Look at that flat line when the phone sleeps through the night. Loving it! I still recharge the phone a bit yesterday cos needed to go out with friends and did not have faith the battery will pull through but this is so far till this morning.

Guys, any good web browser for S4 that support full screen mode and flash support (hidden status and address bar)??

The stock browser is good except no flash support and no address bar hidden function, the latter ate up quite alot of space IMO.

I download puffin for flash support purpose, overall a good browser however no full screen mode and even worst than stock browser, status bar also can't hide.

U can try dolphin browser. My choice for the past few years. About the flash thingy, sorry cannot help you there. Just give dolphin a try...

Haha awesome. Did you leave wifi on during the night? I usually just charge my phone overnight

My browser of choice would be Next Browser haha. Super smooth, some nice animations, and intuitive gestures won it over dolphin for me. Maybe it's just me or dolphin takes up a rather higher amount of battery when under use .

And yes it supports flash and full screen mode like you asked for

I'm using firefox, which is very good although without flash.

only problem I faced is when I first start up firefox, the loading of websites is super slow, maybe up to 45 seconds. wondering is it due to adblock.

but after that initial stage, super fast.

i see what you did there

my s4 was updated to 4.3 version for few weeks ago..i few charging phone time has been slower than previous...anyone having same issue?

it took 3 hours and only charge 59%....is it normal?

3 hours would've gotten my phone from 0% to 100% already....something is wrong with your charger/usb cable

seriously, adblock is the cause of slow start up for firefox.

but to have adblock.

Yerp, wifi on almost all the time. I used to do the same as u but since I am testing to see how far the battery goes, i just let it sleep without charging. previously if i let the phone with wifi on through the night, it will easily eat 10-20% battery...

Admin, can you put the link for the super duper battery saving on front post? Just in case I/others need to find it again after flashed new roms.

Some apps is running background and eating up your batt. Go check using wakelock detector or gsam battery (my fav).

totally not normal. try to identify the source of the problem thru elimination:

1. background apps running - turn off the phone before charging

2. battery/cable problem - try charging using another battery/cable

3. charger problem - charge from pc/laptop

hope this helps..

same goes to me. find out it was my usb cable that was faulty.

use Galaxy Charging Current to check whats your current. if below 1.2k, most probably either your usb port is broken/usb cable broken/charger broken/wall socket malfunction

EdwinCodec it seems like, you're not alone.

i factory-reset my phone just now since something is bugging my phone from deep sleep (although ive already turned off sync, sensors and etcetera). then, i called my bro to ask him something, and guess what. the moment i let my phone away from my near, the screen doesnt reappear. so i guess, its a firmware problem

Charging via labby usb?

My my.... I've been using my mum's hair dryer to blow the headphone shoot for 2 days.....

Btw, my dad just dropped his i5. Luckily there's spigen glass SP. Seriously it's worth!

I had the same problem as well but not until 3 hours...just that the charging time isn't normal....I did a complete reset and erased all data as well...basically clean...it was ok after that....im still not sure what was the real cause but this method did work for me...

Its like tearing up RM1xx infront of your eyes

too Off-topic.... xD
