Time for a new battery:
Current battery (from 2014) was only lasting 2 hours per charge.
Off to Amazon.. $12 later new battery and lo and behold I'm up to 16 hours per charge.. I'm sure that will only increase as the batter graph has only 1 hour of data to plot.
Yes my cell phone is old as dirt (Samsung Galaxy S4) but it works fine and I have no desire to spend $600+ for a new one. This is actually my second S4 (I bought one for $50 off ebay) so I have two.. one is more of a garage phone for looking up specs and music.
They are good phone, run everything with no issues and I have rooted and upgraded both to Android 5.0.1.
