My understanding of game architecture is that you probably won't see one for mobile in at least another 2 years.

If you want to display a nice scene in 2k, you need the bitmaps to wrap the polygons. Larger bitmaps = more space. Look at Bard's Tale....3.5gb and it wasn't even fhd at the time.

Space is a constraint and so is the gpu framebuffer.
*
yeah most games are either upscaled from 720p or 1080p on our 2K screen. Native 2K textures android game? even just thinking about that is making my head spin....definitely not possible anytime soon, another 2 years definitely makes sense, since we will have 4K+ displays by then tongue.gif

I'm struggling with my Note4 WIFI connection. Seem like throttle down while my S3 can have a very good speed. Anyone facing this issue?
*
are you rooted? a number of rooted users are having wifi issues over at xda. For me, the wifi on this is worlds ahead of the note 3 since its a dual stream AC chip, so much better WLAN transfer rates.NOt to say that the note 3 had bad wifi though as for normal internet usage it was great enough.

UDATE:

So....it seems that the Note 4 is trying very hard to index the text INSIDE PDFs........WTF

http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-tmo...attery-t2905687

I've got lots and lots of PDFs on my sdcard. The reason is to read them. Why in the blazes does Android want to index the text INSIDE the PDF ?

For those with few PDFs, could you try deleting them from your SDCard and report back?
*
the last time i saw indexservice was when i full wiped my note 3 last year to install a custom ROM. Battery was draining fast while the phone was running hot....waited for a while and it didnt get better, so i just rebooted the phone and it was fine after that. I have A LOT of PDFs on my extSDcard so maybe its something else hmm.gif

have u tried ur spare SDcard?

EDIT: I just got an SEandroid policy update automatically pushed to my phone, along with a forced update to the flipboard briefing app and evernote....cant wait to put a nice debloated ROM like Civz ROM on the note 3...or wanamlite on the note 2 biggrin.gif

Sliding from left ro right on Google apps (Play Store and Youtube), Email app lags like hell, closing tab and changing in both Internet and Chrome app, some stuttering when changing between home screens, Facebook sometimes stutter but I like the app loading, it is so fast. I'm not trying to bash this phone but the lag is so apparent even my Note 3 does not even have the lag. The stuttering is really noticeable. And the surprising thing is the phone temp once reached 41°C. sad.gif
*
Yeah google app has some jank here n there, but I'm sure it'll get better after a number of updates. Samsung is most probably rushing to release lollipop for this phone now, so we might not have many firmware updates till that releases.

Anyone already reached 7 hrs SOT on the Note 4? Just want to check. smile.gif
*
mine usually 6.5 by 15 % or so. btw wanna ask, whenu say ur phone is 41 degrees, what app are u using to see that? Bcoz its perfectly normal for the CPU to be 41 degrees at idle. The batt temp would be about 33 degrees or less at idle. I think uncle benny is talking about his batt temp and not the cpu temp....

Via Antutu and was playing Asphalt 8. And yes battery temp. It makes my phone hot even I can feel my phone Screen is hot around it.  sad.gif

wow 41 for batt temp, I'll get heart attack if that happens to my device sweat.gif
Even during fast charging on a hot room it goes to about 37 degrees, nothing more than that. I think its a good idea to bring to a SC soon nod.gif

Actually his battery life is one of the most amazing one so far here. Why do i say that? His uptime is 35 hours!! That's crazy long.rclxub.gif Most people only get 4 hour SOT if they use their phone that long. So maybe power saving does have some use nod.gif

Up to you to use TB or otherwise. I'm just sharing an option/alternative.
*
I wonder if TB devs will actually FINALLY redesign their app for 5.0 sad.gif

I mean even Tasker which had a horrible UI before has a nice Holo UI now, and that was definitely harder to redesign while ensuring its still manageable (that app has a crazy amount of customization as you surely know already)

The only stock apps I not using is Gallery and Video as I use QuickPic and MX Player. This make double job to me...

stock video player gives me headache only...as im suing the pop up multiwindow function. So every time i click a video to play it wont be full screen. I like this function because it kinda imitates the Link Bubble app by Chris Lacy but Samsung shouldnt have put it on the video player app....

Just double tap the video will return back full screen.
Me. I always did that. Don't see different on battery.

I also change the animation setting. Check back page 30 you will seen my setting.

Double tapping pauses the video lol. Im talking about the open in multi window view function,not the other one biggrin.gif

To Note 4 user, i got 1 question. Since Note 4 display is 2k, how well does it display 720p movie? I means does it pixelated due to upscale to fit to screen?

Ask this because i mostly play movie via my phone (still using s3 now). Dl full seasons Arrow, Supenatural, Flash, etc series and watch em on my phone. Since S3 display is 720p, those movies is amazing, sharp and crips. No idea how it looks like on FHD or even 2K display. sweat.gif
*
This was one of my main concern too as i stream netflix hulu and plex heavily on my phone. Im happy to say 720p content look just fine on this screen smile.gif
Maybe if you compare it to a note 2 screen things might be ever so slightly softer on the note 4 screen,but its negligible. Dont worry about 720p content on this screen, it will look just fine. biggrin.gif

It is a bit on the soft side but anyway the video is still great on a 2K display. Watch Hulu and Netflix on my phone. Not so bad actually.  biggrin.gif

When you watch a video in hulu,its limited to high quality right?no HD quality right? Hulu actually very bad quality...but it has been bad since the note 2 days sweat.gif

Dunno why only nexus has HD sad.gif

Yep. Hulu limited to HQ only but still the picture still ok for viewing. But Netflix is the best. biggrin.gif Nexus is Google optimized, so maybe they only focus on that phone only. YouTube also 720p max on Note 4. Hmmm.
*
Yeah netflix is awesome. Long ago,it was limited to 480p 1750kbps,but now its perfect smile.gif
Sigh really hope hulu increases it...have to watch on the tv or pc/laptop to get HD on hulu...zzzz
