1)Phone heatsup during fast charging from day 1.

Answer - tell me one phone from 2015/2016 that has no overheat from fast charging? Thats absolutley normal, u want 80% battery in 40-50 mins. with no overheat? Thats normal, it cools down from like 5 minutes after that. Dont use fast charger if u dont want to overheat.

2)Phone heatsup while browsing Internet.(this issue starts after 2 months.

If ur using 4G its normal, also normal under heavy load or downloading. Every phone does like that.
3) net browsing is not smooth. It jumps to different pages when you try to touch screen in order to scroll the page up or down.

3)No notification led. You can't tell if your phone is charging or not. You can't see if you have missed calls or messages without turning the display on.

Of course u can tell is it charging or not. If u have put the cabl ein to the plug, then it is charging.

4) speaker volume is low. You can't hear phone rining if it is in your room and u are just sitting outside room.

It's not that low, check ur setting. And the vibration is great.

This phone overheats, i have noticed too, but friends, every single phone is heating frm games, internet (esspeicialy network from 3G/4G) and fast charge, every phone is like that!
This phone has back and front glass and cools in 5 minutes after charge, we have all go to school and know how to glass works with heats and cool. Sorry for my bad english.

The phone is great. I recommened it, best premium midrange ever. And when A5 2017 pop out, this will become even cheaper. Every single game works perfect in Full HD, camera and display are great, sound is great, battery rocks.

10/10 points.

                          AnonD-549881, 17 Sep 2016But how.....?Enable developers option by continuously pressing build number and then go to developers option and scroll down to force gpu rendering and enable it.

                          For me all the animations and graphics are more neat as it was in lollipop and the games are also playable now.
