[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] styles420:
Based on this and other reports I've seen, my guess is that the camera is downloading the N5 version of the optional components - whether they're 64 bit or just camera hardware-specific, they're not compatible with the N4 hardware in some way.

If the N5 camera will work with the N4 modules, then it should be a relatively easy fix. If it can be made to identify itself as N4, then it should be able to download the correct modules automatically - otherwise, we might need to manually side load camera modules. But I don't know whether the camera uses build.prop for device identification is a hard-coded value in the camera apk itself...
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lcovel:
Thanks, I went with APM+.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] anees02:
So until we find a fix for stock camera issues...is it any recommendations for an alternative camera app work well with note 4.

I tried to install Google camera but it is not compatible with note 4.

Whenever i open it doesn't work.

Now i am looking for another app.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] cbrox:
Has any one experienced time travel back into the past with the recovery? When i flash it in recovery it knocks my recovery clock back to December 4th 2013. The rom boots and loads fine, and since i have it set to network auto time set, it sets the software to the correct current time. But each time i reboot to recovery recovery sets the time back to December 4th, 2013. I've re-downloaded and re-flashed the recovery with Oden and flashed it with a zip file and still get the same results. I can re-flash a different rom and the clock in recovery is correct, as soon as i flash UN5H the clock in recovery sets back to 2013...cbrox
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] schlepprock:
I was taking some pictures earlier today and they seem fine. What problem are we having with the camera??
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] igasagu:
I'm having the same issues with the camera. I can't use all of the extra modes from the note4 because the galaxy app store is only showing me the note5 ones, and some of them are not compatible: namely the gif and beauty face ones simply will not load at all.

The other camera problem that I'm having is that the outlines of the picture icon in the lower left side is smaller than the picture itself, so it looks odd. The mode selection has the same issue: the blue selection icon is not lined up properly with the icons.

I've attached images to better illustrate the issue. At the end of the day it's a minor cosmetic issue and isn't that big of a deal, but if there's a fix that would be nice.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ianmb:
To create a gif file simply go to gallery, choose an Album, when the pictures open choose More at top right. Select Create AGif. Then choose which pictures you want to add to gif, press done. Gif will load pics and from there you have options for speed, reverse, quality.

[MENTION=1503720]tx_dbs_tx[/MENTION] thank you I've been drooling for this for a while now. Downloading now but its 5am and i still havent slept, so ill have to wait to be amazed. Will probably dream about note 5 awesomness.

I sent ya a few messages i would love to be a tester for anything you do.

Thanks again.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Hec1N1:
Great work Tx. Dling now.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] qubanaso:
Had to get on this Motha and drop some thank you [MENTION=1503720]tx_dbs_tx[/MENTION] couldn't have been done with out your dedication bud, as always hell of a rom and keep it up :)
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] LMMT:
I step away for a few seconds, and miss all this greatness. Thanks [MENTION=1503720]tx_dbs_tx[/MENTION] for your hard work, and all you do for the N4 community. This is a game changer.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] radjay:
Been following this rom development and marvel at the dedication and work performed by @ tbs dbs tx and his team. Thank you so much for this rom and allowing me glimpses of it's birth!
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DowntownRDB:
Great Port!

[MENTION=1503720]tx_dbs_tx[/MENTION], the time, effort and dedication that you have put into this port is readily recognized and greatly appreciated. Donation definitely forthcoming. Your port is buttery smooth, fast and easy on the battery (thus far). Congratulations on a fantastic job. As previously said: you are Da Man! :good::good::good: Now I have 2 great phones again. A Note 4.99 and the Nexus 6P. LOL
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ipodhacked86:
The note 4's rebirth [MENTION=1503720]tx_dbs_tx[/MENTION] you beasted this one my man was a pleasure to test this rom & be part of a incredible testing and troubleshooting team this is sheer perfection
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] unxguyjr:
Did not see mention of it in OP...does this have Hotspot Mod?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] qubanaso:
No mod needed hotspot is good to go on initial boot ;)
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] qubanaso:
Here u go
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kenjesse:
[MENTION=1503720]tx_dbs_tx[/MENTION] damn but this rom looks so much better in the light of day, glad to see it in the wild at last.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
Thanks for asking about hotspot. I forgot to put that in the OP. It's been added. Hotspot is u locked by default. It's hard coded so you can dor your prl and profile updates without losing hotspot mod.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Drayspencer:
[MENTION=1503720]tx_dbs_tx[/MENTION] ....Your brain does work like that...constantly. I told you years ago on the the Note 2 that you would be a great DEV one day. I know you have spent a ton of your time on this and we all thank you for the love. And you will be recognized soon.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] samatagana:
First, and most importantly, I want to give a heartfelt thank you to TX and all of you good people who helped along the way creating this masterpiece. Secondly, TX I responded to your PM, I know that you are very busy with this new release, so please take all of the time you need to respond. Thirdly... Holy multitasking! No worries, I'm just downloading all of my apps, playing Kritika and Paradise Bay, responding to a text and making a Google Voice call from Hangouts with absolutely no lag (I had to take a screenshot for proof!) On an unrelated note, MW Commander works with no problems lol
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] samatagana:
Oh, quick question, what adblocker are you high speed folks using these days? I've used Adaway and recently tried MOAB but it blocks some sites I have to use to correctly load the certificates from my DoD ID Card to use my phone for work...
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] thearch1tect:
Thank you [MENTION=1503720]tx_dbs_tx[/MENTION] and all the testers for the hard work and endless hours that went into this ROM!! Looking forward to flashing it today!
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Invisibility:
Awesome work dude, you're revolutionizing our Note 4. ❤
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kenjesse:
[MENTION=1503720]tx_dbs_tx[/MENTION] did not think this ROM could look any better but damn if it doesn't look magnificent in the light of day out here in the wild.

Thanks so much for letting me help with getting it here. It is truly a pleasure watching you work your magic.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] luckyscrn:
Thank you for the share! Your work is very much appreciated!
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
Thanks man. This was my plan from the beginning. I just hit a roadblock along the way and had to put it on hold. Then OI6 and OK3 released so i thought I would start over from scratch. I was determined to find a better way to get the N5 software ported. I never give up on anything. Sometimes that's good and sometimes it's not.

Soon I will rebase my Hybrid X rom with this rom . I'm not finished yet folks! This party has only just begun!

Enjoy the rom!

All rom respectable chef's and dev's who would like to build a rom using my work will need to pm me well in advance. Once I get MY N5 roms finished and uploaded I will then consider giving exclusives to a few people who I trust will do right by me and follow my lead in being a respectful developer. Someone who will not post a rom and go run and hide with little to no support. More on this later. So dont anybody go jumping the gun! I will be watching.

Im out of Thanks for the day guys. Sorry!
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kenjesse:
Noticed that during testing but never brought it up as about half of the custom roms I've used have the same issue in TWRP. I remember when i used Phil's on my SG3 and had this issue there was a "time damen" setting that would normally fix it. BTW I'm only going back to Jan of 2014.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kngdmond:
Just a heads up for those who either forgot or don't know. I ran into the "can't write to the SD card" so this is the fix. I don't take credit at all...just posting here so people don't have to hunt it down.

Edit the system/etc/platform.xml and add the line below as shown in the image, then reboot.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] quasidodo:
I also had this problem, and did the same, now works fine
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Drayspencer:
[MENTION=1503720]tx_dbs_tx[/MENTION]....Everything is running smoothly for me on this beautiful piece of work. Now to flash it on my other N4. Xposed and all modules are running well and the ROM's speed is great. Gonna test the Chromecast features in a bit. Thanks and keep up the good work!

For those that have the Zerolemon for the N4, I flashed [Kernel] BeastMode 1.8B (ZL Fix) Stock Optimized, by [MENTION=309990]freeza[/MENTION] and am very satisfied with the results below. For some strange reason when the phones screen is off and is idle the battery seems to increase in available juice especially when I don't plug in the charger overnight. Check out the usage since flashing this Kernel.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
I did tweak cpu power at idle. rom needs to sleep like a baby and it does.

Edit: I don't know much about the camera issues since i don't use it much. But yes the N4 camera will not run the N5 specific modules downloaded from Galaxy Apps store. The way to do this would be to flash back to stock OK1 rom and download the N4 specific camera add-ons and then copy your data/app folder to you internal or external storage then you will have those apk's for whenever u need them. Flash back to this rom them add them to data app, set permissions then reboot and u should be in business. you gotta think outside the box with the port stuff. it's a different animal and requires a few tricks here and there. It 's the price we pay for running software from a different piece of hardware. we are lucky we have the rom we have now. I don't take these reports as be unappreciative or complaining i'm just pointing out the facts of the situation behind some of these idssues which again are very minor compared to previous N5 port attempts. I'm perfectly happy with my current setup.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] obxnorth12:
I am thankful that you answered my question. I too, am on OBAR v1 with TX's special COG5 Firmware/BOB7 Bootloader. I have been waiting for another rom to flash for quite some time. I briefly wanted to flash OBAR v3 because Saintz93 makes a great daily driver. When I heard about TX porting the Note 5 ROM over to our Note 4's, I decided to wait.

I am currently transferring the Stock OK1 TAR, TWRP Recovery TAR, and Ultimate N5 Port Rom to my phone. I plan to follow TX's instructions to a T and will report back if I have any issues.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TheUnsub:
I did this a while ago and have the apk's of the camera modes that I need........but I'm in the same boat as you.......because I NEVER use'em! The only thing I use my camera for is to take pictures and video......that's pretty much it! I forgot about that other garbage! Lol!

---------- Post added at 01:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:41 AM ----------

If anyone plans on uninstalling anything via a root uninstaller or any program of that nature.....don't mess with "Google App" because from what I've found it will break your "Task" button......the button opposite of the "Back".......you know......the one rectangle with the other rectangle behind it!

Also......I can't seem to find the Task Manager app.......the one where you can close all apps or see what's eating at your battery and whatnot! ?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tx_dbs_tx:
I updated the OP's flashing instructions to include backing up then wiping the internal storgage to help eliminate issues caused from left over data on internal storage. hopefully people in the future will do this first and not have the same problems others had.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gimmezell:
I finally was successful with installing the ROM.

I'm having an issue where I cannot wake up the phone by either pressing the home button and or the power button. Sometimes a random reboot will happen too.

I can't remember how many flashes via Odin I've done. I've always wiped everything except my external sd card.... Any logs I can pull or other tips to try to narrow down the issue?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fredgar75:
Sounds like you may have a bad download. You are the first to have this issue, that has posted anyway. I would re-download and check md5. Then do a full wipe of everything. Even remove your memory card and be sure to fully wipe internal memory. Just back everything up on your pc. Don't use titanium to restore apps. Instead do a fresh download from the market. It's a pain I know but it could be giving you issues due to the port of an n5 rom. Also don't install exposed or any other such things until you get the issue sorted out.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Wr3ckd90:
Sorry if this has already been asked or if im the only person experiancing this issue.... so first off have to say im loving the rom but i started to poke around the build.prop and i seen u added some instruction on how to change some setting so i change my ro.product.name=hltespr to ro.product.name=nobleltespr and it changes the status bar over to the note5 style status bar but after making the changes i will loss the ability to hear sounds when calling and no one can hear me but if works fine on hltespr and trltespr
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] masterpero:
Love the room, coming from sacs glad to see better batter life from a note4/5 hybrid, but issue i had with sacs rom was phone shutting off when it get down to 20% but it ****s down faster on this rom, i was at 30 some percent then a little hey use it shut down real fast, is that a known issue with note 5 type roms or is it something maybe with my phone, any feedback would be appreciated thanks
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Wr3ckd90:
I'm going to guess your device because I'm sitting at 4% life left on the rom right now and without it shutting off
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] masterpero:
Oh ok well im going to have to research it to see what could be the cause on my phone, but appreciate the response
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] schlepprock:
My daughters phone was doing that. New battery cured it.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] reeno:
Ya my phone was shutting off at 40% and a new battery fixed it also.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] igasagu:
Had the same problem with my stock Note 4. There's an issue with the OEM batteries or so I'm led to believe. Purchasing a new one fixes the problem. I got the Anker from Amazon and it's been great so far, no more shutoffs at 20%.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] samep:
My original battery does that on occasion; not always. The replacement battery hasn't yet. The last time that happened with original battery, I rebooted with 30% and it rebooted with 2% and a critical battery warning. I'm done with it; it cannot be relied upon for making critical modifications without error.

I suspect the battery. That's the beauty of user replaceable battery option. Shame on you Samsung for removing that option in recent design. But hoping to at least see strides in heat dissipation or piping to protect these internals and display!

I think the heat cycles eventually kill the battery. Gotta keep phone display, CPU and battery cool in these extended restarts after custom ROM flash or dalvik rebuild after wipe or unofficial Xposed install. The batteries get hot enough when charged; should also consider forced air ventilation when fast charging.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] obxnorth12:
Just wanted to post an Update....

I was on OBAR v1 with COG5 Baseband and BOB7 Bootloader before I started this process this evening.

Yes, you can skip directly to ODIN'ing Stock OK1... if BOB7 is your bootloader before you start this process.

So the steps look like this,once again:

1.) BACKUP EVERYTHING on your phone to your SD Card and possibly your PC (I use SMS Backup and Restore for calls/texts and Titanium Backup for data from apps only. ALWAYS Download Apps Fresh from the Play Store unless you like asking for problems)

2.) Download Stock Non-Rooted OK1 TAR, and TWRP 2.8.7.0 TAR to your desktop, and Ultimate Note 5 Hybrid Rom from OP to your SD Card.

3.) WIPE EVERYTHING in recovery multiple times. Over and over again. Wipe everything EXCEPT MicroSD Card 10 times. That's what I did.

4.) Put Phone in Download Mode (Hold Power, Home key, Vol Down until screen comes on.. then release) and ODIN OK1 TAR.

5.) Let Phone Boot and ensure your mobile data is working. Make a call, send an SMS and MMS Text.... do a speed test if you have unlimited data. See if you can get to Google on your browser. If yes, proceed to next step.

6.) ODIN TWRP Recovery

7.) Reboot into Recovery, wipe everything again 10 times. All boxes should be checked EXCEPT MicroSD Card.

8.) Flash Ultimate Note 5 Hybrid Rom and follow OP to the letter, step by step.

9.) Netflix, Hulu, and SD Card Fixes are located in this thread. If its important to you for all of this to work, download Rom Toolbox Lite from Playstore and make the edits listed to fix (then reboot your phone) until TX gets around to fixing it himself.

Once again, HUGE props to TX_DBS_TX for all of his hard work on this ROM. Its freaking amazing.

My Note 4 feels like a brand new phone.... its snappier and less laggy than ever before...and this is only the slightly modified Stock version!

If you are on any other ROM, you need to put this on your phone. Its sooo good. If you have read all 40 pages of this thread so far and are on the fence.... what are you waiting for - The Note 6? JUST DO IT!!!!! You'll be glad you did. :)

EDIT: Only Bug I have found so far other than the obvious ones mentioned is that the Microsoft Office Products Included with this ROM are incompatible to be used with our Note 4's, per the Play Store. Clicking the .apk to open Excel, Word, etc does nothing.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kngdmond:
Almost fully setup. This rom + Xposed is smooth!! Last thing to add is Viper. Never ran a ROM this good.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kenjesse:
The info you are referring to was and is there for mostly testing purposes. I'd suggest staying away from making changes to build prop if you're not sure what the changes will do. But then again ya gotta learn somehow. Remember this is a port from a different device and in order to get things working it needs to think it's that other device at times. And lastly many of the entries in build prop work in combination and must be changed in combination and failing to do so can lead to an unstable device.

Bottom line your "issue" really isn't an issue as your making the changes that cause the issues, such as they are. Don't mean any of the above in a harsh way and encourage everyone to responsibly experiment and learn and remember to backup, backup and then backup again just in case it goes sideways on ya. Good luck.

---------- Post added at 11:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:30 PM ----------

Those folks reporting the issue of battery giving out at 20, 30 percent or the like. We found during testing that removing the battery after flashing before booting and draining any redisual power very often prevented that issue which is why it is part of the install per the OP. A bad battery can also cause the issue as well.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TheQuicken:
Good luck. I am very happy with my results and believe it or not, I ran OBAR v3 for a while, but it wasn't as reliable as V1 so I went back
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] phonetec:
Any update on the Moar rom?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] cd7:
Just chiming in... My Microsoft Office works fine...
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kngdmond:
I was curious about all the office apps. They all free? Never used tbem before. They all asked to sign in so I just closed them.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jc.m:
Those Microsoft office apps ask you to sign in because they synchronize with One Drive so you can save your documents that you created, you can sign up to create an account and have access to your documents pretty much anywhere in the world from any computer or smart phone.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] anees02:
I really enjoying this rom.

Write on pdf doesn't work if the pdf is located in external SD Card, you have to move the pdf to internal storage to make this feature work.

I think this because this app is optimized for note 5 which hasn't external storage.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kenjesse:
Not trying to dump on MS Office use it on every PC I own, on my phone I prefer WPS, free in the play store supports all Office formats.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] cd7:
Yes it's free to use on Android....

Does anyone else's home screen widgets keep disappearing and reappearing like its being redrawn when jumping to and from the home screen? Like the weather clock and the S-Planner calendar widget?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ipodhacked86:
Ive noticed that only happens when you have the splanner widget

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] BigMosley:
It happens with the stock 5x1 weather widget also.

Go to the playstore and download - 3minit rebooter.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lcovel:
I have the same problem, I thought it might be kernel related because I had had the same problem with a diff ROM in the past. I am currently running AEL kernel and hadnt tried to do a backup before I changed it.

The work around I use right now is to use TWRP manager to do my recoveries, that way they at least have the correct date and time in the file name even tho the time stamp is still incorrect.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dyandell:
Not only do my Office Apps work on my phone, when I signed into Onedrive I received some extra storage space, I think for using a "Note 5".

I have been using this ROM for 4 or 5 days and it is amazing. The only issue I noticed was I started getting some lag yesterday while at a basketball game in the middle of nowhere. The phone was roaming during the few minutes I had any signal so I assume it was using most of its resources looking for a signal. As soon as I made it back to a half way civilized area it worked great again. Not a problem, just letting you guys know.
