Yeah… Here is another Samsung Galaxy S4 issue ~ Wi-Fi intermittent disconnects. HTC One fans, are you happy now? All right, back to the issue. I usually keep my Galaxy S4 connected to 3G data connection. Seldom use WiFi even I am at home unless I am downloading big size files. So I did not notice much about this intermittent disconnect WiFi issue. Yes, I do face this issue too with my D-Link router (TM Streamyx bundle modem – D-Link DSL-2640B) just like everyone else. By the way, my Google Nexus 4 also failed to detect that router at first. Solved after changing wireless channel.
Err… My Samsung Galaxy S4 is not problem free. I heard several users complaint about slow loading of their Galaxy S4 camera. And faced hang, crash and auto reboot issue. I tried to duplicate this issue but failed until this early morning. Yes, my Galaxy S4 rebooted by itself after I switched from rear camera to front camera. Again, I tried to duplicate this issue again but failed.
Wow… Polaris Office 5 by InfraWare is coming faster than I thought. Yes, you can download and install Polaris Office 5 for free on your Samsung Galaxy S4 now. No need to use Polaris viewer 5 anymore and unleash the ability to edit office documents like Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF. Hmm… The current version of Polaris Office 5 does not seem to support cloud service such as Google Docs, Dropbox and Box.net yet. Hopefully, future version will support it soon.
