[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] jajoj:
I have spent some more time testing this ROM.

The latest build (2015/01/09) is a huge improvement. Battery lasts longer (with NFC disabled), less heat (although the phone gets hotter than TW while charging and using it at the same time).

However, I am still having problems with reboots, and I think I have found a pattern. My phone reboots frequently while using the GPS. I play a location based game called Ingress which not only use the gps but also have advanced graphics. Playing this game with the charger connected makes the phone run very hot, and eventually it reboots. I also notice that the phone drops satellite connections frequently when the charger is connected.

Maybe something worth investigating.

Good work guys!!

Disable nfcservices app with MyBackup or Titanium Backup. I use Google Camera from App store. It does work well too.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] mrgibson2:
Me too!! I am very very happy with the 9-1-15 Build.

But today I used GPS the first time and tried Google Maps as well as Nokia Here which both used to work in the past (w/o CM12)

Not only did I experience some reboots and significant heating of the device but as well my position on the map was constantly 300m (approximately) behind were I was actually positioned.

Makes it hard to get the right turns ;)

What still occurs concerning BT is the volume settings. I press louder once but the volume continues to rise and vice versa for volume down.

Concerning NFC I found that although deactivating it in the device's settings it still appears in the battery drain overview. So maybe something goes wrong here to.

Hope I can help to improve the coming builds.

A HUGE thank you to all of you developers especially planetx whose build I have been using for over a week now and am very happy with. :good::good::good:

Sorry, couldn't resist ;)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:
That would at least explain why I had 0 reboots: I never use GPS.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] :
sadly bc of the low SOT had to reverse back to touchwiz. (have 8+ hours days in the university, need the extra juice :P)

guess I'll come try again in the next build or the one after that to see if something changes.

btw whats the protocol according to CM support? are we eligible for nightlys already? and if we are when is that going to start happening? [MENTION=3296134]gekkehenkie11[/MENTION]
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:
No CM support yet but Slayher is working on it.

Anyway, it seems we can expect Touchwiz Lollipop for the Note 4 soon: http://www.gsmarena.com/galaxy_note_4_lollipop_manual_appears_update_imminent-news-10761.php so that would make a lot of things much easier (we can directly then use their hardware drivers, we now needed to modify HAL drivers for the camera for example, cause KitKat drivers dont work). So I'm also guessing/hoping that we can solve the battery issues that way. At the very least, it should make it easier to track the issue(s) down, cause we can then just compare log's.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] utopiate:
I will install TW lollipop when its released just to get a look but I know that given TW colour palette is still awful it will get uinstalled again pretty quickly lol. I read that TW lollipop is a vast improvement performance wise with no lag found. The best thing that could happen is that multirom gets ported to the Note 4 then we don't have to choose just run both lol woot! gekkehenkie11 I reckon you could easily put the multirom port together here's a link https://github.com/Tasssadar/multirom/wiki/Porting-MultiROM It has been ported to the Note 2 so I cant see any reason why it cant be to the N4. I'd have the TW lollipop in the primary slot and a couple of custom roms. Multi-booting is just sexy, there i said it lol

Hi I've been using it for the past week and I must say it might not be the same level of stock but it does last me a 17hr day with about 2hr to 3hr of screen time on. I still can't get 3g to toggle and sometimes the lte togfes but doesn't work but that not a big deal. Also yesterday i was using the ROM like normal and that thing that says say 380mah and 3220capacity. It was not there for the whole day of using the rom.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] dlads:
Any idea how to make the CPU scale up slower? In set cpu, all I have to do is hover the S pen over the screen and it's bumped up to 1.7ghz, I've played with all the settings within at cpu and have created some battery saving tweaks but it's while it's on I'm losing the most battery, unnecessarily though. Navigating the handset shouldn't require 1.7ghz, if I could tweak that down to 1ghz let's say, it'd help.

Can I just ask what are people's battery projections in battery within settings? I've got 20 hours listed.

Have also been setting set cpu to run at 422 min and max when screen is off with set cpu using profiling, it has been taking too. Will do another test tonight to see how it's doing overnight
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] :
its usually around 20~hours idle but with only 2.5-3SOT. max I got was 3.5SOT
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] dlads:
That's pretty good, I think once we break 24 hours on this well be making major headway, once lollipop is released we might see some more development for cm12 and the like, I do miss halo, it's such a cool edition to your device.

As knuckles has already said, we need another kernel.

---------- Post added at 05:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:09 PM ----------

I'd have thought that development for the note 4 would be vast but it's been quite quiet in comparison to some of the other handsets I've had, it is a niche device I suppose, and still pretty new.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/linaro-android/+bug/1023985

This is a thread relating to surfaceflinger, I've been seeing this in better battery stats. Not sure if anyone has been able to eradicate this but if it's a factor for battery drain then I'd like to remove it, any help with this would be great.

A user has written the code needed for the kernel I believe, inputting this data or even if it relates is beyond my understanding but I thought someone else might be able to make use of it.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:
I owned a S4 Exynos and development was NOWHERE as quick as it has been for the Note 4. Slayher and Fattire have been working 2 months non stop pretty much every day it seems and that's why we got so quickly where we are now. But most development communication is happening on IRC, so maybe that's why you get the impression it's not happening fast. But really, to get so quickly from nothing to where we are now, I think that's quite amazing and I've never seen that before.

Anyway, the last pieces are always the most difficult, like the battery drain. It's quite hard to track down since we don't have any clear indication. It seems there are 2 problems:

1) Battery usage during deep sleep is (much) higher than Touchwiz, about 1.5% hour

2) Battery usage during usage is (much) higher.

The last is most probably caused by different CPU scaling, as the CPU seems to scale up to higher frequencies MUCH more than TW does. I'm currently researching on the first problem and that's quite difficult to pinpoint: we know CPU is sleeping allright. Yet, battery drains 1.5% hour (should be about 0.3% hour). So, as the CPU is in deep sleep, it must be some other hardware piece that is not at sleep at all. I've been trying to find out what that is but it's not easy since it could literally be anything, like a sensor being on continually or maybe the HDMI module for example. So without any clear hints, it's quite complicated, so don't expect a solution too soon ....

---------- Post added at 01:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:27 AM ----------

BTW, just found this REALLY nice overview, showing the hardware and the power usage: http://xdaforums.com/note-4/general/note-4-knowledge-t2935975

For example I was just researching our UV sensor, but that takes only 1 mAh so that cant be our problem (we're looking for somehing that eats about 25 mAh)

Bluetooth Volume step 10

Hello,

I'm not sure if its been mentioned I'm also aware that it is not a priority at this point in time but just wanted to make sure it was mentioned. Step 10 of the Bluetooth volume gets louder and louder by itself, step 11 does not do this and steps up correctly.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] dlads:
Wasn't having a go gekkehenkie11, just in comparison to the s3 and htc one I had, it's very different, the work that been done is superb. I suppose with the devices being segregated into different hardware makes a big difference too.

Anyway, I'm just about to come to the end of a charge from yesterday, it's been more than 24 hours iirc

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:
So, the first good news today is, more terrorists are dead :) The second good news is that I've gotten an interesting idea: there's a phone repairshop here with a pretty skilled technician. I think if I give him $100, he'll measure my phone and he'll probably be able to measure which part is draining battery while in deep sleep. I will visit them later today to ask if he can do that. Cause without that it's pretty much like searching for a needle in a haystack: it literally could be anything.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] albireox:
Not that I wouldn't like to have this issue fixed, but isn't it more wise to just wait for the official Samsung L update? It should be out soon, probably this month.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:
Well I checked yesterday: there was almost a month between samsung putting their S5 lollipop manual online and releasing the ROM. If same would be true for the Note, we might have to wait another month ... Besides, it's really not said that with TW Lollipop drivers we can fix the issue.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] albireox:
Indeed. I can't imagine how he will be able to measure that, but it should be interesting. Still, $100 are a lot of money, maybe we can contribute ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] dlads:
I'll throw £10 for that mate, not sure how many dollars that is, any more takers?

Oh and 27 hours my phone was on for, i began charging again on 9%

I'm in with 10 euros.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:
Thanks guys, appreciate it, but let me first check with him if he's even able to measure it. I'll let you guys know later today hopefully.

Why's your phone awake the entire time?? Should your awake time not more closely resemble that of your SOT? That looks like one massive wakelock to me?

Yea that's what I thought, I suck at better battery stats. Saying that, 27 hours with 9% left on this ROM I didn't think we too bad..
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] dominicstg2:
just wondering if i do what you said in a previous post about how the new build i think one in dec which i had to flash an old build sign in and everything then flash the newer build over. i wanted to make a clean install of the 01-15-15 but signal is not working should i install a old build to fix this or am i doing something wrong? also i have tried to fix the issue with 3g not swiching over from 4g and downloading a mms and nothing is working in that sense
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] dlads:
Haven't experienced this issue with the network not switching, in a previous build I had an issue with the network dropping but I tend to ignore things like that as I know it can happen on any build, so long as it doesn't become an inconvenience, can I ask are you based in the UK? What model of the phone you have please? Because if it's the same as me 910f, I can only assume that it's a glitch, unless it's down to a difference in our networks or set up.

On installation of the 1/10 build, I'd advise a full wipe and flashing the rom, blobs then gapps. Allow a boot, for your apn if needed then see how it goes, I in advert entry went for the new one with a dirty flash, which is something I don't do very often, so it could be that it's retained something from the previous build, however I was under the impression that the previous build was the same one without some fixes.

If you're experiencing issues then just leap in and try some combinations, avoid restoring anything for the time being before you can test everything.

Hope this helps.

Surely waiting for a 5.0 ril/radio will improve it?

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] dlads:
May or may not, not saying that it won't, but even with the radio off the device loses power quicker than touchwiz based roms so it isn't solely that.

Edit: if you were referring to the previous poster I replied to then I agree with you..
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:
I kinda changed my opinion :) I was looking at note 4 disassembly guides and I think it's going to be pretty difficult to measure current, cause the device has te be on and the interesting chips like NFC are on the back of the mainboard, so I think it might be impossible to measure that. Besides there is indeed a good chance that Samsung Lollipop drivers will fix the issue's, so I think I'll wait for that first. Hoping they will hurry up with that :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Drizzy xS:
So just to confirm can this rom be run on the international model 910f? Cause I tried to flash it and it says it's for t mobile and fails

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] dlads:
Are there any extensive diagnostic tools which output these currents? Kind of like a bios on a PC. Would be a pain in the arse to get a multi meter on those chips.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] albireox:
This kinda makes sense. If there are such tools (probably software), only Samsung has access to them. Let's hope the L will come soon to our device.

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] dlads:
Nah I don't mate, I'm with EE, you do have a slightly different model to me but if it's been working before then it still should, the non switching is a strange issue, I've noticed cut outs before like I said, one of the triggers I believe I've found, although I'm not sure on the correlation between the two, my friend sent me a vcf contact, I attempted to open it, when it failed my mobile data disconnected, airplane mode brought it back, I did this three times and the same thing happened each time, I tend not to use wifi otherwise I wouldn't have noticed it... Give the full wipe a whirl, see if that helps, see if you can make a note of possible triggers affecting your mobile data, I'm assuming at times it doesn't happen. .. Hope this helps m8

The bugs list isn't as consistent as you would expect from a touchwiz rom, as this is an unofficial build of a rom which already has bugs it's difficult to say, battery life is probably the big one, although we're trying to fix that all the time, it's got to a point where it's manageable but still not on the same level as touchwiz, FYI and with all due respect, you probably won't find a complete bug list with cm and AOSP as you would with touchwiz threads. I believe cm12 the official rom has a bug list that this ROM would be consistent with

and then some as this phone / model isn't yet officially supported yet.

To have got this ROM to the stage it's at is an achievement in itself, I believe it can be used as a daily driver and hasn't failed me yet.
