    It's hard for me to sit here and say, because I don't know what stuff you have running, what Samsung features you have on etc etc. It's highly individual.

    As I said I hardly ever notice any lag, but then I have most things disabled and run a pretty clean setup.

    How much RAM are you using?

    I have on of those on my Galaxy Nexus. Probably one of the best aftermarket batteries I have ever used. The battery lasts about 2 days for me and I'm pretty much on my phone 24/7.

    I got the original Samsung wireless charger and receiver back cover and it works like a charm.

    The back cover also works with Nokia DT 910 wireless charger too. Does it damage battery to charge with that Nokia? I want to take Samsung charger to home and keep Nokia at office as it is a stand which I can see phone better rabble.

    I doubt it, at most it would possibly just charge at a slower rate.

    yes and no.....

    Your phone will default to wifi if both are on unless no wifi is available, as for battery, if you just us 3g instead of wifi, you will still run your battery down..

    best advice is to just manually turn your wifi on and off as needed, I just leave mine on 24/7.... if you are wanting to try and get a bit more juice out of your battery, try snapdragon battery guru (providing you have the I9505) i had this for a while, it learns your behaviour, and adjusts settings to maximise you battery life, personally i never noticed a change, but I ****** music 12hours a day at work so i'm constantly plugged in.

    You can get apps that will turn wifi on and off for you based on your location maybe have a look at them, also, go for dark themes less widgets and sync only when you need too....

    Edit: with this Spigen case, doesn't work with Nokia charger. Damn man. Such Breaking point.

    So I rooted my s4 and threw cm10.1.3 on there, and I'm remembering why I love aosp ROMs over touchwiz ROMs! This has just made my phone 1 million times better to me!

    iam looking for a micro sd card for my s4. the capacity is already full. i cant put songs or movies(porn yeah)

    found 32 GB micro sd. fcking expensive. but at least i can put it on phone to increase the capacity.

    iam so happy with the phone after using this wireless charging stuff and new case. a complete new style. just wish the battery was great.

    SD cards expensive? 64GB cards are dirt cheap these days, everything considered. I have a SanDisk 64GB class 10 UHS-1 card in mine, didn't really cost me much. Allows me to dump as much music as I want on the thing without worrying about running out of space. Neat-o.

    I agree, the £40 for my 64gb card was well worth it, able to store whole seasons worth of videos for later on it now, rather than the 8 or so episodes I could before with a full 16gb card.

    Plus class 10 is so much faster than what I had before.

    Class 10 I would say is a bare necessity for Android. I've got a 32gb in right now, but I might go up just for cache.(Even though on an Android phone you would probably never have near 64gb of cache. :D)

    I'm playing around with a few things right now. I'm very fond of Active notifications, and the mic+ for google now! I will say this, I do prefer S Voice over Google Now for a few things, but for everyday tasks I want my phone to do Google Now is excellent!
