Not sure if this is just how the phone is or if mine's defective. If anyone isn't having the following issues PLEASE reply so I can call up Sony and hopefully get a new one if this isn't the norm.
-Phone gets pretty hot, I know the phone's back is metal but it's hot enough to worry about imo. Happens when I've got a large file downloading or playing games like Modern Combat 3. Just to note I kill all background tasks quite often and especially before playing a game.
-Touch screen is buggy and requires a hard reset to fix. After MC3 crashing twice on me my screen became nearly unresponsive and if it did register anything it'd bug out.
-When listening to music it sorta drops out every once in a while, equivalent to a CD skipping? Idk how else to really put it.
Thanks in advance!
Well over heating is common in android phones. Mines reach 49 degrees Celsius while playing minecraft. But for the other issues, they seem like memory issues

Memory as in CPU usage than this phone needs to be rooted badly, memory as in free space shouldn't be an issue, I've got gigs of space on both the internal and external SD cards.

Is 200 M really that bad? I've never seen it go below that. And I had an Aria that ran down to like 75 M sometimes and it didn't affect it that badly

shouldn't be the cpu. my x10 is always below 30mb XD
btw, don't use any task killers. they won't help but only mess up the way your phone works.
however, you can try using an app called "system panel." set up the monitor function and see which app is doing the wrong thing

I definitely have a defective Ion then. I just repaired the phone through the SUS so I'll have to see how that works out.

What makes you say that? Just curious 'cause the task killer I have always used has helped all my phones so far. My (extremely low spec btw) HTC Aria only worked so well because of it.

So I'm running a custom kernel with lowered voltages... even over wifi this thing runs hot. After about 15 minutes The screen emulates heat don't even have to touch it to feel it. Even underclocked its still running warm. Coming from a single core you would think having another core would reduce some heat but my epic never got this hot at all. So how hot does your nexus run? If I would guestamate I would say around 100° or so. The brightness isn't that high however my rgb values are pretty high at least the blue value is. I like a cool screen temp.

go back to stock kernel, you can undervolt/underclock the stock one too!
I run around 119°F at the hottest I've seen, regularly. So you're fine.

Wifi on, surfing webpages on Chrome Beta for maybe 15 to 20 minutes, then the casing gets pretty hot.
I'm sure it's high 40+ degrees Celsius or maybe 50+
Sorry for not including details
All units are in degree Celsius.
Idles at 32
Normal use not sure, but should be around 30+ range
It only runs that hot when really pushing the phone hard for me.
Don't forget ambient temperature makes a big difference also. And case trapping heat.
...of the people, by the people, for the people...
So I downloaded b35 of aokp. Wiped data... and dalvik. Formatted the system and now its cool as ice. I'm on the charger running at 1.2 and its not getting warm. Before I was @ 900mhz and it was getting really warm... I'm amazed at what corrupt data will do.

1. i've dropped my phone plenty of times with 'barely there' cases, and it works fine
2. yes it's normal
3. you can with a certain app, but I'm not sure what it's called Some apps however wont have widgets working if you use that app though. i think it's called link2sd or something
Thx for that info bro...

1 - If you bought phone to drop it, you have really gotten something wrong.
3 - No, that's all you got. Adding it is close to impossible, due to high-tech electricity parts and stuff.
If you really want more internal memory you could partition your sd card and make it as internal memory...
How do i do that?

1 - It will still work... But Case is made of light plastic and will easily suffer cosmetic scratches and cracks.
2 - Yes... Any Smartphone Runs low on battery fast when playing HD games.
3 - Nope.
I'vr dropped it alot and it still works fine, I might have damaged the GPU or something like that, because my phone is laggy, but that's probably just software problems.
Camera is also worse, which is sad, and I don't think it's software fault.
My screen saver (the original from Sony) is very scratched but the screen is perfectly fine, no scratches.
Many phones get hot when running heavy games or tasks and when charging, and games usually drain battery faster.
To increase internal storage you could remove unnecessary system files, but be careful with that, or you could partition your SD-card (class 8/10 SD for less lag)
use my mod from dev section to increase internal memory
on stock roms it works awesome an everything works even widgets
dropping is no problem
heating does not happen when on stock
on custom roms it heats much

Hi to all Sony xperia users. I was playing with my wife's micromax canvas hd phone and surprised to see its total ram exactly about 1 gb with the same screen resolution as of ours xperia s whereas in xperia s it's very low around 700 mb. Against claimed 1gb by Sony. Anyone have a explanation or their views about this?
Screen shots below.
Sony xperia s

Amount of free ram depends on the chipset the device uses.
None of Micromax devices use snapdragon chipsets.
While our Xperia S uses snapdragon s3 chipset and it requires that 300 MB reserved for GPU.
So you get around 700 MB for apps.
Newer chipset has reduced memory requirement for GPU like the one in Xperia Z which requires less than 200 MB.
One more example,
My laptop has 4 GB of RAM but out of that 1 GB is reserved for system and i only get 3GB Ram as usable memory.
~300mb of ram are used by system or something like that
the more the system ram,less the phone lags.check samsung phones(eg galaxy s2,it has same 1gb but 900 mb free).lags like hell.so dont complaint.all apps work fine,no problem multitasking and its fluid

Hi. I bought the 551 version with 2gb ram and 16gb memory a few days ago. So far the experience has been good. I'm just having problems running the game I regularly play, Crusaders Quest. It slows down to a crawl at times specially if I don't reboot my phone. I'm thinking it's a ram problem. Maybe I should get the 4gb ram one? Or it won't make a difference? Or is it the limitations of the GPU? Should I just switch to the nexus 5 instead?
Appreciate if you guys would chime in before I decide to sell the phone over the weekend. Thanks.

should be related to memory leak in android 5.0.1.. 2gb ram was never enough if memory leak is not fixed..4gb version still can manage and handle the leak, no solution so far unless you root it and install xposed fix memory leak module which also helped me in my case..other than that, just wait till asus push higher version of android such as 5.1 that was said to have better memory management..

Could be throttling due to temps. Its highly unlikely this game is slowing down due to RAM/GPU/CPU unless the device is throttling. What's your ambient temperature there?

It's around 40 degrees Celsius here. So you really think it's not a ram problem? When I run the game I can't even multi task. If I leave the app when I go back to it, it relaunches.

Yea. That's hot, man. Your phone is likely throttling.
The issue with it closing when multitasking is a Asus kernel setting issue. Check your free RAM. I don't believe its a 5.0 leak issue. The leak manifests itself differently than this.
The 4gb version will help with apps closing, but not with the throttling. The Zenfone 2 is beyond powerful enough to run this game.
40°C is still cool enough..i think i remember that i read somewhere before, zenfone kernel started to throttle cpu when it reach 55°c, correct me if im wrong..but unlike my samsung S3, when using lollipop custom rom the temperature usually stays on 40-47°C while using the phone, so phone like this powerful zf2 should not have any problem even on 40°C..but just my two cent yet, anything can be a problem on this phone, unless they update in to newer lollipop and unlock BL so developer may help to improve the kernel and rom level of zf2..

its the problem of low free ram only,dont worry.I guess after updating to latest 5.1 x64bit lollipop...it wont have ram issues hopefully,and this prob only in 2gb,4gb can easily kill anyother phone interms of multitasking

Yes, you'll have far fewer RAM issues with 4gb. I thought you were having other issues, according to your OP.

yes, can't stand that 8bit graphic, didn't even want to get into the actual battle because of the graphic...the phone itself is fine.
I do find this phone heats up more than others I've used....would like to find a custom back, something that would allow greater airflow for gaming. If you play a heavy game, just pop the case off and let the extra airflow through.
Hi All, I was playing contest of champion from kabam, my problem is that when I just launch the game it look really nice in full HD graphic, and after 2 games when the heat goes up, no more HD , and when play after about 1/2 hour the graphic start choppy or even stuck in some point. anyone having the same problem ? Thanks
This might be because zf2 has 64-bit processor running with 32-bit lollipop......32-bit won't handle 64-bit efficiently
Sent from my ASUS_Z00AD using XDA Free mobile app
According to anandtech's review, the Zenfone 2 is not affected by throttling issues. Maybe the game you want to play is not x86 friendly and the slowdowns are because of binary translation (ARM emulation).

it's not 32bit lollipop, CPU Z clearly says the kernel is 64 bit. plus, how can a 32bit OS manage 4 gb of RAM?

It could.
That said yes, it's a 64b version. Even about phone will show x86_64.
40C Yep, ambient temp and that's HOT -> phone starts OUT AT 40C, so pretty much ANY stress on it's going to hit thermal throttling PDQ.
I tried many tweaks found in the forum to reduce lag, lower heat but my G4 still keeps crashing while playing 3D games. Is it hardware problem, lollipop 5.1 problem or I got a defect phone? Am I the only one experience this?

Crash happens on playing for 5 to 10 mins, becoz cpu or gpu get too hot? I'm not sure...
@kelvinick, Not for me. It's always crashes right away.
On loading a game I noticed the phone immediately starts logging something having to do with the "thermal engine", changes the "wlchg_monitor" alarm to 42c, and the "LCD_management" alarm to 44c.

I tried many tweaks found in the forum to reduce lag, lower heat but my G4 still keeps crashing while playing 3D games. Is it hardware problem, lollipop 5.1 problem or I got a defect phone? Am I the only one experience this?

Do you have a case on the phone? I've had devices in the past that would overheat with heavy use in thick cases.

Hmm well no problems here. If it's happening in more than one game I'd lean towards a defective phone.
First I'd try a factory reset before returning the phone.
Asphalt Overdrive works great here..
