4G signal really bad, GPS inaccurate & weak, constant loss track.

Camera really bad in low light.

I no longer get more than 24 hours usage after full charge. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling some apps I was suspecting were the cause, restarting the phone but it's just different after. Even the equalizer settings always reset itself when I close the Google Music app

      Anybody else finding that the battery life is worse after the March update? Really like this phone otherwise. It's not the fastest but it handles everything fine. The screen isn't great but it is sharp.

        I don't know if it's just me or not, but After the update i think the fingerprint become slower, before, when I use it, the phone will instantly unlocked but now i have to wait for 3 seconds or so. Also, the screen brightness is still too dark.

          Mak, 14 Apr 2019Is anyone else having random vibration in there phone. BTW... morenope, nothing like that. had the phone 1.5yrs. running Pie no issues, the only thing that happened maybe 3 times is the micro sd card I use for pictures/video came unmounted by itself then it remounted instantly, and only when I unlocked the phone, but it hasn't affected the phone in any way.
          In fact, I suspected the sim card tray is a bit loose, because when I set the phone down on a table in a quiet room, I can hear a very light sounding metallic rattle that a sim card tray would make if it were loose. I haven't opened the phone since it was new so I won't bother now.

          Pie has been great, I was hesitant at first but it came in with the March or Feb. security update so I couldn't avoid it anymore.
          Battery is ok with moderate use, but will last many days with data/wifi off and limited use.
          This is the global version running in Canada on public mobile.

                  Each update brings more problems, worst Android One phone i ever use.

                    I have had this phone since September 2018 and I think that for the money, it's absolutely brilliant - the GPS accuracy seems as good as any other cheap phone I've had (if not slightly better) and I've not had any issues with mine!

                          Rajinders, 30 Mar 2019Erroneously mentioned as 386.1 instead of correct 348.1 MB.Those who didn't get February update get 348MB March update, while those who already installed February patch get 303MB update.

                          GPS still kind of slow though slightly better than last update, 4G signal slight improved.

                            Erroneously mentioned as 386.1 instead of correct 348.1 MB.

                              Today got 386.1 Mb 5th March' 2019 update .

                                        Which models of protective glass (that still sell) will fit this model? It's been a while since A1 has been released and I can't find a protective glass for it. Case, too.
