How is your mobile signal? Because for me it is trash when I'm in a slightly weak place so currently I'm on holiday away from my pc and I'm going to try and flash latest modem CP_N910FXXU1DRF1 rather than DQA1 which I have now because OP (from another thread; duplicate post) recommends this version even though it is not the latest. It may be because the device is old but I'm sure it is the modem version otherwise we would have complaints from other users.

I'll be using flashfire which I hope will work lol. Have used it on a verizon galaxy s4.

I appreciate your feedback and it would be great if you could mention what modem version you are using.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] kamikaze702k:
I'm using this with the bootloader/modem in 1

I have unlimited data so hardly ever need to use WiFi

Generally my 4G signals are always full but certain places i can only get 3G but still good and stable connection, all depends on your location and I guess network towers nearby depending on your network provider.

But rom wise it's very good, I think I've got sim death maybe 2 times since using this rom from 2.5 until now, the most minimal rom that's given me SIM death issue.

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Windroid-user:
Well some crazy sh*t happened lol. Firstly I'm running alexndr devbase 5.9 so not this rom.

I flashed flashpoint v4 beta and it instantly got me a signal and is outperforming the Pixel 2 XL?!? Can't even run a speedtest on that phone because it is that bad down here inside the caravan.

This is so suprisingly because last time I tried this kernel (around a year ago maybe less) it did the complete opposite which was "tricking" every single app that I wasn't connected to the internet when in fact I was using wifi.

Crazy right?

I'm running the Havoc Official Build. Can I dirty flash Ripee's Unofficial version on my phone? I've never dirty flashed an Unofficial on an Official before.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] tullian:
I used [MENTION=5554397]logosA[/MENTION]'s approach below to go from 0808 Official to 0826 Unofficial. I am not in a position to guarantee anything but for me, it worked flawlessly.

Make a TWRP backup first.

If updating doesn't work, wipe everything (except for your SD card), format data, restart to TWRP, and restore your backup. Should get you back as if nothing had happened. That's the way I do it when checking out a new ROM/version.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] jhford:
Thank you. I always do a Nandroid backup of everything and keep them on an external Micro SD Card in the following OTG device which I recommend to everyone and is your reward. But you'll also need to install Stickmount and Stickmount Pro from the Play Store to mount and unmount OTG:

Meenova Dash micro USB OTG

https://goo.gl/UtUzAs

Spread the word.

EDIT 1: [MENTION=8516000]tullian[/MENTION] Reporting back. I dirty flashed Ripee's Havoc Rom per your instructions. The phone (N910T) froze on reboot. I pulled the battery and rebooted and everything seems to be fine. Question. Ripee has always maintained bootloaders and modems. Should I flash any of these for the N910T? If so, which and how do I flash them (I haven't done this before)?

Thanks

EDIT 2: I take it all back. My phone doesn't work using Ripee's Unofficial Havoc ROM. I don't understand why that happened. So, I restored my Official Havoc ROM backup and the phone works.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] tullian:
[MENTION=6005084]ripee[/MENTION]

0826 Unofficial: Unfortunately, no cigar.

Looked good at first but using the search in the settings triggered "Call management keeps crashing...". Sim death during the night. Restart, sim is back. When I try to make a call, the screen turns black and the soft buttons light up. Phone becomes unresponsive, only way out is to pull the battery.

I tried again with a completely clean flash but that did not change anything.

Back to 0808 Official for now.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] logosA:
Ok, guys, please let me say a couple of things here.

1. About the ''Advanced Dirty Flash''.

This way of flashing is working 99% of the times.

Since wipe cashe Dallvik AND System, is like you clean flash the rom.

The problems could show though with the DATA, remaining from the OLD Rom.

That is the main issue here and not rom its self.

So, if you just want to update your current rom, with a newer build, most likely its going to work.

Some of you may know that I flash many roms in daily base.

Some times 3 or 4 in a day.

So this is how I am doing that, in order not to loose so much time with roms setting and APPS

I can tell you, that almost every time its working, no matter what rom I come from.

But its easy to notice also , bad behavior of the apps, not been installed, but just use the DATA partition of the last rom(s).

So, if you want to take a look in the new build and decide if you keep it or not, you can do that and then, when you have time and have backed up your apps and their data, go for a CLEAN FLASH of the rom.

2. About official and UN-official builds of a rom, any rom.

I hope you understand, its not right, flash an unofficial build and then report problems in the Official thread of the rom.

Also the other way around.

Its not right for the dev of the official or unofficial build to mix things up.

So, lets keep it clean as much as we can.

Report roms bugs, in its own thread, or if there isnt one, in devs other thread that may have, not mess in other threads, assign issues to whom have build it and is able to fix them.

Every dev is using his sources and plan, dont trouble them, more that already have , trying so hard to satisfy us.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] tullian:
Your "advanced dirty flash" is working. That was not the problem talked about in the last few posts.

Good point. Apologies to [MENTION=6582800]khalvat[/MENTION] for hi-jacking the thread!
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] jhford:
Before I tried the "advanced dirty flash" of Ripee's Unofficial Havoc ROM yesterday, my standard procedure re new ROMS, including official to unofficial and vice-versa, was as follows:

1. Complete Nandroid backup of existing ROM.

2. Factory reset twice.

3. Wipe dalvik, system, data, internal storage and cache twice

4. Format data.

5. Flash new ROM from my OTG SD Card.

6. Flash Pico Gapps from my OTG SD Card.

7. Flash delete Magisk from my OTG SD Card.

8. Flash Magisk from my OTG SD Card.

9. Flash Migrate zip file(s) to restore my apps from my OTG SD Card.

10. Flash earlier version of TWRP image from my OTG SD Card if 9 throws an error and Reboot Recovery (to earlier TWRP version).

11. Rerun 9, if necessary.

12. Wipe dalvik and cache.

13. Flash latest TWRP image, if necessary.

14. Reboot System

15. Install Stickmount, Stickmount Pro, and Migrate from Play Store.

16. Launch Stickmount and click "ok" to install patch.

17. Launch companion Migrate app to actually restore all apps (takes time).

18. Finish 17, including deleting the companion app.

19. Enjoy

Of course, I shortcut these steps when I flashed Ripee's Unofficial. Perhaps it wouldn't have made any difference and my phone still might not have be been functional.

Sorry for the length.

You probably need to change the way TB accesses your ext SD. In preferences, backup folder location, change to (I think) document provider and select your folder. If it's not document provider try one of the others....I can't remember exactly which one makes it work.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] mangojack01:
Select Document Provider.

Via native file manager, first choose ur extSdCard and Select, to grant permission, then navigate via TB file explorer to ur TB folder, then set the folder, "Use Current Location".

Hi [MENTION=6582800]khalvat[/MENTION],

Could you re-look at the kernal on GPS tracking cos I've tested with this updated ROM and found that I always get GPS not found even on open roads using either Google Maps or Waze. I've taken the liberty to restore to original firmware from Sammobile site and tested on the same roads again and I don't get the lost tracking signals. I will take a look at other ROMs and test it out, but I may not be surprised at all if all using the same platform unless otherwise mentioned. I've tested on another ROM built and am having the same issues as this. Tks

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Apex Predator:
This is a general appeal for ideas, but mostly directed at Havoc [Havoc-OS v2.8 2019-09-09] users - I need your help. I've searched high and low for a solution and at this point I need someone else using Havoc to confirm something for me. The issue is phone call audio routing when headphones or 3.5mm audio cable is plugged in. On my old S2 for many years when I was driving I'd connect an audio cable to the 3.5mm jack and it would send audio (music, audiobooks, podcasts etc) to my car stereo. Then if I made or received a phone call, the audio from the other party would also come through the car stereo and the phone mic would easily pick up my voice a metre or so away, just like it would on speakerphone mode for a regular call.

Now I have an issue with the Note 4 where all regular audio out, music etc, will go to the car stereo but for some reason it isn't routing phone call audio to the car stereo OR the phone's external speaker. They can hear me fine from the Note 4 mic but I hear nothing. In addition, the call recording reveals that their voice IS being recorded along with mine....but there's no way for me to hear them.

I have tested this at home as well with regular wired headphones (not the handsfree type designed for phones with a mic on the cable), just plain old headphones I use to listen to stuff at the PC. The same thing happens: music and other normal audio goes to headphones but I cannot hear any audio in a call.

This is weird and I can't figure it out. My old S2 did this effortlessly for many years through multiple different ROMs and still does it now running Nougat. In my searches I came across what appears to be a solution, one of the only apps of it's kind for many years called SoundAbout, but it crashes straight away on my phone, and I read the same complaint from several users on Oreo onwards. The app seems to have been abandoned by it's dev years ago.

I've looked everywhere in Havoc settings and I can't find anything obvious that addresses the issue so I'm turning it over to you smart people. Any ideas? Before you say something like "just use a bluetooth headset in the car" - No. I'm not looking to change anything, I just want this (very simple) thing to work as it has for years, since Gingerbread! Btw, I only discovered this today for the first time as I'd never tried it before so I have no idea if it would have worked on earlier versions of Havoc or any of the Oreo ROMs I ran.

Thanks guys.

TLDR - [Havoc-OS v2.8 2019-09-09] phone call audio not routing to car stereo via 3.5mm jack, all other audio goes out just fine.

S-pen and palm rejection

Great ROM! Thank you!!

I have a question about the S-pen. When I use an app to write notes, for example Squid, Write!, Evernote, I have a problem with the S-pen.

When I write while touching the screen with my hand, the writing seems to be recognized, but then disappears. When I use the pen without touching the screen all is ok. This was not the case on stock. I could use squid and touch the screen while using the S-pen. I tried various options in the setup of the different programs, but it seems palm rejection doesn't work correctly for me.

Is there a way to fix this? Some setting I missed? :confused:

---------- Post added at 01:48 ---------- Previous post was at 01:25 ----------

Oh, it seems this has been a problem since lineage OS 13. I haven't found any report of it working correctly later. Very sad. I like using the pen, even without the Samsung apps.

---------- Post added at 02:15 ---------- Previous post was at 01:48 ----------

OK, final reply. There is an app in the store called CM S Pen Add-on(ROOT). It can disable touch input when pen is detached. This seems to solve the problem - handwriting works again!!! :D

Of course, you have to use the pen for input, and can't use finger for anything....

Oh, and one more thing. CM SPen Add-on doesn't work after reboot. I have to delete all data for the app, and then it works again.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Stolto:
S-Pen problems are common on aosp roms, because the dedicated apps only work on stock TouchWiz. The closest you'll get to stock functions is a paid app I can't link here. The name is spencommand. But hasn't been updated for a year or so. It still works most of the time with pie, but I can only guess what Android 10 will do to it. So I wouldn't recommend to get it atm.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ghostwheel:
Thanks. The problem isn't the lack of apps. Even the paid S-pen apps, S-pen command and GMD S-pen control don't solve this problem. It has to do with palm rejection not implemented correctly currently. The only thing that works for me is disabling touch completely with CM SPen Add-on.

Been trying to encrypt it but it ends up in boot loop like some users stated in previous posts.

Any ideas, I didn't have installed magisk. I have tried to install Havoc after clean OOS install, so it could not be due having root but it still gave start loop after trying to encrypt, it would not go past Note 4 screen at start and it would reboot.

Also tried with dirty install using LineageOS 16 to encrypt and then installing Havoc on top, Havoc loads but when it asks to write pin to unlock encrypted device and you try to input any password it ends up restarting after trying to check if the password is correct.

So any ideas, because this rom is very good but is useless if I cannot have any type of encryption. LineageOS 16 encryption works by the way, so why is this happening on Havoc?

Still the best overall solution out there. But I'd not suggest buying it at this point. Android 10 is in the pipe and spencommand hasn't been updated for About a year now. Dev states it's compatible to oreo. My experience: also works for pie (with very rare random crashes), but Noone (but the Dev maybe^^) can say if it will still be functional with the upcoming Android version.

Just sayin.. ;)
