QUOTE(negisf @ May 5 2015, 09:25 AM) OK. Let me try. Thanks for the reply. Another thing. Under motion n gestures, there is a Direct Call features. But I try bringing the phone to my ear, it doest call. Anyone can use this gestures on lollipop? I am no longer using Note 4 but on S6 Edge with lollipop this feature works very well. Just select your contact and hold phone to ear and it will auto call . It should theoretically works too on Note 4. If other users can get it to work and not yours , probably time to send in to check the phone sensors ??

Did you select it as an option in your settings/motion n gestures ? You swipe by slightly touching the display n hold your palms up vertically as in karate chop style n slightly drag across display

Looks like Samsung did a poor lollipop upgrade for Note4. All your reported problems I do not face at all on S6 Edge lollipop. Looks like you guys need to wait for further updates to solve those problems. Probably a rush job. Try feedback onto Samsung FB page such issues.

QUOTE(arrowhead7372 @ May 5 2015, 08:11 PM) Nexus 6 is on my radar man. Nexus is real snappy but mahal also. Any idea how the camera and batt life is like? Note4 camera n battery life I find is better than N6 Note4 overall performance is better too Only plus of N6 is if you like to flash the various kernels or ROMs

QUOTE(kopykopy @ May 7 2015, 01:44 PM) Ok, so i took the dive and bought the Note 4 last week. Black color. First time using a Samsung. Love the Screen Size, S Pen, Multi Window and the AMOLED Display. Using a minimalist thin back cover, Nillkin Frosted Shield Case. Took out the Tempered Glass Protector sold by the phone Vendor cause it has the halo effect which is a no-no to me. Do not like the TouchWiz Homescreen at all. So i installed Nova Launcher which is great now. Except that one big dissappointment ie. Using Nova Launcher does not allow me to pin an open Action Memo on homescreen. That's a good S Pen function down the drain. Overall, it is a great phone and has taken over my Oneplus One as my daily driver. I bet the Note 5 will be even better but will cost an arm and a leg. Edit: Bettery last me from wakeup at 7am to bedtime 10pm with about 20% to spare. Considered not bad but cannot use it for 2 days without charging. My 1+1 can use for 2 days. I would rate Note4 battery life is better than One+One I had used both before. Just give it a few more days after several baytery charges

I would recommend Huawei n LG as good alternatives to Samsung phones. Problem with this 2 brands is slow firmware updates n virtually lacking in custom roms But than their firmware very stable n can say is bug free that you don't even think of updating it Had tried before HW Mate 6.1, X1 n Mate7 ( current favorite). LG - G Optimus Pro n G Pro2.

QUOTE(Jeffreynsx @ May 8 2015, 01:17 PM) Hi Team, need to ask someone's who using Whatapps. If the free trial period had reached, will the Whatapps team deducted the credit directly from our prepaid sim card? How is the procedure, I'm interested to know more. Thank you. So far WA always auto extend usage period another year without charge. I don't think any charges will b on your simcard credit but through separate payment through credit card or PayPal. I had yet to hear anyone being charge yet

QUOTE(arrowhead7372 @ May 10 2015, 02:12 PM) If i send to sc they will say digi problem. If i call digi they will say n4 known issue. How liddis? I have made many complaints to digi abt dropped calls and unable to load webpages even when its h+. Even with screen shot. Also nothing done. They ask me to give more info like who i call, where i called, what time, etc. All info given also nothing done. Did you try another telco ( prepaid card) to isolate is Digi problem Without testing, you are only guessing A prepaid cost less than RM 10 and you can test Celcom, Maxis if you so wish If all these other telcos same problem than is probably phone sim module issue

QUOTE(arrowhead7372 @ May 10 2015, 02:46 PM) Belum actually. I wanted to buy the celcom the other day but suddenly cancel plan last minute. I guess i should. But abit hassle, means i need to bring 2 phones out...  Testing other telcos is still your best solution to identify whether is phone hardware issue Is not that inconvenient if it solves your headache of identifying source of problem

QUOTE(arrowhead7372 @ May 11 2015, 03:00 PM) yeah. but only concern is all the contacts and whatsapp etc. means i gotta bring2 phones out. 1 is the note 4 with the other telco, while another phone with ur current sim so u dun miss any calls/msgs.  No need so troublesome. You change the card and within 5 mins or less is activated already Unless you are such a busy guy with call/SMS/whatsapp continuously coming in every minute you cannot afford phone be idle at all Just continue use your digi card n only swap over once you got the other telco card.

QUOTE(rickk @ May 12 2015, 12:48 AM) mind to share your battery table? Or else we don't know what caused it and sifuss here cannot advise you. Haha! Do you using fb apps? I found it very consuming on my n4. always the top after screen.  Google app such as Facebook n Chrome I rarely used as renown battery drainers For browser I always use Boat or Dolphin n replace Facebook with Fact or Friendcaster Pro. Till today Google had failed in these 2 app...these based on my experience using Android past 8 years n better 3rd party options available

QUOTE(happyshirt @ May 12 2015, 08:04 AM) Ask you sifus. For my information. is My Backup Pro supposed to back up the information/data for apps like Msecure and Settings profile as well? I had problems with my note 3 and then helium stopped working so i had to go back to Mybackup Pro when i did the factory refresh. and taa-daaa tak ada any infor kosong. boo hoo hoo hoo. Titanium Backup was also realible so i guess back to rooting. or maybe see if helium works after the refresh. Data backup for mybackup only for rooted phones Only app apk is backup for non rooted n not sure whether can even backup for paid app Helium backup can backup data but limited if phone not rooted Best solution is to have phone rooted n use any of these app without any issue This post has been edited by benny888: May 12 2015, 08:48 AM

Note4 camera is very good n to date only S6 Edge is better than it. I would even rate it better than ip6+. I was using both of these phones at same time previously. If any user had poor camera shots probably is hardware issue already. Just send in to check n don't accept such problems

QUOTE(happyshirt @ May 12 2015, 05:10 PM) Yikes!! I dont believe this. I'm trying to Root using chainfire instructions on the 1st page and nothing is happening. This is supposed to be fullproof. What happened? I'm getting this in Odin: OSM> Enter CS for MD5.. <OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable.. <OSM> Please wait.. <OSM> CF-Auto-Root-trelte-treltexx-smn910c.tar.md5 is valid. <OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully.. <OSM> Leave CS.. <OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0) Try with another USB port If still failed, flash instead the CWM recovery file. Than boot into recovery mode ( volup+home+power button simultaneously) and select flash supersu.zip file That was what I did this morning for my friend Note 4 ( just came in today) I flashed for him the Lollipop firmware first before rooting it using Odin too
