Just wanted to voice my happiness with this build.

Have been running this ROM pretty hard over the last few hours. Have experienced ZERO reboots, a feat in its self. As well my signal is STABLE, no hiccuping or dropping randomly on the Canadian build. Again AWESOME!!! On top of those two AMAZING improvements, the heat issue while using the device while it is charging seems to have been reduced GREATLY (not quite gone, but defiantly runs drastically cooler). These issues in my humble opinion were the major issues regarding this ROM, seeing such drastic improvement on the first update is quite exciting. Also the over all responsiveness (which was excellent to begin with) seems improved. The build is perky and quick.

Really nice to see the "OK Google" option is working now as well. I was missing that. As well the standby time seems improved as well, am looking forward to seeing what the battery actually does while I sleep later on this evening.

Thank you so much for all the hard work, this update is really quite amazing. :D

Right on thanks Nick, your contributions are appreciated very much by us all.

Thank you for bringing SLIM to our device! YOU DA MAN:highfive::good:

Couple things hopefully can help. I'm on TW now, if I back up to SD card will flashing an aosp rom wipe the SD card? Will i be able to just flash backup if rom doesn't work out? Does tethering work?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] shaggyskunk:
No flashing an AOSP Rom will not wipe the SD card - Yes you can flash back to TW - the same as you would flash to any other Rom
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] rambo8987:
How do I get rom to read my external SD card? And how do I get root permission?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] wase4711:
there are a couple of mods you can try in the thread to get your ext sd to show up; if they dont work, format it to FAT32, and then it will work with every rom, every time

get root access in Developer Options
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
The battery life is AMAZING on this build. I knew it was better than the Dec release. But WOW. 7 hours of sleep last night, my phone dropped 7-8%. That's almost stock touchwiz level battery drain.

And still, after 24 hours, have yet to experience a single unexpected reboot.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] ipippy:
This build looks awesome so far, only two small issues:

1. Heat when I flashed, got pretty hot during the initial setup, havn't really been using my device since, I'll update this later.

2. 4k Recording doesn't really work with the stock camera, records a garbled green mess. Have not tried 3rd party apks yet.

With that being said, im super happy to have Lollipop and you guys that make these roms possible are the real MVPs. Thanks so much for your hard work and dedication!

Edit: Flashed on a Telus N910W8!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] rambo8987:
Cane we restore backups with titanium? And to format to fat....can I do that on the phone or do I have to do it on a comp? (No comp currently )
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] wase4711:
no, youi cant format to fat 32 on the phone

yes, you can restore APPS ONLY with titanium, but, you might as well just download them fresh from the play store, since restoring their data can and will cause problems, and you should NOT restore system apps with TB
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
Google "format sd card to fat32" you should find a exe capable of formating your sd to fat32. Windows probably wont allow a 64 gb to go fat.

At least it wouldn't for me.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] force70:
Windows wont ...he will need software to do it but theres tons of stuff online to do that.

I use EaseUs partition master and it works great

sent from Canada via my Note 4, 3 or 2
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
Yeah, i actually remember you mentioning that program a while back, gave it a try. Seems to work well.

Honestly, i thought it was hardware related, that my SD Card was limited to exfat and ntfs. But apparently its Windows. Although i was positive that i have formated thumb drives fat32 in Windows 7.

I cant remember the name of the program i used, but i was definitely getting tired of dealing with exfat. But i HATE the 4gb file size restriction on fat32... But it is nice to just automatically have a working SD no mater what ROM you flash.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] shaggyskunk:
Yeah - I wouldn't be too concerned about a 4 GB file size restriction - I'm thinking that it's not likely that I want to move roughly 4 TW Roms anywhere - lol
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
99% of my usage, 4 gb is not an issue. Every once and a while however, i load movies onto my sd, only 720p copies, but generally those files are 4.7 gb. I know, i know, everyone says "download smaller files... But im a quality neurotic, and anything less looks like poop lol
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] rambo8987:
Thanks I was hoping to be able to format it in the phone since my laptop is currently down
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] wase4711:
use Handbrake to make those 4.7 gig files around 900 megs, without losing ANY of the Quality!

OK google functionality stops working after a while, requires reboot to work.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] Shadow of Chaos:
Hey folks, I'm thinking of getting a Note 4 at some point, and of course I'd put Slim on it as I always do for every device, but I have one question about the current state of this alpha (Since I couldn't find a post with current known bugs): Is there anything MAJOR that doesn't work at the moment? Like 4G or sound or something serious along those lines? I'm relatively fine if it doesn't have all of Slim's features yet, but I'd hold off for a while longer if it's not that far yet.

Thanks to anyone that answers- And sorry! I know this is one of those annoying questions, but I couldn't see any easily readable list.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] shaggyskunk:
There is full functionality - Some people may have isolated issues - I've been happily running it as my daily driver - And as always with Slim - They take a measured approach to Development
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] Shadow of Chaos:
Perfect, thanks!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] mbonus:
I agree, I also have been using as my dd. I've been able to get full day on medium usage with everything on; location high accuracy, BT streaming google play music 2 hrs, phone calls 2 hrs, sot 3 hrs.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] blacklabel2020:
Is there NFC on this rom?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] mbonus:
Not yet
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
Does anyone else have a working Video Camera? Mine has a very "glitchy" record, then completely broken, noisy playback.

Not an issue, was more just curious as to if it was just me.

---------- Post added at 11:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:43 AM ----------

And no, i haven't tried handbrake. The converters that I have tried take longer than it takes to watch the movie lol. Will give it a shot tho. :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] mbonus:
Just tested, I have the same results as you at uhd res.

Edit; switch to 1080p res and it works okay.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
Thanks. Didn't think that was just me, but wanted to make sure.

I never use video, so i don't really care. As long as battery lasts the day and reboots (zero in 3 days now) are minimized I'm a happy man.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] mbonus:
Edited my post above as it works in regular HD. Just 4k video is broken.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
Nice! You are right. Didn't realize it was 4k by default
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] rambo8987:
So I was able to flash the Exfat fix and now my 60gig and 1250gig micro SD card can be read and accessed with no issue. I always downloaded. Tb fixer in market place and was able to restore all user apps from my tw ROM. Now just need xposed and the cam and video recorder working and all will be well

I'm using stock and I've never had an issue with limits... Which is why I was confused when he was asking about limits in the first place...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] seriousneo:
I encounter a limit whenever I send a lot of text messages.

On Textra btw.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] zain0300:
a lot of roms have this option but I think slim never implemented it. I took this screenshot on AICP i think its a CM feature. Or maybe its just for receiving not sending i don't know never send text messages
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] seriousneo:
I'm looking for exactly this!

My carrier plan is all unlimited... T-Mobile...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] zain0300:
CM, Beanstalk, CMRemix and Liquidsmooth all have this option you can try those if you haven't yet
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] slayher:
YAY! I didnt see I was in the contributor status for this rom also!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
Ecevitably if the functionality is in other 5.0.2 roms it will be here soon. Slim (in previous experience tends to be a bit... They seem to take baby steps) and on a build like 5 with a crapton of issues is definitely a good thing. Ive used all of the builds out there at the moment, this is leaps n bounds beyond the rest stability wise. I would advise patients. Unless you like reboots and 2 hour battery lol. But what do i know lol ;)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] Tiffany84:
Just in case you were not aware, the person you quoted is the reason why we have cm/aosp based roms for the Note 4.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
I quoted the wrong comment. My bad. Doing 6 things at once. No intent to offend :-/

Intended to quote zaine (previous post) my bad
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] zain0300:
If you tried SlimKat it did not have SMS Message Limit option either, Slim just does not include this option
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
Is the "delete old messages" option in SMS settings not functional? Or is this not what they were talking about?

I been running slim for days btw. Whatever.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] zain0300:
we were talking about the option in Settings/Security/SMS Message Limit

Love this rom

I am sooooo upset that I have to have WiFi calling for my house. :(
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] shaggyskunk:
Why do you have to use WiFi calling at your house?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] ShrekOpher:
You can use hangouts + hangouts dialer to do your WiFi calling with a Google voice number any time, on any device, with any carrier.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] glensta:
Still looking for a fix on this? Low sound when recording video. When live streaming skype or battlecam, no mic sound at all. Touchwiz sound is great. Sound mods like viper4android do not fix this.

Anyone?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] xda23:
The tmobile download link doesn't work does anybody have a good download link. Thanks In advance!!! :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] nicklovell23:
Working fine for me.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] jayperez92:
na

is SlimLP better than liquid smooth? does it have more features or anything that I should consider to use this ROM?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] shaggyskunk:
Flash them both and you decide which one is for you - It's not really appropriate to ask this type of question ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] jayperez92:
~~~ From the Moderator .......... the simple answer is every one has a different experience with different roms, flash both and find which one you like the best for you
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] shaggyskunk:
It's called Etiquette - Try them both - Opinions are subjective - Nandroids are straight forward enough

I will say this - I'm running SlimLP
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] xda23:
Everytime I try to download the rom it downloads in like 2-3 seconds but I get bad zip file everytime.why won't it download correctly? Thanks In advance!!! :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] zain0300:
which browser are you using? Try a differrent browser I am sure it will download just fine.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] ShrekOpher:
Try downloading it with the stock browser. Also select the browser as the download app. Don't download it with es file manager, sometimes that messes it up.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
Yeah i was having that issue as well downloading with Opera, downloading the ROM on my pc seems to fix the bad DL situation. Chrome seems to DL on the phone perfect, but this situation seems random.

It also helps (or seems to) to set your screen timeout to 10 min, and not let the screen turn off.

ROM is running like a CHAMP tho. Getting on average about 5 hours of screen on time, haven't had a single reboot. This ROM is SUPER DOPE AWESOME SAUCE! Definitely a solid daily contender.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] shaggyskunk:
New Build from Nick! SO - Thanks go to Nick and NOT me - Okay :)

NOTE - THIS BUILD IS FOR trltecan ONLY!

Don't forget to flash the updated Slim Gapps - Updated 01/17
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] blacklabel2020:
Will tmo get update soon?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] ipippy:
Oooo ty, trying this now!!

Update: its absolutely stunning, 4k still doesnt work (who cares!) but everything looks amazing (that dark theme! \o/). Seems less hot than the last Slim build I flashed too!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
Nice! Thanks Nick! Seriously, just made my night. :D

Has anyone lost s-pen functionality with the most recent update?

On occasion with this build as well as liquid, the s-pen would stop working randomly, a reboot would resolve. I have rebooted 3 times now and unfortunately... No s-pen. :(
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] seriousneo:
Can I dirty flash the 1/20 build?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] shaggyskunk:
Depends - Are you already running SlimLP? If so you can - BUT - It's recommended that you Factory Reset - Wipe System and Caches - Flash Rom and Gapps.

At the very least - Manually wipe system and caches through Advanced in Wipe - You won't lose your settings this way - Then Flash the Rom & Gapps
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] pwrmedia:
Latest build running as smoothly as ever, but seems as if the reboot frequency has increased a bit. Will let the ROM settle a while longer before confirming, but I've had about 5-6 in the hour after install.

No issues of note otherwise. Solid work!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
Zero reboots since flashing last night. Everything seems stable, except battery. Went from overnight dropping 7-8% to last night dropping 40%.

Im going to do a full wipe and reflash, its the system sucking the juice. So hopefully that will resolve on its own.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] aaldiar:
I know it's called SlimLP because it's Lollipop Build, what if we call it SlimPop instead? It sorta rolls off the tongue a little easier huh? Random thought for the day. I'm enjoying the ROM very much. I've always been a big fan of SlimROM's. Thank you for your time and efforts.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] shaggyskunk:
Nah - Sounds too much like - SlimPop goes the weasel - lol ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] aaldiar:
HA! Made me think of, PoP! Goes my heart. From Music and Lyrics. SlimPop, goes my heart.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
Does anyone who flashed the last update have a working s-pen? I've tried everything to get it working. Flashed dirty, clean, redownloaded and reflashed file. Only thing i have not done, now that I think of it is switching gapps (but i don't think that would affect anything.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] aaldiar:
I've been running the latest build for 24 hours now and actually have zero issues so far. No reboots, S-Pen works fine (I didn't install any extra S-Pen apps from the play store). I used the Slim Full Beta gapps if that helps any.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
Weird, thanks for the heads up. I really thought that this was not just me.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] aaldiar:
Maybe try changing the tip on your S-Pen? On my Wacom Tablet the tips make a big difference in how the pen reacts with different programs. I know they aren't Identical, but could be linked in some way being that the S-Pen only works with the Note phones much like the Wacom Pens only work with the Wacom? Not sure if all this makes sense, I'm just trying to think outside the box here a little.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
Will give it a shot next time i flash, atm I'm back on the 18th release... I think the last was the 18th...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] aaldiar:
Slim has a release updated the 20th. I'm on that one.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] celkin:
No, i know. Im on the previous, as the spen is a necessity for me. Use it constantly.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] Rekzer:
I noticed on most AOSP roms a few weeks ago that randomly my phone would just get visually laggy. Is that issue corrected now? Just want to know before I try again.

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] seriousneo:
Believe I still get some visual lag when charging.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] shaggyskunk:
I haven't noticed any lag whatsoever - Check to see if you have some apps (ie: fb Flipboard etc) running amok in the background constantly refreshing - That would cause lag - But it's not the Rom itself - it's apps
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] jae2014:
how do we make the font larger. Idk if it is just me but it looks like the roms and everything else is kind of small or is that just the way it is.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] devynbf:
Because the DPI is changed from 640 to 580 (I believe).

Change the DPI in Root Explorer or different application.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] Rekzer:
Are gapps multiple flashes now. Was looking at the file sizes and the minimal were bigger than normal, so i assume you'd need normal + minimal together?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] shaggyskunk:
No - it's just a decimal point in the mini Gapps size - Just flash Gapps as you would normally.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] Rekzer:
Been running the rom for a couple hours and got 4 reboots already. Is it a heat related issue?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] shaggyskunk:
Are you running the built in kernel?

If so - It's not likely a heat related issue.

I've had the occasional rr - but it's not booting back to the Samsung boot screen - Only to the SlimLP bootanimation.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] Rekzer:
Do you know of a kernel for this that also supports Canadian devices?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Developmen] shaggyskunk:
