Could you post a changelog or at least describe, what's different in this ROM? Are phone calls possi ...

I'm the poster (UMIstake) but now as a moderator. All of these firmwares are made for TCL M2M, not for UMI eMAX, so phone calling and photographing is still not possible and never will be. We're still waiting for eMAX lollipop upgrade.

I'm not really convinced that we will ever get a working Android 5. By now it looks like UMI did more less the same as you. Trying out ROMS of other phones with the same hardware and reaching an impasse. That would at least explain, why their Android 5 beta has similar issues like yours.
Unfortunately their lack of communication isn't helping, too.

That beta is obviously a TCL M2M firmware, not an eMax one. That's the reason of the same issues. These M2M firmwares are provided on romjd.com. I just mirroring them for those users who don't have a baidu account. Now I'm in touch with some UMI employees, so I try to get as much information as I can, but unfortunately they're not members of the technical personnel. I'm also an eMax user anyway, so I'm personally interested in the lollipop upgrade.

I've given up the experimenting for the same reason. I bought this phone for daily use, not for playing with it.

So far I've yet to successfully do a system.img->system.raw->system.img using the provided tools...  ...

Its a bit of a late response but, I am also under the same mission. What I have been doing is instead of making a whole new system.img and re-flashing, I have root browser installed, and I just install/remove the files I am wanting to change through that. It may not be as quick, but its worked so far.. I will be trying some of the roms of this phone and reporting on my "experiment" forum.

As an addition, we know that, there's another eMax lollipop firmware in UMI developers' hand that fully working but the touch screen. I try to get that version if that really exists.

Well, its really would be nice if they give it to us. Maybe we can figure out something.
