My Note 4 is slower than a crawl when I'm connected to wifi. Simple Facebook and Twitter refreshes hang for 5 minutes or more on wifi, but are quick like lightning on Verizon network. I'm thinking that it is not my router as the phone behaves the same way on other wifi networks.

Anyone having this issue and/or have a fix?

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hamra:
I have the same issue. Sometimes, for no obvious reason, the ping to my router becomes 10 seconds. Turning wifi off and on doesn't help it.

But here's what does help: turn flight mode on for 5 seconds then switch it off.

WiFi works like a charm, until the bug happens again after few hours or few days..
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slamorte:
Thanks for the tip Hamra. That seemed to work temporarily - will continue to look for a permanent fix.

Anybody done it yet?

Sent from my SM-N910T
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] ThePagel:
What would be the point of doing this? Most of these chips have a one time manufacturer programing that only allow x,y or z frequencies to work. Besides the s5 had actual hard bricks from flashing incorrect modem files.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mikeyinid:
It won't flash, but I wouldn't advise even trying. The soc might be the same, but there is differences in the modem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] phositadc:
T-Mobile and g920i have essentially the same frequencies. Point would be to flash a modem that is optimized for your carrier if you are on the U.S. using T-Mobile.

Or do carrier firmware not optimize modems?

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lyall29:
For some reason my phone will either not connect or connect and disconnect constantly to either one of my pc's and sometimes won't charge from a wall or car charger. I tried every cable I have so the cable is not the problem. I can turn the phone off and on several times, factory reset, flash the ruu via sdcard and then maybe I can get my phone to connect to my PC. I was able to connect my phone to my PC after trying for 45 minutes and flashed the developer ruu. My phone rebooted after a successful flash and now the problem is back again. Does anyone know what could be wrong?

One more thing...HTC car mode starts up on its own sometimes and sometimes when I plug the phone into my PC.

Edit...I called HTC and they told me that because I unlocked the bootloader, I can use my uh-oh warranty and get a free replacement. So that is what I'll do. My phone was always acting goofy anyways.

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Accessories] Kernelangus:
I have this device as well as a Galaxy Note Edge phone. I use them for business and am looking for a combo pen that will work with both devices. Does anyone have suggestions on a stylus/ ink pen combo that would work with both devices? Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Accessories] Ryo Misaki:
Anything marketed as a Touch Screen Stylus will work for the Note phone and Tablet.

There are many nice pen/stylus combos that will suit that purpose.

However, if you're wanting something that specifically has S-Pen functionality built into a pen... That's going to be far harder to find.
[Moto 360] n-j-f:
Is it possible in the Settings to change the timeout before the screen dims when showing a clock face, like you can on a smartphone? All the videos show only a very few seconds before the screen dims if you are using the 'always on' setting. I realise that can consume more battery but if I am at home near my charger that may not matter to me.

TIA
[Moto 360] karlmf:
A 3rd party app, like StayLit Wear: Longer Backlight from the Play Store is what you may be looking for.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amb669:
Ok, So to start I have a .tot & .dll copy of the original stock firmware of my D852, this firmware is only flashable using LG Flash Tools.

I would like to take this firmware and extract the contents and replace the modem THEN I want to make this rom into a TWRP flashable .zip format.

So my 2 questions are:

1. How can I make my .tot & .dll version of my stock rom into a TWRP flashable .zip format??

2. After extracting the firmware and replacing the modem do I need to put the rom back into a .tot & .dll file format before I turn it into a TWRP flashable .zip?? or do I zip or convert the already extracted files before I make them into a .zip??

EDIT: I got it all figured out, I don't need any help anymore.

I have a nook HD+ and finally getting around to doing a cm 10 or great mod to it. I haven't done this type of thing since the old nook color. I know back when I did that one there were specific brand and grade of sd cards needed to do the mods. Is that still true. I can get a samsun class 10 pretty cheap but don't know if they will work to mod the device.. please advice thanks

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
It should work fine. You only have to worry about brand and class if you plan to run the ROM from SD.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twiz0r:
I'm assuming it's possible to remove the headphone warning when plugging in after rebooting, and also to have the volume stay at the high level after reboot.

Is this easy to do? I'm on vzw, doubt it matters
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flu13:
Nothing that I know of without root.

One thing I've considered is using Trigger or some other automation tool to set the media volume to 15 on some sort of trigger, such as connecting to wifi or my watch or something else that happens right after boot. Right now, I have it set to do so when my headphones connect, and it does cause a popup to warn you about the volume, but then I click ok and my volume is at 15. I think that maybe this post-boot trigger would potentially save me the trouble of doing it when my headphones connect.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twiz0r:
That's a good idea. I could do that with Tasker. It will get the job done for now

I have root lol. I know this wouldn't be possible withiut
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flu13:
I played around with this yesterday. Setting media volume to 15 with Trigger/Tasker just changes it for the speaker. Only when you connect headphones and THEN try to set the volume to 15 (or above the threshold) does it give you the warning.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globalrebel:
It does then when connected to bluetooth as well :( I really want this warning to be removed.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NWolf:
Me too! This is so annoying when trying to listen in the car. My phone will connect via bluetooth, but because volume amplification is so low on the S6 I have to turn it all the way up. It makes for a dangerous situation while driving.

I really wish Samsung would stop trying to save people from themselves constantly. I don't need hand holding.

I'm So I'm on at&t, unlocked bl, rooted my 4.4 stock ROM next morning I was stuck on TWRP I tried the stuck in TWRP after other to no avail, I tried stock & custom roms but nothing boots but TWRP.

I poked around the file system things seem to be flashing but /system never gets anything in it but /bin which is empty. (after I told TWRP to mount system I can see it)

I've searched a bit sorry if I missed my anwser

Edit: told TWRP to mount system and alas, all seemed well everything in its place as far I can tell I was once

proficient in flashing roms, adb & FB I started with the g1 and had most of the flagship since but slacked off for long enough to forget(I've had a Sammy s3 since it launched) the s3 was so easy you never needed anything but a fresh recovery and a good backup

So, system says 1572MB, boot 16MB, the data 0MB after a flash and system 45MB, boot 16mb, data 0MB, cache 13MB, etc 6MB after a full wipe.

The rom was cloudy -g3 2.2 I also tried 20f ROM, I think my original ROM was like 10 or 12d maybe F, shoulda took notice, made an immediate nandroid, but I was tired and figured I'd do it in the am. Now I am paying for my lack of attention to detail and jumping before I read first. I've seen it happen alot but I did it anyway.

Ok, I've tried a 20f ROM which was just rooted and debilitated, it had a boot image so that rules out flashing TWRP to my boot partition, things seem to flash and wipe fine but nothing boots but TWRP!

I'm working on this a moto x gen1 and a general + a lg g android wear watch at the same time, the gen1 boots cm11 but gets no data, the watch is rooted and its bl is unlocked and has TWRP but ROM install fails...

I need a victory, moral amongst the troops is in the toilet...

Samsung made it to easy.

I tried to give lollipop a chance but after 2 weeks and a couple of hard resets the battery life was still significantly worse than Kit Kat.

Flashed back yesterday and after investing 3 hours setting everything back up I'm really happy with my decision. Battery life is looking good again and I now realise that you loose more than you gain from running lollipop in is present state.

Can you downgrade without root? I know I've tried to downgrade from BOC5 to BOC3 with Odin and didn't work.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.m0x:

Maybe you could try going back to 4.4.4 and then up to BOC2.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f4vr:
You should be able to. The root has no effect on Odin. Did you set it to download mode first?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kolembo:
It was giving me a headache but it's simple... Go into recovery while still on lollipop and do a factory reset, then a cache wipe, then do your Odin, it works no problem.

i am seriously thinking about downgrading back to kitkat !!

Can i just download the KITKAT from sammobile and flash it via odin (after a factory reset and cleared cashes in recovery?)

another question, i want to root if i got back to kitkat, but on the website of chainfire the root file is made for android 5.0.1, can i root my Kitkat with this autoroot file ???

and do you know if Blurred UI (Xposed) works on kitkat ?

i dont like the UI on kitkat very much

i read somewhere that you have to do something with the bootloader to succesfully downgrade back to kitkat, is this true ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] junkun13:
Almost downgraded back to kitkat because of battery life, factory reset saved lollipop. Now it's smooth and battery life is much better ;)
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.m0x:
I used the latest version of cf-autoroot on kit Kat just yesterday and all went fine.

I did two factory resets and my battery life was still up the fugg. Apparently there is a known bug in lollipop that keeps apps awake and polling mobile data even when they aren't using it (or something like that). Even if your battery life is better after the reset I doubt it's back to kit Kat levels.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Racinghart91:

so i downgraded succesfully !

Yeah !

but i cant root with the autoroot file from chainfires website, it fails.. it says something about recovery...

i dont think this has anything to do with it but, i downloaded the stock firmware from sammobile from Vodafone ( my phone was vodafone but on lollipop roms i downloaded the unbranded version) could this maybe be the problem ?

Kitkat 4 life
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kolembo:
I have to say, Lollipop IS a lot smoother though, very noticeably though! I've been back on KitKat for two days now and it's clear - scrolling, swiping, opening apps - all a lot smoother, and even though the visuals are jarring when you first move to lollipop, it REALLY is much cleaner.

However, ironically, the phone is faster (if also choppier!) On KitKat, the battery life is more consistently managed, and you can open all the apps you want, no problem.

I think for the time being you must choose depending on how you use your machine but if Samsung finally get Lollipop stable, it will be very good.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f4vr:
The first version of KitKat is 4.4 and the last version is 4.4.4 which is also the version of the latest KitKat of Note 4. Since it is the last, most if not all of the bugs are fixed already unlike the Lollipop for Note 4 since 5.0.1 is the second version of Lollipop. New features implemented on Lollipop is not yet stable and they might have broke something while implementing new features. So for me, KitKat is better than Lollipop for now.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.m0x:
Yeah pretty much on the money, and knowing Samsung it will be months (if ever) before we see 5.1.1 which is reported to be a lot less problematic.

The Note 5 in October will have it or maybe 5.2 if it's out by then and we will get updated to whatever is current at that time in 2016.

If it wasn't for that pesky s-pen I'd have ditched the note series already.
