It is a good phone but still can't make it my daily.. At least not now.

I am really considering the G4..it's camera is sick and performance is good.. But likely wouldn't switch to daily..

Maybe just keep handy at home for those indoor kids shots ;) - ya ya.. My only quam with this N4 camera..

My dealer buddy will give me open box to test soon and if wanted I'll get it for $400-$500..so probably worth while.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
My buddy picked up a sprint g4 he likes it...the camera is nice...it's basically a fv5 replica lol which isn't a bad thing by any means...LG has some seriously ugly ui and icon sets but as a whole put a pretty good kit together especially the last 2 years...gotta be honest tho and can't say I wasn't bummed they canceled the g pro 3 man...that was more than likely what I was gonna go with if Samsung screw up n5...I've really enjoyed my g flex for what it is and what little I paid...that'd be a great switch up from a note

I've been considering a flex 2 also for the hw vs money...similar camera and featured as g4...killer hw bar qualcomm source driver issues with the 810 right now...but I figure with a rom really fine tuned and focuses it may make a decent kit...may make a good deal as a backup device that's looking like an option as well

Yes I have this issue at least once a day, sometimes more depending on how many calls I make. I use my phone for work and usually have a few hours of calls each day.

I had this issue earlier today. Had to reboot my phone to get data working again.

Have never had that issue on my N4 and can't say I've heard of anyone here reporting on it either so I wouldn't even think of trying that fix... Not applicable here.. Actually the ram management on this is awesome (uses most of it all the time - which is a good thing.. Free ram is wasted ram on Android).. I have almost endless apps left in recent to launch quickly.. They even stay after reboots (which is awesome btw.. That only start here in LP btw?)

So gotta say.. S6 has a prob that doesn't exist here

Anything pre the may28th update soft bricked my phone but since that update it installs and works great. Tbh though I prefer the app ops mod a bit more just for its simplicity, ease of use and ui.. But XPrivacy can't certain do more..

Ya I saw this info on a few site a good week ago... July... Then to carriers God knows when.. Won't get my hopes up but still months away.. And ironically at time of articles Rogers (my carrier up here in Toronto) was the only north American carrier yet to commit to a soft time frame on that release... Once again.. Won't hold my breathe but the Canadian 5.1.1 will likely get out before TMob though.. (although practically all of em do)

On the ps4 topic, yeah I have a few 1tb hdds hanging around, I'm gonna do the swap soon, I love that Sony set it up to auto format the drive :)) so you don't have to really do much.

And yeah the s6 active kills the s6/edge I feel real bad for anyone that bought one already... Lol I just got my note 4 about 5 months ago I didn't jump on it right away... Idk what my next device will be I do like the g4 but again I don't want anything that big, I'm 5'7" and this thing always feels like a struggle in my small hands.

If it comes down to a trade off between keeping this base as is or losing the ability to go back to fk...I'm pretty content with V5X as is...I'm game for a new more refined optimized base but def not at the trade off of further lockouts...thanks for the info

The active looks pretty sweet...it def sucks for the people stuck with the normal s6 I'd be so pissed lol...the s6 plus would be cool too...the g4 would be a cool alternative...I'm just not sure I could carry any android that's not a samsung at this point for my main device...they just offer so much and are continually refined...the ui and skin is where my G Flex kinda fails...it's a tricky time to buy a phone right now not many other standouts but the 2 big boys and the s6 variants

Has anyone found an xposed mod that allows you to hide the alarm clock icon?

Thx.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Product F(RED):
If this locks the bootloader, don't freak out. I believe the T-Mobile and Sprint S6/EDGE got a toggle added in Security called "Allow OEM Unlock" to allow bootloader unlocking. But yeah, if you were on CM or something and didn't flash back beforehand, you might be in trouble. The stock ROM has to tell the bootloader (while Android running) to disable Factory Reset Protection. It's basically Reactivation Lock all over again.

All credit goes to you my man! I still, have the Google services in,the 25-50k range, I have to figure out how to cut down the net_scheduler wakelock that's in Google services as well as the NLP wakelock service that's part of Google services and Google now. I have all my Google settings set up as per your instructions. Maybe amplify can help me reduce the NLP wakelock but I tried it with fk v13x and it had 0 effect on it :S any recommendations for anyone regarding these 2 services? Google App even when greenifed and not used once it manages 2.5k wakelocks but that 1/3 to 1/2 less than not greenifed.

Not many really that I've heard of...anything over 6 inches are Huawei devices...the note 5 is pretty up in the air for me...Samsung seems to need to keep pushing out concept phones instead of refining what they have so idk I'm kinda waiting to see what happens with the note...but Yea for 6 inches plus I'm looking at the mediapad x2 and p8 max...but as for my daily serious device...n4 is looking like it's gonna be in for the long haul given how few alternatives are on the horizon

I believe it was v3 of poprocks and i feel obligated to change my reviews and opinion i had for this rom. Its been about 4 days with 5x and this rom has come long ways to the number one on my list. I talked a little trash long time ago about this rom, not because of my bad intentions but that's what kind of experience i had.

Now this is number one again on battery life, stability, smoothness and overall performance. A very kind applause from me to the op. Great work, and thank you very much.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pcriz:
I guess its relative to what you are assuming people are experiencing. The fact that your apps are in recent doesn't speak directly to the fact that they are sitting in the ram. Also the fix isn't to free up ram but to make the system less aggressive in killing applications.

So when I open Facebook now it isn't having to show the face book splash screen again after I have opened three other applications.

It's the same principal of why task/app killers are bad. You are using more cycles of the cpu to open the app again as opposed to resuming a session. If nothing else this fix has greatly increased the responsiveness of using the spen to write and draw as well as the opening of my recents. I don't think the intent was ever to "clear up more ram"

The fact that in lollipop apps stay in recents after reboot even speaks more to the reasoning that apps occupying ram doesn't equate to apps in the recents screen...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ar2o:
Totally agree! I feel I'll stay with the note 4 for the next 2 years UNLESS the note 5/6 come to a 6 inch screen (not 5.9 inches...) with a removable battery and SD card and of course the spen. That's the only way I'll switch. If not than I'm perfectly content in buying a new note 4 in a years time (selling this of course) and running that as my daily until something new catches my attention. Chances are the hardware on this device is good enough for anyone to be comfortable for the next 1-2 years. Maybe gaming will start pushing it a bit tho but as a daily talk text browse and view pictures and youtube were set I believe :)

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:
Yea man I can't really see the hardware becoming a factor for several years at this point...I agree I'm basically banking on sticking with n4 unless n5 comes thru...it's the first time I'm not banking on a new note...the other issue is idk how locked down the next Gen will be...we've already seen the ramifications of the lp base...if things continue on this track that has me concerned as well as the device itself...bummer is so few other alternatives are even rumored there's not like another second best imo than the n4

Mega

For anyone wondering what I mean about the hw...think how many low and mid range devices run the same apps and games...say at the aarch64 bit conversion they start a bottleneck of refinement and graphical upgrades even then they can only progress so fast so far and still reach "most" devices...Since our n4 is still running up with or faster than the new snapdragon hardware imo even the snapdragon 800 based devices like n3 and tab 8.4 will be beasts for several years

Yes you are correct on that point and I should have clarified.. I have used system monitors too to see exactly what was in ram.. And there was plenty there.. Not aggressively cleaning at all..

But you are right about just straight up in recents.. And as for "others".. I was basically just speaking on this forum and a few others where I haven't seen much at all about this memory issue.. But I guess there could be lots out there..

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] RaymondPJR:
I've been reading that thread since pcriz posted that comment! It's been very exciting to see how it all unfolded! Yes, that problem doesn't exist on our Note because I believe T-Mobile fixed the memory leak in our version of 5.0, why it took so long to get it, AIR. Plus they have a 64 bit system while ours isn't. All that being said, what this tweak can 'supposedly' do for us or others with Sammy phones, is improve multitasking to the point where there are no redraws or reloads when you re-open an app from recents, even after several hours! XDA is reported to open immediately to the last page you were on after leaving it for hours. Chrome is reported to still redraw no matter what, but that's no surprise.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] electech13:
Oh that was for an Exynos model then.. Got it.. Well then in that case it's comparing apples to oranges even if same phone..
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pcriz:
I'm running it on my t-mobile variant and I have noticed how quickly the recents pops up if nothing else. For me it is kind of moot though because of the apps that I hibernate with Greenify. I want to think the response of using the spen to draw and write has improved as well ( wasnt bad to begin with). A few have reported it to also remedy the keyboard lag. Of course with all things YMMV but I did check to make sure there were snap dragon Note 4 users that had tried it as well. Ultimately salvation is a nandroid away if something goes wrong.

Well this will be first time on any of my N4's (stock or rooted/rom'd) that I will have to wipe fresh due to an overall "general slow down".. No fault of the rom mind you ;)

Whether it's a lot of Xposed mods or insane amount of apps or tweaks it's just bogged right down and I can't pin it down to something(s) specific..

Gonna be a clean flash weekend.

Ps. Mega (or whoever here that flashes a LOT), how long on average (in time or wipes/flashes) would you say it takes before the nand emmc memory starts to degrade heavily (noticeable performance slow down) from overwrites? Not saying that is applicable here but just curious.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] megalomanic14:

Well in my case I've had my note 4 since Oct 25th and I've wiped internal 2x since then and odined fresh firmware probably at least a half dozen times if not more.
