[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PewPewK:
Hot damn. Literally. Anyone else have an issue where their Note 4 feels like it's catching on fire? Not just uncomfortable to hold, but seriously like I-think-I-could-use-this-to-toast-bread level hot? I saw some discussion a few pages ago with regards to the governor defaulting to min and max CPU speed as 1.2 GHz. Possibly the problem? It generally only happens when I'm downloading things, but curious if others have the issue.

Yes. Lollipop only supports ART.

To anyone building themselves, beware the ides of http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/78591/6 -- it screws us up. Revert it if building. You'll know it sucks cuz there will be a black screen and all kinds of problems. I let ciwrl know in irc, but until someone can verify it's the problem and then fix it, I'd stay away from it.

Update: rebuilding surfaceflinger might fix the build without a make clobber being necessary... trying that now.

mmmp -B frameworks/native/services/surfaceflinger

edit: that fixed it.

New Project for any volunteer!!!

Add https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/8cfd7eec7ea6c0dbbf6e49fd80aaa80f80d0b1e4

plus kernel support to our kernel! The goal is to add a light when charging. Any takers?

Total projects accepted in this thread: 0 of 3 so far...

ALSO!

Project #4-- anyone can do this.

I noticed that on hammerhead (Nexus 5) there is a patch that claims to boost volume and improve dynamic range and such. It involves only editing /system/etc/mixer_paths.xml and restarting. No programming required.

you can start editing in /system by doing this command from a shell:

$ su

# mount -o rw,remount /system

Now you've got read and WRITE access to /system. So...

# nano /system/etc/mixer_paths.xml

and you're editing... ctrl-X and then Y should save. Then reboot...

The goal is to see if adding those <ctl name="COMP0 Switch" value="1" /> lines does anything to fix stuff.

Good luck and report back here.

I actually did it before you suggested it, Slayher, but I changed my build.prop to 4.4.4 at the same time I was changing my screen DPI and it worked flawlessly. All my apps are available (and purchased =) in the play store. OH GOD IT LOOKS TITTIES @ 480 DPI XDXDXD

EDIT: any idea how to get apps to sync now? Last time I messed with that was like cm5 i think. There's a command you could issue via adb that would make the market reinstall your latest backed-up list of apps.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
Like, that's deep, man.

Can you take a look 2 posts up? I added some projects...

So the question is-- should we make the fingerprint say 4.4.4 for the market? or wait for the store to get its act together?

Next-- if you're building... here's some stuff I'm trying:

If you mean the more recent one from the other thread, it has the fix in slayher's repo. The next post Slayher builds will also have that fix. I have to say the patches upstream from the last few days are also pretty sweet and looking more CM-like.

THanks for taking them all on. Please submit any patches back to Slayher by a pull request...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
THanks.. I think project 1 and maybe 2 are done by myself and slayher... 4 would be great... thanks! 3 has a 'very high' degree of difficulty as it involves changes to the kernel and the liblight file...

Glad to have you aboard! Post any questions and we'll try to help get you through. Take a look at post #2 for the repos/roomservice.xml

allenjthomsen, it seems like you know what you're doing too so feel free to make code pull requests to slayher... so far it's been a 2-person effort but the point to releasing now is to have more contributors. The basics are here but there is plenty of fine-tuning to do.. so let's get this polished up!

Night!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
Almost forgot-- and I promsie this is my last post tonight--

If you're doing a build tongiht after a repo sync,, slayher pushed some stuff that breaks com.qualcomm.location so you should do the following to let the build get out of the bootloop:

1. rm -rf /system/app/com.qualcomm.location

2. rm /system/lib/libloc...oh crap I forget the name, but the one with api_2 or something in it.

It'll be noisy in logcat, but it should finish starting. Slayher wasn't around today, but those are the two things you need to do before it'll fully boot. I'm sure he'll have that fixed soon.

Chrome will not distribute a copy of itself to you overplay store while using the note fourhowever this does not mean that the note has any trouble running the chrome apk so if you can get ahold of the actual file and uncheck allow unknown sources you'll be able to install and run the application as though you were a normal play store user

How smooth is CM12 compared to touchwiz? is it buttery smooth like other people are claiming?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] HtcOnekid:
Is about the the same but you will notice with cm12 you will not have choppy scrolling in some apps like on touchwiz
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] nocoast:
with the exception of a few glitches it is considerably smoother butterier and faster than TouchWiz in every single way

honestly the scrolling is the one thing that I have found to be a little bit more smooth on the render front then aosp on TouchWiz

Jesus, Lollipop is beautiful. This rom is damn awesome too, I can't believe how well it runs for an alpha. I'm a Touchwiz gal myself but once more of the kinks are ironed out and the fingerprint scanner works, I may just use this as my daily driver.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] big gulps huh?:
I am not sure if this is a common issue with others but after connecting to wifi and then downloading all of my apps from the playstore I realized that it had used my cellular connection instead of the wifi connection to download all of the apps.

YES I was absolutely connected to wifi (I turned off the cellular radio to test). Has anyone else experienced this (or maybe you just havent noticed). I checked my usage on tmobile.come and noticed that it was in fact all downloaded over lte...

What I did to setup this rom:

Have LTE, GPS lock, SD card is seen and can be used on the phone, high volume, no app issues

-Wipe system, data, cache

-Factory reset

-Flash rom from OP

-Flash gapps from https://s.basketbuild.com/gapps

-Flash chainfire from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053

-Fixed permissions

-Reboot system

-Setup phone as new device

-Sign into google account

-Download titanium backup from Play store

-Setup SuperSU to grant permissions

-Ran titanium backup and restored all my apps ranging from games, music players, etc

-Used root explorer to fix sound with new mixer_paths.xml with volume bumped up to 95

-Do not use wifi, nfc, so that does not bother me

Rom is real fast, been running for 2 days and I'm getting almost 11hrs with 4.5hrs use throughout the day.

Can be used a daily driver. Have not experienced any reboots or freezes.

Very impressed.

Thanks so much to the Devs on this rom. everything is working great but the Internal Storage not showing up. i have read all the threads and see some different fixes and tried them. but i still cant get the internal Card to show up.

** does anyone have a Real fix for this that i might have missed in the thread? **
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] HtcOnekid:
The only one that worked for me is make sure you set up your phone to the point you don't have to restart it again and than do a battery pull and the sd card should be go to go, if you restart your phone you will face the same issue again.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jamushaggard:
Thanks i will try the battery pull.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chrisjm00:
So I asked earlier and I think it just got buried in the thread. Has anyone found out why on a reboot, to get the SD card working for instance, the phone will bring up the Upgrading Android box, try to optimize the apps, but never be able to finish? It has happened on a couple occasions. Clearing the cache doesn't resolve it, the only thing that does is completely wiping and starting over.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] st3wart:
I've personally never had that happen. I have had the SD problem but fix it with jrummy SD fix. Sometimes the fix doesn't work right away so I just do it multiple times and haven't had the problem since. Rebooted my phone plenty of times to try and reproduce SD card lost but haven't had the problem since I used that fix.

Sent from my SM-N910T
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chrisjm00:
I always do a clean wipe so it confuses me why it happens. I noticed that I have trouble downloading apps from the play store. Maybe an app or two aren't fully installed and it is trying to optimize a broken app? Has anyone had issues with the play store not installing apps correctly?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bobbarker2:
I don't think fingerprint scanner will ever work on anything but TouchWiz.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kabuk1:
It's actually in the "might get to someday" section in post #2, fattire says there's just no UI for it yet & invites people to write one.

I really wish I could code, I'd totally be on it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fattire:
This is because there is undocumented support for it in Android 5.0 but no UI in the Settings app to enter your fingerprints. So I think someone would need to write one, if someone hasn't already. Here is the HAL component)

If anyone knows of a UI that works with the new FingerprintManager or wants to extend the Settings lockscreen UI to accomodate it, we could have the scanner I think... I have done zero looking at this, but it might be a manner of extending the "swipe your pattern" portion of the UI to be more like "swipe your finger over the button a few times".

Looks like there were edits to the Fingerprint system as recently as Nov 11.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mocsab:

And some apps that say they are not compatible are not because the developers who made them have not updated there apps for 5.0 yet
