Those facing network issues can easily identify whether is telco related. Just get a prepaid simcard from another telco ( it cost less than RM 10) to test it out. If you still faced signal problems on the other telcos, than better send in unit to service center to check
Personally I always discourage from using Digi which has the worst signals in my 15 years experience using smartphones. I gave up on Digi few years ago. Especially if you want LTE , they only cover 2600 Mhz while Celcom, Maxis supports both 1800, 2600 Mhz. Using LTE on Note 4 means you are being handicap already since the phone supports 2 bands 1800, 2600 Mhz
Personally I had never any signal issues on Maxis and Celcom on this phone or any other Android phone

Unroot will never remove Knox triggered
Whether you can claim depends on your luck
However I had successfully claim USB port on ex Note 3 with Knox triggered. Apparently the tech never bother about Knox in my case. I made the claim at LowYat service center

I have zero problems on reception n LTE on my ex Note4 n Note Edge
I was mainly on Celcom postpaid n also tested with Maxis postpaid. The LTE is very strong
No sudden drop call problem too

Waze working very well on my Nexus 6 ( lollipop 5.01, 5.02 n 5.1 on all official n custom rom)
So I dont think is app issue

Just hibernate or freeze the app if you don't need such stuffs.

Why use KIES n I always say is Samsung worst sync software compared to other makes such as Sony, HTC, Huawei etc
Download the firmware from sammobile n use Odin to flash is easier
I had given up on using Kies years ago

For those who update to a foreign country firmware be beware officially service center will void warranty. It is your luck if it is accepted. This info only for those who are very very worried about warranty issues
Personally I never bother n will always update to latest firmware from whatever country is available.

I would say you are one of the rare users complaining about Note 4 camera !!
I am not a camera shot expert but based on all the high specs phone I had used I'd say Note4 camera is the best even better than my over rated ex ip6+

After a month of solid using the ip6+ trying to use as a daily driver I decided to give up. Its restrictive file system was simply disappointing making the phone a simply unproductive and inefficient tool. I email lots of attachments and often shared stuffs from FB, Tweeter, Newsfeed and the iP6+ was just a disappointment. Other than these weakness the ip6+ is a great phone for those users who doesn't need to do such stuffS regularly. At the end I gave it away as a gift to my relative son as a reward for his excellent exam results

Depends on your luck claiming warranty. If your phone lands in one of the more knowledgeable technician than he might reject it
People always say rooted phones will void warranty . But my experience in claiming rooted phones cum flashed with foreign country rom has always been successful, 6 times in past 8 years. Once a tablet even booting up with yellow triangle !! There are also many cases many users cannot claim with rooted and they lament in the various threads here
Another often quoted is with Knox triggered phones are out of warranty. But I had yet to hear of anyone failing to claim with knox triggered. Personally I had successfully claim on USB port on ex Note3 with Knox triggered
So I would just say claiming warranty depends on one luck. For users who are very concerned with warranty don't even bother to root or even flash foreign country firmware

Easiest just use Odin to flash downloaded firmware n it will auto replace TWRP n unroot phone. You cannot had OTA update with custom recovery on
Restore to factory settings will not remove TWRP n will not ever brick your phone.
If the download version of lollipop is not available yet than just flash latest 4.4.4 version with Odin n followup with OTA update

Any Msian firmware is good enough
Try flash latest so that you need update once only
If older firmware it is possible you might be prompted to upgrade progressively. Happened to me before on older Samsung phones n not too sure on Note4
Or use odin flash stock recovery . Try look for it at XDA to see whether available or not

How can you get wrong rom ?? Check up Spore version only at Sammobile.com
You definitely cannot use Msian version as is Exymos chip unlike Spore SDragon
You can safely flash other country SD rom if you so wish

You wont be able to get any OTA update even with Samsung customize rom. Simple reason - your stock recovery no longer there
I had never bother with OTA n will always flash downloaded firmware from sammobile even if is from different country. Just make sure you choose correct chip version.

I dont have such issues of downloading. In worst scenario I used my phone data to download which is way much faster than my miserably slow P1 home network. My phone LTE speeds is at least 10-15X faster. My data plan is large enough to accommodate . Infact I used my phone data to download all firmware usually

I was using 128gb Sdisk ext sdcard on ex Note4 too n never had media scan issues. The scanning is very fast n occur once only when you put in the card. Scanning is very fast probably completed within a minute only. I had 80 gb video , 10gb photos n 10 the media files
Most probably a lot of your files in ext card is corrupted already causing this scanning issues. Definitely is not due to rom

Accessories i understand only 6 months warranty

Depends on your luck
Personally I had successfully claim warranty from Samsung 6 times in past 8 years. In all cases my phones/tablets were always rooted but in stock rom. My last Note 3 even with KNox triggered was also claim FOC without any issues
However I do read of few users failing to claim due to rooted phone
If warranty concerns you, just don't root

One forumer corrected me saying he called Samsung n was told 12 months warranty for accessories too!
