People are confused by the fires.
This is the Galaxy Android Firestarter App.
It is a featured app.

Wish I had known about that app when I needed matches the other day to start the BBQ...

I’m waiting for the S9. :-}
The old S4 is doing fine.
The S8 looks good too if rumor holds.

Pretty good argument for user replaceable batteries.

Drill a 3.5mm hole in it to let the heat out.

Drill a 3.5mm hole in it to let the heat out. use at least two holes, and then pump water with anti-freeze solution through it to better cool it down. That will be even better. . .

A Samsung spokesman said on Friday that the issue is completely unrelated to batteries, calling the incidents isolated cases related to mass production issues. He added that the company was conducting close examinations of the issue. -
Wall Street Journal.
This is just more FUD from a couple of unconfirmed sources in South Korea. A non-issue.

My S4 still works great, though the original battery had swollen. I upgraded a couple of weeks ago to the LG V10. I WILL have my replaceable battery, dammit!
To: Swordmaker
I predict they may reconsider the value of doing away with replaceable battery’s. That is a good thing.

Just the same, take the back off of your S4 and check your battery. Spare batteries are cheap on Amazon.

"A Samsung spokesman said on Friday that the issue is completely unrelated to batteries, calling the incidents isolated cases related to mass production issues. He added that the company was conducting close examinations of the issue." - Wall Street Journal. In other words, the Samsung spokesman spoke before Samsung had determined exactly what the problem was.

No, if you would read what was written, they know it’s not the batteries, it’s other issues and they are tracking it down.
I know you love to spread FUD, but this is kind of really over-the-top.

Well, there is ONE very good thing Apple does well, not perfect, but very well: TESTING! Things work well with Apple. Not always (my iPhone 4 dialed 911 for just about every voice command), but this Samsung problem would be very surprising if an Apple product did this.
Who is running that disaster of a company at Samsung?? Even their appliances are becoming a consumer nightmare. Their phones are having inexcusable problems.
Sad things is, no one will lose their job over this. They’ll all just chalk it up to a “technical glitch” and pay themselves billions in bonuses.

“No, if you would read what was written, they know its not the batteries, its other issues and they are tracking it down.”
Still a battery life issue regardless of the causation.
I’m no Apple fan, but I am by far a worse enemy of managerial incompetence such as what we are seeing with Samsung.
