So when are we getting Android M, XD!

Effin hate this, nowadays even theme/mods are made for Lollipop.

Cant even mod my N910U, ill just say it.

****IN GAY, thats what it is....
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] somemadcaaant:
Someone stated that Intel still needs to give the M7260 modem drivers to Samsung so held up. Every one needs to be patient for the free updates that companies don't really have to give us, this is a development and knowledge forum not a whinging and whining reddit forum.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] tweeny80:
Maadcant mate, sorry but gonna add to the whinge -

Samslut is a huge entity working hard to keep their operations behind closed doors & we won't be bested by this Korean cash-greedy conglomerate. They already got our cash but we won't let them have our dignity!

Having said that, if Samsh*t had a daughter, in my current mood I'd get her drunk, whisper sweet nothings in her ear then take nude photos while she slept & post it on the web.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] somemadcaaant:
No disrespect to you Not-i , you're the boss and this is your thread so previous reply does not apply to you ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] mkim055:
It doesnt matter whether it is free or not, assuming what you said about intel not providing driver is true, customers wouldnt be this much stressed if Samsung even bothered to make a single official statement regarding delay.

Social media sharing must require a rocket scientist for Samsung.

Its just terrible how they treat their customers. Just because update is 'free' it doesnt mean they can do w/e and leave their supporters in a gray area. Now Im going into ethical issues... Ill leave it at that...

Lol tweeny80, that is disturbing, but you know what will be even better?

Leave a comment underneath the photo saying

"You want an update Samsh*t?"
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] jpbl1976:
To my knowledge, X doesn't have it yet either. Looking at the list -- are they going by this alphabetically? It sure looks that way.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] not-i:
I don't think so because H got it before G.

FYI if you want to get the feel of lollipop do a nandroid backup and flash my latest N910C rom. Everything works except for phone signal (wifi works) so you can check out what it's like. Then restore your backup when you need to call someone ;) I've done it a few times
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] skeamznz:
What would happen if we flash the n910c Rom through recovery then Odin flash the modem?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] mkim055:
I dont think its as simple as that, remember reading about someone trying it previously.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] jpbl1976:
Good idea! I am going to try it. I actually have several lines/numbers so I can actually keep it on Lollipop and use my iPhone 6.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] not-i:
You might brick. With odin it will flash the N910C bootloader and modem which may cause all sorts of problems. Don't try it.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] skeamznz:
Didn't think of that. Should of. Just getting plain sick of waiting as I'm sure you are.

[ROM][N910U][NEW]Sweet ROM V8.7 AOC4 4.4.4 [March 15][Sweet &amp; Sexy]

Got so sick of waiting for Lollipop -- so I used my store credit to get a 64gb iPhone 6+ from my dealer in Hong Kong after being underwhelmed by the SGS6/SGS6 Edge when I paid a visit to the Samsung shop in Harbour City today -- the home button still looks like it's made of plastic, by the way -- it's definitely NOT the sapphire glass or sapphire-alternative material I was expecting, given the price.

I spent a good half-hour playing with both of them. They were actually pretty *meh* design-wise. I've gotten so used to the Note 4's big screen that they both felt small in hand. They're not even nice enough to warrant the fawning the media have given it; I've handled Huawei phones that made me think "oh, this is nice." I wasn't allowed by the store manager to take pictures or I would have posted them here. These devices are basically average in today's era -- design-wise, they're about as nice as the Ascend P6/P7. Then again, why the heck should we believe what the media reviewers say? Have you seen the way David Ruddock and Nilay Patel dress? Those guys shouldn't be expressing any opinions about design at all.

This one was more of "huh? what's all the hype? It's the SGS5 made of glass with a metal border. The Gold/Wine version is just really tacky -- it's like the Sammy designers decided to take their design cue from a Casino. The Note 4 has a much classier look and more solid-feeling build. I would NEVER trade in my Note 4 for one. I also didn't notice any software smoothness advantage over the Note 4 either (thanks for putting this ROM together, not-i).

I think the people writing slobbering reviews (the Verge, Android Police, Engadget) must've been paid by Samsung (they have a history, whether they admit it or not) because, honestly, the HTC One M9 is STILL a nicer device even if it's basically just a 5% evolution of the M8's design. So disappointed! I was expecting to be wowed.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] kopkiwi:
Vodafone NZ have just got the test firmware from Samsung today. They expect it to take about a week provided there is no issues, then fire it back to Samsung for OTA release. So their early April date was absolute bull****. More like mid May

Likely to be my last Samsung device the note 4.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] jpbl1976:
What is so special about our variant that took them so long? I recall reading something about a missing Intel driver. Was it just that or something else? Anyone know?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] kopkiwi:
Not sure on that one mate. Bit of a joke it's taken them this long. Guess that's what happens when you have a billion different variations of the same device.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] touki.hn:
HELP!!!

Splendid job, [MENTION=4503214]not-i[/MENTION] dude! But in my device, I really feel a bit of laggy. Hope it will disapear in next version :D

And may I ask your a favor, not-i? I'm enjoy my Note3 rom **** with middle clock on status bar and click it to turn of screen and hold clicking to 4 ways turn of/fly mode/restart/emergency status. Plz dude, show me how or what mod is this? :crying:
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] not-i:
Mine doesn't lag any more than stock does. Its actually quicker. I'm running the same rom as you.

As for rom ****? Well not sure what to say to that ha ha ;) I haven't seen the mod you're describing. Is there a guide somewhere to do this? Never seen it myself
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] tweeny80:
There were mods like that (centre clock click to turn off) for my Note 2, I forget who made them but there are tutorials in that forum. Read them, figure it out, and share with us please, thanks for that.

As not-i said, no lag here. It's a fast ROM as exynos is a good system.

Shame about the delayed update, I got too cheeky with Samsung web chat people and somehow they blocked me from accessing their service from my work PC... by IP address probably haha
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] mkim055:
Lol what, they blocked your ip? Sad...
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] jpbl1976:
.... and another variant got Lollipop but we're still out in the cold: http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/0...edge-on-us-cellular-receive-android-lollipop/

If we don't get an update by May, I'm selling this and never buying a Samsung device again. They're terrible with major updates.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] dr.m0x:
I'd jump ship but where do you go? The Nexus 6 is too big and inferior in almost every way apart from having a newer Android version. The OnePlus One has better battery and firmware but is inferior in every other way and also doesn't support the band 28 that I need to get full coverage in New Zealand. The iPhone six plus bends and is an iPhone. Nothing else has the pen. Sigh
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] NZCloud:
Alternative

Maybe Lg G4 ...Non leather version! YUK. Too date their software updates have been pretty good, i have a G3 too and the 4 looking quite nice...That or throw it on Trademe and grab a snapdragon verson, which is what i will be doing in the next week im thinking.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] tweeny80:
What variant with SD works well in NZ? Damn, you may be on to something.

In the past have never been so annoyed at late updates as I am now. Not sure why ... oh wait it has something to do with Sam implying Note4 would definitely be updated (assumption: all Note 4's) and the fact it's a flagship device. And it cost umpteen dollars and I want bragging rights amongst my circle and was sure I'd have them based on all the above. Now you try and tell that to Sam web chat people, inject a little emotion and you'll be banned from chatting like I was :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] not-i:
The aussie N901G will work there. Same bands as N910U but is not updated either
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] dr.m0x:
Snappy doesn't have a band 28 modem as far as I know. Samsung did a good job of effectively region locking phone by limiting the lte bands to those used by specific regions.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] tweeny80:
OK thanks for the info... so G is SD. Am tempted yes, but honestly am not willing to swap for SD after some soul searching. Exy is a well executed system which I'm not willing to trade away.

Um unless you have plans to trade for an SD?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] skeamznz:
If Voda has it for testing it shouldn't be too long. I've just tried not to think about it. I've subscribed to this thread so I'm sure when it drops I'll get the notification.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] not-i:
To be honest I have the Note 3 SD (N9005) after having (still have) Note 1 & 2 Exynos and think I prefer Exynos. I also think our Exynos Note 4 is more future proof than the Snapdragon models. That's why l got it and I'm sticking with it
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] not-i:
Yeah the N910G has it. See pic
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Alcibiade:
So future proof that we still don't have Lollipop.... And we will most likely never have a stable CM12...

It is clear Exynos are better performers but it is not without its share of issues
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Ausboy 2011:
We'll get lollipop.. someday lol but as soon as one build comes i think we'll see newer updates just as fast as the other models..
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] jpbl1976:
[ROM][N910U][NEW]Sweet ROM V8.7 AOC4 4.4.4 [March 15][Sweet &amp; Sexy]

Well, i already have a iPhone 6 plus and don't really notice much difference in everyday use between it and our Note 4 variant, although i do miss the S pen for quick anotation work.

Having said that, i think apple isn't utilising the 6+ with the current software it's got. They need to do more on the software end to give the 6+ more differentiation. There need to be phablet-exclusive apps for the 6+.

One thing I am not worried about is bendgate. If the 3rd party tests are any indication, Sammy's new devices (s6, 6 edge) are even worse than 6+ so if that is any indication of how they'll build the Note 5, i would say it's a wash on that front.

I suppose that just to stick it to Sammy, i shall be getting a 6S+. They have really pissed me off with the slow Lollipop update on the Note 4.

Hey you guys know about Google's new handwriting app?

http://xdaforums.com/note-4/themes-apps/google-handwriting-app-replace-sams-t3083876
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] mkim055:
Maan im so tempted to swap my note for C variant lol
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] jpbl1976:
Tried it. Samsung's stylus/s-pen input is still better because it's contextual - i.e. it can be activated by the s-pen and doesn't change your default input setting. In terms of actual handwriting recognition, I think they're about on-par although presumably Sammy has an edge from having 4 generations of s-pen users to learn from.

I know this video not do with your work, my intention and share something I found in interessant least, I'm sorry, because I do not speak English that already prevented me often to participate in the forum.

Android Lollipop 5.1 vs. KitKat 4.4.4 Dalvick mode (default)

Hi everyone

I just installed the latest version of this ROM. I tried to change runtime system from Dalvik to ART, but after re-booting, it still shows Delvik even though it show upgrading application after re-booting.

Could you kindly advise what is wrong on my device?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] AlexxxR:
Do you have Xposed installed?

ART cannot run with Xposed installed and the runtime will always revert to dalvik unless you uninstall Xposed.

Nah nah, my eyes playing tricks on me. I did not read that, lol
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] not-i:

I'm not even going to flash the odin firmware yet, I'm gonna flash my rom without bootloader first & see how it goes. My theory is that the N910C 5.0.1 works on kk bootloader so this should too

I'll see what happens on mine but would think you need to do a full wipe.

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Alcibiade:
Same method as 4.4.4 is supposed to work
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] AlexxxR:
But you need the specific files for the specific android version, as chainfire method uses a recovery to root it, the recovery needs to be compatible.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] jpbl1976:
Hmm... I get the sense you'd like to flash the stock ROM and root it. Am I right?

That sounds like a good idea -- but I'd like to try not-i's method of not changing bootloader just yet.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Alcibiade:
I just used the standard one and it worked without issue

All good.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] mkim055:
Now now, we waited this long for 5.0 release, lets not get too hasty. Wait for not-i XD
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] AlexxxR:
That is the idea, I am hoping to avoid any issues that way. But if others flash his dirty, then I'll be a dirty man and join them. But, if not, I want to be sure of a working phone.

Ah that is awesome! and how does it feel? I'll be doing benchmarks as soon as it's loaded.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Alcibiade:
I dirty flashed. Installing stuff now. Will try to benchmark later. I hope just wiping cache will be enough to avoid performance and battery issues.

All I can say us it does look and feels great
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] AlexxxR:
I was meaning if others dirty flash not-i's rom, not the stock 5.0.1 update. Of course you can flash that dirty, its the update going through as it should.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Alcibiade:
Not always it seems. Anyway, so far so good!

As soon as the Lollipop version of sweet ROM is out, I ll try
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] dennis nai:
I am sure with the 5.0.1 upgrade you will be sad with the benchmark ,mine turn out worst compare to 4.4.4

910u exynos 4.4.4 rooted with some mod 51000 on antutu ,after lollipop 5.0.1 45000

915k exynos 4.4.4 rooted with custom rom and kernel 55000 after lollipop 5.0.1 45000

But my s5 g900f snapgragon 4.4.2 standard 37500 after custom rom and kernel from twi5ted rom 5.0.1 48000

Note 3 n9005 snapdragon 4.4.2 standard 35000 after custom rom and kernel 47000

I think samsung rush out lollipop for exynos as there is still some bug ,cant wait till they straighten things out on 5.0.2 or 5.1
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Alcibiade:
Fair enough. Benchmarks are not what I use my phone mostly for though ahaha :)

I suppose some custom kernels may also help while waiting for Samsung's updates (Which may take a while...)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] dennis nai:
Benchmark is just a guidline i am sure you will notice the difference on the graphic display which turn out jerky

Hope you guys can fix this ,as you mention it will take a long time for the next upgrade
