For the forumer "ravenlost" who posted unable to factory reset : Try boot to RECOVERY mode : press simultaneously VolUP+Home+Power button and select it from recovery menu. It will take several second before you can see this menu. Before that you will see Android mascot circling

Anyone knows y I can't uninstall the stock whatsapp tats installed in the phone? Wanna install whatsapp plus

You can uninstall it using Titanium Backup . Phone must be rooted
I understand you need whatsapp itself to be installed first before you can run whatsapp+ ?? So why the need to even uninstall it ?

@benny888 : Can I verify if it's having the issue with writing to Ext SD like Note 2 w/ 4.4.2 ?  I'm really tempted to upgrade from SGN2 to SGN4 but the Write to SD is a very big issue for me.  Many thanks in advance for any info.
*
ALL Kitkat phones faced this problem due to Google restrictions on writability onto ext SDcard. I had used so many different type of KitKat phones and each has its own set of peculiarities. But is a easy problem to solve. Root the phone installed nextappSDfix and you can freely write anything onto the external Sdcard
I cannot answer you whether the default file manager app has any issues writing onto ext SDcard as I rooted the phone within an hour of purchase. I installed nextappSDfix after root

@benny888 : Thanks. In that case I'll defer my purchase to later date.

Later date will not change this fact that this is a Google problem. Unless Google remove it in Android L

Try : http://www.wazzapmigrator.com/

Transfer whatsapp from Android to iPhone much easier. I bought the BackupTrans software for about US$30

Waa the url got thumbnail now on lyn thread. Is this a note4 feature or lyn forum feature? Didnt see this before hmm.gif

New feature . And I see it even on my iphone 6+ n iMac

Erm coming from iOS background it seems a lil complicated. And need to pay for this app right?
*
The Android app cost only rm 9.

I find the LHS multitab is not sensitive enough. Quite difficult to launch it right ..at times I need to tap it more than one time.

Does Sony Xperia have something similar to Knox ?  Does rooting potentially cause warranty to be voided like rooting S5 or Note 4 ?
*
Except for One+One n Oppo all rooting on any other Android will void warranty. Unrooting Sony is even more tedious process.

I had been declared a Samseng fag in ip6 thread just because I mentioned this Note4 UI is smoother
That forumer ask me to go back to my cave
And here he said he want to buy Note4
Some guys simply unbearable

Nice to know. As usual Samsung will take a darn long time to issue an update due to its numerous variants in Note4. Another burdening factor is Touch wiz recoding

Samsung still lose to LG and Apple . Both got a phone that can bends , G Flex and iPhone 6flex  whistling.gif

My personal experience LG makes good products. LG G Pad 8.3 I rate best Android tablet beating Nexus7. LG G Pro2 best 6 inch phablet vs HTC One Max, XZU, Mate6.1
LG Optimus Pro great Note2 beater except it lacks stylus
It's firmware much less bloat ware vs Samsung. Only major disadvantage is not popular with rom cooks.

Is this in kopitiam or in proper forum? As to my observation, LYN /k/ should not be taken seriously cos most of it just trolling. The word Samsengfag itself should give it away.

Played with the Note 4. Kinda disappointed with the screen. Or something wrong with me, coz i cannot see the same Tab S saturated screen on it.

As mentioned before I don't quite like Samsung Amoled display. I find oppo find7 2k display n it's more natural colors better. Even iPhone 6+ display at 1080p looks better too. I find Amoled colors over saturated.

128GB microSD can right?

Yes. I am now using SanDisk class 10 128gb with it

Odin v3.09 still can use to root and flash rom for note 4?

I use an old version 3.07 to flash Chainfire root file. Newer version should work if not better

whats the lowest expected price for malaysia for note 4?
*
So far I noted is rm2249 from superbuy.com but delivery probably early Nov. I had bought 3 x from them before n all purchases smoothly executed. One time they refund me as they fail to deliver a black Note 8.0 n instead offer a white unit. Got my refund the next day after I declined their offer

I saw there are 30mb/s, 45mb/s, 80mb/s for sandisk. Do you think the speed will make that much difference for note 4?
*
Those are read speeds. I had no experience on those 45, 80 mb/s cards. My 128gb is rated at 30 mb/s
The higher numbers means a higher reading speeds
I supposed you would be able read off the card faster but practically is it noticeable? I had no idea
Anyway I am comfortable with the present 30 mb/s rate

btw, what about the vietnam root method? both work the same?
as for cf-root, i just download the file for "thailand exynos" N910c? didnt know our note4 same as tomyamland. lol.

wanam exposed work properly? notworthy.gif

That file is correct
Xposed mod works well w greenify pro, intelli3g n android tuner. These are only 3 mods I had chosen. However shealth is unable to load thereafter. Uninstalling xposed mod does not help either
I heard too Xposed mod will disable factory reset too n no idea how true. I am not going to factory reset phone just to test this!
Never even bother to checkup the Vietnam method

Is It still more saturate than oppo find 7 display in basic mode also?  Or you just test in default adaptive display mode?
*
Basic mode slight improvement I 'd say
Oppo Find 7 on its 2k display still remains my favorite
I am not saying Superamoled is bad just feel its colors not so natural. The fact I bought the phone knewing this "weakness" shows I can still accept it
I consider this minor issue.

Maxis doesn't has LTE at my place. Celcom only in certain areas of town and unavailable at my home. Average LTE downloads 10-20 mbps only
