THERE'S NO POSSIBILITY TO DOWNLOAD THE NOVEMBER 17TH FIRMWARE THROUGH SP FLASH TOOL METHOD? HONESTLY I GUESS THE ROM IS QUITE HEAVY FOR THE PHONE, SPECIALLY THE KEYBOARD RESPONSE IS SLOW DURING THE WRITING

Your issue is not related to any of the currently available Nougat versions. No problem with the touch screen at all. I suggest you to test your touch panel with a tester app and if you find any issues, process a factory data reset.

Hi there,

I receieved OTA update notification for V3.01_20161228 (and before even for V3.01_20161209), downloading and extracting the files went fine but when the "restarting..." message popped up the phone wasn´t restarting (I waited about 30 min). So I flashed these updates with the flash tool.

I don´t want to do this update procedure (via flash tool) every time - I do prefer the OTA method ...Are there any permissons to be set to perform the OTA updates?

I`m happy because i guess i am lucky! I don`t have any kind of problems with my Umi Plus! All works fine including GPS,Camera,Signal,Wi-fi,4G connectivity! Everything! I guess i`m just lucky...

I`m running the last update of Android 7! And untill now i didin`t see any problems related to the software or hardware!
PS: I`m using Google Maps as GPS system,and i don`t have any problem!

Edited by FelisCatus at 2017-1-13 14:51 \n\nHi,

my phone found the latest update (V3.01_20161228) yesterday and the update process went smoothly - even if I actually couldn't read any of the description that came with the update as it was all in Chinese. ;-)

There are still some issues, though. Nothing major, but I thought I should mention them here, maybe some of it is fixable:

* I have two Wifi access points here. When moving from one to the other (Wifi roaming) the connection sometimes drops and can't be reestablished for some time. It seems like scanning for Wifi does sometimes still report the "old" AP that I was connected to before. Turning Wifi off and on again helps.

* I use K9 as my primary email app. When the phone is sleeping I can not receive push notifications unless I set K9 sync option to "always". Otherwise K9 reports that sync is turned off. On my previous phones I had it set to "when auto sync is on" and it worked fine. This seems to be a problem specific to this app - others apps that depend on the background sync option being set do not seem to have this problem -, so I guess they have to fix it, but I thought I would mention it.

* WhatsApp very occasionally crashes when I try to correct spelling errors by tapping on them. (I have turned auto correct off.) This may be a problem with the Google keyboard, though. Since they changed its name to "Gboard" I have had some problems with it anyways; I guess I have to check if the problem persists if I use a different keyboard app.

* GPS is OK, better than before, actually. It still takes a somewhat longer time to get a fix and it still is a bit jumpy, placing me several meters off the roads I'm travelling on, but it is nothing like it was before. I actually have the feeling that, the longer I have been using the GPS on the phone, the better it gets. When I first got the phone I reset the GPS using the maintenance mode and that helped a lot. It's still not as accurate as my old phone was, but it is OK for navigation using the Google Maps app now. It sometimes is even precise enough to find geocaches with it (using c:geo)... I guess what I want to say is that the main problem with GPS is that it most of the time is somewhat optimistic about the precision: It almost always reports something like 5 meters accuracy when in fact it is more like 10 or 20 meters. But again, it is not like it was in the beginning when I got the phone, when it almost never reported the correct position and lost the signal a lot.

All in all I would like to say that this ROM is an improvement over the last one as well as the original.

Comments

Hi, I had the same problems with K9. Now it works since I use the last Android 7, the latest K9 from f-droid. Background sync is on when auto sync is checked. Oh, I can't type more here, too bad...  Post time 2017-1-14 14:52

In this update the only bug that i've noticed is the action panel (status bar, notification panel). Sometimes when i swipe down twice the animation does get a bit laggy and i see some stutter. The rest of the things are working 100% perfect, no comments, but the action panel is not perfect, please make an update and fix this small issue. Thanks.
