If like me you want to get rid of the myfaves icon and have the stock home icon with clock heres what i did.

Get a reg edit tool, use total commander 2.5 beta and make these changes

go to:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome

inside got CMyFaves- find value Disable Change from 0 to 1

Next:

in same place HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome

go to CHome inside is value Disable page change value from 1 to 0

Last:

in same place HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome

got CClock change value disable from 1 to 0

and value disable page from 1 to 0

soft reset and enjoy.

P.S. this may be the place that we may need to look for adding customer apps to the Neo UI.

Also in the Startup folder there should be 2 files:

Voicecmd.lnk - This is for Voice Command

SyncManager.lnk - this is for the Tmobile Address Book

you can delete both of those if you want to free up a little more memory at startup

I'm use home screen from t-mobile shadow on my tornado with WM6. But I don't know how to add anybody to Favorits in CMyFaves. I see this plugin on home screen and "ADD FAVORITS" near empty round place with unknown person but can't change or add my contacts to this plugin. Please help.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] nav1:
Are you actually running the CHome on tornado? How did you do that? By the way you can only use MyFaves if you are on T-Mobile USA network and you have MyFaves plan activated.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ND4SPD:
@Lovetz,

Same question as e-v@n, how did you get CHome to work on the Tornado?

Thanks

My friend makes new rom for Tornado based on HTC JUNO. After some tests with me and some other people he will make new thread at forum with this rom.

you mean he has htc juno rom?.. can you / your friend upload the rom. ITs a better idea to port the plugin from htc juno since its unbranded compared to shadow.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
II don't want to be an alarmist but back on 17th June 2016 I created this thread DM Verification failure , Please flash ENG binary then install DNK

At the time I wasn't sure what had caused the problem but last night with a different phone I used KingoRoot and it corrupted a second phone of mine. Now two out of three of my Verizon Note 4's have the dm-verification-failure.

The symptoms of the problem are when I am navigating some of the swipes lag. Sometimes when typing there is a lag delay before it is entered. Sometimes Wifi lags before it is turned on and the phone forgets my wifi password.

I found this thread How to solve dm-verity verification failed/need to check drk first on samsung devices but I don't have the experience to do it. Can a developer create the fix for the Verizon Note 4 , PLEASE, Thanks
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jecilop:
I am at the end of consolidating all the info I can to determine if I should get a Note 4. Root is the thing that matters to me, but I have learned that regardless of 4.4.4 or 5.1.1 you have to unlock the bootloader which is the challenge.

Just as I think I have it all together and that the methods provided (on XDA only) are the only only ones available and apparently stable, I read this.

Am I COMPLETELY MISUNDERSTANDING your post? Is your post from here http://xdaforums.com/note-4-verizon/general/stabilized-process-to-unlock-bootloader-t3375527 which I've saved as reference for rooting a device no longer accurate?

I'm overwhelmed from so much research and think I've curated the posts that matter, then I see this. Can you offer anything on this? Again, I may not be understanding. I am NOT a developer or programmer. I've rooted a few devices, but it has been a long time with the most recent not requiring the seeming complication of this one (thanks a lot, Verizon!).
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
The stabilized-process-to-unlock-bootloader I posted is still valid. I recommended using Kingroot. I found the dm-verity problem with KingORoot. We need more feedback to be sure. I never had the problem with Kingroot. I removed the link to KingORoot from my guide today.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jecilop:
Hmmm..ok..thanks for the reply.

That's interesting as I've read so many posts that say KingRoot is not the way to go but rather KingOroot is the correct on to use. Specifically, a lot of people seemed to have tried it unsuccessfully in the process.

I was also hoping to avoid KR as I've read it is a bit sketchy. I've used it twice before doing that and found a Nextbook tablet it worked great on with seemingly no apparent problems since. Another Samsung phone was rooted with it (I was actually searching for KOR, but didn't remember the name exactly and ended up with KR on a search). Unfortunately, the security pop-up keeps coming up trying to remove it. The user who didn't know what they were doing inadvertently gave it the OK to remove it, and now I haven't been able to re-root with it...arrggh..

I recently thought to install their Purify app (which they push when doing KingRoot) separately, but the permissions in the app say that you give it the ability to analyze the content on the screen in an window...I can't figure how THAT is needed to block startup programs or background one to save battery!

So, I was hoping this meant the KOR was good to go with the process after the bootloader is unlocked and stable per your post. I wonder if anyone else is running into problems. I know this is all very new still.

I don't suppose you could tell me:

1) Is permaroot available (with these new methods) only on 5.1.1 , or is it also available on 4.4.4 ? I haven't been able to decipher that.

I kind of prefer KitKat over the material design changes that are just wasting space on my screen in JellyBean. The Note 4 I got to purchased recently (unfortunately, it was a sketchy phone now being returned), had notifications on constant screen overflow because they waste SO MUCH SPACE with them and with unnecessary notifications that I cannot stop from showing (Power Saving, Wif connected, Blocking on). I know a good bit of that is Samsung, but the non-compact use of the notifications is Android ( Google's changes). It was better on my SG3 with 4.4.4 even though they still has persistent notifications.

I'm hoping to root and find a mod to stop showing those. I'm aware enough to check my connections via the settings when needed.

Thanks Again.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
I can only report my findings. We need more feedback.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] blindmanpb:
The only real negative I've noticed with KingRoot is that it's erased the serial numbers from both of the phones I've used it on. Thankfully it didn't affect the IMEI, but whenever I try to check the serial number on those two devices, it just shows a bunch of zeros. Back up your EFS partition first (if you can without being rooted, I'm not sure), or at least make a note of the serial number. You can manually edit /efs/FactoryApp/serial_no to restore your serial number as long as you know what it is. I don't believe the serial number is used for anything (except maybe warranty-related things), just annoys me that KingRoot erased it.

As far as removing KingRoot, after you unlock the bootloader you can flash a modified stock firmware file for the phone (one that has had aboot.mbn removed) and still retain an unlocked bootloader. Flashing anything with an aboot.mbn will re-lock your bootloader, so be sure you remove that from any Odin tars before flashing. I had access to the full factory firmware for the device (containing the PIT file and a couple of other partitions not found in the home firmware files hosted by sites like SamMobile) so I stripped aboot.mbn from it and flashed that to make sure I started with a clean, KingRoot free device.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
Thanks, I like the way you think.

Is there some file I can take from a good working Note 4 and repair the DM verification issue ? Do you think I could do it with efs Profestional. Just wondering.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] raduque:
I initially used KingRoot, and it failed 20 out of 20 times to root my phone. I used KingOroot on my laptop (in a VM) and it rooted my phone first try. I don't have any Wifi issues and I don't see any "DM Verity" messages anywhere on my phone.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
I think, You would only see the DM Verity" messages when you are in stock recovery. Once you log into your google account, it remembers your passwords. But on my phoneS, I still get the other lagging problems. What ROM are you on?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] pfcland:
That why I kept the original box with the serial numbers on it lpl
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] fz798:
Same here, only I used the Kingoroot APK, no issues on either the retail or DE. On JasmineROM (6.0 on the DE and 7.0 on the retail)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
The lag is most apparent on stock rom that I rooted with KingOroot apk. On CyanogenMod it is more like a hesitation. The damage is so far as I know irreversible.

The other phone that has only been rooted with KingRoot is a a factory DE it does not have the DM Verification issue and it runs as smooth as silk on every ROM I have tried. So I say the problemS came from KingOroot. But we need more data points/ feedback to be sure.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] blindmanpb:
Verizon Note 4 does not list serial number on the box, unfortunately.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] NeoandGeo:
Can you post a short video detailing the issues and is there something I can do to immediately verify if there is a dm verification problem with my device? I also used Kingoroot on my Note 4 due to KingRoot not working after several tries, but I don't notice anything out of the ordinary, just the usual ocassional lag that is on every Android device.

Only noticeable issues I've experienced have been the "Unauthorized Actions Detected" issue and Wifi passwords not saving using PaulPizz 6.0.1/OscarKernel, but that was corrected with the freezing of a couple Samsung security apps and a build.prop edit.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
I'm working this now FIx DRK/dm-verity, Factory CSC and Serial Number So far I have been able to restore my serial#. after I turned on the hidden menu.You have to be in stock recovery to see the dm-verity verification failed message. You would have to Odin back to stock to see it.

Lag is not normal unless you have a ton of apps running. ., Wifi passwords not saving is not normal not even once , I bet you got the bug.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] NeoandGeo:
Maybe, but I don't have the wifi passwords issue unless I flash OacarKernel over either Jasmine or Paulpizz, stock kernels are OK in that regard.

How bad of a lag are we talking about? Slight hesitation or full on freezes for more than a second at a time?

After a few weeks of using the device with custom ROMs, no lag spikes have been out of the ordinary for me, feels more responsive than my Note 3 and noticeably better than both the Nexus 6/Moto X I've previously used.

The only truly frustrating lag spikes I've noticed are trying to use this site without any form of adblock on Chrome. :P
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
The Best example is scrolling lagging on this site with Chrome. My phone without the issue is as smooth as silk. No hesitation. The phones with the bug maybe two swipes work then the third swipe lags then the page jumps to catch up. It is uncomfortable to use.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] NeoandGeo:
XDA forums have been fine for me in Chrome since I installed an ad blocker not too long ago. Before that I would get annoying pauses and skips, like you're talking about. Though this also happened on my Note 3/Moto X/Nexus 6 as well on this site.

Is there any way to see if any running processes have large latency spikes when these lags/pauses occur?

Also is there another kernel I can try on PP 6.0.1 ROM or a way to easily flash the stock kernel on it without restoring a backup? Seems like the minor issue with Wifi only crops up with OscarKernel.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] ryanbg:
Verizon devices do not have the typical Samsung serial number. The only serial number your device uses in the last 32 bits of your eMMC CID. The EFS serial number is supposed to be 00000000, and will not affect any functionality of your device. You had your DRK (Device Root Key) erased. It could have been from damage to the EFS partition or something else benign. You'll want to flash complete stock Odin, reboot to recovery and wipe data, and reboot. This should fix your issue, but if it doesn't, let me know and we'll cross that bridge.

In response to OscarKernel not saving WiFi passwords, it's an issue related to ROMs and not my kernel. It does not use secure_storage, so setting ro.secure_storage=false is necessary, and once done, everything will go back to normal and save fine.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
The tutorial I was following was for the SM-N910C not the SM-N910V . For that device, magix01 has a tutorial to fix DRK. I was working on the premise that if I could repair the serial number, I could then use emergency software recovery. Thanks for straightening me out about the serial number. Put that aside for now.

I did Odin N910VVRU2BPA1_N910VVZW2BPA1_N910VVRU2BPA1_HOME.tar several times downloaded directly from SamMobile and did the data wipe and rebooted every way possible I think. I still get the dm-verity failure and more importantly, It still has the lag bug. I have in my possession another SM-N910V that does not have any issues. I was wondering if I could take a file from the good phone and use it to fix the defective phone. Thanks, for your help, I am ready to cross that bridge.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
I just thought of another symptom, When I do a Factory data reset from within Setting the phone shuts down normally but then it blinks the green android guy then goes into stock recovery without automatically doing the Factory data reset
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] blindmanpb:
Verizon devices DO have a Samsung serial number, it's just not listed on the box or underneath the battery. Some devices have it listed in Settings > About device > Status (Note 5 is the first VZW device I've owned that I remember seeing the serial number in settings). You can always use an app like Phone Info to find it. But if you've used KingRoot, it gets set to all 0s, so unless you made a point of writing it down beforehand, it's lost forever.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] GoatHole:
I also have lag problems but only on one of my n4s. I unlocked them the same way with kingoroot. One is good. One is laggy. On the laggy one I even reflashed stock bpa tar and re-unlocked it. Tried Paulpizz rom and jasmine.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] NeoandGeo:
Decided to try out the Unofficial CM13 build to be able to test out all of the seemingly big 3 for this device and I am still not seeing any lag issues that would cause alarm, so I am pretty sure I haven't been affected. Jasmine and PaulPizz ROM's do exhibit a bit of the usual Android lag you would expect from the bloated UI and too many running services of stock style ROM's, but CM13 is much smoother, with noticeable lag only when trying to open/close a number of apps over and over and stopping and starting services.

Sucks for anyone to be affected by a constant lag that is currently unfixable, Hopefully the KingoRoot dev can help get to the bottom of it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
1. su

2. cd /efs

3. tar czf efsbackup.tgz *

4. mv efsbackup.tgz /data/media/0/

Testing........I was able to make a backup of efsbackup.tgz on the phone without any dm-verity damage. So the command works.

But on the phone that needs efs repair, when I run the command tar czf efsbackup.tgz * with Terminal Emulator

I get the error message tar: efsbackup.tgz: file is the archive; skipping

I wanted to make a backup before I formatted efs. I was told here, that radio would regenerate some of the files needed.

Any thoughts anyone?

EDIT: magix01 answered that I needed to install busybox . Got that part done
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] GoatHole:
I think you have a better handle on this than I do but if it's just the efs partition that is the problem can't you backup and restore that in twrp?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] NeoandGeo:
This is what I get running the commands, looks like I'm OK?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] ryanbg:
You can try coping /efs/prov_data/ from the good device to the bad device. Otherwise you'll need to either send the device to Samsung or there's several online services that will repair DRK.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
Out of the three phones I rooted, the serial number survived in only one. I found it in Hidden menus *#06# This make me think we can restore the serial number in rooted phones. Could you help a brother out and hook me up with that special modified stock firmware containing the PIT file and a couple of other partitions not found in the home firmware files.

My wifi not saving and some other problems went away after I did a RNT reset . I found the RNT reset within the App "Phone Info Samsung" under Secret Codes, I read that the RNT reset clears more personal information than a normal Factory Reset. I did it without a sim card inserted. It did not fix the lag issue.

I believe I tried that, I also tried renaming prov_data to prov_data1 and when I rebooted it regenerated a new prov_data folder. I want to try formatting esf from within TWRP Terminal but I want to be sure I have the files and the process ready to restore the special needed data like restoreing the imed ect... What do need to have ready before formatting the efs partition? Anyone know?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] NeoandGeo:
OscarKernel was causing my Wifi issue with not saving passwords, this was remedied by editing the build.prop. Using any ROM with the stock kernel provided gave no issues.
