Samsung Galaxy S4 TIPS

SAMSUNG GALAXY S4




The world's most popular android device, the samsung galaxy s4 is renowned for it's large 5" display and runs on Android Jelly Bean (v4.2.2.). S4 has Quadcore 1.6 GHz Cortex-A15 & quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7. It has also 2gb of ram 4 smooth operation of the phone. Since it is android, it becomes slow and sluggish from time to time. T


Let's talk about the battery.It is Li-Ion 2600 mAh battery. With endurance rating of only 65hr.





1.Display




This has been the problem for other s4 owners. Some were likely to make their phone brighter as possible. They noticed that the battery drains fast. To fix this issue you must adjust the brightness to your acceptable level.This will save the battery consumption for up to 25%.




2.Charging the phone.




The S4 has 2600mAh Li-ion battery. Don't use it while charging, especially when receiving phone calls.It still consumes power so the charging will be slow. In order to charge it properly you may turn off the phone or lock the screen. Some cases had been reported that receiving and answering a phone call with this device explode as you can see in the picture.



3.Applications




make sure that you will install the application that is compatible to your phone. Some report show that when playing games or apps is sometimes slow and laggish. I would recommend games and apps that do not require heavy ram usage and must be compatible to your device's GPU. Also you may install anti-virus if you do not want your phone to be infected by trojans, etc.



4.The Lock Screen




Make sure to set-up an auto lock screen on the settings. Auto locking while your phone is idle is efficient. You don't have to press the power button, since this was relatively consuming battery power by 2%. Do not also restart your phone if there is no problem. Restarting heavily consumes battery due to loading of programs, data and OS.



5.Multi-tasking



Android is known for its multi-tasking capabilities, how ever this really affects the power consumption of your phone. Opening too many apps or games at the same time sometimes affect the smooth operation of the phone. Some people just press home key if they want to exit the application. But this is wrong. It will take you only to homescreen. it's better to use the back or exit key if you really want to exit the application. Go to App. Mngr to access the progress and activities of your device.



6. Sounds





S4 uses Wolfson DAC. This a good audio chip. However, you should use headsets to lessen the usage of DAC. Some problems stated when regarding to bass. It makes unusual noise in the speakers. By that, you can set the equalizers to your desired effects.

NOKIA ASHA 501





Nokia unveiled it’s new device, the Nokia Asha 501. It looks like smaller Lumia. This phone features new Nokia Ahsa Platform, the Fastlane, and Slam.










Built and Design

The Nokia Asha is solid build in a Slab form factor. It is slightly thicker, but fits perfectly in your hands. The Asha comes in LCD capacitive super sensitive touchscreen. It has “Back” physical button which you can use when stucked or closing an app. Volume rocker are situated on the ride side and the power button. There is no camera hardware key. It’s just a touch shot. At the back is the 3.2mp camera with nokia branding below just like the lumia. Also there is 3.5mm jack for headset and crystal clear speakers at the back. Aside from charging port, you can also charge via micro usb, provided by nokia in it’s package. This is only a feature phone.



Display



This device comes with 240x320 and a pixel density of 133ppi, enough for reading, gaming and browsing. Looking from the sides will make it blur because of LCD. Pictures also look good. It makes color vibrant and good for everyday use. With display that don’t drain your battery too much.
Memory,Data
Asha comes with 128mb(expandable up to 32gb) internal storage and 64mb RAM. Asha has wLan, Bluetooth, Nokia Express Browser, GPRS/EDGE and Radio Tuner.



OS, User Interface, Applications



Noka Asha 501 runs in Asha platform 1.0. It looks like s40 Operating System which was used by older Asha Devices. The CPU has 1GHz clock speed. There is no way to click a popping notification instead you have to go to the notification bar. All you have to do is swipe and it’s easy to use and navigate. The homescreen is very good. It’s like the Nokia N9 which runs Meego Harmattan OS. The qwerty keyboard works well even in minimal screen. The OS is fast and fluid, no wonder why it doesn’t lag(for me). The Asha features Fastlane. A Navigation Pane where the connectivity and recent activity are shown. You can also access apps that you have accessed lately. The Facebook does well. But it took minutes to sync but overall it’s easy to use. There is no copy-paste functionality.



Camera and Multimedia
The phone has 3.15 (2048 x 1563p) megapixel camera which is situated on the center top of the device. The design looks like Lumia, but this is not a pureview camera, not even the carl zeiss lens but the picture looks great. The camera UI is easy to use and navigate. There is default settings that you can use.It can handle noise but don’t expect too much.
The video as I graded for me is only average. The camcorder records QVGA 240 x 320 resolution in 15fps. The Stereo Speaker does well. I played a song in the office when it’s lunch break and I will hear my officemates sing along, and even my manager. The Steroe Speakers gives you 89.db. Loud enough when making crosstalks.
The video player on supports 3gp and MP4 videos, but thanks to the screen it makes watching and streaming crisps in display. The video player has no loop or playback.

Performance & Battery Life




The Asha 501 is fast. It has 1ghz cpu and 64mb ram. But it has no GPU or GPU rendering. But it does well in using applications. The phone has 1200mAhh battery
For it's size, a 1,200mAh battery is good and also for it's light OS.

iJailbreak Tool

This toll for jailbreaking works, but don’t expect too much. The interface is complex, also it doesn’t support latest version of iOS because they don’t update the application.
