I used mine in GPS while listening to music, got warm, but not hot. I've never had trouble like that with any phone except when I left it in direct sunlight in a car when it was parked. Unless you are overclocking you shouldn't need to worry about it.

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Locthe:
which root package you installed? can you provide a link to it?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] ~Unify~:
first check you have root access successfully or not through Root checker.....Then Install Superuser from playstore.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] mr turtle droid:
Try installing the super su version and deleteing the other superuser and in settings of the supersu check and or click on install to system or system app and it will install it as a system app and probably won't disappear

[Galaxy S 4 General] MohamedYousri:
Hi all ,

I know that question maybe already posted many times here in the forums but still can't find an answer :p

I might give my little brother the Galaxy Note II i have now - which is the best device i ever used BTW - and start searching for a new device to get ,,, although i like HTC ONE and Xperia Z but Samsung devices has another taste with the ton of features they put into the phone

as the Note 3 expected to be around 1000USD which is a very high price and won't get a better price soon so i have to stick with Galaxy S4

The question is , Which one shall i get ? 9500 or 9505

4G isn't available yet at my country and don't care about it that much ,,, most reviews said that the 9500 Octa is slightly better than SD600 one , also found that camera in 9500 is better than 9505 but i guess that this is all software issues

Which one gets official updates from Samsung 1st ??!! which one is supported more from developers here in XDA ??!!

Please help me with your experience with both devices

Thanks :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] donalgodon:
It really depends on how you plan to use the device, but if you plan on running CM or AOSP ROMs the choice is clear: 9505 all the way. The Exynos Octa is a bad joke at this point (no flames please) because of the problems inherent in the hardware that cannot and will not be fixed. I will never touch another Exynos based device with a ten foot pole.
[Galaxy S 4 General] MohamedYousri:
I already have the new Nexus 7 , so i can taste the pure JB & Kitkat at it

I like the features that Samsung added in top of Android and TouchWiz UI

I remeber that i tried CM at S3 and Note II for a few days and i was back to the stock ROM so i guess that i will note use the CM or AOSP that much

Is this the only problem with 9500 and Exynos or do you recommend 9505 in general for other reasons :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 General] negrobembon:
That's it, the hardware problem he mentioned is the cpu's inability to use all 8 cores at the same time, only 4 at once, but the performance is still super fast and it has better gaming performance than the 9505(that's what i've heard at least)

But the 9505 always gets updates before the 9500 as far as i know

But if i were you i would be saving for the note 3, its the best option for you, i know it might be too expensive but if you find any other way to get it cheaper then dont hesitate, i dont think you will be comfortable going from a galaxy note 2 to an s4
[Galaxy S 4 General] MohamedYousri:
i already feel that moving from Note 2 to S4 isn't a good decision ,,, although the 1080p Screen and faster performance in general but there is something strange about Note that u can't imagine yourself using other device :good: but right know it's the only option for me

i will have to wait at least 3~4 months to get the Note 3 in a reasonable price ,, if i can live with the Xperia Mini and New Nexus 7 i will till i can get the Note 3

9505 is getting the official updates before 9500 ??!! interesting , i thought that Samsung keep both updated at the same schedule or with month or month and half max or 9500 is updated first as it's the international version

still can't decide which one shall i get :rolleyes:

i hate Samsung for this kind of thing
[Galaxy S 4 General] negrobembon:
No, the difference in updates its like a week or two, and youre right there is something about using notes that makes it hard to use smaller devices

Its definitely the screen size, i personally wont buy a phone with a screen size smaller than 4.7, ive been spoiled lol

And the performance difference between the note 2 and the s4 wont be that big

Now the performance difference between the note 2 and the note 3 will be enormous, if youre going to upgrade then that's an upgrade

I would keep the note 2 until the 3 gets cheaper or sell the 2 to buy the 3
[Galaxy S 4 General] MohamedYousri:
i am forced to leave the Note 2 to my brother :D as he needs a new device and mine still as new and i found that it's a chance to get a new phone ,, he will pay me of-course :p for the Note 2 and don't like that we both have the same device if i or him got another Note 2

but still the Note 3 is double the price as Note 2 and it will be a waste for money to get it while it's launch and watching it's price drops in front of my eyes :eek:

i was thinking that i can get S4 for now and after while when Note 3 price is good enough i sell the S4 for Note 3 but i found myself can't choose between 9500 and 9505 :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S 4 General] negrobembon:
If you use touchwiz then buy the i9500, if you use any other rom then the 9505
[Galaxy S 4 General] MohamedYousri:

[Galaxy S 4 General] POLO_i780:
You'll be very happy with the I9500 then. Thoroughly enjoying mine, not bothered about custom ROMs and all that personally, ran stock with no issue on both my GS2 and GS3, doing the same with the GS4, although I did experiment with the GS2 a bit, but went back to stock.

The benefits of I9500:

Sony Exmor RS camera sensor with HD720@120FPS slo-mo vid

HEVC H.265 codec support

Wolfson DAC audio chip

Very powerful

Great batt life
[Galaxy S 4 General] MohamedYousri:
will it's still confusing , some reviews says that the SD600 is better others says that the Octa is better

almost all reviews agrees that the Octa is better in Camera , Sound and overall performance , after Samsung software updates the heat was gone from the Octa version and device performance is more better now

Battery is better at the 9505 but i guess it's OK with me ,, moving from Note 2 3100 to S4 2600 battery is a disaster any way :D so it's not a big deal the difference between 2 devices

still can't find info about software updates , Which device receives updates first ??! 9500 or 9505 ?!

the difference in price isn't that much it's around 50~60USD so it's not a big deal

Confused :confused:

Update :

Found articles stating that Exynos 5 Octa uses an Imagination PowerVR GPU and this GPU doesn't support OpenGL ES 3.0 which is supported in Android 4.3 but the SD600 Adreno 320 is fully OpenGL 3.0 compatible and i guess that this will have a differance in games that needs OpenGL ES 3.0 and overall graphic performance
[Galaxy S 4 General] xhaniGS2:
I had white 9500 from june, two days ago i decided to take the balck colour, soo this time i went with 9505, all i can say they are almost the same on daily use, didnt try hard games on 9505 yet, 9500 was great device, i havent any issue with that, reason why i took 9505: open gl 3.0 support, more devs, open source SOC, but i can never say 9500 is bad, both are awesome :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] MohamedYousri:
What about camera performance ??!! is it the same after software updates , or as most reviews says that the Octa is better than the SD600 ?!
[Galaxy S 4 General] xhaniGS2:
I really dont know, i used 9500 a lot, awesome camera, i took some with 9505, for me its the same, but im not a profesional photografer to see diferences between those two. For me they are the same. :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] MohamedYousri:
may you please upload a photo from each device to compare the quality

it's really annoying choosing from both versions , it seems like choosing from a two difference devices !!
[Galaxy S 4 General] Grarak:
Actually these are completely different devices
[Galaxy S 4 General] xhaniGS2:
Yes, they are not the same devices, their look is same and perform almost the same, maybe im wrong.
[Galaxy S 4 General] MohamedYousri:
i9500

*Better Camera

*Better Performance

-No OpenGL ES 3.0 Support

-Battery consumption higher than 9505

i9505

*Better Battery Life

*OpenGL ES 3.0 Supported

*Better Dev. Support

*Easy to be modified to 9505G Google Edition

*4G Support

-Lower performance than 9500

how root i9100g with cfroot build number imm76d.jplpb 4.0.4

thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
C'mon....You've been here long enough to know that sort of info is easily found by searching. Build number/etc is irrelevant, root methods don't vary a lot because of those things.

Edit - To the best of my knowledge there isn't CFRoot for I9100G (if you flash firmware for different models to your phone, you'll probably brick it). Again, search & make sure you use a method for I9100G (A simple Google or XDA search reveals tons of info, I just checked).

Hi

Problem solved
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] mh2005:
Hello,

on a MDA III the synchronisation over a serial RS232 cable works fine

(although T-Mobile doesn't sell such a cable). Some software which I

develop for PDAs which uses the RS232 port there for communication

with external electronic hardware works fine on PDas but not on the MDA

III. It always crashes when I try to open the port (COM1).

Some installed device manager tool (a view only tool) seems to confiorm

that COM1 is the right one. It is named like this: "Serial cable on COM1".

What's wrong here? Active Sync has been closed before starting my

application. SOmebody somewhere mentioned that the keyboard could

block the com-port. Is this true? And if yes, how can ActiveSync then use

it?

Greetings

Markus
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] cr2:
Re: seriel RS232 port on MDA III -sync works but own app. no

No, it's not true. The port is open by an

IR daemon listening for the connection,

and serial and IR share the same UART.

Uncheck the button in the settings, and

everything will work.

Everybody who has a RS232 GPS receiver

had the same problem.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matjas:
Hello,

First I must say, that I'm not English native speaker, so sorry for any language mistakes.

I have a pretty serious problem with my Galaxy S4 LTE I9505. I downloaded the latest official ROM for my model (I9505XXUBMGA_I9505OXXBMG3_XEO) from SamMobile and I wanted to flash it via Odin 3.07 (previously I had CyanogenMod 10.2). But during the flashing process Odin give me "FAIL".

After that my phone was showing downloading screen with this information:

Of course I was trying Emergency Recovery option in Kies, but it was failing all the time. I also was trying to flash it again, but Odin again shows me "FAIL" during the process. So I choose re-partition with PIT file and stock, branded ROM (I9505XXUAMDE_I9505PLSAMD8_I9505XXUAMDE_HOME). And it works, now I can boot my phone and original recovery without any problems, but unfortunatly I can't enable Wi-Fi module and any function that needs sounds just don't work (phone calling, system sounds, notifications etc.). Kies don't want to update my OS from stock, branded version to newest one (error while updating device). I also tried this on different PC, but it's always showing "FAIL" in Odin.

What should I do to get back to stock firmware? Right now I can only send text messanges and use internet via carrier data plan...

You can install the any stock rom that ends on H8

You will not have root access anymore and are stucked with unremovable annoying system apps...

( sorry for bad english no native speaker)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] douglascamata:
The problem is your bootloader

You probably flashed a newer rom that requires a newer version of the secure (knox enabled) bootloader. People are reporting that using a 4.3 TW rom with outdated bootloader causes the wifi and sound to not work. Update the bootloader too and it might work. But you can always use a custom rom and everything will work as expected for that rom.

How I fixed my WiFi and sound problems after updating to latest firmware over Kies.

Hi there. (Sorry for any mistake about my English). By the way, I'm newbie on Android.

After freaking out about my WiFi problem, i didn't even care about the others problems like the sound, and I don't know if there were or if there is still some, but WiFi and sound got fixed.

After a lot of research on Google and XDA I came to the conclusion that if I could just re-install the firmware, I had

1- I Download the same firmware you are on (i guess it safer this way) I got the same (I9505VJUEMKE) that had caused the problem when was update trough Kies.

GT-I9505_PDA_I9505VJUEMKE_4.3

Changelist: 2210919

Build date: Wed, 27 Nov 2013

CSC: I9505ZTOEMKE_ZTO_Brazil

MODEM: I9505VJUEMKE

Gdrive: (créditos ao +Alexandre Affonso - Vlw)

Two links for download this firmware. (really fast download since its on gdrive)

goo.gl / UrZWAE .

goo.gl / omJC9e ﻿ "

2- Unpack the Zip File

3- Putt the phone in "Download Mode"

4- Open Odin 3.07 and Connected the cable. (check if Odin linked a port to your phone, i didnt get any color change, just the COM Port number and the "added" mentioned on Odin)

5- Load the firmware on "PDA", wait a few seconds till Odin load it.

6- Click Start and wait the whole process. Don't disconnect the cable until Odin says that it was Successfully.

Finished!

After all I did the root with Odin + CF Auto Root + Supersu and So far everything is fine and better than before.

Hope I can help few of you guys. :)

Thanks.

Anybody here had the wifi&sound problem in the 4.2.2, and tried to upgrade to 4.3 and it worked without any problems?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roysome:
I rooted to Cyanogen mod but didn't like it due to instability and some of the UI wasn't polished enough for me.

Upon returning to stock I lost modem and sound tried various different things.

In the end flashing using the default firmware from O2UK (native to my phone) fixed it, I just had to flash a CSC file afterwards to fix crash messages and now my phone is working beautifully again!

My phone is KNOX 0x1 now so I cannot flash most BL files.

Thought id post this here hoping it would help someone, it has taken up a lot of my time to fix this and I am extremely thankful to the people who have shared information or contributed to this community.

Many thanks

I have a MyAudio 708w on android 4.0.4, and i was using it when it suddenly dropped the wifi signal. When I tried to go to settings to reconnect, it froze, and i could only reboot it by long pressing the power button. After rebooting nothing changed, i can't even touch the lower right corner where the settings and notifications are because it freezes immediatelly. I also did a factory data reset from the recovery menu. After that I found a way to go to the settings (by adding a settings widget on the home screen) and the wifi line disappeared. I don't know how it is possible... the wifi radio is working by the way, i know that because i tried to add a new google account, and when i chose "existing account" it said i have to connect to the internet, and there i could activate the wifi and it also found the networks but it couldnt connect (it's stuck at obtaining ip adress).

Has anyone seen anything like this? Do you have any idea what i could do to fix it?
