Hello Ben, I got my S3 Pro through Indiegogo in the US and I'm relatively happy with the product. Wh ...

Yes, I also did not see Carrier Aggregation (such as 4G+) at the notification bar, I use the same sim card but got 4G+ in my LG old (Q6+) phone,  Does S3 pro support Carrier Aggregation ?

Good morning!

First week with the phone was great, no issues whatsoever. The OTA arrived yesterday, all went well, everything worked fine until this morning. Phone was charged 100% when I got up, arrived at work and suddenly see the UMIDIGI logo on the screen, phone shut off. Was never able to turn on the phone again. Charged the phone, held the button, etc., no luck, phone is completely dead. What now?

Thanks for your help already in advance,

Received my S3 Pro for over a week, pretty happy with the product, except the camera performance is NOT at its best.

-- The camera software is laggy, especially in Photo mode, it takes at least 1 second to start recording the image after pressing the shooting button. Basically this makes it useless in this mode, all other modes(like Pro) work fine. Image quality is not that good even compared with F1. Obviously it's the camera app not working correctly, not the hardware. The Sony 48MP sensor is great, but it needs lots of fine tune in app to support the features and get the best images. If looking at Xiaomi phone using the exactly same sensor, it took them a few updates to make it work as expected, especially night scene shooting
-- After system upgrade recently, the above problem has been corrected. Image quality is improved, but still not to its best and potential of the hardware.
-- Again, camer app is missing at least the following very important features: HDR, Panorama and Night scene shooting modes. These are pretty much standard in modern mid-range and above phones. And the hardware does support them. Please add them, as a so-called flagship phone, these features should be there.

-- Battery seems a little worse than my F1, both have the same 5150 battery, same system, same screen, but S3 Pro has about 1 hour+ shorter life, don't know why.
-- The new update increased the gap between top icon display(notification area), so some previous visible icons are now invisible due to that. I still like the previous compact display. The battery icon display now is horizontal, which is even worse because it takes way more space. Please give an option of horizontal or vertical display for battery icon

yes! The new update increased the gap between top icon display at top left hand corner (notification area), if more than 4 icons, some of them will invisible. please make it compact.

battery seems get worse after update.( it is noticeable)..but not too bad, for me , it is still acceptable, at lease I don't need another charging for an 24 hours usage.

battery icon issue...please make it simple , just like other mobile phone ( Samsung, LG....) is good enough! (make the battery icon vertical and put the numerical battery % just beside the icon is fine)

After update, SMS delay issue still exists, the bank send me OTP vis SMS for money transaction, it takes more than 1 hour to receive the OTP!  I am using the same sim card same mobile phone carrier, it never happened in my old LG phone (previously, I can got the OTP within 1 minute). Now I cannot rely on this phone to use internet banking.  UMIDIGI, please fix this  issue.

Hello,
I have received my S3 Pro yesterday. After I have put my sim card and signed to my profile it is functioning well but after the screen is locked and I wake it up it asks again for sim password and starts again "checking for updates" and asks again to"sign in" and go all the steps for "initial set-up", in addition all previously downloaded applications from profile have disappeared.Everything repeats in the same way after the screen locks.

Please for help on the above!

For me, I try to avoid use the fast charging function using the original charger , The battery and phone body is so hot that may damaged the electronic component  or shortened the life of battery. Usually I charge the phone overnight while sleeping (It takes 4 hours to complete the charge (10%> 100%), Therefore I don't need fast charging. Just using a regular  5V 1A slow charger will work.

For other difference....already talked in the previous post, that need to be improved.

You may consider to reset the phone by restore it to factory setting (can be done in the setting >system > reset). The the problem still exist, there might be firmware problem and you need to flash the firmware again, or ask UMIDIGI to replace a new phone
