note 3 lollipop rom

I wonder if anyone could port the note 3 lollipop rom onto the note 4,the note 3 looks to have all the features of the note 4 now and a lot more besides...all the stuff left off the note 4 that was on the note 3 would be there such as reader mode,page buddy,all the smart scroll stuff and the air view features,nicer music player and lots of other small touches such as animated video thumbnails ect...I like the body of the note 4 but the features of the the 4 are seriously lacking compared to the lollipop version of the note 3....

What's the use of porting a rom when it releases official within one month?

The useless request of the day...

Because it's a different rom the same features aren't on the note 4 lollipop there's more on the note 3 rom.

Why is it useless?if the note 3 lollipop has all the note 4 features and much more wouldn't it be better to have the better rom ?

Because many of the Note3 features were not useful for a large number of users, and second because that would make the ROM large and laggy. For the first time, Samsung made a lighter ROM with the Note4 that actually is quite snappy. I for one don't miss the Note3 ROMs at all. Not to mention that the porting part is not very easy to do (different platforms) and is worthless when Lollipop will come in January for Note4 anyway.

I've never had much lag with my note 3 and a phone like the note 4 should easily be able to handle the features they kept off but shouldn't people who actually want these features be given the option to have them and there is quite a few people who want them back plus if you don't don't want them nobody would be forcing you to install the rom anyway...

Who would be stupid enough to waste their time porting this to the note 4 when the note 4 version is due soon....

The note 4 version has less features than the note 3 lollipop version that's why...

Well, there's a time you should wait someone to do what you want, and there's time you must learn to do what you want.
This is the later, if no one gonna port note 3 rom for you, I think you should start to learn how to do it yourself. There are many tutorials in this site.
If you don't mind waiting til not known time, then just wait.
Just my opinion though.

Air view with fingers not just pen,quick glance,group play,Web page magnifier,headphone/page buddy,reader mode,voice controls of the music player and alarm,photo note,air gesture for music player,Animated video thumb nails plus more...if the note 3 and the s3 lollipop roms have these surely the note 4 should have it and the lag isn't an issue as the note 3 and s5 run lag free on lollipop I thought note 4 was an upgrade but not that much by the looks of things...

NOTE 4 VS S6....again

hey guys, i have a question, i am planning to get a new phone, the only real choices are the galaxy S6 and NOTE 4, i have a galaxy S4 right now, i like the S6 a lot, but i prefer something with a bigger screen and battery, the NOTE 4 on the other hand is cool too, but, it has the old TW, which i am already bored of, so the question is, will the NOTE 4 get the refreshed TW from the S6 soon or is it only after the NOTE 5 is released?? and what do you recommend?? THANKS

I think Note 4 will get Note 5 tw probably next year.Both phones fall in different category.You have to set your own priorities.Processor & gpu wise S6.Screen,Battery & S pen for Note 4

the thing is, because i am using an S4 right now the S6 doesnt feel much of an upgrade in terms of screen size, the NOTE 4 on the other hand feels really something special with that big screen....its a really tough one...in terms of performance the S6 has the edge but still its not that of a difference...basically the only reason to get the S6 is the new software....

Hi, I am glad you are looking into buying a new Samsung device! I think you should purchase the Galaxy S6. I own both devices, however the Galaxy S6 is simply just better. Even with a smaller battery pack, I was able to squeeze out 3-4 hrs more compared to the Galaxy Note 4. I used it to play some games, browse the web, and basic call functions. The S6 runs way faster compared to the Note 4 (device restart time, application launch time and application switching time). One last thing, S6 runs noticeably cooler than the Note 4 as well.
To answer your question, Samsung flagship devices will receive one TW version newer than the one that was released when the device was announced.

i do prefer bigger screen, but at the same time the S6 is faster in the day to day tasks, almost no lag, the problem with samsung phones is the updates, the NOTE 4 will get the S6 new ui next year, and lollipop for the NOTE 4 is not staple enough from what i heard, so its better to have something already optimized with lollipop unlike the NOTE 4....so if i get the NOTE 4 i will be stuck with KK for a while...and again its ui is not as fast/smooth as the S6....i have to make a sacrifice...

yes you can't have everything, but I guess you already know what you want to get... just enjoy it, and I know you want to upgrade after a few months when Note 5 or S7 arrives. Just like myself, look at my signature... I only had my S4 a few months back, and I bought a Note 3, then now a Note 4

the thing is i always use the phone for at least 18 months...so if i get an S6 or NOTE 4 there will be no going back for me....but from what i know you can use the device for two weeks then return it and get something else...so i am planning to get the S6 first...then in two weeks period i can change it to NOTE 4 if i feel that the screen is small....obviously the NOTE 5 will have the best of both worlds...but its coming only after 6-7 months...and thats a long time

I always die a little bit inside when I hear people moaning about performance. S6 is faster, yeah theoretically it is.. but practically it isn't. The software on the S6 is optimized better than the Note 4 lollipop update(Its just ****). And another thing is, multitasking works way better on a bigger screen than the S6. But its your choice. I think you're choosing wrong if you're going to judge on software.

the optimizations are the reason the S6 is faster...thats the trouble with samsung...once the phone is released they do not optimize the software for it...my S4 with lollipop is ****...lags..hangs...thats the trouble...the NOTE 4 will have the same issue...about the multitasking...i dont care that much...the only plus with the note 4 screen is the size...easier to read and better for watching movies....

No lag here on the Note 4

I was interested in the S6 but when I found out no microSD .... it was out of the picture.
I got the Note 4 on 4.4.4 and I have yet to see any lag .... if you think the Note 4 lags you must be very picky indeed.

believe me i am not the one that discovered the word "lag", many people said it lags, lets ignore the lag thing, i wanna ask you, do you prefer to have the latest and greatest UI or stick with the old one? the hall thing is, i have a galaxy S4 right now, and i have a rom that ported from the NOTE 4, so if i get the NOTE 4 i wont have the feeling of something new in terms of UI....the new TW on the S6 looks better than every other TW...its more refind, smooth animations...if you dont call it lag then you call it delay instead...its the same thing

Have u played with the S'Pen ? Did u like it? or was it just a novelty thing? If u really enjoyed using it, i think u should get the Note 4. the S6 screen is 5" approx. The Note4 is not far from 6". And true, the S6 is a beast to run, but it has to cuz its got the latest n greatest in it, tho u'll be paying a premium for it. Unlike the Note4, its a beast still, just a Yr behind the S6. Why not get the cheaper Note4, with its huge screen, then wait for the Note5? By then it will be King Phablet and be running true 64bit Lollipop optimized to the maxxx hehe. Naw, either is good

Jump from oneplus two?

I just got my on2 two days ago. And before that i was using oneplus one and i don't feel like this was a big upgrade that i hoped it would be . Sure performance is a bit better, and there's fingerprint sensor etc which i probably don't use much.
I've always hated the Samsung touchwiz and I've always stuck to the pure stock smartphones n4, htc one m8 GPE, Oneplus one, now oneplus two but now i wanna try something different. I can't afford a note 5 at the moment but i can buy a note 4.
So will it be a downgrade if i move from on2 to note 4 ?
Can note 4 compete with on2 in terms of performance(not the benchmarks... Real life usage) even after flashing kernels, roms etc?

Note 4 (on the latest 5.1.1 firmware) is pretty lag free.....but it wont be as good as stock android. On the other hand you get S-pen and better battery life !!

I would have said... Flash any stable cm rom on note 4 and you'll have all you want... But unfortunately for us.... We don't have great cm roms. They are extremely buggy. I think nexus p is what you should get.

I have used a lot of smartphones Android (Samsung, Sony, LG, HTC, Huawei & Motorola), Windows Phone (520, 920, 720 & 830) & iPhone (5s & 6s).
{ I trading in smartphones }
I believe that using Note 4 is special experience, after years of using so many smartphones I kept Note 4 with me (Stock Rom).
Note 4 provide best user experience for Android with great s-pen.

I was thinking about getting OP2 also after OPO few days ago. But went with brand new Note 4 Exynos model, flashed Ditto N5 Rom right away.. it flies, no lag whatsoever. I would get Note 4 over Note 5 any day. Display and camera are amazing, way better than the OP2. :laugh:

Forget the better battery life on exynos hardware (note 4 n910c) - it will give you around 4 hrs SOT. If you use encryption - even less (and you will suffer horrible lags). I like s-pen but as soon apple advertise it on their devices I'll switch to this platform as it is better optimized and just works better.

Note 4 or ONEPLUS TWO

Hi guys I'm currently use oneplus two temporary... Im from note 3(sold it). I love galaxy note series camera and specially display... So i need to know should i stick with ONEPLUS two or should i buy note 4?
I know n4 is 2014 and OP2 is 2015. Apart from internals im not satisfied with battery, charging and camera of OPT.... I need good development, good performance most importantly good battery life.... So what you think guys??? Please font suggest other phones... Just need good honest opinion. [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4]

I use n910c, love screen, battery, perfomance, spen, perfect phone, but i like stock os, before i have oneplus one, loved it, because has stock os and a lot custom roms. Thinking now about oneplus two

Around 4 months ago I've been invited to buy an oneplus2.. I bought it straight away thinking that it was much better than my note4. After all those months where I had both phones my primary device is still the note4. The main reason has been the lack of a sdcard slot on the oneplus2.. I do flash too many ROMs and I prefer to do it clean, so copying all my music and important files every time bothered me a lot.
I had no problem with battery life with both phones... Regarding the note4 camera is good with TW ROMs but not so good with cm based ROMs (yet). Note4 has good development, but the oneplus2 is getting better and better every day.
I personally don't like the samsung stock touchwiz, but if you don't mind it you may be ok buying the N910C (exynos) version.. if not go for the N910F (snapdragon) that has more development (if I'm not wrong).
The note4 is a really good phone.. probably the best I ever owned.. but I would think twice before buying a 2 years old phone... just my opinion. You probably won't regret if you buy it, but it is always a 2 years old phone.. so have a look here at our development section and do some research and make your decision.
In the end I can just tell you, from my personal experience, that the note4 (N910F) is an amazing device.
Cheers

stay with your oneplus 2 and wait the note 6 if u can (mainly due 2 sd-card support ) and u will feel much of difference

Yeah, that's what I would recommend. However if you want a removable battery and a microSDCard slot then I recommend getting the Note 4. As that is probably the best phone of 2014!

Im using both now, the op 2 is better in camera and definitely performNce ehen you install the right software, the note 4 just has a better display and the pen ofc i installed cm based rom cuz tw lagged like ****, and still no official mm hahaha, and about sd card i dont care, both got enough for thr average user so i would stay on op2 and wait for op3 or note 6

You are kidding right? The OP2 has crappy camera sensor when compared to the Note 4 16MP ISOCELL sensor.

Nope, Pictures with Oneplus camera are even a bit better, only the speed of taking photos are better with the note 4, its just my opinion; im on Oxygenos 3.0 and on note 4 on TW 6.0.1 now

I've stayed off CM as the camera was nowhere near as good as the TouchWiz camera when I ran it for a few weeks.
Aftermarket camera apps couldn't compete with the TW camera either.

Buy a S5 now?

Hy guys, I have an iPhone 5S and I want to return to Android. I can trade my 5S with an Galaxy S5 or Galaxy Note 3. I know hardware of both devices, but which is the best for performance, gaming, battery life? I want to mod the phone when i pick up it, so I want to install on S5 or Note 3 a rom that can port UI and apps of S7/Note4-5 on the device. So, help me.
Galaxy S5 pro: better display, better camera, IP67 certificate, fingerprint, S-health with cardio, Snapdragon 801 > Snapdragon 800
Galaxy Note 3: S-Pen, display 5.7inch (I love big display), better sound, better multitasking (3GB ram), and A LOT OF ROM, there are very fantastic porting of galaxy s7, note 5 and more..
So, Galaxy S5 or Note 3?

Whats your budget? I would skip the note 3, thats way old now. S5 is still good, but if you have budget then note 4 would be a better option. Good luck.

It's just touchwiz. I dont understand. You can have touchwiz and a icon pack
