Develop Bugs

Can someone explain this to me please ?

Hi guys,
Im still disappointed about my screen and looking to exchange my phone pretty soon. But for now I have other issue.
Tonight I was texting with my phone and my battery was around 60%, then suddenly my phone froze and it got shut-off. I tried to turn it on but nothing happened so I removed the battery and the phone turnes on just fine. Then I notice a ~%30 drop in my battery level as it shows in the picture I have attached. What the hell is this and why mu phone froze ??
I never rooted the phone and it is still lock to Telus.
Thank You in advance.

well according tot he usage tracker, there was some serious usage by the drop on WiFi, Awake and Screen
on the other hand that sudden drop, could mean the battery actually had less charge than the sensor detected, so it readjusted itself

Oh so after the restarted the phone detected the actual charge of the phone ? So thata kinda normal ?
How about the frozen phone ? Has anyone had their T989 phone frozen so far ?

I've had mine for almost 2 weeks now (stock, not rooted) and it hasn't frozen/restarted/etc.
Also luckily I have minimal screen issues. I would exchange it and hopefully get a better one, because I really love this phone!

Not sure in your case but
i know some root only required apps allow you to push/continue anyways maybe a force close or something caused a freeze

[Q] Ubuntu

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-20891868
Hopefully we will be rocking Ubuntu soon!
What's everyone think about this?

I have a sneaky suspicion this is one of the main reasons Samsung went with a Smart Dock for the GN2.
Add it up - quad core system with resources, ubuntu, way to hook up peripherals....
That really makes a portable desktop short of virtualization.

you may be interested in this thread, I found through the main page portal: Linux on Android
I haven't tried it yet. Could be a nice option for those things that just aren't mobile friendly.

Big Meh from me.

I tried it and wasn't able to get it working before I gave up. I'm excited to see an app that will hopefully make it easy.

I don't think this is the same. Ubuntu for Android is a phone operating system and desktop in one OS. What you are running is Ubuntu desktop on a phone. Ubuntu for Android allows you to make phone calls, text etc....

Any ideas how we get this on our devices yet?

Agreed. Thus is why I said may be of interests.
As for the mobile ubuntu OS, I think you're going to have to wait a bit. It wasn't announced that long ago. It's only recently been shown in any kind of working format, which was on a Nexus phone. Once the code is released, then will be challenges or getting everything to work such as LTE and S pen.

[Q] To Update or Not To Update, ...

Hello to all that read this,
Short:
I've been experiencing intermittent sluggishness, should I update OTA or swap device? I want to be able to jump right into root when available.
Long:
I've been experiencing annoyingly slow behavior from my baby (Note 4).
I am coming form a GS3, so I just assumed the blazing speed of this new phone, would keep me happy for at least the next 2 years.
Ex: When I press the RecentApp button, the device chugs for about 1.5+ secs. (It shouldn't be long enough to count "One-Mississippi"-style.)
When I am switching between apps, I've noticed this same chug.
I DO use Power Saver mode but currently that's on and I had a 2 sec lag, with only 3 apps open(Settings, AppDeals, Ridiculous Fishing)
Thanks for any help, in advanced!

You already know the answer, if you take an update there's a chance root will not work for you. Hell we may never get root for that matter. It's a case of damned if you do damned if you don't.
Decide and go forth my child
on a side note I changed my launcher, going with nova launcher, there's no lag especially with the recent apps Button etc might want to try that before you make a decision

I'm guessing he's talking about any hypothetical updates. Lollipop, whenever it hits will likely be the next update.
The developers are working on a crack for the firmware as it exists today. Any update will prolong the chances of getting root, perhaps fatally.

Yeah, that's what I feared thanks.

You can go into Developer Options and change the following options to .5 seconds or off that might speed things up a little:
Window Animation Scale
Transition Animation Scale
Animator Duration Scale

I would do the following:

2) apply these tweaks http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon/general/speed-note-4-root-t2922169
3) Still have issue swap out phone.

Maybe it's considering the fact you're rooted a security threat? That programs meant for a completely secured stock unrooted status and maybe even OEM locked too, yet you mentioned you're not, so.....

So i enabled developers option, OEM was enabled so i turmed it off and rebooted, I'll check in the 2 hrs to see if there's security threat come on again
Thank u

Security threat is on again with few minutes

If you're worried about the security threat, flash back to stock firmware and don't root your phone. You'll never be bothered by that threat again.
Oh yeah, visiting too much porn sites on your phone causes a vulnerability too, the system can only handle so many trackers but if you're a frequent visitor to those sites, all those trackers overwhelm Samsungs firewall causing small pockets/holes everywhere, which leaves you wide open, susceptible to attackers or hijackers. The more nudy vids you watch, the more times your IP address and IMEI# shows on the bad guys database. With all the vulnerable holes in your system, as soon as you log on and start watching your fave vid and your pants half way down to your knees. your status immediately shows as open on the attackers end and they can simply with a few clicks gain complete control and full access to your phone. The current trend is that they'll hack your front cam, by then you're playing with willy, so they'll record or remotely take pics of you, yet you'd never know they're even watching. Then will post those pics and vids on their FB and Instagram accts, for all their buddies/followers to rate or comment on. Definitely not a nice thing to do to someone but it sure is pretty funny! Hopefully we won't see you on there...!

Samsung "notes" app - running too much in the background

Hi all
As you can see in the image, the Samsung Notes app is running wayyyy too much in the background, eating up my battery. This is even after I make sure the app is closed after using it!

}
I tried to set the app to go to sleep, but this was not possible as it is a Samsung dedicated app. I couldn't even optimise this app either. The only solution seems to be "force stop"ing this app, which I prefer not to do as I use the app once or twice a day to write notes.
Anyone have any thoughts on how to stop this app from running so much in the background?

Possibly notes is trying to continuously update to the Samsung Cloud?

Thanks for your response, but nope - I've disabled everything from being able to backup to Samsung cloud

Personally I don't understand why the applications stay active in memory after I stop using them, since I can't tell the difference even if my life depend on it if apps is cold started, or starts from memory, either way it starts almost instantly, so yes I would definitely force stop it myself, especially that I feel this "feature" of all apps staying in memory is more for advertising purposes than anything else, especially now. There is a switch to either put app to sleep or not allow background activity, one is under apps inside battery menu, another under battery usage menu. I'm trying to limit all apps from running in the background, except for map which needs to be constantly updated for traffic, but what a pain in the neck it is, there are over 400 apps on the damn phone.

Disable or uninstall this trashware.
Switch to an app that stores your notes in a standard format such as text files etc so you can always read them in the future.
Finding a good free office app is now almost impossible for Android. I use an old copy of Kingsoft WPS Office. Today's newer versions though are pure crap unless you pay, pay, pay.
Used Samsung Notes on my S4 but restoring them became a tedious nightmare when I migrated to the Note 10 platform because Samsang "upgraded" their app so it wasn't backwards compatible with their older version's note files.
Don't trust Samsung with any data you care about; they will make it obsolete by their time table not yours.
Thanks for nothing Samsung... feel the wuv for the rabid gerbils in the box.
