Hi,
I am currently in Dubai with a Galaxy Grand Duos purchased in India. I am trying to use the phone in Office. Usually it just connects fine but some-days, it wont even see the AP. I am guessing this is because the Channel that the AP is ON. One of my friend is using S3 and has no issues. One other friend is using Note 2 and he is also facing the same issue. I am guessing, this is a Chipset issue since AFAIK, Grand supports connecting to 5180 MHz and similar Network. Others with iPhone and Lumia do not face this issue.
Any way around it? I do not have access to AP since this is Office Network. Attached Screenshot is using 'inssider' from Windows 7.
Try to update to 4.2.2. It might solve the drop network issue.

Which one would you suggest? I see two or three currently but I heavily use it for Office Work so stability is the key. Also, I do need full support for 2 SIMs. Please suggest.

I use the Russian stock 4.2.2.. My benchmark score jumped from 7,000+ on 4.1.2 to more than 10,000 on it. Dual sim is important to me so I don't use the likes of AOSP,MIUI, CM, Pacman,etc all of which have no dual sim support. I am in Muscat, Oman BTW and I use the University wifi.

I have used LG Optimus G Pro previously, the G PRO is a beast in Major areas except Camera and Sound. I get few problems when using HTC 820.
1) The Software does lag some times and the result is opening multiple apps or tabs at a time.
2) The Typing is not as smooth as LG G PRo, what it lack is the speed. The OSK doesn't fetch the user key presses as fast as other phones.
3) IMO i do not like the UI and somewhat it lacks the feel good factor, I need to use different GUI apps to make it better like GO or Aviate.
Will update if i face any problems, I too got this phone a week ago.
Thanks

I badly wanna buy this phone asap but every time I check out some reviews over the internet across various sites, a lot of people have complained about rapid auto shutdowns and volte issues. Although, there are some who have been using this phone since more than 6 months and everything worked fine for them.
Is there any such issues on this phone like these people have mentioned? Cause both would be horrible for me. Shutdowns can be frustrating and if volte doesn't works properly, then Jio would be useless and I rely on it a lot as its my primary carrier!
Please let me know about the known issues of this phone as it would really help me to boost my confidence to buy it. And I literally cant wait to get my hands on it. Using something with a SD 820 would be like a dream come true!
Your opinions would be much appreciated.
Thank you!

So, according to you, the stock rom has issues and custom ones dont is it? I also wanted to ask you something. I heard from some people that we can still get the warranty for Z2 Plus even after flashing custom roms. Is it? And does these custom roms support volte? I need that the most.
What is your final opinion regarding this phone buddy? Is it worth buying?
About the warranty I don't know.
Volte works in my area
Zui OS is still under development
The fone is great for this money you can't get better one. The only thing for my is the glass back.... It's really slipperie... So you Ned to be carefull with the falls

Facing two very annoying issues.
1. The UI is pretty bad. It needs a custom ROM but that will void warranty so think about that.
2. When charging the touch goes bonkers. A slight touch would react very differently like the phone is broken.
I had VOLTE problem once, it left VOLTE band and didn't want to go back. Then after some changes in the APN didn't happen again.

Are there any custom ROM which is supporting VoLTE? - the ZUI is not for me, its crap and slow.

Every Indian ROM should, I don't intend to unlock the bootloader until the warranty expires. I have a hunch that it will need to see the service center quite a few times. First and last LENOVO phone I would ever spent. Though having a Lenovo laptop I knew about Lenovo quality but couldn't resist the discount now the return window is closed too, regrets.

I don't know who told you that?
I had a lot of android phones since original Samsung Galaxy, LG, Sony, HTC, Amazon phone, Nexus 4-5...
So I find ZUI (China version 2.5.334 ST) snappy and one of the most stable ROMs I ever used...
About the issues, since there is no top developers involved in ROM development for ZUK 2 it seems to me that after unlocking bootloader and messing with various versions of ROMs even flashing India ROM on China based ZUK can cause some serious issues...
It is your call whether to buy or not...only thing I don't like is mediocre brightness of the display...
ZUI is the worst ROM I have ever seen. Period.

Yep,, I bought one from giztop. No problems at all but, I'm on ee. Not sure what network ur on but the 128gb version doesn't have band 20, so if ur maybe o2, that could be an issue.. No problems at all with the phone, loving it. Had WW Rom installed, but still needed to change fingerprint to WW to be able to update

Yes, there is red tint, but it doesn't bother me so much now. It did at first.
With giztop you choose for them to install WW Rom, but you still need to change fingerprint to WW to update to latest...

Don't have that phone to compare to, so can't comment bud.
I'm not really fussy about pics, as I just need it for work pics. I'm seeing mixed reports tho regarding images.

I have both 7 pro and rog2 (tencent, ww rom).
Oneplus 7 pro pros :
- better screen quality, the colors are more vibrant, but lower max brightness than ROG2.
- software is better, updates in a timely manner, it's on Android10 already and in general they seem to offer much better support than Asus (remember, ROG1 is still on Android8 with no plans for any updates)
- smaller, lighter
- telephoto camera, better overall photo quality in my opinion
ROG2 pros:
- 120Hz screen offers a super smooth experience
- THAT battery
- auto brightness works
- 3.5mm headphone jack with good audio quality, also pretty good amplification
- flat screen
- notification led
- stereo speakers done right
- ultra wide lens is wider than on 7 pro (or any phone I know) at 11mm, although the quality is so-so.
Hope this helps...

I choose rog 2 but mostly out of curiosity. If you really care about software updates, custom roms and stuff, 7 pro is a much better choice.

cam any better with gcam ?

Sure it can, but gcam cannot substitute OIS that rog2 lacks on both lens for example. Saying that, I admit although I installed and took a couple of photos with gcam, I'm still far from having any conclusion.
Again, the 7 pro is not a camera phone marvel, but I find it to be a little better/flexible than the rog2 in the camera department (having OIS and telephoto lens also helps). Also, OnePlus made some real steps in making the camera better via software updates since 7 pro launched. Asus on the other hand, is not known for being eager to fix things or keeping the phone up-to-date in the software department and that's what worries me most regarding rog2.
I've just got a Tencent version delivered now in the UK for me, I'm on virgin mobile (virtual network on EE) and I cannot get 4G signal, only HSPA+. My Oneplus5 gets 4G+ here and about 45mbit speeds.
My Asus ROG2 came already with WW firmware, but I'm not sure if it is just the band 20 missing that is the issue. I was expecting at least a tiny bit of 4G, but so far I've got no 4G signal at all.

I'm not sure if my phone was "warming up" but it managed to get 4G a bit later even though it was on my desk exactly at the same position when it was on HSPA for a while. I'm getting 4G+ at speed test here that was around 30-40mbits on my oneplus 5 went to 60mbit on the asus rog 2.
I'll take it out tomorrow on the road to see how it goes
I believe this 4g reception issue is only valid with the 128GB version right? 512GB version with 12GB ram should have all the 4G bands in the UK?

Yes, I believe the that one has all bands
the only band missing in the UK is band 20, 800-900mhz ish.
Not sure if the 12gb chinese version has the band 20, it is still for chinese market I guess.
Hi guys,
Im running out of ideas for my signal issue.
So the situation is as follows:
I have an OP3 and just got hands on an OP3T. Because my old OP3 was gathering dust behind the camera lens and the mic didnt work from time to time, I wanted to switch to the OP3T.
I rooted it, just like my OP3, and flashed CrDroid 7.x on it, including gapps and so on. So far so good.
Everything was working fine, but then I started to notice, that my mobile network signal was sometimes really bad. Even in places I had good reception with the OP3 (LTE right away), the OP3T was struggeling to keep up the Edge network signal and internet was really slow.
I already flashed the 9.0.6 fw, tried to reset the APNs, flashed different ROMs, Android10 or Android11...nothing seems to do the trick.
Have you got any more suggestions, how to fix this? I also compared all mobile network settings between the devices, the setup is the same.
But when Im at work, the OP3 receives LTE, but the OP3T doesnt....
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
EDIT1: I live in germany and use Vodafone btw....

What version of op3T did you buy? A3000, A3010 or A3003? Maybe it has to do with the radio being your opT3 the Chinese or American model.
