I am having issues with the screen turning on and staying on sometimes without any notifications and sometimes with. Sometimes this will happen over night and I will wake up to a warm Note 4, warmer than gaming. This happens with the screen time out set at 1 or 2 minutes. I have not experienced it happening with a time out of 15 seconds. I am using lock screen notifications with hidden content and would like to stay that way if possible. Developer options and keep screen on while charging are disabled. I disabled wake screen notifications on snapchat, switched my sms app to handcent next sms and disabled wake screen from notifications.

Have you had any issues with the custom kernel?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] ajmdve:
I live in south America so no warranty. And I already have a refurbished unit. So nothing to do with the camera?

I've read some post from someone saying that he used a custom rom and the problem got away. But I tried with no luck to flash that rom ending in bootloop.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] vponomarev:
Based on your earlier reply, looks like you're 100% stock now. Right? If so, you will need to flash a custom kernel before being able to flash custom ROM. This was discussed earlier in this thread.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] ajmdve:
thanks for your reply, i was in fact 100% stock, but last night i rooted using twrp and beast kernel. im not sure what rom to try. i was trying rapture but the procedure to 5.1.1 becoming from 5.1.1 is not completely clear. so i ended up in a boot loop. i was trying that rom because someone said that his phone problem were gone using it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Bruce lee roy:
How do custom kernels compare to stock in terms of battery life and performance?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] DeeXii:
A kernel like emotion would depend on how it is tweaked with a kernel tweaking app etc.

BeastMode is currently stock with the root restriction removed so it is a stock experience.

Historically speaking and eventually BeastMode will have some minor performance tweaks which slightly affect performance and battery life for the better.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] starovdarkness:
Just wanted to say ... WoW!!! :D

Am so glad I took the time to try out this newer firmware and rom.

Running better than ever now it seems. Not a single problem yet, downloading much quicker as well it seems...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Phone77:
Figure it's best to ask here rather than start a new thread.

Since the T3 can't flash any ROMs that aren't 5.1, it's there any reason not to update to DOK2? T3 never had the ability to downgrade bootloader and use 4.4/5.0 ROMs, but all the other ROMs work fine with the new update, correct? Pretty much nothing lost and better signal gained, right?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] yoyobabyyo:
I upgraded to DOK2 from Lollipop 5.0.1 a couple weeks ago on my T-Mobile Note 4, but yesterday I started noticing very strange behavior with my phone. It would freeze and lock up a lot, and holding the power button to force it off did not work. After googling, it seems like others have had similar problems and said it was due to the fingerprint scanner. However, even after disabling the fingerprint scanner and doing a factory reset, the issue is still there.

This post from a user at another forum summed up exactly what I was experiencing:

My phone is stock and has never been rooted or modified. Does anybody know what might be wrong?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Supamike88:
Is it worth using the new App Optimization that came with the update?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Bruce lee roy:
Have you performed factory reset and formated internal and SD card from phone settings?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] notufatjesus:
I'm having the same issue. However, I'm rooted. I'm assuming it's a hardware issue. It's an internal memory failure, so I'm literally about to wipe this phone a few times, and Odin flash firmware 2 times back to back. Will report back to see if that fixes anything. My theory is that moisture somehow has messed with the internal hardware. I often shower with hot water and my phone is in the restroom charging. That's my assumption. ..or condensation from a cold room to a hot room. Idk. Hopefully I get this figured out.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] chodaboy19:
I upgraded from 4.4.4 and I find 5.1.1 DOK2 to have seriously poor battery life. I am getting about 50% of what I used to get with 4.4.4.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Baenwort:
I'm glad I came across this thread. I've been having the same issue as you described starting on about day 4 after I updated. I've factory reset from recovery and it didn't help. I've never used the fingerprint scanner so I'm at a loss at what is the cause. There has been no change other then updating and I keep my phone in a otterbox defender.

Has anything worked for you?? I tried reinitializing via Kies but I had no luck.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] ShrekOpher:
Do a factory reset, then ODIN flash the stock firmware. Taking an OTA is never a great idea. Seems like sometimes the files get messed up during the OTA download.

One way to avoid that is to only download the OTA on wifi where you have a good solid signal.

My battery life on 5.1.1 has been amazing. I'm running stock firmware. I am rooted and debloated though. Seems like many people are still having issues. I may make a new thread with step by step instructions on how to get 5.1.1 running smooth. Anyone interested?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] chrisrj28:
Sure I wouldn't mind seeing that
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Willy318is:
Guys, I have the exact same Freeze, it's like 3 to 4 seconds freeze, so it's nothing normal by all means, could the internal storage be falling?

Has anyone confirmed that Factory Reseting then ODIN DOK2 Complete Firmware fixed this?

One last question, Do I factory Reset using TWRP? before Odin Dok2?

Funny thing is THIS LAG HAPPENS IN RECOVERY as well, it just freezes for 3 seconds when I'm going through the menus, of course tried different 5.1.1 ROMs and the lag remains, tried formatting Cache and Dalvik too.

Please share your thoughts
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] chodaboy19:
Yes, I would welcome this information. Thank you. :good:

Okay I put together the process I used to setup my device on DOK2 and have it running smoothly.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] mtran1977:
I'm getting the freezing and lockups on freshly odin'd DOK2 also. Sometimes I have to pull the battery to restart the phone. I've also seen the mmc_read error a couple times. Stock recovery sometimes takes a long time to initialize. The phone is pretty much unusable now.

Does anyone know if T-Mobile's Advance messaging and video calling work with the Beastmode kernel? Trying to track down the reason why mine isn't working.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] AlexusJ:
Upgraded my stock Note 4 910T which had 5.0.2 to this T-Mobile's stock version of DOK2 - so far it's running well. The "lag" that often happened with 5.0.2 is now gone, all menus feel smooth (this is with stock launcher). Battery life doesn't seem to be affected in any way - it's not worse or better. Video calling works fine, though you do need to be on LTE or enable Wi-Fi calling for it... No random reboots of any kind so far. Not sure about fingerprint sensor - I never use that because it's not a very reliable way to unlock the phone (even on newer Samsung phones like S6, which I also have) and the PIN code seems to work fine so far.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] beast3300:
Beastmode works, yes.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] chodaboy19:
I think I found the culprit after 2 days of googling and countless wasted hours. My specific problem was that Media process was running all the time which in turn was causing Google Play Services to run at all times.

The Media process includes 2 packages: Media Storage and Download Manager. Together they perform scanning and indexing of media files on the internal SD and external SD.

I came across this page:

http://geeknizer.com/fix-android-media-server-scanner-sdcard-cpu-battery-drain/

I did step #3 which states that having more than 1,000 files in a folder makes this process crap out. I reformatted my microSD card, then I copied back all the files to the microSD. Then finally I deleted most of the pictures so that no one folder had more than 400 images.

I rebooted my phone and it started to behave normally. The Media Process only ran for 5minutes and stopped. Google Play Services ran for 2min and stopped. I have been through 1 charge already and got 5hrs or so of screen time with heavy use, I was installing apps, configuring accounts, freezing apps with Titanium backup, etc.

Overall, it seems like I have a happy ending to my story, BUT I will post a followup if the phone craps out again.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] whatsitsnamenow:
Can anybody tell me if the DOK2 firmware has any new languages? I'm mainly looking for more Chinese languages. A screenshot will help if you don't which one is Chinese. Thanks
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] thiennvbk:
same to me, and I don't know how to come back the good note 4 before :(

I think update to DOK2 is the big mistake :(

hope a way to flash COG2 back
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] DeeXii:
Even when you did a "odin'd" DOK2 did you do a full wipe? (cleared data, cache, dalvik etc)?

If you did not then do it. There has to be something else going wrong.

Your problems are not wide spread. Many many people are having a great experience on DOK2 (when compared to DOG1).

I personally have a N910T and a N910T3 and they both are like butter.

The only other thing it could be is a hardware issue. I assure you it is not DOK2 itself. If it was DOK2 then everyone would have the problem and that is not the case.

Also yes, once you update the bootloader to DOK2 you cannot go back to DOG2.

The only other
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] ShrekOpher:
Does not look like it?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] whatsitsnamenow:
Ok. Thanks
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] mtran1977:
I'm going to bring the phone to T-mobile. I re-partitioned using a pit file, and did a full wipe using stock recovery which formatted the data partition.

I was able to flash stock dok2 after a 4-5 tries. Odin and the phone reported nand write errors in random spots the first couple times. I'm afraid to flash again because I fear i will completely brick the phone.

The phone sometimes freezes, crashes and/or reboots, probably due to slow or failing write operations. Most of the time I can't unlock the phone the first time because the phone freezes and lags on the lockscreen. I'm only using swipe-to-unlock security.

I never experienced these problems on previous firmware versions. It could just be a coincidence.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] vprasad1:
Anyone been daring enough to stay on COG2 bootloader and try installing one of the DOK2 based ROMs? Would they work with only the DOK2 modem update? Or does it definitely require the DOK2 bootloader?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] beast3300:
You can do DOK2 modem with any bootloader but keep in mind this is the GSM modem (4G HSPA, 3G. 2G).

You can do any DOK2 rom with COG2 bootloader and/or modem.

----------------------------

If you want the best possible experience then ODIN the DOK2 package for your phone (T or T3). This will flash the 1 bootloader, 2 modem (modem.bin) (baseband version you can see in about device), and 3 the LTE modem (non-hlos.bin).

------------------------------

Keep in mind you can't reverse from the DOK2 bootloader. You can flash any modem though (COG2, NK4) at any time.

---------------------------

Personal preference:

I like as much as possible to match. Kernel, modem, bootloader, lte modem.

---------------------------

Actual experience or improvements:

I'm on DOK2 everything except the kernel because there isn't a "T" model kernel based on DOK2 that does root. (I see a systemless root has been developed but I haven't looked into it).

I think the modems' performance is a little better for me. That is all I can't really say. T mobile coverage in my area is better than decent, so I didn't have any complaints.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] vprasad1:
Nice! Any "gotchas" or quirks?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] beast3300:
Some have data disconnects using a COG1 modem (Android 5.0.1) with newer 5.1.1 ROMs but I didn't.

You do have to flash the modem twice in a row with odin. If you are only doing the modem. (It doesn't stick of you only flash it once.)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] blindskater39:
Hmm this may be why I am starting to get random reboots, it has happened in and out of the gallery though.

My camera doesn't work after the update to 5.1.1, why?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] rile1564:
Do you full wipe after updating? Every since the 5.0.1 update I do several full wipes in a roll. My phone is stock /never rooted and runs like a dream. Camera improved after 5.1.1.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] H3dgehog:
I got the phone, camera worked fine.

Then I went for updates, straight up no wipes afterwards because I was in aware.

Could it be a kernal issue?

I flashed a kernal on here.

My front camera works fine but I cannot connect to rear camera.

I've done several wipes, flashed roms, reset phone (not in that particular order. So its either my kernal, or something deeper
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Bruce lee roy:
You should do full wipe after every major update.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] H3dgehog:
So what do I do now?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Bruce lee roy:
Perform factory reset, perform wipe on internal and external storage. Let settle for a couple days.

How to update to DOK2 *noob*

I changed my n910t to cm 12. 1 a few months ago but the abstrk rom for the device looks really nice. I get bored of my ui very fast and change often. Anyways it says to change my bootloader to DOK2 and I have threequestions.

How do I check my bootloader version?

Where can I find download for DOK2 and can I flash using twrp?

How do I update bootloader version?

Thank you.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] S5Sickness:
since i updated i can't load a rom... not one dam rom...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] ctrlaltdeln:
Backup everything, then wipe everything. I would start by reflashing the dok firmware again, the entire thing, not just bootloader and modem. Let it boot once. Then Odin recovery, wipe, flash rom of your choice.

Also i wanna share something:

I managed to clock the kernel on 1600mhz....

But then when i checked states..all the time kernel remained on 1000mhz. see attachment. Also the cpu always showed offline...and that's funny as our phone got only 1 core and if that too becomes offline...how the hell will then our phone be working?

Then i reverted back to stock kernel....and there too cpu0 was seen offline....is that even possible?

Hope this helps you in figuring out the problem.:fingers-crossed:

r10 is for all roms

flash it using a cwm recovery

The download link's broken.....in the thread...can u provide another?....i'm using uc mini

disable speedMode or use a browser(ucb) js enabled
[Samsung Galaxy Star] Sansky12:
That kernel didn't boot my device....

although there was boot sound but there wasn't any boot animation.....just a black screen....and It just stuck in that black screen.....

I've moved on to cm11 ....irritated by stock.....

thanks for your suggestions anyway:svetius:

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] apd:
As I understand it FlexMail uses a different method of pushing (IMAP IDLE rather than Direct Push).
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] eaglesteve:
Thanks Ninja1 for your info.

Have you tried it? Can you share your experience with us on FlexMail 2007?

If it has the feature that I look for, the method of pushing does not matter to me I guess.

I'm now playing with the trail version. Will report how well it satisfies my requirement of mailing list, and push mail.... Thanks again Ninja1

Edit:

I don't see the mailing list feature any where within flexmail. Or may be it is a well hidden feature. How do I create a mailing list containing a group of email accounts, so that I need not compile this each time I need to send mail to a group of people?

I'd like a clone of the Iphone's email client. I hate to harp on about it but this is Apple's FIRST attempt and it's pretty much the mutt's nuts.

Microsoft's attempt at HTML email in comparison is ugly, unfriendly and clunky...I mean what's all that 'scroll right' bollocks about??? Just show us the f**king page in a smooth, user-friendly way, allow us to add multiple accounts and switch them on and off as and when required and we will all be happy no doubt.

I've come back to a Windows Mobile device from an iPhone (perhaps because I'm sadistic) and I'm really lamenting the lack of features which I iitially deemed 'showy' on the iPhone when I first saw Steve Jobs showing it off.

I expect that Apple have poached all of Microsoft's best programmers, or else Microsoft have been dedicating 0.0002 percent of their focus to the Windows Mobile O.S.

Sorry for drifting a little off-topic. I will persevere with my Windows Mobile device in the interim and will also be on the hunt for a genuinely enjoyable and multi-functional Email replacement for Windows Mobile - or praying that they see fit to update the built-in one and stem the tide of XDA regulars pouring to Steve Jobs' door.

Let's face it - we've got more options than ever before - Microsoft now have a lot of competition and surely cant afford to keep making applications with the drab look of a chinese Cect iPhone clone's menu system, and relying on HTC to pick up the pieces.

Soon HTC and their incredibly talented programming team will bugger off to Android and we will start to see PROPER email clients, FULL ports of Openoffice, Thunderbird, Google Chrome/Firefox and Pidgin for example - on an open-source network.

I just hope that Microsoft get their act together before my upgrade arrives in february or else this time I'm gone for good.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] stargator:
I sure agree with Leoni

I just checked my wife's iPhone and I must say the email client is just too good , sent a couple of my HTML emails and I must say it was just the way as they appear in normal outlook.

I am having a Touch HD 800x480 screen and I get to see crappy links while my wife with a

iphone 480x30 screen sees just super HTML emails with all the proper formatting and pictures.

Come on MS , give us a proper email client , after all these years we are in 09 for pet's sake.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] colonel:
since we are off topic, might as well continue.

I have a BB 9000 for email and I still think BB is the most bullet proof email.

Recently I went to a Nokia E71 and the email client reminds me of the MS one, although it seems to rend emails better.

Ultimately as I have a yahoo email account, i don't really need internal email clients and yahoo2go version 3 is just excellent. It is available for symbian, BB and WM. unfortunately the yahoo2go client looks cr@p on the Athena VGA display - hopefully it will be updated for VGA WM soon.

Also, have you tried profimail ? I hear it is good. its not technically push, but set up with IMAP you won't notice the difference. There is a trial version

Hi everyone!

Today i visited the sony care point to discover that my phone isn't covered by warranty anymore, due to fact the internal LCD had a crack (despite never dropped in recent times).

Anyway, no worries... my warranty will end in a couple of days.

So... I want to attempt to fix it myself. I'm not experienced, but I work all day mounting PCs and servers, i think this will be a little diffent but not too hard, right?

Can anyone suggest me how and where to buy the entire frame and the LCD of the phone? (I want to keep it waterproof)

I saw many websites, but I don't trust most of them, so a good reccomendation is really useful here.

Also, what set of tools is reccomended to do everything? (Can i use my hair dryer to unglue the screen?)

Many thanks and sorry for my english being so bad, is not my native language.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D33KK:
I'm not sure how to replace the screen on the Z1, but I'd warn you against relying on its waterproofing after replacing the screen. Unless you can perfectly fit the rubber seal so there's literally no gap, the water will enter your phone.
