This is the SP Flash Tool release of the

V1.0_20200506.V3.17 system software

for UMIDIGI F2

Flash tool operation is recommended to experienced users only. If you are not yet an experienced flash tool user, please carefully read the flash tool tutorial before proceeding, and strictly follow each instruction.

Except if an authorized or responsible expert directly asked you to do that,

never format the flash chip of your device or you instantly lose your warranty!

UMIDIGI F2 receives all updates automatically via FOTA method. You need this tool only in case of emergency (if you've bricked your phone), if you want to apply a clean install or if you want to clear all root access and custom recovery to make your phone able to receive FOTA updates again. Moreover, flashing with SPFT is the only option to repair (replace) damaged system software.

Changelog:

• 'OK Google' on locked screen added
• Android Security Patch updated to 2020 March
• Screen record function added
• Headphones media play sound quality improved
• A green floating (can be repositioned) phone button added when your phone call is in the background
• Fast charging notification added on lock screen
• OTA update bug of the 0428 version fixed
  

FOTA version: UMIDIGI_F2_V1.0_20200402_20200506-1120

ROM: >>> UMIDIGI_F2_V1.0_20200506.V3.17.rar <<<

Extract the .rar file before use. The scatter file (MT6771_Android_scatter.txt) is inside the extracted folder, together with the other components

SPFT: SP_Flash_Tool_v5.2016.rar

VCOM driver: Windows 10 can automatically install it. Please make sure that your Windows is logged in with administrator rights and your computer has a working internet connection when first time connecting your phone.

Here's an optional solution to start the flashing process on your UMIDIGI F2 if the standard method doesn't work.

It's especially useful if your phone is bricked or is stuck in bootloop

1. Connect your UMIDIGI F2 to USB.

2. Start the flashing process with the Download button in the flasher app.

3. Press and keep pressed the power button of your phone until the flashing process starts (red bar appears at the bottom of the app window), then release it. In this process you have to keep the power button pressed for about 10 seconds.

4. Wait until the flashing process finishes.

If you accidentally formatted the flash chip of your phone, visit the following thread: Recover fingerprint scanner and Google key Android 9 and 10

Kind request from users:
Please report any kind of new issues you experience after installing this update only if you've already flashed this ROM with SP Flash Tool in Firmware Upgrade mode. In rare cases a FOTA update can cause more or less serious malfunctions but that means only the update process went wrong, not a badly developed ROM. An updated stock ROM, especially related to the basic functions will not cause any new issues but will solve some of the existing ones.

People take it easy.
Don't you understand that Umidiga's company doesn't care about customers. They got their money. And our users then suffer with their underproduction. I have a set of problems too. Weak network signal, Wi-Fi itself turns on after a forced shutdown. The microphone, like that of all, does not work. The fingerprint scanner is missing. The body cracked near the fingerprint ....


Personally, I don't look at their phones anymore. Although they are very attractive in terms of filling and price, their quality and lack of technical support discourage the desire.

And you bencebacsi of course mean me once again banned for the truth.
Prove to everyone how you hate criticism!

Nice job!  What's the difference between this OTA and the other one posted as 20200428? Should we receive 2 OTA updates or only one?

No difference. This version is released because the OTA update bug of the 0428 version, so the wireless update of that version has been rejected.

Yes, wireless updates always contain only the changes, so you can update your phone to the latest version in one step by SP Flash Tool or first you have to wireless update to the 0306 version, then you can update to this latest version.

Well for the update. But one question: in the changelog it says that the screen recording function has been added. But where is it? Thanks
