no VoLTE support. This device doesn't work with carriers that require VoLTE (Voice-over-LTE), such as AT&T or T-Mobile. I know this, as I personally own a F8331 USA model.

One thing to correct. Snapdragon 820 is LTE cat 12(DL) 13(UL) rather than LTE cat 9 (which is 810).

the batteries are bad OR the voltage regulator is. if you leave it plugged in eventually it starts charging, but will drop dead suddenly even at 90%+. you can try replacing the battery if it makes financial sense in your area
