Haven't noticed any additional problems after the update. Find it a little bit more than coincidental it's a national news story about Android OS security & the update was security related.

Last time I spoke w/ AT&T tech support rep advised me to turn 4G/LTE off for improved performance & further stated he always had his 4G/LTE off. I said that's great, have one of the most sophisticated smartphones & don't use your carriers network. I had 4G/LTE turned off on my S3. Since I was...

According to an article I read last week Samsung is working with the U.S. carriers to push out 5.1 on the N4 (& I think it said the S5 & 6 too). I take that to mean Samsung wants 5.1 pushed out ASAP to those models. What if any effect that will have in how quickly the carriers actually release...

I can only comment on AT&T's plan. What I'm referring to is the cost w/ a 2 year contract which was previously $299 for N4 & $399 for N4 Edge. I'm not talking about their "Next" program where you do pay full price for the phone divided into 12, 18 or 24 monthly payments. The monthly service fee...

IIRC AT&T several days ago reduced the N4 to $99 & N4 Edge to $199. Also saw a thread about Sprint offering the N4 for $1 so I'm sure Verizon will be reducing their prices shortly.

The one feature the ProClip has that I prefer is that it attaches to the dash w/o adhesive whereas the Craigs Dock the way I have it mounted uses adhesive. You could also mount the Craigs Dock w/ a suction cup but for where I wanted my phone mounted that wasn't an option. The dock feature though...

I seriously considered the ProClip car mount but ended up purchasing the Craigs Docks at roughly twice the cost. Reasons were the ProClip is both phone & car specific meaning you have to replace one or the other or both pieces when you change phones/cars so despite the initial cost being less in...

I'm going to stick it out until M is released for the N4. If I don't see a big improvement it just may be hello iPhone time.

I said this on another thread, Samsung should offer a smaller & larger size Note. The original Note was a 5.2" screen IIRC, they could offer that and one around 6". IIRC about 80% of iPhone 6 sales are the smaller one so obviously there are a lot of people that don't want the larger screen size...

Re: Sprint service, Galaxy Note 4 - People I call suddenly can't hear me I would call Sprint. Because it happened with both phones it has to be Sprint's service.

There have only been a couple of Defender owners that posted about the paint scratching problem, the overwhelming majority of Defender owners that posted about it do not have any paint scratching myself included.

What you can do is open the Google Wallet & leave it open & use the fingerprint swipe lockscreen to protect yourself. To me it amounts to the same thing.

If you want an install without a halo the Zagg hdx (which is not glass but does offer a degree of shatterproof protection) is what you want. Zagg customer service told both myself & a fellow xda developers forum member their glass protector for the N4 will not install without a halo. If you...

Re: Please advise: Just got Note 4 last night with AT&T. Many issues. Lemon or ?? To me Google is doing the same thing w/ the M OS MS is w/ Windows 10, correcting the mistakes they made in Win 8 & introducing new features. When you say every OS has been a major improvement over the...

Re: Please advise: Just got Note 4 last night with AT&T. Many issues. Lemon or ?? "Lollipop hasn't had that many updates, because it doesn't need it." On that point I disagree with you. To me Google realizes Lollipoop is a failure and that's why M is attempting to address the shortcomings...
