One, as far as I know. You've lost me here.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
Ya what's up with the pent up counter productive passive aggression? It is not helpful in anyway to anyone on the forum. Plus it also makes you look bad. I would say it is a lose lose situation.

Let's carry on and let's move forward with positivity/productivity.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] HunnyBearLewis:
10, I'm f4phantomii and this conspiracy goes WAAAY back...been planning my great deception since the HTC G2 days. Lolol.

On a real note, if any of the people reading had random reboots on urv7 (saw it mentioned previously), was that with this kernel or all of them including stock?

it doesnt use 1% per hour, from the kernels ive seen over the course of a day it might use an additional 5-8%
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Mtotallywired:
To get back on topic, firstly, thank you to all who have made beastmode possible. it's awesome...I've been using Abstrk rom for the past 2 months on my n910t3 and it came loaded stock with previous version of beastmode (from Nov 2015) which I didn't know until I flashed the latest 1.9.2

I was finding somehow though that battery life after flashing actually drained battery faster than the previous version on that rom. Anyone else experience that? I kept 1.9.2 for 3 days to try to let it settle in but to no avail, I've since restored back to previous version and battery is going great again.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
This seems to be the case...

This was not the only report...

The way 1.9.2 was released was fairly complicated.

So because of this I believe I am going to post a version that has not been released but has been used by me personally and has had better feedback from testers.

To everyone sorry for the confusion...

The new version will be actually an older version (1.8.2)

I am not happy with how this seems very sloppy but since the feedback has been the same I feel its better to be sloppy and go backwards then keep a kernel that people are not happy with.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jd420724:
Hey frezza thank you for bringing your beast mode kernel to the tmobile note 4! Loved your work on the sprint note 3 :good:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] edrumzz:
Your work is Much appreciated
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AlbGol:
Actually 1.9.2 has been outstanding for me on abstract rom. Couple pages back I have reported that also.

1.8.2 for some reason was the worst beasmode version that i ever had.

Ps: [MENTION=2996598]DeeXii[/MENTION] i know that this is not even ur kernel as op states, u just got permission to take freeza's work and posted here for us (thnx for that by the way) but,

why don't you make a kernel by yourself, the more choices the better. You give me an impression as you might be capable of doing that. Judging by your previous posts. If u don't know how to than its ok.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lemonade747:
Beastmod is awesome! Flashed ael and emotion kernel lastnight but emotion is really bad, ael is good but not good enough as I expect but it has a lot of profiles, governor to choose. I wonder with Beastmode which governor and I/O is the best choice for you? Or just the default one? (dont adjust anything, I mean just flash and use)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
Two questions for you...

What exactly was your experience with 1.8.2. Pros and cons...

What is your experience of 1.9.2? Again pros and cons..

Helpful details / data please not just general opinions.

Ya I only switched to 1.8.2 because I was told on more then one occasion that the battery life on 1.9.2 was worse then even 1.8.

I was running 1.9.2 since even before VeNuMuS posted it...

It wasnt horrible by any means but a couple of days ago I switched back to 1.8.2 and did notice the battery was much better and the performance is not in anyway bad. Once I got multiple reports that were matching my experience with 1.9.2 I figured that it would be good to post 1.8.2.

I'm crazy picky about performance (ask freeza) but also battery life so believe me I would not suggest going back to 1.8.2 if it was a crazy back pedal.

With all that said I'm definitely curious about what made you say 1.8.2 was the worst BeastMode ever.

I appreciate every single bit of feedback from everyone. Any kind of software development greatly benefits from the feedback from various users etc.

With that said the development, testing, and progress should be based on collective feedback and not just the feedback from one person.

There are too many variables at play...

As far as kernel development I personally do not know how to develop kernels but I am in the process of learning many knew things.

As someone with a marketing / business background I would not post anything that isn't on point and suitable for the public.

As of right now Im just messing around and learning. Though it is an interesting idea. :P
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] seraphyz:
generally speaking the defaults work the best for most people, there isn't really much to change in beastmode since theres no customization added
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
I would say try them all...

It seems that different people have different desires when it comes to the balance of performance and battery life.

Also people are experiencing different things on different ROMs so there really is not an answer to your question. :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AlbGol:
1.8.2 was very slow in all areas u can think of. Battery was half of what i got with 1.9.2

As soon as I switched to 1.9.2 the phone was flying, very very fast. And battery of consistency 6.30 to 7 hr of sot with 24 hours of overall usage. I made the comparison in 3 different roms, and the same results.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lemonade747:
Do you use ZeroLemon battery or just a stock one? I'm testing ael kernel with clean flash and it's not bad as I think, worth comparing to Beastmode maybe. Let me use it for 3-4 days and give some results.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] free4flight:
I second that... I really like 1.9.2 and I think you should keep it available along side the others. I have not tried 1.8.2 but don't really see the need.

I am staying with 1.9.2 and would appreciate Freeza continue to develop it. Thanks
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] seraphyz:
1.8.2 is much better battery wise and with similar performance, all of us who are on it are getting 7-8 hour sots
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
He will but there is only so much a kernel needs to do...

During the testing process the goal is to have a good balance of performance and battery life..

Obviously killer performance means nothing if the battery drains...

Much like killer battery life means nothing if the phone is sluggish...

I encourage you to please try 1.8.2 to if anything just provide your valuable feedback from another person.

Don't look at the version numbers they are simply numbers. The testing since 1.8 has been trial and error. Things were removed things were added back.

One should not judge by versions numbers alone. freeza could have made one called 1.9.3 and it actually could have been 1.8.2 and people would not have been hesitant to test it. The only reason it says 1.8.2 is because we didn't go and change the number.

Again the main reason for 1.8.2 is several have not been happy with the 1.9.2 battery life.

So since 1.8.2 was never released previously, lets see what others, including you [MENTION=4266527]free4flight[/MENTION], have to say about 1.8.2. :)

I'm not here to try and push some kernel that I personally think is "BEST" the kernel really has been based on the feedback of those that test it.

Since only a handful of people were testing it previously I feel its best that more test and give the feedback.

(Stolen from the Microsoft playbook *cough, Vista, cough,Windows 8, cough*)

I thank everyone for all testing, feedback, and for being patient. :D
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Santos89:
1.8.2 doesn't have the ZeroLemon fix right?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] free4flight:
Ok, I have flashed 1.82 and will run it a few days and see how she performs, battery life, etc... and will get back with my thoughts

about it... chat soon. :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] carmona_sc:
Hey guys quick question, I've been running beastmode 1.9 on my girls phone with tek rom. It was at 50% and it just dropped to 15% after a reboot using browser? Any ideas.

BTW no kernel tweaks running , only xposed framework with 4 modules
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] free4flight:
Quick update on 1.8.2... after a few hours, I noticed I could not run Poweramp which is my favorite music playre, said it couldn't confirm licensing and I did buy the license. Said one possibility was "lucky patcher" which is on my phone but I don't use it. Never had any issues before, but I had to uninstall lucky patcher and reinstall the license from play store and re-sign in to google. Also tried to update a samsung app and it wouldn't let me, not sure why. Never had this problem with other kernels. Not sure why 1.8.2 would cause it, but... battery life so far seems to be about same as 1.9.2 but I noticed my hotspot doesn't seem to be as far reaching as before, meaning distance away from the phone. to laptop. I feel like better battery is one thing, but not if it sacrifices performance. Not looking for the best possible performance, just don't want to lose the performance I had. Will keep an eye on it and report back.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] seraphyz:
make sure you wipe dalvik and cache
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
None of the things you mentioned (app licensing, hotspot range, etc) have anything to do with the kernel, we'll at least in regards to the edits changes between any of the BeastMode. The things to look for are really just snappiness and battery life. I would suggest using it for a few days before drawing a conclusion. Also yes to rule out any platform related issues I would wipe dalvik and cache.

I definitely appreciate you helping out and providing feedback.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] free4flight:
I wiped dalvik and caches 3 times before and 3 times after....

Sure thing... not giving up on it, just reporting what happened which has never happened before from flashing a kernel, in my experience. :)

Not bad at all for how I use my phone with 1.8 2
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] skywalkerjedi7210:
Hi! I've been using the ZeroLemon fix and battery just drains fast and I watch the stats like it's a timer.

I downloaded the 1.8b but settings says I'm using 1.8. How can you distinguish it from each other?

Thanks in advance!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] seraphyz:
cant just have to make sure you downloaded the right one
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lemonade747:
Flashed 1.8.2 last night, did a simple test the same as when the phone was in 1.9.2: let the phone idle with alarm turns on. After 7 hours (from 11pm to 6am), it drained 0% (amazing!) while in 1.9.2 that number is 2% (the same in AEL v8.9 kernel). About SoT, over 50mins (with 17mins playing game, really heavy game, the rest is chatting and web browsing) and it dropped to 89% (with my experience in playing that game, it'll drop atleast 10% in 15mins). So a quick feedback is that, let me use it for atleast 3 days, let the phone stable itself, then more reports will come ^^ thanks for this great kernel
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] seraphyz:
yep, 1.82 is miles ahead of 1.9.2 in terms of battery life with similar performance
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
Thanks for the feedback!

Just curious, What ROM are you on?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Thrash213:
Well every device is definitely different.

I seem to get better battery life with beastmode 1.9.2.

I tried 1.8.2 yesterday and my battery drained much much quicker and lost more battery overnight.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AlbGol:
Yes it looks like 1.9.2 is the best performing version for a lot of us.

To bad [MENTION=1843791]VeNuMuS[/MENTION] got the new s7edge lol, and abandoned us. It looked like it was on the way to be the perfect kernel for the N910T.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] VeNuMuS:
Hahaha. I wouldn't call it abandoning. Just moved on. I did however try the 1.8.2 for a while and noticed a few issues. Since it favors lower frequencies, it makes Bluetooth streaming to my car nearly impossible, it starts cutting off constantly. Also it takes a good 3-4 seconds for the screen to wake up. Battery life was improved but at a cost to performance. Maybe a new kernel will fix it but I don't see that happening anytime soon. More tinkering has to be done to it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AlbGol:
No problem brother, enjoy ur new toy. Yes I don't think freeza will drop anything else over here anymore.

I am heading ur way to very soon
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] seraphyz:
i stream bluetooth fine here, sure its not your car lol
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] VeNuMuS:
Nah my car is beast. It's mostly when using the on board controls to skip. Takes at least 2 mins to skip. Flashed 1.9.2 and it went back to normal. Happens on my LG tones also
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] seraphyz:
mmm wierd no issues for bluetooth or screen wake for me
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] beast3300:
1.8.2 seems better than 1.9.2 for me in terms of battery life. I haven't noticed any speed loss or slow wake up. Currently on Overdrive's DOK2 rom version 5.1 because it's the last black themed release from Papamag.

To be fair though, I didn't think 1.9.2 was bad but I'm at 2 hrs screen time with 64% left. Unplug time of 15 hrs. Usually the same usage would have me at 50% battery at 2 hr screen time.

Another thing to add is, I'm fairly sure my battery is soon to poop out because sometimes around 30-20% it will suddenly drop to 5% then turn off. This has been random for the last 3 months. So, 64% @ 2 hours screen time is VERY good for this phone and battery. My friend's new T3 gets waaaaay better battery life bone stock, but I know my battery is almost had it.

I use my phone very consistently and think 1.8.2 is slightly better. YMMV

[emoji2] [emoji2] [emoji2] [emoji2] [emoji2]
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
What ROM are you on? Still a custom one by you? Perhaps the kernel isn't playing well with your ROM.

I'm on stock DOK2 with 1.8.2 and my screen wakes up instantly and I use Bluetooth all the time to my Alpine unit and its flawless.

Not biased to 1.8.2 in anyway. I have a pretty expensive sound system in my car and I'm really really picky when it comes to how it sounds so I would be one of the first to say something if some how my music sounded different or skipped.

Im also pickey when i comes to slowness and lag. The reason we even went beyond 1.8 is because I told freeza it was slightly slow. (ask him)

So Im not the type that is looking for some unnatural insane battery life getting there by sacrificing performance.

There is no way I would take a slow phone for killer battery life. I prefer a perfect balance.

Matter of fact all everything that is in 1.8.2 is contained in 1.9.2 so it doesn't make sense that it would behave differently when it comes.

I mean 1.9.2 has stuff added back that was in 1.8 but nothing in 1.8.2 was taken out between 1.9.2. So if that is the case one would think that any bugs or bad behavior would transfer over to 1.9.2.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
What ROM are you on?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
This is pretty much my exact same results...

I never was fanboying up with 1.8.2. I ran 1.9.2 since it before it was public all the way till a few days ago.

Its not horrible at all. However since I was on it for weeks and I switched back to 1.8.2 I can honestly say that the battery life is very different and the performance difference, if any is not noticeable to me.

It should be noted that I have been only testing on a Stock DOK2 rooted ROM.

Also now that you mentioned your battery issue I too now have a battery issue.

I was just on SimplyRoot BeastMode (Stock DOK2) and recently a few times my phone will get down to like 3% and die randomly.

When it happens the phone doesnt shutdown and show the bootlogo as usually it does. The screen goes funny and it shuts off.

Then the blue LED stays lit untill I either charge it or I pull the battery.

I wish I could say it was any kernel but it happened on a Stock DOK2 ROM and a Stock DOK2 Kernel. :(

I think my battery is dying. I wonder was is causing it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
Freeza hasn't said anything about not dropping any more kernels here at all.

The progress will continue as before. Nothing has changed at all.

The S7 is definitely dope. I grabbed one but as silly as it sounds the 0.2" difference and the rounded "edges" drove me nuts.

I ended up giving it to my wife. ;p Plus I do use the sPen for business. Bring on the Note 6!

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AlbGol:
What progress? did you speak to freeza, and he told u he will continue to develop?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
Ya, I speak to freeza almost daily...

Well he never said he was going to stop...

The other day he asked me: "Should I update you guys to 2.4?"

(when he means 2.4 he's referring to the N910P. Our version numbers have been different. So I guess ours would be like 2.0 or something.)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] yobbei:
Yes please!!!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] VeNuMuS:
I can assure you 100% that my rom is not causing this. But alas, I now have another phone to tinker with. FYI, there might be a beast mode kernel for the s7 edge.......... Tune in next time hahaha
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] masri1987:
so what's the consensus, i'm still on 1.9b right now, and i'm not dissatisfied with it, and i can't remember what it was like on 1.8.1
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] oxidation868:
Anyone know why iphones have the perception that they run smoother with less micro lag? If we own a device with more ram it makes no sense. Is it kernel related?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] seraphyz:
its the os, android is much more cpu intensive and is written alot more poorly then ios is
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] masri1987:
I meant to ask, what's the consensus OP? 1.8.2 or 1.9?

as the dev what do you recommend ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] yokozuna82:
Does the beastmode 1.8.2 have the zerolemon fix?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Wilsonb:
Two quick questions.

Does Beastmod 1.8.2

1.) Work with Kernel Auditor

2.) is double tap wake an option?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] betterthan74:
I am having these exact issues after moving from simply root to 1.82. It takes about 5 min to start happenning but it seems to coincide with streaming bluetooth, which I usually do in my car. I'm on overdrive 7.1.1

Th| battery life is great though but it's a a little too disruptive
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lemonade747:
Yes but nothing to do ^^ and about dt2w, try AEL or Emotion kernel
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] masri1987:
I'm also experiencing bluetooth streaming issues on 1.8.2 that wasn't on 1.9x

I'm on N5Xpress
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] carmona_sc:
I have Bluetooth issues on 1.9, and battery as well. My phone turns off at 50%? Going to back to 1.8.2. Running tek urv7
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] masri1987:
Eh, i've been running 1.9.2 since it was released, i don't have the powering off issue @ 50%, and i didn't ahve BT issues, but i just returned to it today, so i will report back after a few charges.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
To ALL that are experiencing Bluetooth issues:

How can this be recreated? What exactly are you doing? Simply playing music? Which app are you streaming from? Is it a internet stream or local files?

Not disputing any of these reports at all, just looking for more information...

Here's what we know:

-We now have me and a couple others on 1.8.2 that do not have this Bluetooth issue at all...

-We switched to 1.8.2 because the battery life (especially in deep sleep) with 1.9.2 was really counter productive.

(To me personally I would rather have been on stock as my battery life and performance were better on stock.)

-We have several on 1.8.2 that have reported the Bluetooth issue...

-We also now have a couple that have reported the Bluetooth issue on 1.9.2.

So now its getting inconsistent and not making much sense.

I'm wondering if there is something else involved.

Perhaps its the way the kernel is interacting with an app or an audio mod.

Please provide any details on any audio modes or apps that are being used.

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] npackman:
Running Ovrdive's N5 rom. Bluetooth in my car works well, when streaming anything from anywhere. I get the choppyness when getting directions from Google maps/navigation, or from a notification. I am sure there is a kernel setting to give the phone a bit more horsepower when needed. I have tried 1.8 and 1.9 versions and seem to have the same results. Loaded Emotion this morning and will try nav on the way to work and report.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] masri1987:
On 1.8.2 running N5Xpress 3.3D

Bluetooth streaming to my car, via spotify, causes phone to pause the bluetooth streaming and essentially freeze for about 10-15 seconds.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
So when this happened does the app actually "pause"? Will be testing today.

Anyone else.... [MENTION=1843791]VeNuMuS[/MENTION] perhaps.

Please let me know which apps you were using. :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] poor_red_neck:
FWIW, I have had 0 bluetooth issues on 1.8.2 (with zerolemon). I connect my car (Chevy Volt), Beats Pill speaker, keyboard & mouse, windows tablet and have had 0 issues.

ONLY issue I have had with 1.8.2 is when the phone is in sleep, the screen will not come on when receiving a phone call. I can hit the power button to wake the phone up, then after a few second delay the in call UI will show on the lock screen, then can open to dialer to accept call.

I have fixed the lag issues by tweaking some Kernel Auditor settings so quite happy with the performance now. The screen off incoming call issue however is livable, but a solution would be nice. I'm on TEKXodus v7 btw.
