[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Kamau54:
Has anyone came across a change log yet?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Michael270:
This update makes this phone run so much smoother! Recent apps come up instantly....just wish it could of been released earlier by at&t
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] BereanPK:
Yeah, I'm not holding my breath for 6/Marshmallow.

On the plus side, battery life seems a bit better... and apps/buttons are definitely quicker to respond/load... of course, that could be also because cache wss wiped, but since this is just day 1 with 5.1.1, I definitely want to give it more time to reach the "verdict".
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] wgraz:
Updated with no problem. Took about 45 minutes to download and about 10 minutes to install. It's now faster and taking up less system ram.... however, I noticed some stupid GUI changes and other updates.

1. When turning the screen on from sleep, the lock screen fades into view where with 5.0.1, there was no fade into view. I don't like the fade in.

2. When you pull-down the notifications panel, the time in the upper left is way larger.

3. The folders created for shortcuts on the homepage have these HUGE vertical dot menu symbols. They also added a HUGE plus (+) symbol to add favorites to the folder. I really wish they took more time in developing the GUI.

4. The dialer has rules in between the numbers. I didn't think they were there on 5.0.1.

5. The new Games app cannot be disabled....only uninstalled. On 5.0.1. you could disable it.

(I had Games disabled but upgrading to 5.1.1 re-enabled it)

6. Multi-Window had an introductory tutorial which is strange since this isn't a new feature.

7. Samsung asked if they could use my phone to obtain diagnostic data or something to that effect... Don't remember exactly what the huge paragraph said.. I chose No Thanks.

8. The unlock screen swipe sound seems shorter and quieter, or something.

9. Also noticing a SmartLimits app.

Can you guys confirm this stuff? Anything else I didn't see? Thx.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] netnem:
Also looking for the .zip / odin files if someone could pull them. For some reason a long time ago when I downgraded from 5.0 to 4.4.4 my update function broke (i couldn't even get NK3 on 4.4.4 so I went back to 5.0, and update remained broken.) I'm on Cricket, but as far as I know it should still hit the AT&T servers.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jgodfrey82:
This process is worthless.. failed first 4 times, now it's telling me no update available
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] AJBinTX:
I had the update fail twice yesterday, it worked this morning after I:

1. Changed my launcher back to TouchWiz. (I typically use Nova.)

2. Cleared the download cache.

I don't know which of the two made it work, but that's what made it work for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] tallboy_maximus:
5.1.1 is Smooth

Did anyone not notice Screen pinning? That was an awesome feature missing in 5.0.1 when every other brand had it already.

Apart from that the usual stuff:

1. The animation transition to home screen is different. :D

2. Lags are non existent in this build.

3. Battery life is marginally better (have been using this new build from Friday evening)

4. Time from Lockscreen to camera (Camera startup from home screen too) is super fast, in line with 2015 flagship devices.

5. Tabs view in built in browser opens up instantly (like someone already mentioned)

Phonearena said that this version will bring a better camera but unfortunately couldn't test that claim yet. (No Camera 2.0 API though)

Overall a much deserved update though this all should've been working from 5.0.1 itself. :confused:

---------- Post added at 07:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:14 PM ----------

This one is BIG!!! The Flipboard Briefing though not used by many was super laggy even in KitKat and got worse in 5.0.1. Oh you should try using it in 5.1.1. It responds instantly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] JoseGR52:
To those of you that have updated, is there a data toggle now or do 3rd party ones work? Kind of the only think keeping me from upgrading at this point, thanks in advance
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] keithfrombm:
You ain't kidding!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] wgraz:
No Mobile Data Toggle.. I was hoping for the same thing.:( I was hoping someone would make a Mobile Data toggle .apk from another phone that we can apply.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jack man:
No data toggle. Works the same as before. Any 3rd party data toggle takes you to setting page to toggle it. I've always used Power Toggles from the play store but it still just takes me to settings. I miss the data toggle on my S3.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] keithfrombm:
I don't see a data on/off toggle like the Note 3 has. HD Widgets data toggle only links to the network settings.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] cbrinnny:
Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't recall seeing under battery settings time on battery on version 5.0.1 now on 5.1.1 we have it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] tudo1994:
Truee

True!!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] JoseGR52:
There's no downgrading to 4.4 after I update Is there?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] tallboy_maximus:
Data Toggle Workaround

The only workaround (i.e Lesser number of clicks when compared to going to Data settings and switching off Mobile data from there) for the data toggle thing is to create a shortcut to Usage Manager on your notification bar using Power Toggles or other such software. That way, when you click Usage Manager, it takes you to a set of toggles which can be switched off directly without going into settings.

Let me know if this works for you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] hoquangthaiholy:
Anyone who updated to 5.1.1 can make flashable via odin, please? I can't download it. :(

How I fixed My Install Woes

I was having trouble with the install repeadedly stopping at like 10% and here is how i fixed it. First I freed up as much space as I could, about 4 GB. Next

(this may be the most important) I went to my DeBloater app and unblocked all packages. This may be the key to fixing install troubles. After i com,pleted these steps the download took significantly longer (about an hour) and then i let it reboot and install normally. I went to settings/About/Check for update to start download after completing those two steps. PS I am encrypted still so that is not a factor.

Heres the DeBloater App if you cannot find it http://xdaforums.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] IronKicker:
I would like to request an Odin flashable 5.1.1 also. Currently my Note 4 is out of service following many update attempts. Thanks! :confused::(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] stvon11:
anybody know if its possible to connect ota and do this update if I am using the att note 4 on tmobile? I have used odin before but it erases everything and makes me start over... if possible to connect to att servers to download the update, it would be great. otherwise I hope someone can hook us up with odin files...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] bugity:
Borrow a friend's att sim card maybe to get ota
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] ExtremeRyno:
My install was flawed. Download took over six hours and phone was in reboot loop after install started. I finally got it to start in download mode (just to stop the loop). After another reboot it just went back to Android and the download started fresh. The install went through that time without issue.

I'm pretty impressed with 5.1.1. Much faster. All my problems with the earlier LP update are gone. HOWEVER, AT&T has a bunch of new bloatware and I'm getting advertisement notifications about once an hour....I'm actually pretty pissed about that. Wild Tangent? Seriously?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Black89:
Not that impressed battery life 30% with 2 hours on time. This is a day after update and it seems to have the unlock swipe lag back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] indymx:
Yeah, battery life isn't any better. And it's still very sluggish backing out of apps. Takes repeated hits on the back button to get an app to close.

I'm not very impressed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] zluishenry:
Data toggle definitive solution :D !!

I was looking for something that gives me the option of Data and Mobile Hotspot toggles and I found this app here on XDA and I just wanted to give it a shot !

And it worked perfectly without any modification on your pone, I have not tested it yet on 5.1.1 build since I'm not in an AT&T service, however the app Works like charm on 5.0.1 (OC6) build.

Of course this developer is asking for a little contribution to his hard work, something I just paid without a question. Now, the interesting part, you can download it directly from the playstore and here is the link:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] kei_kusanagi:
So if I'm not using at&t simcard I can't update to 5.1.1?

Is there a way to update via kies or odin?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] spexwood:
Kies, probably not since it usually always says that your phone is already up to date.

Odin, yes, but you'll need to wait patiently until someone can get their hands on the Odin file.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] kei_kusanagi:
And what about if someone can upload the OTA update.zip? should it works for me?

I'm not in the US, so I can't get an at&t simcard =/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jjvmax:
5.1.1 working fine with no problems

Enviado desde mi SAMSUNG-SM-N910A mediante Tapatalk
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] spexwood:
I'm not sure about the update.zip only because I've never actually used one before. It SHOULD work as long as nothing inside the zip file is tampered with. The problem is that you'd need someone who is still on Kitkat and has temp root (since there is no temp root for Lollipop on our phone) to pull the update.zip. The file is downloaded to a system directory that is only accessible with root. I think they can do that with just temp root, but I'm not 100% sure. I never temp rooted my Note 4 because there were too many issues at the time, but now I'm on 5.1.1 and can't temp root now anyways.

My update just keeps failing and I don't know why. This is crazy!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] AJBinTX:
New with 5.1.1, and annoying...

I've definitely noticed the snappiness with the 5.1.1 update, which is good. However, now whenever I connect to my vehicle over Bluetooth, it automatically starts playing music via the Samsung Music app. This was NOT happening prior to this update. I've found nothing in any settings to disable this, and have tried the Bluetooth connect and Play app to have it do "nothing" upon connection - but it is still happening. Has anyone else observed this? Anyone have any ideas on how to get this to stop?

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] njpnc:
disable Samsung music app
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] cxyjordan:
check default app setting maybe?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] AJBinTX:
Hi guys, the Samsung Music app has the "Disable" button greyed out - and there isn't a default "music" app listed at all... Maybe I need to install a separate Music playing app and that option will be viable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] emtiv334:
Is anyone else on AT&T having an issue updating? My phone is on 5.0.1 and it said there was an update available. I downloaded, it went to install, and keeps saying, "Update postponed." I can't get it to install. I even did a factory reset on my phone and it still won't install...just update postponed. Any ideas what is going on?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] boni7010:
please , for me to... because I don't have a sim AT&T.. Iam in Mexico... :crying:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] wgraz:
Try this: After your car is paired with your phone, go into the bluetooth settings and click on the gear next where your car is listed in blue. There you can uncheck Media Audio. If you don't see the gear symbol, just wait a few secs until it appears.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] gigadigit:
For some reason, can't do the OTA update. Kept getting a message saying update was interrupted. Is there a way to update through Kies? Right now Kies is saying This is the latest firmware.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] maxmad1:
Can anyone grab OTA files and upload it somewhere? If odin flashable that will be great !

Than kyou
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] tonys.94:
It would be nice if we could get some help with the Update Interrupted problem. I'm good with electronics, but even after trying everything including booting to recovery, wiping cache partition, reboot recovery, wipe data partition, reboot recovery, wipe cache again, then final reboot and new phone user setup, still get the update interrupted issue every time. It's on 5.0.1 but the one that can't be downgraded, not that I care for temp root anymore, as it doesn't have what I want which is custom roms. Oh well moving forward I have the Note 5 and Note 4, and have been looking forward to true LP 5.1.1 on Note 4 but this seems to be a continuous problem. Might try Odin flash as I have the Odin files for current firmware. I'll get back to you guys on how that goes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] brucewee:
Took forever to download and then it said it was unable to install. When I checked for an update again it said I had to wait 21 hours.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] cxyjordan:
I just had a random shutdown after updating to 5.1.1
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] datoneazn:
Same here, been through it over 6 times now. Someone said to contact ATT, but not sure how they will fix it. Also, I can no longer download the update because it says I'm on the latest version and there is no new update..

Also, to get around the time limit, change the date one day ahead. Had to do that 6 times, but still no luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] yemkoid:
Same problem here... Always interrupted and try again after 24hrs. Can we get Odin files to flash? Using carrier unlocked At&t in Nigeria
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jgodfrey82:
Also failed 6 times.. called att and they tried to push update twice, failed both times.. this is a joke
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] brucewee:
Thanks. I freed up some space on internal storage and cleared Downloads app cache and was able to install it after a redownload.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] dwcl99:
Hi all,

I had no problem updating my AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Edge to 5.1.1 and have noticed some of the performance improvements. However, there are two negatives that I have noticed since updating a few days ago.

1. Battery Life: Ever since updating to 5.1.1, my phone is eating up the battery. I used to be able to go through most of the day with moderate use and have like 50-60% of the battery left. Now after the update, I'll go 3-4 hours of little to no use, and I'll be down to 60%. I make sure to close all apps after using them, so that they aren't running in the background. I haven't made any changes to the settings, and am not doing anything differently than I was before I updated to 5.1.1. The only change is the update. I was wondering if anyone else was having the same rapid battery drain after the update? And if so, if anyone has any suggestions as to how to stop the battery drain/extend the battery?

2. Edge Screen Text Message Notifications: When I would get a text message, the text of that message would scroll one line at a time on the edge screen without me having to do anything to access the message. Well that stopped once I updated to 5.1.1. I checked both the text message settings and the edge screen settings and that feature is enabled in both places, but the text still doesn't show up on the edge screen when I get a new text message. I've restarted the phone. I've taking the battery out, left it out for a few minutes, but still no change.

Another thing that I've noticed related to text messages is that it seems that since the update, the vibration pattern for an incoming text message has been changed from what it was, but I can't seem to figure out how to change it back. I can figure out how to change the vibration pattern for an incoming call, but I only seem to be able to either turn the vibration on or off as it relates to text messages. But since the update, the vibration pattern is much weaker than it used to be, and would like to know if there is any way to change it back.

There probably are other problems that have developed since the update, but I haven't found them yet. I would like to know if anyone else is having these problems, and if they have found any ways around them?

Thank you in advance.

Take Care,

-David
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Fishdj:
Noticeable difference after updating. Didn't run into any problem during the update. Wireless charging notification is now a message rather a notification.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] spexwood:
My battery life sucks too. After only 4 hours at work with my phone in my pocket, the battery life is already at 75%.

Now, I use a Moto 360 smart watch, and because of that, I normally keep location on and use Google Now Cards. Before the update, drain was somewhat heavy due to all these things, but after 4 hours, I'll usually be down to only 90%.

I'm still trying to diagnose the issue myself. I'm doing a major change and then testing one day at a tine. Day 1, I've disabled Facebook with no improvement. Day 2 (today), I've disabled Location with no improvement. Day 2.5 (this afternoon), I've disabled Google Now Cards and am so far noticing a pretty big improvement. I can't confirm until I test this tomorrow though.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] maxmad1:
Anyone who has update interrupted problem , just get a prepaid sim from At&T and save it for future for each update of your phone. I got it for $10 with $10 talk time balance. That was the easiest way to do it for me. I hope it helps

Thank you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] dwcl99:
spexwood

I will look into the location services as well. I read somewhere that after they have these big updates, that some of the account sync settings reset to include everything, which may drain the battery, so I disabled some of the things that I don't need to sync and will see how that affects the battery drain. I have the Samsung Gear S Smart Watch that the phone is connected to, so I have to leave the bluetooth on all the time, but like you, it wouldn't eat through the battery like the phone is eating the battery now. Thank you for looking into it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] spocko:
Not a bad idea. It does appear that an AT&T sim must be installed for the OTA update to download. I had a new Note 4 with no sim card. Tried the update several times and got the "Update Interrupted" error each time. I pulled an AT&T sim card from another phone and put it in the Note 4, and then the download worked. This mean that you could also borrow a sim card from a friend to do the update. Just beware that the download is slow, so you'd need to have the sim for at least an hour.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] vengeance1281:
Tried downloading and installing it multiple times. It downloads fine, goes to install, gets to 25% and just hangs, then it reboots. Tried a factory reset and the same issue still happens.

I went to the Samsung Experience place at my local Best Buy, they plugged my phone in to their computer and their software doesn't even see the phone. Though they could still access my storage/SD card like normal.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] NYYFan02:
Downloaded and installed with no issues; can't comment on battery life yet, but the phone is noticeably more snappy! Especially the recent apps, which other people have commented on. Does anyone know if the DeBloater will work on 5.1.1 yet? Haven't had a chance to try?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Lewzephyr:
No update available for mine. In the Houston Tx area, so may just not hit my zone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jDeLaGray:
Is there a changelog written somewhere? Specifically for the AT&T Note 4?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] spexwood:
Battery is doing way better with Now Cards turned off. I keep Sync turned off, but made a Tasker event that enables sync for only 2 minutes at midnight and noon every day. So it can't be Sync. And I would only think that that thing you mentioned would be if you updated and did a factory reset.

---------- Post added at 08:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 PM ----------

I'm in Denton near DFW and got my update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] :
From what I heard, Samsung doesn't even have a changelog but at&t will probably release it soon
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] nunyabiziz:
This only applies to people in the US. You can take your note 4 to a Samsung Experience location and they can update the phone for you and for free of course
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] doubledragon5:
I hear Verizon might skip this update,and wait for 6.0.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] dwcl99:
Yeah, the sync thing really hasn't done much of anything for the battery. Playing around a little bit with the location settings has helped a tiny bit, but it is barely noticeable. I really wonder why I am all of a sudden having battery problems when most other people seem to have seen improvements to their battery life with the same update. I wonder if it is something having to do with the Note 4 Edge specifically as opposed to just the regular Note 4?

Also, this is going to be a dumb question, but what is the "Cards" feature that you talk about with regards to your Motorola watch?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] spexwood:
The Cards are a feature of the Google app. They show you things like sports updates, weather info, traffic delays, etc. It does all this automatically toi. Unfortunately, the stupid things have to be on in order to use one of a smartwatch's most basic features: reminders. So if you tell your watch, "Remind me at 12pm to go to the meeting," and it works, then you most likely have the cards feature on.

To tell for sure, open the Google app, tap the 3 horizontal dashes icon in the upper left, Settings, Now Cards. If "Shows Cards" is on, then the feature is turned on.

For me, disabling Now Cards has helped tremendously, but I'm annoyed now because I can't make reminders via my 360 anymore. My battery life began suffering right before the 5.1.1 update too, which is about the time when Google updated their app. 5.1.1 seemed to amplify the battery drain, or I just finally noticed how bad it really was.

For poops and giggles, would you mind checking if your cards feature is on and disabling it for a day if it is?

Anyone else suffering from battery drain- whether you use a smartwatch or not- can try this too.

If Cards is the culprit, then it's simply a Google app issue and Google just needs to fix it. We will need to send them feedback though so they know more than 1 person is having problems.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] kociubin:
For those who have the AT&T Note 4 but are NOT on AT&T network, here is how you can upgrade.

1) Buy a AT&T Go Phone SIM card on eBay (should be around $2-$4)

2) No need to buy any airtime

3) Once you have your SIM card, go to the link below to activate your account

https://www.wireless.att.com/GoPhoneWeb/goPhoneLanding.do?method=activatePayGo

4) During activation process, select the $30 plan. Don't worry, it won't ask you for any money or credit card

5) Once you complete the registration process, you will have 26 days to add funds to your account. During that period, you should be able to perform the upgrade.

I just tried this and it works fine.

Hit thanks if this helped you.

Kociubin, Pure genius, can't believe I didn't think of that.
