Can anyone change their voicemail provider? If I try to change it, it's greyed out. I'd like to set it to Google Voice but nothing seems to work. It's already set to go there, but it'd be nice to see my voicemail in the dialer as well as in Hangouts.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RacerX10:
For some reason, my Tilt with Kaiser ROM is VERY slow to sync compared to my old trusty PPC 6600.

I also don't have a "backup/restore" option in activesync anymore.

Any ideas ?

Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Ren13B:
Microsoft removed the backup/restore for Mobile 6.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] lrossouw:
I've found that If I sync the storage card directly via card reader with Windows Media player it is 10x faster.

But activesync still slow on outlook ...
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ehmedhemidli:
Hello guys. İ want to buy note 4.

Whixh edition do you suggest?

Sdragon or exynos?

And can you tell me pros and cons for phone? İ read reviews buy i want real users feedback.

Do you suggest it for today? 2016 april.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
Yes, I completely suggest it for today, in this time, especially the price is pretty cheap now.

Pros for me:

- Great camera in daylight, above average in low light

- Incredible display

- Superb call quality

- Very good built, though the metal edges will scratch in no time, but that's metal for you

- TouchWiz is okay-ish. Not bad, but not that good either, but with MM released things will get better I am sure

- Excellent battery backup, with MM

Cons:

- Samsung's shoddy update policy for different variants

- Camera in low light, can't compete in that level with nowadays phones like S7, Note 5 etc., but its still close

- Rear mounting speaker!

- Screen to body ratio

- Meh Fingerprint scanner

PS: You can go for either model, Exy or SD, both have very good support from XDA. I heard that Exynos is better for gaming, while SD is better for overall optimisation and battery life, can't be sure about that myself as I only have one variant, SD.

İ didnt understand update part. What about front camera?

İ am using nexus 5 , is it worth upgrade? And how much it cost now?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
I don't use Front cam at all mate, so can't comment. Nexus 5? That's one of the hardware nightmarish phone I have ever owned, I can't even put both the phones in same sentence, no offence.

Note 4 32 gigs cost around 32-33k INR here, but very often it sells around 30k or something.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ehmedhemidli:
Then i will go for note 4. And there is on more same price phone galaxy s6. İ dont know s6 is good too or not. İ hrard battery life is bad on s6
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sontran_vietnam:
Both snap and exynos are powerfull. But in fact, through a lot of benchmark, exynos is better than snap, but just alittle bit. I'm also use the exynos version too. If you want to play game, should buy snap version. And if u want something for work, exynos is great.

P/s: one more thing u should no, exynos version is cooler than snap, snap is too hot after using for a while, and the battery of exynos version also better than snap version. Hope that you buy the phone suit for u.

Nexus 5? That's one of the hardware nightmarish phone I have ever owned

What do you mean exactly?? because im a happy owner of a nexus 5 for 2plus years now and i can tell you for sure that i wont replace this crude diamond not even for a future s15 edge or anything.

Now for our friend's question. as u can see i allready own a nexus 5 like you, and i bought a N910c (thats the exynos) about 2 months ago. I DIDNT got this as a replacement for nexus,as the matter of fact i use it without sim. anyway my previous samsung device was back in 2012 with the NOTE 10.1 wifi... well after this i swore to myself that i wont buy a samsung again. But here i am after 4 years breaking that promise with spending 400euros to a piece of.......... imnot going to analyse this, do a better research to have lower chances to regret a purchase.(not like me)

My personal advice is to do your self a favor and

dont buy

this device or perhaps any mobile device from that company. -not for the hardware but for the software.-

and for your info nexus 5 runs way smoother than the exynos. maybe the snapdragon would be a better choice if u insist buying the note
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
Shouldn't bother replying to a person who would prefer a decade old phone over a newer one, but still replying just so someone "new" and "uninformed" can actually see what Nexus 5 really is.

By nightmarish hardware I meant:

- It is one of the most awfully built device out there. Kudos LG.

- The call quality of the phone is awful, as well as the reception. I have never had a phone with as terrible reception as that, and please don't even bother wasting your time by saying I live in an industrial area or something where reception is poor, rather its very opposite.

- The display. No comments.

- The camera. No comments.

- The external speakerphone. No comments.

Shall I go on?

Nexus is Nexus because of its SOFTWARE ONLY, period, and no exception is Nexus 5.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ehmedhemidli:
My nexus 5 is in very nad condition (glass broken, frame got big cracks, back cover damaged) battery life is 1.2-2 hours of on screen. Camera is very bad. İ cant take proper pictures.

And yes İt is smoother :D
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ehmedhemidli:
İ use phone taking photos, heavy use of messenger and facebook, whatsapp, chrome. Sometimes gaming.

Actually my nexus 5 will stay . i wont sell it.

İ will buy new note 4 exynos or whatever for daily use. Nexus 5 will be always like testing roms improving developing skills :D
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sontran_vietnam:
Note 4 Exynos will be the best choice you can have, it's better than Snap one. ^^
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h8Aramex:
I would say you should wait until the Note 6 or 7. Or whatever comes next.

This one is still very expensive, and will not get any support whatsoever from now on.

It's a good device, NOW, but it costs so much you could just buy a Nexus 6P for example.

Or a Z5, M10, whatever. You get the point.

BUT, if you are some fanboy, here goes nothing...

Sdragon:

+ Faster 3D performance, better for gaming basically.

+ More roms/kernels. (though none of them will be as complete as stock)

Exynos:

+ Better battery life

+ Faster 2D performance

+ Faster performance (single, multi core)

- Games have crap framerates, see below.

I picked Exynos because I rarely play games.

If you check comparisons on Youtube, it beats Snapdragon by miles in any task, except 3D.

Framerate: Like Asphalt got... 20 or something it's real console like (eww). Modern Combat is also around 25 or so.

Too bad games on Android cannot scale down to 1080p or 720p, there is absolutely no point in having such a huge resolution for a game.

Other points - affects all Note 4:

Screen protectors are hard to find, you have to buy these "full display protectors", because of the curved glass. Just buy it on eBay and you are good.

Do NOT spend too much on cases. I bought Spigen, I bought all kinds of fancy cases. And guess what? The cheapest eBay case is the best. Not even kidding.

Metal cases, even if ONLY the frame is metal/aluminium, WILL BLOCK GPS signal. Not kidding.

When buying a case, make sure it protects the camera bulge.

Cases should have a WIDE left hole on bottom, because the microphone there can be on two positions. Mine is on the right. (SM-N910C)

No updates. MM is the last, we all know that. Even MM will take months to arrive to people.

There is no Theme Store or any new features that came with S6 and so on.

Battery life is not the best, it's around 1 days.

Bonus, you can use extended batteries. But then you lose the thinness of the device, which helps a lot when you carry it around. I have a ZL 10k mAh pack with the belt clip, it's a hassle to use.

Rooting is out of question if you want warranty. And all my Samsung Galaxy/Note devices had issues within the two first years, so I suggest you don't do it. Or get some nice insurance on your device, that might cover you. Or just save up some money, lol.

The list: S3 LTE, Note 2, S4, S4 Mini, Note 2014 10.1, Note 4.

One more thing. You may be able to buy the Snapdragon variant much cheaper. It's around 470$ here, but it's from the "gray market". It's boxed, new, but they only offer repairs by themselves, like you don't send it back to Samsung, but to the shop you bought it from.

Compared to this, the Exynos is 700$ or so. But this one comes with 2 years of original Samsung warranty.

Again, it's not the best solution, but there is a good chance you will not need a warranty repair.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ehmedhemidli:
Whoa thanks for information. Look note 4 exynos is 430 dollar for us i think. İ cant wait for note 6 7 because they will be more expensive. And there is one more option to buy galaxy s6 (same price) . i hate sony devices same for htc.

My love is for nexus and samsung. 6p is expensive too.

Right now i got this choices(i am limited on money) (i will buy phone in july)

Xiaomi redmi note 3 pro 3gb

Galaxy Note 4 exynos

Galaxy s6

İ need battery peeformance , camera, multitasking . i dont care about games anyway (i got nexus 5 i can play games on them)

İ dont care about roms too.

Ao which choice should i take?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h8Aramex:
Well, update wise, anything is better than Samsung. (Just check Sammobile's comment section.)

Uhm... I would not buy a Xiaomi because of the bloated interface. That's the problem I have with Lenovo and other Chinese/cheap eastern devices. Like Lenovo put 4gb of ram into their device, made it very affordable, and killed it with a megabighuge UI. I don't know why.

What about the LG G4? (G5 is way too expensive.)

Flagships there receive updates for quite some time, and it's got a removable battery.

Just asking. Don't know about the SD808 performance.

By the way Sony used SD801 Pro in their Z3 series and that thing flies. It feels faster than my Exynos Note 4.

Again if you don't mind the no updates, you might be fine with the Note 4.

Remember years are A LOT of time in the smartphone world, especially if it's not a Nexus that gets updates, can be rooted, can be modded tons of ways.

There are a few roms for Exynos as well if you check the forum - mostly backported Note 5 ones, but I can't remember when was the time I ever used a stable rom. Maybe CM9 with the stable release - was kinda stable. But that's it. To me, it's a big letdown.

Like I am on the street, I have to make an emergency call, and I can't make calls.

I am on the road, need to make a quick map check, but can't because there is no GPS atm.

Want to browse some website real quick, it would be real important, can't because the mobile data is down currently.

And these happened at the most inconvenient times.

Ps.: If you are not real tech savvy, like my father, he is fine on KK. There is a newer update for his device, but on LL the call recorder crashed sometimes, phone lagged, etc. But he does not care, you know, he is totally fine with KK.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IDDQD87:
Please let me know if this is posted in the wrong place, and I'll happily move it.

I've been an android user for a bunch of years now, A Nokia N900 with Maemo was my last non-android smartphone. But in that time, I haven't done much to keep up with the custom ROM side of things. I've rooted my phones once or twice, and my device is currently not rooted.

Recently, I've become frustrated enough with my Note 4 that I want to learn more about the custom ROMs. But I don't even know where to begin. All the posts about the ROMs uses words that I'm not familiar with, but I'm sure mean a lot to someone who knows. Words like TWRP, nandroid, and gapps. I also find that I'm not sure if they will work on my phone, or brick it. I don't see where it says "will work on Sprint Note 4 SM-N910P". I'm also not sure how to go about comparing features of the different ROMs.

**Basically, what I'm looking for is a guide to get me started on this. Some introduction so that I dive deeper into it. And also some recommendations on what are good ROMs to use.** Links would be greatly appreciated.

What I want out of a ROM is:

Basic functinality (calls, 4g, texts, etc.)

Good battery life

Better performance (less hangs, snappier in the menus)

Compatibility with the play store & apps

The basic pen functionality would be nice (for Evernote)

No or minimal loss in the camera quality

Thank you in advance.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
Ask this question in Sprint section, this is for International Note 3s.

Read this, https://www.maketecheasier.com/android-root-custom-recovery-and-roms/

Custom recovery is something from which you flash kernels, ROMs and other mods which come as a zip package, also you can take a full system backup from there, which is known as Nandroid backup etc., you access it by pressing Vol Up and power button at a time, when the device is OFF.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] urbanmec:
I will give you quick recap , maybe I miss some stuff , but I will try to give you the basic stuff.

First of all, you should know that messing with your phone's rom is dangerous if you dont know what you're doing , and may void the warranty of your device , also most Rom developpers make it very clear that they are not responsable for any bricked devices.

Now , to the stuff you are asking about , first some basic definitions :

There are several ways to flash Roms to your phone , yours being samsung , 4 ways , Booloader Mode , via recovery, via Kodi , Via adb.

A recovery is like a BIOS for a PC (just a comaprison), it lets you install and flash stuff on your phone. (your phone already has one, accessible generally on samsung devices by booting your device by maintaining Home + Volume up + power Button together and waiting for a few secs)

TWRP is a custom Recovery that replaces the original one on your phone. (look for guidelines for your own device on how to flash a custom recovery)

Bootloader mode (or downloading mode accessible by booting your device holding Home+Volume Down+Power together for few seconds until the samsung logo appears) is another way to flash roms to your phone , using ODIN(a software used to flash roms , look it up )

well lets leave adb for now.

GAPPs , well those are google apps package (playstore ,google services framework, ....etc) , because unlike commercial roms from major brands some roms come without them them, so you will have to manually flash'em over the rom

Nandroid , well , Its been a while since I didnt hear that word since my N900 and N950 , but My guess it stands for Android for Nokia devices (not sure though)

Now the important stuff , be carefull when looking for your device's Roms, make sure its compatible with it , and that its for daily use (you will brick you device otherwise). find the forum for your own device if it exists here on xda, and make sure to read what the developers suggest and say and follow the steps to the letter.

if you feel your device is taking a long time booting , be patient before starting to panic, sometimes phones take a long time on first boots. but if errors happen during the flashing procedure, its not the end of world too, you might find some ways to revive your device (I am saying this because once you start flashing roms , you are already accepting the fact that you might en up with a bricked device). samsung devices generally have a lot of support so the risk is low if you are careful.

And yeah , my personnal exeperience with samsung devices , one you get used to the tools etc... pay attention to the region of your device , especially when you have to flash modem or radio (some roms require that if not all), you may end up with a device with no service (so first backup your imei and stuff) its a bit hard to do but you must do it , back them up because you never know , accidents happen.

Hope this helps a bit.

Cheers.
