    Kit Kat gave life back to my Note 4. I didn't like Lollipop

    I only had one major issue with upgrade to lollipop: I couldn't use my note 4 as a hotspot. Resolved once I reset to factory settings which I didn't do after upgrade. I didn't realize a restart was not the sane as a factory reset. No problems now. No lag and battery is fine. Phone feels snappier...

    Note 4 lollipop sucks

    The cosmetic changes with lollipop will take some getting used to I suppose. I was happy with KitKat but was itching for something new. Installed lollipop today and so far so good. Like the OP I didn't like the new lock screen notifications so turned them off. I'm finding overall performance to...

    Fix for Note 4 Camera Focus Problem

    I too noticed that metering modes is not available though with HDR on. I had to turn off HDR to try matrix and spot modes. All in all I prefer HDR. Posted via the Android Central App

    Music on note 4

    I had the same problem. 128gb SD card installed, transferred music over to card but Google play and music app didn't see it. Had to create a folder named Samsung. Then within that folder, another named music. Worked like a charm. Did the same thing for movies. Found this solution from another...

    Battery myths. It is OK to leave your phone plugged in over night.

    I'm not going to dispute the points you've posted and really appreciate the time you've spent to help others, but the one time I did leave my note 4 connected to the fast charger overnight I got a notification to disconnect the phone...something to the effect of "battery at 100% disconnect from...

    Why is my Note 4 battery draining so quickly?

    Re: Note 4-Verizon-Battery Issue I couldn't agree more. Sure, we all want great battery life without the worry of running out of power, but this is a mobile device with a big screen. Best battery life for me has not been with Android since both m7 HTC one and the note 4 have bigger screens...

    How do you carry your Galaxy Note 4 "phablet"?

    Same for me when I'm indoors. Outside, my winter jacket has a convenient zipped front pocket top left for it. Posted via the Android Central App

    Buying a Note 4 N910A off EBAY.

    I got mine off eBay. It was an international (read Chinese) version so not carrier branded though. Read the fine print. These could be returned items and they call them "new-other" which are typically refurbished by the manufacturer or third party. There may be risk that these are clones/fakes...

    Samsung galaxy note 4 16gb lte duos n9100

    I have the same phone and have been using it in Canada with two Sims without issue. In settings, I set language to English (US) so I'm guessing you can do the same with Swedish, Norwegian, etc. If the Samsung keyboard doesn't have the special letters, then perhaps a third party keyboard app...

    Device or memory card??

    Thanks for this bit of info. I keep music and videos on my SD card. Haven't captured many photos yet but will likely store on card as well. The games I play rarely also stored there. Will see if there is any noticible performance issues with the games when I play. Posted via the Android Central App

    is rooting worth it

    I'm considering rooting, but only after lollipop update. I don't mind the bloat (not pressing for space with 128gb card) but would like to use file explorer to easily navigate to and shift/erase files as needed. Posted via the Android Central App

    I have a note 4 dual sim. International unlocked version. I use a data plan for tablet in the main slot and pay-as-you-go phone plan in the other. No regrets leaving apple and htc. Posted via the Android Central App
