Install Help

Ok.... So I flashed NoMBN.tar file, made sure I was on the BPA1 Modem and installed the ROM(5.21 download) but I am bootlooping . What I am doing wrong here? I am on DE 910V coming from 4.4.4 Definitive ROM. I normally dont have issues with these things but I must be missing something. Thank you.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Th30n1:
Guys great news i was reading on the forum for jasmine rom for our note 4 that somebody has already posted an update to the bootloader for MM. Heres a link to that hopefully now or in the feature paulpizz can get MM.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] SlothlyDX:
OK so when wiping with TWRP I used advanced wipe and check art/dalvik cache, data, cache, and system. Then you just need to flash the rom itself and maybe the latest Supersu if you want it updated. After that your good to go.

You can't keep your current kernel because it's a 6.0.1 based kernel your on now. You have to use paulpizz kernel included or another like Oscar kernel. Must be 5.1.1 based. As far as I know I use snap chat just fine. I haven't heard root breaking it. Paul has included in the op a xposed Uninstaller file you just flash to remove it.

Hope this helps.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ssb13:
I had the Snapchat problem. I read it's Xposed that causes that "Denied" message. So I took a Titanium Backup of Snapchat from another device that does not have Xposed. I saved it to Box. Then restored it on my phone from the Box source.

I really did not notice right away, but when I am using my camera it is locking up on me. I have to actually pull battery and restart phone. Does any one know of a fix for this or what may be causing it. I can usually take about 2-3 photos then it locks up? Does the small fixes that were done on the latest rom fix any of this was sure.. or I would have done that update...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ssb13:
Never had a problem like this. Are you running latest build from. 5/21? Did you dirty flash over another rom?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] jmart8684:
I'd like to try out that kernel. i think i sent a pm, but no idea if it went though
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] cyber_nicco:
Thanks!

Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pmjj:
No I have not done the 5-21-2016 update, I was wondering if I should . I was wondering if any of the minor fixes was a fix for the camera.. If or when I do the newest update I would probably do a clean install. thanks for responding.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rbarndt:
Update .....So....I am getting the dreaded Kernel is not Seandroid Enforcing and it keeps bootlooping. I am guessing it is because my DE 910V has an old bootloader from when I bought it. So is my best course of action here. Flash to stock rom image. unlock/convert the BL to DE and then flash this ROM.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PaulPizz:
The kernel is not Seandroid enforcing is normal. As for boot loop, that shouldn't happen. Are you doing a full wipe then flashing? If does take it to like 10 mins for the rom to boot... On the first boot anyway.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] datstudandre:
has anyone confirmed that taking the OTA will cause them to lose root? I'm tempted to take the plunge but I love this ROM also

I believe the Paulpizz ROM may have blocked any OTA's, however for safety sake, never OTA. You may loose root and have to start all over again.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] shadeau:
I recently bought a ZeroLemon battery (and am quite happy with it) and have the emotion kernel (thanks to [MENTION=2260077]Android.Ninja[/MENTION]). I kept a game running for a long time to see how much SoT I could get (between 8-9 hrs with this heavy game between two days) and I noticed a few problems.

1: My phone runs really hot with the game. Since I didn't check what PaulPizz's kernel was clocked at I have a feeling that this is overclocked, but can't confirm. I fixed this by using kernel adiutor to change the thermal throttle settings to a lower temperature (65 C I think). If anyone has suggestions on this I'm happy to hear them. I'll admit I still need to take the time to read through the emotion kernel thread and figure out all of the pre-configured settings.

2: My phone seems to randomly forget all Wi-Fi networks and passwords. I tried the securestorage setting in the build.prop, but it still happens on reboot and randomly throughout the day. Is there a fix for this? I'm currently having to restore my Wi-Fi backup from TiBu every couple of hours to make sure I don't use 4G data.

Thanks for the help!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Tone Capone:
I have done some searching on whether our Verizon Note 4's come with an FM chip and if we can enable them. So far all the stuff I have seen is from 2015, nothing recent.

Does anybody know about whether we have/can use the FM chip?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] shadeau:
Update: I've narrowed down the Wi-Fi problem. I thought it was occurring randomly, but it turns out that it's correlated to my Wi-Fi being turned on and off. I currently have tasker set up to turn off Wi-Fi when I leave my home and turn it back on when I get to work and vice-versa. I don't know which event triggers all saved Wi-Fi connections being forgotten, but I'm leaning towards the Wi-Fi on event since it still forgets them after a Hot-Reboot. I'll adjust my tasker settings so that Wi-Fi stays on all the time and report back.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pmjj:
No one has told me anything to help the camera issue I am having. I am going to try PaulPizz newest update on a clean install and see if that helps. I am hopping some of the minor bug fixes takes care of the issue.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Skubacb:
Verizon Note4: Hi, ROM is working great but I did not Odin BPA1_NoMbn.tar prior. I was in a sweat with boot loop I could not get out of. So I cleaned everything. Could not get to PaulPizz rom but had access for a sideload of Emotion rom. When I had access I installed PaulPizz over Emotion with TWRP.

Question is am I lacking anything important by doing it this way? So far everything is up and running fine.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PaulPizz:
You should be good to go.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Deluriane:
Love your rom! Keep up the good work!

Im also having issues with the camera . It keeps focusing when it doesnt need to
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pmjj:
As I did state, I have done the most current update from PaulPizz, I have not used the camera yet enough to see if that has helped. I can say that seemed to be the only problem I am having . Another week on the current build and I should know if it has taken care of my camera issues.. I am sorry you are having focus issues. Have you tried the current build... if you are not on it yet? Thanks again PaulPizz Love the rom... I can not wait to see what you do with marshmallow...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] shadeau:
The Samsung camera tends to do that. I had that problem on Stock when trying to take pictures. I have also tried using the camera on a stock Samsung Galaxy Alpha and the auto focus is just as finicky.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mexigga:
I had the same issue on the first release of this ROM but have not had it in the weeks I've had the update on my N4.

Although this was directed at users with a ZL battery, maybe this will help with the WiFI pw issue:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PaulPizz:
For the wifi password issue... There is a zip in the op you can flash to fix that. Make sure you clear the cache after you flash it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] shadeau:
Thanks, I do have a Zerolemon battery. As I said the post, I tried changing the build.prop file already without success.

I'll try flashing that tonight. Are there any changes other than the "ro.securestorage.support=false" line that were changed in the zip?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Android.Ninja:
[MENTION=7439032]shadeau[/MENTION],

If you all need any help, just pm me or post your issues here. Be sure to be as specific as possible so I can better assist you in solving your issues.

Flashed the zip and Wi-Fi works as it should. Was there another change I wasn't aware of? Anyway, thanks for the help!:good:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PaulPizz:
No its just a wifi password fix. It just flashes a new build.prop with the edits needed to fix the wifi issue.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AFriend26:
First off thanks so much for this method, was having problems phone becoming unstable and shutting down before I could get the second command into adb, this method smooth as can be much thanks. Okay here is my question, I got everything to work I have twrp, su, I did everything that OP wrote in directions. I just got my note 4 back last week long story but none the less it hadn't been turned on about 9 months. I am still on 5.0.1. build BOAF. I have rooted , flashed, used adb for a while I have had verizon for a long time so I have not had a lot of unlocked bootloaders so this may be a noob question but I have never posted here but read and used tutorials from here for a long time (you guys are the best). Before I flash a rom that is based off 5.1.1 do I have to upgrade to it first? I used debloater and shut off my OTA's because it was trying to update. If I do have to flash to 5..1.1 before I can flash another rom how can i do it with keeping my bootloader unlocked? thanks for any help and sorry about the long winded question. cheers.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Deluriane:
You should be on 5.1.1 before flashing this rom, it is required. There is a download file that you can use to update firmware that retains the unlocked bootloader. Check the download list of this thread file is called VRU2BPA1 NO MBN.tar.md5
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rbarndt:
Finally Got it working

Finally got 5.1.1. working. Awesome ROM... Does the the included kernel with the ROM include the "Patch to fix Screen Brightness Issue" for older dev bootloaders?...Thank you and great ROM...

No unfortunately it doesn't. Sorry

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] android-incredible:
You don't have a backup if not You will have to Odin back to stock 5.1.1 and unlock the bootloader and root...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] howellcp:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] f3bandit:
anyway to update this with the nfl, amazon, slacker, instagram, safe to remove verizon apps, yahoo weather, hancome office, and the preloadinstaller.apk?

if thats possible!?!? it states on several thread they are safe to remove.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] PaulPizz:
You can remove them. Use a system Uninstaller or tibu.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] f3bandit:
unfortunately the nfl app is a real pain to remove. everything else seams fine tho
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] android-incredible:
you can use root browser or app master...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] f3bandit:
I have tried that already...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Skubacb:
NFL and some others were easily removed with Titanium BU. I It did require a reboot to clear the icons completely.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fixmewireless:
does this ROM have French menu language pack ?

Xposed uninstaller zip file is corrupted. Is there any other way to uninstall xposed?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] android-incredible:
dirty flash paulpizz rom..if your zip is corrupted just redownload again...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Skubacb:
RE: NFL Are you using Titanium Backup to delete it. Because after the TBU deletion there is no sign of it on my Cell. Remember this is installed as a system App. Only something that can put an app into or out of the system will be able to uninstall it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] f3bandit:
I am just gonna say it's un-installed since every app i have including TB, say it's not there anymore. root app delete is the only one that states it's still there.

thx for the help tho
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Skubacb:
I got nothing. In some cases I say the best thing to do is ignore it if it does not show anywhere as running.

Good luck.

Odin flash of BPA1_NoMbn.tar failed

I have been on Definitive Rom ANJ5 4.4.4 on my DE for about a year and thought I might give 5.1.1 a try.

So I carefully did a TWRP backup and disabled all Wanam system boor menu options and downloaded N910VVRU2BPA1 5.1.1 Firmware from the OP.

The actual file downloaded was BPA1_NoMbn.tar, and I saved the md5 file.

Put the Note 4 DE into download mode, connected to a running Oden. placed the BPA1_NoMbn.tar file in the AP and hit start.

The file passed verification, and cranked along for a while, then gave a FAIL! error.

I repeated the process with the same results.

The phone will go back into download mode, but trying to do anything else (boot or recovery) results in this error screen:

Software Update failed

Your device didn't update

Successfully. Use the Verizon

Software Repair Assistant on a

Computer to repair your device and

Complete the update.

I found the Software Repair Assistant on Verizon's site, but given their instructions, it seems like the phone must be in a booted state for it to connect to the software.

I could be wrong.

If I do attempt to use Verizon's software Repair Assistant, will it do something to my DE that I don't want it to do, like lock the bootloader, or disallow reverting back to 4.4.4?

Has anyone had any experience with this, run into a similar problem flashing BPA1_NoMbn.tar or have (a hopefully better) approach to solving the problem?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hbg01610:
I could be wrong...but using the Verizon software will download the latest firmware and lock your bootloader.

I have also been able to used Odin to flashed the SM-N910V Developer Edition up to date with the retail BPA1 file found on Sammobile then used the direction above to convert it back to Developer Mode.

All together I have rooted one Developer Edition and two Retails with my guide. No problems running PaulPizz ROM

One of my Retails got corrupted permanently test rooting with other techniques. I am getting DM Verification failure with 5.1.1. and when I updated it to 6.0.1 I got a message Device does not have DRK ( Device Root Key). contact to SW PL

Please flash ENG binary then install DNK The phone stilll works and is rootable but it lags like its not partition right or something.

Next week if i have time i will try this update but this is the procedure that i will have to go throught.if not some one let me know. .
