Official ZenFone 5 Thread

[wackykid]

Hi all.. I made a pleasant discovery! Just want to check whether this mine is special case or not...

I am using a 3G sim card but I discovered that my phone most of the time connects to H or H+ which is a higher speed than 3G! Is this normal since this is dual SIM version and the speed is supposed to limit to 3G?

urm that is normal... H/H+ or HSDPA, HSPA+ are still considered as "3G" ... you don't usually distinguish them from 3G... so while the phone is 3G... it actually supports H/H+...

Ya I know zenfone support H even though is 3G phone... cos even now my connection is showing H+
But my iphone only go up to 3G unless I put 4G sim... for my 3G sim my iphone never reach H+ unless it's like a split second that I never noticed... ?

There's no separate H/H+ symbol in iOS. They only have o (for GPRS/2G), E (Edge), 3G, and 4G.

Oic.. well at least zenfone got more indication of speeds then instead of lumping into one ..

I use offline maps from Streetdirectory, but when I downloaded them in ZF5, instead of storing in the SDcard, it stores it all on the internal storage.
Is there a way to make it store in the SDcard ?
Same for Whatsapp etc - can these apps use SDcard to store stuff ?

 

[Rickosw]

can you download this app onto ZF5?
