[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Bruce Wayne:
You can use any rom with good scripts like undervolting etc and good I/o schedulars with kernel. Battery doesn't actually depend on rom, it depends on the processes running in background. Also use the button if you want to say thanks, don't waste your posts for it.

THanks man..

just reply for my final ques...

pls tell me most battery efficient KERNEL and ROM according to u....

no need of gaming...

pls suggest me only 1 ROM and KERNEL... am gonna use tat nw.. now I am in Stock DDLK2
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Bruce Wayne:
Roms, I can't. I myself use deodexed ddlk2 stock. It depends on you.

Kernel I am on Hells Fusion, with sometimes switching back to stock for testing up CM7 build. HF is good (not the best, because if I say its best, someone will oppose me, and will make conflict here), so you can use HF.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] kalaishere:
Can i root and use HF kernel with my current stock Rom DDLK2 ... whether it saves battery ??
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Bruce Wayne:
Yes, why not.

Just use right governers and schedulars with proper frequecies set.

Also I am off to sleep. Will answer your other queries tommorow, sorry for that. :)

@op

On ur current rom..

I have tested all kernels and for some reason hells fusion is not the best choice as far as ur rom is concerned ... the Dev of the rom has put in the best combo possible for it.... well there r other choice but I really don't want to suggest ... pleez read about the kernel and yesterday them yourself (all devs work hard on them)

If u really want to save some battery ...

I had a guide on it .... just scroll through my threads u will find it (I have also mentioned about the right io/governers for everything)

If u want a more detailed guide u can scroll through threads by [MENTION=4792974]TingTingin[/MENTION] ... its different from mine and u can choose whichever u like ;)

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andyvdsteen:
I bought my Xperia Z almost three weeks ago, and I am very happy with this device.

The device showed me that I had a few hours left on battery, but as soon as I turned on Stamina-mode it told me I even had a few days left! (But it never really gave me these few days.)

Now I have installed CM10.1 on my rooted Xperia Z, I lost Stamina. But for me it didn't really have impact on battery life.

Battery life on my rooted CM10.1 Xperia Z is still very good.

My question: Was Stamina really improving battery life, or was it just adding placebo?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kylez:
yes it's improving battery life when in standby mode(screen is off / not using phone)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] decadan1977:
I personally think Greenify does a much better job. Without needing to turn off data.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alnikki25k:
It depends a lot on your usage patterns. If you use a lot of mobile data, it makes a huge difference. It literally turns off data when the screen is off. So it improves your battery life by that much. However, over WiFi it didn't really make much of a difference. Also, if you wake your phone up every few minutes to text, it seems to only hurt the battery as it keeps the phone awake for about a few minutes after the screen is off. So you're essentially reducing the idle time of your phone. So it's all up to how you use it.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] snakecharmer23:
Looks like our high DPI screen makes some widgets very small. I downloaded an APK for the CM10.1 lock screen and home screen widget called cLock. I placed it on my home screen but it is much smaller than I expected. It's not so small that I can't see.

[Galaxy S 4 General] omid_freesky:
What surprised me when i looked up for the root and recovery for the S4 and didn't find the easy few steps like i had with older Samsung phones in Forums here on XDA but it actually exists. why no body put it here?

i was so worried that the Exynos octa will make the samsung flagship root as hard as the rest if not harder.

galaxys4root.com has the way to do the root s4 i9500 with odin in few steps exactly like S3. you don't need to download 1.5GB pre-rooted roms or anything else big for that matter.

i don't know if i could (according to the forum law) do the complete "how to" right here or even share this, but i'm sure guys here know what to do with this

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Faluzure:
So I have 30 days from activation to add the AT&T Mobile Insurance to my plan. It costs $6.99. For those of you that have it (and used it), is it even worth it? I mean I know that if the phone breaks, I either have to pay out of pocket to get it repaired or buy a new one.

The standard warranty is 1-year, meaning if it malfunctions or anything breaks, I'm covered. But beyond that, the deductible is $199. Problem is that I have to pay $6.99 a month starting now, which in a year would cost me $84 until my default warranty is over.

I had the warranty at Sprint and I was with them for 13 years. I never once had to use it and it almost seems like flushing your money down the toilet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Jragyn:
Considering the fact that if you actually spent the cash to get yourself an insurance replacement, to my understanding, insurance replacements are refurbished devices anyways, so the real question is, are you clumsy or prone to accidents? Because thats pretty much the only difference between the free warranty, or the 6.99/mo + 199$ is that if you run it over with your car or drop it in the toilet(physical damage of any sort), you're still covered.

Personally, I think its a waste of money, but then again if you can actually afford AT&T and the products, whats another 7$?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Faluzure:
Thanks man. I guess I was just looking for an excuse not to have buyer's remorse.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] dxwilliams40:
I have it simply for theft coverage. I usually cancel after the first year. I'm a high school teacher and theft is a strong possibility.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sam2c:
I've heard many people say that you can use your home owners insurance to cover your mobile electronics for much cheaper than what ATT or squaretrade charges. I think it covers theft too. Something to look into
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] daledenton:
I work for att so ask away.

The insurance actually sends you a new replacement if they have it on hand which 99/100 times they do.

In my opinion its worth it. Just don't fall for the stupid 9.99 protection pack. Some people might tell you its all they have, but its a lie. They do offer the 6.99 insurance still.

it looks great

Not crazy about the price but that one with the blue siding looks sick!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] hollisterryann:
I've been.looking at the blue one. I decided it was worth the price. I paid $30 for neo hybrid and it feels good on phone but outside phone it feels cheap and it ain't gonna give me any protection and this one looks awesome.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] MamomaN:
Waiting for more experience :)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] chaos254:
I'll probably be getting this case once Verizon ships my phone lol

It'd be nice if you would do a follow up review once you get them :D

yes please .. thanx a lot :)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Spunjah413:
Placed one on order. I originally ordered the Spigen Slim armor, but I feel this one will protect better. Also prefer the larger lip up front. Ill update with my experience when it comes in. Thanks for the link/info OP.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] soraxd:
it looks nice, but if it's the same size as an otter, and the otter is rated for higher drops, why not just get an otter?

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ko300zx:
Ordered the orange. Was torn between this and the Slim Armor but I feel that in the event of a drop, this one is going to offer the most protection out of the two and I'm a bit wary of the Slim Armor and the button issues I've seen mentioned a few times. I'll keep an eye out for more posts on that issue and maybe get a Slim Armor down the road.

So who's going to post a review of them dropping their phone from 10 feet to see if it protects as advertised? ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ricktat:
Ok I bit on the orange. I am hoping not to buy 20 cases like I did on the GS3.

I want protective, grippy, good buttons, not too big, and looks nice. This should do the trick.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] wavrunrx:
i think ive beat you too it. :crying::eek::cool:

anyway; i bought my cygnett workmate in store yesterday (Frys Electronics in the SF bay area)

i bought the grey one as they dont have the other colors in stock;

i wanted the black one. will exchange once they have black in stock.

if you have any questions about it let me know.

i cant provide photos unfortunately as my GS4 is the only camera i have.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ThugosaurusRex:
First question, does it fit tight, or is it easy to pull the lips off?

Second, does it feel like it can handle drops, all the photos I've seen make it look kinda thin.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] wavrunrx:
it is an extremely precise fit;

after i popped it on, i was very impressed with it; everything lines up perfectly; the materials are quite firm; a hard rubber firmness..none of that soft spongy TPU junk which pulls off if you stick it into your pocket; or having the sides pull, and strech over time. no; thats not going to happen with this case.

its a 2 piece case, with 3 different materials. all three of the materials have a semi smoothness; but lack the tackiness of silicone rubber and therefore the ability to attract lint, or...'stick'.. to clothing as you slip it into your pocket.

once you assemble both pieces of it, its really a beast, i really like this case.

the lips are also pretty tall; so... i feel pretty confident you could put your phone face down on rocky asphalt and move it around; your screen would be just fine.

as for impact resistance; i have confidence in it, that's all i can say really as im not going to purposely abuse my s4; however, if that time ever comes, ill be sure and update my post here and let y'all know how it turned out :cool:

overall im impressed, and will be keeping this case.

if your serious about protecting your new baby (yes, your s4), i can easily say you should consider the WorkMate.

:good:

**edit

missed this part:

"all the photos I've seen make it look kinda thin."

no, its not thin; it definetley adds bulk to the phone; but its quite manageable.

it doesnt make your device look like a brick... just like a babied phone :)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ThugosaurusRex:
Thanks man, great answers. I'm pretty sure I'm sold on it now
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] yaqin:

I had mine fitted nicely with SGP Glass TR.

Only problem i had with this case is that the original micro usb cable could not be inserted for charging, i had to change to a smaller one.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ricktat:
So the white USB cable that came with the phone is too big to fit with this case?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] djmok:
Yes, too big. I used an old cable with smaller end to charge.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ko300zx:
the esbases

Charger doesn't fit? This can't be real life. Been waiting almost 2 weeks for this thing. Going to be quite disappointed if that's the case.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] kismou:
Yeah, the charging cable doesn't fit. I modified the case by making the opening slightly wider with a small knife. Took like 5minutes and now the original cable also fits. It's only the harder outer shell that is too small.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ThugosaurusRex:
Sounds like poor quality control, as my charger fits perfect.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] hollisterryann:
Get mine today. Hopefully I don't have to modify the charging hole. You shouldn't have to fix a case that cost $30.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] hollisterryann:
Just got my case. It's feels good in your hands. Looks awesome. The charger for my ibolt dock even fits. That charger wouldn't even fit in my spigen neo hybrid case. You guys must have a defect. The case has a huge lip to stop screen for hitting on surfaces. The lip is Bigger then any ballistic or otterbox I've ever had
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ricktat:
Where did you get yours from?

Are the too small charger holes from a first batch sold in stores already in the US?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] hollisterryann:
I bought mine off their website. Charger hole is perfect for my chargers. The one I was worried about was the ibolt. That charger is thick
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ricktat:
I should have mine in a couple of days.

I am hoping this will end my case hoarding but I doubt it.

I bought a black Otterbox Commuter just to see how there were this time around. 100 times better than the Galaxy S3 version but I am sure the flat screen and non curve helped that. If the Otterbox was available in a color I liked now, it would be nearly perfect.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] hollisterryann:
Case in orange
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] hollisterryann:
Blue
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] hollisterryann:
Got my case home and sure enough the charger doesn't fit. But as described you just gotta scrape off the plastic cause it's short the long way. The case will look factory. Doesn't look like I even modified it.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Spunjah413:
Got mine in the Dark/Light Grey color. Fantastic case. A little thicker than my Spigen slim armor, but you can tell it will def survive a descent drop. I do like the lip on it, as it is fairly large.

Fits perfectly with my MIME Ghost Glass, and still has lip room.

I ordered from mobilefun.co.uk last week.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] h3lluvaninjuhneer:
Just came across this: http://www.phonearena.com/news/Cygnett-WorkMate-Evolution-Samsung-Galaxy-S4-case-hands-on_id42786

I think combining the light grey TPU inner layer with the orange outer layer would look nice on a white S4. (I haven't gotten my S4 yet and I'm still on the fence as to color choice.)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] strossus84:
Just got this case today. It feels really nice in hand but the volume and power button does not feel clicky or responsive. The posts about the charger not fitting is right, the outer shell hole is not cut to fit the original cable but the TPU hole fits. Sigh Im going to have to cut the shell just to make it fit :(. I think this case adds the most lip on the face other than the otterbox which is nice Also the speakers actually work when you lay it down on a table! I found most other cases would muffle the sound but this one doesn't dampen the sound at all.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] hollisterryann:
I agree 100% what you said
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] chaos254:
I was going to purchase this case but I think its ridiculous to spend $30 on a case that has to be modified to accept the stock charger. They really dropped the ball on this one.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] hollisterryann:
It's worth it tho. It takes less then 5 minutes to shave down the sides with a steak knife. You can't even tell it was done manually. This is the best case I ever had. I was iffy on the looks based by pictures and video. In person it looks awesome and feels great.. it's a hard case ...feels better then the neo hybrid I bought for the same price
