I see you didn't flash the kernel before you booted, missed step there....after the SuperSU flash, re-flash the kernel.

DO NOT BOOT THE ROM, UNLESS YOU HAVE FLASHED THE KERNEL ONE MORE TIME BEFORE YOU BOOT!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AxAtAx:
No sir, that is the 5.0 kernel for the N4, problem is the kernel link is among the posts in that thread, and NOT IN THE OP, it is beta thats why, KT was smart there....
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] glensta:
Thank you Ax, I'll try that way, appreciate it
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AxAtAx:
I hope you don't think I was yelling at you, but I have to say that again. sorry:D
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] focr06:
wont boot

i tried everything step by step, im on tmobil, and it wont boot. firsr flashed the kernel then flashed the rom, then no kernal and just flashed the rom, no luck, using ktoonz 5 for note 4. if the phone is connected, the charging while off animation comes up after it says GN4 screen. suggestions?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] serv380:
I too tried the exact same thing and even flash the kernel twice and I keep getting the black screen. don't know what I'm doing wrong as I follow all instructions posted in the op.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] glensta:
Nah man, you're good, thanks! :good:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ManSb41:
I waited until the screen went black (it powered off automatically), then I waited AGAIN for 10 minutes, then I turned it on and it went to the boot animation and setup started. If it's not working, try wiping everything, flash rom, boot, if it doesn't work flash supersu, kernel, wipe cache/dalvik, power off phone, wait 10 minutes, then boot and it should work. That's what worked for me.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ttt3008:
[/QUOTE]

1.Wipe the phone 3 times (Dalvik Cache, System, Data, and Cache)

2.Flash Vision-X 5.0 rom

3. Important: FLASHING THE KERNEL

Kernel I use is the one included in the rom. (KT-SGS5-LP5.0-TW-G900-01 3.4.0)

Have many 5.0 kernels for your device handy at all times, some work better than others.

Even reverting back to and earlier release of a kernel may work better on on any given device.

4. Reboot

Wait 12-15min – DO IT, for the best results (I wait until the screen times out)

Select Language, Setup wifi, setup name, setup device name, SKIP ALL OTHER PROMPTS.

Now the phone is at the home screen, setup your google account. REBOOT!

Update Titanium Backup from the market, (A MUST or it will not work properly with Lollipop)

Finish the setup, Debloat the rom to your liking and reboot.

Now update ALL APPS FROM MARKET!!! IMPORTANT!

This rom now is running perfect for me, no problems that I have seen yet! Very Stable!

Now you have a PROBLEM FREE ROM! Enjoy!

It does not get easier than this…..SIMPLE!

[/QUOTE]

I believe you Flash the kernel after you install the rom. Hope this helps...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ewells38:
Guys, here are the steps I did, and the Odex v2 ROM booted up no problem after about 18 minutes.

1 - Do a NAND Backup (IMPORTANT) !!!!!

2 - Full Wipe (Wiped 3 times)

3 - Flash the Odex v2 ROM

4 - Flash the SuperSU.zip

5 - Flash the 5.0 Kernel

6 - DO NOT REBOOT yet.

7 - Wipe Davik/Cache

8 - Flash the 5.0 Kernel again.

9 - Reboot phone

Doing setup and testing stuff now, yo Ax, Looks good dude. :good: Again, thanks for your great work and generosity.

Also, Data and WiFi appear to both be working.

1 - Recognized my SSIDs during setup and I was able to connect to my WiFi (Wireless Network)

2 - Reset the APN settings.

3 - Disconnected from Wifi (turned off) and the phone connected to Data without an issue (Able to surf the Internet)

Looking great so far, Removing some of the AT&T Bloat now.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] loonie01:
What 5.0 kernel are people flashing? I used the one that comes with the ROM.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TheUndertaker21:
i followed this steps and it boots up for me less than 5 mns lol T mobile note 4

Thanks man
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] glensta:
followed ur steps exactly, screen is black atm - so ur saying just wait say 15-20 min's? Reason I ask is that it seems like the phone is off
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] CB620:
Thats because it is off.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ewells38:
No, the phone continued the boot process right after I rebooted after flashing.

I suggest trying the following:

1 - Make sure you have at least a 90% charge (I started with a 100% charge)

2 - Go back into recovery (TWRP or what ever you may be using)

3 - (I hope you already have a NAND Backup)

4 - Do a full wipe

5 - Flash the ROM again.

6 - Flash the SUperSU

7 - Flash the 5.0 kernel

8 - DO NOT REBOOT yet...

9 - Wipe Davik/Cache

10 - Flash the 5.0 kernal again.

11 - Reboot the phone

12 - Plug the phone into the charger.

Hope it will boot for you.

13 - If it does not, try removing the battery for a moment.

Then re-insert the battery and powe on the Phone. Hopefully it will boot up for you. If it still does not, then perhaps it will be best if you wait for newer kernels to be released as Ax noted.

Hope this helps..
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TheUndertaker21:
i spoke way too soon lol

after set up it rebooted and it kept going bootloop lol

i wipe cache and it boots up now. gonna wait and see
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] glensta:
It Booted! Lol

The one I'm flashing from that thread is this: KT-NOTE4-LP5.0-TW-N910-03.02.2015

Hope it's the right one Lol

Thanks for your help, I'm havin no luck. I'll wait to see what else comes down the pike.

Edit: As others have said (and my impatience always kicks me in the ass), I let the phone sit after finishing my flash this time (15 minutes) and it booted up.

Thanks all :D
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mocsab:
I know that Ax tried to answer the question about Battery and I know you asked about Lollipop in General - but I have seen others specifically ask about Battery on this ROM and in my opinon that is such a silly question to ask at this point... Personally I don't care about battery at this point - what difference does it make anyway - this rom is going to be revised - improved - added on - stuff removed - etc - and only then will there be any way to make a real judgement about how well or how poor the battery is.

I am not jumping on you- but I see this question so often and I honestly laugh when I do especially when the question about battery is asked so soon after the rom has been made availablle - i mean come on -the rom has been up and running less than 24 hours - can anyone really say how battery is?

Sorry if I sound like I am preaching - I don';t mean to - and I have to stress here I am not a developer - just a guy who likes to flash roms and find ways to make my NOte 4 better - I just personally think any question about battery usage is totally premature - and best saved for when we have a fully stable and customized rom - just my two cents - don't take them personally - they are not intended to be...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] warchyld77:
Just want to say regardless of whatever anyone says you're still awesome! Vision roms are always great and just the simple fact that you worked on getting us lollipop makes you even more awesome and I'm usually a hater lololololol
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Oncet:
I had the same problem of black screen after reboot. But now somehow I got it working. It is showing samsung logo and ,My galaxy Note Edge at the right side.

Only thing I did different this time is after I installed ROM using TWRP, I wiped the cache and delvik. Rebooted device.

AT first It showed me black screen. I rebooted again using power button and then it started showing the logo.

By the way I am on Canadian N910w8 with KK 4.4.4 , Baseband - OA1 .

Update: Waited for 25 minutes But cannot pass the logo screen.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Cubfan99:
I finally got it to boot after lots of tries using the above steps. Kept getting either black screen (turning off) or boot loops. Someone said let it rest 10-15 minutes, so I did. Then booted again to a black screen. One more try... I went into Recovery and cleared Dalvik/Cache and shut down. Tried again to boot, and it came up.

Brightness at 100% (not adjustable), phone froze and then rebooted shortly after setup. Boot-looped while on charger after that. Pulled the charger cable, and it came back up. Seems somewhat sluggish and don't think I could feel safe continuing to use it. Might settle down after awhile to become smooth.

Still, a pretty remarkable piece of work that allowed me to take a tour of what's coming. I'm on AT&T on an unlocked phone, so an AT&T ROM suits me just fine except for the huge amount of bloat they add. Yikes.

Thanks for the work you've put into this. I enjoyed having the hands-on tour of Lollipop, and I can now happily wait for the first official release ROM.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AxAtAx:
Every single new person CAN boot this rom, let me clear this up, EVERYONE can boot this rom, either you guys just don't read (#1 xda rule) or you people just do not comprehend or you are seriously lazy, I ask 3 times in the 2 days, STOP MESSAGING ME with these dumb, dumb, boot questions, serious. I have booted the rom over 50times testing and building, yes, every now and then it would not boot, frustration sets in, unlike you guys, you give up and start pointing fingers, if you know anything about custom roms, they are not like that s*** iPuke phone where it's idiot proof, and everything works perfect. If you want a perfect running custom rom, you point me to it right now, I have tried them ALL that work on my device, and I have yet to find one that is perfect. They do not exist, that is what makes this hobby of ours special, if they all were perfect, I would not be talking now about it. You people need to get off of my ass. I am growing tired of the same old story. If someone does NOT like my rom, go somewhere else and keep your comments to yourself, BUT, if you want to learn, then this is one of the places to be, there are MANY good, helpful people in this thread, and if you would keep your mouth shut and read, there are many many tricks people use to run many roms, that you guys can benefit from, if you want to run the rom bad enough, you will find a way, I did and do. I have been watching the thread ALL day, and if you look back, I saw many "I can't boot" and "where is the kernel" all the tools you need are posted in the OP, so quit cluttering up the progress of this rom with these type questions. DO NOT POST unless it is productive to this rom!

The answers to most of your questions are right here in this thread!

Samsung sure did a smart thing with their devices, they made them now where you would have to blow them up to hard brick the phone, back a few years, I believe before the s4, anytime you tried to do what we are doing in this thread right now, you would hardbrick the device, so you had to READ, or you just made a coaster for your coffee table, and it would cost some $$$ to get your phone back up. I would have seen by reading this thread the last 3 days, MANY bricked phones, and then it would cut down these irritating I can't boot posts, because bricked phone=no xda. Start reading and and quit asking these hand held questions!

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] SelfElevated2:
Hey ax thanks man. Was wondering why no devs were grabbing roms from international variants or just aside from our own tmo. On the s4 we used roms from like 4 different s4 variants without issue which was nice because different variants get updates first
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AxAtAx:
because we do NOT have a compatible kernel that will run those roms properly, I was quick on releasing the intl roms for s4, s5, n3, but with this kernel issue, our hands are tied for us running those roms, trust me, I want those roms more than any of you, you can bet right now, that there WILL be a VisionX Intl rom, when the first one works, there will be many more.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] simple23227:
Its a beast!

Thanks AxAtAx, rom is running perfectly.

First attempt and it booted no problem. Got really hot the first time but it has been cool and smooth after. Been using for about 5 hours now, calls, text, MMS, WIFI, LTE, maps, web browsing, dpi change, all work well. No hitcups, no error, no problem so far.

Battery life is about the same with kitkat. But I think its cause Lollipop has a massive memory leak. An XDA dev has a fix but it needs xposed and xposed is broken on TW lollipop atm.

Now all we need is xposed for TW lollipop and we r golden :D

PS1: brightness setting is still broken, using lux for now.

PS2: I used the stock tmobile apn too. All i did was went to the apn setting, change epc.tmobile.com to fast.tmobile.com and i got 4g LTE, took 30 seconds to edit and another 30 seconds to lock on 4g LTE.

Thanks AxAtAx.

To the people who can't get past the Samsung booting screen...

What rom did you come from?

I know most people can run this but i think i see the issue here...

I'm running TWRP 2.8.4... I try to flash this rom... I'm not new to flashing and I'm quite persistent...

Still no boot.. No nothing..

After i wipe everything again.. I use my backup to restore my "System, Data"... Those are the only ones i check off usually...

I power on the phone and it happens again... Samsung boot then turns off..

I have to wipe again.. Flash DynamicKat... Wipe again.. Then restore to be able to boot...

I think it has to do with the rom you came from.

Try turning off your phone, wait ten minutes, pull the battery, put it back in and try rebooting - you should get passed the boot animation and into the setup.
