[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlindDude:
Ok, where do I start?

My last phone was a Galaxy IIIs. Rooted it and installed "The Peoples Rom". Had very few problems with it and used it like that for 4+ years.

So finally I get a new phone, Note 4, Rooted it and have kept it stock. I have had so many problems with this phone. Its just HORRIBLE. I dont know if its the stock rom that sucks, or the phone. I used Apex launcher pro, maybe its that. IDK.

When I bought this note, I bought 2 others, one for my son and one for my daughter. have left them alone, no mods. They dont seem to have the problems I do either. My WiFi keeps disconnecting and reconnecting, which really pisses me off because I constantly use the phone to control my chromecast. I will be watching something, doesnt matter if its Youtube, Netflix, Videostream, whatever, when I grab my phone again to click "play next episode" or whatever reason, the wifi has disconnected and reconnected but it screws up my chromecast connection and I have to try to reconnect to it, which usually screws up the queue, or play next episode, just whatever the hell it is, I have to force close, reconnect, and go through so much BS its ridiculous. It will also just turn off by itself and I have to turn it back on, even though I have it set to NEVER turn off, sleeping or whatever.. Uhg. When it turns off, its usually in the morning when I first grab it, I notice its off, and have to toggle it on. And sometimes I notice it has turned off when I get home from running around town.

I have data turned off. I dont use cell data AT ALL, ever. I also have WiFi settings set to never sleep, choose best signal unchecked, etc.. I have 2 routers in my house, one at each end. Doesnt matter what router I am connected to or what channel, security, and so on, the phone acts the same. keeps disconnecting and immediately reconnecting. I have also set it up for Static IP, which didnt change anything either. I have it set to connect to just ONE router and have had it "forget" all others.

Yes, I searched google and have tried all of the tips that were relevant.. I even tried Tasker to see if there was some way to force WiFi to stay connected. It's NOT a matter of signal strength, I get full bars and only 1 bar missing when I am outside. So I dont think its a problem with my antanna. I dont know what to do now. Maybe try a new ROM? Throw it against the wall? Seems like my device is defective becuase the kids say they dont have any problems with the wifi, but they dont use it as much or in the means that I do. And trying to get your teenage kid to hand over their phone so you can test it for a while, is like, well you know. lol

I know this is more of a rant than anything else but if someone has any ideas please let me know.

List of what I have done so far.

Rooted the phone with N910T3UVU1DOK2 Stock Rooted Odex / DeOdex for N910T3. I chose Odex. I used the phone for several months like this.

Then I had a problem with T-Mobile blocking my phone (bought on ebay). I contacted the seller asking him WTF and they sell so many phones that he couldnt find my information so he sent me to an EMEI place that he paid for. The EMEI website says its supposed to take about 10-15 minutes. But SEVERAL hours later and 3 different stock ROM installs later, they finally got my EMEI changed. So now I am on N910T3UVUIDOG1. Then the EMEI guy rooted it with CF root or something...

Doesnt matter which of the stock roms I have used, I have the wifi problem. Like I said, I dont think its my antanna because when I am connected, I have a really good connection, well, I think its good. Its the same as I get with a cat5 cable on my pc. http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/a/2032861983

Anyway, Help me? or Flame me? lol

Have a great day people.
