Just got a RAV last week or two. Was doing great (1 charge, 2 days including mobile hotspot), but then today it dropped from 98% to 30% in under a few hours, with a warning that it was overheating! I put it into power saver and it got me through the day; I'd never seen that warning before. (To be fair, usually because phone would just DIE at 40%) but I have xposed module to show temp, and it was HOT! No apps opened, and junkware removed! (I mean I STRIP that phone: no G+, etc). I hope I got bad batt because it has year warranty, but I fear it may be the hardware 😭😭😭 GOT to have replaceable batt and BIG phablet. VZW lady said "have free Note 9!" and I said "it got root?" I'm dx-ing now but anyone else have RAV problems on Note 4? I love my phone! _But I need it to work!_

top issue is the motherboard overheating and not being able to start it if the battery dies. if this happens, stick it in the fridge for 30 min, works every time for me. If you stick it in the freezer, there will be condensation, beware of that, but dont let the phone die! and use wakelock level 4. I really love my note 4, and I'm not about to spend 1200 dollars on a note 9. Thats insanity.

Great vid! Using the note 4 for over a year and it's still going strong despite the issues. iv rammed it full of apps, tons of widgets, few always on background apps(like volume slider) , internal and external memory almost maxed out, and it's still keeps chugging along! Also dropped it probably 50 times with no case, on hard surfaces and the screen refuses to crack. Not even a scratch. Crazy. Love it.

My Note 4 GPS has always worked fine on Google maps, Waze, and the Life360 app. I just changed my battery for the first time a couple months ago. I will look into calibrating the battery, which I've never heard of. Sometimes my Note 4 will be very slow where the keyboard doesn't keep up with my texting, but I keep typing anyway and the words will suddenly appear. It seems to be around the same time in the morning so I'm assuming perhaps a security scan is taking place in the background sucking up the resources. So far, everything is still working well enough for me to keep it. I appreciate your Note 4 videos. I'm looking forward to your Note 9 video.
@MayitoTek6 жыл бұрын
thanks for the feedback!!! if that doesn't happen all the time, sounds that there is an app running in the background taking most of the resources. As you mentioned, possibly the security scan. If your battery charges up to 100% and the phones does not shut off while having 1%+ I assume is good and no need for calibration . Also as batteries start getting old, they will shutoff when they hit a 15% or < which may be a good idea to do a calibration just to rule that out . am also looking forward to getting the Note 9 soon!!

My phone has been over heating and freezing. I thought it was because it was outdated since I have replaced the battery so many times before (I'm on my 3rd one). I was waiting on the rollout of the note 9 so I can get a note 8 from the drastically reduced price. However I worry about that battery since I cannot be changed. I never thought about the motherboard possibly going bad. I really like the note 4 for with all the options of changeable battery and expandable memory. Going to miss this great phone :(
@MayitoTek6 жыл бұрын
Hi Stan, if your phone is not restarting on its own I don't think it will have the issue with the motherboard. I made a video on my channel on how to make the note 4 faster.. check it out and see if it helps. I think going for the Note 8 when the Note 9 comes out will be the smart thing to do . Sadly most of the top phone manufacturers are now moving to a non removable battery . I will get the Note 9 when it comes out and plan on doing comparison with the note 4 and note 8 .

Yes had the hot phone problem and also when I used to plug my charger in if it was say under 20% once the charger was in the phone instead of going up in % it would drop down 19, 18,17 and so on. What I did when it did this was just turn phone off and pull battery out and battery was hot so waited a couple mins then put battery back in and restart phone and then it was back to normal charging. I got a new battery and phone works great again. It's why I'm worried about updating to the later model notes because the back doesn't come off.

My 5-year-old Note 2 died mysteriously overnight a couple of months ago. No idea why as it was totally dead in the morning, bricked, even tried a new battery to no avail. Anyway, that's beside the point. I replaced it with a "seller refurbished" Note 4 from eBay (AU) and have had no issues with it. Did a 'factory reset', transferred the SIM and SD card from the Note 2, switched the language back to English and we were off and running. After hearing your comments an battery life with used phones, I bought a 3rd party battery and external charger. I've had no issues with either battery. The only issue I have had is that my phone is a N910K, which is a Korean home market version. It runs Android V6.0.1 set up for the Olleh network and has Olleh, Samsung and other Korean apps which are useless to me. Apart from that, and some slightly strange behaviour (to a non-Korean), it runs great. I can live with this, rather than risk a loss of some functionality as seems to be the case with some 3rd party ROMs. Lack of replaceable battery and expandable storage are deal-breakers for me.

Based on the reviews and comments I read, looks like the phone are nice but they don't seems to offer the same long therm quality that you will get from a Samsung phone. They may slow down over time and have some software issues as they may not be maintained and updated as some of the bigger brands. Most importantly , they call them Note phones, but they don't come with Pen.

sounds like hardware issue . This is pretty common with the Note 4. you can try installing a custom ROM if you are familiar with rooting a device to see if maybe it was a software issue. below is a link to a place where you can search and get more info on that topic www.xda-developers.com/

My Note 4 is 4 years old now. It's by far the best phone I've owned and still works good today. The battery life isn't too good so I replaced it a couple of months back but it's still not great maybe 4 - 5 hrs of use out of it. It also seems to run abit hot if using 4g and this reduces the battery life further but hey I use WiFi mainly so not really an issue. I much prefer Samsung phones over Apple iPhone's. There not so locked down n force you to use the app store or iTunes to do anything. It does everything I need out of a phone and really well to even tho it's getting on abit. I'm happy to stay with the Note 4 until something really bad happens to this one and I have to buy a new one. One thing I do miss that I had on my old galaxy I the fm radio. Really daft they removed this.

I loved my note 4, had none of these problems until 2 days ago. It was playing a podcast through headphones and it randomly shut off. I haven't been able to boot at all, no response from hard or soft reboot, plugging in charger or to computer does nothing. I tried putting my spare batteries into it and that didn't work either.

I'd really like another note 4, but I don't think there's anywhere to get a new N910C or N910A for a reasonable price. I'd be concerned with getting a used one since the Amoled screen could have burn-in if someone isn't careful. For now, I got a Huawei Mate SE. I may get something else later on, but I'm not sure yet. And GSP, I've tried the freezer trick twice and unfortunately it didn't work.

1. batteries Samsung does not make Note 4 batteries anymore. Most Amazon sellers are really reselling Counterfeit Note 4 OEM batteries supplied from China, Ebay has same batteries at 1/3rd the cost. 2. I had serious problems with the Note 4 crashing and turning off, or resetting alot after installing higher amped batteries. I finally fix the phone by deleting the cache and data options on one of the 'boot' options, then reflashed the software using Odin and Note 4 firmware. Be casreful as if you do a NAND reformatting, you will brick the phone and the IMEI information and numbers get wiped, its a blank phone. I followed several you tubes on how to do this, and it worked.

You're close, but not quite. You have to root the phone, and actually delete those apps you don't use. Disabling them doesn't do any good, they're still they're, they get wake locks all the time, they still use battery and cause problems. Root the phone, download Titanium Backup, and get rid of data, then the apps. Your Note 4 will run much smoother.

Ah, you have a locked bootloader Note 4. Too bad. But still great review, gave it a like. Here a re a few more things you can do with even a locked bootloader phone: 1. Get rid of Flipboard, from the home screen settings. It slows the phone down, and I don't think anyone uses it. 2. Even though your phone is unable to root, you should be able to enable Developer Options, under About Phone. Click on the build number several times, and you'll be there. Then, go back and open the Developer options. Don't mess with too much, but I would enable UBS Debugging. Let's you connect to a computer easily. But more important, go to Window Animation Scale, Transition Animation Scale, and Animator Duration scale. Usually these are set default to 1X or 1.5 X. There's no reason for that. Set them to 0.5 X, and the phone will speed up. 3. Now and then, clear the cache of your most used apps, web browser, email, etc. Just go to Application Manager, click on the App, and click on storage, most will show a "Clear Cache" option. Clear that cache now and then. I wouldn't clear the data, which is another button, as that will delete all your settings. But clearing cache now and then is good for your phone. If you do all these, your Note 4 will outperform a lot of the new phones on the market today. You just have to take the effort. All the best.

I remember HP was real big in notebooks several years ago , eventually many of their Notebooks Models were having issues with the graphics card/ motherboard because of a bad design .. Now days is hard for a company to do something shady and get away with it .. There is apple for example 😀

IMO the most common problem was not mentioned here - the aging of eMMC memory. You can check the eMMC speed with AndroBench app. Usually the speed is around 200mb/s, but like in my case after 3 years of usage the speed is around 28mb/s. There should be 3 solution for that - bake you motherboard in the oven in order to revitalize the eMMC (no joke), replace the motherboard (~€150,-) or buy the newest Note 9 and I am certainly not giving >€1000,- for one smartphone.

Next you power it on, pull the battery, insert the sim card, reinsert the battery and then power it on. The radio turning off like that consistently pisses me off.

sorry,I understand now. I never had anyone mention a similar issue before or a possible solution in the channel. Below is what I usually suggest to find the root cause of an issue. 1. Determine if is a hardware issue or a software issue. 2. I usually do a reset of the phone and test the issue before installing anything to determine if the issue still exist. Usually if it still happens it most likely means the issue is with the hardware. ( make sure to backup all files, pics, passwords, etc) 3. Test each part , try with a different cable and wall charger. 4. See if you can get a hold of a diff battery and try to replicate the issue to eliminate the possibility of a bad battery . 4. If your issue persist, there may be some issue with the charging port itself. The micro USB charging ports are known to be problematic as they get lose over time.

I was rocking 5.1 for a while, just upgraded to marshmallow sometime this year .. I don't recall having that issue, but will check it out when i get home . Not sure if you have done a master reset, many times that will solve some of the software glitches that come with a major upgrade

@MayitoTek5 жыл бұрын
second hand is something to think about .. hard to know if the unit you are getting has the biggest issue which is with the hardware. You cant tell until you start using it and the phone starts restarting

I still use mine and love it. It stopped fast charging awhile back and now no longer charges at all. Have to take the battery put and use an external charger. Last week it started freezing up and having issues rebooting . Had to return to factory settings a couple times in the process. As soon as note 9 came out. Weird

yep, that is a very well known issue with the boot loop, my first note 4 had that and many people have reported the same. Are you thinking about upgrading soon ?

Does only mine Note 4 (n910c, exynos) lose random network cell coverage? It is super annoying, it shows that I have full network, somebody calls me and receives message that my phone is not on network. Then after some time I receive sms that he tried to call me, but didn't reach me. Happens random, is not sim card related. What do you suggest, is it the phone hardware going bad? Any ideas? Battery was changed, now this battery is 1 year old. I read somewhere that the wifi and location buttons mess with the cell coverage, i always keep wifi and location turned on.

@MayitoTek5 жыл бұрын
if your phone is overheating is probably because you have some apps running in the back causing the phone to overwork . As result it will also use up your battery . You may try doing a master reset to see if that helps at all

that sounds right, since wakelock is running in the background all the time it will cause your battery to drain a little faster.

Still using my Note 4. On my second battery now and still loving it. Where can I buy another one. So many ebay sellers but not many who you can trust that it's a GENUINE SAMSUNG NOTE 4. The wife and I got one at the same time 3-4 years ago and mine is working great. but hers is starting to freeze and go into rebooting mode. Wake lock doesn't work for her. I tried a factory reset and it worked but when I backed all her stuff back, the same problems returned. I'm thinking it's a trojan that's hidden in her back up data or something like that. I wan't to buy her another one but can't find anyone here in Australia who is selling a BRAND NEW UNOPENED GENUINE SAMSUNG PACKAGED NOTE 4. Anyone help with this. Cheers.
@MayitoTek6 жыл бұрын
Hi ZokStar- 1) The "freeze and go into rebooting mode", is a very well known issue with the N4. Is an actual issue with the hardware. Happened to my first phone 2) I am yet to come across a N4 new in a box, this phone was released about 4 years ago. Unless people kept it as a collective.. I don't know how else you can find one . The "new" N4 you find in ebay are probably just refurbishes N4s. Hope that helps!

I just got a note 4 from my dad after he used it. We replaced the battery and i noticed one thing. The back camera does weird stripes all over the screen while it is in slightly darker place. I remember it happened one time before and they replaced the camera off the warranty. Now there is no warranty and I dony know how much would it cost to replace. Is here anyone with same problem or who can tell me why the f***ing broke two times in it's existence? Thanks for answers
@MayitoTek5 жыл бұрын
I know many people have ordered parts from ebay ( real cheap) and replaced them. Not sure if you have any experience, but I am sure you can find videos on youtube that will show you how to replace the camera and maybe you can find a very cheap one online. I would do this just for the experience .

I am going to be honest though I am not a subscriber but because I love my Note 4 Blossom Pink so much I watched all your videos related to it. Tbch, you rock man. My issues that I am having on my Note 4 is just that it oftens restart my phone because it failed to detect my sim card. :/ I downgraded my phone version to 5.1.1 zillion times and it has always works fine for me. Not a big fan of 6.0 and above version at all. As for the battery, it is good, I changed the battery earlier this year. It gets hot only when I take photos. As for me I know the camera is not good as it is quite blurry like what you said so I use Meitu app to take all pictures and the quality got a bit better. (Well if the camera is damaged physically Meitu cant do anything either). But yeah :3

Hi Princess !! Read your comment the other day but was not able to reply until now.. I appreciate the feedback and thank you for watching all those videos!!! Someone else just left a comment describing a similar issue with the sim-card.. My first suggestion is to test the phone with a diff sim-card to rule out issues with the sim-card itself. It should not be taking blury images, sounds like there is an issue with the lens not focusing like it should.. next time you are taking a pic try tapping the lens with your palm and see it makes a diff.

The headphone jack on my Note 4 (t-mobile) has this crackling noise when headphones are connected to it. The noise is loud when music vol is low, but low noise when the music is high. I had a clown at T Mobile tell me that there was stuff in the headphone jack by flashing his light in it, but that was not true. I went home and opened the phone and swapped out the jack, and it still had the noise. Is this a common issue with the Note 4'ers? I'm thinking of snapping my Note 4 in half and getting another phone... decided on snapping it in half because it's got THINGS in it that are very sensitive.
@MayitoTek6 жыл бұрын
that is not a very common issue based on all the feedback I got from Note 4 users, but you are not the first one to mention it . hard to tell what it is, I know when using mine, sometimes if they are not connected correctly I get some static, assuming maybe some part on the hardware may be making a bad connection .. really hard to tell .. I assume you already did a master reset to rule out a software issue.. I would just keep the phone as a backup, this phone is a classic .. don't destroy it
@chilp97596 жыл бұрын
MayitoTek Thanks for the reply! The issue just happened out of nowhere. The jack was 100% working one day, then bad the next day. And yes, I did everything I could to get it to work, but haven't had any luck. I researched forums for a bit, but didn't find much... so I gave up. RANT : I was entertaining the idea of purchasing a new phone - non-iPhone - but still hesitant about it because I don't really need one. Kinda bums me out because my phone is in great shape. :'- (
