[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OnlinePredator:
Yep I use the S-pen maybe once every two days. I use it when I come across complicated websites (ability to use it like a mouse is good), and when I RDP into PC's as it gives mouse like accuracy compared to fat fingers.

Although I would actually give up the spen for a slightly smaller screen. I watch a lot of videos and browse the net a lot and the screen size is fantastic. But it's living with it which gets to me. It's just so big, having it in your pocket is extremely noticeable. Sitting down with tight pants is super uncomfortable and even just taking it out of your pocket you realise how big it is. I came from an S4, perhaps my next phone will be 5.5" or less. I still enjoy using my S4 (wifes phone now), and do miss the size of it. Hope that helps you.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zurkx:
i use the s-pen as a notebook. write all you want and hit print for hardcopy. you can actually print from the note 4 directly over wifi.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magnesus:
Note 4 caused me to remove all paper from my home office. I write all work notes in LectureNotes. I also use it as notepad after work - for new words, sentences, reminders and todos.

For university note taking I prefer a tablet with stylus (I use Note 10.1 for that - I wrote hundreds of pages on it).
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darekz:
Besides s-pen, Note4 is the only phone working with Gear VR (snapdragon versions so far)
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eagle 3:
I use the S-Pen for everything. I rarely is my finger. The S-Pen is so much easier to use when typing, tapping on links on a web page, playing games, etc. And the screen doesn't get smudged up.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dman230:
Thank you all!

this is exactly what i was looking for, if anyone else wants to add his experience, it will be great.

still not so sure why writing on a screen with a pen is more comfortable than typing a screen keyboard.

I guess I'll visit SAMSUNG store and play with it a bit
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NamelessFragger:
That little Wacom pen is THE reason why I only consider the Galaxy Note line as my smartphone of choice. It's that important.

Jot down notes in OneNote just like on my Tablet PCs (thank god they finally added ink support!), sketch things in Clover Paint, work as a mouse substitute for those pesky mouseover navigation bars on Web sites, maybe even serve as an external drawing tablet with the right software; it's like having a Tablet PC in the palm of my hand, just with Android instead of WIndows.

I admittedly don't use it on the keyboard. There's no reason for me to do so when the sheer width of the screen makes it easy for me to just use my fingers, especially compared to the old Galaxy S3 I was stuck with for the last two years. The Graffiti input panel (remember Palm OS?), on the other hand, would work really nicely with the pen if I decide to use that again.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] starbuckk:
Sometimes its quicker to write a note than type. Sometimes you want to circle typet text to call it out.

Maybe you want to sketh a diagram. Pen is more accurate than finger.

Got a pdf file you want to write a note in? Or take a picture then circle something in the picture?

Just a few of many possibilities.

He got a Chinese brand phone - Mi-Fone Mi-A200.

It is locked in password mode - he doesn't remember it.

I want to reset it to factory settings.

I tried to boot into recovery using volume up / down + screen lock -> both didn't get me there.

when i connect it using usb it is detected as Quallcom usb device in windows 7, but the driver is not found.

tried to use generic usb driver - failed.

I need help finding the appropriate driver to reset it using adb.

Any one else getting horrible battery life (comparatively to KitKat)?

Also, sometimes after reboot cellular won't work. Sometimes it randomly does. When it doesn't, the baseband under "About tablet " says unknown.

Performance, especially in terms of UI is great through, smoother than KitKat IMO.

Edit: My points stand for all the nighties I have tried (Jan 11-14)

Baseband Version Unknown

Hello all, i flashed the CM o114 nightly and so far it's all good, except for the baseband, it says:

Baseband Version Unknown

on my Nexus 7 2013 4G

Is anybody else facing this issue?

I looked everywere and found no info before posting here.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] delgado83:
Yea I have that too. I thought I messed something up yesterday during the flash but I restored an earlier backup and I had the baseband back. It is ROM related I think.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] jffonseca10:
Oddly i flashed the updated PA Gapps, wipe Dalvik and cache, rebooted and there was the baseband (?)
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] andyskelly:
Had the same problem. Wiped the cache and Dalvik and it works thanks jffonseca10
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] delgado83:
For some reason nothing is bringing the baseband back. Everything else works.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] jffonseca10:
Forgot to mention that i flashed radio from stock 4.4.4.

Reboot into recovery, wiped dalvik and cache.

Reboot, and baseband was there!
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] h0tkey:
Dirty flashed the 14-Jan nightly on the 10-Jan build: radio is OK after a reboot.

On the 10-Jan nightly it took about 3 reboots in the two hours after installation to establish mobile radio connection.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] ViViDboarder:
My bootloader shows baseband as DEB_z00_2.42.0_1204 but I still don't get any data connection despite several reboots.

Every once and a while I will notice it working but then shortly after it is gone again.

I've tried to capture logs but I can't seem to find anything worth capturing. I'm happy to pull more if OP needs.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Christian72D:
I´m missing one feature: to create my own buttons.

I was using the Nova Launcher with the Tablet GUI and placed a menu button in the lower right corner.

But now i don´t find this option.

Will it come or is it gone with Lollipop?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] TheAmazingDave:
This is great! I was so tired of waiting for Google to release Lollipop for the mobile N7. The wait has ended!

Like other reported, my cellular didn't work because the baseband was missing. I tried flashing the radio from Google's KitKat firmware, and it worked a treat.

Otherwise, I played with it a bit last night after flashing, and everything so far seems to work as expected. Super stoked!
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] rmkilc:
What exactly are you guys doing to get cellular connectivity? I have tried flashing the radio from 4.4.4, and I get nothing. It still says baseband version unknown.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] stgeorge88:
worked ot of the box. mind u that i came from another L build and thus have updated booloader before. not sure if thats the reason.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] rmkilc:
I updated the bootloader to the L version from the wifi only model. This didn't resolve the problem.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bongster:
I don't know why it works but I updated the bootloader back to the last deb version and after a second reboot the baseband appeared and now my device goes back to deep sleep again.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] przez:
Had the same problem. I flashed at first full wipe 0115 with no baseband succes. Then I flashed 0111 over it and then again 0115. Radio works great so far.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] derekedw:
Where are you guys getting the deb kk boot loader?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] P3dRo:
Everything is working here, including LTE connection, without the newest bootloader (from flo).

Only once I had problem with the baseband, and a reboot was all the I needed to fix it.

Ps: I update from the CM11 to the unofficial nightlies.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] kamistral:
Same here with 5ghz, but today's version seems to be better. Because downloading try CyanDelta from Play Store ;)

Yes, called LiveDisplay, works nicely :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Noeljunior:
No, I'm asking for ambient display. It shows the notifications while screen is off on a black and white screen. The live display is to adjust the colour temperature base on day time. I can't boot this rom but it seems that this is not enable on this rom.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] kamistral:
Oh sorry, misunderstood. Didn't find ambient display for screen-off notifications in settings, guess not enabled.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Noeljunior:
Does anyone have any trouble installing this? I wipe everything and i install only the rom. Sometimes the bootanimation runs at 5fps, sometimes not. When it passes the bootanimation, it hangs on "Starting apps". Tried different builds and is always the same.

I'm using the latest bootloader and the latest twrp. Am I missing anything? Thanks
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] 23598685:
Try to install cm11 and straight afterwards cm12.1

This worked for me.

Stock rom 5.11 and Illustrous boot fine, but installing CM12.1 afterwards behaves as you write.

there is a mess with QS Tiles, could be that you see autorotade image but it's on portrait and vice versa. just hold the device in landscape and trigger the tile with a pause in between to give it time to react. this is to find the right tile postition. after that you know that it will work you just have to toggle even though it's showing as on already until this get's fixed. today it's still not fixed on my side.

[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] smakme7757:
Seeing as SELinux in Enforcing mode causes problems and permissive doesn't I had to presume it was a faulty or missing SElinux policy causing the problems.

I've been looking at the source the last few days and I think i might have a solution. I was able to dump a lot of SELinux violations from Logcat which sort of pointed me in the right direction. Then with some help from a moderator on CM-DEV irc channel (Who was extremely helpful!) we think we might have found a possible solution. A bug has been thrown up on CMs Gerrit, which might promt a tester at CM to check out the bug.

I'm building a fresh copy of CM 12.1 with the possible fix and will test it out. I'll let you people know if it worked.

If it does work I'll post a copy of the build that you guys can also test.

But as will all things in life no guarentees :)

Didn't work unfortunately.

I'll keep digging. But at bug has been logged in with the CM team, so we can hope one of them takes a look.

[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] MorphlinQc:
Hi Guys,

I've been having the radio issue (Baseband Unknown) with the nightlies and just wanted to share how I solved my problem as I didn't see this solution posted anywhere.

So here's the story. (See *** for immediate solution) Every time I flash TWRP, I first unlock the bootloader using "fastboot oem unlock". Then I flash recovery. I then re-lock the bootloader for data safety. Finally, I install the Cyanogen package and GApps. Result: Baseband Unknown.

As I read some had success flashing stock radio, I thought I'd try to flash the basebands from the stock packages.

What I didn't realize is that locking the bootloader prevents the flashing of the radio. So I had to unlock the bootloader to attempt this. I tried them all. Result: Baseband Unknown. I then reinstalled Cyanogen without locking back the bootloader. Surprise! -> Baseband : 2.43.0_1210.

*** Bottom line, the good recovery you want is the one in the Cyanogen package, and having the bootloader locked when installing it, prevents radio flashing.

Hope this helps some of you!

Cheers,
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] blueyes:
I keep mine unlocked, have since day 1. Never had issues with CM12(.1). I don't see any reason to lock it back. I have had data issues with other ROMs, but they didn't flash a radio nor was BL locked.
