does clean flash mean that i have to factory reset (inside TWRP or phone setting ) or step 5 (TWRP Wipe) itself is clean flash. And do i place the rom file into internal storage or external sd card?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rudbwoy:
This: Unlimited WiFi Tethering

and this: WiFi Tether Router

It used to work on v11 of FK for me. I updated the T-Mobile apps and then it "broke." I'm on LL now, and it works like it should. Just pay attention to the mentioned items in the Unlimited WiFi Tethering thread.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ihateu:
Isn't unlimited tethering already part of the rom? Do I have to buy this app? I already have my apn setting changed to ip4. Thanks for your reply

I use wifi tether router and works perfectly.

Wow really ? Running KitKat when we have android 7 out ?? What is so good about KitKat
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] wh4g:
What!? Are you seriously asking such a question? It's not just KitKat my friend... It's FireKat! & what's so good? Simply put, it's sheer awesomeness from the Mega master himself. This room runs far better than the stock version with the best battery life on the planet. That's why it's so loved & revered.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] titusxperia10:
Been going from here to there flashing almost all ports and almost all roms from kk to mm and definitely this is the rom my good man! Personally,I've found that kk is the best android version for my beloved note 4: the battery life Is amazing in this rom, no xposed issues, blazzing fast and reliable. Newest is not always better.

If you someday want to "downgrade" to kk look no further, this is the rom. In fact I'm getting another brand new note 4 (for me, the last perfect galaxy note) and the first thing I'm gonna do is Odin kk, twrp and flash this amazing rom.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Manan79:
Thank you for the replies

I was not aware of this , I thought marshmallow had lot of battery optimizations compared to kit kat out of the box but you seem so convinced that this rom is better than the most I will surely give it a try and share results.

Which version I should flash ? I see number of version on first page...can you point me to the right version ank4 or anj7?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] titusxperia10:
Well, in my case (N910W8) my option to go as stock as possible with this rom, with no need to flash fixes of any kind to make it work as it should, is the AOA1 latest version, I think for Tmo the one you should go after is the ANK4 or the latest uploaded by great Mega.

MM brings in theory those bells and whistles about battery life like doze, but that works only when the phone is laid and not in use and that consumes a lot of resources like sensors when you are moving with your phone on a normal day. As far as my testings went, heavily debloating and freezing services, I still couldn't make a single 14 hrs day with a single charge in MM, with KK in this rom I can go almost for 2 full days.

Also xposed in lollipop and mm were at least for me a real pain... battery drain, overheat issues sometimes, plus a lot of other things I really missed from KK helped me to make the decision and I cannot be happier with KK again.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Manan79:
ok , so i tried to downgrade 910t from 6.0.1 to 4.4.4 or 5.1.1 using Odin stock images, and it fails saying "SW REV CHECK FAIL : [aboot]Fused 2 > Binary 1"

It seems it blocks downgrading

any solutions ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] vprasad1:
Mega, any chance of doing a FireKat using the N910T2 Odin base? It's the only working Kitkat option for folks that took the DOK2 (5.1.1) or EPE3 (6.0.1) upgrades on their N910T devices.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] titusxperia10:
OK what I did to counter those messages in odin refusing the installation was to flash the latest kitkat version for w8 which was AOA1, along with the PIT file for my phone, which is located somewhere in the note 4 general forum, in the same Odin session and that did the trick. It seems kk and mm partitions are different but the PIT file remains the same along versions. However, I was kind of brave doing that because of my chance to get a new note 4 and it worked, however you should read and research what a PIT file is and what's for if you're not familiar with it since messing with that is risky and not always recommended. Also, using another USB port sometimes help.

Really hope you find your way in this process.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Manan79:
Yeah i did come across such articles too ,however If I get any material somewhere about exact steps for 910t I will follow else I will think about if it is worth taking the risk....thanks for the useful information
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Manan79:
After all the research , i could not find real answer, seems there is no way downgrading from DOK2 (you can only downgrade upto DOK2) , there are ways to go to 4.4.4 using model 910T2 stock firmware , but after that what i read is , ppl are not able to flash custom roms of 910T on top of 910t2 stock firmware, so no use.

I found pit file for 910t and i can try flashing them with 4.4.4 910T stock firmware, but that is too risky, if it fails (which is most likely the casE) , i wil have phone bricked.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Manan79:
Update :: SUCCESS : I am now on FireKat v21 on 910T , I did following after my research

1. Flashed 910T2 4.4.4 stock rom using Odin

2. Flashed TWRP using odin

2. Flashed FireKat V21 using TWRP

3. Flashed nadia kernal for 4.4.4 910t using TWRP --- link : http://xdaforums.com/note-4-tmobile/orig-development/tw-emotroid-team-t3022240

Samsung Ad

So, I just saw a notification AD for Samsung Knox. Any idea which app is doing that? Want to get rid of it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] paulie_gogetit:
I was going to say. Via Wanam Xposed I wasn't able to enable Lock Screen icons, along with some other features which normally you can on Samsung Devices. Is that because of 4.4.4?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea they removed my favorite bit of the lock screen on 4.4.4 no more shortcuts bro...if your like me and love the shortcuts and a cool animation effect check this replacement out i use on all my notes...enjoy man

Wait...on the rom? You clean flashed v3? And saw a knox notification? ...but all knox apks are removed, and I literally removed all knox system links so there's literally no active knox from kernel up anywhere in the system...

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Lmao I think this was called air view or something on n3...where the screen lights up for notifications ect...love the effect and use it on n3 firekat but has no where near the drain as it does on n4 crazy

Thats super wierd when did you get it? I haven't had one since disabling knox on root of stock with supersu and flashing v1 that had all knox removed?

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] SiNJiN76:
Yeah, clean V3. I should have taken a screen shot. Said something like exchange service is needed for Knox and it was a pictured notification. Well, I'll just wait for it to come back (assuming that it will) and then take a screen shot and see if I can do an app info long press on it. It might be just a Samsung ad... It's app store did an update today.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TheCuriousOne:
Hi...thanks for the response...the t-mobile version is what I got from T-Mobile Germany....similiar to the N910t, FireKatN4V3 is a custom rom for the T Mobile Galaxy Note 4 N910T.....but mine is an N910f.

Based on the latest stock Tmobile Base 4.4.4 build N910TUVU1ANJ7
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Do you mean the samsung security policy updates? That Samsung's been pushing out??

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Do you use the same base stock rom...anj7? That's essentially your only hold up tbh...if you guys use the same anj7 base then your good to go...if not no because with 4.4.2 and 4.4.4 you must flash matching baseband and bootloader for the build to run properly

We can always do a custom build for your note if not...pm me if you want a custom build for your personal n4

Although Blocking Mode was turned OFF, Disable Notifications was checked. I turned it on, un-checked it, then turned Blocking Mode OFF again. Seems to have worked. I have Calendar notifications.

3 Flashed TWRP using odin

great rom TY!!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Cantstopwontstop:

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Pinan:
Your information is too limited. Did you follow this?:

1. Flashed 910T2 4.4.4 stock rom using Odin

2. Flashed TWRP using odin

3. Flashed FireKat V21 using TWRP

4. Flashed nadia kernal for 4.4.4 910t using TWRP --- link

Odin does not flash Zip files. You must use a .tar file. You must unzip the zipped Stock file, then odin that.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Cantstopwontstop:
Thank you for the response. Actually you know what I think I used twrp instead of Odin in the first step. Maybe that is the issue? Also my phone model is 910t3. Do you think that could be an issue? I did not see a stock 910t3 link on Sam mobiles site. Thanks again.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] aaldiar:
I'm going to go on a limb and assume you mean on a MM base band/boot loader. You can only flash a MM Rom on a MM bootloader. LP Rom on a LP bootloader, and a KK Rom on a .... Yep, KK bootloader. Hope this clears things up.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Pektomizer:
Thanks aaldiar.

Still getting the hang of flashing roms.

So its possible to downgrade from mm to kk?

Any links of the kk bootloader and the rom itself? I can just flash the kk stock rom itself from mm? Or do i need to flash kk bootloader and then the stock rom itself? Im kinda confuse sorry for being a noob.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] aaldiar:
Refer to [MENTION=3825617]Pinan[/MENTION] 's post on this page. Read, read, read. I recommend reading everything, two or three times even. Learn how to Odin properly, learn what bootloader's are, at least the basics, kernels, etc. This way, when you do flash a Rom, you can deduce the issue quickly yourself. Honestly 9 times out of ten it can be attributed to user error.

I've very little programmer knowledge, but I've been flashing Rom's since the MyTouch 3G Slide days. Doesn't really take a ton of knowledge, just a little effort to learn the basics. Once you learn that, you'll be amazed how simple things really are.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Pektomizer:
Will do more research and will start from pinans post. Thanks a lot for the advice and reply. I appreciate it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] scrappy610:
I believe you can as long as you do not have the 910t3 model. You will have to download the appropriate Odin files. Look for the single Odin file, it's a lot easier then the four individual. You will have to start fresh. What I mean is, Odin the factory kk base, then flash twrp , then you will be able to flash the kk rom of your choice.

Anytime you decide to jump android versions, kk to mm, mm to lp etc. , you will have to flash that Odin base.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Pektomizer:
Thank you for the advice scrappy610. I would definitely do that. Where can i download the kk bb? I want to go back to 4.4.4 the way before. I think its the best stock rom i had before LL came out and messed it up. I never liked LL but inhad no choice since i updated it before until to MM. And now i want to go back and try this firekat rom cause ive been seeing a lot of good positive comments for this rom.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] scrappy610:
Should be in the op but here's the link I have

Anybody tried to change dpi using this ROM?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Pinan:
I set it to stock (640) in the buildprop. No problem. I didn't try any others.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] titusxperia10:
For sure! Hate to waste that much screen real state so my setup is 520 dpi overall and just Sammy apps and lockscreen with stock 640 dpi. Running flawlessly.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] netgar:
May I ask you you what dpi app did you use? I dont wanna go crazy with dpi but 520 would be sweet. I use default 640 and is really boring. Also I wanna make sure I won't end up with bootloop.

Thank you for your time
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] titusxperia10:
My pleasure, I use the Rom toolbox free app from play store, but you can edit the build prop manually, just to lazy to did that :p

Full reboot and with xposed and app settings apk restore default dpi for almost every Samsung app (phone, gallery, SMS, peel, contacts, camera, camera test, etc) and you'll be fine.

520 dpi indeed veeery very sweet! Makes the phone feel like a new one.

Hope I helped out and good luck!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] netgar:
Thank you so much.

I just found some directions. I really don't wanna end up with bootloop. Could u please check if those directions are fine.

Also for some unknown reason I have a problem to grand rom toolbox with superuser. I did it manually from superuser app settings.

Instructions:

At this point you should have ROM Toolbox installed. Open it and grant it root rights if you haven’t already done so. Navigate to the ‘Performance’ tab and go to the build.prop editor. I want you to now search for “ro.sf.lcd_density”. The default is set for 640 and I set mine for 480. This is one of those areas where you’ll want to find your own preference but this is why we started with the nandroid backup. If you don’t like what you see after applying changes, you can always go back. After applying the changes, you’ll be prompted to restart your devices,

DO NOT RESTART YET Restarting the device applies the changes but there are some stock apps that we’ll have to make sure to keep the stock DPI in place. Next we’re going to open the App Settings app. This app does a lot of awesome things but for this task we’re only going to change certain apps DPI. The reason we’re doing this is because some of the stock TouchWiz apps lose functionality or just act weird because of the change in DPI. So what’s going to happen is that we’re going to change the following apps back to the standard DPI of 640:

com.sec.android.app.camera

com.sec.factory.camera

com.android.keyguard

com.sec.android.gallery3d.panorama360view

com.sec.android.ofviewer

com.sec.android.sviewcover

com.sec.phone

com.android.contacts

com.sec.android.gallery3d

com.android.oncallui

com.android.mms

com.android.phone

com.sec.android.mimage.photoretouching

com.sec.android.app.shealth

com.sec.android.filter

com.sec.android.inputmethod

com.sec.android.app.launcher

com.lifevibes.trimapp
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] titusxperia10:
That's exactly the path to follow! Also, once you change back tw apps to stock 640 in app settings, make sure to mark the "Apply also to Widget" just below the dpi entry box. That way you won't have any problems at all. In an additional note, the My files app seems to misbehave with 520 but with 540 plays absolutely fine, SNote seems also to need 640 to play nice. And last but no least the inputmethod seems to be careless about the dpi you choose.

Let me know if I can assist you more. Cheers!
