Seriously, all the 4.3 issues i had with my s4 were fixed by the indian mj9 firmware.

phone hangs from time to time and sometimes when i use camera phone freezes totally.
i've to pull out the baterry and restart.
just got the s4 gti9505 and starting to regret it.
No real issue's for me, but i've been using only custom roms.
The correct firmware does help.

Totally happy with my S4. Have had it from May and never had a single issue or FC.
With root and all bloatware frozen, I can easily do a full day with 4-5 hours screen time.
So I'm in no hurry for any 4.3 or 4.4 update whatever ... You know "Don't fix it if it's working" :victory:
That's true.
I installed a complete new firmware. Working fine now.
Had a problem with my sd card ,but seems that my sd card was defect

It's one of the older updates i guess so the battery life should ideally be an issue and a lot worse than 4.1.1.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
The 4.1.2 BTU update for the UK is XXDMB2 , its PDA is N7100XXDMB2, this makes it a bit behind XXDMB4.

I would. You might get lower battery life for a while, but this has the SDS fix in it as far as I know, and I'd MUCH rather be protected from my device turning into a paperweight than just running low on juice...
And sure, I could use a custom ROM, but I happen to like the stock ones. Serves all my needs perfectly.

Some guys attribute the increased battery use to the media scanner which runs randomly and drains the battery life
Also i believe that the screen brightness at max setting had been increased to like 300% of what it was in 4.1.1

The 4.1.1 ROM's have a critical bug that can cause your device to randomly just die, for no apparent reason, and it's not fixable once it happens. You'd have to return it to Samsung. This is the SDS bug, Sudden Death Syndrome.
The 4.1.2 ROM's have a fix for this, as do pretty much all the custom ROM's as well.
Personally, I'd much rather have reduced battery life and relief from the worry that my device could just randomly die.
Can you please post the modem version to this update.

Thanks for the info, i'm certain that is what happened to my phone. I was on 4.1.1 stock uk rom. Its been fixed by samsung now, just waiting for it to be sent back, they said they replaced system board. Be interesting to see if they have updated to 4.1.2 for me.
I was looking at the updates to the s4 and saw the update thinking that it was for the ee s4 with disastrous consequences. I now have the t mobile set up with my ee card. Do not have wifi just wont switch on and it has 4g in the Window where you would find the normal 3g logo. There are also a couple of issues. So my main question is where would I find the stock rom or the update to put it back to normal

Sounds like it is time for a call to Sprint and make them fix it. What I would do if not rooted.

If your network was unstable you wouldnt be able to get any signal at all but it wouldnt make your phone reboot. Have you tried factory reseting your phone??

Whatever is going on its in the kernel i flashed the MDB kernel and everything is working perfectly the only problem im having know is my phone says custom software.

Dude you ain't the only one. The MF9 update has been a major pain the @$$ for a lottt of people. I wonder if Sprint is working on a new update. Hopefully push it out before the end of September. Although I am really liking MF9, I am probably in the minority. My device is smooth as hell and great battery life. Just yesterday I went 20hrs with 3hrs of on screen time!
Im having a similar problem. Random reboots when data is connected. I first thought it was the connection in my area that was causing the problem to (NV just started in Cleveland) until I encountered reboots while on WiFi. It doesn't matter what app I'm using as long is it uses the internet connection my phone may freeze vibrate two to three times then reboot. I even reapplied the MF9 update and the same problem exist.
I'm completely stock!
Thank You Based God!

We must be lucky. I keep reading about all these issues, but MF9 had been awesome for me. Not a single problem, and definitely much better than MDL.

+1 on that. Been on MF9 stock rooted since I got the phone a couple weeks ago and all has been well. I wonder if it could be a hardware issue mixed with something thats in the MF9 update. Sound crazy to anyone?

Yeah it looks like it is for sure the MF9 kernel I flashed mdl kernel and everything is good on that kernel. As soon as I odin mf9 and connect to data it happens again thanks for all the responses

Check your source for the MF9 kernel you have and try downloading and installing a different one.

Well if you have root...try to use a custom firmware.....if you still have warranty you could claim it....best bet is firmware change....unless its a hardware issue....but in this case I think its a software issue....so check into it

Hi, i've got my hands on a Galaxy S4 GT-I9505 running 4.2.2 MH6. Im updating it at the moment. but it reboots atleast 2 to 3 times a day. for no reason? it's not modded but AVG is installed. could that be the problem?
Can you make screenshots about your app launcher and sys info? Looks like some strange apps led to that. Or you can try to flash a Perseus kernel(or Adam,up to u).

Updated it to 4.3 but the problems are still there, it's under warranty. i noticed now that there was another problem. Network signal goes off then after some seconds it reboots as well. Should i turn it in again? it was just in for screen replacement! problems started after the screen was replaced! no problems before! it's a freind of mine that has this phone! and no he isn't going to mod his phone.
Anyone?

As already mentioned in other threads it's most likely that's the battery that needs to be changed due to a series of bad batteries that was shipped with the galaxy S4.
try it out with another battery and your problem will be solved
