This is simple guide. If you find it susah than I advise you better not try
Be PATIENT as reboot will take some time !!

Your rom must be DEODEXED

It is safe to disable any stuff as long as you can see disable option. Core stuffs will not allowed to be disabled n disabled option is greyed out

all rooting method now will trigger the knox
but fret not
uncle benny managed to get warranty for all his rooted samsung phones for the past 8 years (if not mistaken)
just unroot and uninstall SuperSU before sending for warranty
*
Out of 7 times only one time was unrooted. Last 2 claims with knox triggered Note3 n S6 edge ( change motherboard) also warranty covered. Very good experience claiming warranty past 7+ years
I only unroot phone when Knox was in picture n had never bother in those early years.

hi guys, i know that need to backup before rooting to play safe. can i know what is the difference between titanium backup and nandroid backup? Is it necessary to do both backups or only one of it will do? thanks
*
TB backup only your app n its data. Nandroid is a full backup of everything in the phone.
Rooting is very safe. You can only use those 2 tools after root. Rooting will not delete or change any of your app or data

but if wanna flash custom ROM it is recommended to do those 2 backups right? or i can do one of them only?
*
If you want to flash custom rom ( with wipe data selected) :

TB - for easy restoration of apps and data
Nandroid - as safe copy in case your rom flashing fail, sudden rebooting or you prefer to go back to previous firmware version

From your questions I seriously suggest you google more about rooting, backing up and flashing roms before even trying to do any of these stuffs

Prob with websites like lazada, if u see the price now, tmr will change.

I cant find the one i bought already. Nasib i bought. Now prices all back up to 22xx.

From what i know when using websites like lazada, is this.

IMPORT galaxy note 4 (ap set). If dont have the import word, will be sme set.
Query to those who uses lazada. Any idea of can use like cimb weekend 10% + lazada app 10%? Means total get 20%? Or only can pakai 1 of the promo?
*
I struck before buying the Note Edge.( Korean import set) ..but on second attempt a few months later only one discount ie CIMB only. Dunno how exactly they work this discount
No harm trying as at least you will get 10% discount

Got 3 good discounts from Lazada : rm400 less for Note Edge ( Korean set) , rm300 less for Note4 ( SME) , rm300 less for S6 Edge 64gb ( SME) vs official retail prices. All make use of their discount vouchers
Best day to buy usually Fri to Sat
One need to check regularly for discount options

Never buy things from Lazada.
Bought a charger from there earlier, quoted original from samsung and high speed.
Upon receiving, is oem item and SLOW speed.

Then i found out that Samsung or SME, DOES NOT engage with lazada as dealer or whatever terms they use.
*
Too bad but to openly discourage is too straight
I had purchased from Lazada 8 times past 3 years n every purchase was fine. Discounted stuffs claimed to be original was original
My advise those buying from Lazada do review the seller as too many sellers tumpang the website to sell. Especially if stated import check warranty as most doesn't support any warranty.

Since Note4 Samsung had used both own n Sony sensors in its rear camera. This was announced n carry forward to S6 series.
Nothing strange about it. Possibly different production batches from same country could be different too
This was due to Samsung production capacity problems coping with its own demands.

Hi.

Any idea how to disabled head up notification in sweet rom? I found it very disturbing and unable to find way to disable it. The notification keeps on pop out while I play game or watching movie so I flash to other rom which can disable the head up notification.

You guys are so worried about camera kena scratch and display too ?? I never bother with such stuffs and till now all my gadgets are pristine without a single scratch . I don't believe in using any screen protector except for Xperia series due to its easily scratchable anti shatter film. Had never such problems since starting to use such stuffs for past 8 years !! You just need to know how to take good care of your stuffs

How did you handle you device actually? Do you put into pouch or straight into pocket? Pocket may contain key, coins and many other things tend to scratch phone screen.

That's the reason why I use flipcase, even tho I dislike them.
*
My phone always in flipcase inside pockets. Only at home I used the phone without any casing. Oh yes I love flipcases vs those back cases.

So you're solely using flipcases without tempered glass and using your phone naked at home?

I don't believe in using any screen protector
I had infact even demo infront of my friends trying to scratch Note2 display with scissors n blades dragging across display. I had even posted video of it on youtube. Display intact. Only stuffs harder than glass eg sand, diamond could scratch it. And chances these will hit my display is zero with flipcase protection
Keys, coins common stuff in pocket will never scratch the display n probably only the phone metal sides

More amazing sometimes I wonder how some users can even uninstalled system stuffs from an unrooted phone. Seen this occurrence few times in various threads !!

QUOTE(chaostan @ Jun 23 2015, 06:48 AM)
wat is the easiest way to root ? n wat is the best stable custom rom i guys can recommend?
*
Easiest n fastest ( no headache) is using Odin in PC n flash Chainfire CF Root - get this from XDA Note4 thread original android development. It takes only few seconds to root. No data will be deleted during rooting n is very very very safe process. Don't allow those pessimists discourage you about rooting. Only a dumb guy can brick his phone rooting. Just follow the instructions. Is so freaking simple even my neighbour primary 6 son can root his father phone. Make sure you download correct cf file matching to your model
Closest custom rom to stock is Wanam. I would recommend Sweet Rom v14. Rom you need to try yourself to assess n there is no best rom. What is best for me is not necessary true for you.

Need some tips from all the android sifu here. I got a new android device, i wanna xfer everything including saved games. What would u do? Not rooted.

Use Helium?

Thanks

Helium for non rooted is a 50/50 chance n you can try
Why don't you also copy your game folder stuffs over - locate these using any file manager app. Many games data are often buried in android/data or android/obb folder while some had own obvious folder in root directory

Got my Gold Note4 n comes with BOE1 firmware
After testing all ok I rooted it
Had problem flashing twrp using flashify app
So revert to odin to flash cwm instead
CWM unable to mount ext sdcard . So I flash the Sweetrom from internal memory instead
Will explore later solutions to install twrp ( my favorite)
Didn't face such issues on previous Note4 bought about 9+ months ago"!
