On the last builds there is no Flip case. Because of this, the screen does not turn off when the lid is closed. What is the reason?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ripee:
Where else would bootloader and modem updates be taken from if not the stock rom? Why would this fact mean that you wouldn't need to update yours? It's a good idea to keep up with bootloader and modem updates if you flash the latest builds because you may run into stability issues. This is also true for wifi-only tablets.

None of us have any idea how or for what you use your phone (other than calling of course). Only you are able to answer these questions for yourself by trying the latest build yourself.

What was the last build on which build did the flip cover work properly?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] negativman:
February 3rd.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] tripLr:
The 3rd. There is no option in settings for the cover screen either.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ripee:
I think I know what the cause could be. I'll run another build and let you know when it's up.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MRC01:
I don't understand your reply. If the bootloader & modem updates do indeed come from the stock ROM, doesn't that mean everyone should install the latest stock ROM before installing Lineage? And wouldn't this also mean if you did so, you don't need any other modem firmware?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ripee:
The bootloader and modem do come from stock, but they are only the bootloader and modem, not the full stock rom, which is made up of the bootloader, modem, system, cache, etc. Flashing the bootloader and modem .tar file only flashes the bootloader and modems partitions, nothing else.

About the flip cover, I was wrong. It has to be one of the kernel commits from Feb 3, if the 0203 build was the last one on which the flip cover worked.

Edit: flipflap problem found! Running another build.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MRC01:
Clarification for other users: when you flash the entire stock ROM, it replaces several partitions: bootloader, modem, system, etc. When you go to TWRP and wipe the system, it doesn't wipe the bootloader or modem.

So if someone is running the latest entire stock ROM before loading Lineage, he's already got the latest bootloader & modem, so he can skip loading Ripee's bootloader & modem .TAR file. Otherwise, he can flash that .TAR file.

The real value of Ripee's .TAR is when Samsung issues a new ROM having new bootloader or modem code. If someone is already running Lineage, it's easier to install Ripee's .TAR file than an entire new system ROM just to get the bootloader & modem. That's what I'll do next time.

Note: my phone lost mobile network again. I turned Airplane mode on, then off again. This didn't restore it. I checked the APN, it's correct. Then I clicked Network Operators, hit Refresh. The first time, it gave me an error. The second time, it showed several carriers. I picked T-Mobile, and BANG it works!

So I found a workaround to this problem of intermittently dropping mobile network. And, the workaround suggests where the bug might lie.

I have a last_kmsg file... anyone want it?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] dferferfer:
Berliner Sparkasse App works great with Fingerprint!
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ripee:
This is only true for branded carrier variants because both the bootloader and modem is usually updated in the same stock roms. For non-branded variants, ie. trltexx/trltedt, each country/carrier updates their own source code with either one or both, not necessarily in the same update of their stock rom. In these cases, I mix and match the latest bootloaders and modems and package them together in the same .tar file.

Branded carriers generally release updates less frequently than non-branded carriers, which could explain why they update both the BL and CP at once.

I'm just mentioning this for clarity.

[MENTION=6005084]ripee[/MENTION] I also don't get any sound on x206 build t3910 call or playing music no sound.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MRC01:
Good point. There's another good reason for your custom .TAR file. Always having the latest version of bootloader & modem regardless of carrier or brand.

For me, this ROM is stable and everything works. Your mileage may vary.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] bellaxxmorte:
Thank you! Love it!
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] jetscreamer001:
I love this rom. Is incredibly stable, but I have not tested cellular data or the phone app since I don't have a gsm sim. Thanks to all the developers who made this possible so that my 3 year old T-Mobile Note 4 is relevant again. And shame on all OEM who disregard flagship devices after two short years. If not for this rom, I would still be on the August patch.

Another weird thing with 0205 had Bluetooth streaming music all day, switched to a call, no audio in or received on the other end. Disconnected Bluetooth, disabled rebooted tried it all nogo. Weird. No speaker no earpiece. Didn't have wired earphone headset.

Went back to clean install 0203. Will try later
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] fastguy:
Can you try to reproduce the same with 0203? I don't think the Bluetooth bug is solved since it first appear months ago.

How's the flip cover in today's build?

Can someone with trlteduos please confirm if the SIMs are working or not.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] negativman:
The flip-cover works. Thanks for the correction.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MRC01:
Earlier I mentioned this ROM sleeps properly when the phone isn't in use. It usually does, but sometimes it fails to sleep. This bug was also in CM. The symptom is battery runs down faster when idle. Sometimes you can feel the phone is warmer than it should be when idle. You can see if this is happening by looking at your battery screen.

Attached screen shot shows my phone not properly sleeping for several hours (even though it was idle), then suddenly it started to sleep properly.

What trigger it to sleep properly was a simple user action: I pulled the list of background apps, then hit CLEAR to erase them all. This shouldn't be necessary, but at least it's a simple workaround.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] tripLr:
For the last few months since [MENTION=6005084]ripee[/MENTION] has been building, I have been running opengapps full,

Dirty flashing durning the week, clean flashing with full again. And never had the Bluetooth problem

I ran opengapps full for the Pixel stuff mostly.

So over the last couple weeks been busy, and just loaded nano.

OK. Yes I did get a Bluetooth crash, today on 0203 but it wasn't Bluetooth. Of was phone app or dialer, didn't get which.

Here is the scenario

Drove truck, tested Bluetooth call out. I have 2 Bluetooth devices, an fm-blutooth converter and a sport phone headset. On either or but not both.

Worked. My wife called back worked

Listened to streaming audio all day via iheart radio app 8hrs

Inbound call rang one time.

Tried to call back. Dialer crash ( report this crash screen). Still had Bluetooth audio

Tried to call back. Dialer connected showed seconds in call no sound, tried to switch to handset a s speaker, no sound I'm call

Tried again same thing.

So my thinking is the phone app disconnects from the Bluetooth internal software links , not the Bluetooth radio to the earpiece.

Because I still had music after I hung up.

I was able to turn off Bluetooth, resume normal calling, and reinitialize

I read thru the logs , there is a full log, a log with the word blue as a filter and a log with phone as a filter.

I used logcat extreme with root.

The red listed errors show phone app crash not as much Bluetooth

How to activate volte in this rom
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] rob_z11:
Last two builds for trite, I am having problems with fingerprint authentication. I can register fingerprint, but it won't work on locks screen or any app which uses it.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MRC01:
Regarding the mobile network bug I mentioned:

This bug was happening every couple of hours, but has not recurred. It looks like this workaround (explicitly setting the mobile network operator) is a one-time permanent fix. I would imagine this setting is normally set automatically from the sim card. So perhaps there is a bug in how that is done, and once you set it explicitly this overrides that logic.

Also, I don't use fingerprint locks but I set up a fingerprint just to see if it works. It did, no problems.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] samej71:
It is my understanding that it is not yet supported.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] JudasD:
has anyone noticed any apps not working correctly with lineage on the note 4? I installed mailwise and it will not refresh exchange mail. The app does run, it just never refreshes the mail. My co-worker has a note8 running nougat and mailwise works just fine on his and refreshes just fine.

I have noticed a few other apps will FC compared to TW marshmallow, but mailwise is the weirdest acting.

Thanks,

Is the kernel updated to the latest linux kernel 4.15.2
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MRC01:
I'm running the Feb 3 build. GMail works, both IMAP and Exchange Server, both email & calendar.

The kernel in this ROM reports version 3.10.108.

4.15 is the latest Linux kernel, most desktop distros aren't even using it yet. Android is usually a version or two behind desktop distros. From what I read, even Android 8 Oreo is typically running kernel version 4.4.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] tripLr:
I'm working on learning to build the kernel only for this ROM..

There is a couple of "upstream" kernel build threads on XDA. Not for noobs. There is also kernel updates on other builds and ROMs for just about any device. Stay tuned or go for it and build one and go for it.

Any way to load titanium backup app without FCS?

Titanium Backup working for me on builds 2/3 and now 2/10.

No FCs on this or any of the Google Apps.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] kevintm78:
Unfortunately, the v3.10.108 kernel is EOL for us. Updating to 3.18 or higher would be a monumental task that would likely break more things than it improves. That's not to say that you can't cherry-pick a few things here and there but most of the changes would be incompatible (see hidden quote below).

I'm not trying to discourage you wanting to build your own kernel though and if you need any help getting started let me know. I'm certainly no expert but I've read a lot words written by experts. Lol. It's just that this has been discussed many times in this How-To thread on kernel upstreaming and If you're interested in building kernels it's an excellent thread to suscribe to.

Here's a snippet of that discussion:

Sorry for being off-topic, just thought it was a good chance to share a thread that helped me a lot.:)

FWIW, my Note 8 tablet running official LOS reports kernel version 3.0.101.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] tripLr:
thanks for the moral support :p.

just built my laptop kernel.

lessons learned :

in the build for your above listed code posted for the android device, are many drivers compiled and built in the android kernel that will never be used in the hardware on an android hardware.

someone ported a stock generic kernel source from the kernel source code posted on git.kernel.org for their release 3.x.x.x and added the drivers for their handset

yes, it will work, the kernel dont care it dont see the broadcom 802.11 chipset, or the intel Network card, but it is loaded in memory in boot up.

its kind of like having 52 cards in a deck of cards to sort through when you only need the aces and kings.

some developers of roms are making custom kernels that are really stable and fast for the device they develop for.

so thanks for posting the info , it really helps me see android in general is kludged together, hey if it works its stable.. haha

Off topic, the biggest problem in building android in general is not having an open source bootloader like grub2, which can select the kernel, the recovery, and the rom, each seperately at boot up.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Software Guru:
I too have been experiencing this recently, loaded the latest build and will see if there is any improvement
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] rob_z11:
I got it working. I went and deleted all th previous installation of titanium, and it worked after.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MRC01:
Update on the 2/10 build for SM-N910T: it's flawless as far as I can tell. Everything works (GPS, BT, WiFi, etc.), all my apps run without any problems, performance and battery life have improved & smoothed after a few use/recharge cycles. The failure to sleep when not in use happens only rarely, about as often as it happened on the OEM Android 6 build, and when it does happen, simply closing all background apps fixes it.

Functionally, this build feels ready for official status. Of course there may be other hurdles for official status, like kernel versions etc. But functionally, this build is great.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] smartidoos:
indeed ,the latest rom of 12/2 is very stable ,batterylive is almost fine, but how can I close all background apps in one wipe, ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MRC01:
From home screen, click menu/app list button. Scroll to top of list. Touch "CLEAR ALL". Android sends a CLOSE to every background app.

No Bluetooth problems after 0211 so far
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MRC01:
I don't have a BT headset but my car BT connects to this phone and it works perfectly: audio with controls, and phone calls.

I did find a bug: a wired headset with microphone does not work with voice calls. But it works just fine in the Skype app.

Regarding fingerprint, I have a dumb question. My phone lets me set up a fingerprint. That works. But there is nowhere I can find in settings to use the fingerprint to unlock the phone or do anything else. What gives?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] smartidoos:
indeed ,until now everythink works great ,thx
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] rob_z11:
I ran into the issue with wired headset with microphone, and people could not hear me. Show stopper when you spend 12 hours on the phone. Everything else is working great. Wish I could stay on this.

You need to enable lock screen with either pattern or numerical combination, and fingerprint will unlock
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MRC01:
Yes, the wired mic bug is weird because it works fine in other apps, just not in the phone.

The fingerprint is wonky, unreliable:

Takes several tries to register each finger (70% fail, 30% success)

When adding new fingers, they don't appear in the list of fingerprints even after successful registration.

On the PIN code lock screen, when I swipe my finger it always fails to read showing a red error message, no matter how many times I try, using fingers previously successfully registered.

All that said, the fingerprint reader on this phone was always wonky and unreliable, even with the OEM Samsung/TMobile Android 6 ROM. But it did work at least sometimes, which it hasn't done with this ROM. But even if fingerprint unlock worked perfectly, I wouldn't use it for security & legal reasons.

The phone should set this automatically from your sim card. But that said, here are settings from my US T-Mobile N910T:

Settings, Wireless & Networks, More, Cellular Networks, Preferred network type: LTE

Settings, Wireless & Networks, More, Cellular Networks, Access PointNames: pick from the list. For me it's T-Mobile US LTE, fast.t-mobile.com. For you it may be different.

Settings, Wireless & Networks, More, Cellular Networks, Network Operators: blank list. Click the circular refresh icon. After a long pause, available networks will appear. For me, it's T-Mobile, AT&T, Verizon and I pick T-Mobile. For you, it will be different. Pick the right one.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] smartidoos:
Thx, I know this I have T-mobile Netherlands, LTE is the same as 4G, that's what I have to see, with some others roms you can change this
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MRC01:
More info on the wired headset / mic bug: the headset & mic work in other apps: the system Recorder, Sype, etc. Just doesn't work in the dialer (no audio, nor mic). So the problem appears not to be a device or driver issue, it is something with the dialer app. And it is specific to wired headsets; it works fine over BT, even in the dialer.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] clewis.it:
Does it work if you go to settings in the dialer, tap Accessibility, and change TTY Mode to TTY VCO?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MRC01:
Yes - TTY VC0 works! In more detail: TTY Modes with wired headset:

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Mohito6:
Just installed the 0214 build. Everything seems to be fine with no issues at all. I wanted to ask a couple of things that I noticed from the 0212 build:

1) When in Settings there is a suggestion at the top telling me to set up a payment method. When I tap on it I get the error "Google Play services has stopped". Do you have the same issue as well? BTW I installed gapps that I had downloaded from late 2017. Maybe that is cause the issue?! If yes, how to installed the latest Gapps?

2) Is there any way that I can set the button light duration? Right now I believe they light up for about 5 seconds. Can I somehow reduce it to 2 seconds?

3) I use a PIN as my screen lock. Can I set it so when I type the full pin the phone unlocks automatically without having to tap on the confirm (✓) button?

Thanks a lot in advance! :D
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] nepal12:
I can confirm your First point. I am on 0212 build. And I am also getting a "Google Play services has stopped" error.

Hi all,

Can anybody advise?

My Phone app repeatedly crashes - As soon as I open it. Made my first call since flashing this ROM - then every time since that first call, the app crashes. Answering calls seems to cause the same difficulties - Phone rings but can't answer it using the app (in fact the doesn't even open - the phone just rings.

Tried to restart the phone 'soft' and 'hard' reset - same issues occur.

This has happened now on two of the builds I've tried. Followed the installations instructions precisely (unless:confused:)

N910F

BL - DQL2

CP - DQE3

12.02.2018 Lineage OS Build

gapps - Nano

Any Ideas?

UPDATE - FOR THOSE WHO MAY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM

Apparently a common cause of the phone app crashing is the google phone app not being set as the default. Go to settings -> apps -> gear icon -> phone app, to select it.
