U make me scare alrady. Haha.

no chance for i9506 to get auto update in malaysia?

Anyone notice what's the difference in today's update (90MB+)?
The Build number is I9505XXUGNH8. Can't find any release note....

Hi all,

My S4 battery drains too fast, and it always heating up when i plug off the charger.
I bought it a year ago and I never update any new version.
What's the problem actually? Can I just buy a new battery? Or I must send it to the service centre?

Thank u.

Should I turn my i9505 into GPE S4? Anyone here is on AOKP/GPE ROM? What are the pros on top of the stock ROM?

Because since CM7 days, where I will flash AOSP/AOKP/CM because stock ROM is too bloaty or slow, then I will revert back to stock ROM very fast due to not being power efficient (short SOT) and oversimplified system apps such as the camera.

1. Your S4 within 6 months then you can claim for new battery. Anytime before that you can go to claim it.
but over a year no luck la. Take out your battery, place on flat surface to confirm it's can circle it yes, then meaning
battery KO

2. Draining can be also not caused by old battery but applications you installed.
if you turn on auto sync, bright > 10%, auto turn off screen > 30 Secs, letting a lots of unused bloatware to run wildly
also will cause battery drain.

3. When you said plug off charger always heat, sure la when charging it's will produce heats. If you said using produce heat also sure la. where got using handphone without heat.

Hopes i help..

If you have rooted and the ROM you intended to flash being commented stable and smooth or good battery, why not...

Not sure what SOT is good for you? mine is stock and still virgin and my SOT is 4 hours +

i tried before solo launcher, felt slow compare to nova.

Any improvements so far after the update?

For AOSP/AOKP based roms, need some readings before flashing. The only AOSP based roms that i loved is PA(Paranoid Android) rom, but sometimes, they sucks too. That depends.

At last revert back to stock-based custom rom. Due to the functionality, performance wise.

hmm.. i scare you? Sorry ya .. just feedback since you asked and so happen i observe the change.

90+MB upgrade and furthermore only to make our S4 more stable and never tell what stable and no idea what not stable So my comment is

As long as it makes the phone less laggy and ultimately less buggy, then its good enough. Its a minor update only if 90mb.

Just kidding. But if it really lags I will switch back to android. Haha.

I didn't why he switch back... overall i was told the phone is quite smooth but the way operating is very much different with Android...

need to use for few days or weeks to confirm but by then we may receive 4.4.4..

3h on 3G/LTE
4h on WiFi

I'm looking at something close to my Note 2/3s which is about 8 hours on WiFi, apparently it is impossible.

PhoeniX was my first custom ROM ever since I bought it last month.

yes.. u may turned it..
GPE rom not bad IMO

But then the camera is the only drawback.

No slowmotion, HDR etc

im using GPE Virgin ROM. its good. only drawback is the camera not as good. and all samsung functions are gone. so your samsung account also gone, no more galaxy life
