**** The Official Note 4 thread ****

Quite. Some of them are so blinded by their fanboism it beggars belief.

Not really, what beggars belief is that 7 out of 12 iPhones bent in normal use. if that was the case then there would be 10's of millions of bent iPhones out there and it would still be headline news, which it isn't.

More likely that 7 out of 12 employees thought, it's a company phone lets see how bendy they really are!
 
Does anyone know if you can still get discount on the monthly tariff with O2 open even if you bought the phone from mobiles.co.uk? My phone arrives tomorrow, just wondered if O2 would knock anything off for me?
 
Do custom roms usually have the Samsung dvfs disabled? I'm finding it a little annoying while gaming and the cpu clocking down to half speed when the temp is only reaching 56 degrees.
 
Loving the phone still, but I'm having some monster wakelocks at the moment!

The phone's been off battery for 14h 34m as I type this, and has been awake (wakelocked) for 51% of that, so that's over 7 hours of wakelock today.

Roughly 5 hours of those (!) are one processes "wlanrx_wake". Now this only seems to be a real issue when I'm at work (in a university), and I guess it's something to do with the network pinging/waking the phone.

Does anyone more knowledgeable than I have any suggestions (other than to turn wifi off) as to how I can try and manage this?
 
After my first week of owning I'm loving the phone even more.

Battery is as good as my old note 2, in fact better.
As I type the phone has been off charge 2 days 11 hours, with 5 hours+ of screen time with 12% battery left.
I'm not one for killing services running to save power either, so overall I'm very impressed with it.
 
Picked mine up yesterday (at last!) and initial impressions are just, *wow*

Just off for lunch so a quick message, but the battery life is actually unbelievable - coming from an S4 it's like having 5x the battery. The fast charging is amazing too, can't believe how they've made it charge so quickly.
 
Battery performs well so far, was down to 13% after 2 days (power saving on, 11 hours screen time).

Wonder what it'll be like this time next year?
 
I ordered the note 4 on Tuesday and ended up being sent a moto 360!!??!! of course as soon as the "package" was signed for the contract started and now they can not send me (even though i have sent the moto360 back unopened) the note 4 until they re-set my contract which I have been told is being problematic. I even have a note 4 reserved in a local "network" shop that i can't pick up until it's sorted out :(.

In all fairness the support from them has been superb so far (That's not sarcasm they really have been in touch every hour).
 
I ended up giving in and I managed to pick the phone up in store from CPW last Friday (You were right Cosimo lol). I've gotta say this is one beast of a phone and I'm liking it even more as the days go by.

The metal frame makes it feel better to hold in the hand and in some ways even though it's a big device I feel the frame gives off the perception that it's smaller than it looks.

Even on stock rom this thing flies through everything, can only imagine how much better it'll be once I get around to rooting and putting a custom TW rom on there.

All in all I'm very happy with the phone!
