Looks like they have optimized the memory as I asked for I have a lot more Ram after closing every thing, I used to have 4.50gb ram now after just updating, I close every thing and I now have

And I Re registered my fingerprints inline with the fingerprint scanner update and it does seem to be alot better , just need better lock screen notifications I.e bezel border colours and I'm good to go, off-topic but has anyone got a YouTube substitute that allows you too use your YouTube account but let you use a different player I.e MX PLAYER OR VLC PLAYER or even a later version of YouTube that allows you to set the playback resolution you've set and keep it at that value, because I always have to change it from the default 480p which is so annoying, plus.. On my vivo v9 in the third part display options YouTube used to be in there which stopped you from always having to stretch to fit screen, but on this phone and the funtouch version YouTube is not in there for some reason, I'd just like it to stay stretched to fit screen instead of having to do it for every God dam video Grrrrr, any ideas would be appreciated.

Can some one explain if the global and chinese version is follow the same content in the updates or is it simply different ? I mean... according the the numbering the global version is some versions behind compared to the chinese roms ? is this correct that the chinese version seem to get faster and more updates ? (this is usually case with most chinese phones that the global version does not get updates as fast.

 

[Number 8]

Got the update, too.

Battery life and SOT same?

 

[Abby 244]

They have also added a video editing option album.

I lost 9% in 4 hours over night. Rebooted the phone. Charged back up to 100%. Phone has been running better then before the update. Battery seems better for me. Try rebooting.

Not sure if this is a bug due to new update but when I get a voicemail notification and I click to check the voicemail I get a message displaying "tips call not sent, no valid number entered". Anyone else facing this issue?
