Try Next Launcher, It's kinda sick and a slew of free themes for it and tons of options, animations..etc... especially when you get the paid version...:good:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
Since you mention Sammobile, I assume you are talking about downloading the stock COD6 base?

Go to this thread post #2, everything you need is in the one file.

I usually use System App Remover Pro and have best luck if you disable or freeze first, then remove, install new system app version and change permissions. Lollipop has been more of a challenge but give it a whirl. I use Toolbox Pro for movement, permission, all that jazz.

I'm a Nova Prime guy as well, I use Next Launcher for quite a while and really liked it once I finally got things set the way I wanted them. Great choices for themes, good options for Desktop, app drawer, etc. I still found myself back to Nova Prime and a :good: to the new update.

Actually I have the paid version of NL...but it's just too busy for me. I'm a minimalist at heart...as you can see. Plus, I like the screen plain without indicators as to how to operate my phone. Then I can hand someone the phone, and they'll be lost tryna figure it out, not knowing it's tapped or slide based in its operation.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
Yes the link I gave you has all the files you need in the one ZIP so you do not need to download anything from Sammobile. You can use those same instructions to get on the stock COD6 base or just use the files and use TEK's write up as well.

I followed that post when I first Odin'd COD6 so I know everything works perfectly.

eKey

I love the ROM, but I am a real estate agent and we use an app called eKey (by Supra) and for some reason, I get a black screen when I open the app. I tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling it, but nothing. It worked fine on stock and rooted. Is there anything else that I could try? Could it be the Kernel?

Thanks

i have tried that too. still no go. i even tried to reinstall the driver and still no go. im pretty much at a loss.

re: launcher

I have the paid version too and am very happy with it, it has everything anyone

can ask for in a launcher and more. Next Launcher 3D is really a work of art.

(this is why it costs more than 5 bucks) Here is a screen recording of what I mean.

In my humble opinion there is no other launcher that can compare to it.

The screen should not be just black during the boot up process. It does take a while but you should just see a black screen. To confirm, you are on COD6 stock lolipop base when flashing this correct?

The stock kernel is in the OP, just flash it and test your app. The emotion kernel is also there so you can flash it back when you are done if the stock kernel doesn't fix.

Image Quality

So things are a little quit around here. One thing I like about this phone is the camera so I did a little test.

First, this is NOT a this rom is better than that rom thing. This is about the results I got from with the camera on THIS rom vs another that has tons of hype about the camera modifications and how great the pictures are. Before going to LP, I ran the other devs rom and it was great so again, this is nothing negative about the other rom. Seeing the pictures and the comments I had a suspension that the placebo effect was going on. But I wanted to give it a try and see if in fact the pictures were better or not. I went into this just wanting to know and didn't have a bias one way or another.

So I flashed the other rom, and took two pictures. I then restored my nandroid and took the same two pictures with this rom which doesn't claim any camera modifications and from what I can tell, everything concerning the camera and image quality is stock. I wanted the pictures to be a close as possible to identical to have an equal comparison.

I saved the pictures in two separate folders and opened one from each and compared them side by side. I blew them up and tried to see if there was any difference between the two. I honestly didn't remember which was which as I was looking at them so I had no bias as to which one was better than the other. To really be honest, I didn't really see much difference between them but one did seem to have slightly better color than the other. The one that I thought looked just slightly better, I was thinking that it was the one from the other rom. So while I thought there was a placebo effect going on, I thought I actually picked the other roms picture as being a little better. That was until I looked at the image name and realized it was the one taken from THIS rom.

Now overall, I don't think there is a real noticeable difference between the two. The color seems a little better to me on the pictures from this rom, which should be the same as the stock rom vs the other. This could be attributed to a little different light coming through the window as it is a little overcast here or it could be the settings that were made had a negative effect on the images. The one thing that is different is the image size on the disk as the other rom is setting the image qualities to 100 vs the stock compression settings but this is very minor as well.

Here are the four pictures so you can judge for yourself. Your results may vary as well so this is just what my tests on my phone showed. My main point is this phone has a great camera and there is absolutely nothing wrong with the stock settings as this rom uses.

Can you tell the difference between these images?

Based on your nick, I assume you are on Canadian W8, if that is true, you have to flash the romantic and then either stock, ael or bioshock kernel. After booting up on stock kernel, you should be able to use Emotion kernel.

So I've noticed that battery life and sot I'd a bit lower than normal. I don't know if this is because of lollipop or just Samsung new features or what but I've seen sot go from an average of about 6hrs 30 mins to just under 4hrs. While 4hrs is still very usable and lollipop has smoothness like no other it's still hard to loose a third of my sot.

Any ideas as to how this might be improved? I've already done greeny and such, but haven't looked into the possibility of any kernel or other technical tweaks.

re: Dolby Audio

After flashing the Dolby update it made my stock music player have fc's when

opening or trying to open the soundalive settings in the stock music player.

Also the user interface of the updated Dolby app itself looks like someone

started to, or tried to theme it but did not do a very good job of it at all.

So I un-installed the updated version and restored the original Dolby app which [MENTION=4107827]TEKHD[/MENTION] baked

into the TEKXodus v2.9 rom which works perfectly, sounds excellent and looks 100% perfect..

At least not yet or not until the new updated v3.0 version of this rom is ready.

Question, currently I have replacement batteries and I don't seem to be getting the best battery life on my Note 4. Normally I just swap out these batteries as they go low. Now my question is normally people always say you have to let the battery settle and give it at least a full discharge and charge before you start see better results. So if I'm switching out these batteries is it not allowing the battery to really settle? Or does it just not matter?

Also what are you guys kernel setting? [MENTION=4107827]TEKHD[/MENTION]

There is a really nice post some pages back with some information regarding Kernel settings for better battery... At least we can swap batteries... Can you imagine the Note 5 without a removable battery... Bad bad move... I really really really really hope Samsung doesn't kill the Note 5 that way.

You need to Odin stock samsung firmware, (follow guide on my signature...) And finally... Follow the few installation steps posted in OP... (this thread) done...

re: Comparing battery life

My opinion regarding battery life is that there are just way too many

variables to compare your battery life to mine or to anyone else's.

This is why I hardly ever ask or post anything having to do with battery life.

Just by installing different apps, using different amounts & durations of phone calls and

not to forget our different brightness level settings, all of these will effect our battery's life.

Even using different themes effect battery life, for example a very dark or black

theme will increase battery life and a very light or white theme will decrease it.

So don't worry if your not getting the 4-6 hours of screen time like some

other's may be getting which you, me or anyone else may not be getting.

International rom

[MENTION=4107827]TEKHD[/MENTION]

I have a issue which I hope you can give me some guidance on.

My son stopped by with his N910T with stock lollipop COD6 N910T firmware working properly.

He wanted me to flash an international N910F lollipop BOC5 rom which I did and everything went

well, got good signal bars, wifi works fine and the apps in the phone all worked without any fc's.

I setup the APN's and verified that I was connected to the Tmobile 4G/LTE network.

My son's baseband/modem/bootloader is still on stock N910T COD6 lollipop 5.0.1

(I did not odin flash anything)

The only issue I am having with the phone is when making or receiving calls I cannot

hear anyone and they cannot hear me, (no audio after connect) mms works fine.

I can hear the phone ring on incoming but not ringing outgoing thru earpeice.

There is a extra long delay before it connects incoming/outgoing calls, perhaps 10 sec.

The phone itself has audio when playing music and all other audio activities in the phone.

I tried the N910T lollipop COD6 stock kernel, emotion, ael and bioshock kernels

which all worked fine but the phone still had no audio when making/receiving calls.

I even tried flashing the canadian fix which did not help.

What have I missed? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Ok I don't know if it is just me or what but the "TEKXodus_URv3_N4_VLevel_X" zips aren't doing anything for me. The volume is just to load overall and with Dolby and Viper normal raising the volumes on there own, I wanted to lower the volume. I tried the -1 and then the -2 and played the same song with each test. I heard no difference in volume levels. I then when it and adjusted the mixer_paths.xml and dropped the headset to the following to try and make a drastict difference to see if these setting were even doing anything.

<ctl name="HPHL Volume" value="10" />

<ctl name="HPHR Volume" value="10" />

<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="50" />

<ctl name="RX2 Digital Volume" value="50" />

They were at 20 and 84 for stock. I still hear no difference in volume levels.

Is it just me that the "TEKXodus_URv3_N4_VLevel_X" zips aren't changing the volume for? Did the new Dolby update break something?

Restoring my nandroid and test again without the new Dolby update. I don't like the looks of the new version either.
