Micromax Yu Yuphoria Discussion Thread

[ashs1]

Oops.. I mistook this thread for the yureka thread.

WTH ?! Im surprised at how so little battery is consumed on video playback(high bitrate 1080p x265 encoded videos, 4 mins~200MB ) 1 hour of playback hardly consumes 20% battery. My Z Ultra on the other hand drains almost twice as fast, though screen size isn't that much larger.

Exactly.. I can play full HD videos having a bit rate of 4mbps and the device will not give a single problem.. Download a hevc /h265 format video of even 700kbps-1mbps and the device goes berserk.. It activates the media server problem which causes heating and battery drain.. Most of the TV shows that I download are in this format..

I think mediaserver is a CM bug.I too face heavy CPU usage while playing videos in CM based custom rom(ressuraction remix).

I faced the media serverbug only once, tried playing an incomplete x264 file, MX Player froze, and mediaserver started running. Battery was draining rapidly.

Post a short review...

@All,

I am looking for a backup mobile as my Xperia Z1's sim slot just went kaput!!!

Currently, am biding my time with an Nokia X2-00 while my Z1 sits at the service centre for eternity!!!

I was hoping to buy this mobile in the next flash sale on the 11th but [MENTION=274911]abcxyz[/MENTION] 's modified review is making me have second thoughts...
Any suggestions and won't those problems be easily rectified with a software update???

Also, does the flash sale end in under 1 second or is it open for a little bit longer like 1 minute???

That review is only from my phone experience.. Even I'm waiting for another review to check if my phone is faulty

Regarding the flash sale.. It took 10-15 seconds in the first flash sale.. Don't know about the second sale.

If you are buying this mobile for temporary usage say up to 6 months that go for it.

Anyway I will be rooting this mobile today and will update my review again this Wednesday.

I too received the Yupheria yesterday. After about 9 days of ordering. They sure took their sweet time this time.
Will try to write a small review soon.

At last successfully rooted the Yu Yuphoria smartphone after much hassles and taking pain in the a$$. I had to factory reset my device 4 times,but eventually the Windows OS was the culprit( or the security software)...in fact till now Yuphoria is running/functioning good,without any issues,such as freezing,too much heating up( no games installed). I had downloaded many utility software apps. to my heart's content those that requires devices to be rooted.

Found a solution to mediaserver battery drain issue you need to root your phone then install xposed framework. Then google xposed media server optimizer.
Install it activate that module voila no more battery drain.
