That's mad, the P8000 isn't even out yet and they have announced a new handset

I love the Engrish on the site. That phone looks a beast on paper, I might try and sell my P8000 on (once I get it) and get one of them.

Ha, it would have amazed me if apple had allowed anything to communicate with their precious facetime. I'm even surprised that they allow installation of Skype. Do you have a feeling which is the better tango or Viber?

Id guess skype was to try gain market share with business users

I have cancelled my P8000 order pending the release of this new one!

[Clubber Lang]

I ordered my P8000 from CoolIcool

They haven't taken payment but I can see the order on their website.

I can't work out how to cancel it.

Thinking of going for this newer phone once it is released

They are making Apple look slow at releasing new handsets.

OK this is about the P7000. I have to say that when it has a lot of apps open in the background it can slow down. Scrolling isn't instant, I did wonder what was going on at first. I tend to leave apps open, generally. The majority of apps are graphical such as news or other things to read. I thought it should be posted up here that this happens. First android phone, no added micro SD card. The only reference for multitasking is the iPhones I have owned, can't remember there being an issue. There is at least a one button solution for ending all multitasked items on the android phone.

Is there a option in the battery menu for turning minimizing the CPU use and saving battery life?

I don't know mate I have it set on intelligent power saving. The battery life really is superb. When I can figure out how to do a screen grab I'll post a grab up showing how the remaining battery life is displayed.

[Bilbo_baggin]

Screen-grab is usually power button and volume down button simultaneously.

Bilbo.

OK great stuff, thanks. Here's a screen grab of the battery useage since the last charge. I find this to be reliable.

Any other things I can screen grab that are of interest?

[piggzy]

There are some excellent apps that save a lot of battery life by auto closing obvious stuff that doesn't need to stay open e.t.c and they adjust settings too

And behold the P9000 - This will obviously never end..

They are nuts, new phone every 2 months!

[Squizza]

You can see now why they don't support OS updates (major ones). It is not worth it! Sell the phone on and buy the next model.. The P8000 is still a few days from actual release, you would have thought they would wait a week or so.

Get rhosoft ram expander mines up to 6gb ram lol no need to update! Just make sure you have a class ten SD card ;-)

also don't forget most paid android apps can be got for free!

When it comes to ROMS there are loads of custom ROMS for elephones. CyanogenMod have variations for them

Yep I'm running a Vibe rom which is based on a Lenovo Vibe, give the option on Lollipop to move apps to SD card on a P6000
