Damn just noticed that. Im looking to try AOSPAL

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?

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

Try to observe next cycle you charge your phone. If that behavior returns, send the screenshot of your battery screen.

You mean the price? Cant remember, i think RM85 like that.

Really cant tell the difference. My advice is, if you wanna get original samsung S4 battery, better go samsung store but it might cost u a bit.

Im interested with your casing

You can try Anker battery. I saw one user in garage sales selling it, as he bring in stocks from Amazon.com but cant remember the name anymore. It comes with external charger

Carbon rom seems promising, much battery friendly, light and fast

To be frank, if you want that call quality to be fix, just flash Malaysia modem.bin file. I've made a flashable zip for that if you want. Latest malaysia modem by samsung was NB2, the one that comes with NE7 firmware. All works fine.

Problem? What problem? I've faced very little problem, maybe minor. Currently the best CM/AOSP rom so far is Paranoid Saber Droid // Carbon (probably the best) // Nameless rom. Im still running a test between these three

Camera issue no doubt, it is not actually an issue, actually CM-based rom only use Google Camera app, re-emphasized for CM-rom, eventho, the picture quality using that camera app is not as good as stock samsung.

Using ODIN is much easier once you know the steps. Download latest Odin (v3.09) then download your required firmware files, connect your phone to your pc in Download Mode, load your firmware in Odin then flash.

Flashing AOSP rom doesnt make your internal to have more space, that requires pit file flash through Odin, in which ive tested and it just release couple of GB's and not worth it. And were already have memory card to expand space

Anybody here have downloaded the latest i9500 firmware? Code NH1. I need the modem.bin files.

In case someone need the latest Malaysia baseband, i have the latest modem.bin and made it flashable through recovery, extracted from XXME_NI1 firmware. Download link below

Im on latest Carbon right now, seems like its a CM kernel bug, i faced the same problem on Nameless rom.
Just test it on Nameless rom just now, same thing. But in my case, i didnt pull out the battery, below are my case:

1.) I drain battery till 0%
2.) Connect the charger, battery icon came out and gone black again, but its charging
3.) After 5 mins i try to turn it on, it doesnt turn on.
4.) I disconnect the charger, let alone for a while and reconnect the charger and turn it on, done

Try that, if still same thing, try disconnect charger, press power button. Try changing sequence.

Use an app from playstore to store Obb files in your SD Card, the app will create a link for the file intergrate to the game, for the app name tho

Wow you're fast. Im still on 28/9. Will flash 10/02 after this. It is recommended to just dirty flash. No need gapps
Means just reboot to recovery and flash the update, no need wipe or any.

Sorry i cant remember the app name, maybe someone in here knows about it

Just latest modem, that's all. For i9500

Looks like an ancient time firmware. Better update to latest firmware. Any country will do, if got signal problem, download any malaysian firmware, extract the modem.bin and i will make a flashable zip for you. Using odin also can flash modem

When we receive updates for 4.4.4, the features will be the same, looks the same, no difference. Same when Android L hits our device. I think.

How i am bored with samsung firmware, i9500 can be said as state of the art during its time, even now it can surpass any Snapdragon 800 SoC device easily with some tweaks. Hope there is some big changes for the upcoming firmware, or am i dreaming here? Maybe.

Change camp to cyanogenmod!
