Why does S4 battery drain so fast?
sid
over 1 year ago
If you think your Galaxy S4 battery life is draining faster than normal, we recommend shutting off Wi-Fi Bluetooth, NFC, GPS and/or cellular data when you don't them. You can turn all of those off from inside the Galaxy S4's settings and the device's quick menu makes them even easier to monitor.

Hard reset on the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini For a hard reset, you'll need to ensure that you turn your smartphone completely off. Press down on the volume rocker, the home button and the lock button simultaneously. As soon as the S4 Mini vibrates, release the lock button and continue holding down on the other two buttons.

Why is my samsung galaxy s4 mini battery draining so fast?
kandice.mann
about 2 years ago
Switch off unused settings options and auto-sync on the Galaxy S4. Leaving certain settings on may cause your battery to slowly but surely decline. If you have NFC, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS and Mobile Hotspot turned on at all times, it will drain battery pretty rapidly.
