I haven't been this excited and gitty about waiting for a ROM in....wait let me count....1, 2, 3, 4....I can't remember how long. It's been ages.

You (Dev/OP) my friend have an extremely great thing going. The vibe here is amazing. This is what XDA is all about. Others take note.

I've cleared my entire day to work on flashing v2 as soon as it hits shore. On two N4's.

And those benchmark scores....Merry Christmas! This is just the beginning. ....

Thank you!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Sure thing man no problem...as to the quick charge I personally am totally cool with using it simply for the fact that if it ruins my battery it's cheap and easily swapped...that said I'm super careful not to leave it charging overnight like my normal charge cycle because leaving it sit on the charger could ruin your battery...so as long as you use it and remove it it shouldn't make a huge difference just don't leave it sit....the way it works is by allowing more current from the charger unit from 5v 2amp to 9v so just be mindful not to leave it overnight on quick charge and you'll be fine bro

Man that's a tricky question...daily driver? Yes I've carried n4 everyday since I bought it...favorite device that's different since I have dif ferent favorites for given situations...at home 95% of the time I'm actually on my galaxy mega 6.3 and hardly ever pickup my notes...my megakat rom runs as fast an smooth as a note 3 so it's hard to pass up that massive display lol....but i almost always carry my note 3 and now n4 since I got it when I leave. ..i love the note 4 power but it can't make up half an inch of screen size which is way more beneficial to me hanging out at home...all in all n4 is the best device I've ever owned for sure...most polished, well specd, ect

Mega

There's even caveats to my use much less picking 1 favorite lol...i said normally I use megas at home...except since flashing v4 I can't put my note 4 down lol...its the fastest mobile experience I've ever seen...more like pc performance than android...it'd rapidly growing on me to be my favorite device ever tbh I'm more impressed everytime I pick it up
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Awesome dude glad you enjoy it and it's coming in handy...

1. No...just turn your volume down lol

2. Yep op2 has the instructions already

3. Yep: using root explorer

System

Media

Audio

Ui

Remove poweron.ogg (copy to ext sd)

Done

Enjoy man

Quick question. Is busy box free built into this Rom? I see the icon in the drawer but can't remember if I downloaded it or not . Is it safe to remove?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
It's built in but no harm in reinstalling BusyBox binaries either way...i usually update BusyBox via the app regardless just as part of my normal setup routine...you don't wanna remove it tho

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Misterjunky:
re: busybox

I would not un-install busybox, there are certain root apps which depend

on it for them to run and busybox does not use any additional system

resources or drain your battery at all.

Good luck!

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Temetka:
I still have some more tweaks to make but my first Antutu run is amazing.

Nice.

Just goes to show how much better this device performs with this ROM. When I first got my Note it was getting beaten by the M8T. Now it smokes it handidly.

I know it's been said about a thousand times: Excellent work on the ROM, Mega.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] iunlock:
This really is making me want to go and buy another Note 4 while I can before they update all the software where 5.0 is stock out of the box....hmmmm

Not a bad idea? In the event that the end is the end :(

Cherish your Note 4 guys! Take care of it....

Nice score. Gotta love seeing it tower over everything in its path...LOL
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Temetka:
Ok so as per this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/note-4-tmobile/general/experiencing-lag-t2914618

I disabled a good chunk of what that OP had in their list. Rebooted.

Curious if his list of stuff to disable + FireKat will = Even more speed and stability.

Mega if you could chime in on whether or not that list is any good, that would be super awesome.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] iunlock:
That's a great list and yes it may help, but not necessary. I had most of my stuff frozen on that list (before) and then some. I've spent hours ...trial and error... as of right now everything is 100% functional.

Try it out...won't hurt, but just be careful with the system apps...leave "most" of those alone.

However...all the common sense stuff...like Google crap, Google books etc...freeze those LOL.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Lol there's no point...of that list I removed the crucial ones already the printer ones ect don't even run unless attempting to access a function...but after disabling all all the additional apps not removed from fk the battery life and performance is either the same or less than I get only disabling those few listed in op2...now several she listed I already remove from the builds obviosuly like all knox klms ect...and gicen 2 or 3 points are from op2 she may have just went thru and compared what I removed and used my op2 as its basically a copy of it plus her persoanl serup touches for a general guide to help others with their setup...really great post she put together...yet the basic rule stands.. by disabling xyz then people wonder why they have issue xyz that otherwise wouldn't be there. .if an apk in the system was pointless or caused drain or slow down I would remove it lol...the thing is 90% of the system apks only run when necessary or are integral to other functions...this is counterproductive imo but to each their own lol... but for anyone that wants my setup...i dont jack with the system because I've already set it up so precisely in the build itself...i merely disable the few apps that I left in for others that do use them...on stock rom it def makes more sense but not on fk...my 2 cents

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] iunlock:
Freeze at your own risk and do not post about any issues before checking titanium.

Yes indeed. A lot of those on the list are already removed by Mega, so really there is no need.

DISCLAIMER: IF, anyone decides to freeze whatever, make darn sure to double check what you may have frozen before posting up something that isn't working properly.

Personally, on v4 I have frozen most all of the Google crap, less Gmail. Unfortunately. That's pretty much it along with maybe a few here and there that I'll never use.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea and like I told you in that pm when you asked me about this before...the hw is so powerful and the rom so fast and efficient as is...its not like you need to introduce issues for a return of more battery life...i cant use my battery in 1 day regardless lol that's why I say that's a bit of a thing of the past imo but totally get everyone like their setup different...just wanna be clear that if you like having less icons/widgets basically freeze xyz I'm all for it as long as people know what they're freezing lol you know...but other than that it's not gonna give you really any benefit

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Misterjunky:
re: freezing apps

I am not sure if you are aware that if you are using the stock touchwiz launcher

you can "hide" apps which you don't want to see in your app drawer instead of

freezing them.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] iunlock:
Precisely. This is why I only freeze the things I know for darn sure I won't need or that'll affect anything else. Like Google....I'll do anything to rid them as much as I can....just sucks we can't rid them all LOL.

v4 is running like a beast. I'm excited to see what my battery life will be tomorrow. Oh and my buddy ran an AnTuTu earlier and was hitting high 48k's. Dang it...now I'm tempted to run some again....just one more time? I keep telling myself hahahaha....

All good fun.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lmills.117:
Hey Mega, your instructions on how to disable the T-Mobile boot animation didn't seem to work. Furthermore, it looks like you were telling me just to delete the sound file (but wouldn't the "T-Mobile" splash screen still appear?)

Also, the reason I wanted to adjust the sound levels back to default was because I am somewhat concerned about blowing the speaker. Yeah I know, keep the volume turned down. But I don't particularly have a reason for it to be that loud in the first place. How difficult would it be for me to put the volume levels back at default? I also like being able to make my ringtone quieter, as at it's quietest (now) it's still a little too loud for my liking.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea because you can't...boot screen can't be disabled. ..replaced but that's it...don't want the boot sound delete the file like I said before...volume can't be changed in the build...turn the volume down....even at max it's no where near the highest max setting or anywhere remotely close to damaging the speaker since it's not a mod...it's in the system itself lol...but if having vastly improved sound quality with a slightly boosted gain is a deal breaker maybe stock rom would be more to your liking

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] iunlock:
Regarding the volume and blowing your speakers, there is no need to worry. On my previous note devices, I had the volume tweaked to its MAX. I mean MAX. Rest assured, I ran the crap out of those speakers and they all were just fine. I wouldn't worry about blowing your speakers. That's extremely rare....as I can't even remember an instance of even hearing about that happening. I'm sure it has happened, but really...no worries. :good:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Temetka:
Yes I am aware of this. However it's always good to point out the simple things because people sometimes forget them.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
You see the Google keyboard update they just pushed out? Wtf did they do to it lol? No separation between the keys? So goofy looking lol

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lmills.117:
Thanks for the reassurance, I won't worry about the sound.

As far as the splash screen at startup goes, I know it's possible to remove or hide it, as it is done with another ROM I have tried. I won't say it here because I've been informed that discussing other ROMs in these threads is bad form, but suffice to say that it is possible.

Also, is there any way I can get the hidden toggles without paying 3 bucks for sqlite editor?

Finally, thanks mega for your help and for your work on this ROM. The ability to have unlocked tethering in and of itself is absolutely fantastic.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea and i totally get that a lot of people have that old habit where it was extremely beneficial and are now used to a trimmed build...but just for context...i did a set of mega 6.3 4.2.2 builds that were kitted up identically except one was stripped heavily of system apks and apps whereas mine/the normal build was in tact. ..on 17 successive builds the regular build benchmarked slightly higher (insignificant like 400 points but noted) and gave the same battery life....so I don't really recommend messing with the system as it's already so optimized...junky recommended a great alternative simply hiding the app icons from your launcher...same effect without the risk of issues or hassle but if you know what you're disabling before hand and are careful I suggest doing in through app Manger disabling them vs freezing them in tb

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Dude they didn't remove the boot screen they changed it to intl samsung boot screen...like I said in the last post you can replace the tmo one with stock Samsung or any other compatible custom bootani people come up with ..no no Sq editor no toggles it's a must for most modding live

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Did you flash ANJ7? Did you flash a rom in between flashing ANJ7 and flashing v4? You need to re odin root and flash twrp again

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] xuni89:
I already faslhed v4 before. I was dirty flashing it coz the "Night shade" Theme was not compatible with this rom, the thread said "

If you're having problems or don't like it just dirty flash the rom you're on & all should be back to normal. Please enjoy!" So i dirty flash and behold. couldn't flash at all after this lol. so re-odin root is needed?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea because you can't dirty flash over a jacked up system lol smh sorry can't believe they told people that...you need to odin flash and clean your system back up...start fresh and do it right...this is why I say NEVER dirty flash anything...but that'll get you back running fk silky smooth buddy

You may not need to even use SetCPU my friend as this thing is a beast all on its own.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but SetCPU controls only the main core where as CPU Performance Control Free you can set mins. and max. to all four?

Out of curiosity, what is it that you're trying to achieve? If it's gaming, I have played every game of mine so far maxed out (graphics that is) without a single problem without using any cpu apps.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea the cpu apps aren't really necessary...they're just a touch more overkill to an already overly powerful setup lol....i cant imagine there's a game or app on Android that would need a controller with n4 on v4...i use them simply out of habit tbh lol I mean I've never used interactive Gov till note 4 lol

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Hahah ok I cleared a bunch more out lol...what do you think...starting on a new winter theme for my mega....can't decide what color to go with blur for notification toggles what do you think? Maybe lighter transparent blue? Or orange? fully clear with blur? Can't device maybe scrap that pic for a different one...i love it just doesn't seem to flow

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] iunlock:
First Screen: Maybe a little less snow on top as it makes it really busy and washes out some stuff. (I know that's a background pic, but adding a darker transparency would help with the contrast.)

Second Scree: I like how it flows....hmmm...a slight darker with the transparency?

Third Scree: More of a darker transparency...just a touch would really make the icons stand out. Looks great though.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Lol yea unfortunately the home screen one is stars lol yea it's super busy but has a sort of cool sparkling effect...i like the notification page just doesn't seem to fit right/look right idk

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AntiCommon:
Hi everyone, I'm a prospective Note 4 owner and I'd just like to know... What kind of speed issues does this device have (stock) and how does this rom do in alleviating them? I'm having the hardest time deciding between the Note and a N6. (The note's display, and battery life are my biggest +'s for the Note)

Also does this rom do anything for the battery life?

Sorry for the million questions, any and all answers are very appreciated though.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] elite-fusion:
Had the same issue with V3 when I was trying to install it.

Boot into TWRP and do a Fix Permissions, that solved my issue.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] colorchange:
You will hear rave reviews from everyone. Way faster, silly amount so, ultra smooth, and battery lasts forever. I am an engineer (chemical) and find it shocking Mega could improve the performance of the phone so much.

First of all, thanks for this great rom. Secondly, I'm trying to make sure that the tethering is working properly but I can't change my APN to the tethering APN. A reverse back to the original APN. Should I be concerned?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rambo8987:
You need to add the dash for tethering apn and delete dun
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tkbredx:
Must say. Hell of a job again Mega. Antutu went up 2000 on the first day from v3 to v4. Besides that I can truly feel the improvement in speed which is 100x better than any benchmark.

Battery also improved. I'm getting about 30-45 minutes more than I was on v3. Amazing! Although I know it's not as amazing as everyone else. I haven't gotten to 4 hrs screen time yet on any of the versions (stock, v1, v2, or v3). Strange right?

I clean flash and use all the op instructions and greenify. Do you think I could have a hardware issue?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ejdavis:
Thank you!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] elite-fusion:
Can you please explain. I have not tried tethering but after updating to V4, I now have addition items in the APN section. I do know that both types need to be set to ipv4, so I am assuming that is why Mega made ipv6 and ipv4 for the MMS item, and ipv4 for both the others. From what I see, the Tether one has dun listed as the type, while the regular one has default and supl listed.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rambo8987:
Fast.t-mobile.com . Delete dun in apn type

---------- Post added at 03:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:48 PM ----------

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] elite-fusion:
Alright, I delete dun in the tethering APN, and added a dash, but it reverted back to the LTE one, then I deleted it completely and left the item blank instead, and it worked, but my concern is, why was DUN in there to begin with?

I would assume Mega added it into there for a reason?
