[Q] Phone randomly turns off

Has anyone's Ace randomly shut off? Like, the other day, I woke up and found my phone off (while charging) and now (while charging as well) I was using it, locked it and put it on the table to find the green battery icon it shows when the phone is off and charging.
Does anyone know whats going on? I'm not using any scripts or mods. Just Beats and Ram Manager set on normal balanced. Think its the difference in governors? I have a charging profile of 844 max performance and a normal profile of 806 ondemand.
Doubt it, but who knows.

It's the cpu... Even on my ace when I used setcpu and made some profiles the phone became very unstable instead of working more smoothly than before it became unstable
Ultimately I had to delete it and for cpu I use the cm settings

Kk, took off the performance charging profile. Now the phone is running completely ondemand. I'll see if the problem keeps happening.
I think it is though because I've had this problem before way before I knew about CPU settings. But whatever, doesn't hurt to try xD

This was happening to my wife's S2 as well and what we did was put a piece of paper behind the battery and the case to put pressure on the battery so it would stay in place. Seems to be a quick fix.

I had the similar problem when I got the phone brand new. My phone was restarting now and then. Also due to bad battery readings I thought, my battery was defected. So I got replaced in Service Centre. Took me 2 hours to fight with them and finally I won a replacement battery with an old one.
I'm saying this in your randomly turns off thread, because after replacement of battery, My phone never restarted. So This could be a battery problem too.
Another suspicion can be your CPU. Dude, Overclocking can reduce your CPU life span. Not every hardware gives the same performance as same clock. In another words, you can't say your overclocked CPU will ran flawlessly, because your friend's overclocked CPU ran 10 months without problems. I always say this, If you want to stay out of trouble of hardware problems, DO NOT OVERCLOCK CPU. You might are seeing it as "just" 44Mhz over 800Mhz. But, also you don't know whats your CPUs facing. Can you?
PS: On Performance CPU governor uses the MAX CPU clock all the time, even when its idle.

my phone randomly shuts off if i overclock beyond 825 mhz, irrespective of the rom. maybe thats whats happpening?

Let me tell you my story. My ace also turned randomly off and I didn't know what to do.
I did a research and found out that it can (CAN, not surely) be something with the wifi. Go to settings wifi settings then press menu advanced settings and then put to never.
I did it a while ago and I think it works for now.

[Q] FireKat v7 performance

I saw a picture of how fast a note 3's benchmarks did on fireKat v7, which was at 43312 but mine is only at 41814. how can i improve this?
can anyone help me? what about cpu managing? any good app and how?

Setcpu is a great app for that. Set it to interactive with row.. Also you can't go off of that as everyone will get different results. A lot sure to you have different apps then the others. Maybe more as well.. They also might have done other stuff removed or frozen... All varies

Snapdragon 805's dream with a stock kernel. Even with a custom kernel, Exynos will always stomp.
What carrier are you running your international variant on?
Great score by the way! Best I've seen. Well of course, exynos lol.

49,863 on STOCK KERNEL running FireKatv2 ROM!!!
Almost 50K on STOCK Kernel!!!!

Anyone break 49K on stock kernel? State your ROM you're using too...
This is all for fun, but has anyone hit 49K on the stock kernel?
I've tested all the available ROM's on the other N4 in my household and none has has hit 49K except, FireKatv2.
Show me! :good::good:

100% Stock rom and Stock kernel no root
I dont get it. I have been on a quest to make my phone better since the note 2. I always hit XDA and tinker and learn as much as I can but sometimes I see scores and I see people really excited about the "speed increase and battery life improvements with new roms etc, and I dont get it because for example this is my score without any work on the phone at all. My battery life is about 7.5 hours screen time with gps on and sync on all the time. Screen set to auto. Dont get me wrong I am a lover of modding and hate all the bs that carriers and sammy puts on the phones I am here because I love to work on my phone but I see no real difference right now even maybe I slow the phone down if I do anything to it. Whats going on? I remember on my note 3 I was able to see some improvement on my benchmarks over stock (not by much) and a little better battery life but again not a huge difference. Also I thought I should mention that on echoe rom I was able to score 24 to 25,000 on quadrant clocked at 2.2 ALL THE TIME I once even scored 27,000 when I was overclocked at 2.5. How come I never break 26,000 even tho I am clocked at 2.7 now. Also why am I scoring so high over modded phones

That's an excellent score! Well in your case it just proves that the stock software isn't terrible. It works....Simple as that. As for the modded peeps with custom ROM's, a lot of them have so much crap on there apps wise and have it heavily tweaked with wanam/xposed where it is really weighing down their phones.
I also have a theory about the CPU's in that they are not all created equal. Remember with the Note 3's there was a prompt in the dialer where you could go to a secret menu to see what type of processor you had. I think it was from 0-7 or something and the closer the number was to 7 meant you had a more efficient CPU, but not friendly / "as tolerant" to overclock as oppose to someone with a number closer to "0" which meant that it was more power hungry and more tolerant to over clocking. If you search for it you'll find what I'm talking about. ...
Anyway, I think we have the same thing going on here....where some of us just happen to have stronger CPU's. It's just like car engines.....not all are the same as every one of them have their own unique character. I remember when I got my AMG C Class and my buddy had the same one but a year newer. He used to smoke me (stock) where I had intake/exhaust/flashed chip. I just didn't get it. Sometimes you just end up with a [email protected]$$ CPU coming from a good batch LOL.
Another example is microSD cards...you can buy the same brand / type and all, but will always have different results. My Samsung 64GB PRO is faster than my other Samsung 64GB Pro that I have in another N4. Same phone, same chip...different speeds.
You have an awesome piece. Great score! I can't wait to break 50K's on a stock kernel!

50,429! FireKatv2 (Stock Kernel) No CPU app. Bone stock.
Finally did it! Woke up, ran it....bam! As stated above this is with FireKatv2, Stock Kernel, Bone Stock and No App. I cleaned up a lot of my apps and my set up is real clean and simple. This is crazy....maybe I'm dreaming right now as I just woke up. No wait, I am awake. :victory:
For fun...enjoy.

How and Why I started liking my note

Hi,
So I got my note4 about a month ago and I can def say that I wasn't too happy after I got it.
It was sluggish(coming from Nexus5) , didn't last too much and frankly overall it didn't feel like the premium device I wanted to get after spending all my money on it. Started thinking that I should of gotten instead maybe the Iphone 6, LG3 or Nexus 6.
However after a few tweaks my phone has started to perform not less then excellent. There's no more lag(not even a bit in the interface/apps or anything..there's non including on the recent apps tab) and the battery life literally lasts for at least a day and a half as it supposed to be(usually get 5 SOT, guess more if I would of turned the brightness down). In general what I've done was to(or what I'm doing when I install a new ROM):
- disable DVFS through wanam and exposed
- install nova launcher
- debloat the device completely of unnecessary apps (pesonally i've used app master, great app to easily get rid of system app)
-install a custom kernel and Underclock and Undervolt- this is an important note: we don't really need a clock speed of 2.7 for anything else but benchmarks. it is a bit ridiculous when you understand how it works. so yeah, when I benchmark I OC to 2.8 put performance governor and get my 50K on antutu but on your day to day usage there is really no need, and in fact no lag -at all- when you underclock to something like 1.7 for example. why on earth do some people OC to 2.8 when they use fb most of the time? and if its for games, well I ran some intensive games and still didn't had any lag whatsoever.
- betterbatterystats & greenify : the ultimate combination - check whats your alarms.. and just disable them. on an average night I think I lose about maybe 2% of battery if not less. when my phone deep sleeps, it sleeps like a charm(and exposed modul ''amplify'' is a great addition too).
- disabled almost all of the apps that were booting up on startup, used exposed module boot manager to do it.
I hope this input of my personal experience will help anyone there that feels like I felt when I bought the phone. Other then that, you are more then welcomed to input your own tweaks and how you got the phone to react like you want it to

mine is not rooted, but its superfast, no lags, and the battery is amazingly good

I've been undecided between the note and nexus 6, mainly due to the reported lag on the note 4. This has given me a bit more confidence to go with the note

the last time i used samsung when i first bought the first galaxy tab way back 2011! believe me that thing was the worst ever gadget i ever bought!
i told myself not to buy any samsung tablet and phones! after hearing horrible stories about touchwiz from all galaxy s series. Untill i have decided to go back to samsung through the galaxy note 4!!!
this monster made me a samsung believer again, i never experienced any statter or lag, this thing is a monster! fast and responsive, lots of useful features
like the multi window or the multitasking, s pen features and not to forget the crystal clear picture quality of the camera.
and mind you! the touchwiz launcher is more faster than the 3rd party launcher ive ever used!!!
and lastly you can disable those preinstalled apps!

Is your model the snap or exynos?

What's this DVFS and what Kernel did you install?

SD, but it really doesn't matter. when both handsets get almost 50k on antutu both of them will obv perform well

flashed AEL 4.3 and Echo rom. would advise you to google regarding Samsungs DVFS as of course I'm not responsible to anything that you are doing with your device and you should know what you are doing

Mine's a SD version too, and as tal123 I run Echo rom on ael 4.3 kernel. However, I have not done any of the other tweaks tal has and mine is as smooth as they get. It kinda sad though tha sammy ships a premium phone with software that makes lag and stutter. Installing echo/ael made the day for me. It was ok on stock but this is heaven.

[Q] Performance Issues

I purchased a new prepaid T-Mobile Note 4 from BestBuy few days ago. Today I have noticed that when I run benchmarks, I am getting very low scores. On Antutu, I am only getting around 26000, but sometimes I am getting the normal scores i.e, 46k. Even when running other benchmark applications, I noticed that I was getting only around half scores but sometimes I am getting normal scores.
I don't understand this strange behaviour. Is my phone defective ? Should I return it ?
P.S: I have not rooted this phone. I tried a factory reset, and there is no power saving mode turned on.

Does the phone feel slow? Is it heating up under normal use?
Sent from my SM-N910T using XDA Premium HD app

The phone is OK and gets heated up at times. Yesterday I played MC5 for about 15mins it was okay,but sometimes while running benchmarks it gets heated up

Can someone help me my phone feels absolutely normal but my benchmark scores are not that good.... Really?
Stop benchmarking phones I keep telling people that.. Not everyone phone will perform the same as long as it feels nice and snappy you should be all set

Some people have loaded hundreds of apps on to their phones, which can affect performance.
Do you have a lot of apps? How's your free space?
I wouldn't really rely on benchmarks as the sole indicator of performance. That being said, is the phone laggy? You said it performs "OK" but one person's idea of OK can be quite different than the next persons idea of it.
Also, where did you purchase the phone from? There's quite a few fake Note 4's floating around. If you purchased it through your carrier, go ahead and request a swap.

Do you have on power saver mode?

Best buy sells note4 for TMOBILE? Hmmmm by me they don't support any TMOBILE.
BAD ASS NOTE 4 + BAD ASS GEAR S

I know benchmarks are not an indication of performance, but atleast there should be some consistency, right ? Sometimes, I get normal scores similar to other Note 4 devices as expected. But sometime I get HALF the scores or much less than older devices, something which is not expected out of this device. So I doubt is there anything wrong my particular unit ?

Yes they are selling a prepaid No contract Note 4 locked to T-Mobile network. I got it for 699. Now it is out of stock though ! And yeah, it is indeed a bad ass PHONE !!

Majority of benchmarks put so much load on processor that after few minutes it heats up, overheat protection kicks in and slows down cpu. If you run few benchmarks one after each other then phone has no time to cool off. There is some roms available on xda which modifies how long you can run on full speed and higher temperature until cpu slows down.

A modified kernel is the only thing that will allow you to adjust thermal throttling. Hoever i do not recomend adjusting theses settings, this will damage your cpu. Thats what the thermal governor is for.

Oh, yeah. When I got my N4, the benchmarks sucked! Slower than my S3! Rooted, put on a custom ROM and it's all good. No heating, nothing. Even went back to Stock when the update came...and it was still good. Not sure, what was wrong...or what happened from Stock to Custom to Stock...

Haha yes. It's very strange though. So, I have finally decided to root and install a custom ROM. I only hope there is no heating.
And do I lose the possibility of updating to official Lollipop through Odin (not OTA's) when the offical 5.0.2 comes out ?
Thanks

Overheating should be reduced. Lollipop you will have to odin stock firmware or if you made a back up of stock rom with a stock kernel.

I'm not gonna go running out to get lollipop as soon as it comes out. I will wait to see what issues people are having first. Right now I'm pretty satisfied with kit kat.
