Known Note 4 issues?

[Tkbredx]

Music playback seems to occasionally pause/hiccup.

One known issue that there is a thread for is the calculator speaks the numbers as you enter them even when the setting is for it not to speak.

Mine doesn't do that.

Okay where do I began. AT&T Note 4 I'm on my 2nd one in less than 72hrs. Unable to send or receive Bluetooth from or to any phone. Bluetooth connectivity in car disconnects spontaneously by itself, when music is played (music player. Pandora etc) constant skips during songs. During a call you hear yourself speaking twice. NFC/SBeam unable to send or connect to S4 or Note 3 and any other phone that has this feature, and this is with the 1st Note 4 I got Monday Which has been factory reset etc over 10 times and no luck also took it to AT&T support center waste of a drive. Now the 2nd one Seemed to be working fine no issues until my Wi-Fi started disconnecting itself and no available Wi-Fi although I have several showing up on my Note 3 and S4 not to mention I'm sitting in my home which has Great Wi-Fi. Will continue to use both simultaneously to see if things get better.

I had this same issue with bluetooth on my Note 2 (running a Note 3 Rom). It was random, and for me a reboot always solved it. Seemed to be better after a factory reset, so I wonder if it was an app I was using that was causing it.

I have seen a number of posts regarding the amoled display sometimes being inconsistent in color from one side of the screen to the other. I saw this myself on a display unit at Best Buy. Since the new display is undoubtedly the biggest improvement in the Note this year, this production problem is particularly disturbing if you are not picking up and checking out the phone at a store. In any case, you can exchange a defective phone, but doing it by mail is a pain.

More of a Youtube issue, but the Youtube app doesn't let you see video at more than 1080p.

This was a purposeful (don't know why) decision of Youtube. Don't blame the Note 4 for it.

Only a Tmobile issue I believe.

I know there are threads on which SD card to get. But, for those of us using ours from our previous Note 3, can we just pop it into the Note 4 or does it need to be reformatted? It seems there would be possibly less issues by starting out clean and just moving necessary stuff back to the card after a format. But, then again, I don't want to wait time unnecessarily if it's not required.

I seem to get a lot more dropped calls. Yesterday, I tried to call someone & couldn't hold a conversation due to breaking up (called a landline, so it wasn't her phone). I also hear myself echoing during some conversations. And I really miss my voice activated alarm. I take pills 3 times a day, it was so much easier to say stop to shut it off. (any apps have an alarm like this? ) Otherwise, since I use the phone for everything I do, I'm loving it!

I had this issue with my Note 2 and a Sandisk microsd. I switched to a Samsung microsd this time around.

The bottom half of my screen is unresponsive every once in awhile and I have to reboot. I put the S-View cover on 2 days ago. Anyone else seen this?

I'm having the same WiFi issue.

Very disappointed so far. I averaged 3 dropped calls a month at most with the Note 3, I have already had 9 dropped calls in the first 4 days. The external speaker is garbage, I am getting a lot of crackling sounds from it. People on the other end of my calls can't hear me talk as well. Other then that, the screen is great!!!!! May be switching to the dark side after this mess!

 

[bignick2135]

Also, random apps open when I don't even touch the screen. Really weird!

Picked up my Note 4 on the 17th from AT&T. I love it and wish AT&T didn't remove the ear buds. I used Google Maps today and lost the GPS connection 3 times on a 30 minute drive, some trees but no tall buildings.

The volume indicator moves from right to left when increasing the volume; this is different but tolerable and not sure if this is Samsung or KitKat.

I setup an appointment and the calendar is OK until you enter a start date. The days are backwards.
Screens hoots included

Another thing I've noticed, the smart stay icon in the notification bar just disappears even when the setting is on. I've had all 4 Notes the day they came out and the small things on the Note 4 are very noticeable. Maybe an update or two will help with the Glitches. I've never known a phone/software to be completely perfect. Time will tell.
