QUOTE(stalkie @ May 17 2016, 11:46 AM) Hi guys, My S4 crashed and kept rebooting itself, all I did was trying to launch YouTube app and it happened... anyway, I tried all sort of methods I can googled even wipe off everything and still doesn't work... Sent it to SC at Sunway Pyramid and they came back to me later suggesting to replace the Power IC and see if it fix the issue. They tried but the problem still persists, so they told me to take back my phone as they can't do anything unless I am willing to change the motherboard (which is very expensive) I took back my S4, pay the service fee and I bought a new phone. I'm just sharing and see if anyone faces the same problem, and here is the SC charges (in case you interested): 1. Diagnostic RM31.80 2. Power IC RM152 3. Motherboard RM954 They only charged me the diagnostic fee as they can't fix my issue. For the sake of discussion, When you mentioned "all sort of methods", can you list it out?  For your information ppl selling 2nd hand set for RM550 only... https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3922980https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3948400This post has been edited by nokia6280: May 17 2016, 11:56 AM

The solution was to change the motherboard. Cost RM 350. The repair was done at a shop (Atlantis Communications) in SS2, Petaling Jaya. You can try there if you wish to do so.

Just received an unexpected software update for my S4 (I9505) today. Nearly 290 MB. Have been using the S4 as a "mini tablet" for GPS (Waze) tethered to current phone for Internet connection. The purpose is to minimise screen burn-in of the current phone. Attached thumbnail(s)
