I would recommend to directly update from your phone, about update. it only took a few minutes to install update. (no data loss, no apps, no contacts, everything else stays the same).

SuperKips, 06 Oct 2016Hey Guys, I want to buy new phone. Which is better between Samsung A5 (2016) and Lenovo Vibe P... moreHi SuperKips, as a happy owner of A5(2016), let me compare it this way.
If you want high specs (RAM, ROM, CPU and everything) and don't care too much for looks or quality, go for lenovo, and they say P1 has one of the very fast fingerprint scanner (can't comment on that).
I am not saying that A5(2016) is very high quality, but it sure looks premium, the rich premium features, the occasional update patches (mine got 6.0 now, which introduces FP and screen off conflict issue), etc.
Here is the downside of A5,
- low RAM and ROM (2GB, 16GB), so don't expect to be superfast and very much gaming friendly
- FP scanner, slow and not very accurate from time to time (it must be because of my finger tip position when I try to unlock, but with P1 - having FP scanner at the back and largness makes it easier to put the whole finger tip on it and easier to be read)
- Camera not very great in low light (marvelous in sunlight though) and low/no image stabilization (pic gets blurred when hand shakes, especially selfie)
That is pretty much everything I can say about the downfall now.
Good luck!

Why this phone lags in marshmallow ? Games was good in 5.0.1 but when i upgraded it to 6.0.1 i cant even play pokemon go, menus go to 7fps or something like that, and low games like geometry dash starts lags too, no sense at all, and if i go back to menus and return to game , stay normal for like 10 secs and starting lag again. Anyone know how to fix it ?

I have to say that spec wise it might not be the best ,and there probably are better mid rangers out there and dropping down from an s6 which I broke the screen I actually prefer this ,yeah it's not as quick ,pictures aren't as vibrant but living with it day in day out it does everything I need and it hasn't died by 3pm ,great battery ,lovely screen ,good for music to ,its also the first Samsung I've had that supports my Sony MDR-NC31E Digital Noise Cancelling headphones that I got from when I had z2

samsung mobile compa, 06 Oct 2016friends ...i have samsung galaxy A5 2016 .....but still i didn't find out solution of these po... more1: i'm not sure i undertood what u meant but if it's call block u can go in the call button, settings, more settings and show ID/restricted calls
2: it doesn't have a sepparate app lock (u can download app lock or other from play store for this)
3: settings, screen block & security, security block settings, automatic lock (u can set the seconds after the screen goes off untill it's locked)
regarding the app block, i ahven't found an app that uses fingerprint as a lock (only numbers or letters) but feel free to search the web, i'm pretty sure there should be one
hope i helped :D

Devil, 05 Oct 2016hey guys.. my cel phone has model number SM-A510FD but there is no such model number on sammob... morebased on your model number, i assume you are living somewhere in southeast asia. I have the same model number and already received official android 6 marshmallow from samsung 2 days ago. try check your settings>software update for the latest version.

El.Zinjo, 05 Oct 2016Who is better A5 2016 or j7 2016 ???well they have similar specs but most relevants might be:
J7 2016 is bigger with less rsolution, no fingerprint, no fast charging but has a bigger battery, the chipset is slightly better and CPU seems kinda equal (4x1.6 GHz Cortex-A53 & 4x1.0 GHz Cortex-A53 vs 4x1.2 GHz Cortex-A53 & 4x1.5 GHz Cortex-A53)
now personally, i've had the A3 before so i'm kinda fan of the A series and i'm loving the A5 2016 so call me a little bias in that matter
hope i help enough :)
