When the Scrum Seems To Basics For Your Needs
If you believe that you are done learning from the scrum framework then you are missing something.
It will never stop revealing new information to you when you pay attention. So, use the framework to guide decisions on where to go next and let it help you detect when you need to change. Then as an opportunity to change happens during development(my experience is that it always does), remind yourself that you just applied it to the something you did not expect, you changed and we all continously learn. The team then becomes a complex adaptive system that is exploring product possibilities using the scrum framework. The scrum framework will make it easier to detect and help reveal / address new information in new ways.
This means you will have to admit that each situation is unique and you don’t have all the answers. You can use the framework to help detect the right questions and sometimes to provide good answers as well but, not always 
Long ago, I stopped complaining that the framework is too basic. Go after your product development desires, take baby steps and don’t pretend to have all the answers. Simply explore whatever comes your way, be empirical with each decision, time box to force regular movement and dialog dialog dialog with your teammates.
