        1)3 hour charging is normal.
        2)Every phone storage works that way and 10 of 16GB it is normal, don't worry.
        3)Uninstall clean master as fast as you can, not only clean master but this type apps is bad for android, don't use it anymore, task killers and ram boosters are bad for android, stop killing your phone.
        4) For app crash factory reset your phone, it can help.

          As for the internal storage, The system apps and services use the rest of 16 GB. This is the case for all mobile phones. You can uninstall the not needed bloatware apps to increase the storage but without rooting, your options would be limited.

            Hey guys, i have this phone since Xmas, and this phone is very good, but two things are annoying:1. when i go to a new app(not at all apps), first time it crashes or i spend a lot of time to surf google play, it crashes and app shut downs.2. when you activitely use a phone, battery discharges after one day, but most i hate is that, when i charge it, it fully charges per 3 or more hours...And... Last thing- i cannot understand why i see in any program that the phone has only a little bit more storage space than 10gb, although it has 16gb storage space... When i use(for example) clean master, it shows that android os uses 5gb and i cant understand, where are other 6gb...

I bought sony and had to charge it like 3 or 4 times a day without doing anyrhing at all. Took it to the service they didnt find anything wrong woth my phone so the worker told me " i have this really dumb idea that worked for me when i had this problem with my lg and might work for u as well". He said that i needed to replace my SIM. And it worked. Now battery lasting for 2 full days when using it for inet and texting. Try it. :))
                      Hope i helped.
