hi guys..

planning to flash custom rom for my note 4. any recommendations?

found some in xda. any other websites that i can find somemore?
*
Wannam close to stock
Leaner rom - SS ( very lean) or Sweetrom
All these 3 I had tested n are good n stable
Go and read XDA for its details
I am now on SS rom.
NO need to wipe data if flash over stock rom for these
Just wipe cache is sufficient

Simpl rom v4c can't launch Sygic v15.3.0(paid full version) = fc
Gmaps also giving me fc.
I had to install Papago M11.
*
Sygic confirmed FC if you had xposed mod installed.
I tested too with my paid version
So now using Waze instead
Google Maps perfect n no FC at all

Note 5 cimes wirh 3K battery only - why!!

A dissapointmenrt indeed added with no ext SD card support. Looks like another failure coming up from Samsung. Will decide only whether to upgrade after reviews n hands on. For now 8/10 unlikely I will upgrade
Note4 serving me very well with good performance n good battery life too
Now back on Simpl 4c rom after several days on SS rom.

Seems like G4 is the clear winner. Narrows my choice to G4 or N4.

Thank you!  notworthy.gif

G4 is good replacement for N4 ...only weakness it doesn't have SPen.

guys.. do you know where is the location of usb connection/option in note 4?

I accidentally switch MTP to PTP..in the drag down menu when connecting to computer..

but when I switch to PTP.. i can't no longer find the setting in the drag down menu.. cant use MTP at the time being..

----

SOLVE.. using code *#0808#.. can enable back MTP..

dont know why samsung hide the option..
*
When you see USB logo at taskbar just drag down n you can change anytime. No need to type any codes
I always do it that way

Got not so good reviews about this Aukey from G4 thread - apparently it doesn't charge as quick as stated. My Tronsmart Qualcomm 2.0 QC charges my G4 in 1.5 hours from 5% to full and is obviously at least 50% faster than this Aukey
Are you sure this Aukey will work on Samsung Note 4 with Exynos chip ?? On Note4 SnapDragon chip - yes it could work

If I blocked a number using the in built call blocker, will I get a notification if the blocked number calls me?
*
It will be shown as missed call. You can test yourself with a fellow family member . Just remember to unblock back the number after test

S-Pen working right - i mean just for basic use - I only use the S-Pen occasionally only.
How about the video recording,camera & slow motion recording - is it working?
*
SPen working but cannot install those SPen app
Camera replaced with very basic Google camera n has very limited functions vs Samsung camera
Yes is working. No slow motion recording.Wonder why you need SM recording??

Ok thanks - video recording important to me for travelling & work purpose.
CM12 installed in my son's S3 already - not bad.

CM 12 Google camera is many many class below Samsung camera. Stick to Samsung's rom if camera/video is important to you. I tested CM 12 out of curiosity. The last time I tested it was in June when than cannot even detect simcard !!

"Stagefright" is the nickname given to a potential exploit that lives fairly deep inside the Android operating system itself. The gist is that a video sent via MMS (text message) could be theoretically used as an avenue of attack through the libStageFright mechanism (thus the "Stagefright" name), which helps Android process video files. Many text messaging apps — Google's Hangouts app was specifically mentioned — automatically process that video so it's ready for viewing as soon as you open the message, and so the attack theoretically could happen without you even knowing it.

Or the app is inaccurate
Anyway I test for fun only!!

S6 is efficient???

I deemed the S6E chip quite efficient as despite its higher level of warmness n higher resolution display I could get 5-6 hours SOT. I was expecting 4 hours n below initially. Same SOT on both 32 n 64gb units.

True as I had never bother to use the dual sim but instead chose the other slot for ext sdcard. Just so happen the phone has dual sim features only. So it doesn't matter to me whether phone is dual sim or not!
