Hmm ... bare with me as I attempt to sort this out. I used the following instructions to unlock the bootloader on my Note 4 SM-910V:

How to Root & Unlock Bootloader on Galaxy Note 4!

In short, the process involved gaining temporary root and then quickly running a script in the adb shell as super user to unlock the bootloader before root was lost. After this was done, I simply flashed the modified stock ROM provided in the instructions (again, this is essentially the retail ROM minus the retail bootloader). My understanding is that I didn't actually install a new bootloader during this process but simply unlocked what was already on the phone.

Following this, I used the steps listed in my original post to install CM13 and Gapps. Note, I did not (at least to my knowledge) modify the bootloader during this process. Does this mean that I (perhaps in error) used my Android 5.1.1 bootloader to install Android 6.0 via CM13 and just got lucky that the device didn't brick, or did the flashing of the CM13 ROM automatically upgrade my bootloader and modem? Conversely, when I reflashed the modified retail ROM after realizing that CM13 was bugged, effectively downgrading myself back to Android 5.1.1, did this automatically downgrade my bootloader and modem or did I simply maintain the same bootloader and modem version through this whole fiasco?

Hopefully I'm not being overly obtuse here. I understand the concept of the device firmware (i.e. bootloader) versus the OS software (i.e. ROM). I assume this to be similar to the concept of BIOS vs OS on a PC. It's just not clear to me how or if I've modified the bootloader aside from unlocking it through the steps I've taken thus far.

Thank you for your time!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
Flashing a custom ROM such as this one in no way changes your modem/bootloader. Your first paragraph is essentially correct.

Installing a custom ROM on the wrong bootloader shouldn't brick a device. Flashing CM13 did not upgrade your firmware. Modem/bootloader need to be installed before ROM, and are not included with custom ROMs. Your bootloader and modem remained constant throughout.

If you're on the BPA1 bootloader, then you can install the 5/25 build. If you're on CPD1, I'd recommend Jasmine until the next usable build is released of CM13
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] night825:
everything is ok but camera app. stock camera forced stop if i change any function. 3rd party camera app also have similar problems. Anyone get bug like me?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] syrenson:
Thank you again for the very clear explanation. I did some research on how to look up my bootloader version. It seems as if there isn't a general solution for every phone. Some folks suggested trying to grep it out of adb bugreport, some suggested typing *#1234# into the dialer (this seems to be a dated solution), others suggested rooting and digging deep into /system to find the info in a particular file. Ultimately, I opted for installing the app Android System Info (also known as System Info for Android) from the Play Store and giving it a try. Under System > BuildInfos it does have Bootloader as an entry and it lists my bootloader version as N910VVRU2BPA1. This would suggest that I am, indeed, on the BPA1 bootloader (which I am assuming also implies something regarding my modem version as well ... ?).

I cannot attest to the legitimacy of the Android System Info app aside from the fact that it has good ratings in the Play Store. If root is, indeed, required to access the true bootloader version then I have to assume this app is just inferring the bootloader version from my phone model and Android version. Alternatively, it may be accessing it in a way similar to adb, which I would assume to be legitimate. On the plus side, I am learning a lot thanks to you generous folks and I should be better positioned for flashing future Cyanogemod ROMS. Thanks so much!

Using your phone, go to settings>about phone. Your baseband is the modem version.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] nageswarswain:
Is the 2g 3g toggle works?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
[MENTION=7546710]syrenson[/MENTION] and unless you've for some reason flashed a modem without also moving to the corresponding bootloader, your baseband should also be your bootloader version.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] NJDEN:
What is the difference between this CPD1 and this version?

I flashed the first variant of CPD1 and was looking to flash the second version in anticipation for the new CM builds. I figured I'd get CPD1 and use Jasmine until CM was more stable, but after I flashed the first version of CPD1 I attempted to move to the second version only to have Odin report it failed. At this point I'm running the May 25 CM build on what I think is CPD1 (I know that's a no no). When I go to settings CM reports I'm running BPA1, but the last ROM I had was the one that came bundled with this version of the CPD1 firmware. Is there any place I can check to confirm what firmware I'm running, or is it certain that my CM ROM is reporting correctly.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
The first version is the stock BPA1 ROM with the CPD1 BL/modem. The second one is the full stock CPD1 firmware. The first version is the one you need to get the unlocked bootloader.

If your baseband information in settings shows BPA1 and you didn't separately flash the BPA1 modem then you're on the BPA1 bootloader.

Can anyone tell me about fingerprint ? we got marshmallow modern ..

thanks
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
As with every version of CM13, you need to do an extra swipe at the end, so the Finish screen pops up twice or more. You can just tap Done to exit out of the screens that come up and your print should be registered. If it only comes up once, you need to try again.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] vvverma:
I use Unofficial cm 13 build (25 may) and unlock with fingerprint is not working , so i read on Note 4 international version we will get working fingerprint after samsung official launch marshmallow so I hope this time it will work. Did you try it ?

thanks
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
If you're using the marshmallow modem, you shouldn't be with 5/25. Assume that's the cause of any problem you have
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
The fingerprint's always worked with CM13 and the 910V. It's just finicky, like on every build of CM13.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] vvverma:
fingerprint is working but unlock with finger is not working for my case

I follow unlock bootloader on marshmallow and I am successful so I flash cm 13 (june build) and I feel there is problem with gaps because every time I boot up my settings , google play service & media.something

crashed .

If you found the solution please reply me

thanks
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] douger1957:
Flash another ROM. The June 20th version is not ready for prime time.

If I might offer a suggestion without coming off as an asshole: read the thread before you flash, and look for personal show stoppers. You could save yourself a lot of time and trouble. If you'd read this thread you would have seen that no one has successfully flashed the June 20th ROM.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] vvverma:
Now I update modern , now jasmine rom and other Safe to MM rom available which is based on touchwiz :(
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] douger1957:
If you did the Marshmallow bootloader unlock properly, there's no need to flash a modem.

The only ROM I'm aware of right now that you can flash is Jasmine ROM.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
The latest PaulPizz also works well.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] douger1957:
Thank you. I'll look into it.

[ROM] [6.0.1] CyanogenMod 13.0 [Jun 22, 2016]

I've added a new build to DEVDB Downloads. This build uses proprietary blobs and configs from the latest Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow (N910VVRU2CPD1). You need to be on Marshmallow firmware/modem and bootloader (check this!).

WiFI Calling is enabled (and all required blobs/services are included), but not tested. It may just work or cause issues. I guess you'll have to enable Advanced Calling and WiFi Calling on your Verizon account. You may also search in Setting for "calling" to turn it on/off.

For fingerprint, it works perfect for me and I added many fingers. You may just need, at the end of fingerprint enrollment, to swipe quilckly one more time so that you get two "Done" messages.

You can force enable fast charging for any USB cable in Kernel Adiutor.

Changes:

If you'd like to support this work, you may donate here. If you couldn't donate, you can definitely hit the THANKS button bellow :good:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
Haven't thoroughly tested beyond going through setup (disclaimer: did a reboot after optimizing apps and before going through setup just to be safe, probably not necessary though) and calling my own number in the stock dialer, but that went flawlessly so I can vouch for 6/22 being a functional, usable build. Thanks hsbadr!

Default APN is still Straight Talk. Not sure how big of an issue that is, but worth mentioning

---------- Post added at 06:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 PM ----------

The auto-exposure issues I mentioned for 6/20 are still present in 6/22. Front camera is perpetually very dark, and main camera (only in video) does not change exposure automatically.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
If it can be switched, I personally don't care. I took a look at the APN settings and didn't notice anything different between the two, but idk much about how they work.

---------- Post added at 10:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

Don't know how you do this so quickly, but I'm so glad you do :D.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
The toggle for Wi-Fi calling (must be searched for in Settings) keeps resetting itself to Off whenever I reload that page of Settings, and attempting to place a call from Airplane Mode results in me being asked to turn off airplane mode.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
It does that for me even on TouchWiz's dialer (and with the Google dialer on TW). I think the only way to test it is to actually go somewhere without service.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
I never had the issue on TW

---------- Post added at 07:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:21 PM ----------

I've got a really bizarre new issue. Placing my thumb somewhere in the middle of A and S on the Google and AOSP keyboards results in the device somehow acting as if I've pressed the f key. Much more frequent on Google Keyboard

How does one enable Advanced/Wifi calling on the Verizon account?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
You can only add the HD Calling service from My Verizon. You have to actually enable WiFi calling from a TW ROM.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
Oh okay. If I've already done that I should be good, right?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
I can't get the option in CM settings to actually turn on. I can set the switch to on, but nothing actually shows up in the preference pane, and going away and back shows it as off again (like it was said earlier). I think something else might have to be done.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
I set preferred Network mode to LTE and mobile data to off, and tried making a phone call.

It failed with the message "cellular network not available". So I don't think wifi calling is working.

Also, on the camera issue, the auto exposure problems are not present in Open Camera.

---------- Post added at 01:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:07 AM ----------

The issues are also present in Google Camera
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mbr007:
No more errors on setup...WiFi won't turn on and camera is not focus.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
I strongly suspect you're on the wrong bootloader and/or modem. Most likely both.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] sulpher:
6/22 is rocking~
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
6/22 feels like it's even faster than 5/25, if that's even possible. I love it so far!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bricewalkuh82:
How is the battery life?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
It's either equal to or better than TouchWiz.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
Can't yet comment on battery life. Can only say it isn't worse than 5/25.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
I guess it is a little early.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DerangedLoofah:
Is it stable enough to be a daily? I consider the new 6.0 jasmine to be a stable daily, and 5/25 was stable for daily too...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
Very stable so far. No FCs, Google stuff works.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DerangedLoofah:
Sounds good! Love this dev!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
I think we all do :p.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
It's very very stable. I've only experienced improvements over 5/25. 3rd party cameras resolve the auto exposure issues found in the stock and Google camera apps

---------- Post added at 03:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:26 AM ----------

It seems I can only register three fingerprints. 5/25 and earlier allowed me at least 4 :(

That's the end of the world right there
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] NJDEN:
I got my CPD1 debacle figured out and have been running the Jun 22 build for about 5 hours. I installed the Nano Gapps along with all my other usual apps and everything seems to be running strong. I did a quick Bluetooth test and that seems to be functioning well. I won't really be able to give it a proper test drive until work tomorrow.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
6/22 is also very good in terms of temperature. Only issues I've found are in the stock/Google cameras apps and the missing Wi-Fi calling.

This build is really, really stable
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DerangedLoofah:
Took a leap of faith and flashed the ROM. It's good guys. No issues at all. We'll have to wait for tomorrow to comment on battery life and Bluetooth, but everything that a phone needs to function is there and good. This ROM is straight ????. So good.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] michel5891:
Can't seem to get WiFi working. It continuously says "turning WiFi on" without it ever doing so.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] raj_onu:
Make sure you are on right bootloader,

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] michel5891:
OK I should confess that I am indeed on a T-Mobile device of which I have flashed the vzw version of cm13 and have never ran into any issues, including the current WiFi issue I'm experiencing. Wouldn't flashing the vzw bootloader have an adverse effect? Such as perhaps a soft brick or brick?

---------- Post added at 08:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57 AM ----------

It just may not even work in Odin
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DrPhant0m:
Moving from a CM13 release from May on a dev edition, I just ran through the process of flashing LP, then LP/MM, and rooting with kingroot, installing TWRP, flashing JasmineROM 6.0 to turn on wifi calling, and now I just flashed the 6/22 release of CM13. It runs just fine so far... but I'm still restoring all of my internal data and haven't had a chance to run through the paces yet.

Other than not being able to turn on wifi calling (I thought flashing JasmineROM first to pave the way was supposed to work), the only thing I've noticed so far is that I have a constant notification for my SanDisk SD card with the options to either explore or eject. I can't swipe it away or get rid of it, and it persists across restarts. Anyone else have this? This is not the card that I used when unlocking. I took this 200GB card out of the phone and put it safely aside before even using Odin to go back to LP... and I didn't put it back in the phone again until after I had installed CM13 and booted it up once.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dhplap:
Thanks so much hasbadr.. Loving this new rom. Everything seems to be working great. Was wondering if anyone knows how to change or get rid of the 123456 that shows up in status bar, just on the lock screen. It's for the service provider, I'm on straight talk. Thanks. hasbadr you ROCK !!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
I think it's the OS itself that needs to know it has an emergency address set. It needs to be able to send it to VZW in order for WiFi calling to work, but activating it on one OS and then trying on another doesn't seem to work. I guess VZW sees it as a different phone.

If I get that limit, I'll try editing the DB file. Maybe I can copy the prints out, register new ones and copy them back in or something.

Hmm. It looks like we're back to having the phone soft reboot when trying to delete a print.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] douger1957:
You may indeed run into bootloop issues. Some of the guys here tried N910F/G ROMs, followed the directions to flash those bootloaders and modems, only to get bootloops. I'm not sure why a piece of hardware that is the same across carriers has to have specific bootloaders and modems (well, I can understand modems a bit) but that's the way it seems to be.

louforgiveno is working on data fixes so that we can use N910F/G ROMs. He's over in the generic Note 4 forum and I'm pretty sure he's done T-Mobile fixes for those ROMs. He's a great guy and I'm sure he'll at least look into your issue.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] raj_onu:
Using the new build almost a day, awesome build. Better battery life and i think it's faster than 5/25.

How to get rid of SD card notification from status bar. It's doesn't go away.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] revdirty:
Fantastic build, my only two issues is the sd card notification and Xposed, i lost root when i installed the lasted build. Which xposed do i need
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bicknasty:
Did you enable root in developer options?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
I don't have a problem with the SD card notification. I have a 32GB card.

Maybe try formatting it in TWRP.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] NJDEN:
I also had some pretty spotty Bluetooth today at work. It connected to my wireless earbuds, but I was plagued with intermittent choppy audio. Play & pause functionality was also flawed in the app Pocketcasts; I use the controller on my ear buds to pause, but it would often rewind my podcast several minutes upon resuming. Additionally, Bluetooth failed to find my car's signal.

Like DangeredLoofah said, these issues were not present in 5/25, which I would consider the high point of Bluetooth functionality out of all the iterations of the CM ROM I've tested.

Aside from Bluetooth I also encountered some random reboots, including one that resulted in a bootloop that was resolved with a battery pull.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Zacharee1:
It might have something to do with the new modem.

Oh you're actually on StraightTalk? I'm not sure then. I guess you could try out the other APNs for fun though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DrPhant0m:
I posted this issue in the bug reports so it can be tracked. I'm having the same issue with a 200GB samsung SD card, and I've seen others report the same issue for other sizes. It sounds like it'd be an easy fix... hopefully it will be.

This is still the only issue I've seen as far as OS stability. Smooth operation, no FCs yet.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dhplap:
That also happened to me but after I formatted it again for the second time as portable it went away. That was last night and haven't got that notification since.
