I have been running the latest version of the kernel over the weekend. I noticed right away that the battery drained very quick. I checked Kernel Auditor and found that core 1 & 2 stayed online and running at a high frequency. Changing the governor didn't help.

Under CPU Hotplug, I turned off MPDecision and turned on MSM Hotplug and it resolved the issue. When idle, Core 1 drops as low as 300 and the other cores go offline.

Also, here is a copy of the Normal N7 camera. The one posted earlier in the thread caused the camera to crash. This one can be installed in TWRP and works fine with the Gallery. Hope it helps.

Well, as luck would have it, I got the CQF2 rom done a couple days ago but then saw on reddit that the new update was being pushed out through OTA so I didn't release anything. The CQI2 firmware was posted this morning on Updato so I got that downloading now and will try to get everything done tonight or tomorrow.

For anyone that's curious, it looks this update has the Aug security patch and not the Sept one that is supposed to patch the BluBorne vulnerability, but I'm going to send a request for the newest kernel sources. So maybe they will have it patched on the kernel side.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JOSHSKORN:
Honestly, I'm not interested in updating UNTIL BlueBourne is patched. Thank you so much for your efforts.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
It looks like the bluborne vulnerability is fixed in the new firmware. So far I tested it with just the stock rom and the flashpoint kernel. Hopefully, it wont give me any issues when I start modifying the framework. I dont think it will but this is the most changes I've seen in the framework since I've been doing this rom.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] teegale:
Recently updated to the new kernel but I liked the one that came with this ROM better. It says no mirrors found for v8_kernel.zip can we get a reupload?

EDIT: Nevermind. Android file host is just ****ting the bed.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] GRock84:
Excellent rom, man! I am a huge fan of stable stock roms. I think I am one of the few that actually like T-Wiz and use the S-Pen :D But anyways, I was wondering if there was any way you could reimplement some of the KitKat Power Saving features. Specifically, the ability to use grayscale in "regular" Power Saving mode without having to enter Ultra Power Saving mode. If it is not too much work that is as I imagine I am again one of the few who used the feature. I wouldn't expect you to put in an immense amount of time and effort for one nit-picky person.

Again, great rom! I'm looking forward to the next update!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JOSHSKORN:
[MENTION=5285430]kevintm78[/MENTION] I don't know if you remember, but at some point in time, I believe that I mentioned the 5.1.1 Note5 port by Kyubi. Basically, I miss one feature from this ROM that I hadn't seen anywhere else, and that's the way it handles getting into dual-screens. I'm not even sure if the author still does ROMs for the Note4, probably not but due to security, I could no longer use that ROM, as I had to upgrade to MM like everyone else, I think because of the StageFright Exploit. If you haven't already, and if you could, can you take a look at that ROM when you have time, please? Thanks. I believe if you long-pressed either the home button or one of the other buttons, the current app would go to one side of the screen and then you have the ability to find another app on the bottom of the screen, then change the orientation as well.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] zdanman:
Followed all instructions

[EDIT]

Make sure you do NOT have an SD CARD during install and you MUST HAVE the LATEST version of TWRP (3.0.2)

Someone needs to add this to the description....

currently booting I will update post if necessary...

[EDIT]

Finally loaded after 12 minutes of staring at "SAMSUNG" looks good ... and rooted too! the Hidden Menus still dont work however *#2663# etc...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tattmann:
Many hidden menu codes won't work with a Verizon phone. There are some available on the phone info app you can download. I myself was pretty disappointed in the lack of hidden menu codes for Verizon phones.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] zdanman:
i got them codes to work eventually you have to use the PHONE INFO APP * samsung * ..... see my other posts
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tattmann:
Hey all, I have a bit of a problem on my sons note 4 I hope you can help with. His screen is getting very hot. My note 4 is fine. I read on this site about turning on the vdd restriction in kernel auditor to help lower the temps. I have done that and only that, yet it is still getting quite hot. in phone info app, it says the cpu temp at idle is running between 52 to 67 celsius. mine sitting next to it is running 46c. in fact his just spiked up to 80c. Can someone give me an idea where to start checking and how to? To confirm, his phone and mine are matched sets. Same fw, same kernel (zl kernel) and same modem etc.

A second question about your flashpoint kernel, is that magisk and zerolemon or large battery compatible?

updated info,

I dont know if this means anything, but under phone info app, monitor tab, mine shows memory usage of 11% but my sons with the overheating problem is showing -5%? Negative? anything shown there is negative while my phone shows normal. Why would it be showing negative? it sounds to me like a ram issue? his memory usage has since come up to the normal positive range.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] teksavy:
I wanted to circle back on this to let people know what the problem(s) were for me causing the battery usage and reboot problem in case they were having similar issues.

It was two issues unrelated to each other.

First problem was that I was using Textra SMS (Pro version). For some reason, that application would reboot my phone randomly after about 24 hours. Removing it made my reboot problem go away. Time to find a replacement. The stock Messages app is way too slow and limited. What SMS/MMS app do people like around here? I really like the instant respond feature of Textra.

Second problem was Nova Launcher. It would sometimes peg the CPU for no reason. I removed the app and started configuration from scratch instead of importing a previous config as suggested by the developer after I sent them an email. Super quick response! That solved the problem.

I have been running problem free for over 2 weeks now. Yay! Hope this helps others.

-Ed
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tattmann:
for message app, I use gosms. It has a lot of visual customization, and I really have had no problems. My wife in her note 8 uses stock samsung messenger as does my son on his note 4 modestrom.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
Yeah, I feel the same way. I had started on a port awhile back and an aosp rom but it's hard to stay motivated and commited to something that I'll probably never use. Even the best of those kind of roms are kind of buggy. Plus, I'm like you, I actually like the stock TW look and feel. I would like to do more ui mods but once I started getting into the kernel side of things I really been kind of all in on that. One day I would really love to do something like Nameless Rom. In my opinion that's as close to a perfect rom as I've ever used. I love the way that it's put together and all the nuance to it. Every part of that rom has been modified in some way to make it more efficient but fighting with data fixes just got to me and really had a negative effect overall.

I've been digging through some code trying to find where the grayscale is implimented but so far I've not had a lot of luck. I'm not really the best at figuring out smali codes (another great thing about kernels, no f'ing smalis lol) but I'll keep looking. If you find another rom that has it let me know and I'll see if I can get some help on it.

Ok, I understand now what your saying. I misunderstood the first time you brought it up. I like that feature too and it may not be too hard to get that working (I think). Right now I'm having a little bit of an issue with all these framework changes but I'll definitely reach out when I get the other stuff working and see if I can get that going too. I think the kyubi dev doesn't speak english (maybe) but the echoe rom hybrid had it if I'm not mistaken and maybe they can help me.

Yeah the flashpoint zip file contains magisk v14 and there's a version for the ZL\extended battery.

You may want to check and make sure his phone is not running the mpdecision hotplug. Sometimes KA will break mpdecision and not allow your cpu cores to turn off and on. Use the MSM hotplug and hopefully that will help with his heat situation.

Awesome! Thanks for the heads up!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rfc360:
Hi @kevintm78, I want to first say thanks for making this ROM. I had no issues installing this ROM and the magisk root. It is working smoothly on my N910V and with my work and bank apps. I have also given a thumbs up as well. So, thank you. I have a question regarding changing the background of some things like phone, and system settings ui. Is there a guide that you may be aware of that I may be able to check out to change the background from white to dark or even transparent? I am not interesting in having the theme store, but was interested having some of my UIs being dark or transparent. The youtube app that you suggested was a great example. It is also easy on the battery and the eyes for that matter. Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
Hey! It's always nice to see a new name.

[MENTION=4486077]supergrobi94[/MENTION] has a great thread found here and has tons of different theming options. If you scroll down to the "credits" section in the thread there are links to the "how to". He also has his own guide here that will get you started in the right direction.

If you want to check out some other theming threads you can take a look at these:

Definitive apk and theming thread

SystemUI in depth theming

How to theme lolipop and marshmellow roms

How to theme TW SystemUI

This guide has a lot of everything in it. Almost any mod that you'll find in other roms are found in there.

Most of the guides have to be altered a little because the code doesn't quite match up. So there will be some trial and error involved, but I can try to help you out if you get stuck on something.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rfc360:
Thanks. I am definitely new to this rooting game :cowboy:, but I'm very impress with the work here. Your rom is very smooth. Much better than the stock version indeed. I'll definitely check those links out. I'm hoping that the changes doesn't mess up the magisk root hiding capabilities with my work/bank apps. I'll try some out and see what happens. My goal is to change from white background to either black/dark or transparent background. Thanks again.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
You should be ok with passing safetynet. There is a chance that you'll break the locksceeen. Modifying the secsettings app is a little tricky when putting it back together but if you're just changes stuff in the res folder it should be ok.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bagery77:
Was there ever any progress in getting Smart Switch working?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
It seems to be working with the new rom (not yet posted). I sent a couple videos and songs wirelessly from one phone to another. Everything seems to be OK with it. It'll be uploaded later today sometime after I flash it a couple times to make sure it's ok.

I'm trying a different approach to debloating on this one to make sure nothing gets left out. Pretty much everything is going to be included and I'm just going to rework the debloat script to try and make it more user friendly.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bagery77:
Wonderful news, thank-you!

Fingerprints

Hi brother, I want to tell you that I love this rom, it moves very well, something I would like to comment on if it is possible, it is the part of being able to use the fingerprint in PayPal since in the previous roms it does not work in this app, thanks in advance.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] cleopete:
Outgoing calls take 20 to 30 seconds to engage, and battery life is not great. I don't think either have anything to do with the ROM, they didn't pop up until after I'd been using the last version for at least a few weeks. Wifi drops frequently too. I tried updating the modem a few days ago, but it doesn't seem to have made a difference.

I'm thinking I may have picked up some malware but thought I'd check if anyone else had run into this before I reinstall? It's always a last resort because I use GApps a lot at work, and I have to ask my boss to authorize the device every time I install a ROM (not that I've used anything but MODest since v. 2). With the new ROM just around the corner, this may be an academic concern I suppose.

Thanks for posting those theming links Kevin. I didn't know it was even possible to change the settings ui. Can't wait to check those out!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Chris68400:
I can't speak to the Wifi issues, but I have had difficulty with making calls occasionally. Decent cell signal (-95 dBm). Might take 2-3 attempts. If I reboot (and even keep the phone in the same place) calls connect fine. Updated to the current modem as well without any change. Had an issue once where calls would continually drop, and as a hail Mary I wiped dalvik/cache and things were fine for weeks. I think it could be an app too, but the intermittent nature of the problem makes it a bear to isolate. It's funny, I can live with a call issue since I primarily use the phone for everything else. But you are in a different spot if that's your work phone. All that being said, the awesomeness of this ROM (thank you very much Kevin!!) keeps me from wanting to chance to anything else.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
Update Posted

Op is updated with the new version. I left more of the bloatware in this time and will be posting some debloat scripts very soon. Currently, I don't have phone service with my note 4 so I'm not able to test any of the service related features. Please let me know if there are issues of any kind on that front. I'm also going to try and get some requests going on this soon, but wanted to get the unaltered version up for those who want that.

ModestRom X-- Download

CQI2 Modem-- Download

Oh, and I'm adding a link to YouTube download app in the 3rd post and probably some other handy apps I've been trying out.

I'm still getting an error trying to link PayPal with the fingerprint login. It could be the permissive kernel. I'll try a few more possibilities and see if we can get that worked out.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JOSHSKORN:
Couple of things:

Is BlueBourne patched in this release?

Just a suggestion, but maybe putting information on one of your 3 posts on how to install and preserve your apps without having to re-install everything. You'd suggested a method once and it worked, I forgot what it was, though but it's somewhere in this thread. I'm currently charging my phone and will actually completely wipe my phone and start over for this new version because my phone has gotten very slow.

Regarding post #3: How do I install those apps, do I flash in TWRP? Like for instance, the YouTube app, Adaway, etc.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] weaverinva:
Kernel

I assume the 'better' kernel that I am interested is the 9/15/2017 Flashpoint.v1 and that it works with MoDestv10, correct?

Thank you!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
Yeah blubourne is patched.

View attachment 4288648

As far as keeping your data, I really don't recommend doing that. You can opt out of wiping data to keep your apps but it's sort of a crap shoot as to whether or not you have conflicts.

The apps listed in the 3rd post are just links to the apps themselves since the majority of them are ones that are still receiving updates, but the grace apps are flashable. I guess there's not one answer to that question. Lol. If it's in a zip file you can flash it I guess.

Correct. Flashpoint v1 is included in the rom zip. I'm going to update it soon, I'm just waiting on Samsung to get me the CQI2 source code. Apparently there's a Korean holliday going on right now so there's a bit of a delay on that.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JOSHSKORN:
Does anyone have a picture of the Grace apps in use? I still haven't used them and am not sure what they look like.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] weaverinva:
Xposed link dead; Grace dialer?

The Xposed link to TopJohnWu's exposed flashable zip does not work. FYI

Have you ever thought about porting the grace dialer? It has a number look up that is pretty decent.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tattmann:
Hey, got a problem. My sons phone on v9 with the flash point zl kernel is completely refusing to calibrate the battery %. I'm at my wits end. He currently has a tqthl 11800 mah battery in and can charge it all night, take it off and use it for 5 minutes and it's already dropped 10 or more %. It lasts about 6 hours with minimal use before it hits 5%. It's not the battery, it does it with my zl battery too. My phone calibrated it fine, but his simply won't. Do you have any clue as to why? Anything I can try to fix it?

Just to let you know, his phone problem boiled down to debloat broke some programs. I installed v9, used debloat. His phone was not making or receiving calls also. I reinstalled 9, no debloat, the battery is now lasting like mine, and its making and receiving calls, and running well. However, I have now installed v10, and its running great. There seems to be real issues to speak of. I will be installing 10 in mine shortly. Thank you again.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JOSHSKORN:
OK I just tried to download and install the new modem. I'm on Windows 10. Odin Froze and crashed during the installation and now my phone won't boot. I've tried it twice, now and I'm getting a Verizon Update Assistant message when trying to get into my phone just by regular boot. I can't even access TWRP, I get the same message. I'm currently in Download Mode, i was at least able to access that. Can someone help?

I'm using Odin v3.11.1.

Xposed Installation

-Download this version of xposed: Here

-Flash xposed zip using TWRP and clear dalvik-cache/cache

-go to this thread, thank the dev, go to the Download tab and download the latest Xposed manager app.

Stock CQL1 Kernel

DOWNLOAD - you will have to reflash the magisk zip after flashing the stock kernel file.

Debloat script

STEP 1.

-download Terminal Emulator

-download nuke.txt and move it to the root of you're sdcard

-rename nuke.txt to nuke.sh

-open nuke.sh with a text editor and

remove

any apps that you want to

keep

STEP 2.

Open the terminal emulator and enter the following commands (press enter after each line and grant su permission after first command):

su

cd sdcard

sh nuke.sh

Then reboot. You may get some force closes but just fight through it. If you get a message that says "file not found" or something like that, make sure you renamed the file and moved it to the root of the sdcard.

The great thing about this version of ModestRom is that it is built in image form thanks to a recent upgrade to SuperR.'s kitchen. That allows us a couple things; mainly a much cleaner install and if you decide you want to add the bloat back, all that's needed is to flash the rom zip on top of itself. It's still considered a dirty flash but it's really not. It completely zeroes out the system partition and adds the new image which is the same one that was already there. A dirty flash overwites the the files that has the same name but leaves everything else, this image will remove everything. That means if you have xposed installed, replaced the kernel, or manually added or replaced any system apps they will be removed as well.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] freduser:
After installing Xposed via magisk and rebooting I installed the manager app found at the link. After doing so I try opening the app and get the following error "Unfortunately Xposed installer has stopped". I have attempted to uninstall the magisk module and it doesn't make a difference.

Maybe I'm missing something...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
Try uninstalling and reinstalling. Then clear data and cache. You might also want to check that there isn't another installer app installed. I have it going on two different phones and haven't had any issues, I think maybe there's something else interfering with it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] freduser:
Interestingly the official installer works fine. I suppose the recommended Xposed installer download may be corrupt. Going to keep working on this.
