I agree with you concerning AEL kernel and especially 8.9, but I am a little sad that there will be no more support for Note 4. I can hang with 8.9 for awhile even though no wifi calling supported. That's unfortunate. But I see Beastmode 1.9.* beta is available, probably gonna give that a try since it appears there are some good things coming with Beastmode.

As for PowerAmp...I never use any other tweaks with it. It stands on its own with eq and other effects, including advanced tweaks...no other is needed, not even viper. I find it to have outstanding sound, at least the way I have it set up...as I said, been using the paid pro version for several years and am very happy with it. :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Rudolpht:
I absolutely don't mind paying for stuff and was ready to pull the trigger on the Echo app to get the last version not open community wide. Glad I didn't. Have been using BestMode 1.9.2 beta for about 4 days and very stable.

I have had an issue for about a week that Google app will not install from Playstore. I know it;s unrelated to kernel, but don't know if anyone else had the issue. I even downloaded the latest PlayServices on apkmirror just to be sure it wasn't that. Assume Google plays with Google (but not always) :)

Hey all I've been having an issue with GPS many, many, many rom flashings ago. The issue is persistent on every rom I flash, except for stock ones. The GPS simply won't lock and is extremely slow when trying to update. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jazzmachine:
Ah, I got ya. I can see how that would explain your lack of problems... but... no Viper? :confused: :crying: Man, it's still morning and I think my tongue is bleeding from having to bite it so hard! You not using V4A... Friedrich getting an S7... Nah, I'm just messing around, but it does happen to be the case that V4A and... "not getting S7's" are two of my very favorite things! Especially the latter... considering how much I enjoy not getting an S7 right now, I'm going to be freaking

elated

when they actually start being sold! :victory:

Honestly, there are a few impressive things about that phone, but from my perspective, sealing the battery and removing the IR blaster outweigh them. I mostly cared initially because of the speculation of what kind of expectations we should have for the N6, but now it's gone and taken a master kernel dev from us?? I don't even care if it scores a

968

on a scale from 1 to PREMIUMFINITE!! That phone is bad news I tells ya! :silly:

Anyone have issues where the rom is sleeping to deeply? My email client (typemail) won't get any new emails until I open it up. I love the idea of a deep sleeping device but if I don't get important emails timely then it kinda defeats the purpose.

Do you have network power saving on. If so maybe turn it off as it turns off all networks after the set time

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pigeonxda:
Nope that's not the issue, that's turned off. I guess for now I'm going to see if I can get Tasker to turn the device on every 10mins just for a couple seconds and force the app open.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gingins:
Network Power Saving is found in settings > battery , also check if you turned on sync.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] free4flight:
Yes, I hear you, loud and clear, and I am hoping, but not holding my breath that the N6 is going to be the next ticket. But they MUST allow ext. card (which I understand they are bringing back) and they must allow battery access, otherwise, forget it....won't jump ship on N4... :)

I'm actually really impressed with what LG did with the G5. The modular nature of the bottom where the battery can be removed and the accessories that can be attached to that slot is, IMO, a brilliant design. If I was interested in a smaller screen, I would be very tempted to get one. I'm hoping that the G5 has a big brother around N6 time. If that happens and the phone from each OEM is pretty much feature-equivalent I would gladly get the LG. I wrote a few posts in the "Glad I got a N4 before they screwed it up" thread in general about things that I've been learning over the past few days about the G5 and to a lesser extent the S7. I think my posts put together a good summary, and make a compelling argument for why LG pretty much nailed it, so check out the last few pages in that thread if you're interested.

Actually I just read some new info today in an Ars Technica article about both phones' usage of their external storage so I'm going to go post it in that thread (neither are going to support MM's adoptable storage, which pretty much turns all of your storage into a JBOD and allows you to install apps on the ext SD... I'll elaborate over there).
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
There is an upside to a built in battery. If you have Tmobile EPP (insurance) and the internal battery loses life etc, you can get the whole phone swapped for free. This being even 2 or years after you got it. With phones prior the battery was considered a wearable part much like brakes on a car. Since one cannot swap the battery it is considered the built in hardware of the phone and this is now covered.

For people that battery swap this doesn't help. For me personally I would love a battery access however am not going to choose a phone solely based on this ability.

The EPP coverage change is definitely an added benefit to having a built in battery.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Wilsonb:
Agree.. That's why I went from Note 3 to Note 4 instead of Note 5..

I actually use the IR (Peel Remote- because timewarner Tv Guide sux) , and replace batteries at least 2X a day and take out SD to store large data often..

They are forced to bring back the removable storage because VR content is so large, they need to bring back replaceable battery for me to jump on the Samsung band wagon again. Would consider a different brand.

They obviously don't listen to what consumers ask for, so hit them where it counts, their profits on new (unfavored) devices.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] free4flight:
Good points and something to consider, but my thinking is that sometimes the only way to reset the phone is to pull the battery and if you can't access it, then your screwed, but then again, the ole power, home and volume up/down buttons could possibly bail you out, but what if they fail to reboot you? Then what....??? And what if we wish to have the upgraded batteries that last longer? Some of us are tinker'rs and we can't live without the possibility of tinkering... lol. I personally think the note 4 is the perfect phone the way it is set up and if they can bring all that back with all the newest hardware and software, well, then we are in the best of all worlds....IMO
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Wilsonb:
Refurbished phone and you have a "Co-pay" on top of that.. They need to bring the replaceable battery back..

I heard a different concept on why they choose to keep it non-removable, "so if they needed to, the phone could be tracked / turned on remotely if they choose to." or because they want you to upgrade to a new model by the time the battery losses it's charging capability. Either way, the bad choice was not for the benefit of the consumer.

---------- Post added at 03:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:06 PM ----------

That's another good point.. Iv'e had to do this countless times.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
There is no Co pay for using th EPP. They do charge you a $5 to process and ship it but there is no deductible or anything significant.

You as can easily talk them into waiving the fee.

Yes often you get a refurbished phone but 1 or 2 years in chances are it's in better condition then the phone you have, a refresh if you will.

In many cases you actually get a new phone sealed in the box. That depends on the replacement inventory, I personally have gotten new replacements several times.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] free4flight:
I had a N3 before the N4 and if I had my choice, it would be N4 all the way, especially if the N6 doesn't come with the options that we are hoping for...can't go wrong with N4 and hopefully, the Dev's will keep the N4 going for some time to come.... just my 2 cents. :)

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] system0verload:
Disclaimer: this post is not directed at anyone! So, I don't understand the bickering when it comes to phones and features. Don't get me wrong, I don't like regression and lack of features on newer devices. However, the trend might be non-removable battery moving forward; accept it for what it is. This model has been in place for Apple successfully and look at them, they get the majority of the pie when it comes to customer's satisfaction using the crApple phones.

If the N6 brings the SD card, bigger battery, and some other features of the S7 edge, I'm jumping ship because the overall experience will be better than with the N4, doesn't matter how many ROMs are released trying to extend the life of a given device. I am not a developer and probably will never be an efficient one, but just to make a simple change to something like the system framework is a big pain in the arse.. imagine repeating this process for every iteration of new firmware coming out to adapt to an older, no longer supported device! I mean, if you don't have a life and your right hand is your companion, then yeah, I see that situation working for that person but hell, developing to maintain older tech is not fun guys..

Sorry if this comes across as a rant but progression is forward, not backwards.. at least that's how things are!

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] free4flight:
For the sake of good conversation...I don't see how a non removable battery is a progression just like I don't see a removable battery as a regression. I think it is a matter of choice and desire and possibly it makes more sense to some of us to have a removable battery, for many reasons. Perhaps they (the corporations) have their reason for making it not removable, i.e. the spying factor built within the wiring of the battery and yes, if you take one apart (the battery wrapping), you find an extra antenna built within the wrapper, yes, they say it is for NFC, but maybe, just maybe there is another use for that antenna, some believe it is a strong possibility....I have to ask the question, why would they not want us to have access to the battery? Makes no sense to me. Also, who gives a flip what Apple does...it is one of several reasons I never went with Apple. If I am to pay $700 for a phone, I should be able to choose what features it has or doesn't have. And if you think that it is beyond the possibility of the so called gov't spying on us, then one could say you haven't been reading much, especially lately. They cross the line everyday with such activity but cringe at the thought that we may find out something that they have done illegally.... but...that is a whole 'nother subject and probably not appropriate here.... Just my opinion. :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Santos89:
same here totally agree. That is the reason I didn't go to the Note 5 even though she is a beauty. Note 6 - External SD coming back... happy about that. Non removable battery.... Tek's Rom will still have my Note 4 in the game
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] system0verload:
I will only focus on the battery bullet.. However, if you didn't know it by now, you and I we don't have any privacy! And without delving into conspiracy theories, they can spy on you if they deem it necessary ( no longer the "high value target" label is necessary ). If you are a regular Joe like I am, then don't fear on someone listening to your conversations ( they already do and can do this ), reading your text messages and emails ( they already been doing this ), and have access to your private life as well, list goes on.. don't sweat it; remember, everything is done in the name of national security! Anyway..

so, OK I'll give you that you may be the .001 % of phone users that rely on replaceable batteries!

Battery technology will get better and by demanding better efficient, less bloated packages and bigger capacity / more reliable batteries on our phones is the way to go. But that's how I see it along with those who share this view.. to each its own I guess!

Switching kernel question

In order to switch from one kernel to another, do we just flash the .zip? Is it necessary to wipe anything?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lazarus0000:
Back to the convo re N4 and it's suspected successors...

Ben Thompson of Stratechery made an interesting comment this last weekend on Leo Laporte's TWiT. His view is that Samsung, LG, HTC, etc... misunderstand their market (which, given their market cap is a real shame...). He says they believe they are competing against the iPhone, hence their proclivity to make / market iPhone clones with iPhone-like features. Rather, he said, that USED to be their competition. Now, they don't compete against Apple - anyone who wants an iPhone can have one. And will get one. No, they are competing against each other and have not yet seen that. So Samsung (iron fisted whore mongers - no offense....) makes the mistake of taking away the real differentiators (battery and SD card slot), makes a pretty phone and the whole thing flops. Now they've come to realize that their customers don't give a rat's a$$ about that fluffy stuff and want something that enhances the Android experience.

We're on Android because we WANT to be, not because we have Apple envy and can't afford a "real" phone. But, up until the S6 flopped, Sammy hadn't figured that out.

And, since we're talking features, the three must haves for me are the removable battery, SD expansion slot and IR blaster - Peel sucks but once you get SmartRemote, there's no turning back. When my kids lose the remote, a daily issue, I can still operate my TV! Plus, and I'm not condoning this behavior.... it's HILARIOUS at restaurants and other places with a TV that you might want to play with....

Just saying....
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] free4flight:
Yes, put the kernel on your phone with in the root directory (easier to get to it), but I leave it in my download folder, you can point to it later. Wipe dalvik and cache, Mount system, point to the kernel.zip file, swipe to install, wipe dalvik and cache 3 times, reboot, enjoy
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jazzmachine:
I had the "perfect" example happen to me early last week: I was trying to restore a nandroid in TWRP and it just hung on 0% for close to an hour. I tried every hard key combo I could think of, and only succeeded in taking a screen shot by pressing the usual hard-restart combo. After pulling the battery, I booted back into recovery and re-wiped everything. My nandroid then restored without a problem :)

IMO universally allowing or rejecting certain permissions via a script or something wouldn't really work because it often depends on the intended function of a particular app, as well as the... "trustworthiness" of the dev. An easy example is the Contacts permission. There are apps that clearly need to access your contacts to perform their intended function and apps that clearly don't (but still want access - almost certainly for nefarious purposes!) I personally think that the "permissions on install" is a really nice feature of the ROM, but I do get where you're coming from ;)

You should also look for a folder (likely on your internal storage) named anything that has to do with the previous kernel and delete it. I know that AEL leaves a folder behind, not sure about others.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lazarus0000:
I would rephrase that as "possibly, the Note 6 later this year."

I'm not convinced that Samsung has realized their customers fall into two camps - those wanting pretty, locked down, walled garden phones (S5, S6) vs power users who want a hand held super computer that is adaptable to the needs of the knowledgeable user (Note 3, Note 4, not the never-to-be-sufficiently-damned Note 5).

If Sammy wakes up to that fact, they'll have my business forever!
