    Tab S 8.4 LTE battery drains extremely fast and erratically

    I wouldn't waste your time with all these apps and "slow charges", I did and none of that worked, just a waste of time trying to fix a defective battery. Just take it to an authorized warranty repair center with your receipt, they'll fix it in 1 to 2 days. It's quicker and less headache than...

    Tab S 8.4 LTE battery drains extremely fast and erratically

    So I took it for warranty repair, they replaced the battery and recalibrate it, and it works fine now, lasts longer than iPad 3 even when I have mobile data and wifi on. So it was a defective battery, if you guys are having similar issues I suggest you do the same. I took it into a warranty...

    Tab S 8.4 LTE battery drains extremely fast and erratically

    Yeah, I've calibrated when full, calibrated when empty, every charge is a full cycle charge, 100 to <10 (it takes 1h 30m) so naturally. I think I'm giving up on something I have done or can do to fix it, it's gotta be a bad unit. Unfortunately I'm US military and stationed in Italy, and my tab s...

But trust me, they still happen. Also, on a similar note, it's...

    No, I've only been using the stock Samsung charger it came with, and when I said I was trying to give it as much juice as possible, apparently bump charging was what I was doing, when I did that, I had fully charged the device with it off, and bump charged it while off also, for about 4 hours of...

    Two problems with my Tab S :( please help

    This is not correct, free RAM does not equal more speed, RAM is designed to be used, if you clear your RAM, you are clearing your apps quickly accessible information and will force the app to use your hard drive instead, and you will SLOW DOWN YOUR TAB. Full ram (or in the low to mid 2GBs) is...

    Tab S 8.4 LTE battery drains extremely fast and erratically

    I read about the amazing battery life of this thing, however I am not able to hit 2 hours off a full charge, with power saving mode on, wifi and location settings off, screen on basic color scheme at 20%, background processes off. I'm using mobile Internet for browsing the Web (no videos) and...
