I have the normal UAG cover for R399 and I love it, I find the flip/wallet covers annoying.

Me too. That's why I'll probably just save it for the wife. She loves her flip schit on her current S5.

Yea the normal one would be fine as the actual UAG cover is marvelous, but folio thing is not working.

I need the flip thing because what use is the back cover if the phone fall on it's face?

The normal cover has a raised lip on the front, so unless it falls on something pointy like a rock, in which case the folio wouldn't save you anyway, you don't have to worry about a drop with the raised lip.

The folio of UAG which is like a 5mm thich thing plus the tempered class cover thing will protect it more than a raised lip :)
 
Does anyone know why the App drawer does not have the ABC sorting option on Vodacom S6, as well as the missing spO2 option in S health, I have read on other forums that other people have it available from other countries ie Sweden.

Perhaps Vodacom have disabled/crippled certain features for some reason.

They don't have it. My telkom one doesn't have it.

Just install a different launcher, problem solved. I use Nova Launcher. Other favourite is Action Launcher 3.
 
Strange that your battery is still running down so fast.
This is mine, after updating as suggested by Faniedry, and confirmed by Lew.Skannen.

Not strange at all, look at his screen usage, compared to yours.

Screen is the single highest battery user in any phone.
 
I think if it last 12 - 13 hours it is sufficient. By then you should be back from work and give the phone a "quick charge" which will last until you go to bed

I am not a heavy user, and in the time frame I made 8-9 phone calls, spent about 30 minutes downloading apps, and just generally playing with the phone.

WiFi, Bluetooth, Mobile Data and Location are on permanently, and the screen is set to Auto, with the bar on full.

Not bad for a new phone, and comparable with my Note 3 that was taken in an affirmative shopping incident last week.
 
From my own experience with trying various options concerning the battery life of my S6, the biggest gain was when I switched the Network mode from LTE to WCDMA, it more than doubled my battery life from 12 hours to over 24 hours, using the phone for calls, exchange mail, s-health and vaiours other light activities.

My LTE signal at home and at work is only 1 bar most of the time so it does not help much trying to use LTE on Vodacom it mostly switches to Edge all the time causing frustration so the switch to WCDMA made my data throughput a lot more stable and it sticks to H+ all the time now.
