OT a bit...

There is someone selling Huawei Ascend P7 in garage sales, stated it is a Dual Sim Dual Standby with LTE support...

Anyone can provide a link for the P7 spec as I couldn't find it at vmall.my...

Guys, if you dun mind i ask.
Which online store have the fastest shipping track record?

I read that lelong vmall is pretty slow, not really sure of others. Superbuy would be a good one?

Depends on where you're located. Vmall itself (at vmall.my) is the fastest outside of Klang Valley since they are the source of the stock, and City-link is almost next-day delivery for outside of Klang Valley.

Vmall.my, almost the next day delivery. That's good

abit late, but some minor thoughts after using this phone for nearly 2 weeks.
overall i am very satisfied with this phone. the display is great, speaker is not very loud but the sound is clear. if you are long time android user, (know how to clear sytem files..maintain the phone) then this phone will have zero lag. Rear camera perfomance is just ok compare to those flagship phone but what i found very interesting is it can take a very clear macro shot - some flagship phone cannot even do this. but for normal usage like me, nothing to complain d. about the battery, it can definitely match with those top tier phone.. i can easily get 5 hour or more SOT from 100% to 20%, in normal mode. (gaming.. fb etc). i didnt do heavy gaming so cant comment on 3D gaming, but those who complain about this should just go get a pc and stop b****ing about a rm500 phone. youtube is laggy, common problem but not one i care. the phone comes with flash light etc useful apps, and group those bloatware together so the UI look very clan. still haven explore very deep to this phone, but for a RM500 phone, really nothing to complain. few of my friend is not feeling confident about china phone, but after play with honor 3c they totally change their view. maybe after one year it will start laggy or what but during that time i am sure huawei ad come out with a better spec phone with economical price.. still.. android phone’s rule.. you know what to expect when you spend only that price.. but this phone definitely worth every penny of it.. first time using china phone.. but definitely not my last time.. thumbsup to huawei.. thumbup.gif

Your reply ascertain my confidence of this phone.
I'm thinking to buy this phone and install with nova/apex launcher, the 2gb ram and mt6582 CPU should be able to make the phone as a reliable workhorse.
The plus point will be the reliability of GPS, which always a weak point of mediatek chipset.

As it is mediatek phone, you might need look to for SP_Flash tool and flash a custom through "scatter-loading" file mode.

Or try a file to flash CWM into your phone, good luck in un-bricking the phone.

Guys, anyone got problem with making call? Mine suddenly cant make call. It appear emergency call only and no service below telco name. But 3G seems working as usual.
*
Its more like the telco issue. Try with another phone? Another sim card slot?

Btw, as of no signal, how could you get any data connection?

Hi. New to phone, overwhelmed by so many postings. Wondering:

Can the light screen backgrounds be set to dark to save battery?
Where is the Apps Drawer?

Brightness can be adjusted for sure. Low, mid, high or auto.
The stock launcher doesn't come with Apps drawer, just like MIUI/Ios style if you ask me.
If you need an apps drawer, install other launcher and you are good to go.

Got mine from Superbuy/Vmall on Sunday... Was excited to test Antutu n stuff...
Realize the touch screen was not sensitive, nvm i tot, then go to message...... Then the touch screen go crazy...
Wallawei, taking double/triple input from 1 touch....
So... Sunday received, Monday sent for warranty claim...
Tuesday they call me whether i would recommend huawei to family n friends.......
I was like WTH lady, u want to get burn ka???
Thank god i was in a good mood. If not the operator sure got burn la...
U sell me defective unit n u ask if i would recommend u to others!!!

After bought, waited 1week+ to receive, after receive, need to wait another 3-4 weeks for replacement...
So i assume 1.5month for the 100+++ saving... I assume its a good deal....
Especially to those whose phone work right away after bought... No hanky panky problem lime mine....
But....I really worry how the phone will survive if their QC is like this meh...
*
lemon unit?

Couldn't conclude the QC issue with just a case. Unless those of millions unit in China also experience the same issue.
If your RMA unit also behave the same, then perhaps you can conclude your opinion above.

how does the dual sim work for whatapps, If I have 1 sim active the other sim only for data, whatapps will pick up which sim?
*
Data connection doesn't necessary must come from the sim card that whatsapp registered with.
Whatsapp - Sim1, data - Sim2. Not an issue.
Try to replace sim2 with wifi, as long as you get the data connection will do.

my fren ask me, actually i want to know also ur answer :  redmi 1s 499 ap set, honor 3c rm499 original set. which 1 he should pick.... she keep on looking reading both phone review at google... still cant decide...

i tell her honor good at ori / bigger screen / bigger ram
1s good at more update (i think) /snapgradon .
both also dual sim but honor  is 1 sim 3g, 1 sim 2g, 1s i not sure is it like moto g both also can 3g or like honor.

all good was base on paper only as i don hv both phone not sure the performance. guys an help us up ?
*
The only thing that I see honor 3c over redmi 1s would be the extra 1gb ram.
Perhaps let see what phone your friend is using now. How well can he/she lives with 1gb ram?
I had few android phones before and found that 1gb ram doesn't really sufficient when you open many apps, unless you are using ram free-ing apps all the time to keep the usable ram amount at healthy level.

Everything else, honor 3c/redmi 1s are comparable.

she using s2...didnt check her phone is s2g or non g... she want change cause s2 not lasting on battery. looks old also... is time to upgrade.

if it galaxy s2, that's only 1gb ram.

Redmi 1s/Honor 3c both should be faster than S2, honor 3c 2gb will come extra handy for smoothness (less lag, more ram theoretically, still very much OS dependable)
