[MENTION=4107827]TEKHD[/MENTION] Are you still going to post the complete how to on this?

There are a few people including myself that have been really eager to learn this.

T-Mobile has been without tethering for some time. It seems you are the only Dev that knows how to get it to properly work.

I found your older tethering thread which I assume is an old method that does not work anymore.

I was hoping you could update that thread with the new method so everyone can benefit.

Thanks in advance!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] HunnyBearLewis:
Apparently Ovrdrive has a tethering mod for his N4 rom as of late. I'd be interested to know how either functions but at the same time not sure if that'd be good to spill the beans. Maybe the devs should just share among themselves in pm so the boys at teemobul don't block it. Idk just thinking out loud through text lol.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
+1

I thought of that too...

However there is also an app that works too. I would just rather native tethering instead.

Im sure if Tmobile wanted to find out the answer that I am looking for they could pay someone to find it in the ROMs easy too.

Or by reverse engineering the app in the playstore. ROMs and even apps are open by nature.

Thanks for the reply! :D

Worth the donation and much more!

It's been just over a week and I know $10.00 isn't much but at least its something (the struggle is real)! Also, this is the first time I've donated to a ROM. (I would donate more now if I could and will donate more later when I can).

After the first few days, I started to feel guilty for using this awesome ROM and not donating but I wanted to make sure that it would work with all my apps / configuration needs.

Thank you again for providing us with such a SOLID and feature packed ROM!

1 questions.. is rom contains all languages specially bahasa indonesia ?

Yes I see that.... His post clearly stated exactly what you said so I fail to see the purpose of your post...

I figured since it was 3 months since his post that a reasonable amount of time has passed to follow up to see if he was still going to do this.

I thought as others have thought; That perhaps he changed his mind on the matter of releasing the how to since he might be one of the only ones that knows how to do it on T-Mobile. If that is the case this follow up would give him the chance to tell us that he doesn't want to do the How to. I'm not the only one that was waiting for this "How to".

Its all about communication man. That's what "forums" are for after all. :)

My note 4 is on the way so I will need it also, I hope he keeps up and hasn't moved on
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Chr0nicDreamz:
Yup, just went to fly and experienced the same thing, not happy about it, may have to dual boot just to fly. it worked great in the beta version
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PapaMag:
TEKHD is getting or has received the S7 Edge but it doesn't mean he won't continue support for the N4. We'll have to see but I would bet he will be spending a lot of his time with his new device getting things tweaked, rooted, and customized. I hope to join him in this venture soon myself.

Where are the sound settings in this rom?

Hello everyone,

I've been on this rom for many many versions. I am now on my third Note 4 (I keep breaking them). Just got the refurbished one from insurance company today. It's a 910T that had DOK2 on it stock. I did TWRP > Backup stock > Wipe All > Flash URv7 > Flash Emotion R23 > Wipe Dalvik > Boot > Install Kernel Adiutor/Senthil's Profiles. I'm running on the "Emotion Battery" profile.

Rom is running fine. However, the only thing I noticed this time is the sound is a lot quieter! I literally have the phone setup the exact same as I did the last Note 4, Rom Version, kernel profiles and everything. I have Dolby/Viper/and Beats all turned off (I prefer this).

On the old phone, I used to have to use Viper to turn DOWN the gain because it was too loud. Now, the phone is not loud enough. I'm trying to figure out if it's a software problem or hardware (because it's refurbished).

Where is the actual file in this ROM for the audio gain settings? I want to play with them myself and see if I can get it right. Also, changing things in the "Sound" section of Kernel Adiutor does nothing. Could it be the profiles?

I am an audiophile and a musician for 15 years and this is driving me nuts. When the phone is at full volume, it sounds like it's being limited and the music sounds "crushed". I believe only people with a really good ear can notice this. What I would like to accomplish, with a little help from the community, is an even more perfect sounding audio on this phone. I believe this is possible by having an actual audiophile (myself) tweak the gain settings in the system file until it's perfect.

So my question is:

1. Where is the file

2. Do the Kernel Adiutor settings for sound mean anything on the Note 4?

Thanks for your reply.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Neimad649:
I understand your points but its probably not a top priority for him. I guess porting all the note 5 features to this rom and other things got in the way of that and he never had the time to do it yet.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
Actually I found that he posted the method on the Note 5 thread. He just never made a thread for it or posted it here. Going to test it on my wife's stock deodexed rom. :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lemonade747:
How to remove wifi calling icon in the dialer? Since I have never used it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AlexanderBlaQ:
I would suggest try using viper as it works on the kernel level for audio open it and click the three dots in top right go to UI settings and check expert...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ewingr:
About to give this a try...

But I've been reading in the most recent posts about how the instructions haven't been completely updated (certainly, a challenge to keep docs updated).

So, I do have one question at this point in time: In the op page, it says:

But the title of the tread specifically says the ROM is based on DOK2. So, the question is, is it OK to use COG2? Or is that an outdated instruction? I don't know the difference between them, but have read that if you move to DOK2 that you can't go back, so I'm wantint to stay on COG2, for now.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AlexanderBlaQ:
The difference between the two is that dok2 fixes minor issues that were present on the other ver. Like the Fingerprint bug issues among others... But you can still use cog2 or cod6 with teks roms.. But if you have problems flashing to dok2 2 could potentially fix them... (also you can do a partial update by flashing just dok2 baseband and modem... A thread search should help you find links to the files you need)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Neimad649:
Actually it's not based on DOK2. I think this rom is based on DOG1. I'm still on COD6. You can use the rom with whatever baseband you have. You are right about DOK2. If you upgrade to it, you can't go back.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ewingr:
Thanks, and also to the above poster.

Maybe I impose too much importance on accurate documentation. I'm really surprised it is not based on DOK2, when that is bracketed in the title. Of course, maybe that only means it will run on it.

On the apparently controversial topic of discussion of kernels...given that this ROM does not come with a kernel, maybe this sounds backwards, but it would them seem more important to hear the discussions on kernels. On the other hand, if it came with a kernel, then I could see discussions of different kernels then being unnecessary. Just my opinion, I'm sure different from others :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] free4flight:
For sake of discussion...my note 4 came with COG2, bought it about a year before a friend of mine, and his phone he bought within the past couple months came with DOK2. That being said, it seems to me that if T-Mobile/Samsung are using the newer DOK2 then there must be a reason for that. In other words, they have moved on from COG2. Things being what they are, always movement ahead and never going back... I don't see the need to go backwards from DOK2, what would be the point? The coming Roms, Basebands, Modems, the newer phones are all going to be newer versions as things progress, improve and develop. Look at Android OS... Kitkat to Lollipop to Marshmallow... things project forward and in order to keep up, we should move forward as well. My 2 cents...

And from the OP "TEKXodus N4 5.1.1 URv7 N5R9 (USA-N910T /T3) THIS ROM IS BASED ON NOTE 4 DOK2 WITH SOME NOTE 5 / NOTE EDGE / S6 / S6 EDGE+ MODIFICATIONS" ... it appears that this Rom IS based on Note 4 DOK2
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
He's is correct. The reason the title of the rom says "Hybrid" is because it is a hybrid of several roms from various devices.

The ROM started with DOG1 so I would say it was initially "Based" on DOG1.

There are several things that point to this not being a true DOK2 rebase.

Aside from the known things that point to it not being a DOK2 rebase, TEK has said a couple times that he was not going to rebase the ROM.

With that said it doesn't seem to matter unless you are looking for something that was fixed in the DOK2 base that still exists in this ROM.

Tried your steps but I still get the fc after 30% battery. Somehow it only happens when I open social media app or Google Chrome
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AlbGol:
Cog2 or dok2 or whatever. Rom works perfectly. The beauty of this rom is that u can be on any baseband and the rom works 100% for me. Don't know and don't care what issues few people might have, for me is stable , fast and an efficient rom. All features work 100% never had any issues. few people that have posted something is wrong has to be user error, as most have reported flawless experience :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lemonade747:
So if on emotion kernel, I dont use dt2w, how good is it compared to the beastmode kernel? (battery drains when phone idles and in web browsing, call, sms?)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] left2swiss:
I'm on SM-N910W8 (Canadian) and followed everything and if I install the rom it keeps going through boot loop (Note 4 logo) or if I flash the Bioshock kernel after the rom, it gets stuck at the Note 4 logo for 10-15 mins before boot looping.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] psycho4us4:
Please install rom and beastmode kernel, ael, or emotion latest. And rom will boot. I believe bioshock won't work with this firmware version.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] punk4596:
Maybe try doing another clean flash followed by flashing AEL 9, Emotion kernel 23r2+, or the beastmode kernel right after. You shouldn't have any problems then and if your phone still isn't booting your gonna have to odin back to stock firmware and then install this rom again.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] seraphyz:
battery life wise i think emotion is the worst, for me beastmode is first then ael just in that aspect
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lazer9:
Just curious. Are you on Zerolemon battery or stock?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] carmona_sc:
I'm in stock. Actually I went back to dok 2 without tweaks or root and it's the same issue. It turns off when reaching 30%. The apps causing this are both snapchat, Internet browser, chrome, and YouTube from what I noticed.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lazer9:
Not sure what to suggest. How old is your battery? Might be time to replace. Just be careful if shopping for on Ebay - don't want stuck with a knockoff.

Personally, I finally bit the bullet and got the Zerolemon with case/beltclip combo. I used to make fun of it. I can honestly tell you, now that I have it there is no looking back. Yes it does add considerable size and weight. With that said, as others have mentioned, it seems to make the Note 4 actually more comfortable to hold.

And of course the best: example, streaming Pandora 8+ hrs BT connected at work to both Gear 1 & JBL headphones. Texting, tapatalk, ect... = my AVG day with dtw on also gets 9+ hrs screen time and my battery is still 60%-75% remaining.

Just a thought.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] carmona_sc:
Almost a year! Your probably right. I'll look at zero lemon baterry, the only issue is that I work at a ranch so I'm always on horses. Def a bulky phone won't work [emoji14] thank you for your help!

Please help!

Hi Guys,

Can someone please help me with these questions? Thank you!

I have a 910T3 running on COG2 with TEKXodus URv3. I want to upgrade to the latest version which requires DOK2 firmware.

Couple of questions:

1. Can someone point me to the Stock Odin file for a 910T3? And then the stock Odin file for DOK2? I heard we should Odin back to stock before going to TEKXodus for the best results. Is this true?

2. If Odining to stock first is a non-factor, can someone tell me where to get the best file to either Odin or TWRP to DOK2 from COG2, to get ready for the latest TEKXodus version?

3. Is it true that once I move to DOK2, I can never come back to a KK version of the 910T3 model?

4. Is it true that DOK2 can only be Systemless rooted and not fully rooted? If so, what is the limitation of a systemless Root? Is it not having Xposed?

5. Finally, I read somewhere in this thread that you can "Knock on" the screen on this ROM with certain Kernels. Can someone confirm which kernels (name/version) and governor settings are allowing us to do this?

Thanks and I appreciate any help from you in advance!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] BACK2BEAN:
I am on DOK2 with systemless root and I put Xposed on my rom. Just have to youtube or google how to do it. I have heard systemless root will be the new way of rooting come MM. Im very new to the new root system just a few things I have heard.

Hello, I have 910T running [ROM][5.1.1][DOK2]N5 Express 3.4D[Feb-21-16][N910T][N910W8][N910T3]. I am wanting to flash this rom but there is so much info on the first page it is a bit overwhelming for a not so experienced flasher as myself. I just want this rom put on my phone, I am DOK2 5.1.1 (Kernel 3.10.40-Beastmode) I have never flashed a kernel before so i am unaware of the process (rom or kernel first) and I am not fully sure what file for the rom to get from the OP. Can anyone help guide me? Thanks
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AlexanderBlaQ:
Ya go to Sammobile. Com you will find the official download for dok2

Use that in Odin to update your phone to dok2

Yes it is true once you up date to dok2 you can not downgrade (why would you want to tho)

I don't know anything about systemless root can't help you there

But I have exposed on my phone ND not having any issues...

Lastly

Yes you can you send dt2w function on emotion r23 you must download the modified version of kernel auditor (the playstore ver. Dosent not work on our devices properly) the option to enable it is there but it is murder on battery had my phone staying awake for 5hours (it's Lay's waiting for you to use it... Great feature but I wouldn't suggest it)

ALSO keep in mind there are people on cog2..Running his latest rom I'm on full dok2 but just am FYI
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] left2swiss:
I'm on SM N910W8, flashed beastmode and it worked and all is good, but I wasn't getting the network/signal. so i flashed the *Canada Data Fix* zip but no luck, it keeps connecting and disconnecting and sim is not detected.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Some_dude36:
what do you good folks recommend for a kernel ?

[MENTION=4697226]BACK2BEAN[/MENTION] and [MENTION=6730813]AlexanderBlaQ[/MENTION] - Thank you so much guys for responding! I think I am clear on how to get the DOK2 Firmware, Odin it, Install TWRP and then I guess this TekXodus ROM will be rooted.

I am a little hesitant on going to DOK2 with no way to rollback. This is because while I have never seen a battery SOT beyond 3.5 hours on my Tek ROM and COG2 firmware, and am nowhere NEAR the SOT of 7 hours or 5 hours that people quote, I am in fact very happy with the stability and performance of my current set up. I do want to update because of all the fun N5 and S6/7 stuff in the latest ROMs. Can someone running COG2 modem/baseband here with the latest DOK2 confirm how their performance/battery life is coming up?

As for the systemless Root, this is where I must confess I am confused. Seems like DOK2 can ONLY be systemless rooted? While that may allow us to run Android Pay (possibly patched now), I am concerned that Xposed won't work? Is this true? How could Xposed work since it modifies System?

[MENTION=6730813]AlexanderBlaQ[/MENTION] - I appreciate your advice and pointers on DoubleTap2Wake, and understand it. Maybe I'll refrain from it after all. Sounds like it keeps something active and running all the time on N4, unlike LG G Series, ZenFone2 and etc?

Thank you again guys, appreciate any further clarification here.

P.S. If moved to DOK2, I assume a Full Nandroid restore from my COG2 will NOT work, right? Thanks!

Do you have a hotspot plan and unlimited data with Tmobile? I have tried it and it doesn't work. I have had to use wifi tether router then it stopped working and now I use Foxifi which works flawlessly but have to use usb mode. Are you in usb mode or you just turn on your native mobile hotspot in settings?

I have unlimited everything but am only allowed 7gb of hotspot wich comes with the unlimited everything family plan before they throttle me to 128kb wich has never happened been running this rom for months and use hotspot threw settings on the rom
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] HunnyBearLewis:
Switching to lte only, is that necessary to help hide the usage or a preference for speed? I'd like to receive calls if they come in but if it's necessary then lte it is.

So when you hit your 7gb mark, you never received a notification form tmobile that you have reached your limit and will be idled down? Also, where are you seeing the hotpot through settings? I am not finding that...tia
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Santos89:
I believe it's through the "my T-Mobile account" app as that's where it shows hot-spot usage. Just tried it with lte only and streamed 1080p video to see if it still counts hot-spot data and it still does. So I ask the same question you are asking, once it reaches 7gb does it still work at same speed or does it get throttled... Or does yours not show it getting counted towards hot-spot data?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Neimad649:
He never hit the 7gb limit.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rblckmnjr84:
With mine it seems as tho tethering it uses my mobile data then sometimes it uses tethering data

And also how are yall turning on LTE only and does tht help with the tethering as far as counting toward mobile data
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] free4flight:
His original post shows him at 190gb for the month and 135 gb on hotspot... check his attachment. #18337
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Neimad649:
I think it is just the app, not his actual hotspot data. I have 5.12gb on the app and my hotspot data is 264mb out of 7gb.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] sqmala4321:
OK to answer a few questions if I don't go on lte only yes I receive a text saying I will be throttled on my hotspot and it will only give me speeds of 128kb if I tether on lte only I never receive any message from tmobile..I'm using hotspot in settings on my phone not threw any app any app at all
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
When I use tethering through this rom my hotpot data doesn't go up.

Your normal phone data should only go up. If your hotpot data is going up then perhaps there is a problem.

Also on another note...

I have been recently using WiFi tether router and it's bee working as well.

I download 500MB test files and the new Tmobile account app refreshes almost real time.

Something else to consider Tmobile has different ways of identifying tethering.

So for example perhaps many people that say it's working fine are tethering to WiFi tablets. I have heard that tethering to consoles like xbone and PS4 are more easily seen by Tmo. This could be the same with laptops. I am going to test with some computers and consoles yo see what happens.

However not sure why anyone with tether to a console. I guess unless you were in a hotel and had a really low speed. LTE maybe fast but it's not stable and I imagine would cause weird lag in games.
