The battery in the Zenfone Selfie is nothing to write home about. If someone plays continuous music then my guess is about 6hrs of backup max. My phone drains about 10% every hour with minimum use even when on power saving mode, screen brightness on auto and apps denied permission to auto start up. My S3 gave much better backup when it was new. Now both the S3 (3 year old) and my Zenphone Selfie (2 days old) drain battery at almost the same rate. Also it gets a bit warm around the back camera when on wifi for about 15-20 mins. Don't know if that is a general issue or specific to me handset.

                Wiping partition cache will resolve any conflicts caused by residual cache from the earlier firmware version.Wiping partition cache will not delete your data. However be careful while doing this procedure and do not accidentally select other options that might delete your data. Do not wipe partition cache often.

                                Pathetic Combi of HTC desire eye and also a clear cut mock of the LG G3 and G4 including those rear keys and Laser Autofocus Cameras.. But the Battery wont stand and the phones dont perform as compared to Flagship devices thats y the less price and more features..NO RELIABILITY!
