SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 I9500 "16GB, Aurora Red"
Hello people
Buying my samsung s4 a week ago, it came with firmware version XWUBMEA, living in the middle east "exactly in dubai", that was the latest update available for the phone, so i had to update it using Odin to the version "XWUBMG1" which is the update for India "INU"
here's a list of the issues I'm experienced before and experiencing after the update,
On XWUBMEA firmware:
Battery drained fast, even when the phone is on standby
phone over heated a lot, reaching (30-35 c) just surfing the web, and upto(40 c ) if playing games.
On XWUBMG1 firmware:
Battery lasts pretty well on this firmware, depends on the phone usage, but starts decreasing when the phone starts heating.
Heating problems did decrease but it's still there, ( 26 or 27 c) minimum on phone standby, it reaches (30 c) if i used the phone for 10 mins or more, and as for gaming it reaches ( 35 - 37 c ) sometimes, which makes it really uncomfortable for holding it.
1) Anyone experienced such problems on both the firmwares? if yes, please mention them along with firmware version.
2) Anyone experienced them on the MEA firmware before, but the MG1 firmware fixed them, like the phone became completely stable ?
3) Is there any firmware that you recommend me using ?
4) Do you think that this is a hardware or a software problem ?
5) Is there any firmware update expected soon ?
6) What do you recommend me to do ?
and finally
7) Is there anyone who bought the SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 "I9500" and found it completely flawless, no heating, no lags, no battery drain, like in a perfect condition!
If yes, please mention your firmware version and the place of purchase.
Thanks to all those who will be spending their time reading and hopefully posting back!!
