    So i got several problems.The firts one is that the checkbox for automatic brightness cannot be unchecked it's just locked and the screen is too bright and takes a lot of my battery life.Secondly i noticed my alarm was very quiet so i set it and just looked at the sound of the alarm in the settings.When the alarm started playing the sound of the alarm automaticaly went to the lowest possible without me doing anything i just don't know how to fix that either.And finnaly the Sleep option is set ot 30 seconds after inactivity and that cannot be changed either it's locked.I just can't find any solutions to these problems if someone reads this please reply if you know how to fix any of this.Thanks.

            The new firmware(NOT OS UPDATE) is out. NOT seeing any difference!?
            For those with issues with the sound volume I recommend Smart Volume control +(plus) - THE PAID VERSION. It solves the problem with the low alarm sound and others like that

              The phone is great but I've got a major issue with mine. THE ALARM IS VERY VERY QUIET. In setting-sounds all bars are set to maximum, the same is in alarm clock menu. At start its only vibrating after 30 secs you can nearly hear the sound and that is it. The increasing sound option is switched off. Someone whith the same problem? I'm from Bulgaria with the single sim version if that would make a difference

                                  I have a problem with the Idol2. Why therw is not gallery shortcut at the camera app so i can see photos directly through the same app, because exiting the existent camera app and then gallery app really annoys me.

                                    This phone is amazing and has NOTHING to envy out of any s4, s5. I have never seen it lag or stutter! Is smooth and the keyboard is great and the phone is gorgeous. It is a good quality dupe for the s4, i think. The camera is good for daylight but is not nice enough for night photos. Use the flash to fix that. Also you can download "better camera" app for flawless night shots with no flash:) i have many apps in background and it opens them in a second and right where i left them. This phone is so good ♥ i hope they roll out kitkat for it soon. Mine is still in 4.2 but it works great! Battery life is awesome and i'm heavy user. Perfect companion,works like a high end phone.
