Knox is triggered once you root the phone. This is what you will see in DOWNLOAD mode
Many users are worried about warranty once knox is tripped as it cannot be revert back to default. You can remove root through supersu pro. My personal experience with Note 3, I could claim warranty without any issues. And based on what I had read in Note 3 thread there are too several users who reported claiming warranty even with Knox tripped
It seems the Samsung service center doesn't check on this Knox stuffs ??
Anyway is your choice and be concerned if you are worried about warranty issues. Just don't root if you wish a secure warranty path

They do check uncle but not all . Friend's unit was unlucky , checked and rejected his warranty . Worst part , he went to another service center and after checking his imei , the customer service told him he's not entitle for warranty due to knox tripped and his imei is in SME system .

I'm waiting for price drop. I don't want to spend so much for something that's crippled. I really love the Note series. With the improved stylus functionality from N1 to now N4, I've found my perfect phones. I'm just very disappointed that in order to use my phone the way I want to, I have to risk voiding my warranty. My cousin who is using Sony Xperia doesn't have this issue on his phone and so does someone mentioned in reply to my question earlier in another thread. So I believe this is Samsung issue.

Anyway, let's move on from this topic. Don't want to spoil the celebratory mood.

I'm using Xperia Z3 , who said doesnt have this problem ? The only thing I can think off is your cousin is using a pre-kit kat model , running maybe on JB or older . Even HTC M8 got this problem and andrewtst , u use M8 before right ? Is it me or the stock rom in M8 doesnt come with a file manager

Does Sony Xperia have something similar to Knox ?  Does rooting potentially cause warranty to be voided like rooting S5 or Note 4 ?
*
Sony is worst if u think knox is bad . Unlocking bootloader automatically delete some DRM keys . Some of the functions are gone for good unless u backup the folder 1st which is hard to do without root .


QUOTE(benny888 @ Oct 19 2014, 12:45 PM)
M8 finally got its file manager only in its last firmware update

oh ok , was on custom for a while so didnt know that . I remember was trying to check my files in my internal before flashing and couldnt find anything to access it . Had to dl Astro from Play Store .

I had been declared a Samseng fag in ip6 thread just because I mentioned this Note4 UI is smoother
That forumer ask me to go back to my cave
And here he said he want to buy Note4
Some guys simply unbearable

Just like the viios forumers thinks they own a "God" car , those ppl think they own a "God" phone . Everything else is rubbish

Pity of you that stuck in between. If ifag keep emphazesing the smoothness but i feel it is nothing threat to Note 4 now as Note4 is about the same smoothness. They are no more bullets to shoot to Sansung and the coming days Apple will follow what Note product bringing to customer such as big screen 5.5" 2 years ago, multiple windows 1 year ago.

Ifag are still not accepting the fact that Note4 is much better than iphone6 in term or functionality. The fact will be realized by ifag after 2 years after Apple also come out similar multiple windows concept, i-pen and so on which Note series also invented to this Samsung Phoblet few years ago.

Samsung still lose to LG and Apple . Both got a phone that can bends , G Flex and iPhone 6flex whistling.gif

My personal experience LG makes good products. LG G Pad 8.3 I rate best Android tablet beating Nexus7. LG G Pro2 best 6 inch phablet vs HTC One Max, XZU, Mate6.1
LG Optimus Pro great Note2 beater except it lacks stylus
It's firmware much less bloat ware vs Samsung. Only major disadvantage is not popular with rom cooks.
*
I agree . CM was a popular fan for LG , almost every mid range to flagship , there will be a CM rom
The bootloader locked and almost-impossible to unlocked kills it . Luckily there are bypass these days like Loki patch and now Bump! for 4.4 . Would take a GPro2 any day compared to Max or even XZU


QUOTE(benleong2008 @ Oct 19 2014, 01:47 PM)
I just bought N4 then I saw Edge and feel its nicer :/
*
RRP in Japan is USD1k for Edge , Docomo unit . Unless you're willing to root and lose the warranty , dont bother . U think Samsung bloatware is bad , imagine having Samsung Bloatware + Docomos apps which we totally cant use but runs at background

Why u butthurt?

It's somethg samseng always do. Come out with millions of models each year that look like each other.
Anyway, willl treat u as a barking dog outside the road. Just ignore and call the exterminators.

True , Samsung is doing it and so is everyone else . Any difference between ip4 and ip4s or ip5 and ip5s ? Right , ip4s got an extra line at the side of the phone . At least i need 2 buy a new case for note 4 , note 3 case cant be use . Iphone ? 1 case can use for 2 generations until a new model comes out . At least 5s got a bit different since got finger print sensor

Thanks for highlight this. Then I not root for the moment as my main root is Xposed framework but I need SHealth as well.
*
There is a workabout for SHealth but I havent tested it since i dont use it

Wanam xposed has an option under security hacks called "secured storage" that fixes S health. Check the box, go into settings/apps/look for S health, clear data and cache and reboot. (dont forget to enable wanam) this will fix s health. No luck on private mode yet though.

I think when u open the app and never close it. It is automatically added to the multi window
*
U havent use Note before I presume


QUOTE(edtai @ Oct 19 2014, 09:59 PM)
I dont understand it. Please can you explain how to do it. What i notice that the multi window tray will not allow 3rd party apps to be added... the 3rd party apps will not be allowed by the system to be changed from full screen to floating window if we pull the screen top right angle to center of the screen. Hopefully you can understand what i mean.
*
Samsung dont allow 3rd party apps to be added to multi window ..... Chatting apps like Whatsapp , Line are added as default apps for that reason since a lot of ppl use it yet cant add to multi window unless u root your phone and install some apps that allows you to edit your multi windows apps to add in 3rd party apps as well . I doubt they change the policy in Note 4

i wanted to get the N4, but still can't decide to get the SD or exynos version, my main concern is LTE Cat 6 and Cat 4

Concern ? There's no word if CAT 6 is coming to msia unless you're in Sg and that's a different story

Tab Pro and Tab S , Note 10.1 and Note 10.1 2104 ....... These are a few that's damm confusing . I rather they name it Note 10.1 and Note 10.1B
