Watcher0-

I've had one of these for several weeks now, and there are things I like and dislike about it.

My previous 'phone was a Samsung S3 and there is one standout feature on that I wish was on the ZTE, the multi-screen feature. I've not been able to easily get to grips with running multi apps and then finding them after I open another. There is a gesture function; a 3-finger sideways wipe which works sometimes. Otherwise I have to go back to the app icon and set it going again. I've not been able to figure out if that creates another instance of the programme in memory or just opens the already running one.

Another beef is the car connection, with the S3 it connected to the car audio and it immediately played my music tracks. The ZTE connects, but then I have to select an audio app and choose music to play.

To answer your specific questions: the sound levels are marginally better than the S3, the dolby system does enhance the music quality, but what can you expect from a pair of 1/2" tiny speakers? I wouldn't listen to music on any 'phone's internal speakers, I'd rather have silence.

Battery life is excellent, it has a deep-sleep mode you can set to go into, I set it for 10.00pm until 6:00am, and get around 3 days use, with bluetooth and either wi-fi or data always enabled.

Unless you have huge hands or are extremely dexterous, one-handed operation is not something I'd go for, the 'phone is not small. Maybe a 16 year-old who can text at 50wpm can do it, I can't.

I ordered a couple of cases online, one a belt-clip pouch type faux leather for 3 quid and a combination silicon/hardshell/belt clip type for almost £6. The faux leather works as expected, but the silicon case was for a different ZTE when it arrived, the buttons were in the wrong place and constantly minimised the volume. I set to work with a stanley blade and fixed that problem and it is now satisfactory. With just the silicon the fingerprint sensor works as normal, with the hard shell it's a bit more problematic. I haven't bothered to try and reset the sensor reading with my fingers at a steeper angle to see if that will work, it's on my to-do list.

All in all, I think I prefer the ZTE marginally, but only because of the big screen, it is really good for GPS in the car. I purchased a goose-neck stand which screws to the passenger's seat mounting and it works very well in my car as a GPS., much easier to read than the S3 with it's small screen.

If I could work out a way to easily switch between apps on the ZTE it would be almost perfect.

Maybe someone on this forum has some ideas?

Best of luck, Tony.

you can hold "back" button and switch between apps

Yes, I read the instructions and discovered this yesterday. Shows you sometimes it's good to actually read them.

I still wish there was a multi-window facility though.

Who knows! Maybe not... If they already launched marshmallow for Axon Pro, I think we can have our update before the summer, but this is only an opinion

Update

This is the response I got when I asked ZTE UK if there will be an update

Hi Hitesh, thanks for your message. We do not have any updates at the moment but keep an eye out on our social media channels for updates when they come. We hope that helped. Thanks, the ZTE team.

Doesn't sound to promising for anything soon..
[ZTE Axon Pro] magullo:
As a company willing to make the big jump, from being a general Chinese reseller to a known brand, they failed. Axon was a good idea, but good hardware and no software support is bad. Much better go with cheaper producer, at least you won't pay that much for a phone.

Or stick to much more respected brands, like Oneplus or Meizu.
[ZTE Axon Pro] judsonzhao:
Received mine yesterday.

1) The power button feels super flimsy, how about your guys'? It feels totally different comparing to volume and camera button

2) upgraded to Marshmallow today, somehow it really feels laggy. Not even as smooth as my Oneplue 1 running on CM12

Any input will be highly appreciated!
[ZTE Axon Pro] dellup:
There's no marshmallow update for axon elite at the moment, are you sure that's the phone you're talking about?

Hello

I have zte axon elite.

I live in France,so excuse me for my poor (english, US) langage.

I don't know how to post my question, i try here.

I can't use another app for sms.

I install several apps, and it doesn't work,i try with gosms, evolve and another i forgot the name.

I can't use this new sms app by default.

Just the sms app in default in the phone is proposed to be my sms app by default.

Other question, when i wake up my screen, i have two hours, mine(in France) and another with +7h.

How delete this second hour ?

Anyone to help me ?

Thanks guys.
[ZTE Axon Pro] bfrrh:
Try to set hangouts as a default sms app in apk setting ( hangouts settings, not system ones ) , thats how it worked for me, and as for the clock thing no clue. Maybe check your clock apk to see if You have set two time zones by accident.
[ZTE Axon Pro] stef27410:
I don't have hangsout.

I hate all those apps which connect, like facebook, google, gmail etc....

For the clock it's the original apps.

When i recieved the phone it was like that.
[ZTE Axon Pro] bfrrh:
Ok, then download hangouts from play store and try to set it as a main sms app. Just to see if it works.
[ZTE Axon Pro] stef27410:
I had hangsout and i hate this app.

I uninstalled it.

Ok

I will try your technic.

Hello!

I have update B04 and using Portuguese language.

When I record a video or sound with dolby digital plus on, the sound is terrible full of static. If I turn dolby digital plus off, and I record a video the sound is normal. Apparently this problem doesn´t occur with phone calls...

I also noticed that when I use the default music player to ear music, dolby digital plus turns off...

Does anyone noticed this problem?
[ZTE Axon Pro] karmantyu:
Yes music player and dolby has bugs. For me exchange client has bugs too so I can not use it to access my company's system. ?
[ZTE Axon Pro] bfrrh:
Did it work for You ?

let us know :)
[ZTE Axon Pro] stef27410:

It doesn't work.
[ZTE Axon Pro] stef27410:
Hello

I installed hangout, i can use this app by default, but i can't use another app.

I have 2 choices :

1>i select hangout apps by défault.

2>i select sms system apps by default.

I have no other possibility in the sms app by default settings.

Yesterday i installed gosms, and i can't use it, because i can't make this app by default.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @ChefHooah:
So here is where I'm @:

Until a few days ago I had a custom ROM (cm12.1) running on my S3 I9300 International. I encrypted it weeks ago.

So now I decided to decrypt it. I did this by heading to the settings = Backup & reset and tapping the Factory reset option at the bottom of the screen.

What happened is that my phone rebooted and got stuck in the startup of TWRP recovery (so the TWRP logo keeps blinking, it doesn't get me into recovery).

So now my phone doesn't do anything. I only can get into downloading mode. Downloading mode says the following:

Odin mode

Product name: GT-I9300

Custom binary download: Yes (3 counts)

System status: Custom

So I downloaded Odin and started it. Odin sees my phone. I tried to install some stock firmware (don't know if this is the right solution), but it failed.

What can I do to get my phone operational again?

I really need some help. The did read the forums. But I'm no pro and i don't know what to do.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stevica Smederevac:
Explain in details how did Odin fail!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @ChefHooah:
I started Odin3 v3.10 and plugged in my phone. In box AP I added the md5 file (I9300XXUGOC1_I9300TNLGOC1_I9300BOUGNB1_HOME.tar.md5) and in the options menu I checked auto reboot and F. Reset Time. And hit the Start button.

After a couple of minutes Odin said something like FAILS.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stevica Smederevac:
That "something" is what i wanted to know. Print screen when Odin stops with Fail at the end.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @ChefHooah:
Hi

You requested a screenshot about the Odin procedure. So I restarted Odin and retried to install the firmware, so that I could take some screenshots. It did PASS! this time. I have no clue why it failed last time.

When the phone rebooted after the Odin install, it gave a message that the partition was bad. So the phone did a reboot and fixed the errors. And now the phone works.

I installed a dutch T-Mobile firmware Android 4.3. So now I only have to root the phone to and install a custom ROM (ArchiDroid) once again.

I wanna thank you for replying and trying to help me. Much appreciated. What is you're opinion on what was wrong with my phone? What would be the technology name about the error
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stevica Smederevac:
Who knows, so many things could have gone wrong. I never encrypted my phone so maybe you did something wrong when decrypting. As far as Odin's issue, there are number of things that could go wrong. Important thin is that it works now[emoji106][emoji481]

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] oranzie:
Hello,

I own a Hyundai I35 2014,

I have the phone connected via Bluetooth, and i can make and receive calls just fine, all is loud and clear.

But it will not play Music (not from YouTube, not from google Music) when i hit AD2P

I checked some forums and other sites, i tried unpairing, i tried force stop and remove data and clear cache, i tried to do almost anything - nothing worked.

i also do not have the "Media Audio" option under options in Bluetooth device properties (when you click the round icon next to the car device name) - but also ,

My brother has LG G3 (android 5.0) and he is ABLE to play music just fine - He also do not have the "Media Audio" option in bluetooth device properties.

Both phones properties look the same, but only the LG G3 is playing music once AD2P is chosen in the Car.

any help would be much appreciated.

thanks !
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] raduque:
Sounds like a vehicle issue - most phones will not stream audio to a device which doesn't present it with the A2DP profile. Maybe you need to master reset your car's stereo or check with the dealership for a stereo FW update.

Ford just recently released an updated firmware for Sync and now I get mp3 metadata on the display and it auto-reconnects to BT after shutting the truck off. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] oranzie:
I`v actually done that, but how can i blame the car when my brother's LG G3 works great with it, and my Wife's iPhone 6Plus works great as well ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] raduque:
Just from a quick Google search it seems the bluetooth in that car (I'm gonna assume you have a Hyundai ix35, since no "i35" exists) is flaky and problematic.

I would call the dealer and ask if there's a system update to fix BT issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] ScottyNuttz:
I've had an ongoing issue with my Pioneer head unit where it will stop working with Media Playback and continue to connect for call audio. Each time it does this I have to clear the Bluetooth memory on my Pioneer unit. Perhaps your Hyundai has a similar option? They you can repair the device and it should work.

Edit: I should add that this was never an issue with my previous 2 phones (a Samsung Captivate and Nexus 4).
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Discordanent:
I remember on my old Verizon Note 2 I could just download busybox drivers and stuff and then hook it in the PC and just run ghetto root and it rooted it automatically with no hassle, and now I'm seeing bootloading and ODIN stuff and I'm pretty much a noob at this stuff, so is there an easier method that roots automatically or I don't have to do much?

Sorry :l
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Easiest method I know of would be to flash TWRP via Odin and then flash supersu from TWRP.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nijom:
yes...

1. Download TWRP for Note 3(your model) from twrp.me

2. Download supersu for Note 3 and copy to Phone/SD card. (both TWRP and Supersu have XDA threads as well)

3. Download and install Samsung drivers in PC.

4. Download and open ODIN in PC.

5. Follow "Odin Flash" instructions (connect Phone and get into Download mode using key combo) from TWRP download page and install via ODIN.

6. After installing, Power Off phone and get into Recovery (by key combo) and flash Supersu.

7. Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache.

8. Power up.

It looks big but just a 10 mins work :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenny1991:
Why Flash twrp? If only root needed. Wouldn't it be easier just to flash supersu in odin?

modules vs updating software

hi,

I have some xperia modules, for example Xperia Xposed, 20MP SuperiorAuto, Link2sd and custom bootanimation. Will I have to do something more to successfully update my software using your pr-rooted rom? Or your general instruction will be enough?

Ps. What can I restore from full recovery backup? Is this backup restore all applications with data? ( I now it isn't a question connected with this post, but I hope it isn't a problem to answer it)

Thanks for all help ;)
[Xperia Z2 General] AK2H:
1. It's highly recommended to do a factory reset (if you didn't, your phone will be laggy and battery will drain)

BUT, if you don't want to do a factory reset, uninstall the xposed framework and modules before you flash the firmware and install them again after flashing.

2. via TWRP recovery you can back up :

TA"Trim Area", System, Data, Boot"Kernel"and Cache

So you can restore all apps with data.
