UMi Z Android 7.1.1 first beta released

mrrus · Post time 2017-5-16 22:12:38

Edited by mrrus at 2017-5-16 22:48 \n\nWhat I would like to see in the Android 7.1.1 Nougat update of the UMI Z:
1. Increase in battery life (battery life is mediocre with the UMI Z)
2. Increase in camera performance (specially for the rear camera where closeup focusing is impossible), I can only focus like about 15cm from the object.3. Implement more features in the camera Pro mode, such as (i) shutter speed, (ii) white balance in Kelvin and (iii) manual focusing.
4. Because Android Nougat has Google assistant, it will be great if the physical home button as well as the home button on the screen to open Google assistant rather than opening recent apps.
5. Make one of the capacitive button to open recent apps rather than showing options. By doing so, we can use the button for faster split-screen mode in Android Nougat.
6. Support for Pump Express 3.0 rather than Pump Express+ (which works but even though a full charge takes 2 hours 40 min)
7. Implement Mediatek's Imagiq features such as EIS+gyro video stabilization and slow-motion video recording or the 480 FPS video playback slow motion.
8. Fix general issues like Airplane mode activating by itself, bluetooth activating when switching airplane mode off, bluetooth connection issues, some overheating issues and others mentioned by the users.

Good post! Also what about that new version? It has been 20 days since first beta release. We are waiting for somewhat stable release of Nougat waaaay too long.

Hi,
is it possible to install version "UMDIGI Z Pro Android 7.1.1 beta V7.01_20170509" on an UMI Z ?
Will have we a bad function of the rear camera?
Thanks

Hi, seriously don't do that. Umi Z and Z pro share similar hardware but the camera modules are different. In the best case scenario the rear camera won't work, but you can also run into other issues. It's not worth the hassle. The final version of Android 7 for Umi Z is already confirmed and should be released most likely during next couple of days.

Why is umi z neclected by umidigi compared with umidigi z pro? Z pro will receive its third beta nougat version tomorrow when umi z is still on first version released a month ago. Shall I assume that all the tests are done only on Z pro because they are similar? Is the OTA update to be released for both models at the same time or umi z will be delayed for several days/weeks? Please someone from Umidigi to give us some answers!
