thanks

Awesome rom..puts the stock experience to shame!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
That is why I suggested the two apps I did. It is easy to assume a new rom version causes a certain issue like battery drain in this case but other things may have changed at the same time. Was a new app installed at the same time and you aren't connecting the two and things like that. It is possible that something went wacky during the upgrade so those two apps can lead you to what is really causing the battery drain.

I can't tell you how many times I have to look into a problem and once I find the issue, the person tells me oh I forgot I did that and so on.

Jongcruz, this is more of a general comment that I am making and not directed at you. Hopefully those two apps will help you out though if the stock kernel doesn't resolve the issue.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fiendiish:
This is odd because Android System has never consumed all my power...never has....isn't now. Wonder what's going on with your stuff? :what:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
This seems to be a Lollipop issue, if it is actually an issue, from what I saw browsing around. It isn't isolated to just this rom.

EDIT: This Android System issue goes back several years so it isn't just LP. Lots of threads on it if you google it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jongcruz:
No man I'm not taking anything personal here, this is an open community to help each other.....I really appreciate you put time on giving me options :) .....let's see how it goes with the factory kernel. I'm also checking if any app is causing the issue. At the end if I find something we all win.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] BACARDILIMON:
They have a thread called battery rape. Lol this poor guy came up and I think it messed up his pit file. He at 25%forsystem. He gonna try one more flash but a phone replacement is advise for him. So many people are using back ups of app data from kitkat on lp and it killing the phones. Just my 2 cent. I wiped sd card internal and system a few times before I did my upgrade. Kernel is not an issue. I running both ael and emotion with no issues accept the random freeze and reboot that was fixed by fixing permission in twrp after wiping dalvik and cahe
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jongcruz:
Well thanks but is not the case here....to start with lollypop I wipe the entire phone then Ondin. Finally this ROM. (I'm not blaming the ROM by the way)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] BACARDILIMON:
Did you wipe internal and external then save the file to internal card.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Nonny_SA:
Thanks a lot

Hello ,

finally i am able to write here in the main forum, and wanted to say thanks for an exelent ROM/Work so fare i didnt had any trouble (clean flash) , all looks like its working very well, now i will "play" with it a little , maybe i can ask a little question , the "Call/Ring" sound is a little "heavy" my phone was close to jump from the table ;) , where was the option to lower the audio booster here , even the standard volume control looks a little loud to me, and what was the entry # again where i find the setup for Dolby and ViperFX , so i will read again how to setup it corectly , and again i am very happy so far exelent work ! Thanks a lot !

With friendly Greetings

Nonny
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] system0verload:
On post #2, on the very first page where you download this ROM you will find the stock volume mod. Download it, goto recovery mode, install, and reboot!

Enjoy and welcome to this awesome forum friend!

I have been running spotify all day. Here are my results plus I have been on fb on the chrome... you tell me if this is good?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ice5192:
I beat you with 75 missed calls today =)

---------- Post added at 03:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:46 PM ----------

7 percent for mine... how much is yours running?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] NeoAndroid:
Ok. I hope this will help somebody. I dirty flashed 2.9 with the Emotion Kernel it came with. I'm using Synapse to tweak the settings based on the kernels thread. Then I installed Servicely, Wakelock Detector and that's it. In Servicely, I selected all user apps. Then under Service, I included Inbox, Google Play Services and Samsung apps.

Now, Everything still works with no lag. I still get my email, etc. Now here's where it helps, it'll sleep for 6-7 hours without any drain. I unplug the charger before I go to bed then check it when I wake up, still at 100%.

I have it set at 100% brightness, High accuracy on Location and Sync on and I still get roughly 5 hours SOT. I still get 50K+ on Antutu for those who care lol. Both Dolby and Viper are working and turned on. I'm using Nova Prime with all the gestures enabled (eats battery life).

So, maybe I got lucky? Well the difference I think with me and everydbody else is that I let the ROM settle without installing anything for 2 battery cycles before I restore them from Titanium. I hope this helps. This ROM rocks!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Nonny_SA:
Thanks a lot i will take a look on post #2 then , thanks !

[MENTION=2384865]ice5192[/MENTION] my Android System is at 3%.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TEKHD:
I removed the file a while ago... (it was actually on post #1)

Try turning the power switch off (inside Dolby App) and check the volume...

if it is still too loud for you... let me know... I can add the file again to OP
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] xnknown:
just wondering if anyone has tried note4me's debloat file on this rom?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] note4me:
I believe TekHD already debloats the rom when flashing..you would not require that.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Nonny_SA:
OHHH !!!

Well, i belive we leave it like it is , i do not get to much calls anyway but we better leave the dolby on as it is now , lets forget about the ringer/call sound , all is fine , i love the sound and also works with viber , ah one thing ! when the "finger" air flow/view is turned on then the calender ab reacts a little slow , i turned it off and calender is fast again , no stress about this one but i just found this out , exelent work i am (well i am not sure about the correkt english word) impressed ? <-- is that understandible ?

All is fine no flash / or update needed here , thanks a lot again !

with friendly greetings

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] BACARDILIMON:
Nice find on that app. Greenify does more harm for my phone then good.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] xnknown:
why do you say greenify does more then good?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] BACARDILIMON:
Cause it runs in background and replaced a lot of my battery drains with it's own. I saw battery life when it was gone
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ice5192:
Yeah boy! This rom rocks

---------- Post added at 04:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:40 PM ----------

Reflash and pull battery once the phone reboots. Reseed battery flash again clear catch and data try again.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Misterjunky:
re: toggles

Since flashing the v2.9 rom I no longer have any toggle issues and the flashlight is fixed

plus I can arrange toggles, so I was wondering if the toggle expansion would benefit me?

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TEKHD:
simple... if you don't see download booster twice... you are fine... if you still see it... flash the REV-6 then...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PapaMag:
Revamped Lock Screen Wallpaper

[MENTION=4107827]TEKHD[/MENTION] I messed with the font and sizing a bit, kinda like this one better
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
If you are not having any issues then no it is not needed. The toggles are baked into the rom and has been for a while now. The expansion for the current versions was only needed to correct an issue.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TEKHD:
Still prefer the previous one... lol
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Misterjunky:
I love the status bar layout it has icons on both the left and right side of the status bar instead

of stock which has all the icons bunched up on the right hand side.

It looks excellent, the only improvement I can think of would be to allow the 4G/LTE icon to be

displayed regardless of the wifi being enabled or not.

Thanks for all the hard work you have put into this rom.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
TEK, will you just get this done already! :D What you really need to do is create a menu where the user can pick and choose which items are displayed. That would take care of a lot of requests. :p

Just messing with you Misterjunky. ;)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PapaMag:
Going a different direction with the next one :p
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Misterjunky:
re: volume

The volume is the same whether dolby is on or off as long as the equalizer remains at default level

and the 3 switches volume leveler, dialogue enhancer and surround sound virtualizer are disabled.

Personally speaking I think the volume levels are just right and the volume slider has plenty of stops

where it can be adjusted and fine tuned to suite anyone.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Prolyfyk1982:
Does 2.9 have tw theme chooser. I checked OP as well as search and couldn't find anything. I'm new to this Rom. Sorry if it's already been answered.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
The S6_TW (Default in 2.9) has a Theme chooser when you hold down on the background but it is not functional in this rom.

TEK will be building Themes again for v3 and above.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dugryce:
This is frustrating me...none of the music players see the audio files on my external SD card. I've done clean install...then reflashed...formatted the card and re-downloaded the music...nothing. Seems odd...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] streinjer:
Does unrestricted tethering works? Thanks
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
I normally just stream now a days but I will put some on my SD and test. Did you try moving any to the internal storage to see if that works?

Just for you dugrce. :D Worked with the built in player.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] BACARDILIMON:
Poweramp does
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] georgei11:
I would like the file for stock sound.. it's still too loud for my quiet work environment, and I can't adjust it so that it stays quiet enough.

Thanks
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dugryce:
Well...you're right...it does. But I'm concerned that the others don't. Also...when I download via Google Play, PowerAmp does not have the song information. Also...PowerAmp seems to be the ONLY music player that sees my audio files. Is that normal?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
Files downloaded through play can only be seen by play as far as I know unless they are purchase songs.

I have one song downloaded from Play and it is not seen by Poweramp. It is not a purchased song.

The songs on my SD card are seen by Poweramp, stock player and Google play as well.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] BACARDILIMON:
It not normal. Other devs are slacking with music players. They need to update the apps.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dugryce:
Streaming does seem the way to go these days...and no I haven't tried the internal storage. I have 28 gigs of music to download to the external storage, (what I had on the card before the phone went haywire yesterday), so I'd like it to work...but it isn't vital...or a deal breaker. The Dolby not working with Viper is still a bit frustrating, but I can live with that, too! I guess I'm not as demanding when it comes to some of the features of the ROM. A lot of the stuff I read about I don't even use. That's why my satisfactory level is so low...easy to please!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jongcruz:
In order to make that possible [MENTION=4107827]TEKHD[/MENTION] will need to implement AROMA INSTALLER which I don't think is available for note4 devices.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
Poweramp, the stock player, and Google Play all see my songs on the SD card.

The song that was downloaded from Google Play is only seen by it though. This is normal unless you purchased the songs I believe.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ice5192:
Yup 10 hours best rom ever this is with my 75 missed unanswered calls this is with spotify running all darn day this is me using fbm and snapchat and xda posting and chrome. As well my phone has been connected to my corporate email with exchange I use nine application for exchange 10 freaking hours is not bad at all roughly 11 hours of use time I still have 1 hour and 50 mins left on this baby. It does not have any issues anyone who is experiencing battery issue reflash or reset battery stats and or get a new battery. Well done sir.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PuffinMuphin:
I keep losing root when updating to 2.9 from 2.8 any suggestions?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Misterjunky:
re: root issue

What are the exact specific steps you have taken when updating v2.8 to v2.9 ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dugryce:
The stock player doesn't see the downloaded music from Google Play.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
Yes that is correct, subscription music downloaded to the phone is only seen by Google Play.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dugryce:
Well...talk about an education TO-DAY!!! Wow!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Misterjunky:
re: music

If the subscription song/music that was downloaded was copied to

the default music folder would that be seen by all music players?

Just wondering...

I don't use any of the subscription music services online.

I just copy all my favorite mp3's I have on my computer

to my phone's default music folder on the external sd card

and all the music players recognize them regardless where

they came from or originated.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Melodic13:
I did the same exact thing you're doing yesterday (switched to stock) due to the exact same issue you were facing with battery drain and android system. I've been on stock kernel since yesterday and phone runs cooler and battery improved somewhat (for me and my device anyway). But I will keep hunting until I find the culprit using the apps mentioned/suggested previously to monitor what exactly is consuming my battery. This started for me when I started using emotion, so I will also do a test with ael. Once I use the apps to locate battery drain and test stock and ael, I'll post my findings. Whatever I have to figure out I don't care, I refuse to let go of this ROM, it's the best![emoji1]
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
The Play Music music has to do with copy protection. If you download the music and stop paying for the subscription, the music has to stop being playable. So Play Music downloads the music to your phone (Internal or External storage) depending on what you choose. These files are numbered and just looking at them with a file explorer, you can't tell what song is which.

As a test, I moved one of these songs out of this folder to the Media folder. 1255.mp3 is seen by power amp along with Google Play in the Media folder now. Neither one can play this 1255.mp3 from the media folder though. Google Play can't even play it even though it was downloaded from it because it is not in the folder where that song was indexed and where in knows about it. This applies to Paid music as when you download it through the app. If you want to download a normal version of the song that can be played anywhere, you have to do it through your PC and webpage.

Clear the data on the Play app and guess what, all those songs you downloaded are GONE!

If your interested more in what Play Music is doing, take a look in data\data\com.google.android.music and you can see how it creates a DB and everything for this.

Oh and back to files not being able to be seen by music players, make sure the folder that the music is in DOES NOT HAVE .nomedia in it. This is telling music players not to see these files as music. Nothing to see here, move along. :p

Play Music folders has this .nomedia in it which is why the other players can see this music. You don't want them to see music that they can't play.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jongcruz:
Hey keep me posted....I'm also making some test with stock kernel.....tomorrow I will probably Odin the factory ROM and test....but yes everything started (system and battery drain issue) after emotion kernel.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] manny20082020:
thanks for this awesome rom only problem netflix dont work
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jongcruz:
Just flash the stock kernel, setup Netflix then reflash Emotion kernel.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] manny20082020:
thank you body
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lildoggs:
I have a weird issue going on with this rom. Is anyone else getting this.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] anthony92170:
People need to see your on screen time. You can have a phone up for 20 hrs and only 2 hrs on screen time. So telling people to re flash get a new battery is wrong.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TEKHD:
I see center clock... that means you flashed a theme... (there are no themes for version URv2.9)

in other words... damage self inflicted. Take a look at the top of posts #2 & #3...

it looks like you even flashed a theme for the Canadian rom from post #2...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Misterjunky:
re: rom issue

Well after reading what TEKHD posted it looks like you will

need to go back to the drawing board and start all over again. LOL
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
Should be easier than that, just flash one of the mods and that should get rid of the theme damage. Worse case would be a dirty flash.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PhoneG3ek:
Bug?

Are those normal to have on the notification panel? It also shows on the lock screen. I thought it was a problem with mine only but this guy has it too :confused:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Nonny_SA:
hello , this is a kind of grafical audio respond , like grafic equiliser i dont know the corect english word , i have that also ;) so i belive its normal :cowboy:

Nonny

it moves also when music is playing ....
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
Hey that is MY screenshot, you owe me royalties. :D

Changelogs tend to discribe what is in the rom, they are in the OP. :p

URv2.7 (Ultra Release v2.7) [MENTION=4107827]TEKHD[/MENTION]

- New Notifcation / LockScreen Equalizer

- Now Emotion Kernel
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PhoneG3ek:
Lol sorry I was kinda giving you credit I should've mentioned you in it. Is there any way to disable it though? I've search up and down my settings.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
No way to disable it, this is built into the rom. What you can do is change between the S6 and Edge launchers and have 3 choices for status bar layouts, well 4 if you include the default.

See my post #2638 on page 264 to see what each one looks like.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] OriginxRambo:
Can you add an option for scrolling wallpaper for the default TW? Getting a launcher from the play store takes away the experience and doesn't feel right. It would be awesome if you could put that in the next one TEKHD.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jongcruz:
Actually yes you can disable it....all you have to do is flash one of the mods like no clock or no speed bars because as [MENTION=4107827]TEKHD[/MENTION] said, any modification you do to the UI will disable this EQ bars.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
Actually no that is not true, flashing any of the status bar mods do NOT remove this. I had the No Data mod when that screenshot was taken.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jongcruz:
Well let me tell you I flashed no clock mod and it went away. So two different case scenarios.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
Do you mean where it just keeps going in circles instead of getting Flipboard? If so then yes when running the Edge_TW. Long press on the background and choose Home screen settings. Then uncheck Flipboard Briefing.

---------- Post added at 10:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 PM ----------

Well something else you did broke it then because I just flashed the No Clock mode and it is still working fine.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] OriginxRambo:
Well what I meant is that like in Stock Android. The wallpaper moves as you scroll across the home screens. If that can be done by turning off the Flipboard shortcut I'll try that, but as far as I know I remember that when we could use Xposed on TW with KK that there was a mod to have moving/scrollable wallpapers on TW.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chipworkz:
No that is not what I was talking about, that worked on Stock LP I thought but not in this rom that I know of. What I was talking about with Flipboard is just to allow the home screens to continue in a loop.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] OriginxRambo:
Yeah I know I think it would be a nice option to have especially since it's so hard to find 2k wallpapers that you want to see the full image in. If TEKHD added that feature that would definitely be a huge plus in my book as I love this ROM and everything he's adding to it this wouldn't be a bad suggestion if possible to do that is.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] zounduser:
Cool. I knew there was one for the previous Rom, but wasn't sure about this one. Thank u bro. Good job man!

Also I noticed the whistle notification sound is missing. Lol. I know it's annoying, and most people hate it. But that's y I love it! No biggie, I'll grab it from zedge.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TEKHD:
ohhh... that one will turn your toggles green... for the current version... no... nothing yet... will do one during the weekend... promess...

Dr macro fish when you did the dirty flash you wipe 3 times or only one?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jongcruz:
Anybody being unable to setup the Gear S? When trying to setup it says nothing to download. Is like there's no compatibility because can't find gear manager.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] detroyerx:
is it too much to ask to have the toggles blue with green and grey with green like before too? lol hahaha just wondering it would add variety :D
