Question about note edge 5.1.1 update from sprint today - Sprint Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anybody flashed a note edge rom or anyone flash a note 4 stock rom on the note edge. I'm assuming its all the same . Well anybody that has could you chime in if not i don't wanna start a argument with people . If anyone got a link for that tar I'll kindly flash to see if it works thanks.

My guess is you're gonna run into some problems my friend, even though it's a N4 variant we're talking apple's and oranges on a few key things coding wise.

Ive heard it kinda works if you flash a regular note 4 kernel after but not everything runs at 100%

Does "Kingdom Conquest" (the game) work?

I am addicted to this game and really want to know if it works with the Note II. It doesn't work with the S3 but this might just be an ICS issue. Both devices have the same GPU, but the Note II ships with JB.
If you could install it and see if it loads and what not that would be great! The only real downside is that after you install it and launch it, there is a 20 minute download. The game really is amazing though... :good:

Couldn't find it on the play store. Could you post a link?

I have a Galaxy Nexus ( on Jellybean ofc ) and it shows as not supported ( probably due to Jellybean ), so my guess would be it won't work on Galaxy Note II , though some1 should try and reply here.
Since it's a free game anyway, you could always find the apk somewhere and try the hard way xD

Yeah, that's the game but I also have the Nexus and it works just fine on JB. Granted, I am using jakeday's Jelly Belly rom but I don't see why it wouldn't work on the stock...? Also, I don't have an issue downloading it from the play store.
The closest test I can come up with is that there are reviews on the play store that say the S3 doesn't work with the game (and the S3 has the same GPU as the Note II). However, the S3 is also running ICS so that might be the issue... that's the big thing that iOS has going for it, you don't have these huge compatibility issues.
Anyway, if someone with the Note II could try to download this game, let it install, and test it out I would greatly appreciate it!
Bump.
One last bump now that the note II is out...

[Q] Few questions before I buy Note 2

Hello friends,
I am considering to buy a Note 2 to replace my main device as Sensation's touchscreen failed upon me.
I have few questions and I will appreciate your valuable replies.
1. Is Note 2 hardware good enough for next 2 years? I don't play much games and mostly Subway Surfer, Real Racing, MC4. Maybe half hour a month. But I want to be able to run all upcoming Android versions (atleast till developers support this device).
2. I read about SDS somewhere few months before. Is every Note 2 affected? I can't afford to have an expensive paper weight.
3. Does Note 2 have some dual-boot kernel?
4. Any ROM with Note 3 features esp that circle popup thing (or its my wishful thinking ) ?
5. Otherwise which would be recommended Custom Stock ROM, Recovery and kernel (dual-boot is definitely preferred)?
6. Any other major hardware bugs?
7. Btw, could someone guide me as how to check if I decide to buy my friend's old Note 2? How I check it for faults esp hardware? I am getting tempted as I could save some good money for other accessories
If there is something else which hasn't come to my mind but is important please feel free to add. I would be much obliged
Thank you so much !!!

1. Im fairly sure the phone will be extrwmwly adequate 2 years from now (obviously no one knows for sure) but the quad core processor is very capable of playimg the ges you mention. Although there are devices out that already have octo core processors, they all are only usong 4 at any one time and the differences are bare noticable at best.
2. As long as you are getting your phone from an authorized dealer then you shouldnt worry about SDS as that comes with older models and should come with a warrenty that would allow for replacement (one way or another)
3. The guy that built the (either S2 or S3) dual boot kernal was receiving donations to help him fund the tools to make it back in Jan-Mar of this year and I havent heard anything since... nor have I seen anything about it anywhere (atleast not on TMO LTE version. Youre more than welcome to search around a bit yourself)
4. Yes and No... there is but Team E (or whoever) has certain restrictions (really just permission only use) on alot of the Note 3 features that have been made for the Note 2... not really stone walling development, just protecting their hardwork and asking for proper credits, no alterations without reporting back to them, etc... it will be in every new rom eventually
5. Really a matter of who you ask and personal preference. I myself love Ptmr3s Jedi series (Master for TMO WiFi calling or X for other Note 2) but thats because 4.4 isnt out and I love the functionality that TW has for the particular device (samsung hasnt open sourced their SPen, MultiWindow, etc) so theyre not on non-TW BASED roms.. if you prefer AOSP, AOKP, or Paranoid Andriod, or PACMAN, etc than there are carious roms to pick and choose from. As for Kernal... each rom will provide (or users will post kernals that are compatible (I.e. dont use just any kernal on any rom... only what has been tested and proven).
6. Nothing major that isnt morw than an isolated incident at best... obviously of roms are newer or in nightly stages there will be bugs but nothing really hardware related... should mention sometimes on calls, the person your talking to will here themselves (echo) but that is sorta sparatic at best and most roms its not that bad and nothing major (again not really hardware related)
7. eMMC bug checker app. Download from play store, (look up the thread on here) and it will show you what to look for
Hope this helps...
Ultimately the Note should be continued to be developed for some time and able to withstand another 2 years of updates and new handsets. Already have 4.4 on TMO (omnirom - though not a daily driver) and carriers are pushing out stock 4.3 ASAP

@PhxDroid86
Thank you for detailed reply.
So if I am buying new deice I wouldn't have that SDS bug. Right?
I am little surprised (and disappointed) that a powerful device like Note 2 doesn't have dual-boot functionality. That way I could run both Stock (I love various TW functionalities) and AOSP/AOKP/PA, etc
Could you plz provide link or name of the ROM with Note 3 features? Does it have that circle thing?
Thank you once again !!!

Air command? (Using the SPen?) ... what carrier are you on?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
No idea whats it called. Yes using S-Pen.
In my country we don't have carrier thing. We have to buy devices at full price
Find out the model of the note 2 amd visit that particular xda thread for further info on uograded custom roms amd updates... also (in case you dont know better... dont flash a rom designed for a dofferwmt device (model number) unless you know what to do.. youll lose cell service and have a bunch of stuff to do just to fix it (some people have ecpensive paper weights)
Good luck, I think the note 2 is a good decision on your part

Yes this circle thing I was talking about. So its called S-Finder....ok

Any idea about dual-boot thing?
And, I am glad to have given you yours first Thanks here
Thank you mate
Yes it's working verry good. I am using DN3 as we speak and it's a daily driver for me. The rom does not have yet note 3 camera and have a few minor bugs but nothing serious.
For me is as if a bot a note 3 and next update of the rom was anounced allready by the developers.
Edit:
Never felt the need of dual boot and didnt heard of it either for note II.
Please excuse my english...not my native language

CAMERA MOD exist for the N900t?

So this is my second note 3 in 2 yrs.Forst I got new on release date. This one is a refurb direct from tmobile
Im Coming from a s5... I got spoiled with the little better camera clarity .
I been searching high and low for a camera a mod for this device Specially working for the tmobile variant .
I know these days almost all Samsung devices get a camera mod hack.
I seen a few referring to the 9005 model note and a sprint variant .. Stated may work with other devices. I tried to flash but fails on kitkat 4.4.2.
Do we have a dedicated camera mod for this phone.
It's supposed to disable restrictions do something with 4k video and 100% jpg quality with no suppression.
Just curious if anyone has knowledge of a working cam mod for the N900t even if it's from another forum.
Links also would be awesome
Thanks .

reason to update rom?

Hi everyone, my wife has had my old note 2 running Novella rom. It was always a great rom and i loved it but my wife has a way with electronics that is unbelieveable. She can destroy a perfectly working phone in ways i just dont understand. Anyway, is there any rom out there that really stands out without going to lolipop? Honestly lolipop may be fine its just the only exposure ive had is with locked down versions. I hate to ask this but ive been out of the note 2 scene for so long that im afraid ill miss something important. Any help would be appreciated greatly. Ive given her my perfectly tricked out note 3 so this note 2 will be mine. Thanks !
Touchwiz or AOSP?

What's your favorite ROM today right now and why?

Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Users
What's your favorite ROM today and why? Which ones have you tried and why are you on your current one vs another and do you think you you may switch back to another?
My personal experience:
CM 13 - I've tried a few versions, all seem a little buggy for one reason or another. It's been awhile so I don't remember what I had problems with.
I'm currently on PaulPizz, not the latest 8/14 version, but the one before that (7/24??).
I'm curious about the Note7 Grace port and what it brings to the table vs PaulPizz, and if it's actually buggy or not.

Note 7 Grace port is my favorite so far. It lets you experience the most recent version of touchwiz. and it has a working theme store. After using similar S7 ports based on the international version of the Note 4, the Note7 Grace port in my opinion is the best option we have for our phone.
As for the comparison I would say PaulPizz is more stable and gets a better battery life. Can't go wrong.
Note 7 Grace port has the newest version of Touchwiz, including theme store, and can be used as a daily driver. For me the only thing to be desired is a better battery life.
I haven't tried CM13 because I can't lose my SPen features.

I have to cast my vote for JasmineROM v7.0
IMO it's the cleanest and most stable TW ROM. I'd love to see an update (it's been over 2 months, let's get those security patches updated!), but it's extremely stable. It's not debloated, but @hsbadr wisely chose to leave that to the user, as everyone's needs/wants are different.
I know he's focusing on the CM base these days, but, IMO, there are (and I feel, for Sammy devices, always will be) things that CM doesn't do as well as TW. I've tried CM ROMs over the years many times, and have found ways to use the SPen, etc. but always come back to TW. The only exception I've found to date is on the 6P with Pure Nexus, but I am not sure I'd feel the same way if that device also had an SPen.
For me, at the end of the day, the most important thing a mobile phone must do consistently and reliably, is be a phone. I can't risk hot booting or freezing, or having other call/contact/record features not function 100% reliably, and solid reliability is definitely something Jasmine delivers.
I noticed that on PaulPizz, after several minutes of usage, Snapchat, specifically, my screen is hot and I get a cooling down message in my notification area. I'm not on the latest PaulPizz, I think the date is 7/24, not sure if that makes a difference or not. But, is this problem related to the ROM, Snapchat or just overusing my phone?

One way to know for sure if it's the ROM - make a full TWRP and flash JasmineROM v7.0 - set it up and let it shake out for the first day, then see if by the second day you're still seeing the same thermal issue. I can say I use my phone quite a bit and it only ever gets really hot if I clear cache and it goes through 10 minutes of "optimizing", but I've never once seen a notification about cooling down.
Bonus: You may decide you really like Jasmine and wind up sticking with that. Make a full backup after you configure it, then you could switch back and forth at will.

No, I did read the OPs for both and saw some known issues, which speaks to the reliability/robustness I cited above. Maybe some or all of those issues are worked out now, don't know? But, I'm very happy on JasmineROM, and I have next to zero time to experiment. I can say on my Nexus 6P, I am absolutely loving the PureNexus ROM with substratum for theming. The Nexus 6P is a fine device, much faster than the Note4 (as is my wife's Note 5) but, the Note 4 has a better screen, and of course, the SPen, and I'm still one to really want/require a removable battery. I've come around to the absence of a microSD slot (the 6P doesn't have one), because with USB C and OTG, it's just as good. I'd love the Note 7, but, putting aside the insane cost, has no removable battery, I'm not sold on the gimmicky edge, and, even though perm root was just achieved, still no unlock for the bootloader, so no TWRP [yet?]
That all said, maybe the fall's new Google phones (HTC) will be promising (New Android Central story says Google is dropping the Nexus branding)
cm13 is all I've used since I rooted, and I'm very happy with it. I don't get why someone would prefer touchwiz unless they reallllyyy need full s-pen functionality. am I missing something?
Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
I tried Grace and pauls and they are nice but i went back to CM13.. not a giant fan of near stock roms with verizon stuff still in them since i don't use verizon.
I just rooted my Verizon Note 4 a few days ago. Still going through the process of setting up stock 5.1.1 the way I want it so I can make a backup of it before I mess around with ROMs and Kernels. What's the best ROM/Kernel that will let me make use of the S pen and Note 4 capabilities? I heard about a note 7 ROM but it's a little overwhelming with all the options out there. I just need a good place to start. Right now I have a system only 5.1.1 firmware and oscar_kernel-v2.0 running on my newly rooted note 4.

Just FYI, you need to basically do the process twice. Once you've unlocked to 5.1.1, find the safe upgrade to MM thread. You will need to unlock again. If you dont, then MM ROMS won't function correctly. I'm on mobile right now, but look in the same forum as the other ROMS, I believe.

Hi guys, for those running TW based roms - what options do I have for themes? I have issues with my vision and can't tolerate white backgrounds. I use CM based roms primarily to get white text on solid black themes.
For apps I know I can use TBO
in the past I've installed Layers Manager and only applied themes to apps which worked ok
I've tried one or two TW based LP roms on my SM-910F but flashable themes don't seem to work and I haven't seen how well the ported Note 5/6/7 roms work with Samsung's theme store and I doubt they apply their themes to other apps like Layers can?
At the moment I have a pretty solid setup with CM12.1 and themes and it's eye friendly but I'm hoping if someone here might have a TW based rom that's fully or almost fully white on black
Stock VZW/Samsung Marshmallow rom. I needed 100% stability, no faffing about to get it running and configured, for GearVR.
Jasmine was the closest thing to what I needed, but too much fiddling - even J6.0/Android5.1.1 was too much work to deal with.

I've been using Android since 1.6 Donut on an HTC Magic. I got a Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant on release day and fell in love with Touchwiz instantly. I tried a couple of different devices since (HTC myTouch 4G Slide, LG Optimus G Pro) but I always came back to Samsung. My most recent non-Sammy was the Droid Turbo 2 - I loved the hardware, but I hated the software overall. I am not a fan of Google's version of Android. I pick Samsung phones because of the combination of hardware and software. TW/Nature/Grace does so many things right for me. Google Android doesn't. Everybody has different preferences. Touchwiz just works for me.
