You're right, the Apple watch doesn't have a black bar on the bottom. It has 4 black bars covering up about 40% of the entire front of the watch. I think I prefer the small bar on the bottom and be able to see the watch face, then look at Apple's tiny screen and a huge amount of bezel on an ugly square watch.

That said, you obviously didn't do much looking on the web for Moto 360 images or reviews or G+ posts or Instagram photos or ....

Flat Tire

If you had come up with this after preordering the watch, it would have been a disappointment really!

but the 360 came nearly an year back and you didn't even have a clear view at any picture or review?? :(

Its never visible on dark dials anyway and that's why its called Flat Tire :cool:

If you complain about the bar, the battery life will be another "deal breaker" , was skeptical abot to get this watch or not and after viewing reviews from youtube took the leap of faith and now i can tell you that i love this watch.
[Moto 360] aperry:
That's close to what I paid, and IMO it's about right. Imagine how you would have felt if you paid $250 a year ago and were surprised by the "flat tire".

For $120 you get to experience Android Wear in all of it's half-*ssed glory, but on a watch that I believe is by far the best looking one on the market. Seriously, I've received more comments about this watch than any other watch I've ever had. And it's from people who have no idea it's a smart watch.

Hi, I'm going to be getting a Z3 international model soon and am new to the whole rooting process. A friend told me that it is very easy to root an international model because it comes with the bootloader already unlocked(?). This is my first time on XDA and was wondering if someone could point me to the thread with instructions to root the international model. Thank you for your time.

Hi, I rooted my LG Tribute on Virgin Mobile, and, after deleting some bloatware, I cannot connect to my service. I didn't make a nandroid because I just learned of it lol- I was under the impression that Titanuim was all I needed :( So here I am, asking for some guidance how to get my phone back to its orginal state so that I can reroot it and then carefully delete bloatware while expanding my storage to my sd card. All of this is new to me, so please if you can help please me be as detailed as possible.

Hiya! A while ago I was using the AICP lollipop rom based on CM, and it had a setting that allowed me to calibrate the color of my screen. A long while back My screen has a very noticeable green hue to it, and i used AICPs color calibration to make it less green. Now that I switched roms (a lollipop touchwiz rom), this new one doesn't have color calibration. Is there any apps or mods that could give me that functionality? Thanks in advance. :)

Hello community!

Does anyone have a ported camera app from Lollipop for Z1 Compact (maybe in zip format, flashable in CWM) ? I just reverted back from 14.5.A.0.270 to Kitkat - I didn't like the concept of muting the sound (the only way is to use the side buttons) and I have encountered few call drops because of the proximity sensor. The only think what I miss from Lollipop is the quality of the camera.

Thanks

Plugged my Note 4 into Kies this afternoon and it announced new firmware, ending in OF1. It's downloading at the moment... anyone else seeing this?

This is for the VZW Note 4. Says the current version is PDA, CSC, PHONE is OAF, VZW -new firmware is OF1.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] cnote74:
Are you currently running lollipop on your phone or kit Kat?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] steven.rn:
Lollipop. The build ends in BOAF, I think this build ends in OF1. It's downloading now, I'll let you know.

2 gig update to add Milk Music. Awesome.

In all seriousness, haven't noticed any changes yet.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] goinovr:
Got it as well when I plugged into my laptop running the VZW updater.

BOF1

Didn't get a capture of the original kernel info.

The Milk app is only 12MB so one would have to assume there was far more updated.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Jradizrad:
anyone else take this upgrade? im downloading it now, just hopefully it doesn't cause any performance issues!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] liquidraven:
I checked for update on my phone and nothing
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] tu3218:
Downloaded Kies and got the update pop up. Downloading now and will see.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] vzwtech:
Of1 update on 7/7/15

I haven't noticed anything different. I disabled milk music as soon as saw it. Other than that no change at all. Weird! However, 5.1 will be rolling out the end of the month.. Long over due!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jason2042:
I just finished d/ling and updating via Smart Switch (Kies) as well - no noticeable changes here either. The only differences I notice are the Baseband & Build versions now end in BOF1, and of course the addition of Milk - which was promptly disabled. For some reason - under Options>System Updates says 'Software update is temporarily unavailable" when I tap it now. Will keep checking to see if I can find anything else...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] tu3218:
No changes here either, although the kernel version seems to be a little different. Also this app that I circled, doesn't look familiar at all.

Just found something new. When using chrome if I go to droid life or yahoo.com, the status bar turns pink or purple. Never did that before.

Edit: never mind! Didn't realize that once you turned off the merge tabs part, or goes away. That's dumb.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Justinphxaz:
Is this new software still available on kies?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] derrickmehaffy:

I can confirm that app was not there in BOAF, screenshot attached.

I had the pop up for this software in kies about 2 hours ago but lost Internet connectivity while the update downloaded via kies and it all stopped, I restarted my computer and now opening kies it says I have the latest software in OAF. Anyone know a way to trick it and bring that OF1 update back?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] vzwtech:
Of1 update on 7/7/15

Yes, to get your update, pull your battery, restart your pc and try again. No matter though you will get the update again. As I stated before, 5.1 will be rolling out towards the of month. Be patient, because droid Turbo just received the update this past week.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] hkklife:
Has it been pulled? Just tried connecting to the latest version of Kies 3 (haven't upgraded to Smart Switch yet) on my stock VZW Note 4 and it says no update available.

I was planning on doing a hard reset this weekend in hopes of improving my battery life so the timing for a new update is perfect.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Justinphxaz:
VZWTECH, thanks very much, I will give this a try and see if I can get that new software update to pop back up in Kies. I am curious though, are you saying that the Android 5.1.1 update for the Verizon Note 4 should be rolled out OTA by the end of this month? I know that Russia just got the 5.1.1 updated rolled out OTA for the Note 4, but Verizon will have it pushing out so soon OTA as well? Is this OF1 update just a primer for the new 5.1.1. update? If true, does this come via a reliable source? Thanks!

---------- Post added at 08:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:26 AM ----------

I think it has been pulled. I had it pop up last night in Kies around 10pm but I had a hiccup in the process and had to restart my phone. I went to do it all over again and Kies showed that I was running the latest software of OAF, OF1 did not show up and still will not show up today in Kies. I've tried clearing the cache partition, clearing my PC and pulling the phones battery, restarting the PC and still no luck in Kies. I am downloading the firmware from Sammobile right now though :) Only.....2hrs and 25 mins remaining @ 24%!!!!

Roll back

YES , you can roll back, however, after 5.1 you CANNOT. Do not take 5.1 if you desire to revert back.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
Since there is confirmation in rolling back, does the temp root apps work to permanent root? I am still on KK and don't want to move up to lollipop until root.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] tekjester:
Not really sure what you're asking. There's not temp root now, and won't be on this update. If was VZWTech says is true, you can always revert back to 4.4 (until 5.1 is pushed). For now, this is an upgrade to the 5.0 build it seems.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] zeuswsu:
Same here. I doubt they are fixing whatever caused the Bluetooth issues, but if they do then I'll upgrade.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
Does this update allow permanent root?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] cnote74:
No that would require Verizon to actually unlock the bootloader, and they would lose sells on the developer edition note 4.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] vzwtech:
Re: temp root

The Verizon® variant has a locked bootloader. Until the developers find a way the work around root is moot. I have both the developers editon and the regular and root is really not needed. You can remove bloatware without it. Unless you want custom roms the phone is great the way it is. I run both, but really its the same to me. I no longer flash custom roms, but there are alot of people who do. I guess if you really want root now, sell your regular and but the developers edition from Samsung.

Any other questions, feel free to ask. I will, however, keep everybody updated on 5.1.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
I mainly only use root to disable ads and to tether. Other wise I don't mind the phone except when trying to use multi task button and its lag.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] vzwtech:
Blocking ads , I can relate because they drive me nuts. But you can use Firefox and add the adon for ads. Another is boat browser (paid). You can tether because I do it all the time. I guess if you really like a device you take the good and bad. Granted, root would be nice. I keep my faith with guys working on this now and have high hopes for them. I pledged 500 bucks and will gladly pay once reached…
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] tedkord:
You cannot remove bloatware from this phone without root.

Take up space? I knew there was a reason I never belonged to the forums. Very little space and they're turned off. Not enough space you would notice.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] steven.rn:
I just realized no one answered. Yep its available. Install Samsung KIES (dl from www.samsung.com\kies , the page has a link as you scroll down). Once you install on your PC, run the program and plug your NOTE into the computer. It will automatically ask if you want to upgrade your firmware. Took hours to DL, tho. If verizon is pushing this OTA, it would be a lot faster. But, 2 hours ignoring your phone aint bad ;)

You know, you come across as very arrogant. Not sure if it's intentional. Holier than thou folks like yourself are the reason fewer and fewer people participate here.

I have very little space left on my Note 4, between music, movies and apps. Regardless, I paid full price for my Note 4, I'm not under contract. I own the device, I should have full control over it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] vzwtech:
I'm not arrogant! But companies cannot please everyone. There are millions of people who deal with it. You may not be intentionally wining, but hey. I'm not saying it's right, but 94 gigs? The phone takes 64 and the phone itself is 32. Move some stuff to your PC dude. Everyone else is dealing with it until root is achieved. Its people like you, complaining that makes people stop visiting the site. Now, enough already, deal with it!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] heXacode:
This phone has way more than enough space, man.

Let the phones internal priorities stay on the the internal memory and the rest on the external sd card.

I have over 2000 songs on the ext card and still more than half the space unsused. Keep all my pictures and videos on the ext card too.

I also have a buddy who said the 128gb ext card works fine on this phone. I have 64gb card.

There is also Dropbox, Google Drive, and other free cloud storage if you want to move stuff but be able to access it from your phone.

I have the WD My Cloud 8TB private server with SSH, SFTP/FTP that I access through this phone. I can access my private cloud from anywhere. I'm nowhere near close to running out of space with so much on this phone already.

Check out some of these apps... Tonido, Dropbox, SuperBeam, Google Drive, SplashTop, etc.

Just a few thoughts.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] oneandroidnut:
128 gb here! I love it!! Can't ever have enough storage and ram imo. Internal storage is maybe low if it didn't have sdcard. I'm worried about note 5 not having sdcard

---------- Post added at 10:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 AM ----------

Do you have an sdcard and if so what size?

Actually 64+32 is 96 gb! ;)

Just get a developer edition with root too ;)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] tedkord:
Look, I don't want to get into an argument, and I apologize for the arrogant remark. But the point is, regardless of any workarounds listed, I shouldn't have to work around it. I own the device, I should be able to decide what software is installed, what kernel to use, etc...

Besides the bloat issue, there is the kernel issue. The stock one is pretty poor, especially on Lollipop. The battery life is not great. There are areas of stutter and lag (not by any means huge, but there should be virtually none in a $750 device). I shouldn't have to move stuff to a PC or use cloud services, both of which can be useless if you're not at home or in an area with poor signal (or vzw's awful 3G, which is dialup slow). I've had several microsd cards fail over the years.

All I want is the right to use my device, that I paid full price for, as I wish. That's not so much to ask, I don't think. The Note 4 is a great device, but it's got one hand tied behind its back.

This is my last post. I don't want to litter up the thread any more. But you shouldn't tell others that they should settle for what vzw allows on a device they own. Just because you're OK with it, doesn't mean anyone else is.

Hoping the Note 5 is the answer.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] oneandroidnut:
I agree with lollipop battery life I'm on kitkat for a reason still. Can't be beat
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] bond32:
Surprisingly, with the new update I feel like the recents key seems a tad better. I'm sure it's nowhere near where it should be, but perhaps something with the update helped. Or it's nothing at all and I'm crazy and it's a placebo.

Still trying to find the perfect browser as well. No matter what OS, I find chrome has a hair of a hiccup on startup even after its been used. I still find the stock Samsung Browser to be handy.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] tedkord:
It wasn't available at the time, and I honestly expected perm root would be achieved within 2-3 months (though I knew bootloader unlock would likely be never).
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] RedsonRising:
I've seen other phones get a new firmware this way (partial deployment) then get pulled. Then later an updated version gets released or sometimes the same version. Wonder if this slipped out early. Hopefully taking this version won't cause any issues with taking the "official" release when it comes out.

For those running the new firmware, are you seeing any performance changes, good or bad?

It happened to me. I can definately confirm. Once you update your firmware with kies, your phone can Not be rolled back to KK 4.4.4. I had to take my note 4 to Verizon and they flashed the new OF1 on my phone to get it back working again.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] blindmanpb:
For those wondering why this update was roughly 2GB in size:

It's because Kies downloads the ENTIRE firmware image, not just an update package. Doesn't matter if an update only changes one line of code in a single application, the Kies download will still be huge because it's an entire firmware image that gets flashed in Odin/Download mode. This also gives Kies the capability to reinstall the firmware if an update goes bad.

OTA updates are usually much smaller because they're just ZIPs of only the files that have changed from one version to the next. These get installed through recovery mode instead.
