    Got the 5.1.1 update last night!

    I also got it last night. Minor changes but I don't really see any noticeable differences except for that my ram went from 3gb to 2.71 gb and they installed some app called Smart Manager through the update. Also, they took away a feature I liked. On some actions you would get the action of...

    Note 4 lollipop sucks

    Is there a setting I can play around with to not have notifications come on the lock screen and just have them show up in the notifications like with Kitkat? Thanks. I don't like the new notifications systems either and turning them off completely is not something I wanna do either.

    Verizon Lollipop Problems anyone?

    I don't wanna make a new thread for this but I am having a weird problem after the update. Usually in the texting app at midnight it will indicate that the date has changed. So for example at exactly 12 am it will insert a date stamp in the convo. Since the update it changes the date stamp at...

    Can't get OK Google to work anywhere

    Thanks for this however I still can't get it to work from a locked screen. At least it works now whenever the phone is being used and I don't have to be on the home page for it to work.

    Note 4 - OS Update - Canada

    True....but the font for the stock text messaging app has always changed as well. I was looking at some old screenshots of my convos and now the text is darker and thicker.

    Note 4 - OS Update - Canada

    I checked for updates and downloaded this update too. Hopefully it doesn't screw up the phone. Edit: Are there any visible changes from this update in terms of options or the look? Thanks. Second Edit: After the update I don't see any visible changes except that the text messaging font is...

    Google maps is extremely laggy on my note 4

    I was just gonna say, I haven't updated Google Maps in a while. Most of the reviews left behind complain about features being taken away or the app becoming worse. I mostly use Waze and Here now anyway since Google Maps doesn't allow you to navigate without a set destination which ironically I...

    Note 4 Problems (Camera and Restarting)

    No, not yet. For those interested this is what the problem looks like even though the video is for Note 3, this is what I am experiencing on the Note 4: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHzJzV3z_Ow

    Home Screen Icons get weird

    Yes, but my S2 was for more laggy and slower than the Note 4. I have only had the missing icon problem with this phone and the main problem has been the camera of the phone being blank every 2-3 days. Unless I restart the phone the camera doesn't work. That's the one really pissing me off lol.

    Home Screen Icons get weird

    From settings, go to storage and clear cache there. I am not sure if this is some full-proof solution but it has worked for me. Other than that, seems to be a common bug and all you can do is really restart the phone when you end up with a missing icon.

    Note 4 Problems (Camera and Restarting)

    Bump since the camera problem reappeared again. Turned the camera on and it was blank. Restarted the phone and it's fine now. Very annoying. Any help? Thanks. Will reformatting the phone help?

    Do you use cleaners such as du Booster or ccleaner

    I use clean master but honestly my phone hasn't lagged much even when I have multiple apps open. I was dreading the infamous touchwiz lag upgrading from my S2 to Note 4 (the S2 was horrible for the lag BTW), the phone has only lagged on me a couple of times in the two months I have had it and...

    Home Screen Icons get weird

    I believe this is a common issue with Note 4. I have had the same problem. Usually before restarting the phone I clear the cache and it seems to be fine. The only thing to do is simply restart when an icon is missing. Love android/my note 4 but don't like these little bugs.

    Free Netflix for one year from Samsung with purchase of Note 4

    Lol all these companies only have promotions for new customers. Always better to be a "new customer" than an existing loyal customer.

    battery life

    So it's better to charge it at 50% then say 30% because you are charging it for a less amount of time? But then you may have to charge it more often, no?
