Damn just noticed that. Im looking to try AOSPAL

Hehe, its for my dad so I don't want him to rely on me for support. Yeah I am aware of other brand phones, but talk about phones with good support, I can only see Samsung and Sony, thanks!

After i updated to 4.4.2 , my wifi, battery bar, all becomes white colour and does not have colour like previous version. is it normal ?

Yup.

Thanks meiyi.. I thought something went wrong lol.

Because you upgraded from Jelly Bean to Kit kat already.

Samsung Galaxy S 4 or LG G Pro 2? Any ideas about these model?

U like AOSP? I prefer Touchwiz. Have u updated 2 5.2?

I am the same like u last time thought y it changed colours.

Are there any Tizen ROM?

Nope. Tizen OS isn't out on the market yet.

My S4 battery is more than a year old already. Is there a good replacement for battery out in the e-market? Anker 2600maH? OEM Battery 2600maH? Zerolemon 3000maH?

I heard the OEM batt sold in ebay are all fake irregardless of the seller saying it's genuine.

My S4 somewhat died yesterday, and it wasn't anything to do with the OS. Not sure what happened, but when I turned it off due to low battery and attempted to charge it with the adapter, the screen shows the battery icon for several seconds and just turns black.

Took out the battery but it didn't work. No signs of bloat. Now I'm stuck with a "bricked" phone.

Could be a failed charger, cable or battery. Make sure you try swapping these out first.

Charger works fine along with the cable I tested on a powerbank I have.

However I don't have a spare battery so I guess I've to buy it. :/

UPDATE: A miracle happened; took out the battery, held onto the POWER+HOME for several seconds, placed the battery back in and voila! It works

Hmmm, experienced this problem today.
Went to sleep with 90% and wake up with my phone dead. Then I went to charge it...this is just so weird

Im not used to pure AOSP, im more into customized AOSP like Carbon rom or PA. Im still deciding whether to try unified rom or any

Im using Sun Global battery, already 5 months now still performed well. Its just a bit better than stock. Plus one-to-one warranty is just nice and secure

Kinda weird as i assume this suddenly happen to you. Youre just flashing custom rom or still stock? Any new apps installed before that happen?

I've used it on my previous phone, battery drain was way worse than my phone's. I find it a rip-off.

Glad to hear that. Sometimes things like this do happen. I do not think the S4 will brick or be dead so easily.

Same to me when i first got my hands on it, the battery just soo worst. Then i claimed for warranty, did some spoof story until the seller decided to do one-to-one warranty exchange, and after that bamm. Its up and running better than stock

Still stock rom.....did nothing before this. It just suddenly behave like this lol

You're right. My S4 was softbricked numerous times but it always end up rescued. Long live the S4

Wow, that's good to hear How much do you spend on one?
