I agree with this as well, right now Kingroot is the way to go, Supersu at this point is not stable and for running root apps such as xposed.

Kingroot is just fine, Im over 24hrs here as well with 100% stability with multiple xposed modules running.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Jasonguyyeah:
Method that had helped stop auto restart and root success

I'm a little late to the party but tried kingroot after downgrading to kitkat 4.4.4. But ran into failed rooting, so I tried doing a forced stop of google play service, Knox notification manager and Knox wizard client. I would get notifications from Google about wanting to scan system for security but tapped deny and I was able to get temp root successfully. The change isn't permanent and setting Google play to prompt before running with kinguser seemed to stop the auto reboots. But I used system app safe remover for everything else because I could temp delete Knox and it listed more apps and actually removed non-system apps, I was able to uninstall 66 apps so far. I'm not sure how many are permanently removed but, if I reboot Google play will reinstall the bloatware until I kill the service.

So far kinguser does a good job of keeping apps from loading into cache and auto starting. Purify has been able to clear out the cache, ram and Block apps.

On 5.0.2 I use to set at 2.5gb after a factory reset and 2+gb ram used after turning off and force stopped apps, I now sit and set at about 1.09 to 1.23gb ram at idle.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] dmxoneIuv:
Would using one of these methods for temp root able you to change system files using a root Explorer? For example, I would like to replace the bootscreen animation and obviously it would lose root after rebooting but would those files stay as the replaced boot animation after rebooting and losing root?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Jasonguyyeah:
With a locked boot loader, probably not. After a reboot, my system apps reappear untouched. I'd guess the only changes done would only be in the ram for locked files.

I think google may be the culprit, my phone would restart every so often with pop ups from google play for security scanning of the system. But if I turn off/force stop google play and services. I can temp uninstall as many system apps without a reboot however, as soon as I turn google play and services on, my phone reboots and bloatware gets reinstalled. Also, if google services is off, the rooting seems really quick, even leaving knox alone.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] michaelJoseph:
Does not work on retail version of note 4.

Gives you all the fuss like its working, even a little blue check mark at the end but then NOTHING. Wait for the real root like the rest of us suckers who bought the retail
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] dedemike0421:
Maybe been asked aone thousand times but after temp root will survival mode save root.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Jasonguyyeah:
Google has too much control of the phone. I unistalled or forced stopped google and it's still blocking kingroot from running or reinstalling, even though untrusted sources is checked. This will be the last samsung phone I'll ever buy, if I wanted to pay $700 for advertisement, I would have gotten a iphone.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] wanb1i:
In reality, it's Verizon that's blocking your access to root & locking up the bootloader, not Google or Samsung. If you look, you'll notice that other carriers don't do this (except AT&T & VZW) .
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Jaytronics:
?Nipple!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jr_718:
Agreed..give the people what they want and they will love you for it..but take it away from them they will hate you..copy that Verizon
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Jaytronics:
Only one problem, we are a major minority. Verizon could care less about what we want. Truthfuly, they could care less about what is actually best for any one. They want only one thing a big for profit corporation wants. And that is money. Now, if somehow the general population was informed and was persuaded to see how beneficial it can actually be to the full control over your own device Then, and only then might Verizon be persuaded to concede to us minorities here. But, I. The battle to persuade the general public, Verizon would fight back and well, they have more revenue than all of us combined. So, it is pretty much tough crap for us. Verizon is a ***** and sucks for certain reasons.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] pkopalek:
I've been following these Note 4 threads for a very long time, hoping to find my next phone. I'm a Note 2 guy, and love the size and stylus. I use my 9300mAh ZeroLemon, and I run it hard.

If I can't make a Note 4 or Note 5 do at least what my Note 2 does, I really don't have a case for upgrading my old, beat up phone.

I'm really getting tired of Verizon's locked down phones. All I want is a big screen, a removable battery, and root access. If I'm buying a phone, it's mine, and I should be able to be an administrator. It's really unfortunate that they can walk all over us the way that they do.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Jasonguyyeah:
ehh...tried to go to t mobile

I tried to get away from verizon but after being at t mobile several times 2-3 hours at a time, they kept pulling up really old records... told me I need to go fix it....long story. So back to verizon, I thought I'd give kingroot 4.5 a try on kitkat 4.4.4, so far it's worked really well and very fast at rooting. After root I use safe uninstaller to kill SDM (OTA updates), knox and 83 other apps.

I haven't had any reboots, NFC and hotspot works, cleared up 1 gb of ram so I'm usually around 1.15 gb used ram after using purify. Although this is a temp root, it's also kinda nice that it wouldn't void my warranty ie tripping knox and fast pay works and mobile hotspot works; so when it's time to sell/trade in the phone, I can just reboot and remove kingroot. Last time I rooted my old note 2, fast pay stopped working.

Oh, also temp-root worked well only after I had left then came back to verizon....and they gave incentives to come back.

Has anyone else had luck with 4.5 on there note 4?

My solution to making my almost 3 year-old, unlocked bootloader, custom ROM note 2 look brand new again:

http://www.amazon.com/Verizon-Samsung-SCH-i605-Housing-Replacement/dp/B00AXAYDP0

Yes I don't have a metal chassis and that's great for replacement. Note 3 and 4 screens make me drool but with Foxfi on the fritz I ain't giving up root nor bootloader unlock for anything!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] dpoverlord:
So is there actually root now?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] scottsdca:
Nothing yet. I'm still holding out hope. Not sure if I should do the OTA or stay where I'm at. Some are saying no one's working on it, but I think somebody is with the bounty that they're offering.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Jaytronics:
The question that people fail to ask is. Does the phone or tablet do what you want? And more importantly, what you need? Or does the update offer you something so enticing that you need to take it? If not, stay put. And if an official statement is made that they are no longer working on it in the development community. Then well, take the update. As far as I am concerned, the update offers me nothing worthwhile at all. This phone does as is needed for a device that can not hold Root. But, when I temp Root, I can Titanium Backup everything for the just in case. Whereas, correct me if I am wrong. There is not even temp Root on the update. So, you most likely should stay on 2hat it is that you have. Just saying.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] scottsdca:
True. For the most part, the phone does what I need. Foxfi tether works. The apps I would use if I had root are advanced signal status to force LTE and there are a couple xposed modules that would be nice. I guess I'll just wait and see.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] refuse2bstopped:
So can anyone tell me where to purchase the developer version? At this point I'm pretty much done buying the contract devices. From now on I will sacrifice and buy the developer version of my phones or go with the non branded options via htc, google play, nexus devices etc and let Verizon spend the next few years begging me to take one of their upgrades in fear that being on a non contract device I could leave at any time like they did before. I wish I could give them the big FU but the only other provider reliable enough to consider (service availability-wise) is AT&T who has similar issues.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] TKTAB911:
Swappa may hold a gem or two, otherwise it seems those lucky enough to have picked up a Dev Edition when they had the chance - took it.

EBuy may have a few as well, though I'm never trusting and very skeptical of when I get electronics off there. Thoroughly, thoroughly test whatever you buy.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] scottsdca:
They are pricey. Just saw one for $850 and another for $910. I guess it would be better to get a nexus 6P?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] TKTAB911:
Nexus 6 has my vote.

Unfortunately I'm busy with the gamesaves I have already on my Note 4 and don't care to gamble losing anything when I'm a couple hours away from getting all them achievements in google play to change devices, but one more weekend and that'll be done and done.

Eyeballing the Nexus 6 myself, but with some holiday specials coming around the corner I'll wait. Had this phone for a few months now and for what it is I love it, though the lack of root and my boredom at work to want to customize things - has me maxing the storage out on games continually. Rough life I know.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] satseaker:
Why is everybody saying foxfi isn't working, mine works just fine.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] tbparkey:
Same here. Works flawlessly on latest update.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] dsteinschneider:
My Note 2 running Alliance Rom 32 can't past the first logo. I haven't made any changes to the phone in months, its battery ran down last night and now this. I used Odin to flash back to MJ9 where I started with Casual but it still won't go into recovery.

I guess I'm forced to buy a new phone - did you make any headway in picking out a replacement since the above post?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] pkopalek:
I have had Samsungs for quite a while, personally (even the dreaded Fascinate). But I finally went with the LG G4. I got a (basically) mint condition one on Swappa.com for $400. (I'm on Verizon unlimited data still, so I can't buy discounted phones, and I don't want to use the Best Buy trick).

The only wish I had for the G4 is that it had a stylus, and the 810 Snapdragon instead of 808. But its memory management is superb, the battery is replaceable, the screen is GORGEOUS, I love double-tapping to wake it up (and double-tapping the status bar to put it to sleep), and rooting it was no big deal (no ROMs, but pretty straightforward to root and get my tethering and XPosed going).

The camera is what really blows me away. The f/1.8 lens is objectively the best camera of any Android, and almost any phone (there were some Nokia lumias with better lenses, but they were Windows Phones, so whatever). Anyway, I love the G4 and I wouldn't give it up. Never looking back to the Note series (without legit root or removable media or battery).

The LG V10 is coming and would be a good choice too, but I think this G4 will keep me happy for quite a while.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] dsteinschneider:
Really appreciate quick response. I was once killing time in a Verizon store and spent some time with the G4 and really liked it. I'm on a spare S4 for now so I'll shop G4's like you did and see if I can find a deal on one. I would enjoy a better camera. I just need root so the G4 fits the bill.

(Edit) Just looked at V10 - looks promising. Does LG not lock their bootloaders? Is there a chance the V10 might be locked?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] pkopalek:
The bootloader is definitely locked, so there aren't ROMs for it. That's been the going rate for new non-Nexus phones these days (but I need a removable battery/memory!).

So I rooted, use XPosed to modify whatever I want, and set up tether (etc). Phone works really great. Not much bloatware anyway to fight with.

Marshmallow 6.0 coming out will be interesting to see... will it be something rooted users can upgrade to, then root again? Will the security holes be patched? Will someone crack the bootloader? No idea yet, so the future is uncertain.

It's so frustrating these days, just looking for a new phone that can be rooted and ROM'd. It's really sad.

So I'm sure the V10 will have a locked bootloader too. If the Note 4 had permanent root, that would have been my choice. More people developing on it (as in this thread). But G4 community is solid, and a guy already wrote a dedicated XPosed module to modify things specific to the G4. Great phone, IMO.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] migualeto:
I think I may switch my verizon note 4 T-Mobile do I can root my phone. Want to buy my Note 4
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] dsteinschneider:
Thanks again for your advice. I just bought the LG G4 for $442 from Verizon. They had a $100 off promo code. I also went with the payment play so it's two years at $18/month. They took $25/month off as I'm no longer doing the two year subsidized phone thing. Another long time Samsung fan leaves the pack.

My primary use of the stylus was for handwritten notes - the kind you have to take quickly. Going forward I will use OneNote and my finger for that - or a pen and paper and then "scan" it with OneNote.

Nay ideas how can i fill 64GB ? I am not a heavy user :( :D :D
[Xperia Z3 General] abhinav.tella:
Almost all cards these days are UHS-I and phones have been supporting them for a few years now.

UHS-I (min 10 MB/s sustained) get a good card like like the Sandisk Extreme UHS-I/U3 (Min 30 MB/s) or Samsung Pro or Lexar (aka Crucial/Micron) for 4K video without any issues. The very cheap ones generally use low quality TLC NAND vs MLC which lasts longer in higher end cards.

Dalvik tweaks you applied

in this rom i found that you have used these lines in build.prop

dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit=122m

dalvik.vm.heapsize=122m

well i read it somewhere that the heap growth limit should be half of the heapsize......

it is unstable to keep the limit same as the heapsize.

so was just wondering if these tweaks that you applied.......are these ok and stable???

It's been a while since I posted to the forum and I apologise if this question has already been asked.

I have an MDA Vario II with a T Mobile web&walk 3G internet connection.

My question:

My notebook PC has wireless networking, is it possible for me to wirelessly connect my notebook to the internet using the 3G connection on my MDA Vario II?

Cheers

Yes...

Asking a question you havn't bothered to search for isn't excused by appologising for not searching at the beggining of the question... its only marginly less anoying.

google: your question

or

should help you out.

package

I joined as a business user when I bought my MDAIII and when I upgraded to the MDA Vario 2 I managed to get the flext 20 package (£34 allowance for calls and texts) with unlimited usage and web n walk pro enabling me to use anything I want as much as I want for as long as I want and I pay £25.49 per month. I can use skype (although I rarely use the chat and never use it for actual calls as no one I know uses it anyway).

I found the rick was that they mucked things up for me so many times when I switched contracts that each time they gave me a discount. I dont think I am getting that good a deal now but at the time it wasnt bad.

I do use my MDA as a mode for my very small JVC laptop quite reguarly and its very good. I have only been unable to do it once and that was near wrexam :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] patp:
Um, isn't the answer to this that you can't do it using the Wifi, but you can using Bluetooth or USB.

With BT is was reasonably easy in WM5, in WM6 you need a laptop BT stack which implements BT PAN properly (mine doesn't) so I just wire them together.

USB is considerably faster - I get 850kbs in London.

As for it being against the T&Cs of basic WnW, a lot of people seem to get away with it once in a while, but hammering it with big downloads is bound to get you a slap.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] datasafe:
Does your JVC connect to the modem in the MDAIII wirelessly?

Can you briefly explain what I need to achieve this?

Thanks

John
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] datasafe:
Thanks Patp

If wired, I understand Activesync must not be running but do I need other software & is it difficult to setup?

Cheers
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] patp:
If you have flashed a WM6 rom it's a doddle, you just run Intenet Sharing on the handset and tell it to use USB, hit connect and it disconnects Activesync automatically and sets up a network access point on the laptop. For a minute I thought I'd accidently picked up a mac, it "just works".

In WM5 it's a right old pain, you have to set up a dial-up account for the handset, tell it to dial something (?) and run the modem program on the handset. I'd upgrade if you haven't done so already, it's one of the big pluses of WM6.
