Hi,
here we can collect all our wishes and concerns for the next release, to have them all collected together.
I will try to keep this first entry up to date.

Fixes:
- battery drain
- unsuspected Wireless/Bluetooth connection drops
- Camera update, focus issue and low light fix --> just tesing with new SW
- after reboot all settings should be kept like before --> f.e. Bluelight filter is after every reboot disabled!
- power saving profile switching --> not all settings are always like they should be
- Wrong battery consumption percentages
- "Use since last full charge" can show significant wifi consumption although it was switched off and not used at all overnight, in the standby mode;
- Battery percentage is sometimes visible on the lock screen, sometimes not.
- SD-card size is calculated wrong, when it is established as internal storage.
- Notification bar is pulling down by itself
- can't hide the Notification "App permission management is running"
- Double TAB improvments --> some users complaining, that it is completly not working or they need a triple Tab
- Left physical button does not functionally equals to the left "Recent running task" virtual button and it should be. Let the left physical button activates "Recent running task" option.
- fix the rotation issue, which is in since V.3.02_20170317
- fix the sound issue,  which is in since V.3.02_20170317


Wishes:
- Nougat 7.1!!!!!
- modifications like on LineAgeOS/CM
- actual security patches from Android
- more LED colors notifcation. If i choose a different color from Whatsapp it doesn't work
- It would be great to have Call block list and voip available under settings menu.
- when charging and a notification is  coming in, the charging LED should blink, notification is more important than the charging LED.
- improved calender APP, drag'n'drop f.e.
- Possibility to remove Google Search from a home screen like any other widget.
- improve File Manager (no option to move, but to hide the files)
- Add Weather Service and a phone cleaner.
- Add Private mode
- Add % & Time while charging.
- Hide the wireless update icon/app from the app drawer
- Home button: when Smart lock has already unlocked, the Home-Button should wake up the phone without Fingerprint check!
- animated Boot logo, instead of the boring Android logo...
- notification BAR, disable the oversized 2G/3G/4G symbols
- HW buttons free configurable
- Messaging/Settings/Text Message (SMS)/Edit quick text: It is possible to add new quick text as well as delete it.
- Phone/Settings/Quick responses: There is no possibility to add or delete quick response text. Just to edit what is already offered. Possibilities should be the same to those described for the messaging.
- much more improved Camera App
This description points to a very limited ease of operation of the camera app and this would be a nice upgrade:
1. Since it can not be known whether we used it or not it would be very useful to add "_HDR" suffix to the picture name whenever we are taking a picture with HDR option turned on.
2. Once we choose a HDR option it should be saved for the next time and not switched off by default. It is also very difficult to distinguish it just by the color whether it is switched off or on. It should be given as "HDR ON" or "HDR OFF"
"3. Photo modes are still difficult to choose. The letters are small and words are close to the shoot button. I have very often mistakenly taken a shot instead of choosing the right option."

Please post below  your fixes and wishes, i will try to copy them to this first entry...
Before posting, please check if it is already listed here.

Hopefully the UMI-guys will read that.

Another set of bugs coming in. First one is most likely well known, even if you set wifi to turn itself off during sleep it remains always on and contributes to significant battery drain.
The second one is with the alarm clock. I am not using the stock app, I rather use the updated Alarm app by Google - because of increasing alarm volume option, I don´t want to have a heart attack every morning ;)  Anyway I found out the alarm is not started on time, rather it seems to be abit off. I set the alarm to 6:20 and the alarm started at 6:24. It´s almost like the phone is in the deep sleep mode and doesn´t respond to alarm app. It happened regularly starting at 6:21, 6:23, but almost never at 6:20 as it is supposed to. I will try the stock app just in case.

I have found two bugs that may cause excessive battery drain. Both are components of Android System.
First one is the backup component that is used for example when you backup or restore apps using Helio. It is not ended and prevents deep sleep.
The second one is related to double tap to wake function - agoldgesturewakelock. Even if you turn the function off this component is not ended preventing deep sleep and causing battery drain.
To fix it you have to either reboot the phone or force stop Android System.

Just a personal experience update:
Camera still sucks. Laser focus is a total mess
Battery still sucks.
Processor profile still need tweaks. At idle with the screen locked while playing music, sometimes the music stops for a few momments.
Screen, despite the flicker at very very low brightness, is ok.
Wifi, 3g, 4g and bluetooth is ok
Processor
Gps is ok

Figerprint is kinda ok.

Sorry to intrude but please could everyone also share an opinion and place a vote to keep the current platform or to redesign the community forum, which is explained further here: http://community.umidigi.com/thread-6698-1-1.html

When using an "Intelligent" power saving profile, let say from 00:00 to 06:00 it happens that outside this period WiFi turns on randomly and turns off within 10 sec when I swith it on.

This happens by the rule.

\n\nI can't hide the Notification "App permission management is running".

The battery is so worse since the last update. I only reach 3.5 hours display on time. Before the update nice 6 hours.
Sometimes The mobile data dosn't work.
Then i have to reboot the phone.

Wish:
Rescheduling of events during the day in a Calendar application should be possible by simple drag&drop, not to go into classic editing which is boring and time consuming.

But that is a "problem" from the calendar app of android itself and has nothing to do with the phone
