i have seen people who stack up games in their phone and never run them...and just show others that they have this-that no. of games...i used to play temple run2 oftenly but i don't play it now so i uninstalled it and now i only play world cricket championship and subway surfer....even people have 3-4 music players installed..for no reason...some have 3-4 browsers installed at once...some people go on updating each and every app although they don't use it...like i don't use chat on,samsung apps ,hangouts...etc so no point in updating...and apps in internal memory work smoothly,fastly..and don't crash often...also there are apps whose widgets have to be downloaded separately if ur app in moved to sd card and those widgets will get saved in internal memory...so ultimately your app has a part that will eat internal memory...and suppose your ext sd card gets corrupted then all ur apps and data are lost...

      pl dont misguide people.its my humble request to you. the companies you mention dont even know what is customer service or even a service center.what you mentioned about samsung is the fact of these companies. i have been misguided with wrong opinions and to my best knowledge its better not to buy a phone , wait and collect more more and buy samsung.

        himanshu1, 15 Aug 2013from storeOk himanshu. Then may be you can first check with the store whether they can help with a replacement. Normally they don't agree and they might send you to service centre but just give it a try. Anyway, before going to the service centre a few more suggestions from my side to debug the overheating/battery discharge issue:
        (i) Disable all widgets like weather app. I had faced battery discharge issue with the weather app.
        (ii) Make sure that Google auto syncing is off and Mobile data and wifi are off when you are not using it.
        (iii) Just to be sure, download one task killer app from play store and try killing unnecessary tasks
        (iv) One more suggestion I have seen in internet is to take out the battery and let the battery/phone cool off for about 10-15 mins and plug it again.
        (v) Reduce the brightness of your screen to below 50%
        (vi)If you are using only one SIM, disable the second SIM channel(Using settings->SIM card manager). If there is low signal reception(e.g one bar) in any of the SIMs, try deactivating that SIM and see whether the problem is still there.

        try these and see whether any of these fix your issue.

In other forums(for another phone) I have seen feedback that after installing those large(>1GB) games when phone internal memory space becomes too low the whole phone becomes very slow- so we should be careful about loading our phone with too many apps.

            AnonD-150039, 16 Aug 2013How to move apps into SD card? I found the info as below:... moreHello elvin, yes, we can't move apps to sd card in quattro. This seem to be a limitation of Jelly bean OS and Google has done it mainly to prevent apps piracy and to improve the performance which was claimed in Jelly Bean's "Project Butter"(Butter Smooth UI). 5GB memory is good for installing a lot of small to mdeium size apps/games which are typically less than 50MB in size, but nowadays there are games which are more than 1GB and for that kind of game quattro may not be a good choice-we should go for a phone with 16GB memory at least. For models like S4 Samsung seem to be enabling apps2sd feature in Jelly bean 4.3 update, but I doubt whether the same would happen for Quattro. We just have to wait and see. I also did some serach for apps2sd support for jelly bean and what I found is that even if we root the phone only option you would get is to swap your internal memory with SD card memory which is not a good idea since SD card is generally slower than internal memory and also not as reliable as your phone's internal memory- so even rooting may not be of much help and rooting would void the warranty anyway. Btw, if anybody in the forum finds a solution to apps2sd without rooting please let me know.

I found the info as below:... morestoring apps in external storage makes it slow...so better its in internal memory...or root the device move apps to sd card...btw people only talk about size, whearas they won't install so many apps..also there is no point of installing hd games which take huge size as they won't run smoothly on quattro...

                  How to move apps into SD card?
                  I found the info as below:
                  You get 5.06 GB of user memory out of 8GB of internal memory and 840 MB of usable RAM. You can’t move the apps to the micro SD card or select the default storage option. Since the phone has 5GB of user memory, this would be more than enough until you are not installing large games. You can store music and videos in the memory card. (R U KIDDING??? ONLY VIDEO n MUSIC)
