Wow good life you had, now only waking up!
In my whole 60 years I had always consistently wakeup at 530-600am. Is my self auto buildin alarm clock. No matter what time I go to sleep. The only days I had ever woke up beyond that is recovering from jetlag..

Thanks Benny, wanna ask one question. I read many forums still cannot get the answer. If I root it, will it trigger the knox straightaway?
*
As of now Knox is triggered based on all available root methods

So confirm after root, confirm will void warranty, since knox already triggered. but after that, can still update via OTA or not? or need to flash to stock rom before update via OTA...
*
As mentioned before if you worry about warranty don't root
My personal experience on Note3 even with knox triggered I could successfully claim warranty. And I am not the only one. So far I heard only one case that chap failed to claim. So I would say is a 50/50 situation
Updating firmware OTA no idea as all my Samsung always rooted. I use Odin to flash latest firmware on top of existing each time. As usually most of the updated firmware are usually from other countries.
I rooted my phone after one hour I got it after check everything is working well

Thanks Benny, but no root life is killing me. i just bought an ext sd card of 128gb and it will be a super waste if i don't root and allow ext sd card to be read...
*
So if your need is greater on ext sdcard just root it
Test first everything is working properly first
All my phones always rooted n warranty is of no concern with me. Past 7 years using smartphones only one time I need to pay for warranty claims. I had excellent record claiming free warranty for rooted Samsung phones even with one tablet booting up with yellow triangle. But heard these days Samsung stricter on root phones. Again I say don't root if warranty is important to you.

I want to ask, if I insert a SD card and not rooted, I still can extend the total storage right? the problem is I cannot choose specific file/apps to write into SD card?
*
Without root Samsung file manager can still write onto ext Sd card
Only other 3rd party file explorer app cannot but I read possibly ES file explorer can write too

How to differences between a Counterfeit & Genuine SanDisk 64GB Micro SD Cards?
*
Look at pricing n buy from reliable shops n avoid those kiosk sellers who r famous for selling pirated stuffs
Look for Vector Digital or McM distributor stickers for guaranteed warranty claims. These r confirmed local authorized sets

ChengLu CWM version 6.0.5.1 can now successfully backup my Note4 full rom onto external SDcard
The whole backup took about 20+ mins . Don't be surprised to see no response at backing up system and data stage. Just patiently wait for whole backup to finish

Download it at :
http://yun.baidu.com/pcloud/album/info?que...794990141443607

The CWM is in English

I'm struggling with my Note4 WIFI connection. Seem like throttle down while my S3 can have a very good speed. Anyone facing this issue?

Never had any wifi issues in my home P1 network. Had tested the Note 4 at Old Town in LowYat, various cafes too at BP shopping malls and McD

Uncle, could you try finding what is this IndexService with Titanium and freeze it? We'd like to know what impact it has when frozen.

It's waking and messing with the battery. I've also swapped my sdcard but it's still showing. edtai has also experienced this IndexService wakelock.

Thanks.

What is this index service stuff
Never seen it before in my wake locks at all
I had over 50 pdf files in ext sdcard n has no issues with them at all

I had about 400mb of PDF files on my ext SDcard
Strange I had yet to observe such indexservice . Had never even seen it under my list of app in appsucker on GSam battery Monitor. I check this list daily
Anyway probably I use the phone average 2 hours daily only
