hi guys,

recently I had to send my phone back to the repair centre 2nd time.
issues:
- very often gps does not get fixed and I need to restart the phone.
- the biggest problem is a Wlan drops. sometimes it is ok for few days but than it starts to drop the wifi and I need to switch it off and on to get it back. It does not matter where I am, I have tried at home, at workplace, at my friends… It started 2-3 weeks ago.
- I have tried to reset everything to factory setting and I even tried to install the newest firmware b111 a few times…

so this time I decided to buy a cheap android meanwhile I am waiting for my phone.

Moto g 4.4 kitkat...16000 antutu (15000 p6)
the gps is so quick. I don't have to wait even 3 sec to get the position. It sees about 20 satellites and my p6 never saw more then about 12...
the gmap position doesn't jumping while I'm traveling...

I am just wondering that are u guys satisfied with the p6 gps?

And of course it hasn't dropped the WiFi in the last 5days...

What do you think? I have a unique faulty item which has not been repaired correctly at first time in the service centre or basically the p6 is not as good as a 100 pounds moto g Motorola...

Agreed, it all depends on what you need. I just take photos and Whatsapp with mine, so it's really great for my use, I could have gotten an S4 but I really liked this design. - I've never used the GPS lol.

Anyhow, for what do you use your device? Maybe I can suggest some handsets.

thx, that is very kind.

you know, to be honest I was falling in love when I saw the phone in a O2 shop and on the same day I bought it without any hesitating.
(I thought I can trust the huawei brand...)
I live in London and whenever I travel I always use gmap with public transport because it shows where I am and how to get there where I want to go.
that is why I need a reliable and quick gps.

and the wifi drops and the front camera issue is just unacceptable...
almost from the beginning I had front camera issue (gallery has stopped error) but the wifi used to be good...

Probably I will buy a moto g as well if the service centre cannot fix these issues with my p6 at 2nd time (they have already tried but the problems still exist)

I used the b132 in the last few weeks before I had enough and sent the phone back.
It does not matter which firmware I use the problems are the same... :(

Dont tell me you havent tried Emui2.0 +Kitkat yet :rolleyes:

But yea with your front camera not working, your device seem to be screwed up and you should get a replacement.

I have not tried the KitKat yet because I did not want to brick it.

Yes, they should offer a replacement but will they?
What can I do if they are gonna write the same as last time? ' problems have been found and a full repair provided' but I will have the same problems?
I asked them what the full repair means: 'they changed something in the phone'

:banghead:

That's bad for you. But KK can't brick your phone only Chinese JB can do that.

The repair centre told me they need to change my phone's motherboard...
Hopefully I'll enjoy the real p6! :)

    B506 is the kitkat emui 2.0, I still prefer OMNI 4.4.2.
    If Pacman 4.4.2 comes out I would prefer it over OMNI.
