No need to get defensive, though. I had that issue and reflashed the kernel and it worked. I never said it was your ROM or whatever.

Actually maybe you should know that I took my Note 4 out of the box, put TWRP on it, flashed the new BOE1 firmware and my phone would bootloop with Samsung's rom, 100% stock. I went in TWRP and flashed the stock kernel and it booted...

And no, it wouldn't be universal. I've seen some phones not take certain kernels and others take the same kernel. It's more common than you think.

So you're saying you Odin flashed the new base and it boot looped coming out of odin?

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Dude that is such an awesome shot...gorgeous

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] boostnek9:
Yes, right out of the box. I couldn't believe it. I didn't have a rom on my SD card, panicked a bit, grabbed my wife's phone and put a rom on the SD card and wipe/flash my phone.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
No dude not twrp flash from the sd... did you use Odin to flash the stock base rom properly? Like the op instructions say...download the samsung stock rom .tar file and use odin on your pc to flash the base? If you didn't then you will have issues flashing anything build from the new base...

Sorry guys been a stupid busy week thus far...haven't had a chance to Odin yet.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] boostnek9:
I know what you mean.. I've been doing this stuff for years..

I'm telling you what I did, I flashed the BOE1 in odin on the 100% stock rom out of the box and it boot looped....... To fix it I had to flash TWRP and flash the stock kernel. This has nothing to do with your rom.. It was just me telling my story trying to help someone.. I'm very capable of flashing and such but thanks for your help. Thanks for the ROM as well.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
I'm just trying to wrap my head around the first boot loop caused by odin I've ever heard of man...just trying to understand how you ended up getting to back to twrp to flash a kernel after the odin wouldn't flash stock...which compeltely replaces the entire subsystem baseband kernel ect...i've just never heard of such a thing in over 50k posts on my threads so I'm super interested if there's this massive of a whole in the base? And how so few others are experiencing it?

I mean odin is literally the last resort to fix everything so if it's not 100% as always on this base somehow that's hella important for alot of people using the canadian note 4

Was gonna come back to your ROM Mega, but now I'll wait for V5 to be ready. lol

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Gjohnson7771:
Mega,

I bought my note 4 as a preorder and had kitkat until the OTA came out for lollipop. A few weeks ago I decided to flash firekat because I heard the battery life was insane. When I Odin flashed the stock kitkat image ank4 my phone went into bootloop. I had to revert to pop rocks and flash COD6 just to use my phone. I was basically without a phone for about 4 hours.

Since then I have tried to downgrade back to kitkat 2 more times to test drive firekat. Each time in end up in a bootloop when I flash kitkat.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
What Odin are you using 3.09? ...downgrading against the bootloader is different than flashing over it or upgrading...but obviously somethings not right cuz people are going back and forth a few times in a day to test differences lol

Double check the basics...Odin version...proper base rom files for your note...no reactivation lock...usb debugging enabled...etc...its almost always something little being overlooked ime...I have never heard of Odin reaching pass/ok then the device not booting until you 2 guys lol...Did it pass reboot? Then what happens...? Also odin LP to make sure you even have the proper odin for LP since you took Ota and bypassed the proper steps

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Guys for the few of you discussing odin....its a 1 click tool....as long as the proper drivers are installed on your pc, usb debugging is enabled, reactivation lock is disabled, you have the proper base .tar files for your note 4 and odin recognizes your device....you click start and return when your device is booted...

I've odin flashed probably 500 times realistically at the least on my various devices and ive never once had an issue with it...i typically run it right before going with Bubba for a walk typically I'm not even in the house ...on LP I'm using 3.09 but boot looping (where device cycles power off power on power off ext) is literally something I have never seen or heard of before in regards to odin...not even using an unofficial comped tar kit on att n3 for context...also remember stock LP takes like 15 mins to even get past the tmobile screen which a lot of people call "bootloop" for whatever strange reason when the device is idle while the system processes...

Most issues people choose the wrong base files ime that's the biggest problem...or they have weird usb port issues with their pc...or need a different download of odin 3.xx ect....but odin is essentially pass fail...and almost all of those issues block a successful odin flash from even starting typically...these few in between issues are def unique in my experience...I've never seen a successful odin flash uninterrupted by the user not complete dalvik/art comp and boot as usual...even odin flashing a previous bases user data never has caused me an issue even when odin flashing to LP base...so if you have extraordinary issues you should go thru and trace the issue as odin is your last resort

And just an fyi if you're new to my threads ect...not busting your balls there's no wrong answer...the idea is to make your experience as smooth easy and hassle free as possible....even if it's not directly related to my work

Now back to business...the Canadian V5X build is almost done...sitting about 99%...about to post the Can build and start pushing tmo V5...the tmo should post around 2 am or so imo depending how slow twc feels like crawling along lol

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gun26:
I've had bootloops right after doing Odin flashes of stock ROMs - they almost always happen because Odin doesn't factory reset so your old stuff is there and sometimes causes the loop. The cure is to get the phone to boot to recovery and factory reset it there, then it will finish boot properly. You can interrupt the boot loop with a battery pull or just wait and when it loops to the next boot, hold down home, volume up and power - let up on power first but hold down the other two buttons until you can be sure it's heading into recovery.

Hey guys wats the down sides of poprocks to firekat?

Is it worth flashing?

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] btbamzao:
There is no downside to either one. If you want an incredibly fast, stable, and efficient build then flash it. It is stock by the looks of it, but that's because everything mega does is under the hood. Camera is amazing. Battery is awesome. I'm a flash crazy person by nature, but I always have the latest build as a backup when I need something ultimately stable.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Ilkinansr92:
Yeh I've always used megas ROMs but many people said battery or performance wasn't as good as on FireKat. Well on lollipop compared to kitkat to be exact.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] btbamzao:
I apologize. I misread what you were asking. LP in general has a small deficit in battery, but it sounds like v5 is working that out.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] electech13:
I was curious about this too.. From what I researched, not much at all and in testing it stock on another phone, couldn't notice any difference

I'm surprised you even redid the build for this base lol.. If it went 5.0.2 or 5.1 sure but a mildly tweaked 5.0.1..wow..good on you. You must love what you do and have time to burn!

Hopefully there are some worthwhile improvements (on the base) to warrant the time you spent :)

Thanks nonetheless

Has always worked fine here. I have yet to run into a TB issue on any phone or any custom rom yet period.. Over several years now.

And as for user data, have done four full wipe/restores on v4 now with batch process of over 100 user app (with data) and no fail at all or os issues/fc's or any unwanted operation whatsoever
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Lol its literally how I taught myself to build roms haha...picking apart variances file by file

There's definitely some changes but they get muddied to death in stock man you can't tell anything that way... it's why I had to do that flat V5 to fully measure the impact...the efficiency is also noticeably improved in V5...but remember the builds arent just what's in the base it's also what was already being working on prior for v5 before a base dropped...I'm def really curious to see how things settle in what the overall result is for everyone

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] electech13:
This doesn't make sense to me because a factory reset is unneeded when Odin flashing stock. It overwrites all the key partitions anyways and basically only leaves the internal storage intact. So it should not happen.

You mention flashing "stock roms" but if you are odin'ing it would be full stock "firmware".. I assume just a wording thing.. But if just flashing a stock ROM (just a rom.. And would be through recovery) then sure, could happen.

But Odin flash of full stock firmware doesn't leave anything from past setup that it could conflict with to cause the bootloops.. Thus a factory reset isn't needed..

Very odd...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
This is basically what I've been saying as well...you're not gonna miss out on anything being on Firekat...and with V5X and wanam both coming out tonight you're really not missing much from fk in pr...is v5 gonna be as extremely efficient as fk? Probably not due to the speed but if it's in the ballpark you can easily adjust from there

Mega
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] electech13:
Hey Mega since the new Canadian base on SamMobile is still only the Telus dl will I need to reset my csc or it stays in tact? Can't remember as I usually stick with proper carrier flashes here.. I know the Canadian firmwares are all the same and can cross flash etc.. But isn't it only the csc that changes (and in some cases, a bit of bloat)?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Idk man that's a good question...Odin will swap your csc when you flash the base...but idk I'm not sure what you had to do before if you needed to do anything special or not? Since that's not really like a csc variant unless their specific to the carrier like ours are "locked" you know what I mean...then it'd make sense just to copy V4 customer.xml over to V5 csc folder...it may be less hassle just to do the csc mod...but I'm sure sef or force or someone will be around and known for sure...I would think you'd be alright but you may need to swap out customer.xml

Both tmo and candian V5X builds are live in the op...other variants to follow this week...enjoy

Features of V5X:

*canadian users also have the new base aspect of V5...

Focused On Battery Efficiency

A Few Rendering and Responsiveness Optimizations

Further Camera Refinements

The focus was essentially to take V4 and make it more efficient which seems to have been successful...a least preliminarily...I'll know more in depth efficiency gains as things settle in

Overall the build feels better...even cooler, slightly tighter and more refined...with note and the other guys mods and themes plus wanam it couldn't all have come together better imo...

So excited to try the new ROM, Mega!! FireKat was INDEED my favorite and BEST Android experience to date!! I know this will only be an extension of that enjoyment, and looking forward to the future enhanced builds as well!!! Thank you again and again for all of your hard work & helpful nature!! :good:

-If it matters at all on your decision, I hope you will indeed implement WiFi Tether and the Grid Customizations early in the new builds (if no unforeseen complications) ;)

Can't wait to make this bad boy "new" again!!! :victory:

Yea they'll def be included like in fk at some point...mainly in this initial stage I'm focused on just getting people a fast stable build to check out lp without being saddled with stock and Knox....then we can add to it from there...

But I'll be honest idk about Tethering...qe have to see how things go since tmo has cracked down on it but we can play that by ear

Anytime you ever use root explorer you grant permissions to root man...if you don't have supersu set on grant with lollipop your root apps will not work properly at this point ime...it's not your method for swapping an apk is bad or something lol... it's something in your setup punting what we both know is basic apk swap on one side or mod on the other...both failed in root explorer as both are using the exact same kb just minus that line of code in feature.xml...so that's why I'm leaning towards check your supersu is set to grant...reopen feature.xml...save again...it'll create a new .bak...delete it and reboot...that should force it if root is properly functional

Hey Mega

You won't believe this, it's 3am in the morning here & I fixed the keyboard issue I was having.

I just did not want to give up on it so what I did was open the Poprocks zip file rom &

extracted the feature.xml to sdcard and used root explorer's text editor, but this time I

edited feature.xml in /sdcard instead of the csc folder.

I saved the file & copied it over to csc over-writing the existing file & fixed permissions.

Rebooted the phone and now there are no more secondary symbols on the keyboard!

Thanks again for all your help!!!

Unrooted Version

Hey Mega,

I wonder if you would be so kind as to post an 'unrooted' version of poprocks. Unfortunately for work I have to use Good for Enterprise which has a root checker. I was able to get around this with root cloak and xposed but now cant in Lollipop (aside from hiding root but thats not really a solution as you have to toggle etc and Good will disable itself as soon as its toggled off). I'd love to be able to run your rom but just missing out on root. I tired yesterday to install and then unroot using the supersu app and it seemed to work fine but then would not boot up again, just got stuck at the white tmobile screen forever. I tried twice so must be a supersu thing or something with the new lollipop build. Anyhow, would it be easy enough for you to post each new version of the rom in an unrooted form as well? Not sure if others can benefit from this too but all your tweaks rock, firekat was amazing. Let me know, thanks man.
