Quick heads up fellas...just a reminder...whenever I say check or set permissions...that means for whatever given mod check it's original perms before making any changes...then when you say paste xyz to replace the original file you simply set the modded file permissions the same as the original

In short look before changing anything...check the mod again prior to rebooting... it'll save you time and hassle just paying closer attention the first go round and having everything lined up to make it easy as can be

Good news is I'm on the tmobile jump lease. So if I don't like it I can trade when the nexus comes out. But this note 5 is blazing fast and I love the fingerprint sensor. Makes a huge difference

Hey mega, sorry to bother again but I need your advise, or if this has happened to anyone else, since yesterday I noticed that if I pause music player, after a couple seconds the phone restarts on its own, I don't know whats making it crash, my music is on the ext sd card, the only thing different is that I installed the battery saving mods I copied all of those like instructed, and battery life is awesome now, only facing this small issue with music player, I wanted to ask before I flash everything again, in case I can fix it without wiping.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Hmm I use mine all the time with a similar setup...let me pause it and see hold on...

Added...testing playing then pausing for like 30 seconds how long does it usually take to reboot? Mine will play and pause like usual from noti panel or app as far as the last minute or so is concerned?

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] c-prodigo:
It never ever happened before, am running stock kernel only using your mods, no XPOSED, "amen to that" phone flyes its pretty fast and snappy, battery is better than ever.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Lol idk maybe it'll surprise you lol...hopefully you guys get root soon at least you wouldn't be totally stuck on stock

happens if I pause music and screen goes off
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
OK I paused it...wait 15 seconds...then screen off for 20 but I just get my notification light. .nothing unusual at least on my setup

Never know. Really surprised at the stock battery life on 5.1. It's actually really good.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Really? Interesting what kinda numbers are you getting? The few hands on guys I've chatted with haven't been so kind lol

It'd be crazy it the n5 was getting over 3 to 3.5 hours sot full brightness which is the max my buddy is seeing on the sprint edge plus so far

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea idk unless your maybe using a 3rd party music app that was greenified or something odd like that possibly I can't really see what would cause it? Viper installed?

I'll get some screens here in the next day or so and post them up of battery stats

Ok, I've been real quiet and just kinda letting myself experience pop rocks. I've been here for a while now and I have only one problem. It started on v6. When I go to use the "?" Shortcut key on the Sammy keyboard....the whole damage keyboard fc's. I can work around this by using the period key shortcut(recently used punctuation) but God damn it I should be able to long press the "m" key on my keyboard. I guess I'll have to pay attention, be diligent, and get a log cat.....either that or I didn't read enough.

My Wife put Pop Rocks in her mouth and then did this......
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] trichrome1:
Its so dumb that Canadian carriers take that option to turn the shutter sound off out.. Thanks for the help Mega!

Also for the guys that got n5 or edge plus or considering it...all ripping on the kits or joking aside...be extremely careful with every single thing you do on those devices...many people have never tried recovering from a no boot or soft brick without the ability to pull the battery or wipe the device given all files will store internally ect...combined with the unbelievable amount of security and knox complexities...just a heads up...be extremely careful fellas don't want to see anyone wind up with a paper weight esp given the new stance on root/roms and warranty...or simply a bad experience for whatever it's worth your spending close to a grand I want it to be the best possible experience it can be for those of you so just a heads up

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] GatoL0c0:
Considering the devices were released only 1 day ago, I'd recommend holding off doing anything crazy. I think I waited maybe over a month before deciding to do anything for my Note 4.

Patience young Padawan. :highfive:

I did quite well holding off with my note 4, 5 hrs or so i think until I started flashing lol.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Thee_illuminati:
I'm loving Poprocks v8 .

My note runs super fast, not exactly sure why xposed is causing lag or anything on other note 4 s but mine runs exactly as it does without it. I did multiple tests for a few days and well, it's running smooth as butter. I'm even running viper4 and wanam....no problems here!

Thanks mega for all the work you do!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] SlakWReX:
Mine as well but l haven't been getting great battery life.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Thee_illuminati:
I usually get about 4 hour sot but I have 2 battery kits and 1 battery that came with my phone. I keep one at home, one in my car and one on my phone. Always charging. So I have no problem with that. Lol
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Lmao right i agree esp with note 5... but it's way easier to say hold off or wait...until you paid 800 or 900 dollars to run stock...i was gonna return my N4 last year if I didn't get twrp by day 14 and it didn't have all the downsides...so I get the pull lol and normally It's not a huge deal but a sealed device with no sd makes things way trickier to combat the insane amount of Knox and security

I rooted my note like 5 mins after I got home...and flashed fk on my tab 8.4 literally within minutes of getting the box open lol I can't stand stock but the game has changed drastically even from our wide open n4 just from 11 months ago so I gotta reco holding off at least until you know some hard facts about root (if it even comes this soon) and the intricacies and ins and outs of the new devices bases and security

Run quadrant its not a debate its universal lol...but like ive said all along as long as you enjoy it it doesn't matter how big of a downgrade your setup takes its relative and only matters for people preferring xposed vs cpu downgrade

My battery life is exactly the same with and without Xposed. Lol

Typically I get about 3 1/2 to 4. It's always been like that. On Kit Kat, I managed to get 5. No idea how that was accomplished. Lol ? ?

This time around I'm not using Greenify or Xposed and it's still the same.

Performance wise, I haven't noticed anything substantial either. Lol

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Graivite:
Know your feel bro. I've been playing with battery saving apps since I bought my first Note 4. Xposed, Boot Manager, Amplify, Greenify, PowerNap, Smart Network. And then I suddenly stopped using all this stuff. Why? It's a smartphone, it has a lot of features and those features need power. It's like buying a Ferrari and lower the power a lot. If we want a phone that will last forever - buy a normal phone, not a smartphone.

In my opinion, the real question we should ask ourselves before choosing KK or LP is whether I need power or battery.

Power - go for PopRocks

Battery - go for FireKat
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ar2o:
Hey mega,

I wrote the build props lines for the recent apps speed up as per instruction, deleted bak file and rebooted and could not boot up. I ended up telling myself "well, this seems like a perfect opportunity to flash firekat v14x and try it out" and man I'm so happy with it! Did you tweak the efficiency or something? And the recents are as fast on it as on pr on my note! So overall I was happy with the forceful change! I'll likely run this until your v9x launches :)

Question:

-the new build.prop zip you uploaded that took your setup to a whole different level, can that be implemented in say a future build of firekat? I'm sure alot of us would love for you, if you have the time of course, to continue development support for the Firekat as its in my opinion, the number 1 ROM for our note, just asking tho :)

-that 5x5 TouchWiz, can I use it on firekat or is it only lollipop?

As always, Thank you for your work Mega :thumbup: :beer: :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] design12:
Mega got a quick question. Is there a way to implement the ad blocking mod hosts that's default in v8x into adaway? Using adaway because of the Facebook issue. Would like to see if there's a way or if we have to choose between one or the other. Thanks!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea it'll be included in V15X and V9X both...it's only lollipop...there was 5x5 4.4.4 launcher floating around i remember tho just check around or search fk thread and you'll prolly find it

You could add some of what I've built into adaway via hot modding the adaway host ect....but it would be extremely tedious to add the yt adaway blocks on your device cuz there's tons of code in the hosts but it's probably doable I'd you have a ton of free time to compare the pr mod and adaway then mix them lol

Ive tried a couple of those types of apps...got very used to knock features on my G2. Still miss the back buttons lol

If that device had more than 32g of internal storage id still have it.

Def hoping the G4 pro doesn't disappoint (of course after the note 5 the disappoint bar has been raised to a new level)..would be nice to get another LG device

sent from my Nexus 6 or Note 4
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ar2o:
We can hope so but firekat was just the build with a dream base. I still doubt anything will beat it but that's definitely the goal to aim for.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea I still think the g3 is one the sexiest devices of the last year or two...Def really excited for g4 pro or pro 3...lol Yea I doubt anything will nail the gestures...thinking about it too I'm guessing that be some serious battery hoops to jump through running an app like that lol

I used kitkat for a long time and every base after that. From that experience I am telling you that is improved above kitkat and anything else in efficiency, fluidity, quickness and almost everything else. The only thing that kitkat has as of right now is exposed. We are not sure for certain if it will run on 5.1.1 as it did on kitkat

Just a quick clarification on V8X because the OP changelog kinda runs together for V7X/V8X. Is the multi-window mod the main change in V8X, or is that subsequent list also part of the changes? I am running V7X and don't use multi-window too much... wondering if it's worth it for me to take the time flashing V8X.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Dharris76:

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] GatoL0c0:
Completely unrelated but does it drive anyone else nuts when people use the term download when they really should be using upload? Lol ?

Drives me so crazy when I hear it. It's not called downloading when you are sending a file, it's called uploading! Lol the local news is killing me this morning.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] OmsagroSylph:
I hope I didn't miss this while searching but I am having issues with the standard lock screen. It only asks me for my pattern when the phone is plugged in or upon first restart. If I unplug it, i just have to swipe to unlock. I did a clean install of V8x. I don't know if installing the volume warning mod somehow caused this, but its the only thing I installed that I don't normally. Any thoughts?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] aryehzev:
Camera samples
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] GatoL0c0:
Personally I would just Odin back to stock and start over just to make sure that I got everything. I don't how the volume mod has anything to do with it. It's gotta be something else that you did.

Did you make a backup before installing the volume mod by chance?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] OmsagroSylph:
I did but was hoping not to have to step back. Guess I'll do that when I get home.

GOT IT! There was something else I did different this time. It was a change I made to build prop to make the quick connect toggles go away. (editing Product.Name). Undid that and will just use your Mod Mega.

For Future Reference: Editing Product.Name on build prop does weird things to lock screen (Only asks for pass/pattern on boot or when charging)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] GatoL0c0:
Lol so it was something you did. I just use the fingerprint unlock; it's much quicker option for me. The last time I used the pattern unlock was back on Froyo and Gingerbread. ?

Glad you were able to retrace your steps!
