With some amount of surrounding noise in the environment , i got a reading between 80 - 84 db .

Can someone please check and confirm ? :cowboy:

Background noise was coming 35 - 36 db and the max it went when I called myself from another phone was 81 db..

It may get louder when in pocket or a purse as there is a feature somwhere in settings. .
[Galaxy S 4 General] sasha007:
That means minez fine ? Doesn't that seem low to you ? :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S 4 General] danveer:
Comparing it to my previous phone which also had wolfsan dac and had spuercurio magic done to it, it feels fine.

Wait for supercurio to do his magic again and you may get 100% increase in sound without loosing quality..

Besides I always prefer head phones instead of external speakers...:D

Till we get perseus ready or the compiling is cm is finished, here's a puzzle for every one...;)

It has been haunting me for nights and then I thought who can be more intelligent then people present at xda:beer:

So here's the question

A lady buys goods worth rs.200 from shop(shopkeeper selling the goods with zero profit)

The lady gives him 1000rs.note.

Shopkeeper gets the change from the next shop and keeps 200rs.with him and give back 800 rs.to the lady.

Later the shopkeeper of next shop comes with the 1000rs. Note saying duplicate and takes the money back.

How much loss the shopkeeper had?

Solve this.....
[Galaxy S 4 General] razer1224:
Nothing

Because he was too foolish to take the duplicate notes :p

No hiccups

i flash and let you know guys
[Galaxy S 4 General] Paras Lehana:
Loss of goods = - 200

Money that was returned = - 1000

Money that he borrowed = 1000 - 800 = 200

Total Loss = (200 - 200 - 1000) = - 1000

Thus, the magnitude is INR 1000 (Total Loss)
[Galaxy S 4 General] seltaeb:
1000 (goods worth 200 and 800 in cash), but he'll be fine if he can palm off that fake note to someone :P
[Galaxy S 4 General] Mandeep148:
I m weak in maths. .

But I think answer is.. shop keeper loss =-1200

Haha dont laugh on me please :p

And

After lossing I will find that where is customer live, if he near...

If I easy found then I will pin his 2 tyres of his bike.. and stole his petrol :p
[Galaxy S 4 General] Paras Lehana:
The shopkeeper had got a genuine Rs. 200 note from his neighbouring shopkeeper.

Thus, - 1200 + 200 = - 1000
[Galaxy S 4 General] Mandeep148:
Shopkeeper returns to changer Rs.1000 so loss(-1000) + (-200) = -1200

Hahahah

Sorry I m poor in math..
[Galaxy S 4 General] Paras Lehana:
It's no problem lol.

Your calculation is almost on the right track but don't forget Rs. 200 that had provided by the other shopkeeper. It'd been with him until the other shopkeeper asked for the exchange.

heating issue while using camera

My S4 heats upto 47C (external thermistor) when I use camera to click only 5-6 pictures.. Is this the case with you guys here or is it my device only? I know of heating issues in S4 and I am experiencing them too but this particular issue really bothers me as camera is not a heavy application. The phone cools down in 4-5 minutes after closing the camera.

PLEASE HELP!
[Galaxy S 4 General] Paras Lehana:
I was going to add a lol in brackets there :P

I didn't want people to get confused between the genuine and fake notes. In my calculation, I didn't consider the fake note and it made the calculation easier.

temperature query

I have been observing my phone temperatures and they are as-

1. While charging.. 46C (ext thermistor) and 36C (battery) for the first 50% charge. Afterwards, it cools down.

2. Using Camera- Batt temp- 33 C, external thermistor 46C

3. Browsing net, google play, and facebook app for 30-40 mins.. batt temp- 35C and external thermistor- 52C

4. Normal usage (going thru settings and stuff)- 33C battery and 45C ext thermistor

Have not played any game yet. But temp will be higher than this I guess, if I do.

Are these temperatures normal by any chance? What is the normal temperatures for S4 guys?

What about Rs. 200 that had been kept by the shopkeeper. He gives other Shopkeeper Rs. 1000 and had a loss of goods worth Rs. 200.

-1000 - 200 = - 1200

Now, he'd also kept the 200 rupees notes the other shopkeeper had provided him.

- 1200 + 200 = 1000

Noy same price..I bought for 32.9k from dubai..the reason for sacrificing the processing power is to get fast updates and developer support..you might be knowing, galaxy s4 google edition have same specs as that of i9505. .so I ll get the latest android faster than the i9500,as soon as google releases it..isn't that uber cool :cool: ;)
[Galaxy S 4 General] danveer:
At that price you surely beat us and as far as warranty is concerned, its nothing major to worry...;)

Definately with the snapdragon variant you will get great cm support but in the end it won't matter..

Samsung will update this device for the next 2 years and after that its time for upgrade....

Besides there is still some chance we'll also get cm..;)
[Galaxy S 4 General] bibymon:
I know samsung will support for around 2 years,but ll have to wait for long time to get the update after the release of new android versions..on the other hand i9505 will get the update fast as the s4 GE is of same specs..

Hi friends,

am unable to copy files to my memory card from pc.

I have sandisk 32GB UHS card in my S4 and use ubuntu 13.04 on my lappy.

I used MTP, phone gets detected, i can see the contents in phone memory and SD card.

I am not that sure on the theory 9505 will get faster update unless its the Google edition I am never used an S series phone before but have the Note10.1 and there the pattern has been Germany gets the first update and then its a you are lucky pattern but US even then use to be somewhere far far away. So not to certain on your theory as S4 germany again has got the update first
[Galaxy S 4 General] bala_gamer:
fast updates??? as if both are totally different variants lol....... both will get everything similar probably in a few days difference .
[Galaxy S 4 General] bibymon:
It will be more than a few day difference as s4 GE is of same specs as that of i9505
[Galaxy S 4 General] bala_gamer:
updates for ge edition will be managed by google and not by samsung if im not wrong, so its not going to affect anything
[Galaxy S 4 General] seltaeb:
INR 52,900 (with free accessories up to 4.5k after bargaining). I opted for a 1 TB portable HDD as the accessory.

This is the i7 quad core version. There's also an i5 dual version for INR 40k.

I think the i9505 has been getting updates a bit earlier than the i9500 so far. But yeah, I don't think there will be a significant gap.

---------- Post added at 11:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:59 AM ----------

Nope. The GE is stock AOSP and has very little to do with the i9505 stock TW-based firmware. The Samsung firmware deviates significantly from stock AOSP.

However, the GE should help the i9505 CM cause. So if you are running AOSP stuff on the i9505 you will indeed get community updated CM ROMs earlier.
[Galaxy S 4 General] bibymon:
Me too believe that it will be by google.. I was talking about vanilla android :)

Who doesn't like to have(or even try) the latest version of android as soon as Google releases..at least for a couple of days for checking whether it's worth to sacrifice the touch with features
