Ram managment

One huge thing is the Ram management on the Nexus 6 vs the S6. On the Nexus 6 the apps switch between each other with no delay at all. Also I notice that in the settings----apps----running apps free ram is anywhere from 1.8 - 2.1 on the Nexus 6. On the S6 its .9 - 1.2 max. On the S6 we all know apps are shutting down completely and hesitating on the relaunch. On the Nexus 6 there is no delay when switching.

Also there is no comparison on battery life, I am at currently at 24 hrs with 47% battery left.

Another huge thing that I noticed was radio reception for the cell towers. I am getting 4 bars in my home on the Nexus 6 vs 2-3 bars on the S6. Also today at one of my clients on my S6 inside tha facility I had no or barely 1 bar reception. With the Nexus 6 I was getting 3-4 bars solid. The radios inside the Motorola device are superior to any other cell phone I have had including the iphone.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] the Doctor:
Your Nexus 6 having more free RAM has nothing to do with superior RAM management, nor is it necessarily the reason the Nexus feels smoother. More likely it has less in memory because compared to the S6 it's a very slim operating system. Google Android RAM management. TL;DR--free RAM is wasted RAM, even on a Nexus device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] cc999:
Ram

Its a known fact the ram management on the Galaxy devices are terrible. Maybe its the Touchwiz. I owned the S6 for 4 months so believe me I am not making this up. The Nexus 6 feels smoother even with a bigger display and less powerful processor.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] ¿Will-it-Blend?:
RAM management has been much improved in 5.1.1, with no hesitation in switching between apps.

The S6 and Nexus 6 are about the same on battery (I believe the S6 does a little better, not sure). Gotta look at the battery benchmarks again.

Motorola does make good radios I agree, but my S6 has given me no problems as far as reception even in places that kill radio signals.

For me the nexus is not worth it for just the updates. My S6 does everything I need it too with good battery, excellent performance, and top of the line camera, screen, and build quality. I'm glad you're enjoying your nexus 6 though, it's a decent phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] the Doctor:
You missed my point. Available RAM is not an appropriate measure of Android RAM management. You may not be making things up, but you likewise may not fully understand what you're seeing.

What does screen size have to do with anything? The screen resolution is identical :rolleyes:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Russ77:
It really isn't anything new for a Samsung on AT&T to be locked down tight, root nearly unobtainable, and slow to receive updates. Anyone expecting otherwise is either a dreamer or did t do their research.

< love my S6 and Tab S on AT&T... Locked bootloaders and slow updates and all...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] raduque:
"Free ram is wasted ram" is pretty much universal for all computing devices.

Right now I'm sitting at 1.4gb used by the System, 747mb used for apps and 454mb free ram. I'm on 5.1.1 and it feels so much more responsive and snappy than it did. Little to no hesitation when switching apps, and I haven't seen the homescreen get re-drawn yet. I also haven't had any issues with BT audio pausing and restarting itself (I assume samsung's task killer was fighting with Poweramp)

Marshmallow

"Google is planning to roll out an OTA update on October 5, bringing the new OS to the Nexus 5, Nexus 6, Nexus 7 (2013), Nexus 9 and Nexus Player

Marshmallow 6.0 will bring a 30% battery increase on Nexus 6 devices! Now The S6 needs this desperately.

Maybe mid next year if at all.

Whoa ... The 830 does get denim? I got the 830 in November when the phone was recently announced as shipping with Denim. Then sat for 7 months of no Netflix, a camera that took great pictures if you could ever get it to load, while being told the real denim update was "coming soon." Tried all the Windows 10 previews with mixed results.

I finally had enough and paid to get onto the S6 before my 12 month NEXT plan was ready. Haven't looked back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] vang2k:
Yeah the 830 barely got the denim update a week back when Windows central posted a way to flash it onto the device. The windows insider preview was all bad because it got rid of the lumina apps and most apps aren't compatible. With the denim update the 830 is a very enjoyable phone. Camera loads up quick. Speaker sounds better than the s6 imho. I always carry two phones one being windows or pure nexus or rooted of some kind. I like having options and backup phones when I flash unstable nightlies. But right now I'm all stock 5.1.1 s6 no root.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] cc999:
6.0

Its official, yesterday Google posted the image file for the Nexus 6 for Marshmallow 6.0.

True to their word Oct 5th. I am officially running it as I type and it is awesome!

Be careful as I hear the S7 may be released first qtr 2016 probably with Marshmallow 6.0,

when the S6 ATT version gets 6.0 no one Knows...........

Moral of the story ATT branded phones are terrible for updates period.

Here I am searching high and low for the latest 5.1.1 Ota. I still haven't been able to download it. Anyone know where I can download it and just flash it manually?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] vang2k:
if you check a thread out by sunderwear called stock latest odin it should be there with all the instructions. you can't miss it. make sure you have a 920A s6 before flashing because you might brick your device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Euphoria64:
I'm actually just looking for the OTA zip you received direct from the carrier. I don't want to flash the Odin tar files since it'll delete my data.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] timde9:
I don't think your quite understand while I'm sure the Samsung release is in final testing the AT&T firmware, which this conversation is all about will definitely not be released any time near to when the update is released to the unlocked variants. After the fiasco that was 5.1.1 I'd be willing to bet a lot of money that they will be the last carrier. It's really only them or Verizon the other carriers are small enough that they actually have to remain competitive and keep their customers happy. But Verizon and AT&T? Let's be real they don't give a ****. They have hundreds of millions of subs each they could care less if they lose a few nerds because they don't release an update soon enough. All they care about is loading the phone with unbearable crap ware so that Granny Smith will accidentily open their gps app and be billed $15 a month for an inferior version of Google maps. Sorry but no, no way in hell this coming out soon

I have tmobile wing and when I am trying to install any application in SD card, it by defalut goes in device memory. It's asking where you want to store and I mention SD Card, but still it goes under device/Programe Files.

Any advise?
[General Topics] xeno1:
Just to let you know, you're not alone in this problem. My MDA has been doing the same thing. I asked the same question a couple of weeks ago but never an answer to it so I'm not sure anyone know what would cause them to do this.
[General Topics] cktlcmd:
I think it depends on the application if it has support to be run from the storage card. To be sure, contact the developer. Some applications normally will install to the Main memory rather than the storage card, despite the option, because it basically can't be run from the card, so by default it will install to the Main memory.

---
[General Topics] xeno1:
Thanks cktlcmd, that's what I pretty much figured. The only thing's I've installed recently that I wanted to put on the card rather than the phone was yahoo go and google maps. The even weirder thing is that when I tried to move them to the card with pocket mechanic, both of them said that they were already on the card and wouldn't allow me to move them. So, I removed them both, reinstalled them to the phone and then moved them to the card with PM and both of them work just fine from there.
[General Topics] cktlcmd:
Yes, you are correct to point out too, that even if it installs directly to the Main Memory, then you later manipulate it to be transfered and run from the card, it will work flawlessly. So basically, trial and error does apply and remember which ones you installed to the card to save space.

---
[General Topics] pratikgr:
But the Point is, when I specifically mention to instal in Storage Card, why its being installed in Device memory. This was not the problem before. I tried to install pocketcm in sd card but still it installs in device memory. how do we change that.

hello guys,

sometimes my atrix gets stuck and when i keep pressed power-button + volumeDown-button it freezes", i mena it doesn't reboot, that happens only with the help of a charger. What could it be? Maybe's a battery issue? Once it was at about 30% and then it turned off and i had to spend a lot of time waiting until it awaken. Thanks in advance

So if anyone is having bootloop or reboot issues with this rom or any other zip

or version 5.0 for the N920T and that will solve the reboot & or bootloop issues.

I'm having the "sending" message happen with the stock messages app also. Try to send a text and the text just hangs up saying sending for many minutes... Eventually, the sending fails and a notification pops up saying the message failed to send.

Some texts seem to send ok, some don't...

Before flashing this rom, I flashed the coi5 modem. Then, I followed the OP and installed this rom as directed...

Once this issue started happening with the stock messages app, I went back and wiped dalvic & cache. I also went into the messages app and wiped data and cache.

The texts started to send ok for a while... then I started getting the "sending" message again... and eventual failed to send message.

Wiped messages app data and cache and it works again.

Not sure what other info I can provide you... not sure if this info will help.

If there is something I can do to help get you more use able info, let me know.

Besides this one small issue, the rom Is running great. Thanks for putting this rom together.

youtube 720/1080p/60 option gone?

Can anyone else check to see if the option is still there in the youtube app with DSv1? All I get are options all the way up to 1440p but not /60 anymore EVEN THOUGH the video is truly in 60fps. Mind you its clearly playing in 60fps still, but I definitely remember seeing 720/1080p and 720/1080p60 as an option in the drop down menu with my old NOTE 4 using Darthstalker v2. IS it because the latest Youtube update? if so is there a way to revert with an older apk?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Zorachus:
That is exactly same thing happening to me with stock Messages. All would stop, and just show ' Sending... ' and then I'd clear cache / clear data and reboot and that typically fixed it. But then one time it still showed ' Sending... ' even after doing that.

Installed Google Messenger, and never once had that issue.

But I know coworkers on stock S5's that said Messages sucked for texting, they all use third party text apps like Textra or Messenger. So it could just be a Samsung thing ?

After full wipe and flash of darthstalker rom I get stuck on the Samsung boot logo and the system does not start up, I rewiped and tried installing again with the darthstalker boot image instead and got the same result. Any ideas?

Adding that at the end of the install process, it says no Kernel keep previous. Does this mean that I have to install a Kernel right after installing the ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Misterjunky:
Be sure to give the initial boot plenty of time.

It can take up to 10-15 minutes.

Make sure that a full wipe includes system, data, cache, dalvik and a factory reset.

Black Themed Viper4Android

This will go great with my Black Notifications Mod for this rom.

So I looked at a lot of posted versions of Viper and there is basically only two versions when it comes to Themes. There is the Material and the Dark versions and that is it. It takes about a minute to change the apk to be one or the other.

I was surprised to not find another version that anyone has themed before. I really wanted a Black version to go with my Black notification mod.

I spent A LOT of time on this to get it themed in my version. This is NOT just going and changing the color codes from one color to another. This app has most of it's colors defined in the framework-res.apk instead. The theme you see here has NO colors changed in the framework and I have changed it so the colors are defined within the apk instead. It also is mainly programmed in smali files but most theming is done in xml files so this made it even more challenging. Once I release this, it will open the door for other themers to start theming it like I did. I have done all the hard work, no guides followed here, it was 100% all my work of figuring this out. But that is what android is all about. I am pretty happy to have figured it out and be the first one to do this from what I have found at least. Tell me what you think.
