I only need basic note taking which this gives me. I haven't looked at the more advanced features but post back if there is anything 'note' worthy! ha see what I did there? lols
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mmui90:
Hmm.. as usual many thanks to Preaper for his builds and slayher and fattire or their hard work.

Been getting too many random soft reboots (reboot to CM logo) while using GPS and Bluetooth simultaneously, so I've had to revert to the last build that I've found was the most stable for me (no reboots), with vibrate working, and that was gekkehenkie11's build from 12/22, but hopefully will be able to use a more up to date build when Preaper posts the next update!

[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
Hey guys ! Sorry for being 'absent' here guys but I've been working my ass off behind the scenes together with Slayher and Fattire to get NFC up. Which is now ! :) This morning I had a breakthrough lead. We saw that NFC was powering down, when stock wasn't, but until today we didnt understand why. I reversed engineered samsung stock and saw that they were using a different powersetting handler, which would basically do nothing So after changing that ... NFC now works I think this was the last thing that wasn't up on CM12. :)

Now, next thing would be ... battery life !

BTW, I'm reading that people have issue's rebooting ? I haven't had that at all, I still use my own build, not sure if that's the reason though ? It's rock steady here ...
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Planet X:
Today I could not resist any longer and give it a second shot. I'm so fascinated with your new built that just a press on the Thank you button isn't enough. CM just shows us the real power of our Note 4. Not one unexpected reboot until now and I coudn't find anything that's not working up to now. Keep up your good work. That goes to Slayher and Fattire and Gekkehenkie too. Wish you all the best for the new year.

I am using 23 December build and have had 0 reboots
[Galaxy Note 4 General] hurstov:
Which build of yours are you using? The one with blobs? That's the only one that doesn't have reboots on mine
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
Yes, you could try flashing the blobs over Preaper's build: https://mega.co.nz/#!HYQhwDxC!BKFcKucAWmg46bdD06HA7rDaeuN7xS_gAoJG1mXEcz0 and see if that changes anything. I'd say though that it's something that's changed in Preaper's build, maybe the thermal stuff ? But I guess it's worth a shot.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Batfink33:
I've dirty flashed Preapers latest build over gekkehenkies "blob" build and I've had no reboots after 2 days.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] philosophii:
button backlight

Hello, just want to thank the devs for their hard work! i flashed Preaper's latest build and only had 1 reboot over 2 days (fingers crossed)! Just wondering if anyone has found a method to disable the hardware button backlights? They seem to be extremely bright especially in the dark and I've searched and the common solution is to locate /sys/class/leds/button-backlight but this folder does not exist on the build/note 4?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Milly7:
Accidental post. Was searching to see if the OP had their repo linked in the thread somewhere. I will continue to search.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] hurstov:
Settings>buttons there is an option to disable hardware buttons. Not sure if it turns the lights off
[Galaxy Note 4 General] philosophii:
that disables the hardware buttons completely whereas I'm looking for a solution where I can use the buttons but without the backlight. Thanks anyways!

sn910g support

hi i just watched a video by max lee and he said it might work on all snapdragon devices like the note 3 did, i have tried to install it on cwm, twrp and philz what else can i do im dying to run this on my phone love cm
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mmui90:
I'm running it on N910G, but I flashed X-note for 910F before I tried CM12, so maybe that would work for you?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Planet X:
I did have two reboots. One while charging and anotherone after disconnecring the charger this moning. I don't know if flashing the blobs will do any good to the latest build? Also the keyboard does not like swiping I had to learn.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mmui90:
Hmm, I actually did this... and haven't had a reboot all day, maybe it did the trick!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dominicstg2:
Did you flash the ale kernel as well can you tell me the steps you took please I'm running xnote v3 and kernel number is v5
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Preaper:
The last couple of days have been very busy for me, so it has been hard to keep up with this thread.

I see some people have issues with reboots - I don't experience those. Are your sure that you are using the build from the 25th and you have a N910F and not another phone?

Right now I'm merging in the great work done by the various devs. Props to Gekkehenkie and Slayher for fixing NFC - that was a tough nut to crack.

Next build should include

- Working NFC

- Working smart cover

- Sane volume buttons

- Even better thermal conditions

- Better video blobs

Maybe more?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mmui90:
Well, admittedly using it on a 910G, but all previous custom ROMs have been cross-compatible between G and F variants, so the assumption was that the same would be applicable for CM12, which has been the case for gekkehenkie11's builds.

Looking forward to your next update!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dominicstg2:
Can you list the steps please
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Er. Aditya:
steps for flashing F roms on G ?

get any custom rom based on 910F and get any kernel ael or 6th gear

place into sd card

normal wipe in your recovery

flash the rom

dont reboot

flash the kernel

and then reboot

you should be good to go
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dominicstg2:
OK I am on cote v3 rom I have installed the ale kernel from echoe I get this now I downloaded the mega file
[Galaxy Note 4 General] hurstov:
I can confirm I am having reboots on 910f and the build from the 25th. I've tried dirty flashing, full wipe, flashing from different builds.

The only build not causing me reboots is the build from the 17th.

Battery life is pretty poor too, but I guess that's to be expected on an alpha.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] :
Ael and 6th gear are both tw kernels not sure how well they will work with cm.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Er. Aditya:
i guess he was talking about when the other guy said "other roms" in his comment as cm12 dsnt needs any kernel on 910G it flashes on its own
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Preaper:
the build form the 17th? That's gekkehenkies build correct?

He was using the N910T kernel. My build is based on the N910F kernel. Nope not true.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] hurstov:
How could that be the issue? My phone is definitely a 910f. I even took the back off to double check!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Preaper:
Pretty weird. The only issue I have is the camera becoming unavailable and reduced battery life.

Are these reboots reproducible? Or are they completely random? How often do you have them? Is it during screen on?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] hurstov:
Totally random. I can't reproduce but they are always screen on. I just had one typing this.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] allenjthomsen:
Pm me
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Preaper:
Do these blobs fix the issue?

https://mega.co.nz/#!HYQhwDxC!BKFcKucAWmg46bdD06HA7rDaeuN7xS_gAoJG1mXEcz0

Just flash it after you flash my build.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
Yes I think this is a good idea to try, first guy who tried it hasn't experienced any issue's since: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57793606&postcount=1281

It might be the blobs indeed. Thing is that Slayher split out the blobs in a 'trlte common' part and a 'trltexx' part. It might very well be that a blob that's specific to their 910T ROM ended up in the 'common' directory and thus causes problems. The blobs in the zip all come from our device. So, try flashing that AFTER you've flashed Preaper's build (that's important !). It will at least aid in pinpointing the source of the problem.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] hurstov:
Cheers guys. I'll flash it right away and report back in an hour or so.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] pbedard:
I don't wanna de rail your thread how I increase the volume ?? In the speaker n headphones
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Preaper:
Only thing is that I'd expect to have the same trouble on my device as well.. since I now use Slayher his common proprietary blobs exclusively
[Galaxy Note 4 General] hurstov:
I've just had a reboot so its not the blobs causing it.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
And just to be sure: you have the 910F ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Planet X:
I have flashed the blobs too this noon. Then I also have installed Antutu CPU Master to bring the CPU down to 300MHz. The device still gets warmer in my hands compared to stock rom. Until now I didn't have a unexpected reboot anymore. Which gapps you guys using b.t.w.? I use Banks minimal L gapps. For camera I use Google Camera as it has more options and is stable for me too.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] hurstov:
Yes mate. Definitely the 910F
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
And you installed Preaper's latest build after a full factory reset ? If not, try that and see if that helps.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] allenjthomsen:
[MENTION=3296134]gekkehenkie11[/MENTION]

Hey its the thermald not kicking in properly for some reason i tried having preaper adjust msm-thermal to make up for it but i think we need to look into it
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
I didnt really follow all that, was busy with getting NFC up, but as I understand Reaper's ROM would turn the phone extremely hot when charging battery ? Why would that happen in the first place ? It never happens to me ? And then you guys installed some kind of way to tweak temperature ? Wouldn't it make more sense to really solve the problem and find out why it was overheating in the first place ? That never happened on earlier ROM's and doesnt happen on 910T ROM ? Or am I missing something ?

Anyway next project first is to get 4k video up, Slayher and Fattire have already started working on that.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] allenjthomsen:
I am currently working on a fix msmthernal is a temp fix until i can hunt down why thermald isnt kicking in
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
But that's just a symptom fix. I mean, why is it overheating in the first place ? That shouldnt even happen.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] hurstov:
I've tried a full wipe, a dirty flash, flashing from stock, flashing from xnote. Always get reboots. I even got my first reboot on your 17th build and blobs! Nightmare
[Galaxy Note 4 General] lycan_codex:
Hi,

I have the 25th december build and i haven't had a single random reboot. Are you guys sure you are not changing any governers for CPU? I have random reboots the moment i change the governer, otherwise, i have none. Also, i have installed absolute minimum gapps (pico package i think)

I have N910G by the way.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Ogy77:
What to flash 24.12 build or 25.12,I am confused?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Preaper:
Samsung kernel source seems to be missing some thermal limit values, that the Shamu source (also Snapdragon 805) does have. So we put those values in place for our device as well (example; https://github.com/jaapp/android_ke...mmit/314dcbb69e2c522be6ca6ec7846f5c8b56742281). but these are temperature values for the CPU and GPU only.

This has nothing to do with the phone getting hot while fast charging. I never had that happen to mine, at least not more than stock would also do during fast charging. I think this talk of 'charging heat' is just noise.

As to why the device got hot in the first place - either we have some background process going nuts/not entering a sleep state, we're using a different CPU governor than Samsung and/or we're missing these thermal limits. I'd bet it's a combination of these three. So yes - this is just a part of the solution and we need to figure out what else is draining the device = heating it.

---------- Post added at 09:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:24 PM ----------

Hmm, last build broke some stuff. Got to figure that out before I can release it.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dominicstg2:
So how do I make the kernel 910g?

And I get a message saying error updating binary in zip and this is for trtexx and mine is trelted
[Galaxy Note 4 General] vogli:
It used to be possible to get the kernel messaged after a reboot by reading /proc/last_kmsg. This does not seem to work anymore. It was created by drivers/staging/android/ram_console.c This file is not part of the kernel anymore. There is only a ram_console.h. Having that last_kmsg would help a lot to get the cause of these reboots.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dominicstg2:
I got cm12 working all I had to do is flash 910f two and bang so happy cant wait for future updates
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dominicstg2:
can I use the cm updater or do I update manually

Hi all I noticed that people are saying they are using bulid 25 ect I'm running build 23 got from mega on first page and was wondering if I can update with cyan updater

---------- Post added at 02:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 PM ----------

Also would I still get the fast charging ability
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
Then I'd almost say your case is an isolated case and you're experience a difference issue. I mean I haven't had a single reboot ever since I bought the note 4, so if it even happens on my build, I'd say you have maybe a faulty SD card playing up, could be due to a earlier spontatenous reboot that indexing is faulty for example. I'd say, flash stock and run that for a day and see if you still have those reboots.

Anyway I think you were the only one who so far reported reboots after flashing the blobs ? So I think this still might be the solution to everybody else and I suggest everyone on 910F who has reboots with Preaper's build to flash the blobs.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] cedricf25:
In my logcat, when the screen is off (and on too), this event appears almost every 1 to 10 seconds.

Is due to an app ?

I/Ads ( 9265): Ad is not visible. Not refreshing ad.

I/Ads ( 9265): Scheduling ad refresh 60000 milliseconds from now.

this causes a lot of wakelocks
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
You're still good, right ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] chalie78910:
Battery fix ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mmui90:
Had a couple soft reboots to boot animation. First time was plugged into wall socket, screen on, WhatsApp running only.

Second time was plugged into USB socket on computer, screen on, trying to transfer files to the external SD.

Might be something to do with temperature throttling? Because other than that I've been rock solid since flashing blobs.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] emann56:
The reboots are really random. In the T-mobile ROM section, a few people would get random reboots and don't know why. I get it all the time when I am on calls longer than 30 mins.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Preaper:
Last night I had a reboot during a titanium backup batch. That was caused by overheating. Should be fixed in the next build due to lower thermal limit values.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] markklok:
Today is a good day to flash this CM on my Note4... Just hope that my Gear VR keeps working :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Preaper:

Me too. No reboot since flashing your blobs on top of 25th build. More than 24 hours ago.

Toppie :good:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Preaper:
Hey Gekkehenkie,

That latest blob file that has been more compatible for some of the devices - where do the blobs originate from?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
Actually I'm not sure if I just pulled them from a downloaded samsung FW or that I just pulled them from my own stock phone. Been doing both, not sure what ended up in the last blobs ;) But they're definitely NOT the blobs from 'ano dev'.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
So, some progress on 4k video. There's this app, camera FV-5 that supports UHD however that didnt work on CM12 neither. I just found out why. The camerasource.cpp file does a check on the API result to see if UHD is supported. The API will NEVER report UHD as supported mode, not on stock, not on CM12, cause it's officially not supported (Samsung 'hacked' it in). So after removing that check, I can now shoot UHD video's using that app in CM12. The stock app/google app still doesnt work though, but it's progress :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dan-e-jay:
where can i download the builds guys, itching for cm on my note 4.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] dan-e-jay:
Thanks,

Hanging on the Cyanogen spinning logo, after wipe of Dalvik, System and Cache.... Have a backup so should be all good to restore... Still fairly new to all this.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mattycee:
Sorry for the noob question but how did you remove the check? I have FV-5 as I use it as my UHD video camera on the Nexus 6, yesterday I noticed I could choose 4K but it wouldn't let me record.

If you could advise how you removed that check and if I can do the same, i'd be really appreciative. (Is there an amended version I can download even? I bought the software a few weeks ago so I am not trying to pirate the file!)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
You'd need to rebuild the nexus 6 FW and change the camerasource.cpp file to remove the check for supported resolutions.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mattycee:
Im wanting to use the FV-5 camera app with the Note 4 on the CM12. I've just used the FV-5 on my Nexus 6 (4K works without hacking on the Nexus 6)

I've got a Note 4 running the 29/12 build of CM12 and was hoping to be able to get a copy of the build you made that allows the 4K recording on the CM12 with the FV-5 app. Any chance at all of a copy of that build?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
Ah, on the Note 4, dont worry, you will get it soon, everything is getting integrated into new builds.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mattycee:
Thanks heaps, im looking forward to the new builds coming with the 4K goodness!

Happy New Year!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Preaper:
Just wanted to let everybody know that I'm still alive. It's just that I can't spend too much time on the port right now, because I've been neglecting my gf enough lately and she deserves some more attention :P
[Galaxy Note 4 General] LagunaTechie:
Would this ROM work on the Verizon SM-910V developer edition? I would think so as they are both snapdragon based... Any thoughts?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
Made good progress today, i can now record 4k with the free 'opencamera' app too !
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mattycee:
You're such a tease! Ha

Any guestimate on when we will be able to get our hands on a build that does 4K? (Even on the FV-5 camera, im not picky!)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
The fv5 fix has been merged already i think. Not sure when preaper will upload a new build but i think soon. And since we can now record 4k open cam too, it seems we are now very close to get it going in all cams, also the google one.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] knuckles1978:
Does your gear vr still work?

My mate has already flashed the ROM, and it's awesome. He's looking to buy a gear vr so was wondering if it works.

By the way, with Google cardboard, the VR demos on this ROM run at about 1.5 to 2x the framerate that they did on KitKat touchwiz. Unbelievable.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mattycee:
Excellent work. Preaper will hopefully get to it soon.

How long do you think it'll be before you crack the Google cam?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gekkehenkie11:
Done ;) But at this point it's a proof of concept, it works, but we need to incorporate it into the wrapper. Shouldnt be too hard but I'm really short on time. I'll see what I can do.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mattycee:
You're the man! Is the video quality the same as when on Touchwiz?

Also just out of interest, does this mean that the Google Camera will work on other phone models such as the the LG G3 on its CM12 AOSP Roms?

If getting this to work on an AOSP rom I am hoping that can go across to others, do you think that is able to happen?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] indisingh:
are you talking about the most recent build (29th dec) or a newer one that's still in the works?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Planet X:
I couldn't resist and I couldn't wait any longer. So I made a build myself from latest shared roomservice from [MENTION=346046]Preaper[/MENTION]. I'm not a developer but I like to build from time to time.

So may be I even help you a bit with waisting time on building instead of developing? But you have made big progress since the latest build. It feels so much better now and even a few more features are already in. I cannot say much about battery at this time. But it cannot be worse isn't it?

Here is the link:

Edit:

I had to pull it. I have no sound in calls if I call someone. When I receive a call everything is fine.

Sorry. It seemed fine yesterday evening...
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mattycee:
Thanks for that, can I ask what the extra features are? Does this have the 4K recording that the new unreleased builds have?

if you are a possibility to add video 4k and sound. that's it beautiful
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Planet X:
That would be great. My build host is ready to rock :D.

I have found the solution. The problem is the mixer_paths. xml in the /etc directory. If I replace that file with the one from [MENTION=346046]Preaper[/MENTION]s build sound in call is working. Even the volume rockers are working the right way now. So make a backup from that file and replace it and set permissions. Reboot. I will check later how to have the right values in the zip from building.
