Gear VR Support

I've just received Gear VR Innovator Edition & the next version of JasmineROM (starting from the forthcoming Android 5.1.1 update) will fully support it. If you've issues installing Oculus/VR apps on the current version, you could restore a backup via TitaniumBackup. I restored a backup of all VR apps from my stock rooted safe upgrade & everything is working fine.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] FAUguy:
I did try disabling the IPv6 on my router last night, reset WiFi on the phone, and cleared Dalvik and cache, but it was still changing over from WiFi to LTE when the screen was off. So I decided to start from scratch. I installed a safe OG5 first, and it was OK, and then tried the MoROM. So far, it has not disconnected from the WiFi (I do have IPv6 turned back on). Also, when I charged it overnight, it did not power down the phone. Unfortunately, I still have the issue of sporadic "popping" sounds in the audio track when recording video. So that must be a hardware issue.

I'll give MoROM a few days of testing, then will do a backup, and do a fresh Jasmine install to see if those issues return.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JarkMackson:
I'm SUPER excited for this! I love this ROM but wasn't able to use the Gear VR. Any chance you can put some Note 5 features like the screen off write thing into the next version?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
This may require S6 or Note 5 ROM porting, which most of you didn't vote for. According to the current poll results, I'll focus on deodexed TW & AOSP-based ROMs.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JarkMackson:
Sadface Emoticon.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] KilgoreBA:
Has anybody else noticed that even on a fresh install of the rom, Google Play Movies hangs after 9 seconds on any video? I've done some research and it has happened on other Galaxy phones with custom kernels.

The solution was to flash the original kernel. If we did this though, the brightness control wouldn't work. Does anybody else have a workaround?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
Yes, you can flash the stock kernel & use Lux Auto Brightness. However, there's a better solution: use Youtube Purchases to play your movies.

Stagefright Vulnerability Fix

Address Space Layout Randomisation (ASLR) security feature on Android makes it hard to exploit Stagefright vulnerabilities, but if you need to patch them before getting the 5.1.1 update, you can flash AryaMod_StageFright_Fix_Rev_2.zip from here.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JarkMackson:
OneNote always force closes on me with this ROM. Anyone else have this issue?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jal3223:
The Note 5 port is getting really close to passing the deodexed TW. If it passes it are you going to look into the port? :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] morgej:
I had similar issues on another rom. I fixed the force close by clearing the data for one note and reconnecting.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JarkMackson:
Thanks but still no luck. I can't even fully install it. I get right up to the part to add my account and it closes.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
Yes, OneNote craches here too. I think it's OneNote app issue; I think it's missing permission declaration in app manifest, required by some ROMs (it may be trying to call a method in the system process without being a qualified user). Also, it may be due to the changes in libart.so required for Xposed framework.

Maybe :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fz798:
Odd. OneNote working fine for me on 3.0 (have not applied 3..1)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
Have you clean flashed 3.0? If not, you may have its data from previous versions. Can you make nandroid backup & test it on 3.1?

Also, which version of Xposed framework?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fz798:
Yes, this was a clean flash of 3.0

I will try to test 3.1 (OK to flash that dirty over 3.0?) I was holding off for the next build, since there wasn't much in the 3.1 build that I specifically needed and 3.0 has been incredibly stable for me. No more hot boots that I was getting with the last build. 3.0 has been nothing short of perfection and I didn't want to mess with that! Hahhahah. I will try to make some time today for testing 3.1
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
Yes, you should dirty flash 3.1! It's a minor update.

What version of Xposed framework you have installed now?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fz798:
71 (Arter97), the one you posted a few days back
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JarkMackson:
I have version 65 installed
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] FAUguy:
I went from using JasmineROM 3.1 to MoROM 6.4 a few days ago to try it out.

I just installed OneNote just to see, and it worked fine, also using Xposed 71.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
OneNote Fix

OneNote has issues with GPU Rendering as reported here. To fix it, you need to

disable

"Force GPU Rendering" in Settings/Developer Options.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JarkMackson:
This worked! Thank you so much!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] FAUguy:
I may have discovered what was causing the WiFi to disconnect and reconnect when the screen was on or off. Going into Synapse and changing the WiFi Power Off screen mode from Max to Off (where screen on is also Off). Doing that seemed to get rid of the problem. Going back from Off to Max shows the WiFi dropping and reconnecting with screen off and on.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
I've it set to Max & no issues at all. Anyway, glad this works for you!

As for the sound issues while recording a video, you may try to disable "Sound control lock" & set all gains to 0 in Synapse/Sound.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] FAUguy:
Thanks, I gave it a try, and also made sure Viper and Dolby Atmos were turned off, but it still does it. Again any video resolution, save to internal or microSD, doesn't matter.

But when I did a full wipe and fresh install of the Safe OG5 two days ago, I did a few video test, and had the audio popping on them as well.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
I've recorded a video with no issues on JR 3.1. Apparently, it isn't a ROM-related issue.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] FAUguy:
Yeah, just tried again.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] texasez:
can you tell me where i can get the messenger app that comes with this rom?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fz798:
Yup., upgraded to 3.1 and still working.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fz798:
[MENTION=5868929]hsbadr[/MENTION] ... something apparently new to 3.1, is that installing (via TWRP) the boot animation file I have used for a very long time (The Matrix) does not work... no matter what I do, I am stuck with the dots-to-android boot animation now.

I'd really like to go back to my preferred boot animation. Any Ideas?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
Your bootanimation in QMG format? If so, copy bootanimation.bak to bootanimation in /system/bin, or use bootanimation.zip. I'll add a simple script for this in the next version.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fz798:
That worked! Great, thank you very much. I already had a bootanimation file. renamed that one to bootanimation.sav and then copied bootanimation.bak to bootanimation, rebooted, and now I have my Matrix boot animation once again. :good:

Has anyone got android pay up and running yet? Need to update google play services and then use rootcloak. Some roms are working and some not. Moron doesn't seem compatible right now, but one guy reported that he got it working on Jasmine.

---------- Post added at 05:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:27 PM ----------

Looks like it worked for him using Jasmine 2.1.1
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] wy1d:
I have pay working on Jasmine 2.1.1, Rootcloak 1.4 and Xposed 65. See screenshots attached.

[MENTION=5868929]hsbadr[/MENTION] - I've been hearing a lot of positive feedback about the Note 5 ROM versus the Note 4 including faster camera, recents, S Pen, navigation, app loading, etc. I imagine a lot of this is due to software tweaks rather than the hardware improvements since we know the SD 805 performs blazingly fast with AOSP ROMs.

I am back on Jasmine after trying out AICP and ditching it due to not being able to get Android Pay to work. Have you looked into porting the Note 5 ROM? It could be neat to have while waiting for Marshmallow to drop. If you add the TouchWiz and Note 5 port votes together in the poll, it seems like that would be a highly sought after ROM. I think we are at perfection with Note 4 ROM with Jasmine + XPosed + Pay so Note 5 seems like most logical next steps for TW ROM.

Thoughts?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] FAUguy:
Regarding the "audio popping" issues that I'm having when recording video or using the voice recorder , I can confirm it is on the Safe OG5, JasmineROM 3.0/3.1, and MOROM 6.x.

I am going to contact Samsung this week about Warranty to see if they could look at the device and possibly fix it, or swap it. My concern is that if I get it back, it may not have this ANI1 Bootloader, but one of the newer ones that prevent ever returning back to KitKat.

So with that in mind, would my DevEd in the state it is now be able to have a KK ROM/Firmware flashed on it just to see if the audio popping recording issue is on it as well? The person that I had purchased this from said he never had this issue and had the phone new from Samsung since Feb (he sent me the original receipt).
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] wy1d:
Hey [MENTION=5868929]hsbadr[/MENTION] I just watched https://youtu.be/V-nBAcr_huw and am thinking Note 5 ROM port + Xposed will make the Note 4 DE better than Note 5 in every way. What do you think?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jal3223:
It just passed the deodex in the poll so maybe he will look into it now.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JDevil:
Anybody have any luck installing new Samsung themes? I've tried installing the Urban theme (the test to get custom ones to work) and it doesn't show up. I cannot find any in the Samsung store either. Are we only able to use the ones provided? I love the dark material / black background for ease on eyes and battery saving. It didn't work for me on 2.1 but I also dirty flashed. I recently did a clean install of 3.1 but still nothing. Thank you.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] oneandroidnut:
I would love to see a note 4 with a note 5 rom port omg that could be, could it be PERFECTION!!?!?!!?

Best note 5 feature: screen off memo. This app emulates the feature inread of porting it. Works great and has appeased my desire for a note 5 port. Made for note 3 but works on my note 4 no problem. http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-3/themes-apps/app-screen-off-memo-t3196790
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fz798:
Confirmed, this works on JasmineROM 3.0.1 Thank you, sir.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
I'll look into it. However, it's too early to expect a stable Note5 port for VZW Note4 with working data since both 5.1.1 firmwares are not yet available (we didn't receive the 5.1.1 update and VZW Note5 SM-N920V firmware hasn't been released yet). In general, Note4 TW ROM looks better than S6/Note5 ROMs (at least for me), which have the most interesting feature: Theme Engine. The other features can be handled with 3rd party apps: Screen Off Memo, Write On PDF (use Xodo for example), ... etc.

MultiSystem Kernel v5.1 [Sep 22, 2015]

MultiSystem Kernel v5.1 is now alive.

If you'd like to revert back to the Patched/Stock kernel, you can dirty flash JasmineROM v3.1.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] wy1d:
I was witnessing significant software stability and efficiency improvement in the S6 and Note 5 ROMs. Do you think this has more to do with the 5.1.1 update rather than the specific model ROM?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
I didn't try 5.1.1 yet!, but there's positive feedback from the other variants.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] wy1d:
Maybe the better solution is 5.1.1 for Note 4 + the 3rd party apps you mention to provide functionality? A good test would be to see how 5.1.1 on the S5 is functioning on Verizon. Unfortunately my wife's S5 just got smashed so I won't be able to Guinea pig that... [emoji24]
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
I'll look into Note5 port when possible, but an updated Note4 ROM may be more stable & functional (e.g., Note5 currently doesn't support Gear VR, but I may get it to work!). I personally like my current setup and can't notice any issues or lag (except for the 1st time to open recents after a reboot).
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] wy1d:
Currently on Jasmine 3.1? I'm still on 2.1 which I was able to get cards added with Android Pay but haven't had a chance to get a transaction working yet. Recents lags even a while after a boot. Not as bad as first time but after trying out the AICP ROM, everything seems slower on TW.

I'm hoping 5.1.1 speeds it up. My wife's new S6 is blazing compared to the N4.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
Yes.

Does tether need the xposed module to work? It keeps checking mine for subscription and failing
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JDevil:
No it shouldn't. What version are you running? I ran into this issue back on 1.1 I believe? maybe 2.0 . I wound up doing a clean install. Hand editing files / flashing the tether mod didn't help either.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jam2315:
It's working now. Thanks guys for the help. What does everyone recommend for volume boost. I've lost a lot of volume since switching to this ROM for some reason.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] FAUguy:
I use Viper.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jam2315:
i just installed it and im not sure if its the wrong version or not bt it says it running and updated the driver and everything bt really cant tell any difference. Maybe im not using it correctly lol

well for some reason after looking i have 2 versions installed on my phone and not sure how the other got there. build number is the same but they look different. Guess i will try uninstalling one of them and go from there!

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] krishaun27:

Is anyone able to get the "Floating Messages" feature to work at all?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fz798:
I tried, doesn't seem to be working for me (3.1.1). I had been using Floatifications in conjunction with Heads Off, and liked that for the most part, but wanted to try the floating messages. Froze Floatifications and Heads Off and enabled floating messages in settings, but all I seem to get is the heads up notification, nothing floating and can't reply from the HUN. so, I went back to my earlier setup for now.

Hi,

i am newbie to verizon rooting and installing ROM, i did work with other unlocked phones..and i dont find clear information in case of verizon..can someone help me .I understand we can only put stock ROM with verizon due to limited capability

1) how to unlock or root and install TWRP -> link and steps please.

2) how to install this ROM is given on first page.

3) how to unroot and get back to stop in case of problem.

Thanks

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fz798:
Before you go any further, are you on a DE (Developer Edition)? If not, stop, do not pass go, do not collect $200.

If you are, read the installation instructions in the OP, if you are unclear about any steps in those instructions, suggest you search around the Verizon Note 4 forum before going much further. And, if it is a DE, do NOT take any OTA updates (and if you already have, you may be SOL)

hsbadr with Android M being released on Monday do you still plan on building an AOSP build for us?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
Sure, I'll have to respect the poll results. So, I'll likely release 6.0 AOSP & 5.1.1 TW for all of us to test/compare (5.1.1 TW is better than 5.1.1 AOSP for the Note 4, but 6.0 may change it). I've tried Note 5 port, but I like Note 4 ROMs more: Air Command & SPen apps on Note 4 look more professional + I don't like Note 5 TW launcher. Theme Store is the only thing that counts for Note 5 or S6 ports.

As always, no ETA though!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Gravemoss42:
I'm excited for it! I have one aosp build that works great on my note 4. All others had DATA issues, can't wait for something new!

There's an updated Xposed framework for TW 5.1.1 (not released for SM-N910V yet).

If we didn't receive TW 5.1.1 update in October, I'll port it from any other variant.

Also, Android 6.0 Marshmallow source code has been released. So, I may build it for VZW Note 4 DE ASAP.

[MENTION=5868929]hsbadr[/MENTION], what do you make of this: http://www.xda-developers.com/a-look-at-marshmallow-root-verity-complications/

Do you think, based on this, that the new implementation of dm-verity may present a boot-time problem for us DE users in a Marshy Jasmine?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] wy1d:
It only let me like this post once so I'm quoting it so I can like it again.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hsbadr:
Nope, I don't think so! We'll always boot a custom kernel (permissive SELinux or patched sepolicy, disabled dm-verity, ... etc) with the unlocked bootloader. Actually, dm-verity is already enabled on the Note 4 RE and DE (to check it yourself, flash the Safe Upgrade tar >>> TWRP >>> ROOT >>> flash stock recovery >>> boot into recovery >>> "dm-verity verification failed!"). This will make it worse for locked-bootloader devices, similar to WP on Note 4 RE.

The only thing that might affect us is the security verification for Android Pay (or any Mobile Payment app) and similar services, if it implements related checks.

Be patient :D
