The Android Discussion Thread

Try browsing this on google.I read on a forum that these crashes are happening with some..
BTW Touchwiz Home force closes too?
 
No, I haven't yet had the touchwiz crash, but the phone hangs frequently, and restarts randomly.
I think the firmware might be corrupted, and I'll have to flash it again :noway
 
Jinxed it. Just had my touchwiz crash, when I was trying to make a folder and put something in it.
Does it mean something now? :noway
 
You updated yours to 4.3 right?..Many are quoting that there is some problem in the Update.
The only option is to backing up the data and revert to the old 4.2 update(which i think is much stabler)..or switch to a custom rom until Samsung comes up with a new update for the S4.
 
I've been on 4.3 for months now. I'm quite sure this problem has something to do with the main account I deleted. Probably got some system files corrupted. I've already had a failed restore once, which lost all my data, and I'm not willing to risk it again. Too much work related stuff on the phone right now.
 
Any special apps?
There might be some, but you can use the default method to capture a screenshot on your phone. Method is phone specific.
 
I guess so...as long as you install the same version package,yes...Else,the app will download a new data until the game is heavy,else everything is fine.
 
@Abhas - Just take a backup of your messages/contacts and do a factory reset. Your phone will start flying again!

Samsung (and sometimes Google) have taken a lot of bad decisions when it comes to implementations. They use in-appropriate file systems, NAND controllers, and what not. Result is that you experience gradual slowing down of stuff. You format everything, do a wipe, and things start running great again (until next time). For now, anyways.
