[Device Reviews and Information] mkdonald:
I was starting to wonder about that.

ROM Checker Basic reports root access not properly installed.

ROM Checker reports root access - no access, though SU found.

The KingUser App (the only App installed that other than Romaster - see below - that wasn't a "regular" App) says need to visit their .net site and get PC version and connect up phone.

Question guyz : is that appropriate/right thing to do ?

(FYI: Although I bought from etotalk, I chose NOT to have them do their ROM/rooting/etc as i wanted standard Ulefone firmware/software, whereas 2 years ago with Chinese Lenovo A820 I did take their ROM, though later replaced it with Lambda ROM)

Thanks for that - hadn't got around to investigating as still busy Wimbledon watching :)

The phone, and Apps, definitely report as Android 5.1. Tapping it 5 times brings up Lollipop and taps for more coloured lollipops.

That said looking for what differences 5.0->5.1 I see from Nexus reports that various animations eg Clock/rotate & pop down menus on WiFi/BT but none visible on Be Touch 2 that I can see.

The phone's Settings - "About Phone" reports:

Android version: 5.1

Baseband version: MOLY.LR9.W1423.MD.LWTG.MP.V20.P2, 2015/06/15 09:49

& Wireless Update reports "your system is currently up to date" with "Ulefone_be touch 2_20150618" [ie as build number

More bits of feedback/comment from ownership/use:

As regards (rapid?) charging:

I haven't read any more but this morning when down to 1% I turned off and connected up their 1.5A charger at 11:21

15% 11:39 23% 11:47 27% 11:52 when turned it back on. Currently at 44% after 57 mins with 1h23m until full on AC per report.

Sensors have the jitters ?

With the phone 'at rest' and looking at Senror readings as reported by CPU-Z App Sensors screen:

The Accelerometer, Orientation & Magnetometer readings aren't stable. with eg X 0.1/.2/.3 Y 0.7/.8/.9 Z 9.7/.8/.9/10.

(There are also Proximity and Light sensors reported, and Pressure (but that one's blank).

That 'jitter' is reflected on the (bundled) Compass app which mostly swings to North but deviates off briefly every few seconds and can be swinging all over the place.

It also seems to be reflected in the Google Maps App where one's location blue circle has an arrow point, which I think is meant to reflect the direction the phone is pointing in at that moment, and it jitters around presumably based on a jittery sensor- ie mostly right but not stable.

(My old Lenovo A820 Android 4.1 is only reported as having a 3-axis Accelerometer but its readings are 100% stable when phone isn't moving and didn't have a 'blue arrow' in the Maps.)

I hadn't thought re vibrate. Incoming call does cause a vibration but it is very "mild" and I can hear the vibrator action (in among the ringtone) more than I can feel it thru the chassis!

That is with Settings... Sounds & notification at default General = Ring & Vibrate + Settings @ Vibrate ON and Dial-pad touch tones ON and Touch sounds ON [latter at least was OFF when received I think]

Generally the volume of ring (and sound) is fairly low to my ears.
