Trust me I tried switching. But LG (who does update a bit faster), HTC and all other just can't compare with Note series. Once on Note always on note. After G3 and G4 and HTC M9 I could wait get enough dough to buy Note again.

That's precisely the reason why Samsung is like that. If they had a real competitor it would be different. And please don't even mention Apple. I'm sick of them too. Here in Croatia it costs a 2 months salary.

It's so odd that Nutella is rolling out already to nexus device, and 7 8 months latter we still dont get marshmallow on high end devices. Back in the days the excuse were CPU GPU RAM problems, now they just keep quiet and dont give us even an excuse anymore. And when the updates finally show up, has a lot of bugs, included battery and sometimes no skin redesign.

Samsung will really piss me off if they dont put theme and note 5/s7 touchwiz skin on this update. Wait almost a year to get only Doze feature is frustating.

Hahahah. I am from Brazil. We have the most expansive iphone ever. Do you know how much costs an 6s plus 64GB here? In US costs 849, here is $1,150 or 6 months sallary. If I would change, would be for a plus varianty because of battery. I dont mind much about full hd screens or S Pen, i could buy a s pen tablet or continue to use my note 4 as second device.

Speaking of note series, i was really disappointed with note 5. The only updgrade was ergonomics and the silver color (jesus so gorgeous!). I will think about to continue on samsung if note 6 be a game changer (battery, microsd, water proof, ergonomics). If they dont, i will stick(?) to apple.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] brada1983:
Yeah it's 1000 euros here so it's about the same. I would go for a 6s plus also because of the size 6s is too small. And because the is no SD card expansion you HAVE TO go for and at least 64gb and 128gb holy shut it costs twice the price of my laptop and 3 times the price of my windows tablet. Ha ha ha

correct me if am wrong, are the devices not all that similar, the sprint variant, isn't it exactly the same specs at the international variant, can it not be ported over? excuse my ignorance if completely miles off
[Galaxy Note 4 General] king123321:
I dont think its that different but come on...just.wait another week
[Galaxy Note 4 General] scottishdude:
yea that a can understand, was meaning that its basically the same rom with tweeks for networks + the addition of bloatware and if they want to lockdown the bootloaders etc, so basically only a matter of time,

this community is full of developers that love these sort of things, its the bread and butter things of xda
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ithehappy:
Everything is absolutely spot on with your comment and then you said something in your last line and that was it, seriously, come on. If Samsung forces to use Froyo for Note 4 from tomorrow I'll still have a Note, over some sh!te crappy garbage! Jeez!

[Galaxy Note 4 General] lordnihilusmd:
Well i am very disappointed by the Marshmallow update on the Note 4. Samsung did a great job at disabling best marshmallow features and loading the phone with bloatware and crapware. It doesn't have theme engine, the feature to use the external sd card as internal is not available, there isn't anything new except the screen-off memo and the new s-pen shortcuts.

Samsung really doesn't care about it users. Why ruin such a beautiful piece of hardware with terrible software

Samsung neglected SM-N910U variant of the note 4. This variant always receives updates last and it is still running December security patch while others are running March security patch. I wonder when it will receive marshmallow.. end of this year?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] cash2387:
Most variants haven't received any security updates since December. The Canadian version (SM-N910W8) is still sitting on 2015-11-01. We're all waiting for Samsung and our carriers to flip those OTA switches.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Tombias:
They probably don't see the need to release a security update just before the release with MM. The N910F will get MM next week but allready has the latest security update.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] @home:
Any news on the 910C getting MM
[Galaxy Note 4 General] cash2387:
Totally agree. Why push an update when the OS update is close. But the one thing that Samsung hasn't stuck to (Just like every other update thing) they haven't provided the monthly security updates. Once Stagefright was mainstream, Most OEMs said "We will push updates to keep our devices secure"....But never happened...Which isn't surprising at all.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] NamelessFragger:
Sprint N910P PC1 user here, let me give you all the rundown:

-S Pen Air command and S Note are indeed updated, as are some of the settings pages.

Too bad everything else isn't. Same camera with no camera2 API, no theme engine, obnoxiously huge 640 system DPI, same phone and contacts interfaces, same media apps, same launcher, etc. You'll still have to opt for a Note 5/6/etc. ported ROM like this one to get most of that (sans the camera).

http://xdaforums.com/note-4-sprint/development/rom-t3307211

If anything, that just smacks of laziness and planned obsolescence on Samsung's end if the XDA community can port newer TouchWiz versions back and they can't.

-SuperSU 2.68 beta works fine, thankfully. But I'll probably have to wait for custom kernels and deodexed ROMs to show up before Xposed becomes an option.

-Adoptable storage isn't officially present, as expected. I haven't tried the ADB commands to supposedly enable that yet.

-I haven't been able to test whether the fingerprint scanner API's been implemented or not. Anyone got a compatibility checker for that like the camera2 API?

-So far, it runs pretty smooth, but we all know that the real test for a TouchWiz ROM is whether it stays that way over a few months.

Man this Sammy really taking his time to release MM to Note4 fans ... even my newer Tab A is left behind what more the older Note4. Darn China phones are getting faster updates than Sammy!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Rennanv:
I think we users of note 4 around the world should make some buzz/noise and show how disappointed we are about the marshmallow update. Like, skin change and doze? Only this changes? With such a powerful device? Its obvious they are acting in bad faith in this update. Programmed obsolence?

And the skin is not completely equal to the S7/Note 5 skin. No new camera app to take advantage of the MM camera features like RAW... no theme store... no double tap to camera... no Samsung Pay. I think i won´t update my note 4 C variant because I have no reason to do so. If only change is some battery improvements and skin, I have an extra battery and the prime version on Nova Launcher(best launcher for me so far).

And it seems that is the last update and we wont get Nutella this year or next year... Hope they update note 4 to nutella and become a game changer... because this MM update is so frustrating...
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ravijani:
note 4 users wants mm like :p
[Galaxy Note 4 General] cavags5:
I agree with you.

Nova launcher is the best launcher, but i found some lags in some apps.

Takes more time to open than touchwiz.

Like the dialer messeges contacts.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] RayTrue04:
I don't know why ppl go on big rants like this when Samsung hasn't updated their UI to a newer one from their current flagship since the S2 when it got Jellybean with S3's touchwiz. When you buy a Samsung phone you should buy it knowing that the touchwiz you now have will be on that phone for its entire life. Yes you will get os update but they will remain strictly Google under the hood updates. That being said, this will be my last Galaxy as I'm tired of being devoted to a company that does not care about their user base. All they want is our money and we keep giving it to them, that's why they do not care. I'm going with the LG G5 or HTC 10 this year. Both LG and HTC update their UI's like it should be done. Samsung has become lazy because they don't care, they know people will flock to whatever new flagship they release for the new features.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] marc_ecko28:
Im using Nova (prime version)

When i bought the google version, I never notice any lag.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] RR-99:
Well it's supposed to be here in Q1 2016 so it has to be soon!

What bugs me is when I check for an update the reply is "The latest updates have already been installed". That's just not true!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Rennanv:
Lags? Really? Never experienced any lag ever on my nova launcher or apps. I turned off on developer settings the speed animation to no animation, so the UI flies like sh** on my device. The best things about nova are the gestures, god damn, I love it. And the possibility to increase the icons size and put like 5 or 6 apps in a single grid. I don´t miss touchwiz att all.

Wait, the only thing I really miss are the camera UI from the S6, but theres no one single fu**app on playstore that worth the money that is compatible with Note 4. Or I havent found it yet. So, I think I could keep my Note 4 til september 2017 and wait for note 7 or Iphone 7s.

---------- Post added at 05:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:08 PM ----------

You´re right, that´s a fact. But I´m piss off because they changed the UI in S6/Note 5 to the S7 so therefor they broke their own philosophy. If the LG G5 weren´t so ugly and my country will get a weaker processor version of it (snap 627 I think or something like) I would go for it. I have a Ipod Touch and I really do like the Apple UI, the updates are always on time... I had 4 galaxy devices and I´m tired of the same trouble over and over again. Tired of being loyal and receive only slaps in my face. I would love to have an HTC device once, but they dont sell here and I cant travel to buy one compatible with.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] RayTrue04:
Didn't know they updated the ui on the S6/Note 5. Either way, I'm done with them as I've got burned too many times for being loyal to the brand.. Imagine how I feel with this Note Edge. The Edge concept on this phone actually served a purpose and they didn't do much for it..
[Galaxy Note 4 General] galaxynote2:
Really?

Galaxy S and their variants recived Touchwiz 2.0 (S2) in Gingerbread update

Galaxy S2 and Note got S3 TW "Nature UX" since a ICS test build and then in JellyBean

Galaxy S3 and Note 2 got S4's Touchwiz with Kitkat update

Galaxy S4 and Note 3 got S5 and Note 4 UI with Lollipop update

Galaxy S6 and Note 5 got the brand new S7 UI BEFORE the S7 was released.

The GS5 and our Note 4 only adapted the stock UI to Material design but that's it. We only get new icons (which are old, because they're based on 5.1.1 Note 5 rom instead of the Marshmallow ones).

Those are enough reasons to think that Samsung should updated the UI since they did in ALL their flagships and some other mid range phones too. The 2014 line of Samsung devices were treated like sh*t.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] RayTrue04:
And that's exactly what I'm saying. I don't know what note 2 you had but mine never got an updated touchwiz ui. Neither did my S3. I haven't had a galaxy update it's touchwiz ui to a more current one since the days of the S1 and S2.. Maybe yours was special idk.. I remember wishing I would get the new touchwiz for the weather widget on my note 2 from the S4. Never happened! Custom roms don't count..
[Galaxy Note 4 General] galaxynote2:
Nope, stock roms. They've been released worldwide. All of my devices were the international ones

GT-i9200

GT-N7000

GT-i9300

GT-N7100 (not mine)

GT-i9500 and i9505 (both mine)

International Note 3 (I dont remember the model number but it was the Exynos Octa one)

SM-N910C (actual device)

SM-N920C (actual device)

All of those were international versions and all of them got updated to the lastest UI available within the 18 months of support of each device, except for the Note 4 (at least for now).
[Galaxy Note 4 General] RayTrue04:
Just watched a review for the Note 2 GT-N7100 kitkat update and I don't see a new TW nor the new weather widget that came with it. I think you're confusing stock Google OS upgrade with TW. The white icons, transparent notification and all that was part of Google changes not Samsung's TW. Only thing Samsung did was update a few apps. TW remained untouched just like on my US variant.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] cavags5:
Here is the video i made.

For all see the lags.

Touchwiz is faster.

https://youtu.be/ptx8fb8FoFk
[Galaxy Note 4 General] galaxynote2:
I've said kitkat but that was wrong, the S4 UI was ported to the Note 2 in Jelly Bean 4.2.2 and 4.3. Kitkat only introduced the white icons due to Google gidelines that every OEM needed to follow. Only Icons (and widgets, something that Samsung almost never did) remained unchanged. New lockscreen with new unlock effects and widget supports, new framework-res theme (overall UI was touched up a bit) all from the S4.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] RayTrue04:
So you went backwards in android versions and still no S4 ui on a later kitkat.. I just don't see it... The S2 actually got the S3's whole nature ui which made it identical to an S3.. Anyways let's get back on topic. Samsung needs to stop the bs!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] galaxynote2:
We don't have the same points of view so It's good to end here lol..

Either the S2, S3 S4 or whatever phone before the 2014 line recived a major upgrade in their UI (fully or not). We both agree that the Note 4 received neither of those changes... Putting the S2 as an example, it got the ICS update with the old UI and then a newer build actually changed it. We could expect that too either official or unofficial way (Custom ROMs).
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Rennanv:
I noticed the lag now. And with no contats on the app, right? This is odd. I tested the Nova Launcher and than the Touchwiz and there this lag only in the contats app. The dialer doesnt have the problem. But the lag happens on touchwiz too, so I think in MY CASE the lag happens because of the number of contats to load on my phone. But overall, I dont have lag issues with nova. Something is wrong. Could be anything. I would try the hard reset, the developer settings and than the Nova Settings about animation speed.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] aselmani:
Same here. Also the battery life started rapidly deteriorating.

So, I did a wipe-factory reset and now things are back to normal.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] cavags5:
Yes i try all of that.

I will the same video with the s6 soon but it goes to warranty.

I already did more resets that i forgot.

And with contact or not lags the same.

It lags a bit on the 3 main app but more in contacts.

Hope they will update nova launcher.

You'll be back at Samsung after you experienced the camera's and low quallity screens at other brands. I experienced it after I got a HTC after my Samsung M8800 Pixon. Samsung has the best displays and camera's. And those things also work with lollipop or kitkat. The functionallity doesn't expire. MM is overrated.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] brada1983:
Yeah I tried switching from Note 3 to LG G3, and although the Camera is awesome everything else just falls short of the Note series.

The end.

Couldn't wait to get rid of the LG to get a Note 4. And LG Poland gave MM to G3 and it's nothing special so.....

Keep holding on to Sammy you'll regret switching. And LG, HTC, Asus and so on are hard to sell. When I place my Samsung Note in an ad puf goes in 5 minutes .

[Galaxy Note 4 General] brada1983:
I got MM on G3 and it was definitely a better phone than with lollipop but it still had all of the problems from before. Cause they are hardware related. And that's the freaking heating up, touchscreen is terrible in response and that's after they changed it under warranty.

So yeah when I got back on Note. Now I can safely say that there is a huge difference.

You will get the latest touchwiz... Google it. By the way Samsung wants to keep the Note 4 alive because lot's of customers are unhappy that there is no expandable storage on the Note 5, so what they are trying to do is keep selling the rest of the Note 4 they have make it updated (so the customers don't runnaway to another brand) and sell the Note 5 as they have been doing good (But not that good). Note 6 should have expandable storage so most people like me are waiting for it. How great is this phone? Yeah i want marshmallow now but this is how things work with Samsung, there is no point complaining, you allways have to wait. Another thing there are not a lof of phones that can beat the note 4, even the s6 that is a new phone can't fight the Note 4 (not talking about benchmarks, talking about productivity, features and battery life etc...) Relax that we might get 6.0, and 6.1 and then buy the Note 6 or root and flash a custom ROM.
