Both are in Nougat, the first video working correclty is on AICP ROM (LineageOS based). That's how it's supposed to work and is what SlimROM's Nougat ROM does as well. SlimRecents is a "peeking recents" style, it just doesn't make sense for it to switch to the last app. That's why I LOVE it :)

Yeah, I'm new to Nougat and absolutely do not understand why it's the way it is. A quick double tap of the recents button already is set to go to your last app, why would they be redundant on making the second delayed press go back to the last app too?

I'm curious what most people are using. AOSP, OmniRecents or SlimRecents?

I can't seem to figure out how to downgrade back to a stock ROM after installing this:

lineage-14.1-20170331-UNOFFICIAL-trltetmo.zip (can't post link yet)

I believe it's the Nougat 7.1.1

I want to downgrade to 6.0.1 or 5.1.1

One message I see is "Recovery is not Seandroid Enforcing". Seems like all fixes suggest reinstalling stock ROM, which I'm trying to do, but can't.

Is your phone booting up and functioning? If it is, why are you talking about debrick? I'm assuming that you're "new" to all this. I suggest you read up(especially the stickies) and be comfortable before you go further.

No, it doesn't boot up at all now.

I know I initially said "I" installed the custom ROM, I didn't, I bought it that way. The previous owner won't do anything to help. The only thing he did was provide a link to the ROM he had installed, nothing more, not even the tutorial related to it, I found that on my own (wait, he's made it more than clear how incompetent/ignorant I am as a person).

I've been searching and reading for 3 days straight now. Getting to the point again where I accept defeat, assume the money lost.

Moving on... I've rooted other phones before without issues.

I follow a tutorial on how to downgrade to a stock ROM.

http://www.androidrootz.com/2014/11/how-to-unrootunbrick-galaxy-note-4.html

Odin stops with various errors.

I could still boot device into TWRP-3.1.0

Reflashed LineageOS 14.1 ROM from SD to get it working again.

LineageOS 14.1 ROM would boot up, run for almost a minute and a half and shut down.

Pull battery, reboot into LineageOS 14.1 ROM, same thing.

Run Odin, connect device to computer, try to flash stock ROM, error again (different one). Somehow, it says "There is no PIT partition"

I followed this tutorial: https://xdaforums.com/note-4/orig-development/note-4-pit-files-repartiton-f-g-c-t-w8-t3282641

Yes, the whole freezer thing overnight.

I have the latest USB drivers installed.

When I connected to the PC, an error popped up saying "...drivers not installed properly..." so I let Windows Update install the correct drivers.

I can connect to the PC now, press the power button for more than 10 seconds, eventually a popup message says "USB Device Not Recognized by Windows"

I've tried the following stock ROMs, 4.4.4, 5.1.1. I finally managed to download 6.0.1, but haven't been able to try it.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HappyPlato:
All I can say is that if you can boot into TWRP(I assumed you install the N910T version), then your phone is not bricked. All these "debricking" you're doing is potentially harming than fixing.

You assume the risk, when you buy 2nd hand. But based on what you're saying, it sounds like it may also have hardware issues(I don't think software will fix). Was it working when you got it? If you can return it, I suggest you do.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] logosA:
QualcommDrv

this is the Qualcomm Drivers(x86 and x64, choose your system's version and install) .

Without that your pc will not recognize your phone.

Uninstall everything related to samsung from your pc.

Kies, smart link, usb drivers. Use revo-unistaller for this to be sure nothing have left behind.

Go to control panel>system>device manager and remove anything that is related to your phone . If prompt delete drivers associated with that, say yes. Reboot your pc

Have saved QualcommDrv, samsung usb drivers and Odin. These are the tools you are going to need and must have.

after uninstall everything, unzip and install QualcommDrv.

Take off your battery, press power buton for 10 sec . Connect the phone to pc (without battery)

QualcommDrv will install the correct drivers for your phone. After that If in devices and printers it is recognized as Qualcomm 8084 .... its ok to proceed . if not , check again drivers and their installation

If windows says device drivers are not correctly installed and prompt to download and install, stop and cancel it.

IT will replace the QualcommDrv and you will not be able to see your phone correctly.

You need to keep QualcommDrv installed. When this is done and you are sure its correct and working, unplug your phone and install Samsung usb drivers. Reboot pc

unzip odin in desktop (or where ever its easy to access).

with your phone freezed and battery charged try to go to download mode. If succeed, connect to pc and with odin try to flash stock rom. If not ......

That what you need to have correct and working in order to START. THIS IS ONLY THE FIRST STEP

YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND

this is a hardware failure of the motherboard and will never will be completely fixed. These steps will only help you resurrect your phone and maybe give you the chance to be able to use it again.

It has nothing to do with software that failed to install. It was just the result and not the real problem, which is a diffect motherboard like thousand others. Sadly this is a common problem with Note 4 that happened to many users.

I have the same problem and I also bought it second hand knowing its problematic but not how much.

After that I realized the problem and the solutions to it. Every one of us is having a slightly different behavior of the phone.

I, for example cannt use the phone without the ext sdcard with unbrick image in it. When I take it out phone, will not start, reboot , do nothing.With the card in it its working almost perfect.

So have patience and read and search to know what you are dealing with.

Good luck

I managed to revive the Note 4 using a stock ROM.

Now, I have more questions like;

- Is this a problem on ALL models of the Note 4 or is it limited to a certain model?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dicksteele:
I don't believe you truly downgraded. I'm assuming you were on a 6.0.1 bootloader running a compiled 7.1.1 ROM. It probably hosed some partitions, and other things. Flashing the Stock ROM normalized it.

Most of time flashing a stock touchwiz rom will fix the "damage" that results in flashing a CM ROM.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ziggy1971:
I have no idea what kernel, bootloader, etc. were/are used in the LineageOS ROM.

That is not why XDA exists.

I just got done downloading the latest build 5/26/2017

I used the app below and build a ROM in under half hour. It's the first time I used so I missed rooted, removing Knox, debloating. It does all that.

https://xdaforums.com/chef-central/android/best-android-roms-editor-assayyedkitchen-t3410545

This is probably one of the best I've seen. It does take some reading. For the debloat portion (removing crap you don't want) there are two ways. And there are text files it uses as the base. So those need to be reviews. All of the core things are under the TOOLS directory. Go through every one and understand what each do.

It's older, I'm not sure if anything needs to be updated yet. So far it's working great.

I had some errors on the Deluxe Kitchen above. But I have not verified my python install to see if that is what is caused them.

Looks like the stock ROM, definitely a TouchWiz based ROM. That message on screen could be one of the settings in developer options. USB notification in status bar too. Look for settings about showing stats, turn them off.

[Huawei Watch] TheSt33v:
I have a small hunch that some of you want a one shot, easy way to downgrade to the most recent AW 1.5 version. Here it is. Flash with TWRP.

THIS WILL WIPE YOUR DATA!!!! THIS WILL WIPE YOUR DATA!!! THIS WILL WIPE YOUR DATA!!!

The first boot takes a while. Be patient.

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=889764386195900228

To disable OTA updates, do the following:

1. Download supersuwear.zip (attached to this post) and flash in TWRP to root the watch.

2. Factory reset the watch in TWRP.

3. Boot normally. DO NOT SET UP THE WATCH YET.

4. At the welcome screen, hold the power button until you get into settings.

5. Enable USB debugging.

6. Download the latest version of Google Play Services from here: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-services-android-wear/

7. Connect to your computer and install this apk file by performing the following command:

adb install -r C:\path to apk file\file.apk

This might take a few minutes. Do not close the window until it says Success.

6. Either use the batch file attached to this post (rename to killUpdate.bat, move to same folder as adb.exe, double click on it) or perform the following commands:

adb shell

su

pm disable com.google.android.gms/.update.SystemUpdateServiceActiveReceiver

pm disable com.google.android.gms/.update.SystemUpdateService

pm disable com.google.android.gms/.update.SystemUpdateGcmTaskService

pm disable com.google.android.gms/.update.SystemUpdateWearableActivity

pm disable com.google.android.gms/.chimera.GmsIntentOperationService

7. Reboot the watch.

8. Flash unsu.zip to remove root if desired.

9. Feel free to setup and use the watch normally now.

You will need to repeat these steps if you ever factory reset the watch or delete the data for Google Play Services in the future. If the update ever pops up again, please let me know in this thread or pm me. If you change your mind and you want to go 2.0, use the restoreUpdate batch file in the same way that you used the killUpdate batch file.
