just depends on whats running, sounds like you have something running in background, GPS always one, or some setting on that eating it, or it could be the battery is dying after all, but I've had mine since day one, over a year and zero issues with it staying charged too so honestly no idea unless I had your device to look a various settings

I know about the basics with battery saving just haven't had any luck even under clocking any suggestions with cpu governor's etc in synapse

I could at least try different kernels till my new batteries arrive Monday would like to at least rule that out first with the rear getting hot under normal Internet browsing no videos or anything cpu intensive
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ramblinman:
Have you tried different kernel settings? With interactive governor I get pretty bad battery life. When I switch to smartmax governor I get at least 50% more battery, noticeable difference.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lazarus0000:
OK OK...

Ive heard a lot of complaining that battery life isn't what many feel it should be and I'm not one to know one way or another....

But...

I've got an 8000mAh battery on this bad boy and, on my old N3, with the 10,000 mAh battery, I routinely, under HEAVY use, got 16+ hours with 40+% left when I'd plug it back in @ night. Now, I know this is a better, higher density screen and the chip set operates @ a higher frequency, with, I believe, more cores as well, but I can't make it through the day without some significant time back on the charger as well. And that's from a clean install with just Gravity Box, Wanam, Bootmanager and Greenify installed through Xposed. In other words, nothing fancy. Kernel is 3.10.40-Beast Mode.

I'm thinking it's got to be the kernel.

I'm totally new to this platform and haven't a clue as to how to get another kernel nor, for that matter, what one to choose.

Anyone got a suggestion? If so, send me the link as well, would ya?

Thanks in advance!

is it safe to flash the v3.2 android 5.1.1 file for my note 4 tmobile that is n910t? Is the rom dog 1 or just based on dog1 ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] risho:
There are two different links for the 910-T3/Canadian Note 4 typcially on DOG1 or if you are like me in the US with tmobile 910-T you would first make sure you are not on COD6 like I was and are on the latest 5.0.1 COG2 firmware then you are able to flash v3.2 after a full wipe after that install dirty flash the small universal file for v3.2.1 and you are done. If you need any more help feel free to PM me ive been down this road more than I like to admit lately but things are looking up finally with battery after finding the right kernel.

Thanks for the help that made the world of difference and I was at 40% batt cant wait to try it out from a full charge. I was worried to try different governors because I remember in my old G2x days certain kernels will only work with certain governors and if you chose wrong a nice boot loop would greet you lol, better to read read read and try once.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kkeith:
Xposed is known to not work properly with lollipop roms unfortunately, and could be part of the cause for poor battery life, I've consistently gotten 4.5hrs all the way to 6hrs sot since I did my update to 5.1.1, this is on a N910w8 with the coi4 baseband and boot loader however. I used to get 3.5hrs to 4 on the rare occasion with 5.0.1
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ramblinman:
location, sync, and blue tooth on all day, used GPS, streamed music and pod casts for hours, Screen on full brightness right and at 2 1/2 hours screen on time (which is below average for me) and I'm using xposed. There's nothing wrong with the battery on my end. If I wanted to milk 7 hours of screen time by diming it down and turning off all the battery drainer's it is possible.

Smartmax and lion heart governor matched with SIO scheduler have been the best for battery that I've found personally. If anyone is having battery issues try switching the kernel to these settings. It's worth a shot.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] melemel:
This might be a stupid question but how do I do the update? I have 5.1.1 URv3 and want to update to the latest. Do I have to reinstall the original rom then the update?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] equlizer:
Just dirty flash the 3.2 or 3.2.1
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] melemel:
How do you dirty flash? I have looked at a few of the pages and I don't see how to do it, maybe I'm blind. I'm a newbie and I don't want to brick my phone.

[MENTION=6019963]ramblinman[/MENTION] what are your exact settings in synapse for those options you mentioned. My battery life on my SM-N910W8 on the latest 5.1.1 TekHd is excellent as is but could always be better!

Also does the performance suffer with your settings?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] adgj533:
im not expert but dirty flash is when u dont wipe ur phone like without a full wipe, so u just go to twrp clear cache and flash the rom file again.

we have all been in ur position, thats why xda is for :P

910T3 - sluggish and fingerprint error

So i just got a new Note4 (old one broke, thanks SquareTrade!). It's a T3... got the ROM installed with URv3.2.1. Everything looks good on the surface, but as i'm using the device, i getting "timeouts"...or a sluggish response to sliding up and down menus or web pages... the system pauses and then "catches up" to what i was doing...like scrolling through the settings menu....it will pause for a second then catch up...same thing when i'm typing...all of a sudden it pauses then catches up...does that make sense?

i've reloaded the rom twice now (wiping x4)...haven't loaded any additional apps....

Also, when i try to run the fingerprinter scanner...i click on "register your fingerprints and I get "An error has occurred with the senor...if the message appears repeatedly, restart your device (which i've done)....still no joy. Ideas?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ala380:
So what do you guys think we can expect from this rom at this point? It's running perfectly on my phone and it has so many amazing modifications such as the note 5 launcher and s pen apps. Can this rom get any better or do you think we are just about at the end of possibilities?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] HAVOK83:
I love this rom but I just can't deal with the random reboots /bootlops , random vibrations, screen and power button unresponsiveness at times. I've always clean flashed even format data every time. Are you guys changing anything in synapse? The only thing I change in there is sound and led brightness.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ala380:
I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing these problems. I, myself, haven't had any of these issues. I haven't changed anything in synapse. Is anyone else having these same problems?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Iz3man:
Battery must be bad..

It went from 70% ish to 0%. Had to pull the battery and pop it back in and now it's at 44%..

Got 2 on order.

I'm on clean tekx 3.2.1.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] equlizer:
Haven't you been saying this for a while now or am i thinking of someone else? I can be one of the many to vouch that there are (shouldn't be) no issues with this rom. It is soo lighting fast. It may be a bit less in the battery department but i will gladly take the snappiness over a slightly better battery life. Sorry to the people who do have issues but there must be another reason. Are you flashing a T instead of a T3 or vise versa maybe?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ArchangelRenzoku:
It's gotta be the kernel. I myself only notice these same problems on emotion 21 and up. Everything was smooth until the fast charging was broken in 20... but honestly changing the charging setting in synapse soft-fixed that. I'm going to try 22r1 tho because 22r5 looks like the troublesome one. If not, I can always go back to 20 and start from there. Not afraid to try 19 even.

Also, see my attachment below and make sure wakeup boost is enabled INSTEAD of the other option. This has been useful to me.

The ROM itself is flawless in my opinion and experience with it. Tek I actually dropped by to thank you for making the multi-tasking button so responsive. It makes me not afraid to merge my Chrome tabs with the windows. And now my Chrome experience is that much better now that the address bar disappears lol. ?✌??
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] veebomb:
Great ROM, thank you very much Tek. Never thought I'd actually get 5.1.1 working on my Rogers W8 model, absolutely flawless!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] faslane:
yeah, might work. You might try a more stock-style rom too just for the fun of it and see if it drains bad still..could be the rom or a setting in the current rom etc. but yeah, a new battery will also tll you. If after a new battery is installed and you still have issue, then something else besides a battery issue is going on. Like I said I've had my batter since day one (when I bought my N4 new) and it's still getting amazing life,some roms better than others. Good luck man. Let us know what you find out after battery swap.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Iz3man:
Thinking of someone else.

I've made one comment about wanting good battery life, but nothing major.

I'm coming from PR with bad battery life, now this.. kinda was the final nail in the coffin , not the roms, bad battery,
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] risho:
I was wondering that myself is the fast charging fixed with the latest ROM? Where in Synapse can I fix the fast charging? Definitely on to something with the kernel now with SmartMax governor going on 7hrs with 2.5SOT and 60%batt left.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ArchangelRenzoku:
There is a screenshot under my last post. And yes fast charging has been fixed since I think Emotion kernel 21 and up.

Sorry I spaced. It's under the battery tab in synapse. Change to enabled with custom and set to 2100. You will need to do this on Emotion Kernel 20 only. It is fixed in 21 and up. But those versions have their own bugs too. I went back to 20 and all is well again.

Never mind i found it from sammmobile download is crazy slow.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Babyexp:
Hi,

1) Have you tried resetting the fuel chip??? It can be done in Synapse at the bottom of battery tab. I tried this and I did not fix for me. Maybe for you though.

2) Quick Start in phone dialer *#0228#* ??? Tried this but haven't run the battery down since.

Forgot to mention... I think the battery needs to be charged to 100% when you perform either operation.

Yeah R20 is far better than the later ones out there. They're still really buggy especially with synapse and horrible battery life. I'll try to get you a link...

here's RC20 V22 not the exact one but better than the newer ones imo...much better battery life, less issues and crashing etc.

I know a few had mentioned the issues with battery life.... And I can also say that battery on tekhd 3.2.1 is not what I thought it would be. When I was on Stockwiz I was getting bout 22hrs & 5 SOT...without no modifications, just rooted. But now I barely get 8hrs of battery life n maybe 2.5 SOT... Nice ROM & I thank Tekhd for all the good work.....just think the battery could've been better than what it is now....will give this ROM a few more days to settled in...if that don't make a difference I will restored back to my Stockwiz!

I downloaded Kernel Tuner (Root) from the Play Store and the only change I made was changing it from Interactive to Conservative.

Check the xday tekhd and follow the instructions, mine is n910t....make sure you the proper files for your model but I think it should works for yours as well.... Just check thoroughly thru the treads

The link I sent you have the 2 small files for the cog2 baseband n bootloader....if you download the cog2 firmware which I believe is bout 1.9GB.....I'm pretty you can just odin the files ( but you would have to root again to install recovery) my method I follow was to orin the 2 files on the link.....then after it finished I boot up in recovery backup with the new baseband cog2...once that done I go to install ( wipe > advance wipe * not your internal storage) then flash tekhd 3.2 let it boot n u good to go

I'm sure you know how to use odin? The guidelines I sent u where to put the 2 files in odin...make sure u used odin 3.9 or higher older version setting is different.... And also the tekhd file u gonna flash has to be the in the internal sd card to flash thru twrp....

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Iz3man:
Hey anyway to change the model back to n910w8?

I can't use it to tap and pay because it's model number is N910T3 and my banking app didn't "clear" that model as secure to use.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] faslane:
You can use build.pro but its not the model cause it, its because its rooted. There's a couple workarounds but nothing that sticks permanently. As soon as the phone detect that its rooted again Android pay breaks so until someone releases an app that allows Android pay with rooted devices we are all in the same boat I'm afraid. You can change the model tho using build.prop and a couple other tools just google how to do it its pretty easy but again, it's probably not going to help you at all maybe temporarily but within an hour or so it's just going to be right back to where it was.

Seems to.

I'm @ 38% @ 18 hours off charge with reasonably heavy use. 8000mah battery. Seems better than what I was getting on interactive. I'll stick with this @ work for the next few days & report back - that's the real proof.

Yes. Downloaded the app and made that one change. Lots of other tweaks available but I only made that one change. Tried powersave but that made for super glitchy performance. Couldn't even get the screen to come on on demand. Conservative works like a charm.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] faslane:
For those using synapse but only a couple features of it you might check out an app called trickster in the Play Store. It only has a few minor settings and is nowhere near as thorough as synapse so you have less chance of messing something up if all you want to do is change the minimum and maximum speed as well as some of the other settings like power user, conservative, etc etc. You can freeze synapse with titanium backup and then install trickster until you get a better grasp of how things work if you want something more minimalistic is all I'm saying that is a good one to try.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] splkia:
Anyone know how to reset synapse to default settings I think I screwed something up. As a side note I know some users are having battery issues but I have nothing but praise for this rom. Fast and the best battery life I have experienced bar none on my W8

Or is it best to reflash?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ArchangelRenzoku:
Personally, I'm not familiar with that error and googled it but just came up with this thread and the wifi error problem.

Have you tried deactivating Samsung Reactivation lock? I assume you're on stock still but that option will lock the bootloader and you can't even flash stuff in ODIN (thought it gave a different error though). Should be in settings under Security I think. Or in developer options.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lazarus0000:
I downloaded the one you linked to in an earlier post (thanks, BTW) but haven't tried it just yet. Waiting to see how Beast does in conservative. If that works, I'll likely just keep using it. Tweaking kernels has gotten me into a bit of trouble in the past - I get a little tweak happy, forget what I've changed and end up with a phone that's less than ideal because of one little setting I've forgotten how to get to or what I did to implement. I've definitely learned KISS works for me...
