QUOTE(khairtech @ Mar 11 2016, 10:55 PM) Hi guys, I revived my wife Galaxy S4 (GT-I9500 on 3G only no 4G), found out the battery drained too fast. Configured to lowest brightness and reset the phone with basic aps in it. I thought it caused by the battery, then I bought a new set of battery from Samsung KLCC RM100+. PS: On Android version 5.0.1 Unfortunately, same result but better than previous old battery. QUOTE(m300 @ Mar 12 2016, 12:50 PM) I have been using the S4 I9505 for nearly 3 years. The battery drains quickest if connected to mobile data. Significantly less battery drain if connected to WiFi. Nowadays a full charge in the morning will last me until evening based on my usage pattern. I use third-party replacement batteries. Pisen, Nohon and Deji but now unable to get Deji. Pisen can get from Lelong, Nohon from AliExpress. I swap out the depleted battery in the evening and charge it using a separate battery charger. I normally carry a spare battery with me when I go out. Smaller and lighter compared to a power bank (So far I have not used a power bank). The I9505 has a bit better battery life compared to the I9500. When I had the S5, the battery help up for at least one day usage for me.

QUOTE(GTA5 @ Mar 13 2016, 10:39 PM) Bro I wanna ask, how much is the capacity of those third party battery? Been wanting to get sun global 3150maph battery but doubting whether it is as advertised. I heard third party batteries have shorter charge cycle compared to original battery. Is it true? Those third party batteries usually are not what they claim to be..  Usually their quality are not where near the originals. Only trust the originals.

QUOTE(khairtech @ Mar 13 2016, 10:48 PM) I only revived my wife S4 after bought her S6 Edge. I used to admire S4 when it's first launch in market but the price hahahahahahha, I went for Nokia 1320. Maybe I can try revert back this phone to it's first Android version instead of using Lollipop? But how about other application like WhatsApp and others if I revert this phone to previous Android version? Anyone mind to share? A lot of people are still on kitkat on the S4. Hope that answers your question.

QUOTE(randomted @ May 15 2016, 05:07 PM) Reset the phone means all my data will be deleted? I don't think samsung center cam help me as my s4 is an Australian unit. Then send to outside third party repairers. Self repairs wont be possible. This post has been edited by TOMEI-R: May 16 2016, 11:54 AM
