Note 4 only has temp root. System is write-protected and on reboot restores system to stock.

Better read up on the Note 3. They are crying for root as well. I stayed on 4.3 to not even chance it. I would get the Note 4 if ever perm rootable but we know that won't happen. They can keep the Note 5 - no thanks. Sorry. Short answer - still love the Note 3.

That guide is ancient and not applicable. You can only use root apps as intended if you have root. If KK 4.4.4 or Lollipop then no root and currently no way to get it. There is no downgrade to any rootable version if you are running 4.4.4 or above. I was happy to stay rooted with 4.3.

Try 192.168.43.1. You could also enable the hotspot and connect your TV. You should be able to confirm the network and default gateway (the hotspot address)

No to each of your questions - no root on 4.4.4 and no downgrade.

Locked bootloader. No custom recovery - CWM. Don't try it.

No such thing. It's all or nothing.

use es file explorer's ftp server capability. your pc can connect and copy the files.

There is no way to unlock the bootloader.

Locked bootloader so no downgrade. Yes, each version update gets better and better with fewer holes to exploit. Lastly I would guess that many of the best now work for google etc.

Hunt down an older phone.
