New hope from UMI by today news.
UMI has provided a video about a running lollipop.
Jump to YouTube. ...

Oh, a new hope! So I am waiting more, do not update to V05.
The Lollipop functionality and theme on KitKat kernel is good for me, if that will work well.

The missing drivers probably exist as Kernel modules. If they got at least the Kitkat source code, it might actually be possible for them to port these to the TCL Lolipop rom. Well, lets see what happens. They lied so often to us, that I dont believe anything of them anymore.

There can't be any more mileage in them lying again , let's hope they're sincere this time.

Hello,
I gave my daughter has Emax who need a powerful phone with a good battery.
I watched youtube video and I see the frimware jyasus3 the problem is more than the m2m
Here is what remains to be tested for those who want to help the community

anyone cant take time for upgrade with spft then testing M2M flashing rom-port-lollipop.zip

Test replace modem_1_wg_n.img from port (lollipop) with modem_5_lwg_n.img from stock (kitkat)

With CarlivImageKitchen
Decompile Your Stock ROM's Boot.IMG and get init.modem.rc
Decompile Your Port ROM's Boot.IMG and get init.modem.rc
Add the missing lines of Port's one
Grab Notepad++ an open the 2 init.modem.rc ( The file from port and stock Boot.IMG )
Compare the 2 files, add the non existing methods / classes / lines to the port ones .

also this port for same soc
Rename your stock kitkat boot.img to stockboot.img and the port boot.img to portboot.img. Unpack the boot.imgs, in ramdisk folder from decompiled portboot.img open the fstab (ramdisk/fstab or fstab.mt65xx) file with Notepad++ and edit (compare with the fstab.mt65xx of your decompiled stockboot.img) and save. Use the kernel 3.4.67(zImage) from your decompiled stockboot.img and the ramdisk folder from decompiled portboot.img, recompile it and replace in port rom folder.

That doesn't work, at least not if you use a lollipop ramdisk content (ported boot.img) together with the kernel from a kitkat stock boot.img.
I tried that some weeks ago, but recompiling the boot.img was not possible.

Nobody knows that yet, not even the developers.
Sorry.
