android 5.1 naman next na is android 6.0 kailan kaya nila marerelease ito. na fix kaya nila lahat ng issues sa m5? tulad ng autoshutdown.
great thanks for the update, it seems the charging led light fix on the updated firmware. Before when i unplug the charger from the wall socket, the led light doesn’t disapper. But now its fix, thanks!
it didn’t fix the auto shutdown, still intermittent shutdown due to switching frequency between gsm/wcdma and lte. only solution is to used gsm or wcdma only. some issues are fix like the previous comment(s).
i notice that the google play store doesn’t quit / error like the previous version.
beautiful smartphone however, my concern is the phone’s condition. as i read about some issues of m5 dual. is it true? anyway, hold on to my budget before i purchase this and until everything is clear.
the patch seems working good update. i hope they can clear the autoshutdown issue on android 6.0
ang ganda pala ng itsura nya at sobrang linaw ng camera.
