Hi, i just bought it yesterday, for my mum actually. But then, I feel regret a bit becoz she is a Samsung user before. So, im afraid lenovo ui is a bit difficult for her.
By the way, the performance is awesome. No lag at all. But there is some problem that I found so far -difficult to monitor battery life. This phone doesnt have battery graph at settings, so need to install 3rd party apps (gsam battery monitor/battery monitor widget, but stop responding many times) -camera is bad in low light condition. -ussd code cannot expand (only 1 line when use *118#), so I cannot read the content. Hopefully someone have the solution. -heated up easily when using video recording (hotter than playing subway surf) Min temp: 28 Max. : 40 In the pics is my battery stats. Idle overnight and then heavy use with gaming, browsing and downloading ~rooted with Chinese twrp recovery This post has been edited by ashraf095: Sep 28 2014, 10:56 AM Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(asifniz @ Aug 24 2015, 07:23 PM) Just got this Lenovo A806 from DirectD (ordered online) for RM489 with tempered glass & flip cover. Short answer, no.. Rooting is the only choice you have. Even if you can get system update, you will lose all google apps after update. USSD code can be fixed, check previous page ( already forgot which page)Price for the set is decent enough considering the specs of it. LYN members had warned to get FDD-LTE set but as I ordered online so was unable to check the set before. The set that I got was TD-LTE, but DirectD says the set is checked & it supports Maxis & Celcom 4G and all 3G networks. The set is also pre-installed with all Google apps. services, play store, maps, etc. But sadly it also came with lot of bloatware. Few issues that I have had so far: 1) No protected background apps. Open WhatsApp, Viber or Messenger, it will closed done after a few seconds and will not show any message or call notifications. Will only show notification when active. 2) One line USSD codes. Will only show single line for USSD codes, a member mentioned a solution but that needs rooting the phone. Have never rooted the phone, I'm reluctant to do that. 3) Lots of bloatware, draining battery. 4) No way to update the system. Members above mentioned that a system update is available, my version is an older one but there is no option to update the system in the phone. So will DirectD help me with these issues? |
