I am looking forward for the Bugs on Waze to be solved.

I don`t have any battery issue. Can get 4 to 5 hour SOT easily with 24 hour LTE on.

I hope Samsung unleashed the 64 bit system on Note 4 and bring Enhance Manual mode camera + RAW system.

Anyone here knows where to buy the back batter cover Gold colour. My one when i use the phone without case the gold colour faded and now looks abit not nice.

Later i provide you picture. I take my friend DSLR take clear shots and put here.

The gold colour is some sort of thin coating only. Below the coat is black where same like note 4 black when all the gold behind fade off then my phone become Gold Black Hybrid haha.

This is the picture of my Note 4 back battery cover. I circle the fade part with RED Round.

After i found out that my back cover faded off i fast fast buy a Spigen Ultra Hybrid Crystal Clear Case to protect it to prevent more fade effects.

Previously i am using my phone nakedly without any cases on.

I also ask the Samsung Mid Valley Gardens the back battery cover they said that it cost RM 106.

My phone never drop before and no dent no scratch and i also cant believe that actually the colour would fade off like that. sad.gif sad.gif sad.gif

Yes they are. If the cover were infront of you, you definitely can see it the coat of Gold colour is very thin only. It is just like a single layer coat.

I hope that in Note 5 soon to come they wont repeat lots of previous mistake.

If Note 5 follow the stupiak S6 using glass back panel and non removable - non expendable storage then i will jump ship to LG G4.

S6 really no comment rclxub.gif rclxub.gif rclxub.gif sigh ...

Especially on the chrome linings.. since day 1 I use bumper case.. also got scratched.. now using nillkin back cover.. lazy bother the scratches..

That chrome line you want to make it like new then go Ace Hardware get the nost thinnest sand paper 0.01 mm smooth ones and slowly rub on the edge then the scratches will gone.

That sand paper only cost RM 3 ringgit.

Last time i use Spigen Tough Armor and the case bring alot of scratches to my phone especially at the bottom part. That time i use Note 4 black and it is obvious can see.

Now i change to Gold Note 4 using Spigen Ultra Hybrid and i am shock that they improve the quality of the case. The case no longer bring scratches on the phone.

I think samseng got it wrong. They r trying to copy iphone so they have variables like 16gb 32gb 64gb and can sell at various prices.

Seriously, i choose samseng cuz of the sd card and the battery. If they going to make n5 mcm s6... habislah. I go buy 4000mah lenovo. Dont need no casing. Phone is cheap as F.

Lol

Lenovo battery is good. Large enough to sustain few days.

But you will experience lagness and featureless like never before.

For me i wont buy Sony, Lenovo, HTC, Window Phone, Apple Phone and all the rest of Chinese market phone.

Sony slowly dying always the same same same thing only.
HTC lagi worst every year make same mistake and leading the company to drain.
Lenovo too many choice and uses wrong hardware on wrong phone.
Huawei / Xiao Mi / Vivo / Oppo lack focus on software makes the phone so less feature.
Apple the most stubborn one Micro SD slot tak ada. Battery drink like water, battery cannot take out / power bank so heavy cant swap battery on the spot.

The only 2 phone i will jump here and there is Samsung and LG this 2 companies made the phone so compact with lots of feature where you cant find in other phone manufacturer.

Other phone manufacturer enter the mobile industry late. They lose the chance to patent the great feature and technology. Majority of the feature is being took by Samsung and they share among Korean mobile industries like LG and Vega.

So this is my story.

Few weeks to month i am having camera focus issue where the camera on my Note 4 is having hard time to focus.

When i launched camera app it takes up to 10 to 15 second only then the camera would able to focus.

So i decided to format my phone and i try formatting / factory reset twice and the problem happens again and again.

After that i decided to send to SC to check what is really happening to my phone camera so after diagnostic or inspection found out that my phone camera already half die where focus really got issue then the SC change a new camera module for me.

Just now i went back home and i check my camera no longer Samsung Exynos Isocell SLSI_S5K2P2 camera. They had changed my camera module to Sony IMX240 where Note 4 Snapdragon uses it. Now i got a Exynos processor with Snapdragon version of camera module.

Thus i am shocked Sony IMX240 16MP camera module only cost RM 230.

I never pay for it because i send in and claim full warranty.

Hi, is note 4 camera lens scratch proof? Kinda worry as I'm using naked now.. the lens is so protruding
*
Get a case make sure the case lift up the camera part abit.

The lens there will scratch depends on condition.

Like my friend go kopitiam put on table then pushed the phone on the table surface then got one fine line already.

Don`t take the risk.
