Try and keep this room civil though guys, the rom is superb as is, it's just the battery life which is prompting people to want more, and as annoying as this can be, try to refrain from asking for timelines as these guys aren't working for us, they're doing this for fun :) this is something they're sharing with us for free.

Everyone is awaiting an update, lets just let them do their stuff ;)

[MENTION=5998652]The Dev[/MENTION]'s is there anything we can do? Testing the rom? Logcats?

Have been de-activating a tonne of stuff using autostarts in the hope that it'll find the part that's draining the battery, I think it could be on a kernel level though.

I've seen surface flinger and finger print causing problems in better battery stats and google plus even though i've uninstalled it?

Do we know what the cause of the drain is?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] knuckles1978:
As well as checking auto-starting apps, use greenify to hibernate apps when you switch the screen off. Remember, you need to choose all the apps you want to greenify after you install it. This will close down apps that you have been using, but don't need to stay running in the background.

Edit: FYI surface flinger is 2d gfx, in case you didn't already know. And freeze Google+ with titanium backup if you don't want it.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:
Also make sure you use batterbatterystats 2.0. Latest RC6 just came out today, and he probably is pushing final 2.0 this weekend. Find 2.0 RC6 here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179809

---------- Post added at 12:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:30 AM ----------

As we seem to have all features of stock now available, I think it's time to start improving current features. And batterylife is first in my opinion, so that's where at least I'm going to invest my time in from now on. And you guys can help ! First of all I need info on how stock TW is performing, I literally have ran it for less than a day since I bought the Note 4 so I dont know much about it :) Please let me know how much it drains when in 'deep sleep' etc. Then, make sure you gather info on your current CM12 experience, preferably using betterbatterystats 2.0. You can download Rc6 which was release today here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15869886&postcount=2

Then, if you report and monitor pay especially attention to:

1) Is there a huge difference between awake time and screen-on time ? If so, see if you can find out why: is there a wakelock for example ? ->

2) Are there partial wakelocks ? If so, which ? I don't care about a 1 minute wakelock when your device has been running 24 hours. But if your device is up an hour and somethign is wakelocking for 30 minutes, then that's a problem.

3) Are there big kernel wakelocks ?

Just get me all info you can. And make sure you're always on the latest builds !!

Oh and for the more experienced users: try:

adb shell dumpsys batterystats > output.txt

it's a new API in lollipop with tons of info, analyse it and see if you can make anything out of it !
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] dlads:
Like i said, I've already uninstalled it, I know about greenify and surface flinger, iirc the CRT animation was tied to it.

Better battery stats is reporting that the screen is kept 100% awake all the time, I can optimize quite well myself, but I fear its going to be an uphill struggle.

One thing I've found is that reducing the CPU lower threshold doesn't keep the setting, the vast majority of time is spent on 1.7Ghz.

Anyway I'll keep going.

Thanks for your suggestion.

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:
If it's reporting that, then your screen must be on 100% of the time ? Can you post a screenshot of the betterbatterystats window "? Also see if you have it selected to report since boot or since unplugged.

Looks like it is coming along nicely, Just wondering if anyone has had any success with running this on an Australina N910G? I realize its built for the F version but was just curious.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Mattycee:
I am running it on an Aussie model bought from The Good Guys. Mine in N910G and is now showing in settings as SM-N910F

Just need to remove the reference to the F model in the zip or flash the F Model stock rom. I just removed the reference that checks its an F model as they can be interchanged.

I'm currently on PhilZ Touch recovery, I am looking to flash TWRP, however, I want to know if this will wipe my current ROM and all my data. Do I need to backup and restore?

I read somewhere that if I install via Odin I'll be fine, via recovery I will not. Again, any confirmation would be great!
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Planet X:
Flashing a recovery does not wipe your data or your current rom. You can do that with Flashify, a tool from Play store, or install it with Odin or even just flash it through your current recovery. I use Flashify all the time. But if you made backups in Philz they won't restore with TWRP. You have to create a new backup.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:
Yes flashify is really the best, easiest and safest way to flash a recovery !

---------- Post added at 04:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:10 PM ----------

I'm pretty sure when the phone is off, it's really off ;) So not drawing any battery. BUT, what seems to be a general problem with the Note 4 (not just CM, but it also happens on TW) is that the battery measurement can be quite inaccurate. You can be on the same percent for hours and you're like "Wow this battery life is amazing" just do see it drop 3 percent after that in a few minutes. I've seen that happen both on Stock as CM, so doesnt seem to be ROM specific, but more something in the way battery power is being measured.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] lukazaz:
all good now :)

Only "issue" was after some errors I decided to do a wipe using the twrp and did not know the wipe I had selected would also wipe internal storage so had to recopy all my things to it again but other than that I'm all good :highfive:

now I only need to find the files to do it for my wifes S5 (G900F but looks like there is a official CM12 release so I should be ok for the moment)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:
Did you root the ROM ? Those issue's you describe seem like the issue's that appear when you actually try to root the ROM. Do NOT do that !! The ROM is rooted already, you just need to enable it in developers options. When you do not do that, but root it instead and/or try to flash super SU and then see it fail via the normal method and then try it via the 'recovery' method, then you will run into all kinds of troubles, very similar to the ones you just described. The device will for example get boiling hot, almost to the point you could fry an egg on it :) Scary stuff indeed.

So, this is the way to do it correctly:

1) flash the ROM

2) Enable developers options (google it if you dont know how)

3) Enable root access in developer options

4) Upgrade Super SU (if you use that) via the *normal* method (playstore method, no recovery).

This should be in the first post of the thread. I think I will open it anyway today. Still no nightlies, but at least the ROM is official now, since it's hosted on Cyanogenmod, so although you can't download it yet, you can build it yourself from the official CM site, which makes it .... official :) So I guess no more need to wait for a new thread, cause it's not helping anybody if we need to go through the same questions and problems every single day.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] badelemental:
Guys ... the DPI seems a bit weird. In dialer UI the call button seems stretched. Anyone knows what should be the default stock DPI settings (like Nexus 6) ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Narekrocks:
Everything is multidpi on CM so it shoudln't look weird. And by dialer button stretched I assume you mean it is oval and there are 2 icons inside? One of which opens up a page with an error. Yeah, that is a known bug.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] criff:
never did.

detailed flash history (my device n910f / trltexx):

1. came from stock german BOB4 Rom flashed via odin

2. flashed twrp 2.8.5 via odin

3. wiped dalvik, system, data, internal storage, cache via twrp

4. flashed your cm12 build with date 11.02.2015

5. rooted via cm12 developer options

6. never installed/flashed supersu/cf-auto-root

7. used Titanium backup version 7xx to restore apps without data to stay clean

had the same behavior with pupax builds from 16.02 to 20.02 and i always clean installed (wiped) before flashing the zip and wiped dalvik/cache after flashing the zip.

p.s. using micro PA gaps
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] badelemental:
Exactly ... Anyways I just want to know what is the default DPI Note 4 uses. Should have taken a backup before installing CM. I kind of like the stock experience just like Nexus :P
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Tom540:
Using a root browser, its in the system folder. You can also use build.prop editors in the play store
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Cave_diver:
That's what I thought too, if it's off it must be off. But as we all know, it is not ever completely powered off. It will still have a timer for alarms, it detects buttons that are pressed and charger cables that are inserted etc.

Anyway, I'm not making this up :) I turned it off twice now, both times at 100%,. I got the confirmation through the vibration too.

Both times it drew more battery powered off than it would have when turned on and idling.

Something is not right here.

I will try with the stock 5.01 ROM tonight to rule out any issues unrelated to CM12.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Planet X:
This has nothing to do with the dpi settings. It's just the dialer.apk has been messed up. If you search for dialer.apk in this thread you will find an AOSP dialer which is working and without that strange button. I have posted that a week ago. I have added this apk to the gapps backup script so it will not be overwritten while updating cm. Here is the link to that post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58927572&postcount=1909
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Narekrocks:
Note 4 DPI is 640 the default.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:
That seems all good to me ... Not sure why you were experiencing problems, my phone never gets hotter than stock (which tends to get quite warm as well, especially if you do NAND writes, for example when installing).
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] badelemental:
Thanks ... I did as you suggested and now dialer seems fine :) Thanks :cowboy:

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:
I just tried this (wanted to see how the dailer is even supposed to look cause I dont know) but my whole dailer button disappeared after doing this :D Luckily made a backup as you suggested ;)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] criff:
Its not getting really hot, its just much warmer than stock when i play a game and charge at the same time. with stock the device is comfortable warm during gameplay and charge at once, with cm it is too warm and not comfortable anymore. I think the kernel is a bit tweaked or samsung lowered performance in their kernel. Would explain the 3000 Antutu points difference between the roms.

The other much more hurting pain is the broken stock exchange service, the low transfer rate and Xcom Enemy Unknow not working.

I think everybody should experience the low data transfer rate from extsd to internal sd and vice versa ..

p.s. could things change after samsung released their lollipop kernel sources?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:
Hmm I dont think my phone gets hotter than stock. About the other issue's:

1) I never tried the 'exchange service', how do I do that and what is wrong exactly ?

2) That game I can just try from the store ?

3) Transfer rates seem quite rapid here but will do some tests

i could use stock android exchange with your builds with date about 18.02. no gmail exchange service and gmail needed. syncing calender and contacts worked but during e-mail sync the mail client and exchange service crashed continuously. maybe cm took it out in one of the later releases..

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] callum_88:
I just installed exchange services and an older version of the email app according to a thread on XDA and now exchange works fine for me.

I'm pretty sure it was removed in the later versions by google for some reason so I don't think its a bug, because I've manually updated my email app on CM11 and the exchange was removed (if this is what your referring to).
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] gekkehenkie11:

One thing I recognise in all of this builds is, that icons in statubar ar not korrekt. I mean the silence/favourites/vibrate-icons. For instance if i choose silent mode in profiles a circle-icon appears in statusline. That´s ok so far. But if I turn backt to loudness-mode the favorites (star) icon appears. After that I can switch to what I want, the staricon don´t dissappear any more. I always have to reboot to show the right icon or "no" icon.

Maybe you can fix this?

Tested it on stock tonight, zero battery drain too.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] torquadon:
I never tried this before, but just tested it now, and can confirm I have the same problem on build from 25th.

And now I know why. When you change profile it changes interruptions for priority. Just change it back to all and star will disappear. When you change volume you have 3 buttons: none priority and all, change it to all.

If you want "default" profile to change it for you please change "ring mode" from "leave unchanged" to normal.

Hi!!

Just about to flash latest build but I have a weird issue, my phone heats up to 40/41°C after charging and RAM goes up to 90% usage with no apps running - rebooting seems to "fix" the issue and ram usage goes down to 40/45% (normal??)

Charging was done using Anker 15AH battery -2.0A charging port, changed to a USB port on a HP LA1956x monitor (no data only power) but data (Elixir 2) shows weird charging values does ----dev want a video of the screen?

Thinking it was the cable I took a new HTC cable and tested with same results

Changed to a McMaster brand USB cable same issue

Digikey brand USB cable... same issue

"old Samsung" USB cable... same issue

cable that came with phone is @ home so have yet to check but it always causes the heating up :(
