I found that Dolby Digital Plus with "Default" activated puts a lot of white noise in the system. Then if you have one of the loud IRS' activated in Viper at the same time the background noise can be so loud you can barely hear the music. I listen to some music that's very mellow and quiet. During the pauses in the sound even the slightest noise can be heard but with Dolby activated it's awful.

I've done a lot of testing this with Viper in the past. I've found what it all boils down to is if you add a lot of volume at the pre-amp level it's going to put hissing in the background. A lot of the IRS' that are available for Viper give a pretty loud volume boost and every one of those add the noise. If you activate "Playback Gain Control" and add any gain at all it adds noise. The graphic EQ with sliders cranked up high can do it too.

I've found the only way to use Viper and keep it quiet is to use IRS' that provide no volume boost at all. I can make music sound awesome with no volume boost using viper. Then when I want it to be louder I crank the volume with the Volume Rocker. Then you're using the amplifier instead of the pre-amp. If you need to add pre-amp volume to make it loud enough in your earphones you'll lose hearing after a while. I know. I used to play in the "Country" band and I worked in sawmills and I have lost a little hearing and my ears ring some.

If you never listen to music that is mellow and quiet this is probably not a problem. But there are a few of us music lovers that appreciate mellow stuff. Don't get me wrong, When the mood strikes me I like to rock out too. Dolby needs to be set up with no added pre-gain. I can't use it.

Can you tell me what e-mail app you included in your rom and possibly where to find a downloadable APK for it? My wife would like to run it on her phone but I cannot find it. Thank you in advance for your help!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Vlip3:
I just installed this ROM and I can confirm Exchange Security Bypass is working w/o having to resort to installing an Xposed module. The default email client however is not the same as what I'm used to on my Note 3 and recently on my Note 4 with Jasmine ROM. The default email client that comes with this ROM looks exactly like the one for Gmail. I was more fond of the other email client but not knowing what that is exactly or where to get it, I decided to try Outlook. Well, I can report that exchange security bypass does NOT work with Outlook. That's fine, I'll continue to use what is working but now I can't uninstall Outlook! When I go to the App Manager, the Uninstall button is greyed out. Anyone have any idea how I can uninstall this? I also would like to uninstall goSMS that was pre-installed on the ROM. That one just has a button for disabling it.

Thank you in advance for your help!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Romans8vs1:
Try going into settings>security>phone administrators. Is Outlook listed as an administrator? If so, uncheck the box and then you should be able to uninstall it.

Edit: by the way, thank you for answering my question. Now I know why the e-mail app looked different.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
Titanium backup should be able to uninstall those pretty easily. I put Root Browser in there not Root Explorer. Root Explorer is a pay app. I just put it in there so you have a good file browser capable of modifying system files. Personally I use Root Explorer.

Go sms I just like to use so I keep it in there so I dont have to redownload everytime Im testing a new version of my ROM.

Its the dolby digital apps raising the volume slightly until you go in and adjust it. You can turn off both if you dont want to adjust or use them. I personally love the dolby atmos app. I also noticed if you install the synapse app from play store it cranks the volume up too .
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
Thanks for mentioning the settings in Synapse. I didn't think of that. I set the headphone gain to -5 in Synapse. It's just about as quiet as I'd like it to be now. The extra separation that Atmos gives is wicked cool. I think maybe that opened things up to where I can get some even cooler sounding stuff. Thanks again man.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
For me it seems Synapse reverts back to being very loud after I reboot and I have to readjust settings. Im not sure what is up with that app. For now I have it unistalled. Just not had enough time to look into it deeper.

Dolby Atmos is great. I cant leave it alone.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gcounts:
I just discovered Dolby atmos today and you're right the tweaking is awesome. The old Dolby I just didn't like the way things sounded as if in a pipe. Thanks balla
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jpmcnown:
Thanks, I adjusted the Dobly apps, and all is well.

Nice, I am a big fan of moving apps to system, for that same reason. I use TBU to remove/restore apps, and one would expect it to be able to remove those, It doesn't though. I'm not a stranger to freezing and/or uninstalling system apps w/TBU, but those 2 in particular, resulted in TBU indicating that the apk could not be found.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
Oh ok I see. I tried deleting them and I get the same thing. I will look into that and get back.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
Are you saying you adjust the headphone gain down then after a reboot it reverts back to default? That didn't happen for me. It stayed where I set it. It seems like there's still a limit to how high I can adjust the EQ in Atmos though. That's ok, it's really a lot better. Now I have something to play with.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
It could just be me because Im testing things and having to revert to a backups when they dont go right. Seemed like it reverted back a few times but it could just be me. Ill play with it again when I get a chance. Just didnt want my speaker blowing out in the mean time.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
They show up by default. Just change default keyboard to google thats it. You can go into settings and choose between 4 different themes all have number rows. Sometime soon Shaftamle is going to offer a google keyboard with number row and longpress accents. Im going to add that one when he gets it done.

How do you get Xposed active, it loaded but says to load manually
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Romans8vs1:
Did you flash this file after flashing the rom? https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952609105
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] downhillvinnie:
i did flash it after the rom, but after the rom loaded and booted up
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] yearn2burn:
That's normal for it to say that. You're there. Try downloading and enabling a module.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
Installing the xposed zip after letting the rom bootup is not a good way of doing it. You just turned a 5-10min process into a 20-25min process.

Xposed will show in red "Installation is only possible manually via recovery" but if you notice the app_process will show a version of 61 and xposdedbridge.jar will show a 64. If those numbers are showing you are good to go.

Is there a way to enable all apps to be placed on the multi-window slide-out? Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Vlip3:
Has anyone had trouble with Microsoft Office Mobile? I installed it on Jasmine ROM and it worked perfectly but on this ROM it FCs as soon as I launch it. I've tried uninstalling/re-installing but I get the same behavior, FC immediately upon launch.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
I get the same thing. I will look into it
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
I think you can enable those with gravity box xposed module. Not sure if thats a working feature yet though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
Posted up a new version. I havent tested this exact version but one very close. It should all work fine but I put it as a beta until I get to test it fully. This version you can delete all system files with titanium backup or whatever app of your choice.

I'm surprised at the lack of posts....21 downloads of 3.4.1 and nobody comments on the awesomeness of the ROM or praises the dev? Strange.

I downloaded it last night. It is everything that I like:

Love dark themes

Using gravity box, exposed Torch, greenfiny

no FC's

Smooth, snappy, love the android LP boot animation and fast spin wait.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] yearn2burn:
Just curious, but since this is basically a mildly modified stock ROM, what causes these little bugs to show up? Is it something about the deodexing process?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
Deodexing did cause some issues but the rest is just me learning as I go. This being my first ROM build and trying to learn as much as possible about everything. I may tweak one small thing and it affects 2 others in a major way.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gcounts:
I'm with you! Love the dark theme too. And I load it up with some tbo black apps....perfection. And balla updates so often too.

Is anyone having trouble with apps disappearing from the multi-window bar? I know for a fact that "My Files" was there two days ago, went to use it just now and it is no longer there. I clicked on Edit but it does not appear on the list of apps that can be added.

Also, what happened to blocking mode? Before this phone and this ROM, blocking mode could be scheduled to come on at certain times. I confirmed this by doing a Google search for the Note 4 and found instructions on how to set it that look just like what I'm used to but on this ROM all I can find is "Call/Message Block" but that has to be turned on and off manually and independently for calls and messages and says nothing about notifications. I used to set my phone to go into blocking mode at my bedtime so I wouldn't be bothered (mainly by notifications). Is this something that was removed in LP?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
It's under sound and notification. It says do not disturb. There is also a quick toggle to turn it on and off quickly.

For anyone that feels the need I did add a donate button to the op. Not expected but definitely appreciated.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Vlip3:
Thanks! Boy, I looked everywhere (or so I thought). What about the issue with the mult-window bar?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
I'm not really sure on that. I personally don't use it so I've not seen the problem. How many times has it happened.? I know I mess things like that up while the phone is in my pocket and it presses different buttons.

If I can figure out a way to add any app of my choosing to the multi-window bar, this ROM would be perfect! Has anyone done that successfully? If so, can you share how you did it? Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
Here you go. Already tested it and it works. Just install it, activate module in xposed, reboot. When you longpress back button to open multiwindow and click edit to add more apps to the drawer just click RESET instead of trying to drag individual apps. You get a force close otherwise. But all else seems to be working fine. This is the only version I could find that actually works.

Anybody experiencing S Note closing when expanding sticky notes?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
Please explain in more detail how to recreate the problem. thanks

I ran through a few things that seemed like what you are talking about and get no force close.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Poloasis:
When I open S Note, after the Samsung account Sync, I have multiple sticky notes, one I click to expand them where I can scroll thru them, S note apps closes, it doesn't seems to FC just closes. Every other notes in the apps works except the yellow stickies.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
A few days ago I thought I'd try dirty flashing 3.2. I thought it would be a good idea to wipe cache and dalvik. I got a lot of FC's and Google Play errors after. First question is: Did wiping the caches mess it up?

Then I wiped everything and clean flashed it. Ever since then every time I try to flash either 3.2 or 3.4 Set-up Wizard force closes. It works right when I odin DevEd_OAF_Update.tar. But I just re-did 3.4 and it FC'd again. I know how to set up a phone without it but it's a pain. Especially re-installing all my apps. Does Set-up Wizard crash for anyone else?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gcounts:
I did a clean install and the wizard worked fine. I dirty flashed once and had all kinds of troubles including app updates nor sticking, so I clean flash every time now. No fc's or weird behavior.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
Yeah that was like the first time I dirty flashed. The thing is, I've clean flashed 3 times now and it still FC's every time. Even after clean flashing the DevEd OAF tar. It's not a real problem but something is wrong with my setup. I don't plan to keep trying to fix it as long as everything else keeps working good. I just thought I'd bring it up in case it happens to someone else.

Clean flashed 3.4.1 this morning and the set up wizard FC on me also no biggie just took a little longer to set up. Everything running great and love the dark blue dialer and toggles themes. Cannot seem to find the S6 weather widget though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
Ahaa. So I'm not alone. Maybe it's not something I screwed up.

Update: That Weather Widget probably only works on the TW Launcher.

Setup Wizard crashes on me from a clean install too. When flashing a mod on a restart it optimizes all 244 apps. Is anybody else experiencing this? I do not remember it doing that in previous versions. Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
I've had it optimize apps after flashing the dark toggles. But it didn't do it this time. I wonder what's up with that. Oh well, it seems to be working a little better this time.

I always skip that part and reload apps with ti backup. Im working on a new version and will under protest use setup wizard. :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
It would probably be best to flash all of the files at one once to save time. Instead of letting ROM load and then flashing themes. Also make sure you dont wipe cache or it will optimize most apps again.

What im going to start doing is when I put up a new version I will also add a flashable zip to add new features from new ROM version to your existing ROM. Pretty much it will keep you from having to flash a fresh copy of ROM everytime I post an updated version.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
Just added a new section to OP. Its listed as Updates. Please only flash over existing ROM and do not wipe cache. Some updates I post may cause apps to optimize on reboot. I will post full ROM after it is tested further. I will still post changelogs in second post for updates.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] balla48801:
It seems that the new email client I added to bypass exchange security is causing the force close issue with setup wizard. According to my couple of minutes looking over logcat. I will try to fix it if I can. Right now I think exchange security bypass outweighs setup wizard.

I missed the part where you said the email app was causing the FC's. Actually I got very much out of the habit of using TiBU. A while back it was messing up when people tried to restore. I just developed the habit of restoring apps with Setup Wizard. So TiBU is doing OK now right?

Update: Oh. Even more new stuff I missed. I guess that'll teach me not to sleep instead of staying up with what's going on here. LOL :D How silly of me.

I really love the way you stay on top of what's going on with this rom [MENTION=1111520]balla48801[/MENTION]. On some other roms I've used we wouldn't hear anything at all from the developer for days on end. This is way cool.

Update 2: Hmmm. I just found out the emojis from SwiftKey don't get posted. I wonder if that's because of the XDA Free app or the forum. I can't use any other keyboard. I started using it back when it was a paid app. Knowing how cool it is I'd gladly pay for it if I hadn't already years ago. It's free now though.

Was there an answer to the S Note close issue? I looked through the thread but only saw a request for more detail but no answer. I just encountered the same problem. All notes are fine, but when I try to open a note created in Action memo (Sticky Note), S Note closes. Like the other user said, it does not appear to be FC because you don't get the pop-up message.

---------- Post added at 11:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:55 AM ----------

One more question (or set of questions). Before I flash the update, I'd like to know what the differences are between the stock N4 lockscreen and S-Health and the S6 versions of those apps. Also, what is the optical reader? Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
About the Action Memo issue, if you tap the memo the app shuts off. But if you slide it down that opens it up at the top of the screen. There you can tap it to select it then when it opens you can work with it. It puts all of the memos you save there. I have several saved there.

At the bottom of the memo there's an S-Note icon. Tap that and it will turn it into an S-Note memo. Save it and rename it. Then go back to the Action Memos. Call up the one you saved, clear it, save it and it deletes it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Vlip3:
How do I delete it? If I long-press a regular S Note, a checkbox appears next to each note so I can select the ones I want to delete and a trashcan appears at the top but the Action Memos do not have a checkbox and are greyed out.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
I just finished updating my other post with more directions including how to delete it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Vlip3:
That just saves a copy of the action memo as an S Note. I can then delete the S Note copy but the original action memo remains and cannot be deleted. This just seems buggy. It doesn't seem like this is how it is supposed to function, or is it?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
Call up the Action Memo. Tap the eraser at the top. Tap clear all. Then tap the save button. It will delete.
