Can someone put a screenshot proving it?

I'm overseas and I want to buy a sprint Edge, but I need to confirm it first to buy the phone.

And... Does it only work on wcdma or does the 4g work too?

I'm facing some issue with my AZP 2 4GB Version.

1. Sim 1 4G Sim network goes in every mins. If i use 3G or 2G sim in Sim 1 slot it works fine. with 4G sim it gives an error as well Unfortunately, the process com.phone has stopped. Did factor reset. I was on firmware 2.15 when i did that. Yesterday i has=d upgraded to V2.17. need to test again with 4G sim. Is it the same or still had an isuse. If yes than i'll return the phone with cash back.

2. Circle Flip cover does not work. I have purchased it in Rs. 499 and after applying the cover, nothing happens.

3. 2 to 3 times a day i have an error Unfortunately, the process com.android.systemui has stopped

What should i do??

[ZenFone 2 General] coolmaster121:
Whats the solution to battery life and overheating during regular use (not on the charger)?
[ZenFone 2 General] dahorns10:
You realize your issues with heat build during charging are because of the fast-charge technology, right? Totally normal, as a ton of power is flowing into the phone. You can always use a slow charger to charge the phone while in use. You shouldn't have any heat build up during use when not also charging. I know I don't. The hottest the phone gets is slightly warm.
[ZenFone 2 General] troy5890:
For overheating, use a different adapter if you have the 1.8 GHz version. Battery life, just get a third party battery saver and turn on airplane mode. That will save you a ton of battery. I did it for mine and the phone last from 6 A.M to 10 P.M.

Very dependent on ambient temperatures as well.
[ZenFone 2 General] Ace42:
Anandtech has confirmed that the panel in the ZF2 is inefficient compared to competitors, so not much can be done about that aspect. Their analysis of the phone is in depth, as are their other reviews.

I would like to return mine because the battery is performing right under the Optimus G I owned. With 3000mAh I was looking forward to battery comparable to the G2. If the next OTA improves battery, then I'll keep the Asus.

"I'd Totally Hug You, If That Was Something I Did"
[ZenFone 2 General] coolmaster121:
Dang, so the bad battery is a hardware related (screen tech) issue based on that review.
[ZenFone 2 General] coolmaster121:
No offense, but I don't think that solution would work for me or other people who want to use the phone. Turning off all of the radios with AirPlane mode mades it a unless paperweight.
[ZenFone 2 General] troy5890:
Yeah you're right about that but at least you get to still use the WiFi.

Sent from my ZE550ML
[ZenFone 2 General] Ace42:
Yeah. The people from Anandtech are pretty good at evaluating devices. Also this would explain why the battery drains rapidly during use & barely when inactive. Battery life is very important to me, so a phone with a removable battery might be best.

"I'd Totally Hug You, If That Was Something I Did"
[ZenFone 2 General] dahorns10:
One thing to keep in mind, is that though the display uses a lot of power, the Intel chip itself seems very efficient. Not only does it sleep well, but as is shown in the PCMark testing on the Anand website, it uses its power very efficiently. Thus, though the phone's maximum display on time is much lower than the other phones, its practical usage time is fairly similar. I get around 5 hours screen on time with 1-2 days of sleep time.
[ZenFone 2 General] Ace42:
For me getting even 4hrs is requiring me to disable apps, use greenify to kill background apps, and use min brightness. I tried factory resets, so doing those over and over isn't improving my battery. Honestly I just want a new phone with the battery life of my G2, since development is slowing down for it.

"I'd Totally Hug You, If That Was Something I Did"
[ZenFone 2 General] troy5890:
Now hold on guys. Even if this phone has some battery issues, we can all still say that this phone is very acceptable. Right?

Sent from my ZE550ML
[ZenFone 2 General] Ace42:
Besides battery I don't have any performance complaints. This is the main aspect I complain about. I'm still impressed that mine rarely warms up, signal is better than my G2, the battery cover has the brushed look like my Asus laptop, and so on.

"I'd Totally Hug You, If That Was Something I Did"

[ZenFone 2 General] devsk:
people having issues with battery and random killing of processes despite having tonnes of free RAM (at least on 4GB phone), should look at:

https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=98332

and run some basic tests (like print the Kill stats through terminal or 'adb shell') to see if you are affected by that. Its a activity manager bug where it likes to kill despite having plenty of RAM and no need to kill. Think of AM just killing and restarting tasks in the background for no reason, what will it do to your battery! Remember early days of task managers which were supposed to "improve performance" by killing inactive processes and reclaiming memory? Its something like that.

This is a serious issue with Android (KK and Lollipop both are affected) and some of it is mitigated in 5.1.1. I really think this will not be a big issue (although it will linger at a small scale) when 5.1.1 comes out on this phone. I have finalized on this phone as well after a lot research...:)
[ZenFone 2 General] coolmaster121:
Well. My zf2 is packed back up and will be shipped back to newegg. Kind of sad, I really wanted to love this phone but the heat, apps compatibility, and low screen brightness sealed the deal on the return. Back to Nexus 5.
[ZenFone 2 General] devsk:
what's the "apps compatibility" problem? Are you talking about x86 vs arm, and most apps being arm compatible? I think that's not an issue with most usual apps but with some special apps (I could not find any actually). Please list the apps which you found incompatible.

[ZenFone 2 General] cherrydha:
Hangout app is working, but it uses data rather voice calling like google voice app.
[ZenFone 2 General] Pilz:
Thats true, the same standard thing happens on my Moto X, Nexus 6 and a little less on my Shield Tablet. My battery hits 122°F

(48.8°C) while quick charging and tethering at the same time. It has never shut off from heat but it definitely will slow down on occasion when tethering and quick charging due to the thermal throttling.

Greenify with root works really well. I use Nova launcher so I made a DT2S with geeenify hibernate shortcut when I turn my screen off. I also greenified all of the apps that could drain battery with the root option and donation package. Once kernels come out you could always down clock you CPU slightly in trust case. I don't use the optimized power plan or any any power option that comes with the phone. I keep it at max performance all day with the developer forced GPU 2D rendering on. I get decent battery life but no where near my 6-7Hours SOT that my Nexus 6 can get if I don't tether or screw with flashing sh*t all day.

By using max performance and not using power saving option, does that mean you are not using the smart saving or I should say turning off smart saving? I'm doing pretty much the same thing but with smart saving on. Will see if it makes a different by turning it off
[ZenFone 2 General] obscuresword:
I think I'm going to wait on purchasing the device for a bit. Asus might update the panel to increase battery life.
[ZenFone 2 General] re2onance:
Do you think they would actually produce a different IPS-LCD screen that supports panel self refresh? What about all the people that bought phones early? Are they known for substituting parts midway through a product cycle?
[ZenFone 2 General] obscuresword:
They might. The thing is Asus did something similar with the original Zenfone 5 (A500CG). They changed out the Intel Z2580/PowerVR SGX544MP2 combo for a Snapdragon 400/Adreno 305 about 3 months after release of the original, thus creating the A500KL model. I think the reasons for the change was due to adding 4G, heating and battery life problems. Since Intel's SOC isn't the culprit this time around I'm thinking Asus will just change out screens if they get enough complaints.
[ZenFone 2 General] jdaclutch:
I think their answer to this is called "asus zenfone selfie"
[ZenFone 2 General] obscuresword:
Yeah I saw but it is using a downgrade midrange processor and GPU :(
[ZenFone 2 General] re2onance:
Was that planned even before the launch of the Zenfone 5 (A500CG) or was it a response to problems with the A500CG?
[ZenFone 2 General] obscuresword:
Not sure. Asus is weird like this lol. I don't remember any mention of the A500KL until the A500CG was already out.
[ZenFone 2 General] re2onance:
I find that most of the time product releases close to each other are not due to direct complaints from the previous product. It probably takes a lot of time to design, market, distribute a phone from scratch. I think it's more likely that Asus had multiple products in development simultaneously, but didn't announce them until they were ready to be released. I've noticed that their product lines are incredibly complicated compared to their competitors. They are pretty much the opposite of Apple in this respect.

Honestly, in this industry I think they sometimes aren't even ready to be released, but they do so anyways just to get it to market as fast as possible.
[ZenFone 2 General] edtrud:
Phone is really nice (4GB RAM/64GB), Battery lasts me for 2 whole days before recharging, which is also surprisingly fast. Coming from the Galaxy s5 I really do not like the Camera on the Zenfone2 it seems kind of grainy. I am also not getting any LTE on the phone just 4G (T-Mobile). The UI is not as bad as everything says it is, bu the bloatware is annoying. I've uninstalled alot of the useless apps but I am finding that the intel proccessor architecture is not compatible with some of my favorite apps. The Volume bottuns get kind of confusing sometimes and I have to flip the phone around to see what I am doing. If this phone would get a Cyanogenmod ROM then I would keep it, but the camera is a big deal to me. Luckily for me I bought it off amazon and have a 30 day time period to return the phone.
[ZenFone 2 General] troy5890:
For the camera, you can just turn off optimization and the picture quality will be drastically increased.

Just want to mention that 4G=LTE on this device. Testing with LTE discovery would tell you so.
[ZenFone 2 General] swiftden:
Is this phone unuseable while quick charging? Everything is slow and stuttering when it is quick charging. I don't know if this is normal. If I use a normal 2amp or 1amp charger, this does not happen. Anyone?
[ZenFone 2 General] swiftden:
Anyone? Thanks.
[ZenFone 2 General] re2onance:
Yeah, I don't have any issue with the phone being slow when quick charging. How you tried clearing cache / factory reset?
[ZenFone 2 General] lyeith:
that depends on the temperature. Quick changing tends to generane quite a bit of heat, so if the phone is already pretty hot, the SoC will end up throttling and you'll get lags
[ZenFone 2 General] swiftden:
Thanks guys, I guess throttling is normal under quick charge if the temp gets high.

With the release of OTA 3.0, everyone seems to be all over the place now. I'm really looking for what's offers the best performance. I'd think OTA 3.0 along with Bit's kernel would be it, but sadly the K-X variant of the current isn't as updated as the new K-U variant. Any advice?

This is from my rather limited research that you can simply flash a different firmware to "unlock" these bands which are supported by the hardware.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lyverbe:
Hey there, new member although I've been reading these forums for months.

I've owned an iPad for a couple of years now. I use it from time to time which requires me to charge it about once every 2 months. A couple of months ago, I bought a SM-T800 and thought the battery life was horrible. Keeping it completely idle for 24 hours still drained the battery 11%! After a while, I left it dead next to the iPad.

Hoping Lollipop would help this issue, I took the opportunity to completely wipe the tablet and restart from scratch. Each day, I attempted improvements (using BetterBatteryStats) and took notes of those changes. The best I could get is losing 6%/day while the tablet is off (that is, screen is off, not powered off).

Yes, I'm rooted. Not much is installed. According to BBS, com.google.android.gms is the worst with 1639 wakeups, but disabling Google Play Services didn't help.

Is 6%/day when idle considered normal? It amazes me that the iPad is losing about 1%/day.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
I've had on CM12 and it drained 0-1% while on idle. With touchwiz (lollipop or kk) I lost 6% on idle when I woke up from bed. So my result is that touchwiz usually has more drain than CM12. A few custom roms like Ironrom or Twdetox make it drain less from what I tested. But before you go through all that, I've seen a tweak to stop wake locks from Google services. I haven't test it throughly but seems promising.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lyverbe:
Wow. Me want that :)

Tell me more about that tweak. I'll be very happy to test it out.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
I don't see what the problem of a small amount of battery being used if the device is on is?

It's obvious it's going to use some power, there are still things running in the background or you'd never get messages, emails, sync etc. Really the whole point of leaving it on.

Android itself is not the problem, it's more to do with Google services and apps.

If you don't want those things turn it off imo or completely remove gapps.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acdbrn2000:
I use TWDetox v3.0 on my 8.4 tab s the SM-T800 version is beta at best experimental at worst at this time but I can give you my own experiences on a similar device, YMMV. On kitkat stock with my brightness turned almost all the way down and auto on, I also used greenify I would lose about 5-6% by the time I woke up. On this rom same basic settings wifi still on, greenify still on, tab set to low brightness I would lose about 1-2% over the same 8h though this os a debloated rom so a lot of samsung "highly important" apps are missing like milk and watch on and yea basically all the junk no one wants that runs at startup all the time.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lyverbe:
I'm not saying it's a problem. The question simply comes from the fact that I'm comparing my SM-T800's 6%/day loss versus iPad3's 1%/day and wonder if it's normal or not. After all, the iPad is also syncing stuff and it's barely using any battery. If everyone tell me their SM-T800 drains 1%/day too, then I'll know there's something wrong on my side. If not, I'll live with the fact that the SM-T800 drains 6%/day.

I went on Cyanogenmod's site and apparently the SM-T800 is not officially supported. I'll need to read http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s/development/rom-cyanogenmod-cm-12-0-sm-t800-16gb-t3005540.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pantezuma:
Hi to all. I recently bought an SM-T700 and still playing around with it.

I have disabled everything you could imagine when I turn off the screen:

Wifi Off

No Wifi Scanning

No Sync

No BlueTooth

Everything is off

Anyway, I'm also loosing around 6 to 8% in 24 hrs of idle / screen off.

I also have an old S2. If I put it in flight mode, it won't even lose even 1% during all night stand by.

Is there anything I'm missing here?

I don't see why it shall lose 6% if everything is off. It's just on doing nothing!

Thanks in advance and sorry for my english!
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lyverbe:
I was worried too and that's why I came here to ask if this situation is considered normal. It apparently is, unfortunately.

It seems the stock OS is taking more juice if we're comparing it with CM (according to DUHAsianSKILLZ) which only takes 1%/day. If it's true, I fail to understand why the stock OS takes at least 6 times more than that for the same results. That can't be good and we can't blame everything on bloatware.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
This is a screenshot I a few months ago. This was when I went to bed and woke up in the morning. I forget what I did but, I did do something I don't remember that would stop wakelocks. I think I did a few things in app ops. This was touchwiz Lollipop.

Now here's CM12. I didn't change any settings and left it alone. It handled wake locks well and went to deep sleep. No drain after going to bed and waking up in morning.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pantezuma:
Thanks for your replies.

I bought this just two weeks ago and was amazed about how low was the standby battery consumption after upgrading to LL via OTA.

But suddenly (I installed a few apps) it started increasing the idle consumption.

I'm going to factory reset the tablet and turn everything off to see what happens (I have nothing important yet on it as I was just learning how to use it and hesitant about rooting ir or not, finally decided 'Not yet').

As I'm not rooted i feel there isn't much I can do about it (On my old S2 i use Greenify, Amplify, App Quarantine, Disable Services, etc.).

If somebody else have info regarding idle battery consumption on stock and non rooted I'd really appreciate it (Wifi off, location off, sync off, etc.)

Best regards

Mariano.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pleske:
before I rooted and flashed cm I was only getting 2% drain overnight just by turning on airplane mode.

You could also try turning on ultra power saving mode before you sleep, I think it said it has something like 140 days battery life when I turned that mode on at full charge.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lyverbe:
I tried it during the last 24 hours and the battery still drained 6% by sitting on my desk in ultra power saving mode. I think this mode reduces the display which drains less battery but I don't think it has any effect on the processor itself. The wakelocks still happen.

I'll try the airplane mode for the next 24 hours but I fear it won't do much.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lyverbe:
Oh my God!!!

Airplane mode during 24 hours. Battery drain result: 0%

How can this be? I remember once trying to simply disable WiFi and it didn't change a thing. I don't understand why activating airplane mode changes anything. Could it be that with WiFi off, Android's system still tries to access stuff (creating wakelocks) but, in airplane mode, it completely halts all data related activities (halt related wakelocks)?

I'm truly astonished by this test. Thank you very much Pleske for that suggestion!

Next test: Airplane mode on with WiFi on.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lyverbe:
Airplane mode with WiFi enabled still drained 6%.

I installed "Timed Toggles" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.ergodicity.timedtoggles) to automatically enable Airplane mode and disable WiFi at midnight. It's still not as impressive as the iPad, but it's incredibly better than losing 11% each day.
