[MENTION=4502382]Flashvetrin[/MENTION]...I'll reply to yours first.

:o...I am a bit embarrassed...I've been writing in several threads, including Mega's. In fact the reason for what I wrote, and the embarrassment is that I thought I was writing in Mega's thread, somewhat evidenced by the fact I identified the ROM I was quoting as Echo. I had posted earlier in Mega's thread about the great performance on 5.1.1 from trying Echo.

I strive to not do things inappropriate in teh forums, as writing as opposed to speaking can often be taken wrong. To the OP...my apologies.

Regarding this ROM...the performance is phenominal. The battery is no better than my stock load...for me. More on that below.

I disagree, battery life is not subjective. It is what it is. Performance, on the other hand, is very subjective. But...I agree completely with your point...everyone gets something different. Everybody uses it different.

The closest a person can come to a consistent test, in my opinion (and over the years, have had no one disagree with me on this in XDA), is to do the tests on the same phone, with the same app loads; and to take all users activity out of the picture. That is, have battery full at bedtime, leave it on the counter over night unused, and check usage / hour. This is what I do on all of my battery tests.

I agree, the ROM is incredibly fast.

I just did a 1 hour test, leaving it unused on the counter while working outside. It used 4%. I took several screen shots of the usage, but won't bore anyone here with posting them (unless someone askes me to).

I will post one:

As a reminder, I did mention that I tested the battery when I first loaded it, and had very few extra programs on it. It used .73%/hour over an 8 hour period. That is with Wifi on, Blue Tooth on (I never turn that off...use it too often); Power Saving mode off.

I now have ~ 140 apps installed, and even though I'm using Greenify, as well as Auto Starts to keep things from loading, I'm getting the 4-5%/hour usage. BTW...I have turned the animations down to .5.

Albgo...would be interesting to know how your setup compares to the above paragraph. I'd be thrilled to get 1% use in 7 hours of it sitting around. And I'm presuming you aren't the one that pulled the joke about long battery, but failed to mention it was an extended battery. ;)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Warrior1975:
[MENTION=717159]ewingr[/MENTION]-There is definitely something eating your battery. Do you use better battery stats? Or a similar program? There is no way you should be losing that much power with your phone being idle.

Did you do a fresh install? Did you play with your kernel settings at all? Maybe your min clock speed is locked at a high speed? Something is definitely up.

I don't know what someone is mumbling here thinking they are talking smart or whatever lol. Here take this fact and just.... oh well go back to kotkat man as far as i am concerned. I installed rom installed my apps i am using rom all day everything on brightness at 70% THATS IT, u dont need to get all teky to understand that.

Oh and yes i am on 910t3 replacement phone o got so maybe you are right after all, maybe its a different phone than the regular n910t, all i know is that i get this times day after day and i was never able to get this with my n910t which i send back, no matter that kitkat or 5.0.1. I did however before i send old n910t for replacement install tekhds 5.1.1 and got about 5 and half hours of sot, so that tells me that 5.1.1 is much improved from kitkat and 5.0.1
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AlbGol:
I have send you guys screenshots almost everyday that i have used this rom, take from my time to do that, just to show u guys that indeed rom is perfect and help you to make an easier decision on which rom to run, when u ask how is this and how is that.

From now on run the rom yourself if u like it good for u, if i don't find another one, as simple as that.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ewingr:
I have GSAM Battery app, that is what my print screen is from. I can't identify anything in particular eating it. Although, when I posted the lower stats (before I installed all the apps), I had posted about T-Mobile My Account using as much as my screen. Since then I had thought I had disabled it in TIBU, but, must have uninstalled it, as I can't even find it now.

I have not messed with the kernel at all. I did so a complete fresh install...well, I take that back. I was already on COG2, so I wipe, if I remember correctly, Dalvik,, system, data and cache.

I may load an app that checks clock speed.

Then with all that being said, I think I might completely reload, starting with Odin of COG2.

Did I make you mad or something? I put the emoticon to indicate I was kidding around. The threads need to be lighter.

I'm just trying to figure out why my time is so different. I realize every phone will be different.

But whatever...you don't ever need to reply to me at all about anything. Make it easy on yourself.

I'm happy you are doing so great on your phone.

I flashed this on my 910W8. It booted up but no signal. Wouldn't allow me to enter apn. Said invalid Sim. I flashed the Canadian Data fix and still no good. I was surprised it booted on the kernel that's included with the rom. Any ideas guys?

If you have a T3 you don't need to flash anything because our firmware is what this rom is based on

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gabriel1946:
Why are you worried about these guys getting 7+ hours of sot? Have you looked at their battery stats? It's obvious they set there screen to never turn off and have their brightness at half or low and leave there phone til it's almost dead than come on here and post it to get attention haha.. I mean look no apps bein used on those stats so what exactly happened with the 7 hours it was on? I've used my phone for 20 minutes off 100 percent charge and browser is showing on my stats already
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ewingr:
I'm not 'worried' about what they are getting. The comments to my posts have been that something is wrong with my load or something; and re: the 7 hour thing, I was in fact curious what he was doing vs. my testing. My testing is with phone laying on the table all night.

With regard to the fact that "...they set there screen to never turn off and have their brightness at half or low and leave there phone til it's almost dead... ", the good part of that kind of test is it takes the human interaction which you can never exactly duplicate out of the picture. But...to me, the more accurate / important test (for me ) is what battery usage it is getting while off, on the table, doing what it would be doing every day. I can duplicate that test over and over. The ROM combination that gets the best battery performance that way, while maintaining the performance I need, will be the ROM I need. Seven hours of screen on doing nothing won't do me any good.

In a nutshell, my post that started all this was about my surprise how the battery had been .73%/hr with a few of my apps loaded, then went up to ~ 5%/hr with all my apps loaded on the phone, even though it was laying on table, doing nothing (other than, of course updates etc, which I think was happening on the light load); and Greenify keep the apps out of memory.

At any rate, just for grins (nothing better to do I guess), I'm reloading this from a completely fresh load. In process now of waiting for a base set of apps to install. I odined the base, etc, and installed ROM.

So, we'll see how it goes.

My primary goal is to get good performance with all the crap I have loaded. Secondary to that is battery...but, battery is important. So, I'm going to be experimenting for a couple weeks to see which of the most popular ROMS meet my needs.

---------- Post added at 07:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:42 PM ----------

By the way, is anyone successfully using Lightflow on this ROM? I can't get it to work.

If so, I'm interested in what settings you are using for it. Maybe I'm missing something.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AlbGol:
Do u have the new phone or the n910t? If u have the regular 910t u still should be able to get around 6+ sot no matter the usage. Of course once u figure out the wakelock
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Flashvetrin:
I would install better battery stats.

Charge 100% green light full.

Pull the charge wire let it set idle for 4 hours minimum. Pull a bbs log and go

I am getting repeated text messages today.

After I did my reflash, it came up with WiFi calling enabled. I'm on AT&T, so I got error messages about an invalid phone number. So I disabled WiFi calling.

But now I am getting the following texts every 20 minutes:

122 Error Invalid Number. Please re-send using a valid 10 digit mobile number or valid short code. 0605040710000041637469766174653A64743D3135

I'm guessing this is from T-Mobile. When I reply with Stop, I get an immediate, similar message back.

Any thoughts on how to stop it?

---------- Post added at 11:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:57 AM ----------

I have the 910T

Ok. If I do in fact still have the bad results, I'll do that.

I finished the fresh load last night. Battery was great, at .70 % / hr loss while sitting on the night stand. I had the minimal list of apps installed, 86 total.

I'm going to install the rest of the apps today, and see if the quick discharge comes back. If so, I'll buy Better Battery Stats.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Flashvetrin:
Do you have this installed

Using ti backup wipe data freeze it and reboot..

See if the error goes away

Flashvetrin
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ewingr:
Thanks...I will do that and report back on success.

On an offtopic note...has anyone been finding XDA via computer to be intermittently slow, and occasionall almost frozen?

If not, it may be my internet access...although I don't seem to be experiencing it on other sites.

Impressive ⤴
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ewingr:
That's almost exactly what I for last night. I just finished installing another 30 apps. Well see tonight if it drops like last time.

I think the new load is better, because my Light flow works now

---------- Post added at 12:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 PM ----------

Well shucks. That didn't help.

I read earlier in this thread that dirty flash was ok on this ROM....if updating am earlier version of THIS ROM. I may try that fit the just released version.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jds3118:
Being OK to dirty flash the rom doesn't mean you have no problems just no major errors hahaha I always recommend a clean flash [emoji12]
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ram4ufriends:
You have to disable to T-Mobile apps, not sure exactly which one causes but one of them..may be T-Mobile my account

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jds3118:
Lol could go either way. I removed those tmobile apps[emoji4]
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ewingr:
:D ... Understood. As I had just loaded, I thought I'd give it a try. So far so good.

The apps are gone now. However, I am still getting those darned texts. (Of course I'm not saying it's a ROM problem). I'm going to pull the SIM and put it in an AT&T phone and see if it stops.

I don't know what to do if it doesn't stop.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ewingr:
Well, I've had my SIM in an AT&T Note 2 for 40 minutes now. No repeating texts.

I'm curious...anyone else out there running this 910T/ROM combination on AT&T network instead of TM? If so, I presume this isn't happening to you, or you'd be chiming in.

(I am on the V4, all TM bloat removed)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jds3118:
Sorry to hear about the texts idk what it could be. Hopefully someone will chime in with an answer for you.

I'm soooooo happy your addressing the unrestricted tethering hopefully it's working....what should I do to help? Because I really really would like unlimited tethering....
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jds3118:
On roms with unlimited tether do you get the normal tmobile message or does it bypass all that completely I don't tether anything. I guess I can tether my tablet and see if my data usage increased or not. Will let you know unless someone else has tested already?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] 3pcssuits:
It bypasses all the tmobile prompts for checking provisions and verifying ones account.

---------- Post added at 08:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 PM ----------

In the meantime till the native tethering works I just use a modded customer.xml file that allows me to edit and then I use an app called wifi tether app from the play store and follow the thread for unlimited wifi in the general thread. Works like a champ using it now to stream popcorn time.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mlock420:

Battery

With my now full load, just did a 1 hour test, and it lost 3% sitting on the table. I'll do another overnight test.

BTW, I installed Better Battery Stats. Not sure about it...it closed on me within about 3 minutes. But, then, I see various apps close from time to time.

How do I disable the potato gradient/clock?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jds3118:
You want it more stock? You can set the clock to white and have it on the right like stock or in the middle or left. Status bar set both colors to transparent for stock or leave black. There is no way to disable only remove apps and replace settings apk.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ram4ufriends:
Netflix didn't work on V4 after clean flash..also the status bar always stays black, how do I correct that?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jds3118:
Potato gradient app (in app drawer) choose 4 colors or 2 colors or same colors for status bar.

Re: Tethering Discussion

As I'm on AT&T, I'm not sure how/if any of the considerations will affect me. I was a bit concerned about it being T-Mobile tethering.

But, I did just turn it on, and am using it now. So it's working for me fine.

I'm not concerned about data...tethering is included in my plan, and I have around 50GB available (30GB plan with rollover).

I'm not on AT&T but when ever I send a text to a friend of mine who is for some reason it sends 3 times, crap iPhone I assumed but it happened before I flashed this build and still happens. He's on AT&T so I just assumed it was his network. No one else in my contacts has complained about it. Might just be a weird SMS recipient issue with that carrier.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ewingr:
From what I understand...

I guess it depends on what type of backup you are wanting, and restore. TIBU is used a lot by folks, especially if they want to restore apps plus data. I will say that there is controversy among folks as to wheter that causes problems. For sure, restoring system apps when a ROM has changed can be problematic, and can easily happen by accident.

I always use TWRP to do backups. Those backups are often referred to as Nandroid backups, I believe.

Others may have different input.
