got nfc in the battery? my bro bought momax n it doesnt have nfc in the battery. so cant use battery now.

That question should be directed to them ler   But to me maybe they wanna maximize the battery only potential so they excluded the nfc
Ive used AOSP based rom on my i9500 back in the day and i had never faced that issue. Camera and Video capture quality is not as good as stock camera app.

whenever i try to launch the gallery app, it super slow reload the picture. any idea how i can fix it?

True, so just need to live with it now. My LG G2 also got devs ported the stock camera app to AOSP and fully support already. Dunno why there is no such thing in S4 league.

Btw MIUI camera sux

Very hard to say, mine 4 hours plus with light games, FB, email, whatapps and 45 minutes of songs...

Yours is i9505 or? i9505 can do better than that for sure

Can use stock-based custom ROMs.
I noticed when comparing battery life, most people just mention SOT and usage but no brightness... surely brightness plays a big role?

Most of the time people uses the Auto Brightness features, in which we cant really tell the actual brightness level as it changes varies to light condition.

my brightness around 10%.. i just can't stand too bright..

1 year battery almost end of life already. What you usually use? 3 hours usable very short for me..

i try yesterday, battery fully charged, wifi on with power saving mode on. 100% to 15 % i play games Clash of clans, facebook, beach bomb a while.

i play non stop and it last for 2hr 15min(SOT) like that, i think max 2hr30min +-, new battery is about 3hr max if i do the same thing.

Saw news about oppo coming out new model that claim slimmest in the market this also telling our wallet will also slimmer...

Miui ROM. Played Jelly Rush for around 1 hour like that. 

FW corrupt, if i do factory rest ok o nt?

so far 2day auto reboot once when making a phone call, tu tu a while then no sound, c screen samsung logo

if update...

more custom rom.inkambing

slowly wait la, won't be march 2015.

waiting for custom rom now.

Guys, looks like my Samsung s4 is close to its death. Now the WiFi is not working. Planning to change the whole motherboard.

Can you guys recommend a place to change it? Preferably at digimall PJ.

Thanks..

damn it, now i've a major problem.

my s4 keep tells me that "no sim inserted", force me to restart.

anyone with that?

change sim then now ok already now.

but I reset my s4, thinking now should I just immediately install custom rom.

faster recommend new custom rom for i9505.

my s4 was dead yesterday. It keeps on boot looping at the s4 logo. I can't even boot my device into recovery mode nor download mode. Headed to samsung service center and they advised me to change the motherboard which cost me around RM719.

i asked samsung pyramid regarding my unit can't detect sim issue, and i also asked around a few shops at pyramid, feedback is:

1) you root your phone, hence this problem.

2) motherboard spoilt, because you root.

3) once you root, slowly your parts will spoilt.

so, what do you guys think?
