[SM-N9208] Note 5 Marshmallow Delay - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It seems we still haven't got the update for our SM-N9208 dual sim variants.
I've checked sammobile and almost all (except ours) note 5 model already have marshmallow 6.0.1.
Why do you think is the reason for the delay of the firmware? :good:
I'll be putting my experience here once i've got the update.
I'm also hoping that someone roots and flash a custom kernel and share how they did it in case a battery drain bug (KNOX deep sleep MM bug) occurs. :fingers-crossed:

Please change the thread titel. It is not funny to be disappointed.

I agree! Please close this thread. I got my hopes up for nothing.....

SM-N920C insane battery drain overnight !!!

Hi guys , i guess its one of the common issues that note 5 users are facing , but i believe my situation is the worst !!
yesterday i have fully charged my note 5 then i slept, and when i woke up today i have touched my phone and it was very hot !! kinda 80c, checked the battery and god ! it was 13% !!!
that's very very weird i mean !! in 7 hours my phone spent 87% of the battery life !!! can anyone please help me ? :crying:
I had similar issue with my phone recently. I installed the latest OS available and now i lose 30% or so battery just letting the phone sit over night. with no notifications or background apps.
Based on which software? The new OK6?
If you tripped knox you cant use the stock kernel even if you have stock firmware. It will not go to deep sleep. You must use the different kernel.

Read stock kernel thread on original development category. I tried with two note 5 and yes i can confirm that issue.

So once I root I can't go back using stock kernels ?

Correct. But you can use one of the modded kernels. There are several in the Android Development thread.
The rooting thread makes it clear that you have to flash a modded kernel after rooting

Yes. If you flash stock (and therefore are not rooted) you can use stock kernel. The Knox flag will still be tripped though

Two main options I would suggest: flash Dr Ketan's L8 ROM if there is a version for your model. It has none of these issues.
Or have a look at the last few pages of http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/general/how-to-root-note-5-t3205073 - there is an issue with super su 2.6+ and no deep sleep. @drketan is trying a fix which is in that thread.

Why it won't deep sleep on stock without root ? Do all note 5 mobiles have this issue ?

No - it has been reported occasionally. If I remember rightly one of the causes is a defective image file for Briefing but I may be misremembering.

Can you elaborate more ?
I'm also having this issue. I've flashed stock and wiped data/factory reset but I'm still having this issue. Is there any way I can fix this whilst staying on stock? Also, yes I've already tripped knox.
it is not occasional. Its in the every kernel code on the note firmwares. I linked a post on previous page. If you read it you can get it what I mean. Its samsung side issue and I dont belive its fixed ever. Kernel looks the knox flag and If its tripped makes some memory parts unwritable and when is the boot done try to flush the cache and in the boot process this places maked not writable. Kernel try it over and over again and that is the cause of no deep sleep issue. So it will happen all the note5 variants. Even if you go full stock there will be deep sleep issue once knox tripped. There is no way for the bring back knox to untrip too. I blame samsung on this one.

Samsung might argue it is not their issue and thus they are not fixing it. The Stock Kernel is meant to work with unmodified phones only with Knox=0. Once the Knox is tripped, it is not going to work anymore because they are marking some directories as read only for security reasons if knox is tripped - I would say do not wait for a fix from Samsung so either use a custom Kernel or use a fixed stock kernel on this site from @garyd9 if you want to keep some of the hardware functionality.

Galaxy note 5 battery drain solved with ota update ( android m)????

Hi guys
I have question, i rooted my phone ( note 5 ). But i regretful , so flashed official rom again(4 files rom) .now everything is good but i have a big problem. My phone have a lot of battery drain in standby (2 hours =10%) and my android system with android os always stay awake and never go to sleep .now i want ask you if samsung release android 6( marshmallow) for note 5 and i update my phone with OTA to android m , my problem ( battery drain) could be improved or solved??? Pls guidance
Tnx
Change to 2g only
I chenged to 2g but still have same issue. Its a bug , maybe solved with android m
I am experiencing the same thing on a different phone (Alcatel Idol 3). I changed from LTE > HSPA+ and the issue still occurs, just a lot less frequently. I thought that it had to do with reception so I started changing my phone to airplane mode and connecting to WiFi when I went to bed. I thought that solved the issue but I had substantial battery drain less night which proves otherwise. Much less frequent occurrence fwiw but still not 100% resolved

Read post above. It is same for all Exynos7420 that I'm aware of.
I have no idea of Android 6 update will fix your issue.
All I can suggest is to re-root with a kernel patched for the deep-sleep bug. A kernel such as my SkyHigh kernel.

Skyhigh kernel . I want it but this kernel didnt have a md5 format for flashing. I wish sky high kernel didnt have any problem like random rebot

I test on my N920C which is same as yours and no reboot. You just need to read SkyHigh OP and installation instructions. Things won't be spin fed.... Take it or leave it.

Follow these steps to stop idle high drain.
On your GPS and select only wifi and Mobile network and off GPS.
Than go into lock and security and other security and than device administration and off all. It might save high idling drain. And syc should be off so that it can't auto syc. Android beam, nfc all other are also at off.

Root with stock ROM is very much liveable for me after applying the deep sleep fix (working perfectly for me):
Deep Sleep Fix - APK
I was having no deep sleep after root, applied this fix & am now getting ~75% deep sleep.
If you don't want to go the APK way, you can meddle with the system yourself (haven't tried this myself though):
Deep Sleep Fix - Manual Way

Precisely, deep sleep does help a lot with battery drain on stock, rooted ROM, see the fix above.

Does Android M fix the Deep sleep bug?

As Android M doesn't have root ATM we cant even flash a kernel etc.
Is that bug relevent there still? As I really want to update but can't take the risk that it will kill my battery so fast..
Thanks!
Its there on the tmobile version and s6 marshmallow. So i think on 920c it still have this bug.

no its not fixed. i factory reset the device after update but still no deep sleep
that's crap. Samsung need to pull their finger out. That's all I can say.
i think its deliberate.. to keep people from rooting
Supersu 2.67 have deep sleep fix and work perfectly in marshmallow.
this doesn't work with N920C Marshmallow. because there is no root.
or have you managed to root it?

ON N920c ?!
i wonder if supersu works, i installed it via TWRP but it says it got no binaries...
Also there are some issues with sound getting cut to half when playing angry birds 2 and other games, youtube is fine, battery leak is insane, and i think memory management is not fixed... either that was a beta release that got pushed or it's not ready.

Battery drain 6.0.1 custom ROM

I need your help. I have problems with my N910T, it makes dias Dr Ketan install the rom rom based on 6.0.1, I did as I was in 5.1.1, turn off my Note all night and the next day had dropped about 20% load. Install another rom, with OvrDriVE and I also did the same. Now I install official 6.0.1 rom stock, I proceed to install NobleRom V3 which is very good rom and also reoccurs me the same battery drain while my note is off all night. Thanks in advance for your opinions and suggestions.

My device has been taken about 3 or 4 years ago. What about your phone? I think we must look this opinion too.

I don't know to be exact how old is my phone because i bought it used.
But i think i need to replace my battery since it started to shutdown on 5% and sometimes at 10%.
This shutdowns happens on all roms even on stock.
