I think I did true version. I havent had a chance to try to the other one.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mjlewis0102:
My Dev Device is on a brown truck

Cant wait to get it and try this Rom. AWESOME WORK!!!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] zman2107:
I'm on false one and running like a charm thanks for the rom
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Romans8vs1:
I've tried both versions (true & false) and continue to get a force close on Google search. I've updated all of the apps that needed to be updated, cleared the Playstore's data and cache, cleared Google searches data and cache, and force stopped it. The only thing that keeps it from force closing is turning it off under settings.

Is that the only fix? Thank you in advance for your help.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
Google Search

I updated the false Rom and Google Search is fixed. But if you go to system/priv-app and delete Velvet_for_T-3.8.apk reboot. Then go to the Play Store and install Google Search. This will save you from having to re-install the Rom.

Sorry for the inconvenience!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Romans8vs1:
No problem at all sir!

I think I am going to download the rom again and do a fresh install. I am also noticing a significant delay in installing/updating apps through the playstore. Any ideas on what that could be?

Thank you in advance for all of your help.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
Play Store

After you install a new Rom the Note 4 will run an index app for quite a while. Let the Rom settle down for a few hours and it should go away.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Romans8vs1:
Sounds good. I'll do that and let you know if I have any more issues. Thanks again for your prompt help. Happy Thanksgiving!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tfly212:
Appreciate all your hard work on this...donation sent. Have a couple of beers on me.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
Thank You

Thank you very much!! Happy Thanksgiving!!!

There will be more awesome things to come for the Verizon Note 4!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tfly212:
You are very welcome. Have a great Thanksgiving as well.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Romans8vs1:
Everything is running great now. Like you said, it just needed to settle in a little. However, I seem to be missing long press for symbols on my keyboard. For instance, I used to be able to long press the d button for an exclamation point. Is there a setting for this that I need to change? Thanks in advance for any assistance.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] shpotik:
Just flashed this bad boy! Super excited! Thanks a lot!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] HotLZ:
Awesome rom, appreciate the work. The only issue I'm having is a FC when clicking on the microphone in google search.

Edit - never mind. Saw the post about deleting the velvet apk. did that and re-installed, good to go.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
Look in system/priv-app and delete Velvet_For_T_3.8.apk. Then go to the play store and search for Google Search and install it. That will fix it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Romans8vs1:
Good morning. Any idea on my keyboard question? Have a blessed day!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
Keyboard

Which keyboard are you running? Could you post a screenshot?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Romans8vs1:
I'm us the stock keyboard. As far as I know I haven't changed any settings that would have removed the long press options. Thanks again for your assistance
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
Are you running Xposed? If so disable all modules reboot and try keyboard.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Romans8vs1:
Yes, I am running xposed mods. Turned them off, rebooted, and am still missing the long press options. I even uninstalled xposed, rebooted, and they are still not there. Any ideas?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
We're you running Wanam? If so search his threads for solution. It has nothing to do with Rom. Or reflash the Rom and check keyboard before you install Xposed.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Romans8vs1:
Yes, i was running wanam. I wasnt aware that it would cause issues with the keyboard. Sorry to have bothered you with this. Thanks again for your help! Have a blessed day!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] laughingcolors:
Finally this rom is running smooth- took awhile though and a couple installation attempts. also enabled ART too. when the mods based rom does arrive will it be cool to dirty flash it over? thanks for your help in making this rom !
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] zman2107:
I wasn't going to bother today. Happy thanksgiving. When you have time can you help me get a flashlight toggle in my pull down menu since you seem to be the man getting stuff done for us. Thanks again loving the rom. [emoji1]
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
Yes you can dirty flash the modded Rom. I may also do an Aroma installer Rom and that will require a full wipe. Happy Thanksgiving
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
Already have the flashlight toggle mod done. Lol. Will post soon.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jam2315:
Gonna flash 2nite and set everything up again lol. Was just rooted w/TWRP and running xposed for everything. I'll wipe everything bt SD and flash this rom. Play store hasn't been working for as of today for some odd reason
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tfly212:
How was xposed working with the stock rooted ROM?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jam2315:
I haven't had any problems as of yet besides play store deal. Tether works and all the tweaks I did so it's fine. Not going to worry ab play store until I wipe and flash the deoxed debloated stock rom tho
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tfly212:
Cool, thanks. I am on the deodexed debloated rom now...will probably do a nandroid of it and then give xposed a shot. The ROM is great but be patient for the first couple of hours...as mentioned in some of the posts above there are mentions of lags, etc...it is true, but goes away. Been running very nicely all day today.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jam2315:
Thanks I was gonna be sure and be patient lol. I read about the lag and such. I'll give it time to settle in before I start doing too much to it. Did u flash true or false one?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tfly212:
The True version...got a few FCs on google search and amazon kindle at first but they went away.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] HotLZ:
Anyone else getting a force close using stock browser? I thought maybe i deleted some bloatware i shouldn't have, but i reimaged and im still getting it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Romans8vs1:
I've been running xposed with wanam and xblast. The only issue I've had is that I lost my long press symbols. I found another xposed mod called Samsung Alt Symbols that gets the long press symbols back.

This rom is running great!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
Internet Browser

Mine is working fine. Could have been a bad download. Copy this to system/app overwrite old app and reboot. Let us know how it works out.

So do we accept the automatic security update or not....just got notification
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tfly212:
I declined it...it's probably nothing but I don't want to be the one to post "oh crap, I now have a retail N4".
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Romans8vs1:
Is there something that we can freeze or uninstall that will stop the security update notification?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:

How to disable the annoying Security Update Notification

Using Titanium Backup look for the app "Security policy updates SPD_v2_1408_5_2" and freeze it
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Qzic:
I was unable to install any apps using the Amazon Appstore. The download would always fail. I was able to resolve the issue by disabling the existing Appstore and then downloading and installing it again.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bobbarker2:
Hey EMS, I downloaded your ROM to look at before flashing onto my DE N4 and in your build.prop I found it showing N910VOYU1ANI1 and not N910VVRU1ANI1 like this thread has it labeled. Did something not get updated?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
This is the official version that came on the DE from Samsung. I corrected it. It should read N910VOYU1ANI1.

Thanks for catching my typo!!!

Cant seem to get S Health to open up. any ideas?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
S Health

Are you running True version? If so you need false version for S Health to work. Just flash this to fix. Quick change to false zip http://d-h.st/rKy
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jam2315:
So galaxy gear 2? Whose gonna test that with this lol.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bdorr1105:
So is this happening to anyone else in the playstore? Icons are not all loading... I took the security update I don't have issues I am rooted still. It won't touch the bootloader
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mjlewis0102:
Thanks man! But why is that an .exe file and my windows is seeing it that as a virus? can you re upload it as a zip?

Google Play Store Issue Isolated to This ROM

Alright, so after messing around the entire day, this Google Play issue I am having has been isolated to this ROM and at least for me up to this point.

Here is the backbrief:

1. Received My Galaxy Note 4 Developer Edition Yesterday

2. Ran it Stock for a while and tested all functions

3. Added all accounts (Everything Worked)

4. Installed Custom TWRP

5. Nandroid Backup of Stock Non Rooted Untouched Phone

6. Rooted Device

7. Nandroid Backup of Rooted Stock ROM from Factory

8. Ran device as it was to ensure everything worked

9. Downloaded This ROM, the false version

10. Followed Instructions in the OP to the letter as we were warned to do so

11. Upon Flash Completion, set up ROM

12. Added Google Account and began to install Aps

13. Noticed not all ICONS were loading for the App in the Playstore

14. Called a buddy asked him to check the App store (Working fine)

15. Called my brother asked him to do the same (Working fine)

16. Changed my DNS to 8.8.8.8 (No Fix)

17. Nothing Resolved it either on WiFi or 4G LTE

18. Did a Nand Restore of Pure Stock - Play Store was WORKING PROPERLY

19. Did a Nand Restore of Pure Stock with Root - Play Store was WORKING PROPERLY

20. Did a clean Flash of the False version. Play Store PROBLEM CAME BACK

21. Did a clean Flash of True version to see if that made a difference. SAME PROBLEM EXISTS

22. PLEASE HELP!!!!

I attached the pictures of what is happening, please tell me someone else has the same problem
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
Host

Go to system/etc look for a file called "Host" rename it to Hosts1.bak Then look for a file called Hosts.bak and rename it to Hosts. This is an ad blocking Host file. Now your Play Store icons will show and you will now get all the annoying ad's.

Nothing wrong with the Rom.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] shpotik:
I have the same issue on this ROM
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
The fix is directly above your post:eek:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bdorr1105:
Dude, thank you so much its finally how I want it to be..Thanks for this ROM and thanks for the response...I really appreciate that so much....

My next issue is the flashlight Toggle....I just re flashed both ZIPs for the flashlight toggle, it doesnt show up as a usable option though
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
1) Download sqlite editor app. I got it from here.

2) Open the app and give it root permissions. It should populate a list.

3) Scroll and Tap the "Settings Storage"

4) Tap "Settings.db"

5) Tap "System"

6) Scroll down until you find "notification_panel_active_app_list", tap to highlight it. I noticed its a little hard to get it highlighted because it seems to want to highlight the one under it. So you might have to tap the one right above it to get it highlighted. Make sure its the notification_panel_active_app_list, and NOT the notification_panel_default_active_app_list. I picked the wrong one the first time and it didnt work.

7) Once it is highlighted tap the phones menu button.

8) Tap "Edit Record"

9) You'll see a list of all the toggles that are currently enabled to show in notification area.

10) At the bottom of the list add ; and the words Flashlight then another ;. So it will look like this at the end. ;TouchSensitivity;Flashlight; Then press Save.

11) Reboot and you should have a Flashlight toggle now. You can now use the edit feature and move it anywhere you want in the list of toggles.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bdorr1105:
Thanks again, I got it to show up, but I can not edit its position? is that normal?

---------- Post added at 01:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:13 PM ----------

So far this is when I see it and when I go to edit.... No where to be found
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tfly212:
I couldn't edit it either...it shows up as the last toggle. You can manually change the location with SQLlite...instead of putting ;Flashlight; at the end of the string, insert it into the list where you want it to show up, save and reboot. I now have it as my 7th toggle...just off the screen and accessed with a swipe.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bdorr1105:
Yea I tried that and it did not show up, not sure why. It will if its last, but that's it

EDIT*** Worked the 2nd time around dude thanks so much bro appreciate that
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tfly212:
I edited the DB in two places...that might have allowed me to move it...I added ;Flashlight; to the end of the string in _id 281 notification_panel_active_app_list_for_reset and then placed ;Flashlight; in the desired spot in _id 1809 notification_panel_active_app_list...saved then rebooted.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bdorr1105:
LOL OMG everytime I make some headway something else seems to cause me an issue.....FYI I am so close. Anyways bro I really appreciate this ROM and srry I keep seeming to have these issues....No Complaints I love the ROM just tweaking it.

Ok, I do not know where this issue came from, I am unable to download to the phone. It denies me everytime. I tried downloading from Dropbox and Google Drive and it it exports, but when it gets to 100% it will not save it like there is a Write protection that will not allow me to write to the SD Card? Any help will be greatly appreciated

Just updated Flashlight Mod. Go to Mods OP download flash and let us know how it works.

Thanks
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bdorr1105:
I am about to flash it? Do we still do those steps below. I am on a clean install since i lost write capability from dropbox and Drive to my phone
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
Just flash and try it
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bdorr1105:
Ok, this is on a Clean install of False, I flashed the Flashight Toggle and Official updated Zip, nothing else, I do not see the toggle at all
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
Do the settings.db with SQLite. Since you did a fresh Rom you lost it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bdorr1105:
Ok, I completed that and it fixed the problem...Thanks!!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bdorr1105:
I finally am all set up again with everything working. Thanks for the ROM and nice little mods. Selling the retail back and getting the developer edition was the right choice
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Qzic:
I can't get the Flashlight toggle to show up. I edited the active and reset lists with SQLite and flashed the app. No joy.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bdorr1105:
Did you flash the latest zip the OP posted? Did you double check you edited the correct list in dB? One is strictly for the reset order
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Qzic:
Yes and Yes. Then potential issues might come from the first time I tried to flash the zip, I had a partial download and the flash failed (flash failed error in TWRP). I redownloaded, confirmed the checksum, and flashed that successfully.

When editing the active list with SQLite, I put Flashlight in the fifth spot. Autocomplete added a space after Flashlight and the semicolon. After rebooting and not seeing the toggle, I double checked and removed the space. After another reboot, still no toggle.

I then tried editing the reset list, moving it to the end of the active list, and flashing the zip again.

That's when I gave up.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bobbarker2:
Hmm, just did a clean flash of this and getting tons of FCs on stuff like Maps and Google+. Experiencing alot of lag too. Anyone else encounter this?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tfly212:
This is noted early in the thread...you may need to update certain apps like G+, maps, etc to get rid of the FCs and there will be some slowness for the first few hours. It goes away and soon everything will run very smoothly.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bdorr1105:
Yes that is normal, however I don't remember any lag... Let the ROM settle, all of Google Apps are way out of date and you will need to update play services the OP has mentioned this a ton?

As far as the LAG, has your phone ever lagged before? How is it lagging? Do apps happen to be installing when you are also doing other things?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bobbarker2:
Ok I missed that, thanks.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
lollipop

If anyone gets a hold of lollipop firmware for Verizon Note 4. Official or Leak. Let me know so I can build a flashable lollipop Rom for us Dev Phone users.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bdorr1105:
Sounds awesome, what about the bootloader, can you run Lollipop off of the jb bootloader? I am just curious
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
Not sure yet. I see it is not possible on the Sprint S5
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bobbarker2:
Opening apps, the animations, basically everything lagged like crazy. Only things I flash were securestorage=false rom zip and supersu 2.36. And I cancelled out play store installation, tried restarting and playing with settings.. couldn't make a big impact. Will try again later.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] wooddale:
Getting my dev edition tomorrow cant wait. Have you debloated this rom also? Thanks
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bdorr1105:
It's probably not the ROM, sounds like a bad phone, bad hardware. Bad apple in the bunch.... Most people who had this issue had to return their phone for another... Hope it smooths have not had that issue at all or ever
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
Do a TWRP restore of the stock Rom. The backup I hope you did right after you installed TWRP. Run the stock Rom and check for lag. If gone. Power down and boot recovery. Once in TWRP flash my Rom false version. Make sure you do a full wipe. But not sd card. I would also download my Rom again and copy fresh to sd card.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EMSpilot:
No this is stock deodexed. De Bloat coming soon.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bobbarker2:
Yeah I restored to my stock non-root backup and there's no lag so I don't think it's the phone. I'll try redownloading and do another full wipe.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bdorr1105:
I saw the comments about the update, the one most of us froze with titanium backup, what about this one?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] wooddale:
Getting my phone tomorrow there are no updates that are gonna pop up at me when I turn on the phone right? I can't wait to get twrp installed then at least I know Im in control. I guess Samsung is not like Moto when you get a Dev edition it stays a Dev edition.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jpmcnown:
The developer edition Note 4 may be my last Samsung device. I love it, but if efforts to keep people from using devices continues to increase, I'll be left with no other option. I couldn't imagine people would be ok with buying a new computer, only to find out that you can't wipe it and install whatever you want, so why are some content when doing that with phones? God help us when we can no longer uninstall Bing from a PC.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tfly212:
I totally agree with you but unfortunately I think the number of people that have the desire and capacity to maximize their devices is really small. Look at how many millions of people used Apple's crappy keyboard where you had to switch screens to use numbers of punctuation for years? I have a feeling most either don't know, don't show, or don't care about what's going on in the hood.
