Absolutely can't wait for a new more stable build! I know this has been said a million times, but thank you slayher and fattire for all your hard work! Much appreciated

Sent from a BRICK
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
which one?

Hangouts works amazingly for me now... as I was trying stuff I saw there was a hangouts udpate, so I'm not sure if it's what I did or the update... but I have changes to push cuz I know this works :)

Update: pushed.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Technobuffalos:
Can anyone upload a newer build on mega? I wish I had the setup to build my own.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
Again, when I spoke with Slayher this afternoon he said he was planning on doing a new one soon.

In the meantime, i'm still trying to track down what's up with the play store. I wish it told us WHY "your device isn't compatible with this version". Thinking out loud-- if it's not a fingerprint issue, it's possibly a manifest/permission/uses-feature issue.

Firefox is one of the apps that won't load. Here is the AndroidManifest.xml for that app. Does anyone see a permission/uses-feature we don't have?

Is there an even simpler test case? i'm looking for an app:

1. That won't appear on the market

2. That is open source

3. That is VERY simple. Browsers unfortunately demand all kinds of privilages and features so it makes tracking the issue harder.

If anyone has an idea of where to look, I'd appreciate it.

Okay so Firefox has only two <use-features> that are required...

<uses-feature android:glEsVersion="0x00020000" android:required="true" />

<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.touchscreen"/> -- gets this through /system/etc/android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.jazzhand.xml

Hmm but also, thinking out loud here, apps can be filtered by screen density, by device type... or explicitly blacklisted or not whitelisted....
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bakachu:
Wild stab in the dark, but could it be the reported OpenGLversion property is incorrect/missing? (I don't know if it is indeed missing or incorrect, it just feels the like the kind of thing that could be causing this issue)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
Yeah I'm trying to track down where it gets that info and if we're providing it correctly...- lollipop uses opengel es 3.1- but since it's not blocking other Android 5 devices, I can't imagine that's it. It's backwards compatible...

I mean I think devices/samsung/qcom-common is where that's all taken care of for us...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PewPewK:
May not be of help, but here are the apps that I'm being blocked from installing.

reddit sync

musixmatch Music Player

HelloTalk Language Exchange

Motorola Connect

Guitar Tuner Free - GuitarTuna

2048 Number puzzle game (Estoty Entertainment Lab)

Microsoft Office Mobile

Smash Hit

Manga Rock

Todoist

PayPal

Adobe Photoshop Express

Chrome/Firefox

Cal

Deliveries Package Tracker

Among a few others. The most basic of those, I'd imagine would be Motorola Connect and GuitarTuna, but I see no connection between any of the apps...

This might be a tricky bug to solve.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
I can't imagine paypal has an opengl es requirement... any of those open source where we can build the app and try to get it to appear? (then by elimination, look at what was the requirement)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bakachu:
The OpenGls requirement is mandatory if the app uses Google Maps support from the Google Play Services library: https://developers.google.com/maps/...t#specify_requirement_for_opengl_es_version_2 So it might be more common than you think! :) Trying to extract some manifests now, but running into issues..
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PewPewK:
Unfortunately, I believe they're all closed source. :(

Hopefully someone else has an example of an open source app that isn't working.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
We got it.

I was looking at the screen density, which can sometimes affect the play store because you can filter on screen size and such... I found this page from the nexus 6. Notice anything there?

The funny thing is I was chasing it down the same exact time Slayher was doing the same thing comparing samsung devices....

Anyway, it WAS gles related. Tis was missing in /system/build.prop:

ro.opengles.version=196608

I'm not giving anyone an ETA.. but something should be coming soon.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PewPewK:
Awesome. Glad it was such a simple solution.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Oogar:
Everything still working pretty great after a couple days of use.

Just wanted to report that the camera seems to have intermittent issues. "Could not connect to camera" and "please insert SD card" have both popped up. Restart fixed it. Otherwise pictures are fine.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] abn.geek:
Fattire you mentioned a few pages back that you thought you had IR figured out but that you couldn't test - anything further on that? Anything I can do to test for you?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tiffany84:
U da man! I added it into the build.prop and can confirm it's working. Uploading the build.prop now if anyone wants to use it until it's added to the ROM.

Edit: Here's the build.prop. Just copy into system directory and replace the original with this to fix the apps being incompatible in the play store. All credit goes to fattire. Please hit his thanks buttonhttp://d-h.st/Pk6
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] slayher:
Builds updated. Should fix play store, hangouts. You might have to wipe data to get it to show.

Also IR is working now for remote apps. Enjoy.

Also again sorry about the few days with no updates from me. Trying to take care of myself as I need.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bttfpromo:
Is there anything we, as users, can do to fix that?

Or is it just a wait until Samsung releases LP?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] denson9874:
I second this method. Turning it off gave me back internal and external storage. Actually ran into the fix while toying with options[emoji12] thanks to you and [MENTION=2457777]slayher[/MENTION] I've gotten my dream for my Note
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] messiahfreedom:
How do you toggle mtp?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tiffany84:
Thanks for confirming. I can't believe the difference in speed and smoothness. This is how this phone should feel with the hardware it has
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
Settings->Storage and then the dots in the corner..
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Kidromulous:
I installed the ROM and have data (tmobile) and Wi-Fi working fine. I used the gapps package from here https://s.basketbuild.com/gapps The phone was very hot at first I rebooted and let it settle in and now it's running cool. Other than the storage issue functionality matches the op.

Edit: turned off mtp per above and got internal storage back.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] denson9874:
I know right, the speed and stability of this build, given it being release, is surprising and amazing. I was kinda rushing the operation, but now I see that it was definitely worth the wait
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] IMessedUp:
somebody please port this to sprint
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
Yeah so stock samsung kernel used some special samsungy version of mtp as a CONFIG. We got rid of that, and maybe what's left over isn't exactly fully patched or up to date yet. This is something someone could look into-- volunteers anyone?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mocsab:
I am on SM910T on ATT - when I first flashed all I could get was 4G - no lte - but after about an HOUR LTE came thru - sometimes I don't get great LTE inside my house and that is what I originally attributed that to - regardless - I have LTE now -
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
It's always a balancing act-- you don't want to hand pepole something totally unusable and terrible... but you don't want to wait for perfection either. I think we started this 2 or 3 weeks ago (I got mine mid nov) and it came along super fast with the last few major pieces coming along today... so Slayher decided now was the time.

That said-- we're really hoping to get your contributions and fixes! So send pull requests.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tiffany84:
I don't have that option. When I hit the menu in storage it just says "USB computer connection". So I still can't get internal memory
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] messiahfreedom:
Does my device need to be connected to a PC in order for the toggle to work ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
Select "Usb Computer connection" and uncheck Media Device (MTP) if it's checked.

(note-- the goal here is to make it so the sdcard and internal storage are not lost from the file manager via the /sdcard/ and that one /legacy/0 link....)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] denson9874:
Yeah when you tap it, it should give you back storage accessibility
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tiffany84:
I got it figured out. Thanks guys.

Does it have the loliipop playstation like on screen nav buttons ?

---------- Post added at 07:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:16 AM ----------

Can you guys add the on screen nav buttons in a later build ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] messiahfreedom:
What exactly did you do if you dont mind me asking.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tiffany84:
I didn't have a sim card in my phone as I had been carrying a different phone. So I powered the phone off, put my sim in, booted back up and it was working.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
Yeah ^^^ this.... this fixes a few things actually. See post #2.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] glensta:
Thank you slayher! Awesome stuff!

Is the sd card issue fixed also?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tiffany84:
Please don't come in here apologizing. That 1st build was better than anything I expected and I certainly didn't expect it so soon. I for one am so greatful for all you've done. Please worry about yourself 1st. I promise, were not going anywhere. Thanks again.

---------- Post added at 02:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 AM ----------

Look at the second post. Tells u everything. Should be fixed
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
it should be...

Fixes include:

* Capacitive screen can now be disabled/replaced by soft keys (Settings->Buttons)

* SD card/MTP issues fixed (hopefully)

* Play Store works w/apps you want.

* offmode charging

* IR mostly works apparently (I can't test this as I don't have a thing.)

* Hangouts now does video/audio chat

* NFC shut off (to preserve battery-- wont' keep trying to start)

* LOTS of goodness from upstream CM.

probably more. I just updated post #2 with a little more detail.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tiffany84:
Just got the latest build running on my device and so far its AWESOME!! Internal and external memory show on first boot, the time is correct, all apps I've looked at so far are compatible in play store including chrome and fire fox, setting to add nav bar and disable captive buttons works. Slayher and fattire, you guys did an amazing job with this. Thank you so much.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
Stlil more to do, but it's getting there :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tiffany84:
It sure is my friend. I'm so happy right now. Do both of you have a donation link?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
Slayher does. Myself, I only ask that you make any donation that would have gone my way to the EFF instead, which benefits everyone, plus is tax-deductible in the US... they do important work.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tiffany84:
Will do. Thanks again

---------- Post added at 02:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:42 AM ----------

The time still wants to change on its on. Turning off automatic timezone and setting it manually fixes it like last time. Don't really care, just reporting.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
Yeah, I think Slayher mentioned that it works when wifi is off, but there's some kind of interference when they're both on... to be investigated.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tiffany84:
My Wi-Fi is off but it still changes on its on. I'm away from Wi-Fi so I've had it off since first boot.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ShotSkydiver:
This ROM is amazing! After I flashed this ROM on my Sprint note(Dec. 7th build), everything works perfectly right off the bat! No settings changes needed, as soon as it booted up for the first time I had network connectivity, data is working, LTE working, calls (incoming and outgoing) working, texts (sending not working at the moment, but receiving works fine) all working perfectly, camera working, wifi working... and it's lightning fast, it's like a brand new phone!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tiffany84:
I noticed it went through a cellular activation on first boot, which it never did on the previous build.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ShotSkydiver:
I modified the flashable zip of the latest version of this ROM to remove the device restrictions, here is is: https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B3wI5Dyn072PVlJxRTVGRXgySHM&export=download

I still can't send texts, but I can receive them, which is weird.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PewPewK:
New build takes care of many of the bugs! Great job!

Can't report on battery life improvements yet, will check to see if Miscellaneous is still eating half the battery later.

I only have two minor complaints left:

1) The device is getting incredibly uncomfortably hot at times.

2) I cannot install the latest Play Store update, nor the latest Play Services update. Unsure of the reason why, but using the Play Store update downloaded from apkmirror gives an "App not installed." error message. Works on my CM12 Galaxy Tab S 8.4 and Nexus 6, so unsure why trying to sideload the newest update fails on the Note 4.

Other than those two things, everything seems great and blazing fast.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ShotSkydiver:
Yeah I definitely have the heat issue too. When I had my phone charging just now, it got insanely hot, not sure if that was just because it was charging but it's never gotten that hot before.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tiffany84:
The temperature seems to settle down after setting the device up. As far as play store and services, mine updated just fine. Did you do a dirty flash or full wipe?

---------- Post added at 04:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 AM ----------

Looks like the min CPU speed is still hanging at 1.8ghz but was able to use fauxclock to bump it down to 300mhz
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PewPewK:
Full wipe the first time I installed it, then dirty flash for this version. But it failed to install both on the full wipe and dirty flash, too. What Play Store are you on? I'm trying to flash 5.1.11, have 5.0.38 installed.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
The play store updates itself... why are you trying to do it manually?

As for the temperature-- I can't compare with stock per se, but when you flash and start up for the first time, there's a lot of compiling in ART that doesn't happen in Dalvik-- essentially each app is converted to more native-code (resulting in faster run times since it's been pre-done). I imagine this plus the overhead of a first-time boot can heat the thing up.

I've been using it for a while now and haven't noticed any heat in non-intense normal usage... but your mileage may vary. Let it settle down after an initial flash and restart and updating apps and all that and see if it feels more normal..
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ShotSkydiver:
Dunno if this is already known or not (it probably is), but when I check the logcat while my device is running, it's constantly being filled with two messages every second over and over:

http://i.imgur.com/l4EpKcC.png
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PewPewK:
I've noticed it heats up a lot whenever its downloading something. For instance, when I was downloading a lot of initial apps, or when I was in a game that was updating itself by downloading new content. You're right, under non-intense normal usage, it doesn't seem to be a problem.

I also like to flash things because I can't wait for shiny new things to be pushed by Google! I need my shiny new toys now! :p I'm more curious right now as to why it can't be installed when it worked on 2 other devices.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ShotSkydiver:
So far for me, the phone only gets super hot when it's charging, as long as it's not plugged in, it doesn't get too hot.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
It's my understanding with the play store that it will update itself almost immediately-- you run it, it checks and realizes there's a new version of itself, and it updates so that it's using the latest... could be wrong.

Not sure about the heat from downloading-- downloading apps usually involves a lot of emmc writing at the same time, so it's a lot of work. Hopefully downloading say a streaming video won't have the heat cuz it's not doing the saving work...

Anyway, I'm off to sleep for the night. I think a lot of progress was made today though. I just found some heartbeat app and it seems to have worked too.

The bigger things left are nfc, fixing that time service thing, and of course DRM video. Then there's just misc. housekeeping small things.. making sure bluetooth works consistently, verifying USB hosting stuff, maybe some spen enhancements.. but that can come over time.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ShotSkydiver:
Thanks for all your hard work! Amazing that this works (mostly) perfectly on my Sprint Note 4 with zero modifications needed.

I'm assuming that my SMS sending issues are probably a Sprint-specific thing? Does SMS sending work for you T-Mobile users?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] allenjthomsen:
I have provided time service fix already just need to flash

Check post 509 [MENTION=3041959]fattire[/MENTION]

I would push to git but im not currently near a computer these last 3 days been doing everything from phone
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tiffany84:
Oh, OK. I'm on 5.0.38. Didn't know there was a newer version.

Edit: Just downloaded 5.1.11 and was able to install without issue

Edit 2: Just downloaded and installed latest play services as well.

Edit 3: I've downloaded the latest Google keyboard, YouTube and Hangouts as well and had no issue installing. I would try downloading them again and see if they install. Maybe the ones you downloaded previously got corrupted some how.

---------- Post added at 06:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:49 AM ----------

Both SMS and MMS work for me on T-Mobile.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PewPewK:
No problems either with Google Keyboard, YouTube, and Hangouts. Play Services and Play Store fail and, yes, I've tried downloading them multiple times. I'll try a few things and see if anything works.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ShotSkydiver:
Ah okay, then it's a Sprint issue.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PewPewK:
Found my issue. Tried to install via adb and got an INSTALL_FAILED_DUPLICATE_PERMISSION error. Researched it and found that "The error message indicates that you already have an app on the device, signed with a different signing key, with the same custom <permission>."

Now I'm trying to flash a new gapps package to see if that fixes it. Else does anybody know how to uninstall the Google Play Store and Play Services?

---------- Post added at 04:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 AM ----------

Okay. Got Google Play to install by doing...

adb shell pm uninstall -k com.android.vending

Then installing the new apk.

Unfortunately, Play Services doesn't work with this method. When I try with Play Services, I get...

Failure [DELETE_FAILED_DEVICE_POLICY_MANAGER]

So I guess my question now is how to uninstall Play Services when I don't have permission to do so.

Edit: **** it. Wasn't working too well so I just formatted and flashed again with a different gapps package. This one worked and was able to install Play Store and Services update. Now restoring from Titanium Backup.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tiffany84:
You can either use TB or a file explorer with root permissions and navigate to system/priv-app, find the folder named GmsCore and delete it. Reboot the phone then install the new one
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] LancerV:
MMS still crashes, it gives an error saying mms_config.xml missing UaProfUrl Setting. This is only on the stock messaging app works with other apps so not that big of a deal but if somneone could point me on what to add I could recompile the APK
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] allenjthomsen:
For those people looking gor a good gapps package

Look for this in nexus 6 forum its under one of the roms

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TheCrzy1:
What ever happened to Double Tap to Wake? I really wanted that feature. Is it even included in 5.0?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chrisjm00:
So I got the "Android is upgrading..." "Optimizing app x of x" hang again, but this this time I was only installing one app at a time, then rebooting. The app that was my culprit was Rhapsody. Apparently, Lollipop handles app signature keys differently from in KitKat, and that is what causes errors (specifically Error 504 when installing for me). I have a feeling this may be the reason for a lot of installation issues and play store problems. I did find a workaround through TWRP that avoids having to wipe the phone and start over again though.

As long as you know what app is causing the issues, you can avoid having to do a full wipe. If your phone happens to hang like mine did on the optimizing apps screen, do a battery pull and boot into recovery. Inside TWRP, use the file browser and navigate to the app directory where all the installations for downloaded apps are. Delete the app that is causing issues, wipe dalvik and regular cache and reboot. You won't hang anymore on the optimizing apps screen, and you should be right back into Android.

Nice to see this available. I was testing it on my S4 that I traded to get the N4. Hope things settle in soon so I can root the N4 and install it. The bloat is terrible and I can only imagine how much better it will run with CM-12.
