[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caned_monkey:
Hello,

I have posted this on the cyanogenmod forum but everyone seems to be on holiday as I'm getting no replies. I'm hoping someone on here can help.

I recently had CM12.1 running on my S5 SM-G900F for about six months with no problems. I then switched over to CM13 and used that for about a month without any problems.

I decided to go back to CM12.1, I flashed the same CM12.1 Snapshot file that I had been using previously and it installed without error but when I rebooted the phone it would crash and reboot in a loop during start up. I wiped the phone and tried the install again about four or five times having the same problem until on the final attempt it managed to load the OS. Now that I have the OS running I cant connect to WIFI, the 'back' and 'recent apps' buttons on the phone don't respond (the home button does work), the camera app doesn't work (I get the error 'Can connect to Camera') and it keeps crashing and restarting on reboot. Everything else seems to work but the phone seems sluggish and there may be other errors that I haven't come across yet.

I thought that there may be a problem with the zip file I was flashing so I downloaded it again but it did the same thing. I've tried wiping and reinstalling several times but I get the exact same problems. The file I'm flashing is:

cm-12.1-20151007-SNAPSHOT-YOG4PAO333-klte.zip

If I go back to CM13 everything works fine so the problem is only with CM12.1.

I'm at a lost to explain why this keeps happening as I've had this running fine on my phone previously and wiping the phone and starting again doesn't do anything to solve the problem.

Any ideas please?

Come on people! Have a guess, I'm really stuck here!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tm60405:
I myself have not installed any custom roms on my s5 yet (bc of knox 0x0 lol) but try reverting back to the stock rom and then install cm12.1 again, maybe it could work.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caned_monkey:
Thanks, but I've tried that. Both stock rom and CM13 work without a problem. The issue only seems to be with CM12.1.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezantera:
Can you tell what bothered you to go away from cm13 back to cm 12.1?

CM13 sucks!!! snapchat and instagram keeps on crashing, now I'm using resurrection remix 5.7.3, that sucks too!!

Just in case :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] alanmv567:
Awesome so this one has the new July security patches?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Build date for this particular build is 8 Jul 2016 , so it should have all the security patches till that date. Again, this is stock, so no customized features added.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] alanmv567:
Thanks, do I install this through odin or twrp?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
You would need TWRP to flash this.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] alanmv567:
Yup you are correct it is currently doing it through TWRP appreciate the reply back and yeah I am gonna stick to stock as I just got this phone yesterday (upgrade from Note 3) and want to try it out the way it is :D
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
If you just bought this phone, you might have to first upgrade your bootloader to MM.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] alanmv567:
Oh well before I installed this rom I had let it update normally through the system update settings. It booted up perfectly this rom just to let you know :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Perfect :cool:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeeXii:
Could you do this for us on the N910T? The firmwares (kernel & platform) for both PE3 and PG2 are identical.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Not sure what you are requesting.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ffaridi1:
I tried to load this ROM , after initial boot it shows Optimizing Applications Screen , once optimizing is done it reboots and stuck on TMobile Screen forever.

My BL/BB is DOK2. Do I have to upgrade/downgrade BL/BB to some other version?

Thanks
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mdiaz33685:
DOK2 is v5.1.1 and EPE3 and EPG2 is v6.0.1 it is recommended for u to upgrade to the MM Bootloader and Modem (BaseBand)

I can confirm it works on N910T
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] c-prodigo:
is there a way to remove the yellow font at boot that says kernel warranty, like just installing stock kernel, or is that needed to keep root?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Great. I'll add this information.

As far as I know , only way to remove that notification is by installing stock recovery and stock kernel.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] alanmv567:
Yup works for me. One question, are you able to update your security policy under Settings>Security>Security Policy Updates then check for updates manually? On mine it keeps failing.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Knee Pads:
I suppose viperaudio would not work unless I have a SE permissive kernel?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
I haven't tried it, but if you need permissive kernel, this one still works with EPG2.

http://xdaforums.com/note-4-tmobile/development/kernel-beastmode-rage-freeza-t3408096
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Not sure if this is caused by knox related files, those are the only ones removed.

Can you change this line in bulid.prop , reboot and try again updating the security policy to see if this fixes the issue?

ro.config.knox=v30
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] alanmv567:
Changed it to v30 then rebooted. Tried again but it still failed :(
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Then it is something else, don't know if Samsung itself broke it :p
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] alanmv567:
Hah yeah I'm not too worried about it doesn't really affect the phone. Besides that phone runs great. :good:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mmarcz:
I installed this on my 910T, works great. I tried installing the latest beast mode kernel but it makes the phone bootloop. Until then, no viper for me.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
I'm also using the stock kernel as of now, but beast mode 56.8 worked just fine for me.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mmarcz:
Thanks, I'll give it a try.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mmarcz:
I tried the zerolemon edition of the Kernel. Phone booted up, but then it ran so slow, phone was unusable, like the CPU was throttled to 1%. I then relflashed the regular Beastmode kernel, and the phone will not boot past the t-mobile screen, so I had to battery pull and reflash the stock PE3 kernel. So that's pretty where it is at the moment. I would like to get a permissive kernel installed as I am missing Viper audio.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] 216Monster:
If the firmwares are identical, what would be the differences in using the T or the T3 roms?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] wilsonmd:
[MENTION=4342818]pvsgh[/MENTION]

I did it! from EPG2 to DOK2.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] 216Monster:
That works via Odin. I do if all the time..
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Ok, so I guess the problem is only with T3.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dlongnasty:
Could someone please tell me if I can root after taking the ota? The phone is stock. I'm confused about how to install twrp to gain root or so I can flash this file to gain. I wanna run the stock rom. I just want root to remove bloat and maybe try other roms. THanks in advance. I have found many guides but none say this is what you do for the firmware I'm on. Or at least I didn't see it if it did. Thanks again
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] KOLIOSIS:
If you want to just root what you have,you'd probably be better served looking here:

http://xdaforums.com/note-4-tmobile/general/recovery-n910t-t3-marshmallow-pe3-guide-t3406870

As for taking OTA updates,IDK if you'd have to unroot or not,it's been a while since I rooted my original Note 4 & I'm still stock/unrooted on the one I have now.

If your primary objective is de-bloating,the (nonroot) app Package Disabler Pro would probably be a better option:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ospolice.packagedisablerpremium&hl=en

Just disable the bloat,DO NOT DELETE ANYTHING.

In the event you wish to take future updates,if you have too much missing from the stock ROM,you'll likely lose the ability to update.

So,when the time comes,re-enable everything you disabled,take the update,then,set it up again.......................
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dlongnasty:
I have never rooted. I took the ota update and I just dont wanna mess anything up so I was asking where the information for someone that already took the update but is rooting for the first time would be. Sorry if I worded that wrong.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] KOLIOSIS:
Again,the thread I linked would be a better place to look.

This is not a how-to-root thread,it's a ROM thread for those who've already rooted,or,at minimum,installed TWRP.

I'm pretty sure you're OK to root,the thread I linked was last updated 7/11/16,your last update has the July security update.

The OP of that thread would likely have an answer for you to remove any doubt.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dlongnasty:
Thanks you. Only reason I asked here is no one ever answered me in that thread. I'll try again. Thanks
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] KOLIOSIS:
I'd try it myself,but,I want to keep it stock/unrooted & not trip the Knox fuse,for an easier sale (thinning out my stock of phones,getting the LG V20).
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dlongnasty:
I'll give it a shot. I have $50 in the phone so if I brick it its not a huge loss.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevearc:
hey guys. flashed this rom. having battery drain issues. im not sure whats causing it tbh. maybe its marshmallow on a hole
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dlongnasty:
Is there anyway to use Magisk in this rom? I know he has a chainfire supersu for magisk. Pretry sure I would need to remove the supersu you cooked inot the rom and install his for it to work. The new update for pokemon go blocks rooted devices. Magisk let's you toggle root. Right now I'm rooted running magisk and it's working but I really wanna use this rom. Any ideas?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
I haven't tired Magisk myself, but If you want, you should be able to remove the root from with-in the application. Give it a try and let us know the outcome.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] eksasol:
Edit: sorry, I thought I did something to the phone by flashing this but apparently not, I bought a refurb Note 4 with a wonky antenna and it would not pick up signal correctly depends on where I am.

Edit2: Looked I managed to fix it myself. Opened up the phone and found the blue antenna not connected properly.

sorry for off topic.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JohnnyAn:
Anyone try this yet? I'm thinking about trying it tonight if no one else has. It would be nice to play Pokemon again.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JohnnyAn:
Didn't actually flash this Rom, but I tried unrooting the rom I was already on, flashed magisk, phh superuser, and root toggle works perfectly. I was on AICP 6.0.1, which wasn't even a stock rom, and it worked. So, it should work fine for this rom too (although no promises in case it doesn't). I also just used safe unroot from the play store and it worked. The ads were annoying but I just uninstalled it when it was done.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] DeathEvil:
Anyone can help? I like official t-mobile rom, but I would like root, note 7 messaging, edge side bar, and theme support.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rmdeathwish:
Just wanted to ask -

Is there a way to get Stock, Non-rooted and debloated ROM?

I say non -rooted because i need to use some office mail clients (Good for enterprise) and I cant do that on a rooted ROM\

Thanks in advance
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Why not try some Ported Note 7 ROM from here:

http://xdaforums.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev

If you prefer you can hide the ROOT from certain applications using RootCloak xposed module.

If you still want to go back un-root, simply install TB and remove whatever application you don't want to debloat and then unroot using built-in option in supersu.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] KOLIOSIS:
You can use an app such as Package Disabler Pro to disable the bloat (works on non-rooted devices):

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ospolice.packagedisablerpro&hl=en

Just disable,do not delete anything,especially if you're still stock/unrooted.

Reason being,when updates from Samsung/carrier are available,all you need to do is re-enable everything,take the update,then disable the bloat again.

It's a decent alternative to rooting,well worth the price of admission.

Can someone please help. I have a Note 4 Sm-N910T3, and I'm using 6.0.1 EPG2. I am trying to root with both CF Auto root. I found the file on the CFAutoroot page for my T3 device with same baseband. But every time I erase everything, copy over the firmware, turn on USB debugging, and then Odin the CF autoroot, my phone stops at the Samsung Note 4 screen. I have tried everything, including erasing every single thing, formatting, and tried both installing SU and not installing it at the beginning. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong here. Thank you in advance.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Not sure if you still have this issue, but you can install TWRP recovery using ODIN and then flash SuperSU using TWRP or flash a custom ROM which includes the SuperSU.

any help please
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JXYR:
Can you install xposed installer ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
I don't use Snapchat, but I think it doesn't like root. So you need to use something like RootCloak(Xposed module) to hide the root from Snapchat.

Yes, it works, you can use the wanam's version from below thread, use the xposed-v86.1-sdk23-arm version.

What is your bootloader version? Try to install one of the custom kernel for MM and see if that makes any difference.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Dashaquavius:
PG2 is only for T3? Should I just stay on PE3? Does the OP warning only apply for T3 users?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
PG2 is available for both. I would strongly suggest to stay on PE3 if you haven't upgraded. And yes warning is only for T3. I have seen some posts where user mentioned that they were able to download the N910t.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] panxpany:
I got it done, it was a baseband and bootloader issue. I think the people should stress this more in the install instructions...but thanks anyway!

No cable or port I choose make Odin flash the bootloader and modem. I get a write fail every time.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Those are only for N910T3 model, not the regular N910T model. So make sure you are trying to flash the correct files.

Can I install this through Odin? I want to wipe out everything from my phone and install this fresh. Can it be done?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] MadTechnique:
Im a little confuse. This is only the rom right? So is stock kernel included when you install it or no? If no what kernel will you have? the one that was there before and can you include stock kernel download for this stock rom?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Stock kernel is already included in the ROM. You don't need to flash anything else.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] MadTechnique:
Thanks for the response. What's some tip you can give to get a clean install. I want to install this as if I bought the phone rooted but stock lol
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pvsgh:
Just flash the ROM from 1st post, that's all you need.

once rooted knox cant be used right? because i installed samsung full stock firmware and knox wasnt running but still installed, and when i downloaded tb and uninstalled it, in settings in about, knox was still there. so im wodering if by installing this rom is it the only way to be free of knox??

I understand your question,but,I don't see what your end-game result is. (Root w/o tripping KNOX? AFAIK,this iosn't possible w/this phone.)

Yes,you'll need TB or SD Maid PRO to disable/delete packages,as Package Disabler Pro does not work on rooted devices.

If you disable/uninstall the apks/packages,it's gone,AFAIK,the remaining artifacts are just cosmetic,for lack of a better word,I believe.

You best bet is to ask the OP.

Why not just flash this ROM,seems to accomplish what you're after (Knox is not on-board).
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Sherl:
How much SOT can I expect with the stock? [MENTION=3512846]KOLIOSIS[/MENTION]
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] KOLIOSIS:
I'm guessing around 3hrs SOT.

It could probably handle more on a good ROM,as the Stock Note4 stand-by/idle battery consumption is awful.

That's why I recommend Package Disabler Pro to all stock/unrooted users,to disable the Cheetah Mobile S***ware & Samsung apps you don't use/that constantly run,whether you use them or not.

I've posted what I have disabled in screenshots,you'll have to look around in my posts,or,I can re-post 'em later this evening,your choice.........................

Hey y'all - hope someone can help. I'm on stock, non-rooted, att note 5. It's been working like a charm all these months that I've had it. Except yesterday, spontaneously out of NOWHERE, the bluetooth just turned itself off. In fact, it was working just fine all day, connected to my watch, got into my car and it connected there just fine. Even had a bluetooth call on the car's speaker. Left the car, and THAT'S when it happened. The BT icon just turned off (from the notification drawer). I tap on it, and it doesn't turn on. So I go into the BT settings directly, tap on the toggle switch, I watch it turn on for a split-second, then it just shuts off.

Now, here's the weird part, when I boot into safe mode, it works JUST FINE. All that happened recently were app updates, like the android wear app, but I didn't see any settings in the update that would cause this. ANYONE HAVE ANY CLUE?!

PLEASE HELP!
