I'm thinking about going back to R2 debloated. It was the best on my phone with zero issues and much smaller at 880mbs. I'm on Final now, what are you guys on?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jcip17:
I'm on ultimate I restored my TWRP backup too many times that my theme store doesn't work anymore lol. I'm on material dark theme and content. That is a good idea to go to sdx r2 because that was around when the data fix was made for our phone so that should work the best.

I'm back on cm13 just to see what's up with my Bluetooth. Nice change though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gcounts:
This is how Bluetooth has run for me on every ROM I've used except Kyubi. Its strange, I use the same apps on cm 13 that I use on Kyubi. I can't figure it out.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jcip17:
This started happening when you were on ultimate and final? Or just final?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gcounts:
Started on ultimate, so I flashed final, and Bluetooth still drained my battery. I uninstalled a couple of apps that were mentioned in some searches, but that didn't help. So I restored my backup of cm13 upgraded to the 2-14 release, and my battery life has been amazing again, and Bluetooth is at the bottom of the battery usage list rather than the top. I might just stay here for a while. This 2-14 cm13 is really smooth and snappy at the moment....I'm liking the change ya know? Thanks for checking on me.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jcip17:
Gotcha. Yeah maybe dirty flashing is frowned upon on this ROM lol. Glad your battery life is back to normal on cm13 !

You can find it in the OP of the original Kyubi even though it is kinda hard to find the mega download link that doesn't redirect you to a different spot on the thread. I think this weekend I'm gonna clean flash SDX 2 and not mess with my phone anymore. This ROM is all I need. I hope all the versions are available for download.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
I'm on SDX 2 lightly debloated. It's doing ok except for it's locked up a few times. Which one are you going to use? Also I keep getting a message saying the original Kyubi thread has been removed. Are you able to get there?

Well if you click on the link in this OP it took me to the original thread but it does look like the download link for the most recent version is not working. :/ I sent the OP a PM to see whats going on. I also asked if there is a way to download previous versions of Kyubi. Let's wait a see.

Well it let me download by just installing the Firefox extension. I can remove that if I want to. Are yall running the BPA1 modem?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jcip17:
Nice that's good. Yeah I've been on it since it was available to us.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jcip17:
Okay so I figured out a workaround to my notification date not theming from a clean flashing. Idk why this is happening, but in the second thread of Kyubi OP there is a systemui blur files and there is also a stock one to revert back to normal. I downloaded the normal systemui, flashed it, and my date in the notification panel was themed!

UPDATE: if I switched themes it reverted back to stock date theme color. So I would need to flash systemUI file again. I don't mess around with the themes too much so as long as there is a Workaround I'm happy.

Nvmd: I forgot I tried Wanam lollipop to theme date and time in notification panel last night. It did not work. So this morning I flashed the normal systemUI then the theme from Wanam was applied. Annoying workaround but it works.

The developer of the theme I mean. These themes are meant for the note 5 so maybe paid themes go through a different process compared to free themes. But definitely check to OP because I'm sure somebody tried buying a theme before. Sorry that I can't be much help.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
I think I might know what caused it. I went into my Samsung profile and it wanted my password. Maybe it wasn't there when I bought the theme. It did take my payment though. I don't know. It was only $1.05 but that was the best theme I found. I really wanted it. But I guess I'm all set. I got a freebie that's ok.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gcounts:
Well now you have me wondering... what was this "best theme"?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
Well you know it's all just a matter of opinion. I kinda like the Blue Keypad theme. But I'm all about Black and Blue themes. I won't use anything else. I had a free one called Cyber that I was real happy with. But after setting my phone up again I can't find it. I'm using Bluestreak now but I'm not crazy about it.

I tried Kyubi - The Last. But then I tried Kyubi SDXR2 and I think I'm sticking with it. Plus I've settled on the Inverted MM Theme for now. I also installed one of [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION]'s versions of Viper4Android. I'm going to leave it like it is for a while now. It seems to be all good. Thanks [MENTION=2720837]jcip13[/MENTION]. :good:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jcip17:
Sweet I'm glad. It's jcip17 but you made jcip13 feel really good lol. I'm on the last version and I'm doing well on it. I'm a big fan of material dark theme! For some reason the playstore icon didn't theme but whatever !
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
Well I'm glad jcip13 felt good. I'm kinda wondering if I had a messed up Viper installation that was causing problems. I use it a lot. It would stop processing whenever the car dock would switch it to Bluetooth. After doing a better install it didn't do that yesterday when I was out. I did have to bump up the minimum cpu setting a notch though. Maybe that had something to do with it. I don't know but things seem good now.

Seems my theme store is broken. It was working when I flashed the ROM. This either happened when I flashed xposed, used Wanam, or flashed the stock systemUI. Can anybody confirm that their theme store is working on xposed with some mods checked off from wanam lollipop? Or when I changed my build.prop model to SM-N910V. It's probably the model name.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
My theme store was ok yesterday when I last used it and I have some Wanam mods. I was thinking about changing the model name but I never did. Maybe the store gives you a cookie or something that is now wrong. It thinks you're supposed to be a 920F.

Sent from my SM-N910V DE
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jcip17:
It was the model name. I switched it back to SM-N920C, rebooted, and the theme store works again!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
I guess that tells us to leave our model name alone, huh?

Sent from my SM-N910V DE
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jcip17:
Well not necessarily because there are apps that need our model number to let the playstore know our phone is compatible with them. Were you the one with the problem with the paid version of Anymote? So whenever we want to theme we switch it to the SM-N920C model name, then when we are happy we switch it back to SM-N910V for Note 4 app compatibility.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
Yeah that was me. I found an apk for AnyMote that's working fine. But I'll keep that in mind in case I run into anything else. Thanks for all you've done for us.

Update: Ok I just thought of something. When I installed the rom I allowed it to automatically download all my apps thinking it is an SM-N920F. If I change the model name it'll probably cause problems with app updates right?

Sent from my SM-N910V DE
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jcip17:
No problem man I am just glad we were able to push our neglected phone to its maximum potential !

I definitely thought of that too but if it does update after you change the model name in theory it should replace the app with an apk that corresponds to whatever your current model name is. If you do run into trouble and if the app is web based then a simple uninstall and reinstall should fix it. If it is an app that has data then idk lol make copies of the data folders for those apps and just replace them when you uninstall and reinstall, then reboot? Haven't had that problem yet.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
Neglected is right. I've never seen such a sad forum. The retail phone owners feel like they got screwed. I've seen it all building up to this day. I figured I'd get a Dev Ed just so I wouldn't have to wait til it got rooted. I didn't think it'd turn out like this though.

Thanks for the info. I'll change it then just deal with it. I'm sure it'll be fine. Thanks again man.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
Yeah I'm glad you did too. I used to use the Morom rom. But I guess [MENTION=1111520]balla48801[/MENTION] can't do it anymore. He said his work was becoming real demanding. It never got updated past 5.0.1. I never had the battery issues but it was still laggy. I loved the blacked out apps.

I found there's a feature of Kyubi that I REALLY LIKE A LOT. The individual permissions settings means we can have at least some control over what apps are doing in the background. Maybe some of the apps wanting to use my camera and record audio is benign but it just seems a little weird. I'll find out as I go along whether I've broken some of these apps or not but I want to find out for myself. With my phone being rooted and all the hackers out there trying to steal whatever they can I feel a little safer.

I thought this feature wasn't supposed to come before Android 6 came out. I know Jasmine didn't have it. Is this something that comes with the Note 5 or did Kyubi's developers add it?

Sent from my SM-N910V DE
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jcip17:
I believe it's something that was added. I'm pretty sure my Note 2 running Alliance ROM had that. It was called App Ops or something. I do agree that I feel safer by controlling the permissions like GPS, Record Audio, Camera, and Network, but yeah it can cause an app to not work correctly.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
Yeah it broke Textra.

Update: Ok maybe it didn't. Maybe it was when I changed the color of the icon.

Sent from my SM-N910V DE
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jcip17:
For textra I believe it needs all the permissions to work correctly. I may be wrong but try one permission at a time.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
I've disabled the camera and record audio and it's working. I was messing with changing icon colors and somehow ended up with an icon that didn't open the app. I uninstalled and replaced it and now it's fine even without those permissions.

My phone keeps flashing the time and some other info on the right side of my screen when it's off. The only times I know it's going to happen is right after the screen shuts off and again about 1 minute later. Then at seemingly random times I'll notice it.

This would be a pretty cool feature if I could like touch the screen and have it come on and stay on til I let go. But I can't control it and I can't find a setting for it. Is there a way to take control?

Update: Ok forget it. It stopped doing it and I don't know why. I restored my backup then uninstalled Display Brightness after. My guess is something I had going on before I restored but I don't know what it was.

That's the edge settings. The night clock option doesn't work since we don't have an edge screen so just turn that option off. I turned off all those options in edge settings because I didn't find them that useful.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jcip17:
So stupid snapchat does a root or xposed verification at login and I can't get in. I don't remember ever seeing this. I am thinking the way around it is to log in to snapchat before flashing xposed, then flash xposed. Idk I have to do some testing when I get out of work.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Battlehero:
Install Snapchat and log in before flashing Xposed Framework.

Then you can back-up Snapchat with data (Titanium Back-up?); this means that you can restore the app whenever you feel like it.

My phone started draining the battery too fast. Better Battery Stats said I had the Bluesleep Wakelock. I found a fix (hopefully).

1. Unpair any paired devices.

2. Disable Bluetooth.

3. In Application Manager go to Bluetooth and clear cache.

4. Go to Bluetooth Test and clear cache.

5. Restart Bluetooth and re-establish connections.

So far it's not showing that wakelock anymore with BT activated. We'll see. I'll let you know if it starts draining fast again.

What version of Kyubi are you running [MENTION=5132064]jcip17[/MENTION]?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jcip17:
I'm on the last, most recent version of original Kyubi. Weird I still haven't experienced a Bluetooth drain but I hope that is the fix. Keep us updated.

I went back to cm13 because of the Bluetooth battery killer. I'll have to try the fix and see.

Thanks for the info! How long has the fix been working for you?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] stueycaster:
I thought I'd try Kyubi the Last. I got it most of the way set up but then ran into a problem. In Poweramp /Settings /Audio /Advanced Direct Volume and BT volume are both grayed out. I can't disable them so I can use V4A.

I had a couple hours last night without the Bluesleep Wakelock reactivating. I just restored my backup so I can run it a while and I can get back to you a little later on today. I should probably run it through the car's Bluetooth for a while to see if that kicks it off again. That's my only BT device.

Last night I did something different when I disconnected from the car. I used to have the car dock app leave Bluetooth running when I shut it off but instead I had it shut off BT first. I left it on for a couple years without it having problems. I'll set it back to leaving it on and give it another try.

Sorry I can't tell you what's going on already. I still have a little research to do.

After clearing the cache in Bluetooth the Bluesleep Wakelock was down at the bottom of the list. But it still had PowerManagerService keeping the phone awake 100% of the time. With a little searching I found a suggestion to clear the cache. After doing that it's been sleeping about 75% of the time for the last hour and a half. I uninstalled an app that I was suspicious of. I'll keep an eye on this and post my findings.

I bought BetterBatteryStats about 3 years ago when I was having battery issues with my Droid Charge. To anybody who has some battery issues I'd recommend it.

If you want to change the DPI of the settings app you will need Xposed Framework.

Then you have a retail version of the Verizon Note 4. There is no permanent root method for it yet, so I'm sorry to tell you that you will not be able to flash this or any other ROM :/. The phone has been out for almost 2 years so it's not looking good for retail Verizon Note 4 users.

Hahah that could be a reason but I can't be 100% sure. I can't tell you how many times I binge flashed trying to get the T-Mobile Alliance ROM to work and my phone felt like it was going to melt. This phone is a trooper !

Am I the only one having battery issues? I uninstalled an app that I suspect was causing the wakelocks I'm having. Better Battery Stats shows these wakelocks. I'll try others if this doesn't fix it. I should probably go over to the original thread and look around huh?

I really think I should have at least 1 1/2 hours of deep sleep here. But it only shows 13 seconds.

Update: After uninstalling that app, charging the phone and rebooting my phone seems to be sleeping like it should. If anything changes I'll update this again.
