Reseting won't change anything

The TouchPad ish will stop for a while till u change yr touchpad
This phone is very sensitive to water
As for the restarting, u might need to change ur battery or flash the device

Wow okay
But the touchpad is working actually; it just that the phone goes ON and OFF by itself.
So how can I flash the phone please? And how much is the battery + touchpad + tempered glass?

If u ain't a careful user, I'll advice u go for m8 instead of m8 pro

It's strangely cheaper and stronger

It's a good phone but:
1. Heats up a lot
2. Too heavy
3.Has a poor flashlight, that makes any picture at night blurry.
4. No flash for selfies.

But I must say that I am still enjoying the phone. Almost 1 month since I got it from Jumia.

The most common flashing method is with 'sp tool' . You can search on the internet on how to use it. You will need the leagoo rom file to flash.

You may try the hard reset before flashing, if it will solve your problem.

A lot of people have said that on heavy usage, it lasts for between 6-7 hours
I can't say if it is rugged or not but some people here have complained of touch screen issues. But I bought mine because I saw the replacement parts on aliexpress.
The picture quality is good but not superb. The front camera is good for selfie but no flash. But the pro has only one led flash while the m8 has dual flash(good for night photo).
Somebody has already said that m8 is more rugged. I had a tough time choosing because I didn't like the back dual cameras of the m8pro which has only one poor flash and was more expensive. The m8 does not have have 4g.
I got my m8pro from Jumia because I was having difficulty buying from aliexpress. The phone online was N27800 and the leather pouch was N1300.

I wish I could upload some pics for you, but...

Apart from the issues I had earlier complained of, the phone is okay for me

cc danielgod, bobo65 thanks guys. I eventually did factory reset after backing up my data on my memory card via factory mode. The phone is working fine now. However, I have been trying to restore my data but it keeps saying "the backuped data is out of date". Please, is there a way I can access my data via PC?
