Not experiencing any of those things with my Super. Ok, GPS isn't great but not terrible. Battery life is amazing, 2-3 days with moderate use. No wifi issues, much stronger than the Ulefone Be Touch 2 I had before. Fingerprint rarely fails and when it does it works on the second attempt.

If anyone in the UK wants to buy a brand new, boxed battery that I bought from Vifocal just drop me a PM, I can get it to you faster for the same price. For info I have moved on to a Umi Super and it's better in every regard apart from having an internal battery and a memory card slot shared...

No, one slot is sim or memory card but with it being 32gb memory I can probably live with that compared to just 16 on the Ulefone Power. It's a shame they all seem to be moving to a choice between 2nd sim or Micro SD, I loved that about the BT2.

I like the look of it but the 16gb memory is a bit of a deal breaker for me I think because I use 2 sims. I've ruled the Redmi out as well now, no 4g support for my network in the UK. Now looking at the Elephone P9000 and Oukitel K6000 Pro.

After getting my new batteries I was again happy with my BT2....and now I've gone and cracked the screen :mad: I'm not good when it comes to fixing electronics and have no confidence I would be able to complete a satisfactory repair (if I could get a screen which seem quite hard to come by) so...

Mine never smelt strange and held battery fine for calls but as soon as I did anything that involved data/wifi it dropped like a stone. It's fine now with the new battery and it's nice to have a spare as well! You can track the delivery from Vifocal to some extent on 17track although mine stayed...

It was the battery that was knackered, I noticed when I took it out the other day that it's suffered the expansion mentioned elsewhere in the thread (I think on this thread, I know I've read about it somewhere) The middle section feels distinctly "fat". Anyway, I now have a new battery(+ a...

I'm pretty sure now it must be a faulty battery. I can charge to 100% and it lasts fine if I only use the phone for calls and texts. When I do anything online, browsing, Facebook or use any app that updates online it now crashes withing 5-10 minutes. I just went from 98% to dying in less than 5...

I was hopeful I had solved my battery issue with a complete discharge calibration as advised on the previous page but it now appears not. After 3 hours from charging with the power only dropping to 99% I had along phone conversation of about 30 minutes and was pleased to see the level had only...

I'm now 36 hours into a total discharge with nothing turned on and it's showing I still have 68% left! Looks like I've stumbled on the answer to poor battery life problems, just turn off all functions and don't use it! I'm assuming this probably means I don't have a battery issue and it's...

No I know you didn't, I was following the instructions from here https://plus.google.com/117272631029461602671/posts/bXojCrL5oSG I will try again with a complete discharge and see if that works! Thanks

It didn't work, unless I misunderstood what you meant? I charged with phone off until charged, turned phone on for 30 minutes with everything removed and wifi location etc turned off and left on for 30 minutes. Then charged it again for 30 minutes whilst on. Did you mean I should let it...

Thanks soulfunkdjx, I will give that a try this weekend, hopefully that will sort it. It does feel like it's a software issue rather than battery failure. I will report back either way for the benefit of others!

Hi. Yes, I'm running on the October firmware, only had problems in the last couple of weeks though. I have ordered a new battery in case it's that but not confident that it is. I think I may have to root and clear the battery stats or something? Thanks for the suggestion though! ---------- Post...

Hi I'm one of the few people that have been generally happy with my BT2 but recently I am getting serious issues with the battery life. If I just use the phone for calls and texts it seems to last fine but as soon as I do anything online it loses battery rapidly until it gets down to around...
