Hi,
I got S4 I9500 on 27th April and the battery was fine and was draining about 4-8 % during night and that seemed normal. Then I did an OTA firmware update to Android 4.2.2 XXUAMDE and since then the phone started draining around 15 % during nights and in comparison it drained a lot during standby. I decided to do a factory reset and now it seems fine. I read in several forum that OTA update messes up the battery life and we have to do a factory reset to fix that. Is there any way to avoid a factory restore every time I do an OTA update or is there any way to update it by connecting it to a PC like samsung KIES, does that prevent such issues ? I'm coming back to android after using apple for 2 years, so I'm kind of a noob
Thank you !
I have a 9505, my battery life reduced a lot too when I updated to ME2. Such a disappointment. I did a factory reset but it didn't fix my problem, though I had flashed back to stock firmware after playing with root.
Is there a out of the box rom without the update that I could try flashing?
I had received a small OTA update (about 26 MB) on my i9500 one day which upgraded it from MJ5 to MJ9, but I was facing severe battery issues since then. Like, it would take over 3 hours to charge completely and battery would completely drain in 7 hours even when device is idle and power saving mode is enabled, often it was discharging even when plugged. Then things got more serious, like it wouldn't even charge at all, battery was stuck at 1% for several hours. I somehow managed to get it to 27% and then decided to downgrade back to MJ5, using the firmware from SamMobile. I flashed it with Odin but then things went wrong, the process failed, and my device won't boot at all. All it says is,"Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again". I tried again to flash it, but same results.
There was essential data in my device, which wasn't backed up. I want to recover my device without losing any data. That's the major priority. And a minor one is to try to resolve the battery issues.
I need the help urgently, anything anyone could tell me would be highly appreciated.
Ok this is what happned !
2 days back I received the OTA kitkat update for my galaxy s4 enoxys version. I downloaded the update but during installation of the update an error popped up and installation failed. My phone restarted and I redownloaded d update. The update process was successful the second tym. But now I am experiencing a crazy battery drain. I read somewhere about the google services draining battery for 4.2.2. So I turned d services off and I am still experiencing battery drain. I havent done a factory reset on my phone. Should I do that ? Or the problem is sumthin else? Need help

go to sammobile.com look up your firmware and reflash it
roms
try calibrating the battery as you can calibrate any Li-Ion battery by draining it completely and then charging it to 100%.
if didn't work i think factory reset is your first option Or go to android development and find a rom that suits you
I just got my G2 and decided to root it then flash the cloudy g3 1.2 ROM which went fine. Following that, I installed the Xdabbeb camera mod which caused the phone to enter a bootloop. Because of that, I wiped the system, data, and cache, then reflashed the G3 ROM (with the kitkat baseband).
When I was on TWRP though, it said the battery was on 100% when it was actually on about 60%. So after flashing the ROM and booting it up, the battery percentage showed 100% then started dropping very quickly. I lost 20 percent in half an hour of use.
To do a battery calibration, you must charge the device to 100% and if I do this, it shows the charge at 100% but in reality it isn't. How am I meant to reset the battery stats completely? I don't mind resetting things as I've only just got the phone.
Also would someone mind downloading a battery calibration app and charging the phone to 100% then telling me what the voltage is at 100%?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I went back to stock by flashing this KDZ "Hungary OPEN 16GB D80230a_00" but i've noticed that my battery drains so fast, i checked the battery graph, and there's the android system that keep draining my battery
i did some research on the web and most of solution were about doing a factory reset so i did it with no luck, the same battery!
so i'd appreciate if there's any suggested solutions
