Try to replace it with the latest one which has a smaller contact area.
This should solve the issue.
Mine is done.
Am happy with the phone now.
No more broken calls.

This is best budget phone ever.. with the exception of LTE and NFC. other than that.. it is cheap and beautiful.. major issue that can be fixed easily are facebook and gps problem. the fix is just do the manual update (not OTA update). judt download the correct update from ASUS, unzip and put the file on internal sd card and then update..

the battery life of zf5 is less than moderate, opera mini around 4-5 hours, mx player around 2-4 hours(depend on 480p or 720p). average use during outing(fb and opera mini) from 12pm till 7pm left 30-40%. night time idle took 10%. all the figure with 3g connection. and using wifi, the life is longer than 3g.

gadgetmaddnez, 07 Jul 2014How about huawei honor 3c? But i'm not sure it is a good phone either, the seller at lowyat di... moreHonor 3c is a very good phone. Its compatibility with apps and memory configuration is better than ZF5 as a fact. Nonetheless, built qualities of ZF5 is better than 3C, and the design/look of ZF5 -which's totally subjective -is better.

The battery runs out really fast and take long time to recharge. ... morePlease update your firmware to the latest firmware correctly, then, uninstall/disable unuse apps that you do not use. ZF5 tends to pack a list of apps that not everyone are fond of. BY doing so should solves most of ur issues.
