My coffee gets hot too lol...

This phone only gets hot if something cpu intensive is done. The battery is better than ever now. Only 2% overnight, definitely doesn't get hot while normally used. If it gets hot then 1 reinstall with the right bootloader and modem may fix that. The finger pring scanner is not a feature that is so needed to disappoint people. Right now the ROM works really well except the 4k support but I'm sure this may get fixed soon so its ok

no, if I have the proximity wake up hand waving I noticed it crashed couple times, I live in Oz, by the time I did it it was close to 11 pm, I did not have much time to test it before hitting the sack, I will have to adjust the dim settings when it wakes up as well I have it currently at 2, will need to change it to 10, here is my git if you want to have a look:

I'm really busy with the camera myself. But if you can get it going correctly, let me know and I'll have it merged.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Barracuda77777:
will do, no problems :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] ContextM:
If the camera gets fixed, does this mean it will be better for users with snap camera too? It would also be good to add support for picture quality and to select storage location to prevent straining the internal memory

Anyone can help on the above issue?

As of 17th July 15 build, is there any file that we have to flash manually (boot/mpdecision file)?
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] nadejo:
There is a New game called albion. Its a mmorpg with amazing graphics. Actually the client can only be downloaded on the official Website. The apk is about 477 MB and it fails while installing. Then the phone shows package acces helper force closed and the phone freezes. So i have to force reboot. I did a clean install of the latest nightly. Could you please fix this issue. I really Like to play this game. THX :)

Edit : i've managed to install it with a glitch(moving the apk to data/data and reboot :) )

Hope someone fixes this issue

Is there a way to set silent + vibrate mode because my phone does not vibrate when receiving a call in silent/priority mode?

I have already enabled Also Vibrate for Calls' in both Settings and Phone panel

how many points you have with the current CM12 Antutu benchmarks? I only 45000

[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
Stock TW gets hotter than CM12, due to a bit less throttling, hence a bit more performance but also more heat.

Increase the intellithermal throttle temperature with Faux clock to for example 100C and you'll score over 50k. Dont put it much higher though, device will start to crash if you put it to the max (due to overheating).

Also of course, never start the Antuntu test when the device is hot already. For fair comparison, in any circumstance start the test with a cooled off device (to show the importance of this: go to Touchwiz, record 2 minutes of UHD/4k video and then immediately start the test, you'll score about 26k in Touchwiz). So comparing tests makes only sense when you start the test with the same temperature.

But yeah with the current intellithermal throttle settings you should score about 45k in Antutu. Higher score would mean hotter device and I must say I really like it how it is. But not everyone is the same, hence it's totally tweakable to your likings with Faux Clock (if I have time one day I'll probably write my own app to change the settings, it's really easy but I'm really tied up in all the other stuff)

Is there any mod for the low light camera quaility problem?
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] ChemoNL:
The guy is working on it. Relax
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] than33:
I've made an experiment:

I was thinking that I will check how battery and CPU works after disabling mpdecision completely. I did this by renaming mpdecision binary. After reset ther is no mpdecision option at all. I was thinking that in that way only governor will change frequencies, but it's not! Something is definitely making a totall mess with frequencies. I now see a lot of sticking frequencies at random cores and steps! It looks like there is another mpdecision like manager and that it works pretty awful!

EDIT: This was other kernel.

OK. I made this on CM 12.1 kernel and now it works pretty well. I wonder how it will work on battery... For now it looks like governor is using 4 cores more effectively and it almost always uses frequencies below 1.7ghz. That should be good on battery usage....
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
Working on it, but I'm actually stuck for the last 2 days. I need someone who is good at JAVA (I'm good at C++, JAVA I dont know too much about, just the basics). I already asked the snap camera guy if he could help. But maybe there's someone here who knows his JAVA, then I guess it shouldnt be too hard. The problem I'm facing is described here Basically I want to call that sendVendorCommand from within the CM12 stock cam app, but I dont know how to do that. Been really trying tons of stuff the last few days but unsuccesful so far ... And again, it should be relatively easy for someone who's good at JAVA.

Anyway hopefully someone with JAVA expertise can help out. If not, I'll move onto the mpdecision issue.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
Problem with that approach though is that mpdecision is needed for performance. Without mpdecision I can't get past 46k score on Antuntu. And all 4 cores will be always on so this wont be the most battery saving solution neither. No I need to figure out what's going on with mpdecision exactly ...
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
So I went back to messing with mpdecision and just tried an idea that I had while working on the camera. I just tried it, I set the temp throttle in faux clock to 100 and ran Antutu, scored the usual 50k. But more interesting: no more stuck CPU freq :) So it seems to fix the problem ! However since this is quite experimental, I'll wait a few days before merging it. I hope people can try it and can give me feedback. Obviously I havent had time yet to test for batterylife but it should be better.

Download my experimental kernel: https://mega.co.nz/#!jUZDjD5Q!tRQ5mv0x3Xw-VpPZe6UmTVGHDZEqm44A-Wfp4KCjQk0

Flash with flashify. Of course remember that if you flash another kernel like Vision or if you flash a new nightly, you will overwite this kernel and fix.

Let me know how this works for you guys !
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
I just cooled down the device a bit in the freezer for a minute, then ran the test, scored 53k on Antutu (keep in mind, again, that you'll need to change the temp throttle with faux clock to obtain those results and that your device will obviously get hotter this way). So performance is top notch. But did it increase battery life, that's the question :) And also hoping this wont yield and unexpected results like system crashes. So not cheering too soon yet but I am optimistic :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Hawklan_D:
Are you getting a frozen direction arrow or none at all?

I get no arrow at all just the blue location dot. I can see my magnetometer works on skymaps and GPS status. I tried a full wipe and install of latest nightly with open gapps pico and then maps from the play store, but same result.

No big deal for me but would like to solve it if possible. Not sure what to try next...anyone have any suggestions?
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
[MENTION=4193974]Barracuda77777[/MENTION] did you try the kernel I just posted ? I have my brightness at about 50% , using wifi and reading the news using Chrome. I dont touch the screen too often, mostly just read the news pages (so read a page, then touch, scroll etc) ... And I'm doing that now for 18 minutes and battery hasnt even dropped 2% :) WTF :) Either my battery gauge is messed up or the fix is rather brilliant :) Please tell me you're seeing the same results :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Barracuda77777:
I am sorry I downloaded but I am in hurry for an appointment, will install as soon as I can and let you know, battery for me is more important than performance the way I use my phone, thank you for all the hard work you are doing, by the way I cherry picked fixes for the move to SD card that were reverted for causing issues, I have not had any issues myself "yet" and apps moved to SD card are working with no issues, also the gesture to wake up seems to be working now as well and the service is not crashing anymore. will let you know soon on the kernel. cheers
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
Sure, give it a try when you have time. I'm excited though, seems like I just hit the jackpot here, outperforming Touchwiz by quite a bit regarding battery usage. But we'll see, sometimes the battery gauge is a bit messed, so the results actually might not be as great as they seem right now (also put my device in the freezer for the Antutu test, this might have screwed up the battery gauge too, not sure). Anyway, hoping on some feedback from others.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] than33:
Mpdecision is well known for messing with antutu scores. It does however not give you faster performance. It makes antutu scores by tricks.

I've got 46000 in antutu without mpdecision. And that is true value for that CPU.

Anyway interactive governor puts cores to idle almost all the time so it is actually working quite well. Plus I've got much better battery time when turned off.

I will test this tomorrow for whole day.

And the most important: no more micro stuttering! System is smooth now! Even in chrome I feel much smoother scrolling.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
It actually does. Mpdecision doesnt just do CPU hotplugging, it manages CPU policy too. I think that when it plugs one CPU out for example it initially sets a higher CPU policy for the other cores. That's why you'll see a higher score in Antutu.

Anyway, try the kernel I just posted on the previous page, it seems to work brilliantly ! 50k score in Antutu (of course only when you increase the temp throttle) combined with awesome battery life. Of course you need to put mpdecision back.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] alfredlee:
I'm getting no arrow at all, just a blue location dot.

Tried everything I could (including what you did) but it still doesn't work.

Contemplating whether to return to touchwiz/tw-based roms despite being really happy with this rom. :crying:

You are working on stuff that is much more important than the MDNIE Brightness widget.

If you are happy to send me the source code for it I'd love to make it support widgets and actions.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
And more good news, thanks to [MENTION=3041959]fattire[/MENTION] I can now send the Vendor Commands I need with the camera app :) So next few days I'll be messing around with that again, hopefully will be able to implement the lowlight mode into the stock cam app correctly :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Barracuda77777:
this is indeed great news! I for the kernel, I could say it's better, it's amazing how you bettered which was great to begin with, thank you
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] ROBSONMEG:
installed new boot. img and my bench mark score was worse than before I Installed it. score on lastet night over 48000 score on new boot. img 46000
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] :
so the issue of CPU freq getting stuck and going all over the place on our CM12 kernel was that the throttle temps were too low? does it work the same as on TW now?

I've gone back to TW since posting here about two weeks ago bc it was a bit cooler(it doesn't get hot after 10min of reading in news websites on chrome for example).

could you try opening chrome and keeping the screen on with 30-50% brightness and see if after 10 min the phone is still not hot like it used to be? I'm missing CM;)
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] cyanofreak:
2 weeks ago I had with CM12 52k in AnTuTu.

and now 45k
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Barracuda77777:
without antutu, do you notice the device slower when you use it?
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] cyanofreak:
No, I notice no difference in speed
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Barracuda77777:
so then :), take antutu scores with a grain of salt, it's user experience, & battery life what matters. :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] cyanofreak:
Yes You're right. thanks:)
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] ContextM:
I just got all my photos and pictures deleted from my SD card and my internal one yesterday, wtf please can someone tell me what could have happened? I didn't delete anything, and files that are on the internal and external card - not in a folder got deleted too. I suspect this must be an app, or a bug on the cyanogen mod?? I never experienced this before, the 1st time ever but noticed that only jpg and png files were deleted, something must have targeted them. I don't have any unusual apps. I do have lucky patcher on there and all the usual apps like facebook. Could this be a virus? Or a backdoor that someone exploited? Or a CM bug?
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
Then either you didnt increase the throttle temperature or you didnt let the device cool off to room temperture before starting Antutu, like I explained, am I right ? :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
Ok I merged my kernel CPU frequency fix already, should be in todays nightly ! I been testing it a while and although the change isn't as dramatic as it seemed in the first place (I think my gauge was messed up cause I put it in the freezer a minute, lol), battery usage actually is better and performance is perfect, scoring about 49k-50k in Antutu, exactly like I score in touchwiz (although, again, one needs to increase temp throttle otherwise the device will stay below 68 degrees C while Touchwiz will reach 74 degrees C during Antutu test (the gaming part) and thus will perform better).

But like [MENTION=4193974]Barracuda77777[/MENTION] noted above, Antutu is just a number, it's all about user experience: responsiveness/lag of the system while doing your everyday's work on the device.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Li-Pol:
So no need to flash mpdecisionhacked.zip and boot.img from next nightly?
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
Nope, no need to flash anything at this moment but just the next nightly :)

Been testing the battery some more, like said before, the change isn't that dramatic as I had hoped, but at least the CPU freq doesnt get stuck anymore.

Anyway this concludes the work on mpdecision, going to work on the camera again as of now, for the next few days.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] soundstorm27:
And it is the same cpu mod on the next nightly what you have posted yesterday?
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
Yes. Also included another IO scheduler, fiops, it was pushed by CM today so I'm pushing it too to our kernel.

*EDIT* I just reverted the fiops IO scheduler, it broke our build.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] nadejo:
Hope package acces helper is fixed :/. It crashes while installing Albion online (477mb apk) however moving the apk to data/app and reboot installs it without any issues. Trust me there something wrong with the installer.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] StuttgartKiwi:
Thanks for all the work you've done on this temperature stuff [MENTION=3296134]gekkehenkie11[/MENTION] - much appreciated!

Just so I understand correctly: with the next nightly, CPU throttling will be enabled by default in the kernel?

If I want to disable the throttling, or adjust it, do I have to use the Faux clock app, or is there some other way?

Incidentally I haven't had any issue with my own Note 4 overheating since I got it about a month ago - but maybe that's coz you were already throttling the CPU in your nightlies since then anyway? I'm not sure. Maybe I'm just a light user! In any case I'd like to be able to turn it off or adjust it as needed if possible - I'm just not entirely sure how. :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
CPU throttling has been enabled for a while now. With Faux clock you can change the parameters, but I think I will write a small app for it. But busy with the cam now ...
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] SenatorDC:
I haven't installed the new nightly but flashed the kernel you posted on mega at the end of last week. It has improved my phones battery life by a leap. Thank you !

[MENTION=3296134]gekkehenkie11[/MENTION]

so, the gesture feature is working flawlessly, also move to SD is working if it something that you want to add to the rom, the patch for move to SD card was reverted by CM team due to issues with the S5, since cherry picking it to my home build the only thing that I noticed was the icons for the moved i apps was showing the default android icon but the app itself was working fine, I use nova, so I was able to restore the icons to the moved apps and it has not happened since.

so let me know if you are interested, I will point the changes that you have to make to enable gesture wake up and move to external SD.

edit: well move to SD after each restart the icons get lost, so now I see why the cm team reverted the SD fix.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] haryp2309:
What do you mean with gesture wake up? DT2W? That would be awsome!

[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] Barracuda77777:
wave for the device to wake it up, or set it to come on when you pull it from your pocket, its available on the Samsung S5 that's where I cherry picked the commit from, it uses the proximity sensor, I have not noticed any drain on the battery, I really like the feature :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] sergiuvolo:
Hi everyone! I'm on the last build and everything is good. I've noticed that you get more battery life if you came from kitkat. With my use i have almost 2 days now. You should try.

Phone call proximity glitch

I'm having this weird problem where the proximity sensor works fine and turns the screen off during calls but at the same time doesn't disable the touch panel. The screen will be black but I am still able to push buttons on the screen. First day I noticed this it kept hanging up on other people and then I realised that it was my face touching the screen where the end call button is! Is there any known fix for this? Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] haryp2309:
[MENTION=3296134]gekkehenkie11[/MENTION], The rom keeps getting better even if i dont update! This is the best rom! I unplugged the phone from the charger 3hours ago and I just loosed 3%! (Screen off) That means 1% per hour! So I will get around 100 hours screen off time [emoji12] . Any ways just have to say thanks!

PS. What's the short name of "screen off time" ? (If I use the first letters, I will get "SOT"[emoji13] [emoji23] )

[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] :
is it like ambient display or the gravity app? is it working properly? I was using the gravity app for awhile(and it was amazing) but when using the gravity method in the app(and not only the proximity sensors) it keeps the phone awake 24/7 (although the app dev said the drain is minimal as it says on lowest feq, but still won't go into deep sleep to keep those extra sensors up)

btw I really can't figure out why waving to wake the phone won't drain any battery but using the knock feature that all LG G's devices have is impossible to implement properly :(
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:

[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] SnoopBok:
Thank you! I'll try the ROM again, because I love CM :p

I hope battery endurance will be like TW.
[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] gekkehenkie11:
battery endurance is really a difficult thing to compare correctly. So many factors that matter. Screen brightness, background apps, network usage, network signal strength, phone signal strength, hardware features, system settings, number of times you touch the screen just to name a few, can make all the difference. And then there's the battery gauge itself that's not very reliable at all. So I think to really compare it correctly you'd need to take as many variables as possible out of the equation and then test at least several times an hour. Like for example, put the phone into airplane mode, set screen to max brightness and then run a game for 2 hours, both on touchwiz as CM12. Or play a video for two hours. That way you at least have taken things like signal strength and wifi background stuff out of the equation.

In fact, playing a video for 2 hours, with the phone in airplane mode, that might be a very interesting test, might do that later today or tomorrow.

[Galaxy Note 4 Original Android Development] SnoopBok:
You're right, there are a lot of circumstances who can influence the battery endurance. I'm always using autobrightness and things like a sunny or cloudy day, areas with great signal etc. have a bigimpact on battery life.

I love the smoothness and responsivness of this ROM, it's smoothness and responsivness isn't even close to TW. Especially noticable when using the recent apps button.
