Hey,

You can't install an OTA with fastboot. Only factory image can be flashed with fastboot.

Now, if TWRP is installed, OTA causes issues as you figured... If you want to be 100% sure, follow these steps:

UnRoot:

Launch SuperSU and go to settings. Look for "full UnRoot" and tap "continue"

Tap "no" for restoring the boot image

Tap "no" for restoring the recovery image

SuperSU will close and your phone will reboot.

Reboot to bootloader.

Flash.boot.img to both slots (from the image you flashed, just to be sure). Note your active slot before flashing and switch back to your current slot...

Reboot...

From here your phone is stock if you didn't modify the system partition. You can either "check for update" in settings > about phone and download/install the OTA or ADB sideload from stock recovery.

Once updated, reinstall TWRP and SuperSU the usual way...

Good luck...
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bschatzow:
Many have said to download the full vs the ota and use a modified flashall.bat The batch file uses fastboot to flash the update. When I confirm all the steps I will post. I am sure that many other people are are also rooted with SU and TWRP and are not running a custom ROM. We are looking for an easy way to install the monthly updates.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] 5.1:
Hey,

Go ahead and flash the factory image removing the -w from the flash-all.bat.

You'll have to reinstall TWRP and SuperSU anyway.

Yes a lot of people are running stock Rooted ROM and you know TWRP is not mandatory. You can boot the IMG, make the changes you want, backup and reboot.

If you don't install zip often and want to keep your system the closest to stock, I wouldn't install it.

This way, when you want to take an OTA, simply UnRoot > take the OTA > reRoot > done.

It's up to you :P

Good luck...
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bschatzow:
Do you flash the full image via flashall (modified) or the OTA file?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] 5.1:
Hey,

Either way you should be good. I'm not used to install OTA. When I buy a new phone, it doesn't last long before i install another ROM...

To avoid all issues, I would rather flash the full image with -w removed. This way, even if you forget to remove something, you don't risk to brick your phone. :good:

Cheers...
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] mattkelly:
I followed the instructions in this thread to return to stock, but I still get "no command" when I try to access the stock recovery. Though I suspect it still works, because when I flash the 7.1.1 build and let it take the OTA update to 7.1.2, it updates/flashes on its own perfectly fine. So question: is it even possible to access the stock recovery on a fully stock Pixel phone?

Before I continue on my merry way, I'd love to get it back in full factory shape. I'm fine wiping everything and starting from scratch.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bschatzow:
I never got back to "Factory Recovery". I did get the TWRP recovery which is what I wanted. There must be an additional fastboot flash needed to get it. I stopped looking as I wanted TWRP and have it working correctly. Hopefully someone knows the name of the file needed for the stock recovery . I had the same exact problem where the recovery did not get installed.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] 5.1:
Hello,

When you have the "no command"

Try pressing the power button and tap volume up once, should display the menu. Let me know...

Good luck...

The stock recovery is now part of the "boot.img" in the zip of the factory image. That's why I told you to flash it + full unroot before attempting to take the OTA... :)

Is that what you were looking for?

Cheers...
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] mattkelly:
That's it! I feel foolish. Thanks for taking the time to explain it...again!

If you are unfamiliar with the command line, you can read this helpful topic: https://xdaforums.com/pixel-xl/how-to/guide-pixel-xl-android-8-1oreo-unlock-t3715279

Assuming you have an international version (unlockable), just unlock the bootloader... It's probably noted in the link i gave you above, but... BACKUP all your important datas, unlocking the bootloader will wipe your device :)

Has anyone had any experience with cellrizon and their products? I am interested in their Type C charge cable/dock listed above. I'm thinking it would be a perfect, sub-$10 car charger/cradle. Please chime in with thoughts/knowledge
[Google Pixel XL Accessories] ahent:
I have not but I am a bit apprehensive about having my phone support itself by the charging port. Seems like a recipe for broken solder joints.
[Google Pixel XL Accessories] Connorj2005:
That's a concern of mine as well. It looks like there is a lip or back of sorts, but I cannot tell how extensive or supportive it is. If I order it and it proves unstable, then I could just use it with the phone laying down on a table. I'm more worried about its ability to safely carry and deliver electric current
[Google Pixel XL Accessories] James4.0:
Nope, not touching it if the phone is supported by the port.

Wake Controls

To get the wake controls working: Turn on the control you want to use in Kernel Adiutor and then, using a root file explorer, go to /sys/android_touch2/ then find the corresponding file ie doubletap2wake and open the file with a text editor. If the file says 0 change it to 1, if it's already one just save and exit. After that it should work every time until you turn it back off in KA. If you want to turn it back on just repeat the above process.

I consider this to be as good as the wake controls are going to get. They've never really worked reliably but at least with this way it does and to be honest I probably won't put too much more work into getting it any better. Sorry.

Hi,

is there any chance for a F version?

Thanks a lot!

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
Yes, I was just now uploading versions for the F,G,T, and w8. Just keep in mind that these are beta releases and untested on those the devices. The F version is booting and running fine on my 910V but if you decide you want to try it, you would in fact be the first.:)

Here's the F link If you want to try it now. I'm going to test the others before I update the op.

Oh really. That sucks, that's actually the one I'm running right now since it was the last one I tested. I kind of thought they would work since I used the same method that Ram121 uses but maybe there's something I'm missing still. Did you use or Magisk or supersu? Or neither?

Dear Kevin,

thanks a lot for your quick reply and upload, but I have to say, that the F version doesn't work on my Note 4.

Hi [MENTION=5285430]kevintm78[/MENTION] Do you think you can add audio settings gain control on kernel so it can work on kernel adiutor? With the beastmode kernel I can control audio gain for speaker, headset, etc, something like FauxSound, but inside kernel adiutor.

[MENTION=5285430]kevintm78[/MENTION] Thanks for you awesome work, I did run into an issue, I flashed flaspoint kernel for n7 port v2, and for some reason the bluetooth will not detect my bluetooth headset. Bluetooh detects other devices, TVs, other phones, just not my headset, during the discovery process my headset is enabled to pair mode, and the note 4 doesn't list the headset.

I can confirm it is not my headset, I have tested the headset pairing on a galaxy s6 and a htc m9, all pair just fine.

Flashpoint kernel is installed on this n7 port.

Any change for a version without magisk ?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
Sorry buddy, I've been a little bit MIA lately. If you're using ModestRom then you're OK to flash this kernel right on top. I should have a new version ready soon that will be safe to flash too.

Linux v3.10.108 has been released and that looks to be the last Linux version they're going to release for this particular kernel. There will still be upgrades on my end though.

Yeah I definitely will make the next version without root. That way the folks that are using the folks that wasn't too use the beta version of magisk doesn't have to go through the magisk flash either.

Does the latest v2 kernel support safety net? It fails in my Chevy's note 5 port on cts profile and basic integrity. Tried core only mode also. I also tried stock and port kernels.

Surprisingly android pay didnt show any errors. I have'nt tried using it though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
I think that rom has xposed baked in, is that right? If so, run the xposed uninstaller and that should fix it. Oh and flash the unsu.zip from osmosis. There's a link for both of those in the op.

You may want to check first to see if text messaging works because I've been having trouble in that area with his N7 port (and maybe all N7 ports).

Development will pick back up here, I just have a few things taking up all my free time at the moment but it shouldn't be much longer.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] sam298:
I used unsu before. But again I started from scratch. Uninstalled magisk, ran unsu and xposed uninstaller. Then installed kernel which installed magisk - wiped dalvik and cache. Safety net failed. But now I have a different issue, looks like kernel includes magisk manager 5.3. If I update the manager to 5.4.3, magisk manager crashes even if I cleared its data. I went back with 5.3 and using core only mode. Can't think of anything. Is there any other kernel I can try to isolate the issue? I know paulpizz kernel supports safetynet but I can't find a link.

Planning to try android pay in a store and check. Other than the safetynet fail error, the kernel is awesome - battery is good, love the wake controls and sms/mms works with no issues (I am not using a N7 port though).

Update: I flashed stock kernel, has the same issues. I think it has to do something with the ROM. I will try android pay and see if it works or not.

I'm using v2 for 910F on alxndr ROM and everything seems fine. I have a little issue, though. Every time I reboot, all saved WiFi networks are lost. Anyone else having this?

Thanks dev for giving the f users a chance!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
I'm glad to hear that for the most part everything is ok. For the wifi password issue, look for this line in your build.prop <ro.securestorage.support=true> and change it to <ro.securestorage.support=false>. I must have forgotten to include that in the default.prop in the kernel but I'll be sure to add it for the next update.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] blackhawk_LA:
Fixed! Thanks!

Also I'd like to ask you if you recommend to turn zram off (and if so, which app to use, because kernel adiutor and ex kernel manager shows different options) , because I've read that it uses a lot the cpu and with 3GB of ram it's not worth it. Touchwiz still seems to have serious ram management issues, as it tends to become laggy on some situations.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] blackhawk_LA:
After using the kernel for some days, I've noticed that the phone is not so snappy and tends to lag. Flashing stock kernel resolves it. I think it might be because I'm using latest rom amd firmware (alexndr rom) and the kernel is not yet up to date. I have to say that Samsung seems to have done something right for their first time on Galaxy note 4 lifetime because i feel like I'm using an aosp rom. So if the flashpoint kernel gets updated I think it would be unbeatable!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
I thought I was pretty close to releasing an update but I had tried to bring in some different govs and some of them are misbehaving. Once I get that sorted out it should be in good shape. I'm thinking maybe just a few more days.

Would not pass the splash screen on my N910T stock EQI2 latest firmware. I'm not using a port rom... Also, please don't raise the volume as this OP suggests because it causes distortion on quality Bluetooth stereos.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] brc6985:
Agreed on the volume issue. I'm on EQI2 firmware as well, but using stock deoxex rom by jovy23 and it's booting just fine.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] li0nh3art3d:
i may have to give this another go when the update comes in. i am on the stock odex. i do have supersu so it may be that i need to unsu before installing. I'll also try the deodex too. thanks!

update: after much patience, i finally got my phone to boot, without xposed on the deodexed EQI2 build. The only issue I'm having now is that it stays on the boot animation for 30 min whenever I flash Xposed 87, 88.2, or 89.

Seems like a nice kernel though. I do enjoy Xposed modules though, and safetynet is a non-issue to me as I don't use android pay and I'm already logged into my snapchat.

Flashpoint v3 -- Update

I've updated the OP with the features and links to the new version. Be aware that AndroidFileHost is being problematic it seems so let me know if you have issues getting to the downloads.

Also, I strongly advise uninstalling Magisk or SuperSU before flashing the kernel. I have the latest stable version of Magisk included in the zip and there will be less conflicts if you just remove everything first. In both SuperSU and Magisk there's an option in the app to do a full unroot. There's also an unrooted zip for those that would rather have that.

There are versions for the following:

Stock

Stock-extended battery

Port

Port-extended battery

If your asking about the benefits of F2FS its a file system catered towards flash memory, greater read and write speeds to the internal storage.

Speaking of which, Magisk is non-functional when the system partitions file system is set to F2FS under Flashpoint V3, Module manager states magisk isnt activated. When attempting to activate magisk it gives an error 13 resource is busy.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Netharion:
Flash flashpoint v3 in twrp, do full backup in twrp to microSD, go to wipe then advanced wipe in TWRP and choose change file system for data and cache partitions to F2FS, that will format those partitions and change it to F2FS. From here go to TWRP settings and choose "Use rm -rf instead of formatting" then restore your backup you just made.

S-View Cover Hack - untested

Hack to do what ?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
Which kernel are you using and what phone model?

Kernel adiutor is always going to display 3220 according to what I've read on the threads of other extended battery kernels. All the fix is supposed to do is give a more accurate battery percentage reading so you're not setting on 1% battery for days.

I don't have an extended battery so all the information I have on it is second hand info. I do know that it takes a charging cycles to get the most accurate reading.

This is something I just happened to stumble across. When reading through some of the port threads I had been seeing reports of s-view not being displayed right in these roms. This fix is supposed to fix that. I don't have an s-view case though.

Magisk Update

I got a bootloop when flashing the latest version (v15). If you do decide to flash it be sure to have the uninstaller on your sdcard. Flashing that will bring your phone back to life. My recommendation would be to stay with v14 until further notice.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevintm78:
Magisk v15 update

So, I was able to get v15 installed. I had to use the complete uninstall option in the magisk manager app. After that I was able to flash v15 and everything seems to be working as it should.
