-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.

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've never used it but there is a video calling button in the dialer. Probably only works with other people on t mobile with video calling enabled as well.

Will see how well it works.

The first thing I noticed after the update was improved fingerprint recognition. I've never had issues with my thumbs not reading, but it seemed my index fingers had to be perfectly aligned in order to unlock my phone. Now they work at off angles and much quicker.
I also promptly froze the Gear VR apps since I don't want to risk battery hits from something I won't use.
Anyone use stock messaging? I'm curious if the awful delay when trying to send a message is gone.

Just a question. With the app optimization do we still need greenery? Just wondering.

Weird thing I noticed was when when I factory reset after I took the update factory recovery was saying something about dfverify tree or something like that.

Interesting; I just had my Note5 unlocked and with my AT&T SIM in, I was able to download and install the update OTA.
Happy to see all known Stagefright vulnerabilities are now addressed.

SIM cards are used to determine OTAs for Nexus devices. But you are correct that they typically don't matter for other OEMs because each carrier gets a different model number assigned to their hardware variant.

Greenify? I'm wondering the same.

Wireless charging is being a lot more picky about where I place my phone on the pad after the update. I have to set it down a bit higher on the phone rather than centered like usual.

thats upsetting
i was having this problem prior to the update, was hoping for a fix
Samsung wireless charger is supper picky, third party ones, not so much

I'm already noticing improved battery life.
Unplugged for 3.5 hours, and in the marginal LTE/H area that I am for work, I would be down 20% or more with light usage. As of now, I'm at 89%.

Is anyone else experiencing issues with Text Messages? I'm using the stock messaging app (after I started having issues with EvolveSMS). I'll get the same text messages from someone 5 to 7 times, kind of getting annoying when my S2 vibrates and get's blown up with notifications.

Now if only we can get them to send the Marshmallow update for the Note 5 I'll be set lol. Seems like they are last for the Note 5 line, I think all the other carriers have it already.

Does the new Samsung Pay addition allow us to use the watch only for purchasing things, or do we need a connected Samsung device???
Thanks.
EDIT: I got the update but there's no sign of samsung pay that I can find on my watch.... S-Voice seems much better though!

Hope it is smartphone-free. Here in Korea I can pay with one of my debit cards and I dont need the phone at all. Weird that I do not have that update yet my 3G still in R730SKSU1AOKE...

Oh crap... I dont even have Samsung phone.

If this is the Sammy Pay update I've been dying for I'll be so happy.
That being said...I am checking and I dont see it or any articles online...
Any thoughts?

I agree s-voice seems to have better response. also no samsung pay on the watch, even though it is listed in the "whats new-added section".

Have noticed much difference (a little too early to evaluate battery life). But there is a little yellow icon at the 9 o'clock position if you have notifications. Anyone find a changelog?

Maybe an update to Samsung Pay is needed?

T-Mobile Updates

Samsung seems to be throwing their weight around like they should have been. I have seen more updates in less than a month than a lot of their device has seen in 2 years.

I assumed that, and there is other bug fixes or at least it seems to me. Bixby button responds better to press just as an example. I wish carriers and OEMs would give out better change logs.

I haven't seen any hiccups or anything like that so far. Been going through the settings and such to find any changes or see if certain bugs are fixed. For example the hide edge panel still doesn't work from the lock screen.
The theme is metallic dark

It's the freaking wireless carriers who are in collusion with our regulatory bodies. They are untouchable and provide only the bare minimum required service while charging maximum dollar for it.

Coming to a S8+ from HTC 10

I've decided to take the plunge and finally change my HTC 10. This I've had since launch day direct from HTC, before that I had the M8. I've rooted both and was constantly running Viper Roms with no real issues whatsoever.
How does the S8+ compare and what tips, trick and general advice would you give a new owner to follow 1st? Are there any things that I need to do to the phone as soon as it comes out the box. I love to fiddle with my phones but I don't think I'll be rooting this one as I want to be using Samsung Pay.
Any advice and tips will be gratefully received.
Thanks

Hello, never Root an Android phone but a good app for your S8+ ( check out the screenshot).

If you don't like Bixby download a package disabler and turn anything related to it off. I hate that button and am glad that it no longer works. Also do yourself a favor and get AdHell. Great adblocking program that actually has a package disabler within it.

Thanks for that info about package disabler. I have read a good few threads on the s8+ in general and this app rings a bell. Are there any tutorials on it and exactly what is safe and what is not to disable?
