This is what the other user said.

[MENTION=1380660]iB4STiD[/MENTION], I wanted to let anyone know if case you run into boot loops for some reason out of the blue, its most likely the samsung security policy that is silently being updated by Samsung. This conflicts with SU and therefore leaves your device unbootable unless you have a permissive kernel.

I have uninstalled the app via TB and hopefully the issue will stop coming back. Read here for more details:

How come i am getting signal drops on my mobile data? I am at -115dbm. How do i fix this i found a great rom but i am going out of the country and i need a solid rom.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] force70:
No rom includes a baseband so its not the rom, could just be bad signal/network issues.

What are some steps i could try to resolve this?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] force70:
Have you checked your APN to make sure its correct?

Other than that if you just odined COI4 it could simply be the baseband just isnt working well for you.

I dont know what firmware you were on before or if the baseband was updated on COI4.

I have a N910W8 on COK3 - can I flash this ROM directly without downgrading the FW to COI4 first?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Brenneke:
OK, message received.....read! Will flash full Telus COI4 FW, then TWRP, then ROM. Sounds right........right?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Brenneke:
I am all flashed up and running - this ROM is incredible........snappy and smooth, Adaway built in, bloat removed, calling, data and everything else working 100%. For any other Canadians interested in rooting their N910W8 on 5.1.1, you will not regret going with Emporia!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Brenneke:
Not sure if anyone has already figured this out or not, did not find in searching thread - sub symbols are always showing on keyboard buttons even with Swiftkey, no way to turn them off in settings. Saw in CSC file mention of specific languages only so...........changed keyboard language to UK English and no more sub symbols!

This works for us Canucks ie colour vs color etc.

I could also do a little more reading and learn how to modify the CSC file to get what I want.........gotta like simple solutions though!

Floating Messages

Here is a floating message zip for the T/W8 big thanks to [MENTION=5829833]a.raul[/MENTION] for the original zip. I repacked it in a flashable zip that works on our phones and themed it up.

Two things you have to remember it has a csc file that will reorder the Quick Panel and you have to delete the system/priv-app/SecMms_Candy folder (or rename it ) as it replaces the folder with the note 5 mms apk.

Two versions themed and non themed both can be found here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=40789

I have not tested this on a 910T as I don't have one, but as the W8 and T are the same model it should work

Is anyone having issues with the Gear VR on Note 4 in canada using this Rom?

My headset worked, asked me (in a vr environment) to remove the headset and install the necessary apps. once complete, it had me re-insert my phone into the headset, only to display a single image of the welcome screen and then hang on the health and safety warning, (that was also in 2d and only viewable in its entirety without the headset on.

if I remove the phone, within a brief second it shows "calibrating" before it realizes it has been disconnected. and the oculus software shuts down.

I appreciate any help anyone could provide, I too hate the idea of the money having been wasted on something that no longer works at all.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] guruguido:
Just wanted to let you know this ROM is just flawless, not one issue on my Note 4 SM-N910W8.

It's a keeper no doubt.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ciscostud:
Canadian Note 4 user here. I've tried many roms here on xda and without a doubt This Rom is the best I've used with my gear vr.

Try to do a full wipe.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Brenneke:
I agree. Also a very easy way to root on 5.1.1........just flash this ROM!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ryderz17:
Hello everyone...so I clean flashed the ROM and everything seemed great but then I got two oddities:

1. the secondary keys on the keyboard vanished (they were there for a bit and then gone after a couple of days and can't figure out how to get them back)

2. when I connect to my car stereo it's not letting me turn on "connect to media" which it did on my S4 w/ GE ROM.

Appreciate everyone's help and thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Brenneke:
I might be able to help with #1. What do you mean by secondary keys.......the symbols that share the same square with the letters? Whar language is your keyboard set to?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] 32dave:
So I made a transparent wall paper for my background and the battery life has jumped dramatically

As for the secondary symbol check for this line, I have shortened mine for english but could be a lot longer otherwise add this line to csc/other file <CscFeature_Sip_EnableSymbolInSecondary>en_US;en_GB</CscFeature_Sip_EnableSymbolInSecondary>

Figured it out, wanam xposed was conflicting with the keyboard settings. What i meant by secondary keys was the symbols on the keyboard alive the letters (when you long press).

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Brenneke:
Oh good. How is Xposed working? I have been afraid to install as I I don't want to compromise my set up........all working perfectly on this ROM!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] WaterMan!:
I am a little confused as well. In one of the changelogs it said that Wanam's Xposed was updated. Is it baked into the ROM somehow without XPOSED framework? Just like the user above me, I love the setup and really do not want to risk reduction in performance or battery life by installing XPOSED, but I have a couple of things that really bother me. Perhaps you guys can help me out:

1) Need to remove the volume warning when I connect to my car and put the phone volume above 75%. Every time I reboot, I have to accept the pop up dialog to get full volume

2) Second place but also critical. Every time I enable bluetooth in Quick Settings, I get a pop up asking which device to connect to and I have to hit cancel. Utterly useless as my device auto connects. Its really horrible that I have to deal with these two issues every single time I get into my car.

Is there anything that can be done without Xposed? This ROM is completely perfect, and if I can just fix these two "features" I'll be set!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ryderz17:
So far so good...I flashed Wanam's unofficial xposed framework v79. The official framework release send my phone into bootloop.

Wifi and bluetooth work fine, and so far so do all the little tweaks.

again man thanks
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] whittikins:
I've read conflicting information on this, so can you please clarify? I have the TMO (910T) model and have firmware/baseband ANK4 (latest). I'm running Arcadia 2.0, which I actually just flashed last night :).

Can I full wipe in recovery and then flash Arcadia 3.0 and be good to go? I've read many times that the firmware/baseband needs to match the ROM, but in this case the ROM is using the Canadian firmware/baseband so it's not possible on the 910T. Is it bad to run Arcadia on the 910T because the versions don't match?

Thanks for the ROM!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] force70:
You can because of the custom kernel included. I can flash any rom based on Tmo firmware but have to use a custom kernel, since one comes with the rom its not problem for Tmo users to run this.

go to post #2..

the alternative kernels explained

if ur a n901w8 user ( like u r .. ) u can use the n910w8 stock kernel..

if ur a tmobile n910t user then u use the n910t stock kernel

tmobile n91ot and canadian n910w8 users can both use twistedumbrella stock'ish kernel!

:good:

odd, not on my end .. did u clean install? are u using a kernel tweaking app?

check out post #2 and try a different kernel for u device, as explained above :good:

hmm, have u tried to flash the bootloader in my

bootloader section

then flash the stock kernel for n910w8?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] iB4STiD:
request to canadian n910w8 users!

ok guys, this way i have a better understanding of this, i own a n910t tmobile note 4, so i cant test certain things for canadian users so heres what i need to know

1. some of u have owned note 3's & note 4's, have u guys been able to use a custom rom with the stock kernel for that fw?

2. if not, try the following for me! note do not attempt if u do not know how to downgrade ur fw via odin!!

a. place my rom on ur external sdcard

b. boot to download mode, now go here to follow the guide to flash the baseband and bootloader of this fw in v3

c. after ur device reboots.. boot to custom recovery.. follow the clean install guide in the q&a section!

d. flash my rom

e. reboot

let me know if the above lets u guys use the stock kernel for this rom!!.. this is good to, this way i know if i should be even have an alternative kernel section and baseband and bootloader section :good:

Ive never been able to get a stock kernel to work on a tmo rom on the n4.

When i first got my n4 i made a backup of the stock rom in twrp. Flashed a tmo rom...restored my kernel back up only from twrp and rebooted into a bootloop.

Ive always had to run a custom kernel in my n4 unless the rom was based on Canadian firmware with the stock kernel baked in.

That said ive yet yet to flash rom then try and flash the stock kernel via odin.

I'm on tekhd rom right now but I've been having unlock issues and constant freezes so I'm looking for a rom closer to stock and not a mix of different phones.

Thanks in advance

So, if it is highly likely that we will not see any further updates - does anyone recommend a "good, stable" MM ROM that is Canadian friendly?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] WaterMan!:
Although Marshmallow is out, this ROM is MUCH faster. Smoother scrolling, faster transitions, just faster overall. Plus it still has all the great features that Samsung neutered or removed in Marshmallow, such as a functioning Smart Select. I actually downgraded back to this ROM, and it is just better in every way over Marshmallow.

I decided to share with you guys that I ported over the AOSP Notifaction Shade Theme for use on Emporia ROM. Honestly, this phenomenal theme was the only thing I missed on MM, we no longer have to struggle now! The theme is made by supergrobi94, give him a thanks or donation for his amazing work. You can find his work HERE. I simply used his help and ported it to Emporia. Use at your own risk, all liability is placed on the user.

To install it, simply unzip the folder. Then replace the SystemUI.apk with the new one, it is located in /system/priv-app/SystemUI/SystemUI.apk

I personally use Solid Explorer, but any root-enabled file browser should do the trick. Make sure permissions are properly set as well, and then reboot your phone!

Some before/after screenshots are included! If anyone knows how to create a flashable zip of it, let me know!

Cheers
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stillriza:
I second that. Just went back to this ROM again after trying a few different MM Roms. This one def feels faster and is rock stable.. and Xposed works as it should, along with viper.

any functionality lost after installing this phone?

Hello,

After researching the web for a stable & speedy rom for my canadian note 4 (SM-N910W8), I have decided on installing this one because it is popular and the users tend to like it. The users in this thread say that this rom is stable and speedy. I'd like to confirm whether I will lose any functionality prior to wiping my device that users feel they wish they had. For example, I want to still be able to use my S Pen after installing this rom. From what I read, I should still be able to use my S PEN after I have installed this rom. I am more than happy to let go of all the samsung bloatware that slowed my phone down. Also, I don't care about wifi calling because it is a canadian phone that does not support wifi calling. Please let me know asap because I want to install this tonight.

Thank you.

P.S. my baseband version is N910W8VLU1BOE2. I will be updating my baseband and bootloader using the instructions given on the first page of this thread.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] buyabook:
boot loop

My plan was to update the bootloader and baseband before I install EMPORIA v3 5.1.1 VLU1COI4. I followed the steps below but my note 4 (SM-N910W8) is currently in a boot loop after the step where I start loading the baseband and bootloader file in ODIN. It keeps restarting after the Samsung Galaxy note 4 Powered by Android screen. I can't check the baseband version under settings because my phone is in a bootloop. Prior to to updating the bootloader/baseband my baseband version was N910W8VLU1BOE2 and my android version was 5.0.1

What can I do now to fix this?

★ UNPLUG YOUR DEVICE

★ TURN YOUR PHONE COMPLETELY OFF

★ START YOUR PHONE IN DOWNLOAD MODE - PRESS VOL DOWN + HOME + POWER BUTTONS

PRESS VOL UP TO CONTINUE

★ NOW CONNECT YOUR PHONE TO YOUR COMPUTER - DO NOT CONNECT YOUR PHONE BEFORE THIS STEP!

★ OPEN ODIN 3.09 ON YOUR PC - MAKE SURE YOU'RE USING 3.09, OLDER VERSIONS WON'T WORK CORRECTLY!

★ CLICK ON THE 'CP' BUTTON, AND LOAD IN YOUR BASEBAND.TAR.MD5 FILE FOR YOUR MODEL

★ CLICK ON THE 'BL' BUTTON, AND LOAD IN YOUR BOOTLOADER.TAR.MD5 FILE FOR YOUR MODEL

★ DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING ELSE - YOU CAN BRICK YOUR PHONE IF YOU CHOOSE OTHER SETTINGS IN ODIN

★ CLiCK ON THE START BUTTON

★ WAIT TILL IT FINISH'S FLASHING.

★ YOUR PHONE WILL REBOOT AUTOMATICALLY AFTER FLASHING.

★ CHECK AFTER FLASHING: SETTINGS/ABOUT DEVICE/ BASEBAND

★ NOW FLASH TWRP RECOVERY, VIA ODIN!!

★ NOW UR READY TO FLASH MY ROM! FOLLOW THE INSTALL GUiDE HERE!

rom install successful

Even though I had a bootloop, I went ahead and flashed the rom in TWRP and it's working nicely. So far no issues and it feels faster than before. Is there a rom that is stable and faster than this one?
