Hi,

You should flash the latest ROM on your Super and it will solve your issue.

obviously NO.. with TWRP and/or Root OTA won't be possible!

Some OTA updates could be installed with TWRP on rooted phones but not all of them, that's true. Sometimes it's worth to make a try.

\n\nPlease, could you help me ? I've heard that two different touchscreens have been made for the Umi Super, my phone had a screen problem so i gave it back to China and today i received it.
I tried to flash my recovery (TWRP recovery for Umi super), everything is working fine, my phone isn't bricked, on my rom everything is working fine, but... When i'm starting the recovery, my touchscreen is inverted and i can't do anything, i'm unable to flash and to go to any settings inside the recovery with that problem.. , If you have any solution, please tell me, thank you so much !
China already flashed me the last rom version

Hi,

If you had flashed really the latest ROM on your phone, you wouldn't have such issues. So please download the latest ROM from here, and flash it.

Hi,

I also had a screen problem on my Super, so I bought a new one (they were no longer screens with frame, it was complicated to change) and when finally I succeeded, I installed TWRP.
I had the same problems as @petittux in TWRP, not after boot.
So I read this thread and flashed the last rom you linked (format all + download). Restart, all good. Then I flashed TWRP 3.02 for Umi Super and BOOM, the touch screen still doesn't work...

Help ?

I followed your instructions but when I reboot with PWR Btn + VOL Up it comes out an Android screen with "No tools" written.
I tried also booting with PWR Btn + Vol Dwn but it comes out a "Factory Mode" menu with Test sub menu and "Reboot" option. If Reboot is selected, normal reboot starts.
No Recovery menu found.
Ideas?

First try to flash the preloader only of the latest ROM, then flash all partitions but choose the 'Firmware Upgrade' option, not format all...
After you finished with the flashing, reboot into recovery for the first time.
