Speaking of iphone 6 and 6 plus the one place where it feels superior is the Web browsing . Chrome doesn't seem fully optimized (I mean it is fast and works well but it is not butterly smooth like safari ). |

Also flashed CWM Recovery,my old friend  (this is where the madness begins)...flash flash flash!
XDA Forums are still pretty scarce with developmental material but I'm sure it will be hotting up soon.

My son has the white one and it does not have a gap but it is more like it is a litte uneven. The screen is closer to the frame on the top left side than it is on the right. He hasn't complained coz he probably hasn't noticed it

rikken Then I don't have a gap issue.Its pretty much exactly that.Like it was put on uneven.
Im a bit of a font changing 'MONSTER' so I'm very pleased to have come across this XDA site. Flashable fonts (in CWM Recovery is my thing - main reason for rooting) but what is cool about this thread is the dev has created a packager where you can make your own flashable zip. Or you can just use the ones he's already packaged or request a font and he will package it for you. Awesome! Just flashed first font of many to come. All working well. Getting my little font collection started.

Damn another road block.Two things that I rooted and installed CWM Recovery for have both resulted in success but with a glitch.Turning dpi from 640 to 480 worked but for the camera app not joining the party.Flashing fonts resulted in full system changing but in this case SNote doesnt want to join the party and force close  Still early days. Can live without dpi change on TW but the font thing is a biggie.Must get it working.

Hobbs, yes there does not seem to be much by the way of development for the Note 4 but give it time. Its only a month out now. Things will heat up.

My Galaxy Note (N7000) had the same problem with the home button. My daughter has the same phone and the button on hers is okay still today although the menu and back capacitive buttons have died.

The Note 4 home key is very firm and tightly fitted, at least going by my Note 4 and the Note 4s I tried in store before getting mine.
It looks to me like Hobb's Home key looks slanted due to the angle the pic was taken and the uneven light between left and right sides.
All
So I use the Finger print lock for my phone, and about 10mins ago I was outside cleaning our swimming pool and clearing the pool pump as well as the Baracuda, so my hands were wet, came in to the house and picked up my Note, and a drip of water landed on the home key, when I pressed the Home key to wake the phone up it came up with a notification telling me the Home key is wet and that I must whipe it and then swipe my finger over it very nice, had no idea it could sense that.
