tested 4G yesterday when i was at ioi city mall. (celcom 38)

Still an unacceptable speed for 4G. Although 3G is enough for me, they have no reason to cap their 4G speed..

Saved by the SP. Was taking a picture after changing my tires. Fell face first on the tar road.

My spigen capsule and my remax tempered glass saved the day!

hallelujah rclxms.gif the remax is 0.2+ mm thick? how much was the halo effect on your note 4?

Wah lucky you. Definitely want to buy the SP. How much? Just change my screen yesterday due to cracks. RM700 gone.

shocking.gif Not under warranty meh? oh ya since its self-accident i suppose they should charge additional cost.. Now im worrying on my 0.15 mm glass. Although its a nice tp with no halo but it may not be thick enough to protect the front screen

If self accident no warranty. Have to pay for a new screen. If repair with Samsung the current warranty will resume. Mine still have 5 months left. Buy a thicker SP better. If fall at tar road like me, bye bye money.

It seems to me that the screen on note 4 isn't as tough as they claimed to be. I know my Xperia Z(currently used by my mom) dropped many times from front on hard surfaces and so far only one corner side dented.The screen is still doing fine with just a normal screen protector on.

do you guys set your wifi on all the time? i find that if i on my wifi on all time,battery drains alot especially overnight so now i set it to auto off when in sleep mode.Its quite annoying cause i won't be notified of my latest emails/msgs. Also I wish the power saving mode has option where you can exclude apps from sleeping like the stamina mode on Xperias. sleep.gif

So far no Android phones I had used ( HTC, Samsung, LG, Huawei etc) can ever match Sony outstanding stamina mode. It is so well executed you don't need any further apps/or tweaks to get minimal battery brain. When I was using the Xperia z and present XZU, on stamina mode battery drain overnight with 3G on 24/7 drain hardly goes beyond 2%
I always switch off WiFi when I go to bed as my home WiFi is switched off. But I always has my 3G actively on 24/7 and I used apps/tweaks to reduce battery drain on standby mode
*
THIS EXACTLY YES.Reading this statement from a senior like you is golden and also confirmed that I was not biased towards sony phone when i really thought the stamina mode on Sony literally stands out among all others. It's really interesting that each brand has their signature strong point though biggrin.gif The power saving mode on samsung is pretty much useless as basically it just let you shut off internet on your phone completely without tweaks.

Right now im using an app called Battery DU saver (paid version). It looks good so far hopefully the positive reviews weren't overhyped.

How about iloome SP? Any reviews about it. Want to buy directly from its website. Have promotion right now.

Perhaps this review video by Flossy would sum it up for you.
Its of the Screenmate Tempered Glass Light version for Note 4.

Just saw the Flex version ran out of stock at their website so that's all they have. Flossys review sound solid about it.
Might get one too as a backup laugh.gif

Edit : Aiya, type type but forgot to post link. Here tongue.gif

Actually if you try to use the spen more often and get a hang of it, you might find it really handy. Especially when browsing site and taking notes. I like how I can prevent fingerprint smudges on screen when using the s pen

i saw someone selling s6 edge new condition as cheap as rm2400....dropped so low..

Those edges drop on tar road sure kaboom since there's no way they can come up with curved glass protection. Correct me if I'm wrong laugh.gif

banyak proof laugh.gif but are they really necessary for sd cards? all i know is that mine stays in the phone most of the times.

I don't think its wise to use Note 4 naked or any smartphones in a long run especially with a removable back cover. Unless you're a very extra careful person but then accidents happen.. A slim case wouldn't hurt much happy.gif

I second this. Landscape mode do make things a lot better for viewing and if change back to portrait mode, it stays that way too. Just gotta switch to landscade mode whenever you see glitches on portrait mode and theyll be fixed. smile.gif

Lol it's ok. I get it a lot. My first real name is actually a boys name anyway. I find it funny though. Minions aren't barbies. Its perfectly fine for a male of any age to enjoy their wackyness and cuteness. Unless you have too much of an ego to show your sensitive side or you simply just dislike things like that. laugh.gif

Yeah, i tried that mode but it failed cause of my distance i guess. I tried to focus on Dave and it didn't work out. I think it has to do with the object being that close with you to use it effectively. Nice shot btw, makes me hungry already. .

oooo i just rooted my note 4. Its really a simple process. Love the fact that i can greenify more apps now in the donation version however i don't feel safe greenifying all of them especially those service,security,knox thing. I tried to greenify weather but it kept telling me failed sweat.gif

Next im going to try this Leandroid together with greenify and observe how battery goes. It's claimed lighter than DS battery saver and received many great reviews it seems.

*site note, I haven't root my note 4
almost 6 months already laugh.gif

I like leandroid simple interface. its all in one page. No bullshts like the battery DU i was using before. Too fancy and heavy consumer. Leandroid lets you off data,bluetooth,gps and wifi when screen is off(timing option) also what time to restore them back. As for the efficiency, will tell again after a few days of use tongue.gif

Not easy to find nice qhd wallpaper indeed. My source were mostly from internet. Just search quad hd wallpapers then check out the top sites of the result tongue.gif

I got my recent one from a qhd wallpaper site that is meant for LG G3. Same resolution as Note 4 so i checked it out and fell in love with this one in my search. It has that out of the world feel to it

Go to XDA Note 4 Original Android development thread n look for Chain fire root file
Download Odin ( go Google for it)  in your windows PC
Off phone n go into download mode ( home+vol down+power button simultaneously ) n connect to PC. Launch Odin n select the extracted chain fire root file in tar format n just select as PDA. Leave everything else intact. Just press start n viola within 30 sec your phone rooted. Easiest n fastest method
Another way is use Odin to flash Cwm recovery ( in tar format) . Than boot into CWM recovery ( volup+power +home button simultaneously ) n select supersu zip
All these files easily found in XDA
You can use these files on both kit kat n lollipop.

Exactly as simple as what the senior taught. It may seem complex to you probably because you are not familiar with the rooting tools. You need to download two things before go on the rooting process. Ok perhaps i put it this way for you to understand easily.

[b]Example : Our phones power source comes from its battery.If the battery ran out of juice,what do we need? The charger.

In this rooting situation, Odin is the charger so you need to download it first. You can download the latest version here
http://odindownload.com/

I recommend going for the stable version and not the beta ones. I'm using the 3.10 version. After downloading the Zip file, unzip it and open the exe.

Next step, now we have the charger, we need the charging cable. Not just any cable but the right cable especially if want to use the fast charging option. In this rooting case, the n910c file is the cable. That's the 2nd thing you need to download.

Direct link here
https://download.chainfire.eu/559/CF-Root/C...exx-smn910c.zip

After you done downloading that,go back to odin.exe,click the button that says 'PDA/AP' and look for the file that you just downloaded. Click the one titled : CF-Auto-Root-trelte-treltexx-smn910c.tar.md5 (in the 2nd Zip file that you downloaded)

Actually they already included the Odin for you in that zip file.It's version 3.07. That will work well also so you can choose to skip the step of downloading the Odin since the n910c zip file includes the charger(Odin) already.

After you have the file appeared under the PDA/AP, switch off your note 4,press vol down+home button+power button at the same time and it will boot into download mode, proceed to continue then connect your note 4 to your pc, on the Odin, press start and it will begin the process. Wait for the success status. If nothing happens, try reconnect the phone. If success d,it will auto reboot and your phone is rooted!

Well i hope my guide won't be too confusing for you laugh.gif you can also refer back to Mr.Benny instruction once you have the odin and the tar md5 file ready ( the charger and the cable ) tongue.gif
