-Mobile Galaxy note 5 receives new update to OH4 build number

T-Mobile Galaxy note is getting a new OTA, to build no.*OH4. We don’t have proper details about the OH4 update for T-Mobile Note 5 yet, but looks like Samsung*and T-Mobile noticed something that needed quick fixing. After all, it isn’t been long since Note 5*was launched by T-Mobile and Samsung.
The full version of the*software updateis*N920TUVU1BOH4, and it runs onAndroid 5.1.1*exactly.*
For now, pick up your T-Mobile Galaxy Note 5 and see if you have already received an OTA notification. If not, then it’s time to tap as many times as require/you can on ‘check for update’ button under Settings > About device > Software update.

Mine updated about an hour ago. I was hoping it would activate the Samsung pay app since i was accepted into the beta program but it did not. I wonder what's changed...

From what I can tell so far at least this update has fixed the wireless charging issue I was having when using the Samsung wireless pad that came with my S6. So far its been charging to full with no issues since this update. Before it would constantly pause and never charge fully.

This should be the video calling feature http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/0...oday-on-the-galaxy-note-5-and-galaxy-s6-edge/

Does anyone know what fixed were in this update? I haven't found anything online.

Lol. Thanks for your reply but I was asking if anyone has seen an official report of the changes this brought to our phone. I noticed the camera in the dailer the first thing after the update. Sorry I don't mean to sound harsh.

I think I saw it in a similar thread when it was first reported yesterday. Wireless charging fix and auto brightness fix.
Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk

After installing the update I'm noticing that Wi-Fi performance is significantly worse than before. To the point where Wi-Fi Calling isn't a reliable way of making phone calls any more. Running a simple speedtest shows very spikey results, jitter is much higher. Tried it on multiple Wi-Fi locations.
When on LTE, service is excellent as usual. I'm stock.
Anyone else having this issue?

Anywhere in TMOs footprint using Carrier Aggregation (CA). I'm starting to see Band 12 as a default instead of Band 4.

This morning I received this notice of a new update. It doesn't say much, but is 112MB in size.

I was going to post this as well. Has anyone updated or have you postponed it? I postponed mine for now as I'm thinking of rooting my phone and I don't know if root will be possible if I update now. Also I've had Samsung Pay for a while now so I don't need that although I did hear others getting updates on their versions of Note 5's so that the wireless charger (bestBuy free one) would work on our Note 5's.

It doesn't appear to be working on my phone. Tested it just now to see and made sure to go reconfigure it in the ##DATA# settings but no dice. It will unlock tethering but any device I connect to it can't use the Internet, basically acts like the device isn't connected to the Internet.

Holy battery Batman! I didn't want to say anything earlier, but I'm convinced, battery life is **** now after update.

Not sure what this update did, but my phone has been randomly locking twice now since the update. Never had this issue before, no roots/mods applied and no new applications.
Edit: Went into stock recovery and did a cache wipe to see if that helps at all. Really prefer not to wipe this phone but may have to if it continues :-/
Did not work, it freezes constantly now and will now try wiping it....Samsung really tore it up now.
Okay really upset now...did a factory reset and it's freezing at the setup screen. I just got this phone not even two weeks ago.

Sorry to hear that. My phone only restarted once so far. Hope it doesn't continue.

So update here... Whatever this update did has tore my phone to inability to function. Constant rebooting/crashing even after factory resets in recovery/in-OS. Looks like I'm yet again going into the Sprint store to get it fixed.
Last edit i hope: So after letting it set there and reboot constantly, it has stopped and is behaving itself for the past hour so far. I do not know what it was that caused this. I've already activated Samsung Pay again and still good. Will keep updated.

If you keep having issues, download the stock tar and try to flash in Odin and then do a factory reset. If that fixes it, just don't update.

Has it been tested that we can "downgrade" to the previous version? Saying this did activate Samsung Pay and it dealing with hardware it might have incremented the firmware. Did that once on a older phone and rather wait till it's a green light to do it.
On another note, I'm noticing that my phone crashes when I'm at work. I can be anywhere else so far and be fine, just when I get to work my phone starts to act up. I know the firewall is heavy on reading all data going through it. Could it be possible that Samsung Pay is not liking the breach of certificates in it's data and causing the phone to reboot in panic?

Thanks! Checked my S7E after seeing this, and installing now! Are the changes in performance noticeable? How is palm rejection now?
Edit: Phone has a black screen that reads, "Installing Applications" after it rebuilt ART. The progress bar isn't moving after a few minutes. Is this normal?

I never had any issues with that before. Performance and battery seem great so far. Android System/OS each are using less resources than before too. Very happy so far.

It stayed like this for probably ten minutes, rebooted randomly, then went back to it. I came back to it and it was booted up normally. Weird, but oh well. Palm rejection is crazy! You can set one finger on the edge and use another to swipe around the screen now

Still early to see if I see any difference in battery. I think they just fixed the way battery stats report android os use. Before the update, Android was #1 on the list showing 800+ mah of estimated battery usage. Now it's showing 326 mah usage. Not sure why my android os usage would change after an update on the same charge?? Maybe someone can explain that to me

Things might still be settling in, but I've noticed that my fingerprint scanning times are much quicker and accurate, and the speed/fluidity of the entire OS seems to be much, much smoother. Since the device is still in its infancy, Samsung might have gone to work patching and smoothing out things, working out better resource management, etc. which might be reflected in the battery stats?

If you had hotspot enabled via changing the APN settings prior to this OTA, it will still be enabled after. The OTA leaves the option to edit the APN settings grayed out, but doesn't reset the values. I just confirmed that tethering is still working for me.

One of the first few days I had this phone I texted something one of those short text message codes and I got a reply back saying it potentially cost me money and accidentally I hit no instead of yes now everytime I try to use the text codes it gives me a failed message with a (425) error code. Does anyone know how to enable this again? Any help is much appreciated.

Well I did the Sprint online chat and they said they enabled all of the ones that were recently denied and told me to simply reboot my phone to fix it. I rebooted my phone and got 14 text messages (from every number I've ever texted) telling me I was unsubscribed and if I text them back the same error code (425) pops up and still doesn't work. Almost seems like what Sprint did was make it worse lol

Solution
There's a solution on youtube, but I can't post the exact link. The title is "Galaxy S7 Edge / Android Nougat 7.0 How To Fix Messages Failed to be sent (Premium SMS)" Though the title says S7 Edge, this solution worked for my non-Edge Galaxy S6 operating on the Nougat system

They are seeing this error because it's blocked in the phone, not on Sprint network.

For anyone who is having this issue currently, I'm using a Galaxy S7, and I went to settings > Apps > Special Access (located in the top right corner dropdown) > Use Premium Text Message Services
That allowed me to fix it

Here's another PSA: Sprint service in Austin, Texas (and surrounding areas) sucks!
I cant find anything new on my device at all.. There could be other things that could auto-install after the update via sprint ID app. ... I turned that of (with package disabler) as it kept installing bloatware immediately after I would uninstall it. That issue alone is worth the price of Package Disabler... or even installing the U ROM.
Anyone know how to tell if the bootloader has been updated?

I was hoping for some more functional AOD updates like the Note 7 has. At least we get the September security update.

So someone who's installed it in About Device what's the Android security patch level?

Yeah probably. To be honest I'm surprised we even got the September security update.
If I don't use the thing the battery life is pretty great, I can go almost 2 days on a weekend when I'm not using it much. But man, stream radio or music, it just eats it, which is weird because I'll eat more battery in an hour of streaming radio with the screen off than I will watching a show or movie off my SD card for 30 minutes.

I do regret getting the S7E as well. I feel conned by all the hype and early reviews of this phone. I must say that after this update has settled in, battery life is better finally on this release. Too little to late. The phone is still laggy and struggles to close open apps and will still lock up for a few seconds as well. I am confident that Samsung's horid touchwiz is to blame as it happers the phone.

I think the lag is more from the Sprint bloat than the Samsung bloat b/c on the 935U ROM, I practically don't have any lag. My GS7E is faster than my Nexus 5X on the latest 7.0 Nougat.

I've disabled the bloat, and have no performance issues, or significant lag, on my Edge. No problem closing open apps. You may want to look at what apps you have running in the background.
As far as new features, there's now an option to automatically set a default app or be prompted, and if you're prompted you can choose Always or Just Once.
