Hi darktitor

I have got a bug that the mobile data was not working...

Any way how to fix it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Just Another User:
My old phone broke and I had to run out and get a new one on short notice. I went with the Galaxy S4 from a T-Mobile store (SGH-M919).

I am happy with the phone overall, but I place great importance on getting the best value (I don't want to pay the same money for an inferior product). After doing some research, I've found the "8-core" GT-I9500 available on Amazon for roughly the same price. It seems that the Exynos version is more powerful and will have better battery life (compared in this video). The drawback, of course, is that it doesn't have LTE support (although it should work on HSPA).

In addition, now there's the "nexus" version with an unlocked bootloader coming down the pike. My previous phone also had stock Android (HTC Desire-Z / T-mobile G2), and I was extremely happy with it, especially the speed of updates and the fact that I was always getting new features OTA.

So, should I keep the version I have, or get another one and return this phone?

I want to make sure I'm getting the best experience, would giving up LTE support slow down my internet noticeably? Or is T-Mobile HSPA fast enough?

Any difference between the versions if I'm traveling internationally (I can unlock the T-mobile version after 60 days, so that's not an issue, I'm talking about band support, particularly in China)

Should I even consider the stock android / Google version? If I keep the one I have, I plan to root it and will probably use a custom ROM, and it seems there are plenty around for this version, so is the Google unlocked bootloader even an advantage? (only indication it is was is some of the posts in this thread, indicating that the Google version will get updates faster but that the S4's advanced sensors won't work on it). Then again it's also speculated they have the same hardware, so if that's true I could just flash my phone to the Google version and there would be no difference.

Note: I'm not looking to change to another model of phone besides the Galaxy S4. The HTC One is less powerful, has no SD support, and a non-replacable battery, otherwise I would have chosen it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kid Poker:
Rumor has it, that the "nexus" version, is based off the SGH-M919. Just the software is different. So in theory, once the nexus version drops, the modders would be able to reverse engineer the software and make it so that we can flash it onto the T-Mobile version. I'm not sure about having the 8-core GT-I9500. People are saying it isn't truly an octacore phone, nor will we ever need all the cores active at the same time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
The octa core is two quad core chips put together. I highly doubt it's THAT much better than ours. I personally have no issues with mine. Honestly, I think you're getting more with the T-Mobile variant. You can unlock it and use it on any GSM carrier. I would keep what you have. This phone rocks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] skyblue34:
hot can i unlock my sgh-m919 tmobile phone

Hi elsbb,

How can i understand that my M919 is locked?

I put my diffrent carrier SIM (AVEA) its not asking unlock code.

Thanks for your help...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] W.Feather:
1) No your browsing wont be slowed down significantly, but not a feature I would personally give up

2) Not that Im aware of, however the T-Mobile variant I think has better band support overall, cannot remember 100% over the top of my head

3) Not really, its rumored to be hardware wise the same as the T-Mo variant.....Also the T-Mo variant which you have is bootloader unlocked already, not sure why you put that as strong point for the Stock Android variant?

Overall I would say stick with what you have, support wise your better off than the international variant (if your into custom roms, development should be stronger overall for the US variants, And the Google version offers nothing over what you can get with 10 min of your time with the phone you have currently.

-W.Feather
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Just Another User:
Thanks everyone who responded for the useful info. I now feel confident about keeping the M919. It's not worth giving up LTE for the tiny improvement in performance (and less custom ROM support) of the quad core, and since the M919 has an unlocked bootloader already, I don't think there's any reason to get the Google version.

I can't personally confirm it, but this thread may have the info you're looking for.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] W.Feather:
If you have inserted another carriers sim (that is not your own), and it still functions with data, voice, and text, it is sim unlocked.

The performance gains would be little if any in real world usage, battery life would be better by a small amount IIRC, however I am personally able to go two days or more with low usage, or a day without issues with heavy streaming and ~3hr screen on time, YMMV

I unboxed my phone after work last night, rooted it, and installed a custom rom and kernel. I charged the phone to 100% then powered it off at 1 am, then went to bed. I got up this morning, turned the phone on and it was already at 85%. Should I odin back to stock MDL and start over?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wolfgrrl:
What ROM did you load? Is it Hyperdrive? There are posts in that thread that discuss 3minit mod and the battery being stuck at 85% when it is actually charged at 100%.

Im charging at 640

No NFC testing yet
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] fosser2:
I purchased this wireless charger from ebay. It fits pretty well with almost no bulge at all. You have to literally be feeling for a "warp" in the plastic to see it. Using the charging utility I also see 640. Something tells me that charging utility is not properly reporting the amps like it should be. The charger that I am using is available here. I can say that wireless charging is amazing to have and makes life a ton easier.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] galaxy808:
I just got the metrans as well, I noticed the same things.

the bulge is almost non-existant, I'm still waiting for the WiQiQi version that I ordered from their indiegogo campaign.

the contacts don't seem to hold on well I guess that's why the tape is there. also the marking on the receiver says 640mA so that's right.

I would be worried if it was outputting more than the rated amps.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] bogdi1988:
Can we also add more info on NFC functionality? Would be helpful if that was specified... :)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] nismo35:
great idea. I just added that to OP
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] knarfl1:
Using Metrans receiver and generic charge pad.

I peeled of the exterior labels to make it thin add possible.

Visually the bump is barely visible, but it's very noticeable when attempting to use the phone while it's on a flat surface.

When charging back of the phone gets hot to the touch.

Ordered yijieneng (sp) receiver that promises no bump.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Likwidflux:
Waiting on my WiQiQi too... I wish they gave an update :(

WiQiQi products are receivers and charger pads that you can get on eBay from Chinese sellers for cheap.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] galaxy808:
has anyone confirmed that the wiqiqi receivers are the same as the link you mentioned?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] lambstone:
Deductive reasoning.

Wiqiqi was delayed. Released only after the Chinese Aftermarket receiver was released. They look identical. 1+1=2
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] galaxy808:
if that was the case then im sure everyone including myself would not be too happy if it was just a generic Yienji (sp) receiver.

We'll see when I finally receive it.

anywho, I tried the metrans on my friend's S4 the bulge is hardly noticeable on the white. but the crappy part is that it would not fit all the way on the Spigen Slim Armor case.

That means it wont work on my Neo Hybrid. I'm gonna have to sell this receiver, anyone wants it hit me up lol, it's already in the states.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] lambstone:
Mod it. I had a "thick" receiver which I pealed off all non essential parts and it is now thin. REALLY THIN. Will post pictures later.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] kms108:
This is true, it's just a rebadged of the chinese version, i'm sure if someone that coulds open the unit, the circuit is made by yijieneng, and there is no way yijieneng is owned by monsterwatts.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vw671:
Got my Metrans transmitter yesterday...still waiting for my receiver for the S4. Tested it with my old S3 and worked great.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] tool1075:
Amps?

What is the highest amperage, typical, that a wirless charging base will deliver?

Are we talking 650mA? Or 1A? Or 2A?

I think I saw a picture of someone selling a receiver (the part you put in the phone) that indicated a 1A rating. What about the base stations?

If you could get a receiver that could dump more than 1A.... would the base stations supply more than 1A?

Just looking for the thinnest, fastest charger. Know what I mean?

Thanks guys.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] kms108:
Most transmitter states the output upto 1A, and receiver also upto 1A, but I have a receiver which I get 1698mAh, so it's either the apps galaxy charging current is incorrct or the charging unit can output more current.

It has also been mentioned that the amount of current is limited by the phone, not the receiver.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] open1your1eyes0:
For anyone who ordered the WiQiQi from Vivealive this is the receiver and pad that they send:

NFC works! (but not through the receiver, just the lower half of the battery that it doesn't cover)

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Parafly:
Can anyone confirm NFC working with Metrans?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] brizey:
Did not work for me, but it did for others. I even took the cover off and touched a known working tag to the battery. I had to shift it out of the way to the point that it would not fit under the cover to get nfc to work.

Also, I was able to put my neo hybrid on with receiver installed.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] alphadog00:
Is it possible to "glue" or attache the antenna extension and the receiver to the back cover (the way the oem charging back is)? This would make it easier to swap batteries.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] azibux1:
I assume this would work ... I don't see why it wouldn't providing you line it up correctly
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Likwidflux:
Do any of the wireless chargers work with a case on? Any of you using a case?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] brizey:
My Metrans works with a neo hybrid (which is admittedly a pretty thin case).
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] FrayAdjacent:
Got my WiQiQi setup tonight and brought it to work. The receiver goes in very easily, but doesn't seem like the contact pins snap or click into place. I guess they just set there and make contact by being pressed against the contacts by the case. There is NO discernible bulge. I like it.

The charging plate is pretty thin, probably .5" or so (don't have a measuring tape or ruler) and is pretty light. It has a circular power connector and comes with a cable that can plug into a USB charger or port. It does not have a charger of it's own. No worries, I have four different USB chargers here.

Put the receiver in the phone and set up the charging plate on a 1.5A charger so that it definitely has plenty of power. I know the total current to the phone will be somewhat less, but you have to start with more.

When I got to work, the phone was around 70% charged. The phone saw the charging and the light on the charging plate came on green.

The weirdness happens at about 99% - Every few minutes the phone wakes up, like it lost the wireless charge signal, then got it back (like it was unplugged from power, then plugged back in). It seems to be random so far. If this keeps happening, it will be quite annoying, since I intend to place the charger next to my bed so the phone can charge while I sleep. The screen turning on lights up the whole farking room, and I don't want that.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] dixit:
Man I got the same problem. I got the same thing about 1week ago and it does the same annoying wake up beep every 1min or so when it gets around 96% for me.

I notice the charging pad has the charge light go off then come back on when it does this. I've tried different USB chargers and still same issue. Repositioned the receiver even taped it down. Still same damn thing.

Emailed Monster watts but they have yet to reply to me.

I recorded a video of this happening just incase they don't believe me.

Dixit
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] open1your1eyes0:
Standard charging procedure happening here. As soon as it hits 100% it disconnects the charge for a moment until it goes down to at least 99% then starts charging again. Samsung just lights up the screen every time it hits 100% so that's just purely the way the phone is made. Unfortunately this is how every wireless charging system has been developed so far, it can't allow to keep sending current after it reaches 100% or bad things will happens. Unfortunately, nothing we can do about it yet (it's something called trickle charge).
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] FrayAdjacent:
Well, THAT sucks.

I won't be able to use wireless charging like I wanted to. Darn thing will randomly wake me up all day (I work nights, sleep days). :(
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] dixit:
Okay but that doesn't happen on the wired charge. It doesnt keep waking it every 1min.

This is happening for me starting near 95-96% and then keeps beeping and waking the screen up almost every 30-60secs. That doesnt seem normal to me.

This is my first wireless charging setup so not entirely an expert here.

Yet you did not provide an ebay link. Neither does the post you linked.

any links?

---------- Post added at 11:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 PM ----------

I have this problem but it only does it about 3-4 times then doesnt wake up the screen again. It will do this at around 92% then stop and be fine after a few times.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] FrayAdjacent:
I've noticed mine will cease flashing on and such after a few times... I'll have to keep an eye on it tonight while at work and see how it does after hitting 100%

---------- Post added at 02:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 AM ----------

Ran the battery down to about 95% and put it back on the charger... it's turning on at least once every 30 seconds, and it's not at 100% charge yet. Something isn't right.

I can understand if it comes on once it hits 100%... but not multiple times at 95%, 96%, 97%, 98% and 99%.

I has a sad.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] open1your1eyes0:
95% mark is actually the lowest cutoff for trickle charge so anything within that range of stopping/starting is perfectly normal. Wired just cuts the current in the power adapter but wireless is not able to do the same since it works differently.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] FrayAdjacent:
I thought it might be something like that, drop the current while finishing up the charging. Most lithium based cells don't like being hit with full current at the top end of their state of charge.

I think the phone could handle it a bit better, like not turning on and off repeatedly, tho. Hopefully Sammy might do something about it.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] dixit:
Wonder if the official Samsung Charging back and Pad they sell now has the same issue or not. If it does then I guess all this a moot point. If it doesn't then wondering what they did differently.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Chris000001:
I'm using an Otterbox Defender with a Metrans receiver and a PowerQI QI Standard Wireless Charger Pad Mat on my S4. It fully charges to 100% without turning the screen or pad on and off. The pad keeps the blue led on and the phone stays at 100% after the phone hits 100% also. It gets warm while charging before hitting 100%. After 100%, the phone cools off to probably 85-90F. It charges about 1% in 5 minutes.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Mykew:
re: intermittent screen wakes. If you move the phone around a little (eg., rotate about 30degrees) it often helps.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] FrayAdjacent:
I would think that may be a function of the receiver rather than the charging mat, although I could be wrong.

The WiQiQi mat has three lights - power, charging and charged, but the 'charged' light never comes on.

Looking at the Metrans receiver, it appears to be a different model. I'm tempted to order one to see how it works with my S4. I only have one charging mat, and neither component is really cheap enough to want to buy several of!

ETA: screw it, I ordered a Metrans receiver. $25... oh well. If it works, I'll be happy. I want to be able to set my phone on the charger next to my bed and NOT be woken up by blinkenlighten or screenenonens!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] kms108:
edit: sorry just read your post, you were referring about the metrans receiver, and not the transmitter.

which metrans did you buy, the mwt 02 has only a soft white light that fades rather than blinking, but it does have a noise, whiles the mwt 03 has a soft blinking blue light, but it's covered by the phone so you probably won't see the light and has no noise, only the phone has the noise which is the same with all samsung wireless phones.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] darek65:
Over 8 hours to charge from zero to 100%? I think 1% in 5 minutes is for the last 10%. You should be able to fully charge phone in 4 hours.

I'm waiting on my Wiqiqi and I'm not excited about the reports about the beeping on and off at 96%.

For those with the wiqiqi charging problems I talked with monsterwatts on the phone and they were aware of it. They were replacing orders of the older versa charger with the newer curve charger. This supposedly addresses the issue of it beeping on and off at 96%. I should get mine in a week. If you have a versa with the issue you probably can exchange it.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] dixit:
I wrote them a message about 2weeks ago and have yet to hear from them. I have the Versa charger from what I see on their website.

Are they just going to send all the people who got the Versa charger this newer curve model charger (which looks pretty odd looking to me). Or do I have to call them, since they wont respond to my emails to them.

For others, here is the Versa charger

And here is their new Curve Charger (as they call it).
