To those who desire to get AudioFX working, I just found a solution, a semi-working one though. Only reverb doesn't work but the equalizer and presets do (on headset and speakers at least, didn't try the others).

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/themes-apps/mod-cm12-audiofx-universal-zip-v5-0-16-t3047000

1) Download the zip file in that link

2) Open the zip file and go to system/etc

3) Delete mixer_paths.xml

4) Place the zip on SD card and flash it in recovery.

Managed to find this solution by chance through the transferring of individual files, but credits to eng.stk for porting AudioFX to the Nexus 6 and enjoy! :)

I'd say that's due to running antutu immediately after flashing. NAND writes are primary cause of heating up the chipset, so if you flash and then right after run antuntu, your score will be way lower due to thermal throttling. In fact, try on touchwiz: record 4k video for 2 minutes and immediately run antutu after, you'll get about 28k score.

So, for a fair test, let the device cool down and then run Antutu. You'll score higher than in touchwiz
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] owned139:
Ok thx i try it.

How long does your battery lasts?
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
Pretty much like Touchwiz, about 4 hours SoT. But man it's really hard to compare, it really depends on WHAT you do during SoT. I mean, try this: change your display time-out to 30 minutes and then just let it do nothing with screen on. Your battery will drain with about 2-3%, if I remember correctly you can get almost a whole day Screen on Time if you do NOTHING while your screen is on.

On the other hand, if you run a CPU intensive job like a webbrowser, then you'll get WAY lower. Webbrowsing is so intensive because the CPU has to compute and draw your browser on a UHD screen, so tons of pixels to process. On the other hand if you play video during SoT, that's way less CPU intensive due to hardware acceleration.

Anyway just trying to say, that 'SoT', like people like to compare, is pretty much always comparing apples to oranges. It really depends: what are you doing and which processeses are you running in the background ?

Is there a CM12 kernel that supports Quick Charge?
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] SleemLDJ:
Thanks I will try this and see if it works.

---------- Post added at 08:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:42 PM ----------

I think it does. My phone charges just as fast as it did on TouchWiz. Or maybe just a placebo to my eyes.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Flavio:
The Fast Charge app says Quick Charge is not supported.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
Keep in mind you are talking about different things. There is the type of fast charging that our note 4 supports, it puts simply more electricity through the wires. And then there are fast charging apps, which try to minimize your power usage while charging. Some of them simply disable background processes, like you could do yourself by putting the phone in airplane mode. Or they simply disable USB so that you can not access the pc while connected via USB, this will result in a somewhat faster charging.

I hope this clears it up.

[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] miisterlim:
Copy the mp3 into the 'Ringtones' folder on your internal sd card and it should show up under the ringtone options.

I'm fairly sure my bootloader and baseband were on boc4 before. Now they're on boc3. Could this be because I wiped System?
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] SleemLDJ:
If I'm right.

Our device is (arm) while (arm64) is 64bit phones....right?
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] eeleater:
Then they were boc3 before too, because a wipe cannot downgrade those.

[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Flavio:
I am specifically talking about Qualcomm Quick Charge. The Fast Charge app checks if the kernel supports it and also shows the charge voltage. My Note 4 shows 4.1V and my conclusion is therefore that this particular CM12 ROM/Kernel does not support Quick Charge. The Fast Charge app also has a list of kernels that do support Qualcomm Quick Charge but there is none for the Note 4.

This is a pretty important feature for me and it might force me to go back to a stock TouchWiz ROM.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Mandoza:
It's supported on the cm remix

---------- Post added at 10:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 AM ----------

Thanks I'll try it, but still the cm remix doesn't get hot at all, I think it's that modified kernel, but still it's still a lot of bugs in that, so I'll wait til it these nightlies get stable, til then I'm on touchwiz, but believe me I always used official on my s4 and s5 prime
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Tunestwo:
Any known problems on this rom? Thinking about flashing it today.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
Again, 2 different things here: apps that try to speed up charging by minimizing current power consumption (like putting your phone in airplane mode or disabling USB power draw) and the 'fast charging' as the Note 4 comes with, only working in combo with the special charger. The first are BS apps in my opinion (I mean just put your phone in airplane mode instead or even better: turn it off, no app can beat that !) and the second IS supported. I just measured it: with a normal charger my note 4 pulls 10 watts, with the special Note 4 FAST charger it pulls 17 watts.

It would be very weird if the "REAL" fast charging wasn't supported cause we're just using the samsung kernel as released by themselves, with some tweaks of course.

If you dont believe me: just try it yourself, either measure the external power draw (I use this device it's quite nice: http://www.amazon.com/P3-P4400-Elec...692&sr=8-1&keywords=power+consumption+monitor) or just measure how long it takes in TW and in CM to fully charge the device, preferably while both turned off for a more honest comparison.

I hope this clears it up.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
The ONLY situation where disabling USB to charge slightly faster would make sense in my opinion:

1) You cant use the normal charger cause you're in your car for example and NEED to use the slower USB charging method and you want to squeeze the max out of that slower charing method.

2) You don't mind disabling USB cause you're not using it to stream music for example.

3) You don't want to completely turn off your phone cause you NEED to be available for calls.

In this very specific circumstance, disabling USB to charge slightly faster would make sense. Our kernel indeed doesnt support disabling of USB and honestly I personally really couldnt care less, sorry. But if someone wants to take the time and energy to integrate this into the kernel, be my guest, I'll merge it !

Anyway what I understand from you is that you're not even interested in this, you thought REAL fast charging (in combination with the samsung FAST charger) wasnt supported. That IS supported of course.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] SleemLDJ:
Lool. I like the way you call it dirty TouchWiz.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Flavio:
I was indeed talking about the Qualcomm Quick Charge function. On a TW ROM when I plug in a compatible Quick Charge charger (I have 3 of these) I get a notification saying Fast Charge connected. Since I do not get this notification with a CM12 ROM I doubted whether it was supported.

The Fast Charge app has nothing to do with faster charging methods by disabling WiFi etc. It supposedly can recognize if the kernel supports the Qualcomm Quick Charge function. But when I tested the app with a stock TW ROM it says the kernel doesn't support Quick Charge and clearly it is supported! Clearly the app is faulty.

It would be nice though if the CM12 would recognize if a Quick Charge charger is connected and give a notification just like the TW ROM.

Fast Charge by Matthew Winters.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
So I looked into all this and tried it. First of all, like I expected, on Touchwiz that fast charge app doesnt work neither. It would make no sense if it would work on TW and not on CM because, again, we're using the same kernel (just with some custom mods). So then what exactly do these apps do ? Again, like I said, this has nothing to do with the fast charge as we know for the Note 4 (that only works in comination with our fast charger). This ONLY has to do with USB charging ! What happens here is that a kernel detects whether it's connected via USB or via a charger and then either asks for 500 mA in case of USB or for more in case of a charger. So what this mod does is, when enabled, process USB as a wall connector charger ! So it will ask for higher current. So a kernel that supports 'fast charging' can ask an *USB* connection for more power. If the USB connected device, like a computer or car radio, can really supply that, that's up to the device. It might very well damage the device for example. And the USB connection will most likely go down.

and here one can see what it exactly does from a code perspective: https://github.com/jawz101/android_kernel_thunderc/commit/280184f9062d8dc9ea149bf99f455ba71fda9809

So again, this has NOTHING to do with our fast charging wall adapter, that WILL work out of the box on CM12 !!

[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] sjgore:
Hi gekkehenkie, you mentioned a few posts back that the CM12.1 kernel is Samsung's kernel with a few modifications. I may possibly be talking complete nonsense, but I had a thought that using the modem and bootloader versions that matched the kernel version may fix issues such as this? Do you know which Samsung firmware the kernel is from?
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
The current kernel is BOB4. It might indeed be worth giving it a shot to get the modem and/or bootloader on BOB4 too and see if that fixes your 4G problems. I'm on BOB4 modem myself and I have no problems but again, I use 3G not 4G, that might make a difference.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
I just tested it, you're right ! That's odd, it always used to work on CM12.0. Anybody who knows which was the last version this worked ? Did it ever work on 12.1 or is this something that never worked on 12.1 ?

*EDIT* I just checked it work on the 29th april nightly ... So I'm starting to think it's because of our FB messenger fix :( will look into this.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] sjgore:
It's certainly worth a shot. I've only been getting the issue every couple of days so it may take a while to confirm whether BOB4 fixes it.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Mussels84:
it certainly sounds possible, samsung have really locked down to requiring the various parts to be matching in lollipop.

curious to find out how it goes. sadly i'm using the rom on a spare SIM card i dont have activated right now, so i cant help with the testing.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] SleemLDJ:
This might be what is causing the data seizure issues. Is BOB4 the latest modem if I may ask. Or kernel. I don't know how I'll be able to downgrade baseband and bootloader back to BOB4....
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] sjgore:
BOB4 is relatively old. BOC3 was next, and BOC4 is the latest. Confusingly, BOC5 is the latest bootloader, as the version numbers don't always match the modems.

You can swap between different modems and bootloader very easily (up and down version numbers) using ODIN. You can find the separate files in most ROM threads, there's no need to flash whole firmwares.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] nico84:
Thank you. :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] 3473:
Is this the correct full process to upgrade my modem and bootloader to boc5?

Make cm12.1 backup in twrp

Install boc5 stock rom using Odin

Reinstall Twrp recovery using odin

Restore the cm12.1 backup in twrp

newbie here, kind of lost, not sure where i went wrong

1) i rooted phone and understand how to boot into TWRP, got supersu installed, phone is a galaxy 4.4.4 tmobile and works fine in rooted mode now

2) downloaded v19 of firekat

3) when i boot into TWRP and choose install, then choose firekat, it does not install give me a file error (checked md5 of file its good).

instructions talk about loading this firekat with safestrap? what is that? where did i go wrong.

Can the kernel being a BOB4 and my bootloader and modem being BOC4 and 5 be a reason for my device severely heating up while charging it?
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] ajadcock:
firstly thanks to gekkehenkie and co. for all their work here :)

I'm still using the nk4 modem and BL ( I think from kitkat days?) as when I upgraded to the latest versions battery life dropped noticeably, and i also noticed an increase in temps during use and also while charging.

Also I haven't had any issues with 4g/3g or to be honest any kind of data related issues all with this nk4 combo.

don't know if that helps anybody :)

its certainly worth a punt if those issues are dealbreakers for those wishing to use cm as a daily.

[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
What exactly 'sucks' about it ? You do realize you're basically saying "Samsung's kernel sucks" (cause that's what we're using). Anyway it's the best way to piss any (unpaid) developer off: making some comment 'this sucks that sucks' without elaborating and most probably without even knowing what you're talking about. At times I wonder what I'm even doing here on this forum. I like building this ROM but giving support to people like you, without getting paid for it, that actually *sucks*.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Mussels84:
I've seen that sentiment echoe'd by a lot of devs on this forum. Doesn't take much to ruin your motivation to do the work.

Simply add people like that to a block/ignore list, and focus on people who give detailed feedback. You're doing a good job, continue as you are and ignore the few troublemakers along the way.

edit: and in this case it was miscommunication and an apology was made. yay, cookies for everyone.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] finallau:

For s-Pen: http://xdaforums.com/android/software/app-app-samsung-devices-provided-stylus-t3000448
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
* Quick charge, if you're talking about the fast wall charger: that DOES work. if you talk about letting the kernel ask for more than 500 mA on an *USB* connection: that doesnt work on Touchwiz kernel neither and for a good reason. It can very well damage your equipment, so no way Samsung would allow that.

* S-Pen: that works 100%

* Fingerprint: kernel side works 100%, it's just not merged into the AOSP code. But you were talking kernel here. As soon as somebody pushes Fingerprint code onto AOSP, it will work right away, cause the kernel already supports it !

So none of your points is valid. Yet you say the kernel 'sucks'. That's what I mean, you throw in some strong insults while you don't even understand what you're talking about. And yes, THAT pisses developers off ...
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] finallau:
Do you understand why i need toggle function? Its not bout whether the function is already working. I need a function to turn off quick charge and s pen. Quick charge is causing my phone to overheat so bad and it can ruin battery life drastically over time and i had to turn off my phone whenever charging it. And if s pen is already working by default, then im sure its not conserving battery because there is some sought of magnetic function or something is being turned on all the time

There is a few problems im having:

Sliding across the notification bar to lower/increase brightness is a bit sluggish (doesn't always respond) and it should be able to do it even from the lock-screen

The audio bar is not fading away at all times when you lower/increase it via volume buttons on the side

When expanding the audio window to increase/decrease the ringtone/ notification tone it fades away as soon as i try to change the slider of it but not always and it fades away way to soon after i changed a value so i can't change another during the same period cause i need to reopen it again...

When separating the notification tone with the ringtone the notification volume sometime resets to value 0.

The HW buttons doesn't light down when full-screening YouTube video which they should after 5 sec of not interacting with the phone.

The Music Flow app from LG crashes at start never got it working.
