This is awesome, we have the Android 5.1.1 update already. Full firmware. Odin TAR, man!
And, the goods. download link Btw, for direct download links of the firmware, see the source page linked below.
Source: here
Just updated..... From a look and feel standpoint it is still as laggy for me as always. Not sure what to think. Multi tasking is still as terrible as ever. Cannot Switch to another app and back to chrome without the page reloading, for me makes the phone almost unusable for what I need it for. While I was updating I broke out my note 3 and I swear it feels twice as fast as this phone. I am sure the typical it is a lollipop issue will be the response to the multi tasking issue, but the lag this phone has is unbearable. And small little things they could have easily fixed like the night clock are still not fixed. I am not sure what to think at his point.
RAW and multi user support?

It seems even though on Nexus, 5.1.1 doesn't completely fixed the memory issue, it is just better and improved. Google been said it will be fixed completely only on Android M.
Can you report any RAW and manual shutter support in camera? Any guest mode or multi-user mode available?

Also can you run this app to test the camera api2?

I somehow don't think the mass killing of application is Lollipop's problem by Samsung's. Other phones like the M9 or G4 had no problems with that. Lollipop only make the matter a bit worst due to its memory leak but still it shouldn't be so bad.
Before I get my s6e, I have using the Nexus 5. Since the first day 5.0 is released, I never had such terrible memory issues whereby I have to be afraid to switch applications because the things I do might be gone. I think either the LMK is too aggressive or the Touchwiz is still using up too much ram.
I am sure the typical it is a lollipop issue will be the response to the multi tasking issue

I was, I lost it, and I can't get it back. Phone hangs at "RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING". PingPong says it's not supported.
*EDIT* I noticed that all of the apps I disabled (with the exception of WhatsApp) prior to updating are still disabled, so I'm not too worried about waiting until Chainfire updates.

Ping pong will not root 5.1.1 even, the kernel date is after may 15. For those who wants root just wait to update until a dev releases the flashable version, which requires you to flash the modem,etc in Odin

"While I was updating I broke out my note 3 and I swear it feels twice as fast as this phone"
I think you got a lemon there, and should go change it. I have a note 3 as well and nowhere as fast as my S6E. I think the carrier ones have the most issues with lag and battery life. My international version is just superb, smooth and fluid from day one. The aggressive RAM is there, and hopefully they fix on updates.
Mine keeps failing with tghe OTA for some reason, even did a factory reset after un-rooting. Can I flash this via Odin or smart switch?

I'd never noticed that bug before, but the setting seems to work as it should in this build. I'm in a dark room now, and turning off auto brightness brought the screen to full bright.

I got my phone last monday and today my phone was lagging while swipping through home screens, app drawer and even in settings. It was like project butter was shutdown and I was back to the epic 4g. Thought kind strange giving the specs on this phone.. I have stock jb and no root.
After a restart everything went back to normal.
Just curious, does this happen to everyone here? Is this normal to happen after 2-3 days of use?

You must not be actually closing apps just hitting home I assume but if not then idk the problem
Sent from my SPH-L900
Yes I did close them... I even tried force closing all. Not sure why the phone was struggling a little.
you didn't enable power saving mode by any chance?
also, android should be fairly good at managing your memory. i believe google doesn't really recommend task killers because whenever you kill tasks that the OS needs, it'll just reload it, which itself consumes resources (maybe more resource than letting the process simply idle). so just leave those processes alone.
Are you running SetCPU? Make sure it didn't accidentally severely under clock you. That happened to me once and SETCPU was running me at 200 mhz for some reason.

I would double check on all the apps you've previously installed. I'm still on stock JB unrooted as well since released day (Oct 25), not once I've experience any lag that yours producing. Heck I've loaded a bunch of games and apps now my main storage is down to a gig, even then I haven't noticed any slow down. This phone is a beast thats all I can say.

Yeah, thats unfortunate because if anything the phone should speed up after a few days of use. Why don't you just keep it to the 1 thread you started in the GT 7100 forum? You already got 4 pages of responses there. And post a video of what you're talking about because the phone should not lag at all with power savings off.

I didn't strat a thread there... just replied to one and it was a different are of problem anyway..
Guys.. I didn't install any task killer, I just force off using that long pressing home button and going into running apps, the phone, no power saving mode on, still unrooted and very few apps. I use Android for 3 years and I looked all the places to make sure settings would not be causing this and it was not.
Really weird problem... it's fine now I just hope it keeps running this way by tomorrow.. I'll let you all know, if anything I'll make a video if I can reproduce.

Don't close the apps down just back out of them because you'll lag more when your phone sits there trying to open them all up again and cache them. But I agree its a strange problem, if this occurs againit might be something very specific.

That's strange. Yeah I would pay close attention to the problem and if it do come back, then maybe you probably have a bad note II. You never know, not everything are created equal. In that case I would take it in for a repair person to check it out.
Is there a way to know if all cores are running on stock Android?
I've also seen some sick battery life in this phone, but not on mine. Yesterday I got 12 hours with about 3 1/2 of screen, with few and short phone calls. What I used the most on this phone was the internet and the browser..
Not sure if these are related.
EDIT.... I installed CPU usage Monitoring and the 4th core stays off most of the time.. when I opened videos and messed with more apps it started working so I'm answering myself on that. Also, I played a video with the pop up function and the cpu only gets to about 30% and not even on all cores... wow.. the processing power here is really impressive.

Even though I would never use a phone like that, still very impressive...
So, I bought it on launch day and I'm getting desperate...
1) Wake screen after receiving notification (text etc). Pull down notification bar, back and multitask soft buttons grey out and phone will not respond. If I'm listening to music when this happens, the song keeps playing until I pull the battery or the phone reboots itself.
2) General lag is awful... More than half the time it has noticeable hangs switching apps or opening anything. I'm down to next to no apps that i've installed and have even tried removing just about everything I have with no improvement. Scrolling stutters about half the time as well. And the image you see with the camera open stutters badly also. Every once in a while it's buttery smooth for a few seconds then slows again.
Battery life is great and I love the form factor of this phone. I REALLY don't want to get rid of it but I'm at the point where it's more important to have a phone that's usable than have the extra screen size etc.
It's bone stock and I haven't tried a factory reset.
Suggestions?
Try the factory reset then go from there.

Was just wondering if anyone with the T807 10.5 tablet might want to share any news as to gaining root for our devices. I've begun feeling like the bastard child over here. This is my first tablet and I love how well it's performing. I just really hope that the processor in this model is not worth anyones effort to try to work on.

Battery is not an issue. I've only had mine two weeks. I watch a lot of videos on CNN and YouTube. When I first got the tablet my battery did seem a little sluggish. most likely the result of all the crap that was being downloaded automatically the first day or two. I noticed now that after a few cycles of charging things have settled down and I'm getting adequate battery life. to be honest this tablet is a beast and I love it. I've watched close to an hours worth of videos this morning only down 7 percent. maybe you have some rogue application running in the background ?

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF U DAMAGE YOUR DEVICE OR DELETE DATA....PLEASE ATTEMPT THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!
first i suggest reading through the thread linked below so u will know what i do...long story short though there is a user here by the name of @BDA_Rival who basically did the worse thing possible by trying to root his SNAPDRAGON 807 with an EXYNOS 805 cf auto root and as u may have guess ended up soft bricking it (its hard to actually permanently break it...although the fact that the odin firmware is unavailable at the moment is a bit of an issue). The ONLY reason i'm even suggesting this is because there is a known working way of getting the tab back booting & worse case u can return it & say it messed up during an over the air update or something. Ok...so what ended up saving the other guy was twrp for the NOTE PRO 12.2 905 LTE which is not only snapdragon but apparently uses the same partition structure (just to be clear...twrp only caused the device to become bootable again but does NOT actually function properly most likely due to different display drivers). So....with all of that said it is QUITE possible that the cfauto root file for the P905 could be used to root the sprint/verizon (full disclosure...the other users tab was a sprint variant) version of the tab s! Did i mention that there was a catch...well even if this does work due to the nature of how @Chainfire root method works u will be left with a copy of the stock note pro recovery instead of the origial 807 version which most likely will NOT work combined with the fact that there is a no cwm or twrp for your device yet (should be an easy fix if we could get the devs attention) and u will be left with a device that boots possibly with root as well but WITHOUT recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/help/firmware-sm-t807p-t2884192/page2
^807 root brick thread (advise reading before trying...its only 2 pages long)
just wanted to add...the user tried the suggested autoroot in post #6 but that didnt work & the one mentioned here is linked in post #14
Id love to root, but I am perfectly fine holding off until we have our versions firmware available. Root is another thing (as I've noticed lately with phones) that I have seen, where users can obtain root with other similar models. Having TWRP from the Note Pro work is going in the right direction for us.
I'll definitely be watching the thread you linked. Thanks for your post.

I usually get 4.5 days per charge with 7 plus hours of screen time. Lots of Web surfing on network and youtube. There is a trick to condition your battery when you first use a new device it solve your issue currently.
I always setup then use my new device until the battery dies. Then recharge fully before the next use.
My setup includes tuning the sound, I disable all click tones and vibrations including touch vibration
WIFI
WiFi alway on, ALL Wifi >Advanced options disabled
SCREEN
The display I set to 25% then set to auto
Screen timeout set to 30 seconds
Smart screen disable reading disabled
Reading mode Disney
SYNC ACCOUNT
Gmail sync all disabled (when I read my Gmail I manually sync)
I have two email accounts I sync automatically for my business
GPS
GPS disbled unless in use
Disable locations and notification for all apps expect Google maps
MESSAGING
Messaging notification on but sound disabled
WIDGETS
Weather widget set to refresh hourly (this is the only widget I used which syncs)
No Facebook Twitter or other accounts , If I had them I would sync them manually
I also have a cover with magnets which disables screen when I close the cover
The procedure has become second nature for all my new devices
SG Note OG , note 2 and 3. On these phone I get 7 plus hours of talk time per day mostly on bluetooth with 2 - 3 hours of screen time over 18 hours mostly on the network, and moderate music streaming
I hope this helps

What i do is I turn wifi scanning off when connected to a network. I also set my brightness to 25 percent and keep auto brightness off which works better for me. Smart stay on, adapt display off and set to cimema mode, smart pause off, and debloated some things such as knox,flipboard,buiness+,sidesync since im rooted. Hope this helps for anyone else too!
We need to be careful about these threads-- evidently ALL US LTE versions have the SM-T**7 naming convention, including the exynos AT&T version. As far as I know, the Verizon and Sprint versions are T807.
I have the t807 for tmobile ( non snapdragon )
used the 805 auto root.
worked just fine.
I am not trying anything else, such as twrp and roms
unit the official development is done

Ok...so what ended up saving the other guy was twrp for the NOTE PRO 12.2 905 LTE which is not only snapdragon but apparently uses the same partition structure (just to be clear...twrp only caused the device to become bootable again but does NOT actually function properly most likely due to different display drivers). So....with all of that said it is QUITE possible that the cfauto root file for the P905 could be used to root the sprint/verizon (full disclosure...the other users tab was a sprint variant) version of the tab s! Did i mention that there was a catch...well even if this does work due to the nature of how @Chainfire root method works u will be left with a copy of the stock note pro recovery instead of the origial 807 version which most likely will NOT work combined with the fact that there is a no cwm or twrp for your device yet (should be an easy fix if we could get the devs attention) and u will be left with a device that boots possibly with root as well but WITHOUT recovery.

I tried this method and had to odin the firmware to get tab working again. Just an FYI. I will be uploading the firmware to androidfilehost soon

I just bought the 807T from T-Mobile too. When you restart your Tablet holding the home, volume control and power button bring you to a download screen? I don't get that option. Instead I get a image of the android laying down with a exclamation mark coming out of his stomach and the options:
reboot system now
apply update from ADB
apply update from external storage
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache
Am I doing something wrong?

Looks like you're pressing volume down instead of volume up.
Umm. Volume down, home key, and power button ??
POWER + HOME + VOL DOWN = Download mode.
POWER + HOME +VOL UP = Recovery.
Day 269 still haven't found a way to root sm-t807
I installed TWRP and a rom and the phone ran smooth. No issues. But after installing Wanam and Xposed a lag developed. I installed a analog clock and watched it. Every 3 to 4 seconds the clock will stop for 1 to 2 seconds. Videos freeze, while typing the keyboard freezes. I have tried the build prop edit, the wanam fixes with no help. I have even tried going back to stock. The lag is even there in the stock rom. I have not tried rooting the stock rom, just skipped that and installed TWRP then a rom. I have also notice when odining back to stock that the Sprint and the Sprint Spark logo does not come up. I am thinking that the stock logos should come back. Can anybody help with what could be going on with the lag.

Well I took the phone to best buy today and had them reflash the stock firmware. I finally got the sprint logo back on bootup, but it still had the same bad lag. I think the phone was not fixable. Ive done all the same things on wifes note 4 and it started working right after installing the stock firmware. Mine just wouldnt. So I will just buy another phone.
Are you past your return period? If so then I guess your stuck and will have to fix it yourself. It sounds like your problem can be fixed with a odin flash back to stock. Once you do that then immediately go to the activate phone option in settings and also update prl and profile. I think you'll get it sorted out by doing this. It definetely sounds software/firmware related so no worries.

What is "PRL" and how can I check and change mine if i need to.
and change it to what?
im rooted stock.TWRP and wanam lag fix and build prop fix,but I still have a very slight lag.
thanks..
Settings, system update, first click update profile. When it finishes and your data come back, click update prl.
Xposed will always produce some lag based on how the additional framework functions upon boot. Its the nature of the beast I suppose. With the simplicity comes a price. Hopefully there will be some custom roms soon and you won't need the xposed framewor & modules.

You're incorrect about xposed always producing lag. Do you even know the technical details of how xposed works? I'm inclined to think that you have no idea.
Anyway, for anyone experiencing lag after installing xposed, do this. It solved any lag I had:

My apologies for saying xposed framework always produces lag. I know it can be installed and run eith little to no lag, especially with these more powerful phones.. I also like the whole concept and the fact that it works for both deodexed and odexed systems. But I don't like a seperate running jar with a bunch of module (apk's) running in addition to the regular system files. (I know not all the modules are always loaded and unused ones sit dormant). For older devices that don't have enough ram etc this caused problems if you loaded it up too much. I guess this is what i based my opinion on. Then again you could be right and I have no clue about how xposed works. Lol. INo offense taken viperboy. I'm just used to doing everythong manually aka the hard way. Lol

Read up on it a bit. You define a method that you want to modify and you can do things such as modify that method before, during, or after it runs. That's why xposed is awesome and extremely versatile. The only time you typically need to update your xposed code is when the method you're modifying moves to a different class or the logic in it dramatically changes, which doesn't happen too often between software versions for most major things one would want to modify.

So does that mean xposed will get updated to work with lollipop/ART?
And I remember you from eVo 4g lte, will you be deving on this phone?
After doing literally everything to fix my phones lag, I took it too the Sprint store and they verified that they have had several Notes with the same issue. Apparently it is a motherboard issue that some of the earlier phones have had.
Mine wasn't so much lag, as the phone was perfectly fine, it was mostly that the phone would freeze upon flicking/scrolling/typing for 1 second randomly, and then it would mash all the commands you had entered in at once to catch up. Was VERY frustrating. I'm just glad it was hardware related, and not software like I believed..
I'll be getting a replacement free of charge on Tuesday.

How long have you had the phone?
Preordered through Sprint and recieved it the day before release.
I'm having same issue. Every 3-5 seconds my phone freezes for a second. You can even see it recording a video. I tries the reset but still no go. Going to sprint Monday.
Same here and i never installed exposed

None at all, but I also added the $10 insurance to my Note 4 upon activation. It covers 2 phone replacements no questions asked. They didn't even mention my knox being tripped.
Took my phone this morning to local store. Guy at store said he would order me a new one on Monday. Didn't want to give me a refurbishes one. He tried the phone for 2 minutes and said it needed to be replaced.
So I got the S6Edge and its suppose to be lag free most of the time, but mine lags when typing and sometimes misses letters I type, also the touchwiz launcher sometimes freezes and switching apps lag and stutter, google chrome and the Samsung browser aren't smooth at all, they suffer from freeze and lag, what can I do?
Will flashing stock firmware remove lag?
Start ing to regret this phone, I paid $1000 for it and there's lag..
Yes thats what im thinking also, this supposed to bw the fastest phone amd t still lags . I had the Nexus 6 , Moto 2014 and the Htc m8 all of them with zero lag. From Galaxy s6 edge I take out the camera and everything else is a fail.
I don't have these issues. I would go ahead and start fresh.

I have no lag or stutter at all. I'm rooted.
The only issue is a not so good battery life but it's been fixed by using airplane mode at home where I literally have no signal and depend on WiFi calling anyway.
If you had to update via OTA then I suggest you re-flash the stock ROM as that doesn't seem to have issues while the OTA might have introduced a few

Yeah mine does it too. I'm very close to returning my phone. I have gone through two so far, my third one will be delivered today. If this has stutter as well along with GPS issues, I'm done. I have less than 7 days left in my buyers remorse period. So It is now or never.
I may try the M9, but I honestly think I'm just gonna use my iPhone 6 until the Nexus 2015 or Note 5 is available.

I was in your boat too. Try the suggestion above. There is something with the update they pushed that is not only killing the battery but makes the entire phone lag. Follow the thread posted above and clear cache and do a full reset. I was literally going to go get an M9 2 days ago before I did this. Entirely different phone now. I got 15 hours today with over 4 hours screen on time and zero lag.

Okay cool I'll give it a try. On another note though it appears to have been hardware issues. My GPS was broken so it kept seeking location which dropped my battery way down. It also just couldn't find my location. I have cleared cache and done all that jazz with it and even used GPS Fix to no avail. So far this new replacement seems to be doing the job.
I'll take a look at not doing the OTA.

You should do the ota, but then clear cache and reset to factory afterwards.

Just to clarify once you do the ota update you will want to power off the phone and then hold the volume up + home button + power button. Once booted into clear cache and then do a factory reset.

Just my two cents, I think this is a memory leak issue. I've seen the phone start to get bogged down but with a quick restart, the smoothness returns as it should. I'm hoping that 5.1 will fix this memory leak.
If all else fails try this.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3079176
Helped clear up a lot of things for many people. My main issue was fast battery drain. Seems to be a lot better now. I'm a pretty heavy user so this helped me.
I would go ahead and start fresh.
