Security policy update - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know what this update is all about? Wouldn't want to update anything that might make it difficult for me to root my phone later.

Just go ahead and install, these updates don't patch the OS if that's what your asking

It enforces security policy's , like policies in Windows (if you're familiar with that)
Here can you read more about it

Received this notification for my note 4 as well today and I'm hesitant to install it.

I still haven't installed it.

I would not update until I see some benefit from it

Just checked my apps in the market to update and this is no longer listed.

It's not a firmware update,just some applications.

Had updated those the first day i saw them . Meh. At least i know they updated it !
For the weather widget, it fixes the battery drain issue when you set it to use your location. That's all. Don't know what's up with the others because I don't use them.
I find that the Sony widgets are the cause of most of the ui lag and stutters so I use only weather, music, track I'd, and tools. The weather widget causes lag, don't notice lag anywhere else apart from sweeping either side of the screen that holds that widget. I still use it though lol

Then flash a CM 12.1 based rom or wait for Samsung to release a fix.

MM update here!?!?

According to Sammobile, the N910t3 version should be reviving the update now. I have the 910T version but the server says it's at its daily limit and to check back again. The Note Edge also is receiving it, apparently. I have a good feeling that once the server comes back up the 910T will have it as well. It's not showing on Sammobile.com or Smart Switch yet.

True, and we don't need two threads about it.
THREAD CLOSED

'N' icon in status bar!

I have disabled NFC and all Android Pay/Samsung Pay apps, and still the 'N' icon still appears every now and then, and it will only go away if I restart the phone.
I notice that after a night of charging that most times I wake up and see the icon. I can't remember another situation when it happens, but I'm not using wireless charging so it's not being used. Does anyone know why this icon appears after disabling NFC, and how I could prevent it from doing so?

Try flashing the optimization script from here to see if it fixes anything . No idea if it will and I don't have this issue so I don't know exactly what is causing it - but just download the "S7_or_S7Edge_Fixes_V15.zip" and flash via FlashFire .

What root method or guide did you use? I found one on here but the steps are a little vague.

Software update available. Tap to install new software.

Day 2 with my S5 and after I was able to root/safestrap/bb on version OK3 - 5.0
this notification does not go away
its like it wants me to force install pretty sure this is the verizon 6.0.1 update I read about?
either way I do not want to loose my root privileges, or all my data took me all day to migrate apk+data to this phone
anyway to disable this from showing or what do I do now...

Yeah. I knew it could be disabled somehow, but didn't know the name of the app.
TiBackup saved my ass so many times.
still not happy with the phone, but I didn't have to pay full retail for it so its whatever. better than my last handset for sure tho.
