Abinash, 06 Sep 2014Hi Tomazz,
I just want to know, is it dangerous to use phone during charging...It is not dangerous to use it, generally, however some precautions would be beneficial:
- the phone's CPU warms up when the phone is being used
- the battery warms up when being charged
- the screen warms up when being used
So if you put these 3 together, the phone will be warmer. This means that it is not a good idea to put it under the pillow or sleep on it, as it could overheat.
Therefore if you are using it, make sure you don't fall asleep with it in hand or on bed.
Another sidenote - phone charges slower when turned on, and when in use.

I have a difference in opinion about the power state getting discussed here.
In t... moreMy earlier response was oversimplified version to explain the differences between how ARM and x86 processors are handled by Android core, and where we expect to see improvements.
Obviously it's a lot more complicated than that, but it would make no sense getting into internal architecture differences between them on the high level post.

Not at all. But the battery could heat up. Be wise with your phone.

hafiz, 06 Sep 2014that's right. the standby processor at 800mhz. it will drain the battery.Gentelmen,
I have a difference in opinion about the power state getting discussed here.
In this processor we have power states C0 to C3 for various power states and P0(800Mz) to Pn(maximum being 1600Mzh) for the frequency state.
So wheneever none of the process in Android(irrespective of the processor architecture in which it is working) holding wake lock,it will put the processor in in the power down states and based on "deep sleepness" the processor will go to C3 or C2 or whichver application.In ARM world it's going to be like Runmode ,Standby mode etc
But I guess the difference lies in the fact the in the power down mode,as a SoC,how much areas/peripherals you can shut down?Say in Intel being C3 you may have capability shutdown only 2 peripherals and being ARMV7,in the standby mode,your architecture can shutdown 5 peripherals which will be giving you extra power saying.
Let me know your thoughts.

I am using this phone form 2 month
And not facing any internal problem.
But facing touch screen problem
I bought zenfone 5 form retailer in kolkata.
After using for 1 month my phone touch screen got small crack due to short.fall.
And after 1 month 10 days i am noticing scratches on my screen without any reason as i m using safely and let you know that i am not using any screen protector
But this should not happen as it has gorilla glass 3.
According to me it is not gorilla glass,or my.phone glass is like this which can gat crack and scratches
I am very upset with the glass quality.of my zenfone

This phone is great, almost a week usage and yes the battery is not that good but it last a day for me since I'm busy with school.
But I have some question guys do your Zenfone 5 can read and write Korean? And is it normal when my ZF5 is rooted already.. Mine is 1.13.40 can't do OTA eventhough it is T00J ver.
If you guys didn't face those problems then I'm out of my luck since I bought it with distributor warranty :/
Please help me to answer so I can ask help from the distributor.. thank you..

hi there, i've seen zenfone 5 and i'm very disappointed regarding its brightness levels and the speaker sound of it. i've also watched a video in youtube comparision of brightness levels of moto g and zenfone 5 and i got really shocked looking the brightness difference of these. moto g's brightness was 25 comparable to zenfone's 40. And at highest brightness zenfone will definitely go lost somewhere. so , is there any solution for this brightness of zenfone ? if so , please help me out. thanks
