[ZTE Axon Pro] Crazyhat:
Ok, I supposed it. Anyway, today I asked to Spanish ZTE support about this matter and they told me I had to ask to international ZTE support for the country which from I have to download the updates because otherwise, I can install the wrong update. So, I wrote and sent them attached my IMEI number and also the built version but I'm afraid they won't answer to me.... I'll tell you about it if I have news.

Hi Guys, I am from UK and tempted to buy Axon elite. Given your experience with the phone, would you suggest buying this phone? I have read about terrible call and music output, can someone confirm, if this is still true - i.e. software/hardware issue. How about the camera? The specs look good but the issues mentioned, coupled by lack of customer support and custom roms make me ask this question. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crazyhat:
In my opinion, this is a good device in general terms. It takes a good hardware and software is also quite good. The only problem I found is the international support is really bad. I would recommend you to buy it in the official website of UK instead of Ebay. In this way, you will get the official zte support from UK. It will be much better. The device will be sold in each european country in a short time

Hi! Two questions:

How can I expand notifications? They seem only "single-lined"...

Bad support

The phone looks good, bit the software is a big mess, widgets are not running , battery drain , issue with the dual sim etc... XTE customer care doesnt even know anything about that phone ...so buy something else this is not a brand i would ever suggest to anyone.

I guess now we are stock on buggy B02 version...the phone doesnt load the latest software update after flashing the Thai B02 . What a damn mess is that phone!
[ZTE Axon Pro] Technoboi:
It supports AT&T LTE Band17-700MHz according to: http://www.willmyphonework.net/

This is an interesting point. I currently have a OnePlus One since August 2014 and I am looking for a replacement. I have decided not to spend too much money anymore on expensive flagships but to either wait until price falls or consider non-mainstream Asian models. I am looking into the LG G4 with it's reduced price but really want my phone to have fingerprint scanner.

Which brings me to the Elite but I am concerned for support especially beyond Lollipop. It seems this is still on 5.02? Not a fan of the UI either but I guess I can install Google or Nova Launcher.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Nexus5-32GB:
I changed my OnePlus One for Axon Elite and have to say it wasnt smart move. Battery is really fast draining and quality of voice calls is really bad. Speaker is not great either. Stay with OnePlus One I recon :)
[ZTE Axon Pro] Technoboi:
Thanks for the heads up. Back to my search or LG G4 it is...minis fingerprint reader. :(
[ZTE Axon Pro] Nexus5-32GB:
Yeah LG G4 was in my search as well, or even G3 is still great phone. Went for OPPO R7Plus in the end as I wanted to see if I like 6" screen. I do :D
[ZTE Axon Pro] pici001:
I did searching from ztedevice.com for axon lated firmware in many countries like Sweden Singapor Burma Cambodia including Thailand show only ZTE_A2016V1.0.0B02

so i'm not sure about B04 but I did ask zte thailand facebook admin for it.

hope he can answer...
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crazyhat:
Hope you have a better luck than me. I wrote them about ten times and they replied me twice. In both, they told me... "we are very sorry for your experience and bla, bla, bla.... We are going to send your requirement to the properly department and bla, bla, bla...". After that, I'm still waiting for any solution.

Anyway, I think we will have the B04 version sooner than later... I'm crossing my fingers! [emoji6]

Can anyone confirm if it has stereo speakers or only 1 speaker on top?
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crazyhat:
There is a speaker for voice calls on the top and another one for multimedia sounds at the bottom. It is not an external stereo sound system, you can only listen sounds in stereo using headphones

Enviado desde mi ZTE A2016 mediante Tapatalk
[ZTE Axon Pro] zzzferino:
Tks, for your answer, bought 1 from gearbest, and waiting for it to be delivered. Does it bring headphones on the box?

[ZTE Axon Pro] Nexus5-32GB:
There were not enough phones in stock in first weeks of sale, thats right, I was lucky to get one in first wave :) The battery is amazing on ColorOS. It lasted me 72 hours last week and still had 15% of battery left. This in combination with OPPO rapid charge when battery gets from 0-75% in 35 minutes I have to love this phone really. I never had better experience with battery have to say. The battery last me only 2 days on CM rom, probably not so easy on juice as ColorOS. Next great thing about this phone is call quality. The sound is excellent. Better than Nexus 5 and OnePlus One which has very good voice call quality already. There are few bugs in ColorOS of course as in every other stock rom. For some reason Lastpass Manager and Pushbullet apps doesnt work well. Not as good and trouble free as on CM rom. Next thing is there might be a memory leak somewhere I only noticed recently, but did not report it yet.

The bad things about this phone are: camera - it sucks compare to any LG phone like G3, G4, Flex 2 etc. Still pictures are not so bad and you have nice features in camera like mods etc, but video recording is worst I have ever seen. 1080p video looks same as 720p, which is really BAD quality anyway, all blurry, no details, lot of ghosting specially in lower light condition and on top of that the sound quality is something like 80kbps. Very funny is the bitrate of video is something like crazy 25-30Mbps!!!! Still looks like crap!!!! I really can not understand WHO the hell let the camera in this phone be as ****ty as it is. I would fire him right away. Have a look yourself This is video recorded via this phone from some Thai guys who had it before official lunch :) I saw this when I had it preordered and got really nervous about it :D
[ZTE Axon Pro] Coldheat1906:
Thanks for the update!!!

I may just give my son my Axon Pro since his phone was stolen recently.... That way I can order the OPPO R7 Plus

Whats the b04 firmware ? 5.1.1 ? Is the launcher better. I saw a post where to download it
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crazyhat:
As far as I know, there is not any custom rom at this moments and B04 version is 5.0.2 Android version. This update corrects some mistakes on B03 version and some little bugs. I wrote to support asking for B04 update and they answered to me the following ....

Dear Valued ZTE Customer,

Sorry for the late reply.

The update tool for B04 has not been released, please use B02 version.

We will send you message to remind you update the phone as soon as the update tool is released.

Should there be further assistance required, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Best Regards*

So, if you know where can we get it from, would you mind to share it?

You need first to reinstall stock recovery. Otherwise you can get a brick. Read the thread that is on root
[ZTE Axon Pro] wqwave:
I have received the update notification. But when I update it says package mismatched. I do have stock recovery.

I then tried to flash beta version 02 manually but it says can't mount sdcard when it rebooted to recovery. Any idea what to do?

Thanks.

Anyone having issues with the notifications? Mine sometimes come in once every few hours or unless i open the app manually.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crazyhat:
1.In settings/notifications, check your settings options

2. In settings/power manager, check you are not killing your apps of interest in background

3. In Mi-assistant app, check the same that the previous point

Hi Crazyhat,

Yes the apps are definitely whitelisted and set to start on restart. I tried to restart phone and it is still the same. The notifications come in only after few hours.

Just put the file update.zip in root directory of the phone and go to definitions > update and do offline update

I had similar problems in the beginning, with B01 version but after that, my device worked well with B02. You can try it uninstalling the apps which are giving you problems and installing them again.

As a last resort, you can try it installing Push Notifications Fixer from Play Store, choosing between the two versions (with or without root) according your device.

Hi everyone, is there a way to change default browser? I change it in default apps, but it keeps going back to ZTE browser.

Thanks.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crazyhat:
You should only go to settings /default applications and then, choose the one you like among the browsers you have installed, but if it didn't work, maybe you can do another thing. Make a backup of your apps and data, except browsers. Then, make a factory reset and finally, restore your backups, install and try to use your favorite browser

Issue with Google play music and pocket cast

Hey guys need your help.. I've updated to b04..but if I use pocket cast or Google play music and turn off the screen so it plays in the background it causes system ui to crash... I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the apps but still have same issue?!
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crazyhat:
If I were you, I would make something similar like I told before to our previous mate.

Firstly, make an apps and data backup, except Pocket Cast and Google Play Music. Then, make a factory reset and check if Google Play Music works properly. If it doesn't work, it means you have any corrupt file in your firmware (not probably) but if it works well, restore your backups, install Pocket Cast and try again. If you continue having problems, it means the corrupt file is in any app, so you should repeat the previous steps and install your data and apps manually.

How do I change lock screen background image? Thanks.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crazyhat:
It depends on the launcher you are using, but if you use the stock launcher, simply, turn on your device and from lock screen, swipe your finger from bottom up and a curtain will appear. Then, you can choose among several options. Select "backgrounds" and choose the one you like. That is all...

[ZTE Axon Pro] VagueIdea:
Hi All,

Got the ZTE A2016 from Gearbest.com EU warehouse to here in UK a week ago. It was on sale and the total spend was £200. Which I thought was a pretty good deal for the specs on the phone.

The phone is in stock condition and I got the 2 updates immediately one by one and the firmware version now is B04.

I'm quite satisfied with the phone. One of the very few offerings with fingerprint sensor and NFC from China. Very performance, good display, Good camera, OK battery life.

Hi everyone.

I got my ZTE Axon Elite and I'm really fine with the phone. But one thing is odd. With my previous Sony Xperia Z1 my Car Hifi display showed the played song and I was able the pause, skip forward and so on via the controllers of the car. My ZTE Axon Elite also connects well with the car and music is played as it should be, but my car Hifi doesn't show any information of the played song and also it isn't possible to use the controllers of the car to pause and so on. Connected to a simple Bluetooth speaker I can use the one button on this to pause a song. I think there is a problem with the AVRCP. Does anyone has an idea to solve this problem? Thanks in advance.
[ZTE Axon Pro] BaxLario:
Does any one have the problem with SD card. I cannot write into or edit the SD card with apps like ES file explore and Titanium backup. But strangely i can use the stock file explore to edit the SD card. I can also use the stock Backup&restore App to back things up into SD card. When i tries to use ES to edit, like moving, copying inside the SD card. The ES file explore asks me to choose the SD card. But in the window i usually get to choose the SD card like in any other phone. This time in my Axon Elite, the SD card is not showing up. here is the screen shot i made from my phone:
[ZTE Axon Pro] BaxLario:
just 2 hours ago. my phone got bricked. i wanted to use an app called andro search, which i have restored from Nandroid Backup using the stock Backup&Restore app, where after i rooted the phone, where i no longer able to update the system even with the stock recovery installed, where i decided to restore the unrooted stock rom. this andro search app was not working properly. Then i decided to delete the app and install again from play store. just while it was installing. my phone restarts itself, and stuck at the axon logo. But luckily i was able to reboot to twrp recovery through adb, which i have flashed by following the tutorial from this thread http://xdaforums.com/zte-axon/development/zte-axon-elite-a2016-twrp-root-t3237760

the lesson learnt here. always regularly make nandroid backup, even when you think you phone is gonna be safe. also be careful with choosing with which apps you wanna restore both apps and the app data.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crazyhat:
This is normal. It's caused by the 5.02 version of Lollipop because it was designed in this way. Due to many users claimed to Google, it was corrected again in 5.1 version. So, to write on SD card you can only use the default explore manager because other apps won't work. When we have the update to Android 6.0, this problem will be solved

hey guys. i just found out what can also get my rooted Axon elite phone stuck in AXON logo. it is deactivating certain apps with root required app manager like device control or system app remover. i was afraid to deinstall the preinstalled apps. cause i was afraid to get the phone stuck in AXON Logo like last time when it happened to me. Btw last time i posted in this thread, i used a wrong term. boot loop or getting stuck in AXON logo is not bricked. i said 'my phone got bricked'. sorry about that. so i decided this time to deactivate some apps.

i tried just use the stock app manager which is the setting to deactivate the apps that are allowed to deactivate, nothing happened. but when i use system app remover to deactivate the apps that are not allowed to deactivate, the phone was automatically switched off and got stuck in the AXON logo.

I am also confused with this using this phone.

Hi.

Can anyone check ZTE AXON Elite sound with high ohm(+/-56) headphones?

Mine plays music much quieter, than previous ZTE Z7 NX506J with the same chip.

Hi there,

I just received mine ZTE Axon Elite yesterday. I'm very pleased with it.

Very good build quality! Everthing looks 'premium', even the pin for removal the SIM-slot.

For now I can say it's Android, so nothing new to that. But I also want the new Marshmallow.

At this moment I'm listening Spotify with it and I'm really stunned by it's sound quality. Wow! And that's with a standard earpeace.

I will try my 'real' earpeace from Shure this evening ...
[ZTE Axon Pro] vodvorezlaya:
I fully agree with your review, especially interesting to change the focus, after I photographed in bokeh mode.

Try to please - how loud sound in the headphones (which are included), and if there is a high impedance headphones 56 Ohm or the same.

Thank you!
[ZTE Axon Pro] igeorgie:
I've tested my SHURE SE425V and sounds terrific! I can be very loud. I don't know if these are high impedance headphones 56 Ohm. But they were very expensive ;)

I am considering buying this phone, but I read mixed reviews.

Can some people who have it tell me how the built-in speakers are for playing music? I don't expect anything amazing, but my old Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is pretty good, but when I got a OnePlus X, I was actually horrified by how awful it was.

How is battery life? One handed operation? Have you found a protective case that doesn't get in the way of the fingerprint sensor?

Thanks!
