my battery life is decreased again after upgrading to KF3 from KE8....what can i do........even 7 hours it cant survive the charging.........
Kinda old news. Anyway, it's as smooth as KE8. Swype has got an upgrade.

well its same as last one
no battery improvement
just android system and android os using much less battery (2%, 4%)
which is good
well my friend... i think battery life is slightly improve
due to less consumption of android os and android system
thanks

Old new!?
People with non rooted phones do not surf around much in developer section
I'm running on Rooted KE8.. Rooted using CF Root with insecure kernel method (chainfire). Can I use Odin to flash the new firmware (on an already rooted phone), or will my phone get bricked. No worries about losing root; i'll just root it again once I update the firmware.
No update for me
No update for me here.
Kies still not detecting any new firmware. I am in KE8.
Why is that?
updated to new KF3;
Its more fluid then previous one ;
didn't noticed any other enhancement

Were you already rooted?
'ello geeks,
I know Kies has been infamous for just about every reason a piece of software can be..Perhaps before investing in S4 I should have gone through Kies reviews as well and not just phone's.
Anyway, the issue I am facing is since Samsung released the firmware upgrade for Galaxy S4 , I have been trying to upgrade via Kies (I do not have a wife router) and faced with below:
1. While it downloads the firmware data, it randomly shows phone's disconnected and I have to restart the download.
2. On one instances, it did go through the upgrade procedure completely but only firmware ID got updated as none of the features came in...on top of that ability to change unlock effect in settings got disabled for some reason. Post this I had reset the phone.
3. Another question is, for around 350 mb upgrade, Kies keeps on downloading 7 gb+ data,,,is this normal? and why would that be for?

Please let me know if you people have a different experience and whether anything can be done to mend it...or this is how the life with Kies is!
Thanks!
I am assuming that you are not rooted.
Try updating it manually via Odin
Download the official firmware file from here

And follow the step from here

Hi, everybody, I'm a note 4 user from Malaysia, had been using it since it first came to the market. When I bought the 1st note 4 of mine, it's black, and from Malaysia Samsung shop. Later my girl friend got a pink one, from a neighboring country, Singapore. Then we both swap it and using it in Malaysia, with Malaysia's telco Sim cards. Recently, my girl friend note 4 (from Malaysia), got some official update for the OS, by OTA, from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1, and the newest is 6.0.1. She did update to 5.1.1, but stay at it and didn't up to 6.0.1 due to a lot of negative comments about it. On the other hand, the note 4 that I'm using(from Singapore), still stuck with 5.0.1, since the day we swapped. I did on the OTA, but I didn't get any notification about update for my phone. I tried to do manual update checking, by going into setting > system > about device > software update > update now, in case I might have miss the notification while I ran out of range of data, but yet I still a get nothing on it,it just show that the firmware had been update to the latest. At first this doesn't bother me much. But nowadays, my phone started to get wacky, and started to get randomly reboot. I was thinking an update to the firmware might help solve the problem. I did went to samfirmware and check out the newest firmware for my phone and I found that there is an update to 5.1.1 for it, so I try using OTA again to try to update but it failed, the result still say my phone is on the latest update, whereas my phone was still on 5.0.1. I wonder what went wrong with it. Here's my question :
1. Why can't my note 4(from Singapore) do an OTA update? Do I really need a Singapore Sim card to do the update?
2. I know how to flash using Odin, but I heard that many people do a factory reset after flashing new firmware, is this really needed? Cause in the old days, I just do simple flashing and straight forward using the phone(android before note 4) with out doing any factory reset after it.
3. How is the newest 6.0.1 getting along with note 4, need some expert opinions on it.
Sorry for the long story and bad English, I'm trying to keep it short and clear so that you can read them clearly and understand my question, thank you for any answer in advance.
Hello Guys,
Well, I wanna downgrade my OS on my S8 Plus. Why? Battery life sucks. I have the latest update and it still drains my battery like hell... I get SOT of 3/4h at best... sometimes 5h but depends alote!
Im a heavy user and ye, Im coming from a Mate 10 Pro and I do regred it because of the battery life (only that was stronger on the Huawei). Since I don´t own money to go to the P20 Pro, I have to stay on the S8 Plus.
I already have the correct Firmeware and I know how to use ODIN.
But, when I try to flash it, it gives me error (not a specific one) just a error saying fail... and doens´t do anything.
When I bought the phone, it came with a dumb version of a country and he even hadn´t any update since July 2017. So I changed the ROM to my country ofc with no problems at all using ODIN. Now getting to downgrade part... I just can´t, always saying fail.
What Im doing wrong or is something missing?!
I did compare the firmeware and it is for my model/version!
From what I read, the new OS doesn´t let me downgrade as security messure, so guys HOW do I downgrade STEP by STEP?
I spended alote time on Youtube/Google and 0 luck or sucess... !
I do miss my SOT of 6/7h on the 7.0 of the S8 Plus!
I recently bought Max Pro M1 but I am not getting any updates
My current build is .316(oreo), can I manually update it to .055(pie) directly?
Dont update your phone....the first version of this phone was so good for battery and other factors....native video calling also there...if you want to update directlh just go to asus site download 1.5 GB latest update to root of your internal storage...restart your phone you will see notification for update

Oh ok thanks
About the battery and stuff, Can I update it to oreo's lastest version (. 340) without having any problems like battery drain or the other factors you mentioned above?
I won't update it to Pie as it has many bugs
I think you should avoid any upgrade even for oreo you will lose native video calling....even in recent pie update they removed widevine certi. Support from l1 to l3
