Special thanks for this awesome work!

I have tested on my Note 4 with model no.SM-N916K. This is my first time to test a custom Rom! I've tried to install your latest Rom Lineage 18.1 { (tre3calteskt) released on 06/30/2023} but it was stuck on Lineage logo screen (like it is loading for infinite time, I waited here for more than 20 minutes) after installation! Is it installation bug or Is there any other tricks for installation or Am I missing any process? As because I am so curious to test this latest release! Please suggest me if there are any chances to install it!

However, Later I did successful installation of earlier released Rom Lineage 18.1 (dated on 12/31/2022) and some issues I have with this Rom, which I would like to share with you for better suggestion to resolve these:-

>It feels graphics are slower; not much smooth!

>I installed the Island app and created the "Work Profile" (Second/Parallel space) for the using purpose of multi-account at the same device in different apps like twitter, instagram, facebook etc. but under the "work profile" there is no internet connection while I am trying to use the Proxy client/Tunnel app like SocksDroid, Proxifier, Tun2Socks etc. Only "Tun2TAP for android" app works as proxy client under "Main Profile" but internet browsing experience is not good enough to me. It's really a bad luck for me! Only for this special feature I just switched to this custom Rom. Could you please help me by solving this issue?

>Some of apps do not start up after successful installation from google play store! (Here to be noted that I installed "open_gapps-arm-11.0-pico-20220215" and "Magisk v25.2" through TWRP Recovery v3.7.0_9 after the Rom Lineage 18.1 installation process!)

>Sometimes an error message shows "setting stop responding" during I try to force stop of any application!

>Device heats up quickly and Battery drains quickly! What will be the ideal setting to minimize these issues?

Sorry for my poor English! Hope I will get better solution on above issues and your feedback will be highly appreciated, thanks again, you are really great Man!

In which Lineage Rom (pointing to the released date) did you use for this Lawnchair launcher? Could you please share its download link for the exact Rom version you are using? Thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] LegendOcta:
I was using the rom from 12/31/2022, it has sluggish graphics so I set the resolution to 720x1280 or something via adb shell wm size 720x1280.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] MAOQ:

No, it's a nightmare.)

Installed and checked, took it down.

The native file manager, MiXplorer and similar programs are so stupid that it is impossible to use the program.

It's as if there is no caching in the firmware.

For example, you open MiXplorer and a folder with a lot of apk files. Then the apk icons are not visible, only a couple of them.)

Searching for files takes so long that you could drink a cup of coffee during this period. :)

So this is Android 11 and I don’t understand what kind of stupid implementation it is.

So, I found a lot of things that were not pleasant, but I don’t remember right now.

I returned to my old, good, reliable and everyday eRobot v1.2

I've been using it for over 5 years now and I'm happy with it.

Well, of course, it may be old due to the version of Android, it slows down a little over time, but it works perfectly, “confidently”. :-)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] John-Carter:
Thank you so much for your rely and tried to set above resolution to get better graphics with smoothness but no luck! now display size is too much bigger (font & icons; it's not normal for regular use)! Could you tell me what "wm density ---" did you set with this res (wm size 720x1280)? Also I am curious to know about the version no. (or any ref link) you used for Lawnchair launcher to check with my devices!
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] LegendOcta:
Set resolution back to default, go to developer settings and find the 'smallest width' option, click it to open popup and run adb wm command while the popup is open, and then click OK after screen size changed. That would do. (Note that I didn't find this; I don't remember well but I think I read this from this thread)

I don't remember the exact lawnchair version, I got one of the android 12 ui styled ones from lawnchair.app. Now I'm using good old ADW launcher instead, highly recommended as its really customizable..

Hi, friend. Has anyone tried installing the firmware on a Samsung note 4 sm-n916s Korea smartphone?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] V0latyle:
Hello @Alex-70 and welcome to XDA. Prior to your next posting we ask that you review the Forum Rules, with special attention paid to Rule 4:

As a courtesy, I have translated your post.

Additionally, please do not post the same thing more than once:
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] LegendOcta:
Yes I have, it works but use Dec 2022 version instead of latest in the meantime as the latest one bootloops.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] ananjaser1211:
SM-N916S is supported but few users reported that it does not boot, i am not sure why, i was unable to debug it yet. if you wish to try download the builds labeled with "tre3calteskt"

if it indeed does not boot, i would need someone on N916 to grab last_kmsg and `/data/tombstones` to debug further why it fails

for everyone else, the latest test builds are here https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1pHt-aC1RvFBuOjs6xRZ5iRLGK830dKAU?usp=drive_link

it has the WiFi and GPS fixes mentioned before / in the github issue page

i dont really see any n916 specific changes that would break booting, but i also been too occupied to follow up with the note 4, so apologies for that, i have saved some notes from members who sent me logs and information but i coul;d not see any weird behaviour in N916 Builds

give the ones listed above a try and let me know if it boots or not.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] John-Carter:
Dear @ananjaser1211

Could you please check my issues as mentioned above page? Specially I want your help to resolve the Bug (if any) for using of Island app (for creating the second space on a device) and Proxy client app in "work profile" and "Main Profile". I could not make working of any proxy client app (SocksDroid, Proxifier, Tun2Socks etc.). Expecting your feedback here!
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] LegendOcta:
I'm pretty occupied by works and exam recently, I'll try fetching the logs and debugging properly in two weeks or so after resolving real life issues lol.

Sorry for keep delaying, and thanks again for these Note 4 developments. :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] ananjaser1211:
I will look into it asap, i cant say i have ever tried to fix work profile on AOSP, but perhaps it follows similar principals as other samsung ROMs i worked on, i will debug it over the week and let you know if i find anything relevant or a fix. i am not familiar with proxy clients either but i will take a look.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] John-Carter:
I am here again to you with great hope! Of course I believe that you will find a better solution during the debug over it. Even these features (creating of second space and use of proxy client) worked good in my old stock Rom Android 6 with some limitation (N916KKTU2DPK2_N916KKTC2DPK2_N916KKTU1DPK2_HOME)! So, I was looking for the latest Android Custom Rom for better performance with more features and finally stopped here! Above 2 features are very common and perform very well in the latest Android version, 9-12 so on (on different Samsung Models and other phone devices as per my using experience).

Подскажите, где декабрьская 2022 прошивка для моего 916?

Tell me where is the December 2022 firmware "tre3calteskt", for my 916?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Alex-70:
Where is December 2022?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] hojjat61:
It is absolutely true, probably because of this cache, it causes crashes in many software and games. I hope it will be investigated and solved. I am currently using the Refined Nougat N7FE Port 6.0 ROM, which does not have any specific bugs.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] LegendOcta:
It's on first post and n916 is tre3calteskt.

For convenience I'm pasting the links for direct download. Get it from https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=4279422670115706940 or https://sourceforge.net/projects/ga...20221230-UNOFFICIAL-tre3calteskt.zip/download

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Alex-70:
Samsung's screensaver and nothing else happens. rolled back to the old firmware for now. Works. what could it be?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] MAOQ:
Understood. Well, Refined Nougat N7FE Port 6.0 is a good firmware and especially 7.1.1, but there were very serious jambs. The most important thing is that a notification like com.phone.samsung often appears and this is almost not resolved at that time. Plus the sound played strangely and there was an echo when communicating, when making a call. Right now I’m using eRobot v1.2 and it works many times faster.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] kos25k:
Hello to all! Can someone tell me if this rom is stable with good battery? I want to flash it on my friend's phone and she unfortunately can't afford money to buy a new phone..
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Alex-70:
Я много ваших прошивок установил, не загружается. При установке на смартфон в тексте много красных букв. Ошибки. В конце установки логотип Самсунг и больше ничего не происходит. Он не загружается. Что может быть?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] MAOQ:
Energy savings naturally depend on the quality of the battery. I recently bought a Chinese crap and it doesn't hold a charge very well.

If the battery is normal, it would not work badly (I think). But firmware 18.1 is not suitable for me. It turned out to be very buggy.

If you install PixelEperience on Android 9, then yes, this firmware is better than 18.1 and the battery life is not bad.

There were a couple of jambs and it will be useful for everyday life. It turned out beautifully.

But, I still returned to eRobot v1.2, I don’t want to bother with fixing shortcomings in other firmware. Yes, the firmware is old, a little slower, but it works 95% reliably and stably.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] kos25k:
Thanks!But sorry i didn't determine it,she wants a rom without google play services at all...
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] LegendOcta:
Samsung's screensaver? You mean it's stuck on the 'Galaxy Note 4 S-LTE' logo on startup?

Can you explain what exactly you did? There can be many factors to this, such as not having the latest bootloader installed.

Ensure you have the latest stock firmware, then install TWRP from https://github.com/universal5433/android_device_samsung_tre3calteskt/releases/tag/TWRP-3.7.0_9 using Odin, enter TWRP using key combination volume up + home + power while powered off and go to wipe, advanced wipe and wipe data/cache/dalvik cache/system/internal storage, now connect phone to PC and copy that lineageos zip and install from install menu.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] ananjaser1211:
This means you are either using the wrong version of TWRP for your device, or you have an old version of TWRP, or the last is you have the correct version but flashing the wrong zip, here is description of each version

N910C/H = Flash "treltexx"

N910U = Flash "trhpltexx"

N910S/L/K = Flash "trelteskt"

N915S/L/K = Flash "tbelteskt"

N916S/L/K = Flash "tre3calteskt"

Both ROM and TWRP need to be the same.

Do wait however as it seems that the N916S/L/K (tre3calteskt) only work on 2022/12/30 release (https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=4279422670115706940) and does not work on 2023+

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Alex-70:
Is it possible to install GApps-for-Android now, without reinstalling?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] LegendOcta:
If you need GApps you need to wipe data (factory reset) after install. Get your gapps from opengapps.org and pick pico or nano. However a better way is to use without installing GApps, as there are privacy concerns as well as performance and stability issues caused by it.

BTW I guess you're not used to posting on XDA. I recommend you quote multiple posts you want to reply to in one message instead of repeating the same message to every comment you want to reply.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] hojjat61:
It crashes while playing or viewing Instagram stories, please check
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] ananjaser1211:
Please try to log the crash using the guide at the bottom of this page https://github.com/universal5433/android_device_samsung_trelte-common

i am aware of the crashes, i have not been able to recreate them on my device because i just dont use it as often as a daily driver would, take a log-ball , log-e and try to make it crash as many times as possible, finally attach the folder /data/tombstones

and then i might be able to find out why it crashes, otherwise i am left to waiting until it one day decides to crash on my phone while im testing it, which has not happened yet.

Regarding N916 And 2023 builds, thanks to @MartinLGore we managed to isolate the issue, its due to the phone switching to selinux enforcing (god knows why) , the problem comes from the init binary, will work with him to figure out a fix and re-send test builds soon.

@ananjaser1211 on N916K with the test build, I am not sure if it is only me or is it a new bug, I have an issue with the Contacts and also Google Contacts, they are not reflected on any of the Contacts apps, though I have allowed all permissions also google sync. I have imported to Sim via file but next day it was reset to zero contacts.

Hello @ananjaser1211 and everyone, wanted to say thank you very much for this ROM and support all this time.

just encountered an issue recently

am on 910c, followed this tutorial for flashing LineageOS

flashed lineage-17.1-20210630-UNOFFICIAL-treltexx.zip

used TWRP-3.3.1-treltexx-20190610.tar

and used Magisk-v24.1.zip

phone worked smoothly, everything worked well, include voice volume etc for 1 year.

I always put low performance due to weak battery - last 1 day for me, which is fine. (only whatsapp and gmail)

recently however i noted that the phone has a blue screen as below which appears. previously i noted this screen when i used the magnetic cover which locks the phone (the rectangle was yellow at the time, now blue)

the magnetic cover was too old and i got rid of it.

issue is this blue screen/ blue lock screen is becoming more common.

I cannot get out of it despite clicking unlock button. not sure whether it is related to deep sleep, bcoz this happens only after phone has not been used for a while

i have no lock/pin on this phone and dont use fingerprint

currently i need to remove battery and put back again to restart phone and use it

could you/anyone kindly advise?

Hello,I am for the first time in this forum ,and maybe I am the only man who uses this Galaxy Note4 as the only phone in 2023.

I had a MiUi8 firmware on my phone .However, the 6th android is not actual now.That is why I am searching for a new firmware that has no critical bugs.

The June build of the firmware is much better than Oreo,Pie and Android Q roms for our phone ,but I should like to know why on this rom the phone gets very hot ? For ,exemple on CyanogenMod 13 ,MiUi8 or Lineage 14.1 the phone doesn't get hot..

Also I should like to know ,if there will be Android 12 for our phone...

Thanks in advance !!!!!
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] LegendOcta:
Hi. Yeah, MIUI 8 isn't really usable nowadays due to apps not supporting it..

The phone gets very hot because, well, android 11 is simply too much for our phone.. Lowering your screen resolution can help slightly but it is still laggy and slow.

If you'd like to lower screen resolution:

1. Open developer settings under system (Tap build number multiple times from about phone to enable) and remember the number for option "Smallest width"

2. Install a terminal emulator app (or termux) and type su to gain root (or alternatively connect to pc and use adb shell)

3. type 'wm size 1080x1920' or 'wm size 900x1600' or 'wm size 720x1280' (without quotes)

4. things will look really big, now go to developer mode again and change smallest width value to the previous one

Also, not installing GApps help significantly. You can use Aurora Store to download apps from Google Play Store. as far as i know the latest build includes microG which reimplements functions of gapps so apps don't break (functions like notification) as well..
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Star Spangled Banner:
Ok ,thank you for your help!

Who knows, will there be a custom rom based on Android 12 for our device ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] juandante:
You should use apps like AirFrozen also to freeze apps, it helps a lot to gain a lot of performance

Old CPUs at least the SD805 are very bad for handling background apps, even if the CPU throttle a lot. I would think it's because of the lack of big-little configuration but I don't have any proof.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] Star Spangled Banner:
