There isn't really much you can do...rooting and disabling some apps might help, also have you done wipe after the update?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] uktechguru:
Have a look at my previous posts. I put some suggestions on what to do with battery issue after update to lollipop.

- I removed all Google accounts

- Rebooted

- Checked the sync options of all other accounts incising Google account

- Went into location and set in power saving mode

After doing above my battery was better. Make sure you have the up to date version of Google play services as well from apkmirror

loving lollipop so far..

just a couple issues though..

when holding the button on the side to switch off the phone or restarting it.. they took of the options to put the phone on silent/vibrate/loud... WHYYYY??????

also i dont know if anyone knows.. but the new google chrome browser update for lollipop how do you switched between tabs?? they have changed it

[Galaxy Note 4 General] GidiK:
Silent mode is in the quick settings as is a new do not disturb mode. Chrome tabs can be switched via recents. If you want to change tabs the old fashioned way, you can change it in chrome settings.

I'm having issues with view a picture RIGHT after taking it (on BOC5): It takes FOREVER to load it. When it does load it, it takes FOREVER to be able to delete it / pinch to zoom / or really, anything that interacts with that image...

Has anyone found any fixes for it?

Issues 2: GPS location for images is back to before BOC3. Now if you load the camera with location tags on, and it doesn't find your position in time, it leaves it out. No data. In BOC 3 it was VERY fast and I could never take a picture fast enough to NOT get the data. But now with BOC5... It's back to before :(

Anyone else?

Dirty flash?

Try a full wipe and it should be fine.

I'll give it a try this weekend. Thank you.

I tried everything to resolve battery issues on my Note 4 after LP upgrade, eventually as a last resort i full reset again but this time chose to start afresh instead of restoring from google when prompted, then re-installed just the apps i really wanted this time (good chance to dump some junk apps) one by one keeping an eye on battery usage.

Battery life never been better and I'm back to 2x full days normal usage (for me) from a charge.

Anyone who had the N910FXXU1BOC5_N910FOXA1BOC3_alexndr rom installed & have now flashed the N910FXXU1BOC5_N910FBTU1BOB2_BTU rom, have you just dirty flashed or have you done a full factory reset?

Ta
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sPEADy:
[MENTION=313982]home[/MENTION] its always better to flash any sort of Roms stock or cm based that you always do a factory reset in recovery to avoid any complication, I personally do factory reset before flashing and after flashing as well. If you downgrade from new version to old version you must factory reset otherwise constent bootlop. Make backup of your data and happy flashing. Good luck.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] uktechguru:
iPlayer issues are known on lollipop no matter which ROM you're using. BBC haven't fixed the problem yet so you'll have to hang tight until they do.

---------- Post added at 11:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 AM ----------

I agree, Note 4 will get future updates. Look at the Note 3 and S4, there getting lollipop updates despite being over 18 months old. In guessing that Note 4 will get 5.1 but I too am waiting for Note 5. They're suggesting it'll have a 5.9 inch screen. What do you guys think, too big or OK? Rumours suggesting it'll also have the dual curve like s6 edge.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] lrm537:
That's what I thought. There's no way it can be working yet. Even the BBC have mentioned that it's a known issue yet to be addressed. It works on other devices, even the S6, but the Note4 is having none of it.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] tinker_tf:
I *was* running the multi-csc DBT version (so on my phone BTU) and now I am running the latest BTU version that recently rolled out, and it's still working.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] uktechguru:
Hey guys, found this new app that makes the screen light up when notifications are received whilst the phone is locked. At the moment, Note 4 doesn't have any option to do this. It would have been possible with ambient display but for one reason or another, Samsung left that out despite the Note 4 qualifying with having an amoled screen. Glimpse notifications is really well developed. Still has some development to do but it's a great start. Head over to the thread for more information and download link:

[Galaxy Note 4 General] nikc0069:
Honestly it's pretty solid. Battery seems fine and it's very smooth. Looks like Samsung is rolling it out as official. I'm on the Israeli version and just waiting for the ee version with wifi calling. I was wondering if anyone knew if this is similar to how the US tmobile wifi calling works ie if it can be added to other roms. Or whether a rom with tmobile wifi calling can have ee settings inserted somehow.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] @home:
But I am tempted to do a full reset as i was trying other region lollipop roms DBT etc before i flashed the BTU rom, dirty flash that is. But not sure if would gain anything for all the work I'd be putting in to the reset & reinstall of everything.

Any opinions?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] MATT4CK:
So is there any reason to flash the UK unbranded boc5 if I'm running the CSC modified Israeli boc5? I understand they they are exactly the same which is why I'm not getting a prompt to do the update OTA.

I have just noticed that I have quite a lot of wake ups when the screen is off. Anyone else had this? Having trouble attaching a screenshot today.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] MATT4CK:
Screenshot of wake ups.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Batfink33:
Nothing to do with the Rom version. The wakeups will be being caused by Google Play Services, Apps and Samsungs own added bloat. To get rid of them you'll have to root, and use an app to hibernate them or disable the Google Services that are causing them. To get rid of some of the Google Play Services wakelocks, sign out of your Google Play account in the settings page then reboot and sign back in. That should help.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] uktechguru:
There's a reason why you're not getting the update, primarily because you've got the latest release, as you mentioned, with the modified Israeli release. If your CSC is aligned you probably will get future updates depending on what your CSC is etc.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] owned139:
While flashing and using CM12.1 my device gets realy hot.

CPU goes up to 80°C and stays at 50°C while using whatsapp.

Is this normal?

With stock Rom the temperature never goes above 40°C.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] uktechguru:
You'll have to check on the cm12.1 ROM thread for help with that. I don't think the cm ROM has ever stabilised yet and had quite a few bugs still.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3046965

[Galaxy Note 4 General] MATT4CK:
Thanks for the pointers. I wonder if Google play services is a little more aggressive with its tracking in lollipop. I used to see completely uninterrupted sleep state right through the night but the last few versions have been waking my over more and more. Or at least that's how it seems to me. I'll try deleting my Google account from my phone, rebooting abs signing in again as you suggest and see if it helps.

Was really just curious to see if anyone else had found the same.

Thanks again

please at least act as if you had a brain and don't compare totally different use case scenarios against each other.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] uktechguru:
Did you do a fresh install or install over previous version? Fresh install might help or factory reset. Also read back in this thread about how to improve battery.

It has already been discussed but if you're using your phone a lot, you need to keep in mind that the other two phones you've listed as comparisons don't have a battery hungry quad super amoled HD 1440 x 2560 pixel resolution screen. The screen is very battery hungry and you'll only get 6-8 hours total on screen time. If you use it a lot, as much as a power user, then your battery will drain quicker.

Just have a read back about the experiences people have had and suggestions /explanations people have given.

There's no way you can compare the Note 4 to a 4.7" iPhone 6 with a 750 x 1334 pixel resolution or the 5.5" Note 2 with a 720 x 1280 pixels resolution. Hardly a comparison against the Note 4's 1440 x 2560 pixel resolution.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] foxmeister:
According to the BBC, it's a firmware issue, not theirs.

It works fine on the S6 Edge and, apparently, the same issue existed on the S5 and was fixed with a firmware update.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] Ashatar:

[Galaxy Note 4 General] Batfink33:
There's nothing built in to Lollipop that will actively learn what you usage is and then adjust the Rom or kernel accordingly. I would hazard a guess that once all your apps are installed and the phone settles down after a few days, the battery life will increase slightly.

I expect for EE ... nothing, they move so slowly
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dhd1802:
can anyone who has yet to upgrade, do a check on the signal strength before and after you upgrade. i'm more interested in those who use their phones in areas where the signal is weak/poor.

my phone, unbranded EE, went from ~1% time without a signal (kitkat), to around ~7% time without a signal (lollipop) over a day.

i had the same issue with poor time without signal (poor signal area) when upgrading a lg g3 from kk to lollipop.

screen on time / battery life improved with both, though at the expense of signal

[Galaxy Note 4 General] ZombieSleeper:
Can I ask, why are you so hyped for Lolipop? I've updated yesterday to LL and it's nothing more than a light reskin with very few things changed, not sure what you we're expecting. What will 5.0.2 or 5.1.1 actually bring beside material design, which I couldn't care less about to be honest? If they would bring the camera or fingerprint scanner from S6 then that would at least be something to wait for.

Don't get me wrong I'm not defending Samsung, but being upset over some rounded corners and reworked lockscreen doesn't seem to be worth in my opinion. But hey that might be only my opinion :)

The only thing I like about LL is that Google finally gives access to apps to modify contents on the sdcard so I can finally delete songs/tv shows directly from the music/video player without having to use the Samsung File Manager and look for the file manually.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] BeEmEroff:
yes i did...same result...only pen working :(
