Fm radio?? Is there a normal one??? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Iv just upgraded from my s2 to the s4. And the s4 doesnt seem to have a radio.
Iv downloaded a few apps but they all seem to use the net to get a signal. Is there one like the s2 that just useses normal radio waves?? Im already fed up of the radio cutting out in week areas

There's no FM hardware in the S4. Samsung made an announcement that people don't use it so they didn't bring it to the new phone.

Try TuneIn Radio. I think it's the best one. It needs internet.

Cool thanks

Has your S3 frozen several times?

My phone has frozen like 4-5 times since the first day I got it...
Nope.
nope...
Mine hasn't frozen, but sometimes have to turn wifi on and off a few times to connect to my router
Possibly found some info on the wifi androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s3/574442-samsung-galaxy-s3-wifi-problem.html

After 3 full days of use and having loaded and tested about 1.5GB of apps, I've not had a single hiccup.
So far I don't have a single complaint about the S3.

My phone is seamless. Every once in awhile though, XDA seems to be a bit choppy. But nothing else.

no issues here. had it sence monday been running like a champ. batery lasted 14hrs so far with emails updating every 15 min and surfing the net from time to time at work all on 4g . love this phone and wish it was unlocked
Has frozen once or twice, but I think it may have been on Power Save at the time. Have you used that feature at all?
Also, Apex launcher crashes quite a bit. Not sure if it's a compatibility issue or what.

I've had multiple apps crash on me over and over. Stock phone.

Nope. And I use it quite heavily too.
Hmm..the only app that has lagged so far is XDA app, and seems few of you guys had that experience too. Wonder if this is a compatibility issue or coz all of us are in the XDA app all the time:laugh:
16days and not 1 problem.

Straight butter here, I don't even think I've had a FC yet, and I've had mine since launch. Battery lasts me ALL DAY no problem and performance all around has been flawless.
I am rooted on stock rom if anyone is wondering.
MANY apps freeze for me all the time, and it's stock, and use atk but still same issues.

Why in the hell would you use ATK? That app was barely useful in 2.1, let alone 4.0.4

Nothing. Android has an amazing memory management system. If you must close all apps, hold Home, click remove all. Then hold Home, click Task manage, go to ram, and hit clear memory. This is only necessary if an app is rogue and causing battery drain though.

Unlock play store for nexus 7?

I've searched google and it keeps taking me to market enabler which is only for gsm. I'm trying to get a sprint specific app. I've tried the spring codes, don't work. Is there another way of doing this?

It isn't possible to side load it via Titanium Backup? Or is the tablet version different from the phone version?

Unless its an app that updates all the time side loading isn't a bad way to do it. In your case that seems like the least headache solution for now.

[Q] BT Bug or something else

Hi guys...
Start using S4, and I noticed this little bug?
When i paired with the radio in the car, i need always to select Media Audio.
If I turn on them off, Media Audio, is not select.... it's a little boring, always need to go to settings..
Any one is having the same issue?
I'm using the last stock UK ROM.
This didn't happen with S3...
Thx
Sent from my S4 Tapatalk 2
Yes and it's dead annoying because everytime I turn my engine on I have to turn s4 BT off then back on and select stereo.

Random reboots - GT-I9505, Help`?

Hi, i've got my hands on a Galaxy S4 GT-I9505 running 4.2.2 MH6. Im updating it at the moment. but it reboots atleast 2 to 3 times a day. for no reason? it's not modded but AVG is installed. could that be the problem?
Can you make screenshots about your app launcher and sys info? Looks like some strange apps led to that. Or you can try to flash a Perseus kernel(or Adam,up to u).

Updated it to 4.3 but the problems are still there, it's under warranty. i noticed now that there was another problem. Network signal goes off then after some seconds it reboots as well. Should i turn it in again? it was just in for screen replacement! problems started after the screen was replaced! no problems before! it's a freind of mine that has this phone! and no he isn't going to mod his phone.
Anyone?

As already mentioned in other threads it's most likely that's the battery that needs to be changed due to a series of bad batteries that was shipped with the galaxy S4.
try it out with another battery and your problem will be solved

I don't understand, what you are looking for. WLAN-Hotspot ist built in every stock rom, just switch it on, pull down the status bar, find the icon, and thats it.
I'm looking for a app that will let me use my phone as a Wifi hot spot for free....

And here is your problem - SM-N900P I believe is the Note 3 from Sprint, which:
- has the standard Note 3 hotspot app removed/blocked by Sprint
- has a completely different forum around here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint
You should read/ask there!
