i did exactly what you said benny. fully cleanup and uninstalled root via supersu. still can't OTA update. sad.gif

Does your Settings/About phone/Status /device status - show official or custom ?
It should showed official
Anyway OTA updates are released progressively. It doesn't necessarily mean A gets it, B or C will get it same time. Be patient and keep on trying
Sammobile I last checked has not even updated the latest firmware yet in its site, and still showing BOC3 as latest!!

Or you still had custom recovery installed ?

Xposed mod now working on lollipop. Just tested on friend's Note 4
Only tested with mods Amplify, Boot Manager, Greenify Pro, DS Battery saver
Firmware ( whether custom or stock ) must be deodexed

I had never like to use KIES for anything ..I had often said is the WORST sync n update software amongst all the various other phones I had used
Seems the team behind it had never improved
Samsung should completely change the whole team
The software is simply unreliable n it gets disrupted processing often midway. You really need luck to have a successful use of it

uncle benny, how to deodex our stock rom?
*
Is a tedious process n plenty guides in the web eg
https://technologic101.wordpress.com/2012/0...ck-android-rom/

Easiest just flash any stock rom that is already deodex n can find such in forum XDA. You need custom recovery installed to flash such roms

Guys, any good phablet (> 5.5 inch screen) ?
Of course except Note 4. Note 4 has been great while i'm using, however i'm finding a cheaper phablet for my brother. His Asus Zenfone 6 dropped into water and certified dead.

Budget it's max rm1.5k,
He's doesn't play games. Just facebook, whatsapp and read articles on his phones. Hence need big screen
I saw samsung has Mega 2. Is this phone good?
*
LG G Pro2 a 6 incher for rm1.2k or Mate7 16gb for rm1.5 k.

Everyone here is confirm waze is working? Bcoz my waze is remain same even after my phone updated...
*
According to my friend, Waze is working fine on firmware B0E1
He needed to delete cache and data at phone settings/application manager/waze and start all over again. He had restored the app and its data from his Titanium Backup

Some more feedbacks from him on xposed mod: working well too on BOE1
- intelli3G is working very well with xposed mod too. Wannam xposed app only certain features working. He had joined Google+ group for power nap app and said seems quite good too. You can only download the app from the group provided link as still in developmental stage. The link goes to playstore but I was unable to find it independently. This app performs similarly to the famed Stamina mode of Xperia series.

As always said by me, Sony stamina mode is unsurpassed and is best built in power savings mode amongst all the phones I had used. Other phone power savings mode is way behind it. When I was using it ( without root) on standby up to 7-8 hours with 3G/LTE on, battery drain hardly goes beyond 1%

Guys,

when using waze, since day one whether on kitkat or lollipop, when ever i pass thru a flyover or stuck in traffic jam under flyover, my gps signal will be lost and waze will stop moving.  It will only get back the gps signal after a while when there is nothing obstructing overhead.  Is it like that or there is problem to my note 4? I felt that it was harder to get back my gps signal after upgrading to lollipop BOC3

Looks like is hardware issue. I suggest you send in service center to check

I hope swap my Nexus 6 for Note 4 worth it..

There is nothing great about Nexus6 except for its faster update n ability to flash many rom n kernel. Overall I would rate Note4 a better phone in every aspect except less variety in roms only

but the spec almost same.. maybe most apps still not optimizing for 64bit?
hopefully so..

Specs doesn't tell anything. Ask any user who had used both n 9/10 maybe 9.9/10 will say Note4 is a better choice except it cannot match firmware flashing n quick updates vs N6
Camera is way way above N6 in every aspect.

hmm.. I still value latest update n various custom rom to flash more.. but maybe I'm getting old.. tired of flasing.. note4 got fingerprint sensor for unlocking like s6 right? got doubletap2wake?
any source about snapdragon805 on note4 better than nexus6?
*
Fingerprint scanning is hopeless in Note4. Ip6+ n Mate7 ( best) is better. S6 edge has improved but still behind ip n mate7.
No doubletap to wake . SD based on web reviews is worse than Exynos. However my son SD Note4 he is happy as he casual user only. He doesn't even bother to update firmware.
If you like flashing stick to N6. There are many custom roms for Note4 but mostly touchwiz based ( so that all spen features remained). No AOSP n I remember only one variant of CM11 or CM12? You can check this at XDA site

I use app knockr to wake-up display on all my Androids that doesn't support double tap to wake
When you first launch the app choose skip n go directly to select double tap to wake
Many other features which I never bother to test as I don't need those
And I don't think it uses up significant battery. It definitely works well on Note4.
