Some questions

MX N4 1.1 (19th of April 2018) - 2nd public release version
...

Still a very good ROM and my daily driver that gave a new lease of life to my old Note 4. However has some questions and issues:

Air Command - still seems a problem. does't work. tried accessibility hacks, redownloading the addons and flashing it again, etc but doesn't work. It used to work on 1st version one time but after reflashing that had stopped on 1st version. So sometimes on reflashing rom and the file via addons it doesnt work. What's a good way to fix it?

FindMyMobile - It doesn't work. What else needs to flashed to make it work? S-Cloud files etc is it?

UltraPowerSaving mode - doesnt show anything with custom apps saved using the flashed from addons UPS mode apps manager

Can some one please let me know what are these files for?

I tried this overnight and it was a tough ride

For starters, there was no sign of magisk manager after boot, I had to install it separately (don't ask me why, and I tried flashing the ROM twice, but more on that in a sec), then I was like why the fudge are there 2 battery meters and 3, that's 3, damn clocks in the status bar??????????

Removing the battery and clock bloat ..again 3 damn clocks..why ?????..3Minit ****e needs to die (why is it in there?..supposed to a light/fast/bloat free ROM), resulted in the ROM failing to boot to desktop (cyclical systemui crashes), and so I reflashed it tried again, same result...if you remove the 3minit crap/bloat, from what is supposed to be a boost free ROM it will stop you getting to desktop (cyclical systemui crashes),....also not sure why there's ROM control in there, in a stock ROM, I'm not a 13 year old girl who needs to customise/theme the GUI.

For what is supposed to be a light/bloat free ROM it has too many issues for me, far easier for me to install a stock stock ROM, install magisk and get it working as it should, then install a root file explorer and remove the bloat apps myself, at least that way I can get to the desktop....

I am a novice, just joined. Not looking for many features but just a plain simple OS, with root and no extra softwares. This one sounds to be good one.

Sorry for my limited knowledge... but can anyone simply explain how to "Flash ROM in recovery"?

Thanks for this good job, first of all!

How to flash the BL and modem .tar file? Is it required to use Odin?

Thanks

The first thing you need is root on your phone.

Then you need to replace your basic recovery system on your phone by more advanced one.

You can access recovery by turning off your phone, then hold Volume up+Home button and turn on your phone. Then the recovery menu should load.

The basic one is just 3 or 4 options to choose from.

TWRP recovery is a lot of options you have to choose from. One of them is flashing/Installing custom roms

Read: https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-install-twrp/

!! first thing You do,after you install, is EFS backup!!

I managed to root and then flash the ROM

I am having following issues, if anyone or Andy can resolve:

1. - Status bar remains light and is not readable when any app having light color theme is opened (Ex: Twitter)
2. My phone is rebooting frequently. There was no issue in stock ROM
3. Is there any way I can further de-bloat it? Apps like ROM Updater, 3Mint Clock / Battery Saver, Link Share etc
4. Any themes available?
5. As it is already de-bloated -- Can I remove root now? How to do that?

Did you performed full wipe of your old rom?

Thats very important, and enter your recovery and make EFS backup before doing anything!!!

Select backup,inside deselect all the options Data/Bootloader etc and just leave EFS selected.

Clean flash is a must to avoid wierd bugs.
I m currently on this rom and it works flawlessly.


Edit: root is usefull for kernel auditor (an app to control the kernel) , and for Adaway app to get rid of all anoying ads

Edit2: for pure stock rooted Marshmallow 6.01 use this Rom.

To turn off the 3 clocks to 1 > Rom Control > Status Bar > turn off the clock.

Yes 3 minute/clock is actually no needed.

    Andycar N4 MX ROM​
    Only for Samsung Note 4 Snapdragon processor​
    Based on the latest N910GDTS1DQH2 from Samsung

    “If you respect your time as we do, come with us for something fast and lightweight.
    We even do it without losing stock TW ROMs functionality, enhancing it in a way!”:)
    Code:
    ***N4 MX ROM was tested by me before this release.
    But I hold no responsibility for the thermonuclear war, failed alarm sounds on your phone or any of your files lost. 
    The decision to make mods to your for is made by YOU, not me.

    Introduction
    I thought it might be good to demonstrate my concept, which is:

    • Odexed custom ROM (the first TW MM ROM of this kind, to my best knowledge)
    • Very fast initial load (no ART cache building, so less than one minute boot time)
    • Embedded signature spoofing (switchable)
    • SafenyNet Pass and Magisk out-of-the-box
    • Every system app updated, including the latest Google apps
    • Can be switched microG instead of gapps (with Contacts/Calendar sync)
    • Some Multi-dpi system apps included (SamsungCamera3, Contacts - thanks to HardRock83)
    • And finally it comes with RAM RC6 kernel permissive by Ram121 modified for permissive adb pre-installed

    Features
    What you SHOULD expect from this ROM:
    • Odexed custom MM (6.0.1) TW ROM – pre-optimized for speed + max. storage space.
    • Original WHITE theme enabled by default.
    • VoLTE works by default from CSC profiles in some countries.
    • FingerPrint register and unlocking FP works by default.
    • Knox 0x0 (magisk patch); Official SysScope Status; SafetyNet Pass
    • Android Pay will work out of the box
    • Switchable SystemUI styles due tothe ROM Manager for Note 4 by Robert CM.
    • Debloated fully: if you need some app, you can install it from Play Market
    • Gapps by default, can be switched to microG(for those users, who want minimal microG functionality)

    Installation instructions
    1. Check your bootloader and modem version. Best of all N910GDTS1DQH2 (or at least N910GDTU1DQL1) or N910FXXU1DQL2 are required (links below).
    2. Flash ROM in recovery. Magisk, busybox and Ram kernel will be installed automatically.
      I don't guarantee correct operation of this ROM with dirty flashing, but you can try it :)
    3. The ROM is Multi-CSC "out-of-the-box" due to the advanced install "DevBase" installation system by Alexndr
    4. CSC of your phone model will be flashed automatically (for details, see in the link)
    5. Reboot device. First boot usually takes about one minute.
    6. Set up clocks, potato battery, other status bar goodies in ROMControl app by Robert CM.
    7. (OPTIONAL) Open «Developement settings» (you can enable them in Settings- About device- tap 7 times on the ROM version).
    8. (OPTIONAL) Under «Developement settings», scroll to the very bottom, «signature spoofing» should be enabled.
    9. (OPTIONAL) (microG only)In MigroG settings, Device Registration and "Google Cloud Messaging" should be enabled
      (this can be switched off after Google Account setup, if required)
    10. Setup Google account normally. In some cases, wiping data of Play Store may be needed after Google Account was set.
    11. (OPTIONAL) Enable UnifieldNlp (Network Location providers) in GPS settings. (microG only)
    12. If you decide to switch to stock kernel, you can do it by flashing the stock kernel from one of the links below.

    FOR N910F flash the latest BQL2 bootloader
    (https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=746010030569951729)

    For N910T, N910W8 flash their respective datafixes and bootloaders

    Links for N910T datafix: https://mega.nz/#!qcdnySyB!55DemVnZNSXDGiDFA_Gv4Ftb7Ra1ba0u4_V60fn5mKo

    LINK : N910T, N910W, N910V & N910P datafix zip packages by louforgiveno <- these are meant to be used on S7 port ROMs, so you'd be better off editing build.prop manually to your N910(T/W/V/P) model.

    Guys, my apologize for not responding.
    Actually, my N910G started to give me those read emmc fail errors, which I thought were a clear sign of death. .. :(
    However, it seems that I was able to recover emmc chip without reballing it, thanks to some guy on YouTube.
    So I'm returning to the ROM development for Note 4 trltexx based on N910G....DRH1. It boots and I fixed S-view multi-dpi, as well as many other bugs. So do expect more.

    Guys, thanks for trying my ROM. I'm planning to work on update in mid-July, right after returning from summer vacation.
