The GPS isn't good at all in general (I have a verge). The accuracy of the distance is really bad. Compared to a GPS bicycle computer (I have compared it to wahoo, garmin and lezyne) the distance recorded with the watch is always too less. It differs 2-5% of the real distance.
[Amazfit] kulaki0:
I have the same issue with my GTR :( It looks like off the road/streets by 20meter, sometimes on one side sometimes on the other so it is just very inaccurate... My pace worked much better (until I went inside the pool with it), I regret I didn't buy a Stratos to replace instead of the GTR. Also if you are used to a allways-on-display it is hard to downgrade to AMOLED, pity the transflective LCDs seems to be abandoned.
[Amazfit] winni21:
Yes i really hope they will be able to fix that because the watch is unusable in this configuration for sport tracking... again they've released their product too early without finishing to develop it...

My Stratos was really good for GPS tracking but HR sensor died...

Bought this GTR thinking it could be better as it is their latest product (and hope it would be more reliable)

Lets hope for a good update

[Amazfit] tomtret:
Same.... :(
[Amazfit] kulaki0:
Friday I received the new firmware and after going for a couple of runs I can confirm that it didn't fix the accurancy. The only improvement I see is that it fixes satellites very fast now (before it would take a minute)
[Amazfit] ozi87:
With amazfit app and with GTR... I could not be more disappointed.
[Amazfit] egunsenti:
very fast? you are lucky then... It's true that sometimes it fixes them faster, but other times dosen't fix any at all.

I will try to return it back to the seller.

I'm having the same problem. Last night the A-GPS was updated, but it didn't seem to improve at all. Does anyone has any news regarding this problem?
[Amazfit] winni21:
just wait for Amazfit update (according to Amazfit and Gearbest...)
[Amazfit] kulaki0:
The shop offered a full refund and I decided to return mine. Will buy the Stratos 3 instead.
[Amazfit] Datmoe:
Why do you think it will be netter?:confused:
[Amazfit] kulaki0:
My Pace was pretty good and from what I read the Stratos is also fine. The Stratos 3 support more GPS satellites than the GTR so at least is not the same hardware
[Amazfit] ajlw:
After reading all the bad news about the GPS accuracy, I tried a 6 km run yesterday for the first time with my new GTR (aluminium). I was really surprised that the track it recorded was actually correct and pretty accurate. I think there many factors that influence the performance of the GPS.
[Amazfit] p3t1:
I'm not experiencing any of these issues.

Takes around 10secs to fix and I find it pretty accurate, at least comparing with my phone and I can see, it tracks exactly where I've been.
[Amazfit] AngelTudorache:
From where did you ordered the watch?

Thank you!
[Amazfit] MiZter_Z:
Can you tell us your hardware revision and when you bought the GTR? Maybe there is already a new version. Mine is V0.31.19.17. You find it in N&F under Tools => Firmware update => Device information
[Amazfit] kulaki0:
What do you mean by "exactly where I have been"? I have also seen phones with even worse GPS signal than the GTR. But my workouts don't follow the streets on the map, sometimes a few meters to the left, sometimes to the right. This ends up with up to +10% or -10% total distance. So depends what you mean with pretty accurate.

---------- Post added at 09:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:16 AM ----------

I do mean exactly what I said, I can see it tracked exactly the roads I've walked and exactly when I deviate from the main road. (I'm not running though) even when I was playing with my dog, I could see it on the map.

I'm not sure what phones you buy, but I consider mine very accurate...
[Amazfit] kulaki0:
Thanks for clarifying. I didn't test it walking, only running but you might have a point there. Someone already mentioned that the watch didn't handle very well the fast movements and reported much better when being static.

Regarding phone's with bad signal my Zenfone 5Z is very accurate but I also have a Galaxy A8 from work that is even worse than the GTR tracking running.
[Amazfit] MiZter_Z:
When I go for a walk, it looks like this to me. not really exactly.

GPS is very bad

Cheers all,

a week ago I had a try.

We walked 15 Km, after 9 km we had a break in a restaurant, my smartphone withe komoot app and my amazfit GTR didn't stop recording in this time.

At the end my smartphone shows me 15 Km recorded while the amazfit GTR shows 25 km.

That is very bad.

It's exactly the same for me :( I still have to try it out more. I just went for a small bike round and a walk... but both were a completely mess. It was not even close to my path.

I think I will have to send it back, unfortunately, because I like the watch but like this it's just usless

[Amazfit] leugim1:
Same with the Stratos 3! I was expecting much better accuracy but it is completely off. It takes a long time to get signal and I even had a run of app. 7 km that the watch recognized as about 13 km. Even when trying different combinations (GPS + Galileu / Glonass). Really disappointed.
[Amazfit] alan5673:
Does anyone know if the 42mm GTR watch suffers from the same GPS issues as the 47mm watch or if it is working as it should?

I now in some of the earlier posts it was suggested that the 42mm watch didn't suffer as badly from GPS issues, but i'd like to know for certain now that users have had some time to test after 2 months use.

My 47mm watch with the latest firmware is probably at its worst in terms of getting a fix with the latest update. I think the tracking accuracy has improved but it takes multiple attempts and about 10 minutes of time to get a gps lock to that i can start an activity
[Amazfit] winni21:
I do not agree just got mine after return the gtr. It has really nothing to do. GPS fix is normal (30s) acruacy is very good (stays on road no more flying man between buildings)
[Amazfit] ozi87:
Hi all,

I know it's a old thread, but i still have the watch.

I am a flying building men, gps it´s very very bad, i went for a run with a friend, and he had a garmin and the defence it´s astronomic.

I wonder, if we go for a run with the phone, it's better ?

There is any fix to gps?
[Android Apps and Games] jbutterfly385:
So, I hate google bloatware and first thing I do, always, is disable all of their apps which are unnecessary to me, and that includes Chrome and Youtube (I prefer to use Opera for both), but lately the apps just show up on my screen without my enabling them.

I have a Huawei P30, if that makes any difference to all and any of you that are willing to help me.

What I want to know is how do i stop it from happening, because going to disable them over and over and over and over again seems pointless.

Thank you!

[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Guides, News, & Discussion] Damionix:
Same Boat

I am currently listing mine for sale right now. But my problems stem more from the software side of things. Like not supporting Dual Apps for all applications, Call recording not working in the US, Private SMS, etc.

The bootloader being unlocked prevents me returning the phone back to them. But if by Friday I get no offers I will contact Mobile Advance directly and see what they will charge me to return the phone with the bootloader unlocked.

There should be a way to relock the bootloader as I only used the phone for 2 hours before realizing all the things it lacked. I had to root to make sure all my modules worked.

I really wanted to keep it too. Anyway, Cheers. Sorry you are disappointed too.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Guides, News, & Discussion] troy5890:
Thanks for your overview. How were the speakers for you?
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Guides, News, & Discussion] Damionix:
Great

For me the speakers are great. The hardware of the phone is top notch. As stated, my issue is on the software of side. Some might say superficial. For what I paid for the phone, it is honestly not bad at all.

As for the battery life, it is subjective because of the variations in use cases. I think it is good, not great compared to other phones I have used in the past that have had 5000mAh battery and above. But then again, they all didn't have the top of the line processor. Usually just mid range.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Guides, News, & Discussion] Hoodnj:
Call Recording

Just wanted to say that I have the US version and call recording is working fine for me. Do you know if you set it up correctly? If you have any questions I can try to help.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Guides, News, & Discussion] Damionix:
Really?

How do you have it working? Is it with a third party app rooted? Or with the built-in phone app?

With the built -in phone app, it says recording but after the call, the call recording folder is empty.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Guides, News, & Discussion] Hoodnj:
I just turned on the setting in the phone app and it has worked for me ever since. I'm using the built in phone app and I haven't rooted or unlocked bootloader so it is 100% stock right now (I don't even have the August security patch yet). The settings are weird because they are split in two different places.

To get to the first place you:

Open the phone app > three dots (top right) > call recordings > three dots (top right) > settings

For the second place you:

Open the phone app > three dots (top right) > settings > call > advanced > call recording
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Guides, News, & Discussion] Damionix:
Oh My Gosh

Well, I had factory reset the phone and prepared it for sale. After reading what you said, I turned it on again, inserted my SIM and did a test call and it recorded both times with no issues whatsoever. I wonder what the issue could have been. I am positive I gave it all the rights and access it asked for. Weird. But it is working now. Thanks. I am beginning to reconsider selling it. That is one huge thing ticked off the list. And to my surprise too, Google Voice notifications are now working just fine. No issues. You must have brought me good luck :)
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Guides, News, & Discussion] Hoodnj:
I've had similar issues with phones in the past where things didn't work for no apparent reason and we're solved with a factory reset with seemingly no change. But call recording was also a big thing for me so I made sure to check before I bought it that that was included. Can't say anything about the Google Voice notifications as I don't use it but I'm glad I could bring the good luck and let me know if there is something else I could help you with. Personally I am loving the my Z6 and will definitely be keeping it.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Guides, News, & Discussion] neo_lithic3K:
I would have thought that xposed or other rooted apps would be able to give you the features you need (dual apps, call recording, etc)... but I don't know enough about those features to offer a solution.

In regards to getting your money back, you can also look into your credit card to see if it offers return protection. My Chase Sapphire Reserve will refund me up to $500 per item if the vendor won't take it back. American Express Blue also has offers return protection up to $300 per item. Other credit cards may have similar benefits, but you'll need to read their fine print to get all the details.. This won't apply in your situation, but if an item is accidentally damaged, credit cards usually will refund the cost of the device, I think up to $1000 or something like that.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Guides, News, & Discussion] neo_lithic3K:
I almost never use the speakers, but when I tested it, it was fine. It's not top of the line sound and it sounds more tin-ny and slightly less bass than my Pixel 2 XL, but I wouldn't have noticed that unless I was comparing them side by side. The Zenfone 6's speakers can get very loud though, to the point of hurting my ears, which is a plus.... whereas the Pixel 2 XL can't get that loud.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Guides, News, & Discussion] newsguy99:
I returned mine as well.

No Wifi Calling

No VoLTE

I'm on T-Mobile (or a MVNO of it), and the call quality was horrible.

Dialing a number also was the pits. As I would get a spinning circle for more than 10 seconds, before connecting to the network, and attempting to dial.

Sometimes, it would never dial the number, even though, I had 3 and 4 bars showing on the phone.

Sound quality was OK, but, I was expecting a little more. (yes, I tried different audio settings too)

The cameras, were fun, took good pictures, but, for me, didn't quite have the color exposure or "POP" I thought I should get with a 48MP camera (set in 48MP mode)

This was Version C (USA phone). Very disappointed!

I'm seriously considering returning mine....

I just created another thread specifically about the ultra-weak, useless vibration. I've missed more notifications in my first week of ownership than I ever have, even on budget phones.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Guides, News, & Discussion] smohanv:
I am joining this club of returning the device. I received RMA to return my device. My reasons for returning are,

1. The flip camera is making tapping noise when not in use. When the phone is in our pocket and while walking it is making tapping noise.

2. Device is heavier than expected.

3. Rear fingerprint scanner is a nuisance when put the phone in car holder. We have to use key pad to unlock. Front scanner is more convenient.

The alternate phone I have ordered is xioami mi 9. I heard that this phone ticks all boxes of a flagship phone and half the price of flagship phones.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Guides, News, & Discussion] jackscagnetti:
I also have a similar issue as you this 4) touchscreen: While holding the phone, the screen would sometimes register a touch at the bottom right edge even when I didn't intend to. I thought it was my fault and that I was accidentally touching the screen somehow, but I eventually figured out that I wasn't doing anything wrong.

Does anyone else have this issue or know of a fix? Other than that this phone is fantastic and by far better than any other phone I have owned.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Redthirst:
I'm still on 8.1, for information.

So usually, according to AccuBattery, my Mi A2 stays in Deep Sleep for ~98% of the screen-off time, which gives me a nice battery drain rate of about 0.5% per hour.

However, a couple of days ago I've noticed higher battery drain while idle. I've checked the stats, and AccuBattery tells me that my phone only sleeps for 85-92% of the time, which surprisingly increases the battery drain considerably.

Question is - is there any way to find out what exactly keeps it from Deep Sleep? Because it certainly does still go into it, but not as much as it used to. I didn't install any new apps or system updates(still using the stock 8.1, as I've said) for a while, so I'm really not sure what could be causing that.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Rupamxx:
That is why we have Greenify for.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Redthirst:
Nah, I've actually used that before, and while it seemed to help at the time, right now it doesn't. I've actually uninstalled it for the time being just to see how it goes.

Right now, I've checked my stats through Battery Historian and it seems like radios are at least one of the reasons for the wakelocks. Right now I'm on airplane mode and the drain is at a respectable 0.6% per hour. However, it still only deep sleeps for 93% of the time, while in the past it was 98, so apparently it's also something else.

Another thing that apparently wakes my device a fair bit is ANDROID_SYSTEM : deviceidle_maint. But I've no idea what to do about it and whether or not it's normal or expected.
