This is something I want to know too. I think its the cm one pal. If your on the rom, go to snapchat and check if exposure is working. If not then its caf, if it is then cm
[ONE General] alvin612:
Now I've been wondering about this for a while! Can't really do scientific comparison on my end, but since now Darkobas uses ColorOS blob, I'm def gonna try it out.

Either way, I wouldn't hope CM develops our camera further...and so far, best over-all camera experience is with Sultan's.
[ONE General] Haiqal Johari:
Jumped from Sultan's CM13 rom to CM13 Nightly because of battery issues on Sultan's. All I can say right now picture quality from stock CM13 nightly is decent enough when you turned off Zero Shutter Lag.
[ONE General] nuno-:
I don't share your oppinion, I think that CM13 picture quality is really bad compared to what we had with KitKat.
[ONE General] Haiqal Johari:
Yes. I agree with you. Missed the old kitkat days.. Better battery life and camera. Now, I'm on Darkobas that has ColorOS camera hal. The front camera is grainy on Snapchat.. I try to live with that for now. Overall camera quality is decent.. Way better than CM13 camera hal. But still, Sultan's camera hal is the best for our device! I flashed Darkobas because of battery life issues that I faced on Sultan's rom.. If not, Sultan CM13 is the best :)
[ONE General] anbinhv:
Try CandySix anf INT3NESE's Darkobas. AOSP based with great battery life and Sultal's camera.
[ONE General] Haiqal Johari:
Thank you for your recommendation. I have tried CandySix but I still facing battery issues and INT3NESE's Darkobas is too laggy for me :p I'm on H2OS now.

Inpic i7 update

UPDATE

A well presented device.

With the few extra bits supplied to make up lack of USB ports

A flashy looking programmable remote that has a few already preprogrammed features

Select Vod button up comes You tube, Select TV and Kodi runs

TV-SYS brings up HDMI resolution settings and Setup straight to lollipop settings.

Red Standby and Blue power on LED on the front, and remote works as you would hope to control Media Player.

All can be easily altered to suit your individual needs

4 to 5 meters line of site seems achievable.

The Inphic Spot i7 does have root.

Being a 1/8 gb units can struggle a little when pushed

Running a few bench mark test it was noticed.

This is Inphics first release of Lollipop 5.1 so a few quirks yet to be sorted.

First turn and setup Google and update no problems,

Found Twitter, Skye, Facebook, Currents not big space takers removed.

Plex, Netflix, Hulu, Chrome, Mxplayer and few other Google apps

My unit can run HOT seen the temp get over 100c with certain benchmark test.

Vellemo and Antutu you could see it trying and struggled just a little.

Kodi struggled a little showing 2 CPU one at 100% then the some Skipping noted.

Wifi speed is OK compared to others I use with the same setup/location

Updating apps/downloading from Google over wifi speed was good.

As this is the first of the Lollipop from Inphic there will be a few things to sort out.

The Guys at inphic appear to be having a go with products so we can hope for some good support.

I was hopping for a new Rom or update by now but with Holidays in China just finished can take a bit to get back into action

too much party time...

Overall a pretty good Unit a few updates needed and should be a handy streaming device for your collection

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] anhquangnguyen:
I used my note 5 Verizon for AT&T service. When some people call me, I can't call back. It always dial 011 before the area code. Like if you call me from 1800xxxxxxx and when I call back it will be 011-1800xxxxxxxx. Any idea to remove. I already turn off assisted dial on the phone

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrhoop:
Tried to update the Kindle 7" Tate to MM tonight.

Flashed the ROM no problem but when it came to GAPPs philz recovery was blocking it for some reason.

No problem i thought i'll downgrade the ROM and use flashify to flash the TWRP bootloader.

Now i'm stuck on Fastboot splash screen whenever i turn on, tried the quick pull reboot but because i've messed the bootloader that was pretty unhopeful.

Worse problem is that i cant seem to find my fastboot cable.

Ive reinstalled minimal adb and fastboot and ive got the boot img ready to flash but i cant seem to get the device to be recognised with fastboot -i9 0x1949 getvar

Wish i'd just left the stupid device on lollipop now.

Any advice would be gratefully recieved.

p.s. As i hunt for my fastboot cable - am i looking for a cable with a micro usb or mini usb connector on? If im looking at the ports - which connector does it go in? Its soooo long since I first did the kindle.

:crying:
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrhoop:
Glad to report that my kindle 7" lives on.

Ordered a new fastboot cable, needed the google usb drivers installed and then simply ADB flashed TWRP recovery.

Now rocking CM13!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
I've been chatting with Samsung Support through Twitter about Kies not taking my serial # for my Note 4. They asked for my serial # and my imei #, so I gave it to them and they asked what version i was on and told them BOK3, they wrote back saying there is a newer version, so I asked which one is it. So here is a screenshot.

Update: if your battery takes a dump with the OTA, it is recommend that you do a repair via the Verizon assistant or via Kies. But if you are on a safe upgrade version then this will take you out of safe upgrade and keep you on BOG5 incremented bootloader.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] RedsonRising:
Maybe a new Samsung version, but maybe not a Verizon version?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
Here are the screenshots.

They responded back that it is 5.1.1 with security patches
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] RedsonRising:
So Samsung says there is another version they have out. But has Verizon released it yet? The manufacturer releases versions to the carriers who then release it to the phone owners after they do their "branding". Case in point, Samsung released 6.0.1 for the Note 4, but we don't have it yet. So
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] droidx2.3.3:
I just got this update. Here it is.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] droidx2.3.3:
It's up and running now. The wifi notification is gone which is great.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] bbeelzebub:
Got it here as well. Glad the wifi notification is gone.... now to see if it still references AT&T in the Wifi Settings. LOL
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] RedsonRising:
My bad, I got it too.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] thegipper:
Hopefully it fixes my battery life problem, after the 5.1.1 update my battery life is TERRIBLE. It is the worse it has ever been and that's with trying to different factory OEM batteries.......The Note 4 really was a disappointment for a phone with such awesome hardware...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
If anybody able to pull OTA and link it, I would put in the OP, I have it downloaded, but not installed. If anybody can guide me to pull it, I would appreciate it
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] kerfex:
Interesting

My Battery life got better after the first 5.1.1 update. Weird.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] TomTcom:
Yes, so glad the wifi notification is gone!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] EdrickMG:
Please if someone could capture... it will be awesome, sammobile still not post 5.1.1, so it would be almost a year until they put BPA1 available, the only way i installed 5.1.1 was from a zip file someone upload it
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] EdrickMG:
I don't remember I belive it's called 5.1.1 something forum, I have a retail, and you are right I enter to the normal recovery stock... And flash it with no troubles
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] EdrickMG:
Its quite simple indeed just download the zip file from the forum 5.1.1 then save it in ur sd card, press up volume, power and home button at the same time to access stock recovery, navigate to option where is says update from a file, there you go it will update to 5.1.1, batter been slightly different (not a big improvement) im indeed a very very heavy user.... i received emails all day from my job, need to check whatsapp several times, there is some annoyances however... like wifi notification that is connected never go away... the wireless and fast charging notification remain in 5.0.1 now in 5.1.1 just says it once time and disappear, album cover full screen its completly gone.... performance in task screen and some apps display faster and also navigate throught touchwiz its a little bit better... not a BIG BIG difference... they put connect to at&t network (even thou its verizon), everything its fixed in BPA1 update so if you want to give a shot go ahead... i mean its not a big big diference but if you are bored of being in 4.4.4 or 5.0.1 go ahead! good luck
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
This may need to go devs but notice every time you boot into recovery on this update it says "installing update". Not sure exactly what that means cause I am no dev but it seems like the the recovery is more locked down on this update.

I also did factory reset after update. So not sure why it would do that every time booting into recovery.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] RElveston:
for last week battery been dropping fairly quickly to about 40%, then stopping abruptly. Got the update last night. After almost 12 hours on battery, it is still at 88%.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
My battery wasn't doing very well until I disabled fast charging and charged regularly. But have always noticed that even on kitkat
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Siylar:
please someone who can upload the zip file to update manually by recovery, like as in the previous topic :rolleyes:

Battery update. Seems to be be getting hot and draining fast and all I am doing is surfing the web, twitter and Instagram. I have yet to drain all the way down yet and am on day 2.

This update will not let me add fonts after doing a factory reset. Can only choose from the 5 Samsung default fonts only. When I download new fonts I get the warning that they are not supported.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
I have a feeling that the hearing of the phone might be the auto brightness. But will continue to test.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] hkklife:
I got the update early this morning. I must admit, everything seems worse in comparison to OG5 other than the small annoyances are resolved. I have rebooted several times and gone into recovery to wipe cache 3x and I am still exeriencing random lag, rapid battery drain and pretty hot temps. Just like 5.0.1 and definitely worse than the previous 5.1.1 release! Time for a hard reset, I suppose.

Just like Samsung & VZW to finally get us 5.1.1 (twice!) and they still cannot get us a build that runs properly AND is devoid of bugs!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
I experienced the same thing but what I did was flash BOG5 official firmware then applied update.zip rather then the Verizon OTA. Does that make sense?

Far as the heating goes do you have fast charge enabled and auto brightness? I have a feeling Auto Brightness is the reason phone is heating up.

Yes you can flash BOG5 official firmware, not safe upgade from BPA1.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] usmaak:
My phone is on ANK5 right now, so really old software. I briefly updated to 5.01, and then went right back to KK because 5.01 was garbage on my phone. I was going to wait until the released a safe upgrade, but I now wonder if that's going to happen. Today I decided to just go ahead and update. I only have another 8 months on this phone, so if it goes wrong, I don't have to be with it that long. I have no complaints about KK, except for extreme lag having to do with taking pictures and the gallery, and attaching pictures to text messages. The lag there is absolutely ridiculous.

From the posts that have followed the BPA1 update, it seems like I should once again hold off. KK is really old, but I get great battery life out of it. Too bad there's not a safe upgrade path, though I understand the reasons why.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] hkklife:
Yes, that makes perfect sense. I have had fast charging on but I haven't been connecting it to a QC 2.0 charger since I got the OTA. I never use automatic brightness. It is very snappy when navigating around the phone but I get massive 5.0.1-style lag when web browsing (especially Chrome) and when typing. It doesn't matter if I'm typing a text, a word document, a URL, or an email. There is still massive lag when typing more than 10 or 12 characters at a time. Having haptic feedback on makes it a little worse.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] pacet911:
Can anybody get and post the update.zip to go from BOK3 to the newest? The posted one only works from BOG5, fails upon verification if you had installed BOK3, the previous 5.1.1 update.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
You can flash official BOG5 firmware from BOK3 then apply the BPA1 update.zip
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
Not sure if battery is reading correctly on BPA1. It says been on battery for about 6+ hours but technically been on for just about 10 hours. Been unplugged since 7:30am and now 5:30pm.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] pacet911:
Can you point me to the update.zip for BOG5? I apologize in advance, I'm trying to update a backup phone that cannot do ota's right now. Don't want to mess with ODIN and risk losing the current setup.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
I have link in OP to another thread to get it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] pacet911:
Ok, let me ask it more clearly, which one of the BOG5 files can I rename update.zip to install via recovery?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
Go to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2942937

Look for the firmware for BOG5 and follow the instructions.

You will also find the BPA1 update.zip in the exact thread.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] nh97103:
It might be screwy if you just updated.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] pacet911:
The instructions are all using ODIN. Can I do that without wiping any of the data on the phone? I do not see a file under BOG5 that can be installed via recovery unless I am missing something.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
Yes using Odin will wipe your phone internal memory, but not sdcard.

I recommend using Kies or Smart Switch by Samsung to back your phone so you can restore apps, music, etc when you restore official BOG5 firmware NOT safe upgrade.

The BPA1 OTA update.zip is at the top of the thread.

Steps to do...

1. Put BPA1 update.zip on sdcard

2. Flash BOG5 firmware in Odin(follow instructions from the thread)

3. Boot into recovery and Factory Reset.

4. After Reset Install update.zip from external storage.

That's it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
anybody with their phones overheating, do you have an old sdcard in your phone?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] mexigga:
Alright... 5.1.1 once again....I'm going from BOK3 to BPA1...

I'll follow up with my pros, cons, etc...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] pyzik200:
Same here. My wife and I both have been having terrible battery issues. Purchased new batteries, has not helped.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] mexigga:
Wow! I've not had any serious battery issues, regardless of update/version.

So far (see image)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
I am not having great battery life either and am on BPA1 update.

Things i have done...

1. flashed BOG5 official firmware

2. Factory Reset before reboot

3. Installed BPA1 OTA via update.zip

4. Factory Reset again

5. Updated all apps

6. Disabled bloatware

7. Took out sdcard( don't think it was the issue)

8. Disabled fast charging & auto brightness

And still have issues with battery.

The standby time is amazing though, when I start to browse chrome or even twitter I can just start to see my battery go down.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
Looking at my battery info doesn't show any signs of major issues. But it starts to get warm and battery drains.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] mising:
Mine is in the process of updating now, but previously I was getting pretty crappy battery life on the first 5.1.1 update also until I disabled the Facebook app and started using the web version. I am back to excellent battery life again. The Facebook app is a huge battery hog even though it does not show up in the battery stats for some reason. Before disabling it, I would be down to 80% battery in just a couple of hours, now at the end of an 8 hour work day, I am at around 80-90% still.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] usmaak:
Whenever I use it and then exit it, it stays in memory, working away. I have to go in and kill it when I'm done with it. Someone should come up with a facebook killer widget. When I had rooted phones, I'd greenify it. Can't do that now.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] pyzik200:
I've tried all the same steps on my phone except disabling fast charge. That may be what's causing the batteries to have a shorter overall life span but not draining on a day to day basis.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
I just took out the sdcard this morning, so we'll see how that helps.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] usmaak:
I think that I'm going to be on 4.4.4 until I move on to my next phone, in October.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
I don't blame you and that is a bad thing far as Samsung is concerned.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] mexigga:
Now I have to eat my words...never had battery issues until now. I was at 52% then phone died...what the @$*!!!#&#, $
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
Ouch not good at all. I am still testing out my phone. I have been at work most of the day so haven't been on it. I still have sdcard out and auto brightness turned off. But we'll see. But I had a chance to go back to kitkat, I would, but I am stuck on lollipop side.

Right now it 78% but we'll see how far it jumps now that I am testing it out now.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
So yea. Everything I have tried is not working to help battery. So if you are on kitkat, stay there.

For those that have been on 5.0.1 has your battery been OK? Since I am no on lollipop side, 5.0.1 is the only place I can go back down to.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
I've lost 20% battery just surfing the web and a couple of YouTube videos in an hour.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] usmaak:
Here I stay. I will put up with kitkat's sluggishness with the camera and gallery. The main reason I wanted lollipop so bad was so I could use my gear 2 to keep the phone unlocked. That and to smooth out the performance. I just don't want those things at the expense of battery life.

I think that I am done with Samsung in October. It is sad that I am on the same firmware that came with the phone when I got it. This phone had a lot of potential, but over the last 15 month, I have grown to pretty much hate it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
Can anybody else confirm that auto brightness isn't working? For me it just stays bright. Doesn't not dim a darker room. It will get brighter in direct light. It stays that same brightness when pulling it way.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Hobox10:
Yep, I was about to post that it gets brighter and not darker before I even read your comment.

Man, sure gotta love Verizon's "rigorous quality assurance testing" that delays our updates for so many months. Really shows how much that pays off! :eek: :eek: :eek:

Even worse are the people on Verizon forums that defend them doing this stuff.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] axeldiks1:
My battery life is horrible even after factory reset . I got 2 hours on screen time yesterday which is pretty bad. Also phone gets hot sometimes and sluggish , what a disappointment. No more Samsung for me for sure .
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
I have installed an app called Lux Lite to see if it helps with Auto Brightness. Here is the play store link

I can actually see the auto brightness changing correctly with this app. But i shouldn't have to have another app for this to work properly.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] usmaak:
I really hope that the next Nexus offerings are worthwhile. I'm not sure what Verizon updates are like on phones by other companies, but I'm definitely not impressed with Verizon's Note 4 mess. My last phone before this was a rooted Galaxy S3. Even though it's smaller and less powerful, I'm sometimes tempted to just go back to it. It still gets a lot of developer love and it really was a great phone. I just don't know if I can handle the smaller screen size after having the N4 for more than a year.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] anrichardson:
although the app worked better what stock should have been doing, I am downgrading back to 5.0.1. Samsung sure knows how to screw updates up.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] mexigga:
I'd like to also downgrade...might be stuck now, right?
