May I know which combination uses the least or save the most battery ?

1. ON wifi & ON mobile Data
2. ON wifi & OFF mobile Data
3 OFF wifi & ON mobile Data

OFF wifi & OFF mobile Data (I know this saves the most but its pointless so excluded)


is it 1 then 3 then 2 ?

I was in Korea couple of months back. Swapping batteries seems to be standard practice over there. They were doing it all the time in the MRT.

that is because their standard s4 set comes with extra battery and some even comes with the kit not like here.
Anyway a powerbank seems more feasible here, I have one 12k mA necessary as I use GPS a lot along with gestures and I never off my data.

Hi guys,
After stock room rooted, are we able to update through oTA OR Kies?

I tried press the firmware update but it mentioned that I have modify something after i apply cf root and cannot download Samsung software...

you can enjoy all the greatness of root SU access (god I love SU powers) and also be able to update official from samsung by using the trangle away app by chainfire, try this ---> Click Here

Do note that after you update once officially, you will lose your root access (just root again no big deal smile.gif)

Thx for the recommendation bro

Seems the sample I provided to you serve you well

Btw guys. I always sell my battery with real capacity

I don't mark up capacity to oversell it

You all can ask in nexus, note1, s3 ... etc thread. My customers can attest to that

Btw my 1st batch of s4 real 2600mah with nfc coming. Should be next week

Price will be 55 with 6 months warranty

Do you also sell the battery kit too ?

Really? One hardware and lost faith? What are you a boy still dreaming for Santa Claus?

First of all, what is the faulty hardware? How are you sure LG, Sony, Apple, Motorola, HTC will not have the same failure?

I'm not even a fan of Samsung (I'm "still" more of a HTC guy) but these "Samsung sucks" posts are getting more and more and I sometimes think, why do you even buy a Samsung phone without knowing their reputation?

If they are weak in hardware and service, don't get it. They have the best specs? Sucks to be you. I choose specs.

Many (not just you) get a Samsung, use touchwiz and end up saying meh, Android/Samsung sucks because it's so lag, build quality sucks, many problems, bla bla. iPong so good no lag. I used to argue with these people, trying to knock them some sense. But that was 3 years ago. Now, I'll just say, get an iPhone. Don't ever come android.

Yeah you aren't comparing, I'm doing it because after many posts, I decide to reply to yours so don't take it to heart.

My question stands : which hardware is the one having failure that you "lost hope" on Samsung devices?

No sorry fruit is a crap product then, its a crap product now. I came from 3310 to Symbian to android I never once even remotely thought of a fruit products, has too many shortcomings

QUOTE(prettydevil @ Jul 8 2013, 03:10 PM)
thanks for that.

i sent my phone back to samsung service centre and turned out it's hardware failure... they changed it but i totally lost faith in samsung...

just because of one issue you loss faith in them... there are many reason for hardware failure maybe you just so happens to be one of the "lucky" few to receive a defect unit. even fruit has defect units.

Well as much as I would agree with you, I cannot start a pitchfork fanboism discussion here.
I don't mind fruit product grows strong really. I don't mind if they finally goes true multitask and start having homescreens. I know I wont buy it, I know I wont give a damn. But if they are to put up a good fight, that's good. Consumers only win in competitions.

When Samsung dominates, there are also fears of it being the next apple. Which I wish it wouldn't happen. And with that, we need competitions.

PS: It's because of fruit, I appreciate desserts. smile.gif

nah pal this is not fanboism but my ideas are exactly as you posted above, their shortcomings and high egos are what made Android blossom.

LOL stupid samsung ... I finally found the solution will share here for all who has / will have this problems later.
I decided to try delete some things bit by bit and found out that to actually download and install samsung updates, you need to have at least 4.5gb of free space in your PHONE STORAGE no matter you have an SD card inserted or not to successfully updates.
