after installing latest OTA 0810 still bluetooth issue resists. When paired with smartwatch and car audio at the same time car audio is not transferring audio data.

UMI please check that and solve that please.

UMI staff still reading here?
@bencebacsi Is the issue noted? It is just a software thing, please forward it to dev so it can be solved for next OTA. Thx

I have the same problem with my Pebble Time Round and Sony Smartwatch 2 smartwatches. I can't connect to them at all now. I had another phone, the Vernee Thor which has a very similar ROM (same developers?) and had the same issue. So I sold it to someone who doesn't have a smartwatch. I've sent emails to UMI support, one with a video of the issue. No response. I would be extremely happy if there was a fix in a near future update

My final verdict after 30 day usage of umi super
Pros:
1. Specs
2. Build and flagship features
3. Battery life
4. Software

Cons:
1. Camera quality
2. Weak Wifi/Bluetooth/GSM/GPS signals
3. Audio quality

Umi super will blow you away with bang for your buck specs and superb design and features. However, it is really frustrating that the basic smartphone functions are not polished or should I say, below average.

Wifi signal is weak
Bluetooth signal is weak
GSM signal is weak
GPS signal is inaccurate and really bad
Audio output is so weak
Camera and video quality in lowlight is very bad

These are common problems on umi super phones. My verdict is based on comparisons from other midrange smartphones I've tried such as Samsung Galaxy S3, Samsung Galaxy W, Alcatel Flash Plus & Flash Plus 2. It is disappointing that the basic functions are below average. This is the weakest smartphone I've tried when it comes to wifi/bluetooth/gsm/GPS/audio. I can live by the bad camera but the others are a big no no. I have been requesting for a software fix for these to Umiofficial but they suggest mine is an isolated case. But I know that it is not. Still hoping that they do something about these. Umi super is such a promising phone but UMI should ensure that the basic functions are solid and average at best.

Hi,

Anyone has issue with high power consumption of Bluetooth even if it is not connected? My phone consumes between 28 to 30% battery from a fully charges phone until it has about 15% battery left. Basically out of 85% power consumption, around 30% wasted by Bluetooth while nothing is connected to it. Anyone has similar issue or now how to fix it?

Thanks

I have found another Buetooth bug after updating to 20161017.

I use a Sony ericsson MW600 bluetooth headset. Before the update i could control the play, skip, back. Now it only works when phone screen is awake. Screen off music keeps playing, but no controls.
