Reason for editing: How to restore the "brick"

[F1XR]

migunn,

On your devices, or specifically on yours, besides reboots, did something else pop up on the 55 firmware? By the way, at Tmall what was the price? I bought my own in retail for 12,990.

[AJIekceu]

This phone is not popular. Few places have info, few forums, there was no topic for 4pda ...
I wrote to TP, I urge the rest to do the same!
satanabagfixWith wifi problems are not noticed.
I noticed that the bluetooth ate a lot of batteries - 37 percent. I listened to music in the car for 30 minutes. I think to try to turn off the extra profiles ..

I adhere to the same opinion .... I am picking up my mother to replace her outdated device and considered this as an option, but now after reading the forum there is some ambiguous opinion about this product ... I didn’t even think that ASUS is having problems with software updates and with its very workability. It seems that this smart should go for those who are not looking for special performance, but at the same time have a good autonomy and averaged camera (as I understood in complex lighting and twilight with it, not really at all). In general, with a good camera, autonomy and a sturdy build, something for an adequate price is not so easy right now at the right price to choose. I'm still confused by the absence of Gorilla Glass, which previously was on the Max series.

He recently started in sales, to be exact, about a month ago +/- he appeared, I think that this is normal. There are no problems with downloading content, either via Wi-Fi or mobile connection, in general, as for the phone itself - all the basic functions and not only - work properly, only small bugs came out of the shell, I generally thought that I was the only one . And according to the updates, Asus himself cannot decide, then they hang on of the site, then they are no longer there, it means they know that there are some minor flaws. Check the settings of the router, maybe something in it.

[F1XR]

koschmar23,

The subject is absolutely beautiful, everything works fine, except for the small nuances of the shell, which will certainly be corrected. If you do not consider the Chinese, then no one offers anything adequately there for the money in retail - regarding the pleasant appearance with the metal in a circle, and the autonomy and the camera, there are 7c for 11, but there is nothing besides NFC, + compromises - with regards to plastic, autonomy, camera, which is weaker there, and where have you seen absolutely trouble-free devices? Name for example at least 1. If you compare the camera with the same Sony XA1 in auto mode - I did not notice the difference, but it costs about 20 thousand. I repeat, the device is absolutely beautiful and in terms of price / quality ratio too. And everything else, within the limits of permissible - it works properly, I just shared the work of the TP, which I encountered for the first time and clarified information on PTA, I myself have APUS devices in my hands, in which there are no critical problems. The camera during the day shoots amazingly for this money, in the evening - miracles do not happen, we need light. Yes, according to bluetooth, and here is the version, if I'm not mistaken 4.2, - everything plays, but spends more intensive charge, I confirm the words of Alexey. It remains now to wait for the update, but in general the device works perfectly.

[satanabagfix]

F1XR,
That's why I asked about wi-fi that there is no possibility to check other phones and a router, as I understand it, this is just a coincidence and everything depends on the services like VC and telegram itself. :-)
And another question, do you also turn on the bluetooth itself after turning the device on and off?

[sam213]

I use the subject for a week. Moved with Redmi 4x. ZenUI certainly loses MiUI in functionality, but not much. I confirm a bug with a button of running applications, it occurs in about half of the use cases. The sound in the picture is quiet. Otherwise, everything is fine. The main size is not shovels. And now the questions. How to make a root? How to add applications to the list for cloning? How to increase the sound in the headphones?

Posted 06/17/2018 6:47 PM:

satanabagfix, yeah, turns on. It is not clear why.

[migunn]

F1XR,
In Tmolla, it is still being sold for 9711 rubles. (version 2/16).
I do not observe a bug with the button of running applications on the 55 firmware, as it was on 43.

P.S. Link to the firmware removed. New link to page 3 in my posts.

Thank you very much, we will test, be sure to accomplish your goal after a couple of days of operation. I would not even think to keep the archive after the update, but you saved, just some kind of miracle). Thanks again a lot.

[migunn]

F1XR,
Yes, I downloaded to the computer :) then I transferred it to the phone. The computer is a storehouse of downloaded files :) Download, test, I think it will not be worse.

[F1XR]

sam213,

Regarding the sound, it is loud, but no more, if it is enough in monitors and ordinary drops (I understand that everything is individual), then they will definitely leave in the interchannel ears, I have this on the asus of all, it was never a problem, but With the root, it was probably necessary for xiaomi, and even there the majority of the root is not needed, if you read the thread about laptop 5 from xiaomi, and the sound / volume may be corrected with updates, there is also a question of taste, someone is quiet, someone is loud. I don’t remember the standard twin software, so that you can clone two by two, this is all echo from syami, I think that the playmarket will solve this question.

[migunn]

An update has just arrived at 55 firmware :)

And 55 will be asked for; 57;) Let's see what will be better.

all hello!)))
how glad I’ve created a discussion on this unit) I’m going to purchase this unit version 3/32 in the near future)
Can someone throw off live photos of the phone itself + screenshots of installed applications (from settings) + RAM consumption in version 3/32?
I will be very grateful)

Take it. Phone will not disappoint you. As for the photo, nothing can replace a trip to the store and feeling it in the hands of reality. I still don’t want to wear a case and glue on it :)
What screenshots and which applications do you want to see? Did not quite understand.
Consumption of RAM under the spoiler.

I do not see the point in the photos of the phone. They do not convey reality, you need to turn it around :-)
As for the RAM, almost 2 gig are always busy, for everything else about 1.1 or 1.2 gig remains. In principle, problems in everyday work do not arise. Games did not check.
By the way, the Android system itself takes as much as 777 mb.

[AJIekceu]

migunn, the firmware that you posted, is it installed on your 3/32 version?

[migunn]

AJIekceu,
Yes, my version is at 3/32. My wife doesn’t want to install her 2/16 yet, at the moment she is happy with everything on 31 firmware.

What screenshots and what applications

Screenshots of all applications from "Settings-Applications", or was this item removed in Android 8?

[AJIekceu]

migunn, your firmware is not installed. After the reboot, I got into the recovery, there was an installation log. Error 21 (signature, footer). I understand that the firmware is not for my device.
Has anyone else installed the previously installed '55' update on their device?

[migunn]

AJIekceu,
What is your version of the device?
