thought 3 was fast. When I installed v4 I heard a Wookie say "punch it" and now I"m in hyperspace. Smooth as silk with incredible battery life.

1. Seriously, how are you able to make it so fast (at least the UI and responsiveness) and still have such awesome battery life?

2. Why hasn't Samsung come to you and asked for help on their ROM's?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
No worries I personally think it's a neat app but it's heavily cluttered vs something like samsung s planner or business calendar pro...but I shared it cuz I pretty ripped anything and everything from my devices and share it...you may love it but it prolly won't work properly just due to the massive scaling variations between a 720p 16:10 8 inch screen and a 2k 16:9 5.7 inch display...if you set dpi try going like 280 or 300...may look ridiculous...try splitting the diffeence first at like 380 420

hey brother what are your thoughts about using this kernel with your Rom?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2936809
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
My thoughts are the same on using any kernel including my own...no real point...I'm not even gonna do my own like I had planned simply cuz the rom and hw is already so fast and efficient that there's no real point given the quality of the stock kernel as is...handles controllers really well, super stsble..there's nothing to be gained by it imo over clocking just wastes battery and adds heat on an otherwise cool fast and efficient rom...idk unless there's some specific mod that needs modded kernel I wouldn't bother but that's just my take on things...back in the day it made sense when we needed to boost the hw to push the rom but now not really as beneficial

Yea I don't think you're gonna be able to get around th at extreme native scaling...16:10 is completely different than 16:9 so you may be outta luck...you're best bet is to use multiples of the dpi...so if n8 is 260 try 260 x 4 = 1040 dpi

Just curious and likely a typical noob question, but if I have been granted a SIM unlock request from T-Mobile and I end up rooting/flashing this ROM, will I be able to use my phone overseas with say, a overseas prepaid SIM card? Or no and I'll lose the SIM unlock and be unable to use my tmo n4 overseas?

No I specifically bought a tmo n4 to sim unlock and use with att VA buying intl n4 so i could keep lte...nope once sim unlocks it's unlocked nothing revokes it

Wow Mega!

The ROMs keep getting better and better... Smoother and Smoother. I can't imagine it improving even more, but I bet V5 will be orders of magnitude better. I've build a few of my own ROMs during my HTC days from a kitchen, and have followed many devs over my years here. I would have to put you in the top 5 without a doubt, maybe top two! Thank you so much for your dedication and your willingness to allow us leechers to take what you give us. It's very much appreciated!

Thanks!

Contribute (Paypal)??

Wow, what a ROM!! Has anyone sent mega a contribution?? I have not seen any postings of that. I think we should all contribute a little something.

Mega, can you set up a post for paypal contributions or can I just paypal your email? What is your email to use?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] davidisflash:
Now i'm torn. This V3 was already insanely awesome on every level. Can't imagine V4 being even better :) It's hard to want to flash to the new ROM given how nice V3 is. Clean odin with correct base seems the way to go even with newer ROM updates...I'll stick with that method since it worked well. Well done mega!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ergibson83:
Awesome ROM Mega. I updated to V4 and my phone does seem to perform faster. However, when I ran Antutu my score actually dropped from 46,475 to 45,462. This was after installing all my apps and Greenifying everything and restarting my phone. Any suggestions on improving my performance? I just want to make sure my phone is running at its optimum performance.

Again, thanks for an amazing ROM!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] davidisflash:
I know I'm not OP but thought I could comment on this. That's a 2.2% drop which is nothing. From what I've seen in years of performance testing in general, you gotta account for some natural statistical deviation for experiments in general. If you are below say 3% I wouldn't worry about it. If you rerun it over and over right now, I doubt you'd get the exact same score anyhow. Try that: rerun same 5 times over and over on a fresh reboot, calculate the delta each time. See what average fluctuation and worse drop is. If you cross that 3-5, could be something.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ergibson83:
Thanks man,

I see a lot of people get obsessed with Antutu scores here so I figured I'd run a test to see where my Note 4 scores in comparison to everyone else's. Thanks for your suggestion. I'm definitely going to try it out.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] louser:
Mega,

Loving V4 no problems whatsoever. I had a stupid question tho. I decided to do a full install back to stick then root and install V4. I haven't used Odin since the og Samsung tab. Having said that when I used Odin to flash stock firmware it didn't completely wipe my system, it gave me the upgrading g android and came back on with all my stuff intact, just like a dirty flash. Did I miss something in Odin?

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
No that's right odin flashing stock will not wipe your data or apps it has the ability to essentially unmount your data/ folder and clean flash stock under your apps. .essentially the same as Ota updates do...that's why we wipe in twrp before flashing to get clean before flashing rom so your not flashing over data leftover

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
I actually am considering a slightly different take....if i do a donation box what I plan on doing is once it hits a certain point to buy a note 4 or note 12.2 ect buying a device and building a custom rom for it...doing my personal setup on it and kitting it out...then raffling it off...thats pretty much the only way I'd feel comfortable with taking money is if we do something cool with it...

If that's cool with you guys I'll look into figuring out how to set it all up?

Oh OK, so I should wipe data cache dalvik in two before I run Odin? Think I should do that now to have a fresh install?

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
No not before odin...after odin when you've rooted and flashed twrp...then boot into twrp and wipe those before flashing v4

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] louser:
That's how I did it this time. Just weird, I was used to installing a rooted stock rom on my tab and that ensured a fresh base before flashing a custom rom. Sounds like that isn't needed nowadays. Last I flashed my og tab was 2011

Also, those issues I had with cell/data went away same day before I could reflash 2 weeks ago. V4 so far so good, waiting to hit 15% before giving it's first full charge.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Thee_illuminati:
I have a pretty quick question to ask....when I updated to nj7 is it? Before I even rooted and flashed v2 I updated through Ota. ..does that matter at all in performance or should I reflash it using Odin?

That sounds awesome! Count me in.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] elite-fusion:
Hey Mega,

loving the V4 Rom, but private mode isnt working for me.

It says it fails to enable it.

I remember that I did not clear fingerprints from V3, so I just played it safe and reinstalled NJ7 via Odin, re-rooted, re-twrped, factory reset, advance wiped system delvik cache and data, flashed V4 and still same thing.

Any ideas?

Giving this ROM a go.

Last time I attempted to install a ROM was on my old Galaxy S1. It did not go well, wiped the IMEI #. Turned the phone into a 4" tablet. But that was years ago and things have come much further since then. I'm also high after installing Gnabo ROM on my Note 10.1.

I've been following this thread since V1 and V4 looks to be very nice so I decided now is the time.

I have rooted and installed TWRP, made a backup and copied it to my laptop. So I'm posting this here just because I can. Looking forward to great things, now if only I can get this ISP at work to send me the ROM faster. I'll come back to this post and put any updates so as not to clutter the thread.

EDIT #1: Ok silly question. If I wipe the phone, then I cannot install the ROM unless I have an external SD card installed, correct?

Looks like t-mo wifi tether is working and undetected. :good:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mailboy1412:
Don't wipe your internal storage unless you want to clean everything. Even in that case, you should just manually delete things.

If you do wipe internal, just keep a copy of zip on external sd so you can flash.

I got private mode working by selecting Disable Secure Storage in Wanam/Security Hacks.

sent from Canada via my Note 4, 3, 2 or one X+
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] RaymondPJR:
That is correct but not the recommended way to do it. Wipe everything on the phone except the internal sd card where the ROM will be directly downloaded to if you use your phone to download. You can copy the ROM to external sd and flash from there if you want, but it's not necessary.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] colorchange:
+1 big time!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Temetka:
Ok I don't want to mess up anything.

Booting into TWRP and selecting Wipe, then advanced wipe these are my options:

Dalvik

System

Data

Internal Storage

Cache

Micro SD Card

I don't have an SD card installed. So Select all of them EXCEPT "Internal Storage" correct?

I'd rather ask a dumb question, than wipe my phone and be up a certain creek.
