Any way to fix this? I started from 28pct and in the morning it was at 86pct. I noticed this after the latest update, but not sure that is cause. I bought another charger because I lost the orginial one, but the reviews on Amazon are good.

1) Google Now never works when I try to use my voice.
I have a Galaxy Nexus that doesn't exhibit the same issues with Google Now. It never picks up what I say. I think there's a problem with the microphone. When I do a sound recording, I notice a lot of background noise.
2) Tablet charges randomly when in dock with full battery
When I use my TF300 on the dock, the charging overlay randomly comes up when I do intensive operations on the tablet when docked and charging. The overlay goes over everything I'm doing, so it's pretty annoying. It doesn't happen all the time, but enough that I do notice it.
I do have a first-batch TF300, so I was wondering if anyone else is affected so I know if I should try to exchange the unit with ASUS. I am running the newest firmware.
If this happend with every firmware you had installed then looks like HW fault. RMA it.
When you upgraded it, did you do clean or dirty flash?
I am locked and not rooted. I did a clean flash about two months ago for Jellybean, and received a couple of official OTA updates afterwards.
I am going to RMA it.
The random charge thing gets annoying, because you can't get rid of the full screen overlay when the tablet begins to charge. I'm going to try to ship them everything back, because I have no idea where the problem is.

I'd like to know as well. My usb port has stopped working. It won't charge or connect to my pc. Verizon doesn't want to fix it. They just want to replace the phone.

I'm confused.. why wouldn't you want to have the phone replaced? I'd take a brand new phone any day. Of course assuming it's actually new and not a "like new" refurbished one..
just curious is all.
And on the OP's question - I did a google search for s4 battery door covers and found some pretty legit looking sites that sold all kinds of different colors. While perusing on the sites for other stuff they had I saw they had replacement parts for the s4 as well as other phones. I don't remember the actual site but I recall there being many, many search results that sold parts, cases, chargers & other accessories. Hope that helps? Sorry for not having a particular site but maybe my reply gets you closer to what you seek.
Good Luck!

Well my s4 is rooted and I have it setup just the way I like and it is working great. No lag, good battery life, etc. I use wireless charging on the phone to charge it so the port is doesn't have to be repaired as I can still charge the phone. I have the stock samsung battery as well as 2 3000mah zero lemon batteries and charger for them. I can usually go 15-20 hrs on a single charge with the zl battery with wifi, bluetooth, gps, etc running all day.
The biggest reason of not wanting to get a replacement is the issue of root with a new phone. With the new or refurbished phones possibly coming with the newest update, It might not be possible to root the new one they send me right now. I dunno if someone has a work around for the new update yet. I haven't been keeping up with it since I've been rooted close to the release of the phone. If root is possible how easy is it? It only prob took me 10-15 mins to root and flash a new rom to my s4 with the one click root.

Root is easy, recovery isn't possible right now.
So if you're using stock rom with root, freezing aps etc, then just get a new phone.
If you got a rom loaded and it's crucial, then wait I guess.
You could titanium back up and restore what you can with your new phone.

I think I'll just stick with what I got for now. Between wireless charging and the charger that comes with the zero lemon batteries I'm ok. Never had wireless charging before and can't see living w/out it now. It's a great feature. I'm running the newest release of hyperdrive and really liking it right now. Very stable, everything works, battery life is pretty good. Would like to flash a nice kernel and get this Quad Core Manager+ app working right on my s4. Had something similar on my htc evo 3d that shut the 2nd core down in sleep mode and dropped the 1st core to 486 mhz. My battey life was crazy. Like standby with wifi on, bluetooth, gps on and losing maybe a percent of my battery every 6-8 hrs.

Anyone else got a Tilt VU?
I got mine Friday after pledging to the Kickstarter Campaign.
It is cute.
I'm having an issue with it charging to 85% and stopping.
I was wondering if this is a common experience or just me.
I'm testing right now with my son's N7 FD, and tonight I'm going to test with my wife's N4.

Got mine before the KS got yours. Didn't the other threads pop up when you created this one?? When I just tried it, about 4-5 threads, not including this thread shows up.
Granted, there are no reviews until mine, but that's because I was the first to post a review because I got mine in early.
I use mine every day. I have issues when the phone is overheating and that stops it from charging to 100%, but after a reboot it works fine. Not sure why, but it happens about once a month average. This usually happens when I am below 20% or less in battery before plopping it on the VU.

Not if you spell TYLT "TILT".
I got my wife's N4 and son's N7 FD to 100%.
I've taken your advice and rebooted.... we'll see.
Sorry about the extraneous thread.
Any1 else having problems.
Google Nav just dispears and having to start all over to get back to navigation? Happens about 5 time on a one hour trip making it dangerous...
Any way to make it so that it is reliable. I was playing music at the same time but it was not getting hot or anything. Still happens when the only app that is running is the Google NAV ap.
Still a great phone other than I can't find a good holster for it. Cheap ebay holster broken after about a month use. Seems that one is same as the one on amazon.
One issue, still can't find a battery replacement video or battery for sale? The battery capacity seems to be getting lower. Anyone?
Cheers.
PS. Stock ROM/no mods. No root.
Hi guys,
I installed Alpha Omega Rom shortly after getting a used LG V20 and it's been the fastest rom so far!
Issue #1: I've tried a couple different batteries, and it's hard to get a full day's battery life out of the thing. I do make business calls and listen to podcasts/music on it, but I used to do the same on my Galaxy S6 and the battery would usually make it from morning to night without issue. I've cleaned up the phone as much as possible. Anything else i can do?
Issue #2: Quite often, when listening to music via bluetooth to my car stereo, it cuts out quite a bit. It randomly fixes itself for a while but always comes back once a day or more. Any fixes for this?
Thanks !

This should be asked in the alpha thread or in the questions and answers section

Generally you need a higher capacity aftermarket battery to last through a day of use, esp on used phone.
