Pretty good here too. Only one force close on the keyboard. Display looks sharper. Battery life is better it seems. And lte signal is way stronger.

One thing is it won't let me disable Tmobile my account.. anybody know why? Everything else I wanted to disable went through.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] EdWood110:
So far all perfect. I used Kies to update my Note 4. I noticed Kies mentioned the update being 1.4 GB or at least a lot bigger than the T-Mobile over the air update.

Anyway, everything runs perfectly smooth, good battery life, I do love the new unlocking feature from Lollipop... all in all no problems at all so far.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] tbgreen89:
How did you disable Tmobile My Account? Mines grayed out and won't let me. Everything else disabled just fine.

Samsung account backup for S Notes, never worked right for me

If you install Evernote, you can change backup to it in S Note app. Works perfectly.

Did this update bring quick reply on lock screen for messenger?

Kind of like Google messenger, but for our Stock mms.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Face_Plant:
Are you talking about the thing where you double tap on the notification to go to it? If so, then no. You have to touch it once then swipe the screen.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] ThC23:
No, I'm talking about being able to reply to your text without even unlocking your phone. Straight from the lock screen. Without swiping to get into mms

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] jazzmachine:
I don't even know what to think... You've all heard the "rumor" that an S6 Edge owner received a 5.1.1 OTA (I think) just two or three days days after our update arrived? (If not, you have now ;) )

Well, I just paid a visit to the T-Mobile S6 Edge forum to see what was up, and confirmed it. 5.1.1 does "exist" for the S6 Edge and a flashable system dump was uploaded. Apparently there are some sort of "shenanigans" going on with the bootloader... I only spent a few minutes skimming through the thread(s), but my interpretation is that it is... "soft-locked"(?) (read something about it being possible to flash the older bootloader over the new one).

I can't really say that I "care" particularly... in a practical sense, but can't help but feel a bit "irked" solely based on principal. We were all wondering why it took so long for T-mobile to push the N4 update; in my view, the existence of 5.1.1 for the T-mobile S6 Edge is fairly strong "evidence", upon which one can speculate...

Please don't derail this thread due to this info and keep discussing the N4 update :). I was pretty hesitant to post this and only did so because (IMO at least) it's pretty relevant. Particularly the bootloader deal...

Edit: Bootloader clarificantion from the source.

Lollipop observations,

*Seems to stick on 4G for a long time before switching to LTE

*Very smooth and speedy

*Uses tons of battery

*Its very ugly, had to switch to textra for sms/mms

*unable to disable some apps that were could be disabled in kit kat

*Very stable, have had no lock ups or re-boots.

I will say even tho I am a lollipoop hater I tested and decided to stay. Great speed even better battery life. Faster ? taking pic. Speed. A few hiccups in apps. That is the app developers issue tho. Working good. Just could use a faux kernel.

Lol I would guess so,I get about half that if I'm lucky,when I'm using phone,(keep brightness a little over half )it drops a percent every 3 minutes.If I don't use phone it doesn't really use battery tho.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pierrekid:
Also he could be in power saver mode. Simply posting these screens means nothing. So many "ways" to get great battery life, but no way he gets that on under normal circumstances. 4 hours on screen time with more than half of your battery left? Yea no
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] BACARDILIMON:
Screen brightness set to auto. I have always gotten more than 4 hours. Normally 7.5. Now I just rocking stock deodex. Rapture is great. It slightly modded but not a bunch. It runs like butter

All I can say is the few who have battery life should try to wipe everything as in everything. No back ups. Make pretend I stole ur ? all ur stuff gone. Start over. It what I did and I love it so far. Not everyone gonna have same results. Not every ? is made the same.

I Odin flashed rom, cf autoroot, and twrp today. After the rom I went into stocky recovery and factory reset, then rooted and flashed twrp. It's been very smooth since with no issues. Curious to see battery life, but had been plenty on previous 5.0 builds.

Is there a way to make the little teeny tiny notification bar on the lock screen bigger? It's so small and thing and it's hard to tell what icons are in there from a glance. That's really the only thing I have a problem with.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] donnyp1:
After running the other builds, I tried them all, I knew 5.0 would be an upgrade over kk. I'm going to stay stock rooted for a bit before I flash a rom. Factory reset thru stock recovery is definitely the way to go though. It's very smooth with no issues.

Like it but battery is far from what I was getting on kitkat. Need xposed and unlimited tethering. So back to Kitkat i go until those things ever come about.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] crashnova:
A few random reboots after updating via kies and then rooting. and then on one on tekhd's rom. Other than that it's cool...for now.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] note4 guy:
Does new update lets third party apps save on the sd card or it's still read only access ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] OuncE718:
Yes sir, "Move to SD Card" is an option as shown in the attached pic below.

After reading the new roms instructions about some even having you have to flash Stock via Odin AGAIN. I ain't digging that at all. But stock is getting rather annoying.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] BACARDILIMON:
If you want pure clean rom no issues then forget what you know. Do as dev asks and trust me you will be greatful .if u back up apk or data ur gonna have issues. I had my one app that I caught had deodex files odex files and art file. App had issues. Wiped my internal and man no regrets. Back from note 2 days a dev told me to start fresh when operating system changes. The man has never steered me wrong. That just my 2 cents.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] note4 guy:
Thank you for the reply, I knew we can move apps to SD card . But I installed camera zoom it wouldn't save pictures on sd card. It still says cannot save pictures on sd have to save on the phone memory . But you use stock camera app ,pictures are getting saved on sd card . I don't think there party app still can save files on to SD card.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Cheeseraid:
Works well but I've had all kinds of issues with GPS and WiFi calling. They work when they want to. I got so lost in Knoxville TN earlier thanks to this pos device. I had to resort to my wife's iPhone. I have to switch airplane mode on and off to get WiFi calling to work. Tried all kinds of stuff even factory resetting. Battery life is slightly worse especially listening to music. Cell network hangs on 4g forever before switching to LTE. Looks nice though lol
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Longshark:
My reason for waiting. Hopefully before the year runs out....
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] square85:
Everything has been good for me with Lollipop except now my WiFi calling works inconsistently. I get a Reg99 error or it gets stuck on enabling and becomes greyed out. Doesn't matter the WiFi network that I'm on either whether it is my house, work or somewhere else.

Everything worked flawlessly when I had KitKat.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] vlad2277:
Did you use new SIM card that came with note 4?

Or your previous old one?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] square85:
It's a new one; my previous phone was an iPhone 5S and the sim cards were incompatible.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] vlad2277:
I've had same error with previous phone, old sim, then replaced sim card, all fixed.

I would suggest calling T-Mobile tech support, not customer service. They might help, or get you a free sim replacement in any local store.

If not, can try factory reset.

If it won't work after, then need to replace phone.

It's definitely not lollipop bug, I've used wifi calling a lot, before and after lollipop, and it works really well.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] BACARDILIMON:
Sounds like u have some crossed info or you restored data from a kit kat rom. Wipe and start from scratch

BAD ASS NOTE 4
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] square85:
Thanks. I'm going to to go into a tmobile store today and swap out for a new sim card. If i still have issues, I'll do a factory reset on my note.

Ok I am a betting man. That code will not get fixed with new sim. let me know how u make out

Phone runs hot under Android L
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] duraaraa:
For me, it's been somewhat miserable.

I used to have a T-Mobile Note 4 when it had first come out at the end of last year, and I was too bothered by the various Touchwiz bugginess and lagginess to keep it. But the one thing I did like about it was that its standby battery drain was really, really good. Maybe 0.3% per hour.

I had an Xperia Z3 compact, and with the lollipop update, it was amazing. I decided to get another Note 4 now that lollipop has become available. Unfortunately, the phone is much, much slower than I thought it would be... I don't know if it's memory management or something else but it lags for apparently no reason very often, which drove me crazy. Also, the standby battery life has been much worse than it was on my old Note 4 -- lowest drain I've seen is 1% per hour.

I ended up putting CyanogenMod on it because of the lagginess with TouchWiz. Now, the performance is great, but it's missing all of the features I got the phone for in the first place, like VoLTE, Wifi Calling, etc. Plus, the standby battery drain is still not very good.

Hopefully some kind of update will come out to fix TouchWiz and I can be happy with it in the future, but I guess we'll have to see.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] _-..zKiLLA..-_:
Ive been enjoying it a lot. Everything is insanely smooth. I really love the new animations. I'm wishing I could lower my DPI but I've been dealing with stock just cause I don't wanna wait any longer to have lollipop. At first battery life was poor but I let it settle for a few days and now I have almost the battery life I was getting on stock kk and it can only get better with new kernels and stuff being made. Once aosp can fix the screen wake lag then i will probably be on aosp daily.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] nosympathy:
Seems to be great for me battery wise. Took a couple days to settle.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] donnyp1:
I'm getting around the same after letting it settle for a few days. I odin'd the lollipop rom, went to stock recovery and did factory reset, ran cf autoroot, then installed twrp and have had absolutely zero issues.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] nosympathy:
I did the same originally. Then flashed a ROM and still not having any issues after that settled.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] square85:
So I did a factory reset yesterday and went into T-Mobile today to get a new Sim card. I guess my next step is too call tech support since it still gets stuck on enabling and is greyed out.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] vlad2277:
Yes, that's unfortunate, but what you already did was needed.

Tech support would have advised to try both reset and sim replacement after failing to resolve your problem.

My guess it's not lollipop related, since I can truthfully say, I don't have wifi calling errors.

If you eligible for guarantee replacement, at this point I would back up everything and ask tech support for that.

Just be straight and to the point, don't go calling T-Mobile and tell them maybe...

Just call, explain problem, what you already tried as solution and nicely ☺, demand to get replacement device.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] square85:
I'd rather go back to KitKat because I didn't have any problems until I upgraded to Lollipop.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] vlad2277:
Well WiFi calling is definitely not broken in Lollipop.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Cheeseraid:
Your not the only one with WiFi calling issues. I have reset and started from fresh twice trying to fix it. New Sim from the T-Mobile store. Calling tech support and they advised to reset the phone again. Well from what I have noticed the only way to get it working is to turn airplane mode on and then off or restart the phone. If I turn WiFi off to look at 9gag the chive or buzzfeed at work, it will not work till I restart the phone. Airplane mode trick won't work. Really don't get it. Still having problems with the GPS. Works when it wants to.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] MN_Wild:
Yesterday all the text messages I sent over WIFI calling arrived to the recipients 10 hours late. For them it was 4AM this morning. I have some angry friends and family. This update is broken. I tried to reset the phone from recovery mode and it still is no good. Thinking about rooting and going back to 4.4
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pierrekid:
Wiping the cache partition makes a HUGE difference. Almost instant change in battery. I basically took an hour did what I normally do on my phone( after a quick restart) and saw a 21% decrease in battery. After wiping cache and doing exactly the same thing, 8% decrease. Now I can officially say this is a good update.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] bipoler:
Why are they angry? Seems immature, if people don't want to be interrupted by a text, wait a second what type of sleep lol I RARELY hear a phone call let alone a ding text message, when I'm sleep I am sleep. It's only been a few emergency situations where a phone call woke me up out of my sleep. .......and that was more divine intervention - they shouldn't be angry the text came through @ 4am...That's silly

After the update I'm noticing when I dial a number on the dial pad and press the call button, it looks like its going to dial but comes back to a cleared dial pad screen.

I have to sometime dial the number multiple times until it goes through.

I wonder how many who are having problems didn't do a full clean install or factory reset. I'm seeing none of these issues

Just because you are a heavy sleeper does not mean everyone else sleeps like you. Everyone sleeps differently and I totally understand how a text message notification sound could wake someone up in the middle of the night. I am a light sleeper and do wake up when I get a notification sound in the middle of the night. Some people use high pitched sounds for their notification sound. Your comment seems immature, silly and irrational.

Since updating to LP I am having the delayed message issue with and without wifi.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] thegreatone3:
I had big time battery drain issues after I took the OTA update. I would go to bed at 100% charge and wake up with around 50%. Did a factory reset and all is well. Battery is now as good or better than before.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] racer83l:
My phone has been good up until today. The day after I updated to lollipop I wiped the phone and started fresh. The phone was fantastic. Now today, I cannot send or receive mms while WiFi is turned on, if someone calls me while WiFi calling is on it goes straight to voicemail. and tonight while away from home, connected to LTE everytime I tried to call someone or they called my phone it would reboot straight away. I wiped cache in recovery and no change. The phone is almost unusable.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] donnyp1:
I stopped a few Samsung services. Remote, beam, and push, and my battery life improved 10 fold. I don't use any of those, so it was no big deal. They were always running though. Just throwing it out there.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pierrekid:
Go back to lollipop. Clean install and wipe cache. From your screen your only getting around 3-4 hours on screen time. About the same on lollipop.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] note4 guy:
Same thing here and I did factory reset after lollipop update . Did you find any solution yet ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] BableMan:
Anyone else having wifi fail? After about three hours of sitting the phone loses wifi and won't find any networks until I restart. Does it on all wifi networks in 2-4 hours, Stock, rooted, completely clean install.

Yeah, I am going to let my battery do a complete drain and then recharge it a few times to get it set.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] MN_Wild:
A few new observations.

*battery usage says WiFi has been on all day but it is turned off.

*WiFi calling is mediocre at best

*unable to get lte in several places where I used to have a reliable lte connection

*factory reset and micro SD format didn't clear up any bugs or restore battery life

*camera seems much better in lollipop

*I want the 4.4kk radio back

*5.01 is still terribly ugly.

My phone is not rooted, factory room, only app added is textra. Is there an app list for 5.01 of safe to disable? I need battery life back.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] ws2112:
I've also observed the same behaviors on my phone. I disabled almost all of the apps that they allow us to disable on stock rom and battery life doesn't seem to improve much. One thing I've noticed is that we can no longer disable the my t-mobile app like in kk. And that thing just sucks.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] MN_Wild:
You can disable the tmo junk from the app screen. Just hit the dots on the top, select freeze / disable and the tmo stuff is able to be shut off. It won't work from the app manager screen. Hope I'm being clear enough that you can follow. I don't know the technical screen names.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] ws2112:
already done that. but if you go into the app manager you'll see that my t-mobile is still running in the background unless you manually kill it off.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] square85:
I too have noticed some of these issues; especially the WiFi calling issue. The phone will get stuck on enabling or will throw a REG99 or ER082 error when everything worked flawlessly with KitKat. I called T-Mobile tech support yesterday was told it's a known issue and that there is no date to fix it

I use WiFi calling at work as my office is in a very old building. It gets annoying that everytime I walk out of my office and into another part of the building that has service that my phone is unable to reconnect to WiFi calling without issue. The only thing that seems to work is a reboot and then the phone connects almost instantly for WiFi calling.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] note4 guy:
Any one have issue saving pictures or files on to sd card using third party apps ? Kitkat wouldn't let third party apps to save on SD card . I though it was fixed with lollipop update ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] vlad2277:
It wasn't broken

It's security restrictions that were set by Google.

And NO, all still the same, 3rd party apps can't save directly to SD card.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] arjun90:
Mobile Data seems to drain the battery faster in Lollipop compared to KitKat, as per my Battery activity in settings. Android System usage is also a bit high, and the there seems to be cellular network activity even though not much calling throughout the day.

Also, every time I restart the device, Location is automatically enabled, and WiFi sometimes tends to turn on by itself; not sure if this is a software bug or T-Mobile trying to persuade us to purchase an S6, haha.
