Sense4All is team of developers looking to get sense 4.0 on all Samsung devices so we may have more options for our arsenals. They are on the verge of releasing a Galaxy S3 Version but are having problems getting internal storage and WiFi to work. If you are a developer who is interested in helping the project come along further please to to their website sense4all.info and see if you could throw aroung some ideas with their devs it'd be a shame to let the work and idea go to waste.

See that button in the top right that looks like an X? The OP can press that button because sense on samsung is sacrilege.
I'm willing to bet this will only work for the international version because of the LTE RIL.

I came across that site a couple weeks ago and it doesn't look very promising so far. Their furthest along ROMS, for devices that have been out for a long time, are still barely functioning. But maybe if they throw enough people at the SGSIII, they can get something that works OK by the time my warranty is up in a year and I dive into different ROMS.
I'm definitely going to keep my eye on this, because TouchWiz sucks balls... but it's going to take more than just booting with pretty much nothing working before I get my hopes up.
I'd help if I could since I'm one of the guys who wants this to come to fruition, but I have no development skills at all. I hope you guys can get it worked out though and look forward to seeing the finished product.

Just because you can't develop doesn't mean you can't help. You could help spread the word

I think the removable battery, sd card, and unlocked boot loader would be a decent wager on the converts. It's like to give sense a shot on my phone though!

Verizon doesn't have a One X
And the only other Sense 4 device on Verizon just came out (after the deadline for unlimited data) and isn't really aimed at the same market as SGSIII/One X anyway.

You are? I think touchwiz is an improvement over sense (not saying TW is awesome or anything, most ROMs have better UIs). I was in a Sprint store looking for a Case-Mat Pop (kickstand) for my phone a few days back, and I played around with the Evo LTE. I was really unimpressed with the latest Sense and was glad I went Sammy for this 2 year go around.

When we need to get your cosign to decide what we want or why, we'll let you know. Until then, get over it!

Removable battery, expandable memory, & AT&T exclusive...
I'll admit TouchWiz 4 has REALLY improved. But, Sense, even with its problems, still has a lot of function that's hard to let go of.
Would it be easier to get on the US variants?
I only say that because put the Adreno graphics on the S4 chips. I remember the NS4G Sense ports having issues with graphics because of the Hummingbird processor.

Went with sammy for the removable battery mainly. The first couple of days with the s3 without a spare battery was killing me. Ofcourse it was a new phone so I was playing with it a lot and trying out different roms etc and battery went down fast. Plus I still had to use it to make calls and text so I had it hooked up to a charger everywhere I was (home, work, car). I was always afraid of it going down to 40% battery lol. Anyway after getting a spare OEM battery + charger all is well again. No more worries specially when I went out.
Touchwiz isnt bad but sense just looks nicer to me and not having to install extra widgets (twitter, facebook, weather) was nice. Also like the weather lock screen. I miss that.
Anyhow I'm now with tmobile and Im hoping these guys will port it over to all the carriers and not just sprint.
...So when are we getting a good root?

Probably never.
I bet by the end of this week. Root will be easy, bootloader will not be broken though. I just want my Titanium Backup and Root Explorer so root is all need.
I called a few att stores in my area and each of them said they have them in stock, but cannot sell them... How'd you pull this off?

I just walked in and asked? Ha. And would we not be able to flash custom ROMS? I need my CM11!
You'll never have CM11 on it. Never. But you can use exposed and do other mods. Just no ROMS.
Wow. I guess a lot of things have changed since my old S3.

Exactly. That was the most recent samsung phone I've had where everything was in happy order. But that's why I'm buying t mobile version
They already have root

Shoot. I might consider returning it and getting a Nexus 6 then. I never even bothered doing my homework on this, I assumed it would always be possible

I was surprised when it happened because samsung phones were always so open. Nexus 6 looks good but it's just a big phone with no feature that I know of at least to take advantage if that screen. At least they finally went above 32gb now. But I don't think I'll ever buy an AT&T phone ever again.
I did the same. Walked into an AT&T near me during lunch and got a white Note 4. I wasn't expecting to be able to get one but they are selling them here in Milwaukee.
Much like some of you here, I don't need anything more than root to run titanium and a couple other things. I never understood the idea of getting a note device to throw an AOSP rom on it that negates the S Pen functionality and other Note qualities. Why not just get any other big phone?

Why do you say that? Root and bootloader are two completely different things.
Root should be easy and we should get it. Custom recovery on the other hand, probably not.
I'm in Pa and just called my local store, they have them in as well and the guy said I can come get one now. I'M on my way to pick up note 4 also. I'm with u guys just want root for titanium backup and xposed , I really don't flash roms to often anymore.

Correct me if I'm wrong but these custom ROMS don't support the S Pen. If that is true, what use is the ROMS if you can't use the S Pen. That is one major point of the whole note.

The S Pen was never a real selling point for me. HTCs have bad cameras, LGs have have horrible reliability from mine/my buddies experience with the G2 and the Note is still the spec king. I could definitely get behind a Nexus though.

Which store did you go to? I tried at the Greenfield store on 76th and Layton but they said they will start selling it on the 17th.
I don't mind touchwiz myself and if you haven't played with a note 4 in store you might be pretty happy with touchwiz this time around, its snappy and actually doesn't look nearly as bad as it used to. Can just install nova or google now launcher if it is that bothersome though from a UI perspective. Setting wise I think Samsung offers more a better features than aosp.

I got the Note 4 in Pasadena, they had 5 white and 2 black. They are technically not suppose to sell them until Friday, but all the corp stores got them. It took a bit of effort to get them to admit they had them, and I pulled the corporate partner card on them so they went ahead with it.
Now what sucks is I can't transfer any of my data with titanium backup, I am wondering when root will be available.
I also agree with others here, if you don't need or care for the S-Pen the Nexus 6 is probably the device you want...
So who will be first to release a root?
Hopefully we can get root for now... Maybe we should check out the G3 forum as they got root with the bootloader locked...

Got mine from a store in Austin today. Just walked in and they said they'd sell it.
From what I have read in the new Lollipop features, there is supposed to be an option for pinning apps so if you let someone else use your phone you can lock it to utilize just one app. It's supposed to be under Security > Advanced but I dont have the option on my phone. I have seen lots of screenshots for other phones that have it. Just the Verizon phone dont have it? Looks like a cool feature that I would certainly use.
Can someone verify they too dont have the option on their newly updated phone?
Wow - everyone else has this option but me? I will have to take my phone back tomorrow and exchange it.
None of us have it
I'm irritated that the Note 4 firmwares on all carriers didn't get it. The S6 has it, which is why I want someone with an S6 to run a logcat so we can see exactly what it is in the firmware that enables it, and what we are missing in the Note 4 so we can try to add it.
Why would they leave something like this out on these models but other Note 4s have it. Definitely frustrating.

None of the stock Note 4 phones got it with the update to lollipop.
So my note 7 just started not letting me go online while on the phone. It's very odd as it has been working fine. No updates have been done as I'm blocking then. All my settings are correct as well. Anyone else seeing this?

Lol...im a little surprised to see this question dude.
So you actually have no idea that the carriers are blocking access to their networks now?
Who are you with? I suppose it could be something else but kinda doubt it unfortunately

Verizon.. And yea it was working. Why would they block it?
Wow that was fast. Didn't Verizon just release a statement today that their going to completely cut off the remaining Note 7s from their network as a final straw?
Something like that yea.

Not that i agree with the blocking in fact i think its crap but samsung has been trying to get all the devices back.
Blocking network access was the logical next step after they realized many of us blocked the OTAs to kill our batteries and were still happily using the device.

Hello everyone,
Longtime Moto user. I got a Droid Turbo that is on its last leg. Gone though a few screens and now it will not charge. I have a battery replacement on the way to see if that fixes anything but if not I will be joining the pixel group after being a die hard Moto fan for 7 years. (Got an old S4 as my current backup phone though)
My question is if I buy it though google so i can have my unlocked bootloader, will i still have VoLTE/Video Calling when on Verizon?
Thanks

I'm rooted and have VoLTE and wifi calling. Don't know about video calls though. Don't buy the Verizon version though.

If you buy the phone through Google and use it on Verizon, Video Calling, VoLTE and WiFi calling will work. You will be able to unlock the bootloader and root.
Thank you both. That is what I wanted to know. Video calling I don't care about as much (Even though my wife does use it it is always pixelated and there are other video apps) but being able to Call and be on the internet at the same time as I do IT/Security Camera work i do need to be able to be on the phone and internet.
I did order a battery for my Turbo just to see if that will do anything but honestly I wish the Pixel had IR sensors like the Moto phones do. If they had those I would switch in a heart beat. Plus i like my hard keys. can't stand softkeys.
But again thanks for answering me guys.
