    Transporter, 03 Nov 2013I own galaxy S4 and Mega 6.3.. both phones are awesome resp... morei guess your Sync is on. Open the notification bar and check whether the sync tab is turned on.

    Sync should be kept closed when not required.... it eats up most of the battery.

              I own galaxy S4 and Mega 6.3.. both phones are awesome respectively..but the only problem is battery life of S4!! I already charged 100% both phones.. mega have a very excellent battery life.. but s4 is draining fast! 100% to 92% in just 20minutes without opening mobile data or any apps!!! This battery life is worst than blackberry! I already set the brightness to 30% only.. closed all running apps.. but after checking battery status.. it draining on screen 49% and android 34%.. hell!!

                I found screen brighter than specs suggested,very light to carry,massive off the planet features and settings and no bigger than s3 in fact it fely lots better than s3.I had no faults or complaints besides the ones mentioned...Audio was good and speaker past my test for tonal quality.

                P.S. I am not a big gamer I cant understand it on a mobile without proper precision controller but do play simple games ie jewel quest and other timewaster games..Its best you ask someone else about gaming.

                I have a Nexus 5 on way now,bet it does not last long..

                        Overall a smoother and fluid experience than 4.3, gallery opens much faster, as well as camera. UI responsiveness is better than before. But as I said hardware acceleration seems to be broken on some apps, especially those which need access to internet, thus you'll notice stuttering and jitter on some apps, which is really frustrating to be honest.

I just said you were more experienced about Odin as you have used it. So i wasn't the proper person for answering this. And I know some stuff about ODIN. You are right but it has to be handled with care.

You will only notice slowness if the SD card is Class 4 or less, and even that when you are watching a video from it, possibly 720p etc, otherwise you won't notice it. You can just remove the SD card just to see for yourself. Anyway, with 4.3 the gallery is at least 50% faster, as well as the camera opening. Great, just wish the H/W acceleration wasn't broken on other apps, I am confident it will be fixed, otherwise 4.3 is a great update.
                                    NO, you will NOT void warranty by using Odin. Samsung Service Center uses Odin, it's their own flashing application.
