My Note has just been upgraded to 4.1.1 by OTA. After being eager to discover the new features, i realised that All the apps which worked well and fast before now have been slowly. The in-stock internet is not smooth in touch and flip any longer and usually being lag. Other apps take long time to start and respond.. Please tell me what happened with my note and should i do now to improve it? Or i must downgrade to the 4.0 ?
Thanks

Sorry for my dull, but what is wiping? I did not do any thing strange before the system alerted me to upgrade.
Factory reset after backing up apps and data or take Note to a Samsung service centre .
jje
Its was an OTA and not installed using ODIN so there was no need to wipe.
Unfortunately thats is the case with most of the OTA give it a few days things get a little better

I am starting this thread so us Nordic users can discuss anything about the latest update 4.4 once it is out.
Hopefully we will see it soon!
Been waiting way too long

No - And it´s getting a bit frustrating i might add.
Check out Sammobile - It has become increasingly & annoyingly difficult to swing a dead cat around you without hitting obscure carrier specific KitKat updates left & right.
But 5 entire nordic countries?? Ohh - No.
We ought to contact Amnesty International and get "Update With holding" registered as an official form of torture. :silly:
At the very least it might have been usefull as an "Improved interrogation technique" at Guantanamo! :crying:

Elo.
I personally don't see any point in upgrading to KitKat as per now as it messes up more stuff than it actually "fix". NO move to SDcard support, battery drain for no apparent reason, locked bootloader and so on.
Correct me if I am wrong...
Seems like we are forgotten by sammy. Kitkat came in january and now 3 months later still nothing. Out last update was in december. lol.
I dont really need kitkat, but i need samsung to support my phone and now its been a lot of new fw's and nothing to NEE...
I just run the Polish version, works fine, except it's a battery hog.
i'm wondering why it takes 3-4 month to roll-out update for all regions !!!
really why ?

We're talking about 1/4 of a YEAR! Weird since the fw is already done and you can install it from other region and everything works.

Just did upgrade via OTA. Now running N9005XXUENC2. Build number KOT49H.N9005XXUENC2. Kernel 3.4.0-636608.
As expected not much have changed. Didn't do factory reset yet, i guess that is recommended? How about all the settings and saved games etc, those should be backed up?

You can try going without a reset - if there are no problems then you have no need to wipe the phone. If you have issues or sudden battery drain or something then do a reset. Apps and saved games can be backed up with Titanium Backup if you are rooted or I use Helium which works without root. Not sure if it saves settings - I try to never restore settings if I go to a different version so I haven't tested this.
I'm gonna do a factory reset 3 times as I did after the MJ7 disaster, it really helped with my battery life (not alot but a little).
I could usually squeeze out 6,7 hours of screen time on 10% this pales in comparison to MJ3 but I'll write here once I have some results.

KitKat photo editor
Just updated to 4.4.2 this morning and was disappointed that the Nexus photo editor wasn't in this update. Not sure if this has been discussed somewhere but is there a way to "easily" get it on my phone without rooting or anything?
Like in the topic.
In call volume is the main concern.
Thanks
I'm still on KitKat... refused the Lollipop update. No issues with in call volume... definitely loud enough.
Same here. Never was a fan of lollipop's look. Still snappy since i got it first few weeks it came out. Battery still strong. No probs with in call volume either. Notification volume is louder from what i read also.
As it turns out, speed difference and real world performance is nil if any. Looking back, kk may be the windows xp version of android, light and quick vs heavier fancier more features of newer versions to come.
Check it out!

In call volume is fine for me but using the speakers for music I find lacklustre.

Hi guys, just bought a 6653, i'am about to root it via firmware downgrade, and wonder, after root, should i flash :
the last KK 4.4 23.0.1.A.5.77
OR GO FOR
the last LP 5.1.1 23.4.A.0.546
Does it really worth upgrading to 5.1.1?
Thanks for your answers, cheers
Iam also still on rooted KK, runs perfectly with Greenify and Amplify. Up to 8h DOT with 70% Brightness on 3 Days.
Never change a running System.

I downgraded after trying lollipop. My reception is 100% worse at home and also got the mobile radio active bug when out and about on data on both 5.0.2 and 5.1.1. Shame, because otherwise the OS is really slick and smooth. Oh well.

Lollipop was worse. I tried fullwipe installation of 5.1.1 but still had those issues mentioned. When I downgraded I had an old TWRP backup so I just deleted everything but storage in TWRP and restored the backup and it seems to be fine for me. Though flashing an official FTF 4.4.4 might be better to just make sure but I'm a bit too lazy for that right now lol.
Im on 4.4.4
Love it. But I would like to try 5.1.1 on my D6616... Can't find a pre_rooted flashable.zip though.

I just downgrade my Z3 from LP 5.1.1 to KK 4.4.4. Yes, use that method from that link. But be extra cautious while using the Flashtool to downgrade to KK 4.4.4. REMEMBER to WIPE App Info, Cache and User Data at the top right of Flashtool. I forgot about it and my phone went to Bootloop problem. Had a hard time on figuring out on how to stop the bootloop. If anyone forget about it and went to bootloop, just totally switch off the Z3 by pressing power + up vol together. Then run Flashtool again. This time round don't mind about USB Debugging etc cause you cant go in anyway.
Almost 3 weeks on Kitkat 23.0.1..5.77
Its very fast and smooth, wonder if LP would give me any improvement (or disadvantage) ?
I'm also back on KK after 5.0 and 5.1 stints. I had all the classic problems associated with Lollipop whereas KK is rock solid.

Okay, like how did you get to that point, and how can I do the same?
Is there any real advantage to running MM instead of LP?
I'd probably lose the ability to install ViPER4Android if I went to MM and that would not be good, so there would have to be solid advantages to having MM.

Doze to give you better battery management , a lot of apps now are only compatible with lollipop and up.
But its your choice if you are happy with JB you can stick with it.

Not JB, I have LP. See my signature.

Hello, I am thinking of getting this phone but I'm worried about not being able to update to 6.0. I currently have the OnePlus One and I'm on 6.0 and I love all the new features. To get M working on this do I have to simply, unlock the bootloader, root the phone, install custom recovery (TWRP) and then download the rom + gapps to make it work? That is the standard process for other phones, I just want to make sure I won't have any issues before I buy the phone.
Thanks for your help in advance.

i do B326 to B511 all thing are good but i see 2 notes:
1 - i don't find my explorer internet .
2- i don't find my loupe.
If you want to try MM on Mate 7, you start with a standard phone. Stock recovery etc. Just drop the genuine Huawei update or stock ROM into the dload folder on SD card and start update from the OS running normally. Can also start update in recovery mode.
Have to be very careful to only use an update or ROM that is compatible though. If you use the wrong one it bricks the OS. I think differences in CUST folder, maybe partition sizes and such.

I would recommend getting the phone, but still sticking with the OP1 for a while, as you will definitely not appreciate EMUI. There's this really awesome guy working on getting Cyanogenmod 13 running on the device. He just made a massive breakthrough with getting GPU drivers running, so it can be anything from a few more days to weeks before we have a stable-enough build.
Check out his thread for more details and updates.
After so long of waiting things are looking up for the U version of Nougat.
I've been hawking these Samsung forums for a while where everyone is waiting for Nougat on the G935U and there were people on Samsung's staff who have been trying to get it for months now. Anyways, today people are finally reporting getting the Nougat update on their unlocked S7 Edges.

using unlocked version , so no idea about this
Flashed this 3 days ago-- Battery life is incredible and it's VERY fast.
*Native hotspot works
*Haven't tried video calling yet, so can't confirm
*HD calling works
*No extra icons in the status bar (ie. VoLTE, etc)
I tried flashing the engineering bootloader to try rooting, but it caused a bootloop. I'm going to try again after a clean wipe.

I kinda wish this was available for the non edge version but I guess I'm just gonna have to wait
How did you activate HD calling? Also is this still able to use Wi-Fi calling or does anyone know of an app that will enable that feature?
I noticed that I can't talk on the phone and use LTE data at the same time...i wanted the firmware for lack of bloat and the stock device manager that verizon took away...i can live without wifi calling but is there a setting I'm missing to activate talking on the phone and simultaneous use of data?
who is know the nougat u frim for flat download adress？ i'm look for so long time:crying:
why flat firmware didn't publish with edge at same time? i am always wait it.

does verizon VOLTE (advanced calling) work on the U rom? I just got a G935A phone and want to flash U (or V) variant for my Verizon sim.
I wanted to mention I flashed onto 935V today, working great. Seems snappier. I need to pop another sim though and confirm if LTE works or not. I wonder if this unlocks the other channels (Basebands) If it does, then we have a real way of "unlocking" 935V to use with other carriers or roam.
I'm now on Verizon Nougat. Can I flash directly to G935U with this file? From other sources it seems we have to flash to 6.0 first and then this one to 7.0.
