The antennas problems with Umi is commom to all versions, included GPS, 4G and WI FI. The problem is ...

I really appreciated your sharing these two YouTube videos.  The first made the "repair" look very easy.  The second is much more involved.  Thank you for your generosity in sharing these with the community.

I have posted a lot here on how bad and inconsistent I have found the 4g reception on the Super.

Today I used my GPS for the first time. It was terrible!

Had considered taking the phone apart but can't see why I should. I have emailed TomTop to request a return

Hello;

Its just to give you an idea how to open them you dont need to stripdown all the phone. Just the battery cover and the uper little one cover. Its on the back of the upper little one cover, that Antennas are installed. They are 2 little pieces of metal smashed on the plastic upper cover. With a precision knife as an X-act kind or other,  you put it up , this pieces os metal, up a little bit to allow them touch the hardware once you close this upper cover . Simple !

If this work for you and you wish to do a Bitcoin donation, this is the adress! Thank you!

Looks like Umi is a bisness that somenone running from a laptop at home and delagating all services to thirdpart compannies!

So when one of those incubed from delegated services fails, special the industrial assembly line process, there is nothing much to do !

Those videos are not for the UMI Super?
Has anyone opened the UMU Super model and tried the same?

This is the only picture I could find of the inside of the UMI super.

The antenna connectors are at the top.

If anybody is brave enough to have a crack at this let us know how you get on!

If this is really the inside of Super then we are faced with another lie from UMI. The battery is not Sony but a Li-Po battery of any Chinese producer. UMI what do you reply to this?  Post time 2016-10-4 03:33
