this question is for every one of you, who have posted in the thread, above me & also to other people using the GT-I9500.
I am very much interested in buying the S4 Indian version but read a few issues on the net which have stopped me from buying the phone till date. the issues are :
1. Questionable Exynos5 chipset & the big.LITTLE not switching between the 2 Quad Core Processors resulting in the next issues
2. Overheating problem.
3. Sudden Battery Drain.
I'd like to know if these issues were experienced by almost all the GT-I9500 owners and, have the issues been taken care of by the latest Firmware Updates.
Thanks :fingers-crossed:

I did see the link u gave and honestly i dont understand this much abt the phone i m a heavy user and keep changing my devices frequently last 4 days i m using HTC ONE and will be back again with S4 cmng week as waitng for I9505 Variant
All that i can say is S4 and Htc one is by far the best & fastest devices i have used and both has its pros and cons and i still like bth of them
If u want more features S4 u get if u want better build and more optimized software HTC one is for u
By no mean i m saying S4 is not good just that we still need some more updates so the devices becomes best
And Ya this is the first time Samsung is releasing the updates pretty fast like 3 times in month so u can guess they are working hard to sort out all the issues people are complaining abt the S4
Hope this helps

Hiten,
If you are getting GT-I9505, nothing like it. for me it's the best phone at the moment. The problem is that it's not available in India. I have thought of buying it from the US & getting the product shipped through comgateway.com. that's only a thought till now. How are you getting the S4 shipped to you?

Hiten,
how much are you paying for the i9505 in the US? as I said earlier, I am researching my options on US based sites & might get it via websites like comgateway, ishopinternationl etc.

This is not a bug. This is Samsung's way of registering your SIM on their device and will happen each time you flash 4.2.2 firmware and boot into it for the first time. When the SIM setup appears, your phone or current SIM will automatically send a message to this number
It's really annoying and makes me wanna smack the people who put this is in, but sadly this isn't a bug

Unfortunately, that message is being sent once a month, and I'm running 4.3.
I emailed Samsung about this and you couldn't believe the lamest reply that I received back.

Hello everybody ,
As many people are waiting from months for this,
I just suddenly fount it coming
The Android 4.3 is now in SA, and I think the skipped countries will get it also
Downloading right now ... :good:
I too was excited when I could upgrade to it.
Now I wish I could downgrade.
I hope your experience is more pleasant.

That's good to hear, I haven't read many positive reviews so far.
My issues I've encountered:
Phone crashing hard every 24 hours. This happened for the first 5 days - it'd crash so hard that someone else could ring my phone, they'd hear a ringtone (i.e. the modem was still working) but the phone wouldn't ring. The lock screen would show the time the phone had crashed. So it might be 8:30pm, but the lock screen would still show 6:23pm.
This issue seems to have resolved itself recently, the only thing I did was to clean the contacts of the SIM and SD Card. I'm doubtful that made any difference, but I haven't had the same issue since.
Music skipping while screen off Lots of people report this with 4.3. It only happens once every 5 minutes, so it's not a major, but it's still annoying while you're out walking/jogging etc. Just a little stutter. This never happened with 4.1.2
GPS will crash, requiring a reboot This has been happening quite often. My "fix" for this now is to leave GPS turned off via the widget and only turn it on when needed. Not a major hassle, but I could leave the GPS on all the time with 4.1.2. With 4.3 if I do that, at some stage the GPS will crash, the GPS icon will show it's locked on but no programs that use the GPS can get any reading from it. As I said, reboot fixes it.
Contacts App Slow & Takes CPU A right pain in the arse this one. I fixed it, at least I think I have, by clearing the data of the Contacts app. You don't lose anything except locally stored numbers (who uses those?) because everything resyncs from online accounts. This seems to have helped stop the Contacts app being as laggy as it was, though I only did this recently so I'm not sure if it's a long term fix.
Overall the phone is more sluggish. Sometimes it'll take 10-15 seconds to turn on when I press the power button, that is for the lock screen to appear. Answering a phone call can take 2 slides, the first one won't register.
I didn't do a factory reset because, as I've stated elsewhere, I think this is a myth that doesn't really solve anything, it just appears to.
Anyway, I hope your experiences are different. If I could go back to 4.1.2 easily I would, but of course once you go forward there's no going back.
Or I could install a "Custom ROM" hacked together by some kiddie, then I get to spend all my days posting "Which ROM has the best battery life, I've flashed 16 different ones but I can't decide, hurp-a-durp"
"I didn't do a factory reset because"
yeah complaining without factory rest is totally dumb :silly: , do full wipe and try again
BTW i never had any crash on 4.3 not even with the leaked version

Why does a factory reset work?
Oh, you have NO IDEA and are just repeating like a sheep what everyone else says?
Yea, that's totally dumb.

Hey,hello the and welcome to my post.
I want to ask you guys how long the Grand Prime update will take until it will arrive in all places (I'm from Romania).
Will it take more than a month ? I talked to some assistance guys at the samsung live chat but they've told me that i have 4.4.4 (WOW,BREAKING NEWS...) and just some other retard things like : "you will have it once it arrives".
Well,ok,we know how the big corporatons treat their customers,but we're not here to talk about that.
For an example,how long did your mid range phone recieved an update after the first country recieved it?
How long you guys think will take to recieve the Sm-G530fz update in Romania?
Thanks .

Actuall I can't have a problem 'cos I haven't recieved Oreo yet. Maybe that may be considered as a problem
As much as I follow, Oreo is firstly released for KSA deviced that mine is but I still couldn't get it.
By the way, I did a package before for Volte but I wiped cache.

I also bought NOTE FE from KSA extrastore. Unfortunately after upgrading to OREO I’m having Network Signal issue alot. Have tried all possible steps like resetting to factory default settings and rest network settings but nothing seems to work.
How’s ur phone responding? Secondly what’s ur phone Android version?
Please share your experience.
Hello bro did the issue fix? I bought in KSA as well and having same issue with network. I'm on 8.0.0
Got this amazing device a month ago, upgraded to android 8.0 since then and all work great. No network or other problems. Maybe I'm lucky... but the device is butter smooth so far.
FYI I bought it from souq.com

Glad to hear that. How's the condition now? Not even once you face the network issue sinve 8.0? If that's the case then i guess the issue in my case is hardware related

Sorry mate, they didn't tell me any feedback just told me the issue has been resolved. One thing would like to add is that before there was only Network Signal issue it got resolved by them when it came back they created another issue with S-Pen. It was not working properly so had to give them back. So on second time all issues were fixed.
Advise, Before bringing it back with u from service center, do make sure to perform Samsung Hardware Check to avoid such issues.
Cheers...
