Did everyone jump ship? - Sprint Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Thete is hardly any development on this phone. My note 2 and 3 there were tons of roms. But it's dead here . Every one leave sprint? Not that i blame them sprint is pretty lame. ..

Nah, my guess would be that since we all know Lollipop 5.xx is coming, the developers are probably waiting. It's still a pretty new device too. Jmho...

Cm and asop romz are built almost daily n there getting more stable

Hybrid-X Stock ROM is probably the most stable and best rom out at the moment. He is also woking on a dark version of the Stock rom. Soo many options unlocked in this rom.
I use to use CM as it was basically "Rooting for Dummies" I am not cutting anyone down (I use to love CM) but you dont have to think with that rom you install and it does the rest it will even update the rom for you. You dont have to think when you have that rom, you are safe and should not have any problems which is why I loved it. However their roms were not stable and updating too often so I tried other builds and found Hybrid-X to be the best so far.
My guess is tho everyone else is waiting for Lolipop to arrive. But tx is still working hard on his ROM and is always improving it even when he says he is done for a while, all of a sudden there is an update or a new mod you can use. If you dont use his at least watch the build and see what is still going on with his rom.

Oh and Sprint may seem lame to you, but all carriers have their own pros and cons. For me I left verizon and came to sprint for the unlimited data and I pay a lot less monthly. Went from having to data-mine and count my megabites, to not having to worry, and I typically use 60-70 gigs a month on just my phone I get my money's worth.

Maybe we should all jump ship to Verizon or AT&T. Oh wait, there is no development on either because you can't even root their Note 4's...

I was also curious about this, I'm not too familiar with the whole developer side of android, so I'm learning!
When the official lollipop version is released for the Note 4, will we see more ROMs being developed?, and higher quality? Or should I expect things to stay about the same?
I've really really enjoyed several ROMs I've tested, I'm just curious what to expect once the official Lollipop TW is released.

Good things come to those who wait

Someone on the Hybrid page said they went back to stock and are currently downloading Lollipop. Posted screen shots too, won't be that much longer if this is actually the case. I would assume there will be a lot more action soon, or else the roms that are being made will be the best and there will be no need for a ton of different ones.

Lolipop is out now for us

And now its eerily quiet out here now... Everyone must be trying to make the best Lollipop ROM! And trying to fix the bugs.
I know which ROM my money is on.

This was exactly the reason for the hault in production in KK roms. At least it was for me. No point wasting time on a soon-to-be out of date build. And to sum up the OP's initial post... for anyone who is not happy with the lack of roms for your phone, then there are options for you. You can learn to build your own roms and you can also donate to developers to support and encourage then to continue buildg roms for free. The only reason i started building roms for the Note 4 was because there was really not many if any devs building roms for us sprint users. I made the choice to get off my @$$ and do something about it instead of crying and making posts about it. FYI to anyone not aware... building roms takes a LOT of work and a lot of time. Take that for what it's worth. I would love to sit on my @$$ and wait for awesome roms to come out and not have to build them myself!!! That's the sweet life!!! to those of you who have shown your support and respect to the few devs here in the Sprint note 4 forums, we ALL Thank You!!!

flashing i9100 roms to t989

i know its been asked but i'm starting the discussion. there has to be an easy way to flash all these great i9100 roms on to our tmobile t989. i would think its mostly a kernal difference and some hardware buttons. i say this because i love hyperdroid roms (mostly wanted s2 for use of his rom) .with the hd2 all builds worked on all phones (europe,asia,usa,etc) no matter the model number.
i am starting the discussion and will help to develop with my time and limited knowledge (i need people who know more about building these roms) a simple zip file to be flashed through cwm. most builds use a base version, then have roms and etc over the top of them. so there must be a way to find a base version you like for any i9100, flash over cwm, then flash a "kernal" of sorts that "adds in or takes out" what is needed for android to run on our t989.
any thoughts? anyone want to discuss this? i have the time (as much as possible, my gf keeps saying "why dont you just make your own and quit bit$%ing").
also i saw a kitchen for building roms for s2 but not sure if its t989 compatible.
lets get to work, our phone is new but the i9100 is already cooking along, we can piggy back and make our phones just as awesome!
Reading from the tittle of the thread, please dont do it! Just fall back..

So I understand you're not going to try to flash it but you're wrong about the major hurdle: Its the different processor. Since we have different hardware we're not talking about a slightly different radio, we're talking about two completely different devices branded as the same thing.
i realize its hardware, but isn't that all controlled by the kernal? it holds the drivers. it would be like "porting" take a rom everyone loves, make the hardware drivers work, then flash. like i said i'm limited knowledge but i want to start work on this. its a hardware thing i understand. but there must be something we can do to ease the process.
To sum up what Kevin said : It's like flashing a sensation rom on our sgs2...(Right?)
but sense has been ported to other non htc devices. my point is it can be done. we should talk about it and get a discussion going. i'd be more then happy to help "port" other roms that are out for s2 varients

Porting sense to non-HTC phones requires massive amounts of work and open source. Yes, it is possible but whether or not its feasible is a different option. You're right that the kernel is the main difference but even so its much more work than simply adjusting the kernel since there are soooooo many differences. Cashy put it well: you're porting a ROM from effectively a Samsung device to an HTC device. The only similarities are the screen and touchwiz. If you want to give it a go, I'd wait until we have a full ODIN tar to help you recover your phone because you're going to get a few bricks.
Well good luck to us all.
got my T989 few days ago, and I find it much better than the usual i9100 that everyone have on every aspect, except for the lack of support and android development. I regret I based my decision solely on technical spec rather than checking the verity of available firmware and development.
I live and use this phone in Israel, and that stock T-mobile rom I got with it is loaded with lots of irremovable T-mobile apps. Those are irrelevant for me. But the real issue is about the RTL support. I now have to read Hebrew text backwards (taht ekil hpargarap eloh a daer ot yrT) in some text fields. And it won't let me use the mobile hotspot by saying my sim card is not supported. I can't see why it connects to the internet (it does, checked my APN settings twice and it configured right) but won't let me use that hotspot.
Can't these changes in the level of GUI be implanted from other equivalent roms as source code? Does these minor changes take so much work? Before overclocking my phone to 1.89 Ghz I would rather get the basic functions done.
And I'm willing to donate, and to help in any way to promote this project.
I tried a similar thing with my LG optimus 2x (I have model p-999 which is really t-mobile's g2x) by accident. Even though the variations are named optimus 2x and the specs are almost identical, firmwares just aren't compatible with one another.
I flashed a optimus 2x firmware (p-990) to my p999 and I bricked my phone. At this point, even clockworkmod could not recover it. I had to manually partition a t-mobile g2x recovery file one by one on DOS mode to fix this. Finding this solution was like finding a needle in a haysack. I thought there was a good chance that I flushed $400 down the drain when this happened.
So, lol I dont recommend it knowing that gs2 is even a higher price to pay. Hope this helped.
it's something that I almost gave a try and then decided to check in here to see what people say about flashing these roms.. lol. Thanks guys
Lol I actually did try to flash cm for the i9100 on this phone, but thankfully it only gave me an error and didn't actually go through with the flash. (I had literally gotten the phone the day before too lmao)

It sounds like youve got porting perfectly understood. The devs havent been able to do it, you should explain how porting works to them.
The problem is not just the kernel. The software is most likely compiled specifically for the processor. If you were talking about linux . . . it would be easy because the source code is there and you can compile it for whatever processor you want, but it seems Samsung is a a company who believes in leeching off off open source and mixing their proprietary crap in it then keeping the sources closed and giving the open source community the finger. Just look at how they handled the vertical lines screen issue. Its all about money to Samsung.

Dude no need to be a punk, I seriously dislike people like you who make forums negative. He was asking a question and is trying to learn, which is more than some people do. Keep your negative comments to yourself. If you cant say anything nice don't say anything at all.
This thread was started in 2011, and hasn't been active in over 7 months. There is no need to bring it back from the dead to argue with someone.
Its not as impossible as it may seem(for the experienced dev) if u look in the dev section android88 has ported hellybean from the 9100. I'm learning & I've only gotten a bootloop at worse, haven't bricked yet lol.

It is possible with a port. The thing that brocks your phone in flashing an i9100 ROM is the kernel. If you switched the kernels, you'll just have a boot loop or no boot. Flashing another devices kernel is the killer.

Its just logic. If its that easy try it and youll learn the inside out of why. Put in a similar amount effort you are asking the dev to put in by learning something about the challenges you are asking the dev to overcome instead of assuming devs arent putting enough thought into it

Top current Roms?

Hey all,
I know this has probably been asked hundreds of times but...
I want to know what rom everyone is using that is non-ICS?
There are so many out there and I'm sure there are a few that aren't worth downloading.
Soo what rom does everyone recommend that is non-ICS.

Why would you say that? I'm sure the devs that put a ton of time and effort into cooking and posting the ROMs would love to hear that they "aren't worth downloading".
People have different needs and preferences, that's really the main difference. I've tried many different ROMs, and they are each awesome in different ways. Its unfair (and insulting) to say that a ROM is "not worth downloading".

I feel like I'm swinging the stick every time I hit that search button.
OP - Please, please, please use that search button.
Back to the matter at hand. I've always enjoyed CM7 for my stock fix. Mexdroid AIO (didn't really care for the new version) when I wanted something different. And finally I tried RevHD which was great for a Sense ROM.
I've been using ICS since T4z did his first port and haven't really looked back. Only thing I've been missing is the camera, and its not as big a deal.
quatro has working camera, or did I lost my mind .. ?
anyways, I asked the same thing a week ago, and I actually tried all of the "known", or should I say - popular roms, and this is my conclusion:
1. G-lite or G-slim. AOSP android expericence for speed. not so much good with OC which is a paradox by me, and people do not reccomend the OC (let's increase default speed, but do not temper with max speed, eh .. ? ) those are good "strpped" ROMS for freeing CPU&RAM. I dd not try the strpped CM7 verson as I dont like CM or MIUI (I prefer Andrody look more)
2. Virtuous Sense - for Sense experience. fully working ROM strpped of cr*p and fine tunned.
those are my favorites, but let's say that this is ALWAYS individual opinion, as I have read many people not liking these roms, and I tred 10 in one evening, giving every rom half an hour chance and I liked those 2 (3)

I didn't really mean it in that way, I understand that the devs have done a great job and their work shouldn't get slated, but what I should have put is 'older' and I'm looking for something that is recent but not ICS (as I want the camera working now and also annoyed at the odd bug and gfx glitches)
Sorry for that, I also have searched but as above I want something recent, and there are so many I don't have the time to download them all.

Yeah I know it's down to personal preference, just wondered what are the top roms that are 'good'
I'll check out those roms though, thanks.
I would highly recommend Virtuous G-lite or G2 slim, they are the simplest, most battery efficient ROMs for our phones but at the same time they're very fast. I've used every ROM for our devices except for a few Sense 3.* ones and the two i've recommended are the ones that i would still recommend each and every time that someone asks the question that you posed.
I am actually waiting for future development of ICS based ROM, cause Quattro is awesome (being the most stable ICS), and I tried it, but it has lots of bugs and crashes even like that. just the Dialer crashed 2 times for 1/2 hour testing, and there are some graphic screwups.
Virtuous is in hiatus, or we are in for a surprise, I guess. RC3 Quattro still isn't for everyday usage.

Still completely missing the point. If you ask what ROMs are good, that implies the remaining are "not good" or "bad".
They are all good. Just for different reasons.
Better to ask for personal favorites. Or better yet just browse through the already bazillion other threads on the same topic. Many of which are very recent, so you need not worry about the recommendations being outdated.
Andromadus audacity, any virtuous rom, or cm if you like cm. They are all good. Pick your poison try a few out.

Development for AOSP- progess in AT&T section!

I think our development fora should be linked with the other 7105 variants, there is significant progress towards CM10 and other AOSP in the AT&T forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2018411
But, since there are four (ours, international 7105, AT&T, and Sprint), the devs are scattered, when unity would breed much more success. Our accessories is already linked, how about a linked development (not just the unused developers only forum) or moving threads like this to the linked dev forum? Either way, maybe this will help bring attention to the progress that has been made.
As long as i get aosp before the verizon or sprint varients. Glad to know progress is being made.

This isn't and shouldn'tbe about first, besides once one 7105 variant has a working device tree, we all do.
I am trying to get an idea of what the differences are between the phones. From what I gather so far is there is the international 7105 and its variants which are the tmo att and sprints versions and they are all gsm? Then there is the 7100 international and its variant which would be Verizon and they are cdma? But I thought that sprint was cdma carrier so wouldn't the sprint be in with the 7100 version?
From what I understand the physical and specs are the same for all the phones and the hardware is the same except the radio difference between the two. so the software is the major difference. I know on my last phone the sgs2 the att and tmo versions were almost identical twins the two were able to use roms interchangeably without porting except for minor kernel differences. In the end the only problem was the rotation was messed up. and it was fixed by using a the kernel that was native to the device. Like if you used a att rom on a tmo phone you had to use a tmo kernel with it. and also finally someone came up with a flashable .zip fix for it. The .zip fixed the rotation and also the build.prop so that the right device was in the build.prop. So that is what I foresee here in this situation. It will take time but it will happen. I know that we got some real good devs on the tmo side I haven't checked out the other variants yet but I am sure they got some real good devs too. A phone like this was bound to attract top quality people ( and schmucks like me too) I would definitely like to see a dev only subforum for all the devices or even a forum it doesn't have to be a sub forum because then the info will be fragmented because which forum do you put it in tmo, att, sprint, international. I say make a 7105 variant dev only forum for them to talk and work out some kick ass stuff. Like AOSP and cm and of course the ultimate AOKP. And whatever else they come up with.
7105 = international LTE
Variants include:
AT&T
T-mobile
Sprint
Verizon
7100 = international GSM
7102 = Chinese GSM/CDMA dual SIM
Differences include radio hardware/software.

Coming from HTC since the beginning of my smartphone career... I'd don't know jack about Samsung, Odin, and some other differences but isn't there a way to compile roms without the radio lol? Thta would fix alot. I'm sure there might be various issues between carriers but it should work. I get cmda and dual sim models would be different but at&t model should be able to share. As someone meantioned before, once at&t subforum has their branch... we will too. It just seems that mods separated the forums to cut down on confusion for the end user but it hurts development collaboration between development and hurts the end users who read directions and don't flash stuff blindly. I'm just not used to seeing all this talent wasted by being segregated like this. Obviously there is a reason I'm not seeing... whether due to total incompatibility or something else. It couldn't be that simple, could it?! In the meantime, I'm gonna continue to read up on Samsung development and see if there is anything I can do to contribute... no matter how small or insignificant

there is a way to compile without radios, most of the ROMs do not have radios, or they are optional. Problem is since the radio hardware is different, the kernel needs to be recomplied for the 7105/variants. I will say if they get it on 7105 then AT&T, T-mobile, and Sprint should be easy to get working (sprint would require blobs, T-Mo and AT&T should work out of the box. Verizon would work only if they 1) crack the bootloader or 2) make a special k-sec version of the rom. There is a new dev section that crosses all boards so that should help the devs some. Basicaly if we get 7105 AOSP we get TMO/AT&T/Sprint and possibly Verizon.
I saw on g+ that they got a bootoble version of cm 10 on the note 2 I do not know which model and it was not a dd but it boots. That is a promising sign. We will have it soon. I cant wait. For now I am sticking with stock until a working aokp comes out. That is what I did with my sgs2 when we got ics. I didnt even bother rooting it till aokp came out.
Cmenard said hes got aokp on our note but he s having ril problems...http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Interface_Layer

i no longer need TouchWiz if GMD SPen Gestures is working on AOSP/AOKP
that's all I really care about, S-Memo I hardly use anymore.

Yes you can. Flash the cm10 floating around but be sure to flash the T-Mobile modem. I won't brick if you forget to but the reception/ signal will be much better. I'm using it as my daily driver. Its fast and amazing.
Disregard my signature. I'm on Tmo t889

To my understanding, yes, you can. I myself am on NOTEorious Prime rom which is based on the N7105 firmware but was made for ATT, all needed to do is flash the Tmo radio to get data and since I like to overclock my devices I also flashed the Note2Core kernel which will work with N7100 and N7105 roms; and on top of that I flashed an AOSP theme made by foreverloco since I can't stand Touchwiz. Overall, the UI looks clean just like AOSP (but of course, it ain't the same:crying but you can also see some elements of Touchwiz here and there...
I mean, this is just for now until a more stable port of cm10 shows up for our Note2, like you, I also like to have a clean rom and not layer upon layer upon layer.

How is the audio working out for you so far? I read they were having issues before... Have you tried flashing a third party kernel? If so, which one?
Thanks.

Audio seems to work fine. You have to make 2 phone calls upon boot in order for calls to work correctly And in the beginning of a call it sounds really low so you have to toggle the volume during a call and the. It will be regular and loud again. Otherwise seems to run great. I didn't flash any modems or extra kernels besides updated one that was in the thread.

Question on rom choice

I'm new to s3 just came from s2, I have the t-999L model. Just looking for recommendation on rom, im not one who cares about newest version of android. I'm just looking for stability, battery life, and MHL ability. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

We cannot recommend a specific ROM because a ROM that works for one person may not for another. Different people like different things in their ROMs. Also we don't want to take away from other developers who have worked very hard to develop their ROM. We can only suggest trying different ROMs until you find one that you like and stick with it.
All I can really tell you is almost of our TW roms are very good and very stable. (Likewise is good, but is a WiP)
Beyond this you'll have to just browse the dev sections as we cannot recommend one over another. (Xda policy).
Just find a rom you think you'd like and read the first page and at least the last 5-7 pages of its thread. This will give you an idea on what to expect for stability.
Good luck!

Hi everybody! My stepson just gave me his old T-999 SG3. I have his older HD2 which I have flashed with the NexusHD2 v4.5 on NativeSD. I've done more reading on XDA getting to know the SG3. I figured how what Knox is, how to root my SG3...y'all know the story. I don't mean to sound stupid but no ifs...ands...or buts, I need T-Mobile's Wi-Fi calling which I understand is not an APK but embedded in the T999s Touchwiz ROMs. I never really knew why there were "Android Original Development" and "Android Development" threads until now...one's stock, the other is not. It's impossible for me given I go to school full-time, work full-time as a substitute teacher and make the time to search every square inch of XDA for what I need to know though I have spent a lot of hours doing just that as I like to think I've made considerable progress getting to know the SG3. Until fairly recently I've been using the HTC Titan PI39100 and custom flashed and I recently sold them; sort of miss those devices today as I'm sitting on the Lumia 1525 to come down the pipe for T-Mobile. Meanwhile, this is really my first "jump in the pool" with Android on both my HD2 and SG3. What I need to know from y'all is what is the best and leanest (debloated) ROM(s) that give me this awesome Android experience so many of you are after and gives me that Wi-Fi calling which is a must? I have Skype if all else fails. But there is mention of having to flash a modem and while I don't mind flashing ROMs and other things which recovery has to do, I need to know if that is the same as the term "radio" when we were referring to the HD2, and what makes this "modem" different than the one I have in by device today which is baseband version T999UVUENC2 Kernel version 3.0.31-1962493 Build JSS15J.T999UVUENC2. I bought Titanium Backup Pro and have frozen a list of apps and other programs which so far have not disrupted my experience on the SG3 based on a couple of lists for the AT&T and T-Mobile variants. And before anybody takes a whack at answering all my questions, is there one "main" thread which can give me the "tour" of what is under the hood on this device and the terminology (lexicon) on its nuances as compared to the HD2? I want to give this Android experience a chance; thank you!

The only debloated stock ROM with working WiFi calling to my knowledge is Dandroid. I'm not recommending it over any other ROM, it just seems to fit the features you're looking for.
Modem/Radio/Baseband, all the same thing. You ate on the latest available build so you will need to stay on that NC2 modem regardless of what you flash.

Yup. They should all work just fine.

will paranoid android ever release ?

hello ive been waiting for pa from a long time ( just like all of u ) but looks like its not happening ,,, is it coming soon enuf or should i just try out other roms ? any suggestions for other roms ? im still on stock but looking to change now ,, thank you ,, appreciate your help
It will come ... Someday. If you'd like to try some ROMs, do it. It's pointless to wait for something that doesn't have an ETA.
When it eventually comes, switch to it, simple.
I've also been on stock (more or less, switching between stock stable, beta, FreedomOS and ExperienceOS) for a long time, mainly because of reports that camera isn't as good on custom ROMs. Then a few weeks ago I finally got myself to try Sultan's LineageOS and I don't regret it. Now I'm definitely not going back to stock ? I did install OOS camera port to keep the same camera experience and I have to say it works perfectly.

Try vertexos. You'll know how it's better than many many ROMs , putting up to the quality OOS offers. The dev has put in very very high efforts in porting EAS which is a deep pixel exclusive to our device and has made it better than pixel itself. You need to try it out. The other awesome ROM around here is sultan's unofficial CM14 . you can use these until aospa comes.

Carbon ROM is a good old ROM that just reborn. I would also like to see PA soon, but good stuff takes time.

It basically tweaks the system depending on your usage to save on battery without causing lag.
I made a twitter account 6-7 years ago. Then never logged in. From December I always log in to twitter just to see if there's any update of AOSPA from arter97 ? Everyday man, everyday.

Looks like they are preparing for something: https://gerrit.aospa.co/#/c/2480/

AOSPA never gonna be released. Their trademark should be FOREVER^TM.
Even Google released the beta android O to test it out.
The release cycle of PA is quite frustrating. Only gonna release of the rom if its stable. What's the point? I'm sure there will be plenty of bugs even after the release.
They should allow users to beta test build so that they can get more feedback to work on, instead of searching for them on their own.
It's been a month from their last post regarding some new update. What's the point of posting a comeback pic if are not gonna keep the fans informed about the rom.
I know we are not paying them and they are doing it in free time but their new egoistic approach towards the release cycle has made things worse to the loyal fans of PA. It's sad that I've to say this one day.
Hope PA stop making further development and stop damaging the name of the best rom during his days.

I think they are very close to release ASOPA, though I'm agree with you. They should have let us test.
