Do you guys use any back cover or case? I'm starting to have few scratches on the back after two weeks so I'm looking for something. But really don't know what the to buy. I want something slim so it won't make the phone even bigger. When I had g2 I had 0.3mm thin back cover and it was enough. Unfortunately can't find anything similar for note 2. All I see are some metal full body cases or tpu ugly ones. I'll appreciate any ideas :)

I have used this case on my zenfone 6 after few days the back become yellowish and full of scratch currently I am using ipaky case it's make the phone tough and bit bulky and now I am also searching for a slim and transparent case
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] PingGam:
I have a Nillkin TPU Transparent soft case, which is for the back of the phone only and very slim.

It has built in covers for the charging port and headphone jack that plugin, and is very good quality unlike cheaper soft plastic cases. I am very happy with it.

DISABLING THEMES won't make me feel like updating this phone again EVER!.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] tomax80:
I'm getting it via OTA , I opened the updates app and it was already downloading it in background :)
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] DStealth:
Hi all,

Anybody found solution for 2 or 3 things which drives me crazy using the device :

1. Notification for lock screen

2. Sim management - selection primary dialing SIM, not always ask

3. Some widget freezes, including no communication via skype/viber/whatsapp/Line etc when the phone is in sleep (maybe push mail related)

Hope meizu fix these really annoying problems with their rom's soon, while they drives me mad.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] nic025:
Hi guys. Planning to buy this device. May I know how's the battery life? Can you give average screen time using it straight for playing games, browsing(wifi/data)? TIA
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] Rechin Rodney:
Anything new in this update coz my 4.5.4 works pretty well
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] jackhung:
I'm running 4.5.4i and rooted. Do I just do an update via ota? Do I need to unroot first?
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] paparick07:
Yes you can update your phone. But take not that after the update, your phone will become unrooted.

---------- Post added at 11:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:34 AM ----------

I don't know in playing games but I use MangaRock app w/ WIFI on. I read manga for straight 6hours and still got 54% battery life. Playing games seems to drain battery faster though. Maybe 4-5hrs SOT, depends on how demanding the game is.

Going from I to U to A???

Hi guys! I’m thinking of buying a M2 Note, but the seller is selling models which originally had U firmware, on which

I (international) firmware has been installed. But I have some questions which you may be able to help with. Thanks in advance.

Can I safely install the A version on such a phone? If so, will installing the official U version update.zip from Meizu and then installing the official A version from there do the trick?

If I do this, will I get OTA updates for the A version?

If I revert to U version and keep it that way, what’s the difference between U and A versions?
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] DStealth:
You can switch whatever you want. But keep in mind the difference is Chinese bloatware and lack of Google market in non-I versions, also A has fewer languages. Can be installed but better stick with "I" if you're not from China. On other note OTA updates are only for the version installed on the device, you should do them manually in order to switch between them.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] spikywits:
I guess I should better skip this. Themes or Personalization is priority for me and removing that means it's no no deal for me. The minor update is not worth.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] paparick07:
Me too, At first they said "Chinese content only, more language will be coming soon". But now, they are permanently disabling themes maybe because they can't translate every content on personalize app.. I felt cheated. They advertised the phone with themes now they're removing it. How about a refund. ?

[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] DStealth:
1. Tried already not working as it should be IMHO. Now using Heads-up Notifications but again multiple messages are a mess...:(

2. Will let a try, how to set it as a default Dialer , while after submitting the call redirects me to the default one again ?

3. They were set that was the first i did, but still huge delay are seen as not delivered messages also.

Edit: Thanks m8, just reborn my wife's device with your suggestions

1. After working with setting AcDisplay works like a charm

2. This App is marvelous, can override device call setting for sure after customizing it...very, very goood application just installed it on my LG device and my children devices also :))

3. Just to help anyone else has this issue - "Go to Security again and this time go to powersaving mode settings and put there the apps that you don’t want to be removed from stand by or else after 2-3 mins they will."

So is there any fix for the 'untouchable' 1-2mm zone on each side of the screen? (it works when dragging)
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] avexdevil:
my m2 note simply just stopped working all of a sudden. no indication of any issues prior to failure; picked it up and the screen just wouldn't turn on. I found a youtube video that replicates the problem I have:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjAp3Np5f5U

Battery symbol appears for a moment when AC is plugged in, disappears and flyme won't boot. Tried the vol up + vol down + power button reset in varying orders, didn't work either.

I had my handset imported from china, so I doubt the warranty is any good.

anyone here experience the same problem with a fix handy? Much appreciated!

[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] FazF:
Hey. So I bought one of these but it came with the a version of the firmware. I've tried following a guide someone posted previously to put the i version on , I can't link it since this is my first post.

But I can't seem to get root access. I go into Settings-> Accounts-> My Flyme-> Personal settings And System Privileges is set to open. When I click on it, I see a couple of apps that I installed as part of the guide and a root checker, these are set to ask by default but I never get asked, when I set to allow they still don't work. I'm not really sure what the issue is, could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

Side note my flyme account isn't bound to a number as I'm waiting on a sim card, I don't know if that makes a difference or not.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] DStealth:
Just download the latest version for your phone put it in the root folder and update via Vol&+ recovery. After this root with flyme account should work, i have the same problem with the version the phone came.

Regards,
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] FazF:
Thanks for the reply. So put the update.zip in the root folder and do that? I tried that before, but it gave an error. I forget what error exactly, but I assumed it was because I tried to do it with an i update. Or do you mean for me to update it to the latest a version and then I can root it and go from there?

EDIT: With the i version I get a "Firmware Corrupt" error. Will try with the a version but it's taking a long time to download.

Just to update, I was able to update it to a new a version and from there was able to root it and do the other stuff to change it to i. Thanks a lot DStealth.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] DStealth:

[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] Gilach:
Hi guys! I've been using M2 Note for about 3 weeks and overall I'm very happy with it, there are some minuses and compromises, but nothing major, especially considering the price. Only stronger complaint is a battery life. I've been reading and hearing about great battery life from various sources but I can't repeat such high praises from my experience. Well, battery lasts until end of the day without much problems with moderate usage, but I'm experiencing some serious battery drain in standby.

If I go to battery consumption stats, biggest consumer is not a screen which would be expected but Android OS and Android System with notable consumption from Phone Standby also. Battery drains about 15% overnight (about 8-9 hours) which is too much IMO. First on suspect list were Google apps (I use Gmail, Calendar, Chrome, Drive, Google now, Maps etc) and sync but turning sync off didn't help. I even tried with airplane mode overnight but battery still drained about 12% in 8 hours with very high usage from Andoid OS and system. It looks like something is preventing phone from sleeping. For example, right now phone is being unplugged for 6h 43min, Android OS consumed 35% of battery, Android System 11% and Screen also 11%. Android OS stats shows that it was kept awake for 5h and 10min (out of 6h 43min total unplugged time).

So my question is do you guys also experience similar battery drain, is it normal for this phone or what?

My unit is stock international version with FlyMe OS 4.5.4I.

Battery life

Hi guys, I would like to recommend you what I do to improve battery life on my Meizu M2 Note:

imgur.com/a/9QWSw

1) Go to Security app

2) Select Power

3) Select App management (icon with 4 squares on the bottom)

4) Deactivate all apps - I leave ON only Dropbox for camera backups, banking app for account balance notifications and Yr.no app for weather widget on my home screen.

This does auto clean power-consuming background apps in 3 minutes upon standby.

My battery life has increased from 1 day to 2 days. (ususally 55-60% battery left at the end of the first day when I go to bed)

I hope it will help you.

Can I make little bit overclock this phone? For example 1.5ghz
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] MikusP:
TDD and FDD are two completely different LTE Technologies. AFAIK, TDD is mostly China only and a few other Asian countries, FDD covers the rest of the world. They are separated into different frequencies and identified by Band Numbers. My Chinese "A" handset uses FDD Bands: 1, 3, 7. And TDD Bands: 38, 39, 40, 41.

Make sure you buy your phone from a reputable source and you should get the specs you pay for. Check this link for more LTE band info. And, if in doubt, make sure to Google "your carrier name + LTE frequencies" or "your carrier name + 4G frequencies" to find out which LTE frequencies you need
