Is that a glitch your device is having... Or it that a note 4 glitch? Because you can't say a company doesn't support a device when its only one device which is usually user error. My note 4 has never locked up from long pressing a key and I've never seen a thread about it making me assume it's just yours... FYI aplle won't push a update for a issue 1 or two people are having either they'll tell you to factory reset like all other manufacturers. P.S. Note 3 is still getting updates. You guys live in a fantasy world.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] joe1blue:
I actually tried to make a post but I think you are correct because nobody else responded to having that same issue,they just suggested I I use anothe keyboard, im stock and I did a factory reset and that helped for a while but then it started doing it again?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] nano303:
Has anyone checked out the Blu XL??? It's quite a serious device with really, really good specs for $350!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] rile1564:
I have the Keyboard glitch too. I know a few people that have the exact same glitch. It doesn't happen every time I long press but every few times I do it. It got slightly better with Stagefright/bug fixes but it's still there. I also have been having issues where my phone battery icon jumps from 15 to below 10 then to 1% and dies all in a matter of less than a minute. These have only happened since Lollipop. I've factory reset 6 times and cleared the cache partition more times than I can count. So I'm more than eager for the 5.1.1 update. Once I get that, I'll have a better phone for my needs than a Note 5.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] nique0201:
That's because your battery is malfunction in the lower charges probably from letting it completely die to many time (that's what happen to mine) get a new battery and you'll be fine.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] d12unk13astard:
Yea I'm sure millions of people made the same face when Samsung decided to remove sdcard support and removable battery/ir blaster so the phone could be slimmer,easier to hold,go with a glass back,charge the customer more for less storage,decided hey screw Europe they don't need the note 5,etc etc etc.

Samsung pissed off a lot of its customers with its decisions on the note 5, who cares if they wanna try an iPhone, it's not like it's coming out of your pocket. The resale value for iPhones will always be higher than that of any (Android OEM) (you like that 1 didn't ya.. :P )
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pcriz:
If one device on one manufacturer is all you needed to jump ship to apple then why even come here and argue the merits of what Samsung did or didn't do for customers. Obviously you/whoever has no stake in any of it since a switch is that easy.

I am the beyond the mindset of "Lets hate apple because apple, blah blah fanboy something or another". I appreciate what they create, their UI is simple and phones are beautiful, but I will never be able to make an Apple device fit comfortably in my use demographic with how locked down the devices are. I need to tinker, torrent, root, etc etc.. So if the device I got from sammy isnt making me happy, there are plenty of choices..

You know what I hear when someone says they dont like Sammy and thus will choose Apple. I hear someone saying oh I dont like what Politician X is doing so I will just vote for the other guy.

Resale values didn't matter when you had an SDcard and removable battery so that point is moot. Ultimately you are trading function for form much like sammy did.. Except switching to apple over android is quite the drop in function. And no Im not paying for his device but like all things posted in social networks, you may not want someones opinion but you should expect it. Also the guy switching did solicit responses to his possible decision to switch.

Further more can you back up your estimate of "millions"?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] nique0201:
Reading is fundamental Samsung didn't decide to get rid of the SD card for a slimmer profile or glass back... Say it with me..... THE SD CARD SLOT IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE NEWEST MEMORY CONTROLLER, THEY DONT PLAY NICE TOGETHER!!!!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pcriz:
Actual facts don't matter, only that you agree with the majority.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] d12unk13astard:
Ignorance is bliss!

By choosing their own SOC over others like SD they did get rid of sdcard support/removable battery.

Well...

Considering Europe is a whole frigging continent alone that didn't even see a note 5 release (not that they'd want to now after being treated as such,or with removed features) that alone is millions...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] seh6183:
And how else were they supposed to get a 64 Bit processor in the phone without the new memory controller? Since you're clearly a genius, you should design a new memory controller that talks to 64 bit processors AND archaic external SD cards.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] d12unk13astard:
I already am duh!!!!

Samsung done messed up and I'm creeping on ahhh come up!

BELIEVE DAT!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] tsdsbrk:
Not including Europe in the Note 5 footprint is mind boggling as there were millions of Note 4 customers alone and millions more Note 2,3 owners who might have been looking to upgrade. If Samsung thinks European owners weren't using the stylus then whats to prevent them from moving to an iPhone especially since many of them were pissed off they were kicked to the curb? a glass back? smh
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pcriz:
There are so many assumptions there but no concrete proof of angry millions. Yes people won't be able to buy the phone buy to my knowledge not every note made it to Europe. So now you have a phone that very well may not be a particularly well selling phone in Europe and we are to assume this has caused an outrage that will adversely affect Samsung. Or its easier to simply say millions to stir the pot of wrong doing that Samsung is brewing up.

Also let's not forget that the Galaxy S6 edge+ is released in europe.

Nevermind if it sells or not. It still costs money to advertise, certify for, and ship to that market. All money that would come from the over head. And if the device doesn't sell well enough to create a profit margin then it isn't a market worth investing in. Seems pretty cut and dry to me. At the end of the day shareholders have more say than anyone on any xda thread.

So do you have any specific details where you can say Samsung made a decent profit margin in europe. Then I can see why everyone think this is so upsetting.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] d12unk13astard:
..and what's funny about that is Samsung themselves just assumed they didn't use the s-pen. Now that's a poll I would love to see IRL show up to back up their claim lol
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] @rbiter:
Who says iOS is easy to use. Now that I've been forced one from one it is a work of art in frustration. And I thought some of the older guys who are less technologically inclined would do decent. Well, they didn't. And me being the tech guy, I get thrown a lot of dumb questions and I myself have been thrown for a loop many a time the last week or so. iOS is very unintuitive, even though I have access to smasung device and devices which have software nav buttons. Android is just far superior in the freedom and finding out what you don't know through trial and error and tinkering. iOS is futile to figure out stuff out on your own. Sad.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] joe1blue:
This may be a dumb question but I know people who buy the micro usb otg thing to use an SD card how is it that they can use that with the Note 5 without any issues? But samsung claims that it wont work properly with the phone?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pcriz:
Lol I can't get an s-pen so let me switch to a completely different OS. That logic tho..... my brain hurts.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Jammol:
Different implementation and method being used. Think of it like a computer that you can install SATA Drives on but not PATA(Parallel), yet you can use a USB-to-IDE(PATA) adapter so that you can push and pull files on the PATA(Parallel) drive.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] nique0201:
"Apple never release bugs into the iPhone, apple is perfect, Jesus himself uses and iPhone, no removable battery and lack of SD is a no-no unless apple does it and only gives us 16GB of memory..." -_-
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] tsdsbrk:
I see the Samsung jealousy of Apple has infiltrated the XDA Samsung fans. Funny. If anyone questions why this thread won't die its because the Samsung apologists won't let it. Especially the hypocrites who said move on long ago yet they're still here even though they're so happy with Note 5 (supposedly). Are the the Note 5 forums that dead?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Cerv3r:
Note 5 forums are dead and there won't be support for cm since it's an exynos.. note 2 has an exynos processor and that was the last exynos that got support from cm...

Look at s6 forums... no development since no cm...

I really want the note 5 but I don't think I can pull the trigger with already dead development. .. what you see now on that forum is what you'll get. .. I'll give it a couple months and development is going to be nonexistent
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pcriz:
Lmao and you're still commenting. But yes it's the other guys fault.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Cerv3r:
You have foreverloco tek and thrash...

Still no cm and won't ever have cm..

Sure note 5 is an upgrade to hardware but there is downgrading through it too... it's a great phone don't get me wrong.. I won't get a note 5 unless I'm on jod.. I can't be stuck with that phone for a year cause of no SD card
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pcriz:
Yeah and while I used cm on my note 4 it was never as good as Fire Kat and Pop rocks. If I wanted AOSP and bad battery life I would go back to Nexus. Not having cm doesn't not translate to dead. The phone just came out and folks are trying to compare the device section to a phone that's been out for a year.

Let's be a little less bias in our attempt to prove a point.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Cerv3r:
I can't believe you have a note 5 yet you still come to the note 4 forums.. it's time for you guys to move on.. it's just a phone big deal.. I had a note 2.. skipped note 3 cause it wasn't worth it.. got a note 4 I'm skipping 5 and getting 6..

I had a galaxy s1.. skipped s2 and got s3 then went to the note 2

No bias from me... I love samsung.. I can't go to anything else.. I have Samsung tvs... they have the best screen quality..

Whenever I upgrade.. I disappear from my old phones forum.. I don't lurk around ... don't you have anything else better to do?

If you read this thread from page one. .. you guys are really stupid and immature. . There's a reason why developers stop developing for us
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pcriz:
Lmao yes I read from page one. I read where people flamed a guy because he had iPad in his signature. Someone made an argument for sdcards lasting forever because they had once since 2000 when they didn't exist until 2005.

I watched pro note 4 people throw as much trash if not more.. so again please stop being so bias.

Not to mention I still have my note 4 so news flash. I do whatever the heck I want. Lol you guys are a joke. Please stop being so butt hurt and move on.

I love android. Not one brand so I won't be butt hurt fan boying around about what my favorite oem didn't do for me this year. Grow up
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Cerv3r:
I can't use any phone unless it has an amoled.. now if Sony used amoled I would jump on that. . They make amazing phones. ..

Amoled supplier is samsung... all those amoled screens on Motorola are from Samsung. .

They only use their best screens on their phones. . Monopoly. .

So they have me hooked but I can't get go of my SD card. . Sometimes I'm out in the middle of no where with no signal

I'm sure note 6 will have sdcard.. now if they made 128gb note 5 I would jump on that
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pcriz:
It's only a monopoly if they are the only ones that could produce a screen that good. Other oems choose not to
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Warrior1975:
So if you have a note 5, you can't post here? Who better than people that have had both devices?? The logic in this thread is non existent. Luckily I'm not banned from posting in the N5 forum, even though I have a N4...

Man this thread kills my brain cell o.o still better than TV. So those with a note 5... How do u like it? Anyone used to be ir blast fan? How have you overcome it?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] d12unk13astard:
This thread easily beats reality TV.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pcriz:
I was a fan in the beginning but as my ownership went on I used it less and less. I found the app to he too cumbersome to navigate and not convenient unless you used the ridiculously large notification UI. I suppose I could have just went for another remote app but I just decided to use the remotes I already had
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] d12unk13astard:
Once you have an ir blaster it's hard to not have it. Sure some people might have a couple extra remotes laying around, but who here can vouch for family...especially kids losing remotes in the house,batteries being taken out and the back plate of remote lost all the time. To hell with all that bullshiet.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] tsdsbrk:
I was addressing those Note 5 owners who told us to move on yet they themselves have to respond to every negative comment about Samsungs decisions to remove desirable features. I guess they learned hypocrisy from Samsung marketing.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pcriz:
This message brought to you by HTC
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Warrior1975:
I get that... Just a general question, how many times and different ways can it be said that the N5 has no SD card, no IR blaster, and non removable battery? Don't get me wrong, I wanted the SD and removable battery, and those reasons are the main reasons I'm not jumping to the N5 just yet. Just keep reading the same gripes. I think we all know the shortcomings at this point.

I'd love to hear from those that were reluctant to switch, but did. Are they happy? Do they miss the N4? Be much better than reading the redundant, back and forth conversations.

Too bad you can't have either. Looks like you're stuck with the Note 4 forever.

20 bucks the S7 will have at least SD card support again, meaning the note 6 will too...

Not when it makes my phone look like it's taking a ****, much easier to just have SD card support. I'll leave my charging port to do just that.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] JawjaBill:
OK OK OK. I am willing to change my mind.

I took delivery of the Almost a Note 5 64GB yesterday. I have 14 days to regret my purchase. I'll let you know.

So far ...

• The screen is better/brighter on a smaller frame.

• GPS works. Yeah!!!

• Like the 4, hard to find a tempered glass without halo. Took delivery of 3 sub $10 protectors recommended by users here and the "other places". All 3 to be returned. Zagg looking like a winner at 3/4 times the price.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] nique0201:
The almost a note 5? I got a privacy glass got 10$ on amazon. No halo.... Only thing is it didn't have oleophobic coating. So I bought a solution that applies it... And I applied it to the back of the device to cut down on prints.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Jammol:
Those solutions are awesome. Does it make the back too smooth though or can you maintain grip?

Edit: Grammar corrections. Man G4 keyboard sucks really bad!!!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] nique0201:
It's no more slippery than before.... I'd even say if anything its less slippery... I was surprised but more sonon the front than the protector than the back but the coating works really well!! Maybe because on the screen its usually just thumbs as opposed to the back where its a whole hand and all fingers. But even back there I notice less prints... Also since this phone gets a lot brighter than my note 4. The privacy screen isn't bad. Idk if you've ever had one but they're tinted so they make the phone darker. But its a MUST HAVE where I work. Lol all I need is for a client to see a random text or something.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pcriz:
Might I recommend these cases

http://www.caseologycases.com/collections/samsung-galaxy-note-5-cases
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Jammol:
They make great cases. Don't really like the ones they made for the G4 though but might still pick one up for my wife.

---------- Post added 23rd September 2015 at 12:05 AM ---------- Previous post was 22nd September 2015 at 11:59 PM ----------

Nice. It could be because up front it's pretty much just thumbs. I use it on my screens including my glasses every few weeks. Helps to keep the gunk from sticking to my lens.

I've had very bad luck with the privacy films. Always made the screen look like an otterbox protector was on there. They definitely do keep privacy though as they were super dark. Luckily it was more of a "I'm going to try this out," phase. Wyatt brand are you using?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] ScorpionKing76:
I grabbed the Note 5 just for the heck of it, but I kept my Note 4 as my other number. I must admit, I am impressed by the device. I grabbed an OTG micro usb that goes on my keychain for my titanium backups and what not. I thought the non-removable battery was gonna bother me as well, but it hasn't so far. I'm alot more happy with it than I thought I would be lol
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] nique0201:
Like 98% of the people in here if they would just give up the complaining and try lol. Glad your happy man

My next phone will most likely be the new BB Priv. I'll take the keyboard and similar size screen over the Spen. If they'd only make a landscape version.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] LordRalh3:
My reasons for wanting the removable battery will problem seem crazy to most of you....I keep my devices longer than a year or two...holy crap I know right...batteries lose a good 15-20% a year and I'd like to be able to keep using something I payed 5-700 for longer than a year or so. I know that Samsung doesn't want me too but I think if I can use a laptop for over 6 years I can get an extra 2 or 3 outta a phone.

For storage it's simply a cost per gb deal for me, I could "get by" with a 128gb version but when I can add 128 for 30-50 and move it around as I see fit instead of paying 3-400 extra for the same capacity and less convenience doesn't work for me. Oh memory cards are slower they say? Seems faster than the computer disk transfers we've been using for most of the last 20 years.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] nique0201:
Well after Android M say goodbye to moving memory cards device to device...(unless individual manufacturers change this feature as they did with device encryption) but by default. When Google reintroduce SD support they did so at a cost.... The SDs are formatted to the device they're in. The problem with SD isn't the speed per'se its more the security... For instance I steal your locked device, I pop out the SD card I have access to every file on it and that's what Google's trying to combat more so than the speed of them when they removed support... So there resolve was to basically lock the SD down to the device they're inserted to. So they can be used as a way to up storage but not necessarily to move files between two or three devices... So every swap will require a format.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] dbpaddler:
Even if it's locked to one phone, I don't see a 128gb Note 5 anywhere. Also, it's $100 difference just to go from 32gb to 64gb. Plus you don't even get all of it for storage. You have to share it with the OS and apps. So now I have the shared 32gb plus my 64gb card which will end up going to 128gb at some point if I don't end up with the BB Priv soon.

So going back to the card ultimately being locked to the device doesn't really matter much when you have the cost factor and the fact that you don't get all the claimed memory for storage. And if it's that much of an issue, I'll be plenty happy with Lollipop for quite a while. Why do I care about Android M?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] d12unk13astard:
I personally can't wait for android M, as of right now I mostly use xposed apps like obb to SD & Xinternalsd to keep my apps and data only on SD and save tons of space on internal. I'm cool with M locking down the SD card to the phone if it means I'm gonna have a 150-200gb+ internal storage monster of a phone. I think they should have done this from the beginning!!!!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] demonr6:
Quoted because the first time the phone ****s the bed getting stuck and you cannot restart it because the ability to pull the battery is gone there will surely be a post about it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] d12unk13astard:
That's hilarious right there, the 98% are the smart ones who wouldn't just hand over money to samesung for a downgrade just because it's a note 5 and hey now we have the latest but definetly not greatest!

If you like the note 5 and don't care about SD support and battery being removed cool whatever floats your boat, but if 98% are complaining as you say we are why the hell would we want to try it out, screw the note 5, there will be plenty of better options coming soon for the 98% of us complaining.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] mgbotoe:
You do not need to pull battery to get out of a bootloop...never has been even on the note 4 lol, people just do not understand the power of power button and volume key ^.^ ...pulling battery is much easier if you have no case...but if you have those tight cases, power and volume is the way to go.

How do you think nexus / htc / sony get out of bootloops?
