...wider...
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] kariolmax:
What about quality? On Spanish forums tells that it's almost the same.
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] arcatarc:
....i can tell it now:it is under charging...
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] kariolmax:
Is it hard to install?
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] arcatarc:
...for now it is only plugged to connector but out of the body...it need to be reduced about 1-1,5 mm Tomorrow i will try to reduce it in "hard way"...
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] arcatarc:
Update 1, the battery seems to be best at everything, durability, heat generated, there are not strange jumps charge ..... but .... I do not recommend to buy it: it is too wide and thick and does not fit well into the structure of the phone.

unfortunately we have to find another battery of quality even minor capacity, but it enters well .....

Does anyone have the possibility to test/compare the Lg g2 ones ?
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] JankyLV:
Can't you push it in there, and keep it all together with this case?

Yes, it's exactly what i did(the only way)...but i can't not place the back cover......for now i keep it in this way until i found a better solution...

Exciting news 1: Umi is almost finished with there UMI Zero tools. (see screenshots)

Exciting news 2: there is a new ROM which should resolve more random reboots (but not all) (I'm currently testing it after I found a case to reproduce random reboots. So far no reboots)

Exciting news 3: Umi changed tactics and has hired a new team to work on MIUI V6 release for Umi Zero
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] victorzijka:
this is why i said changing the battery was a solution only if its broken.

Also i read in htcmania that lg g2 battery doesn't fit
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] arcatarc:
....ofcourse my battery was broken...however I have to say quality is quality:after a day of normal use I've got 70%...it seems it never discharge :)
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] kariolmax:
OMG, I must get it! Please find a solution to install it :c
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] reisamm:
any difference on the way it displays the bat size on several programs (that only show 1000)?
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] victorzijka:
It's may be crazy, but i hope my glass pop out so i can change the battery without much problem...

i'm just getting 2:30 - 3h max of screen time at the end of day with Emumi :(

new phone. no camera set up working!

I have recieved my new Umi Zero (a replacement for one with a battery that "blew out" and pushed glass out.

I havnt tested anything yet! just camera there, and realise the back sensor isnt set up at all! no rear camera. No button or setting to switch from front camera in camera app. Tryed snapchat and that wont recognise the back camera either.

Ill check if antutu picks it up now, and ill check camera permission settings and get back to edit this post.

EDIT: permissions okay, Antutu found the RS imx214 aperture 1.8 sensor BUT nothing listed for front or back camera! even though the front is working!

Anything i can do to install the sensor driver or whatever is needed?!

running V3.05, will update tomorrow.Is OTA working yet?

Also the side buttons were perfect in my last Zero, however like with some peoples reviews the buttons are abit loose in the phone I now have.

EDIT [MENTION=516740]arcatarc[/MENTION] i posted asking same in your ROM thread, but no point in me trying ROM with cams not working? that wont fix it?! And theres no Umi area in xda to ask SO since you messed around with this device alot...

Can you please point me in the direction of what I couid try to fix or what i should ask [MENTION=1160670]umi[/MENTION]offical to help with?

I just dont want to send phone back any wait another 6weeks for it!!

Sorry to ask you directly but you have toyed around with the ins and outs of this device more than anyone it seems and maybe you know where the camera driver files or whatever I need are :)

EDIT: UPDATE! thanks for reply in ROM thread arcatarc. Umi have replied to me within 24hrs. And said they will contact the reseller and get me a new device shipped ASAP. I have a front camera til then :/

EDIT! Something very STRANGE happened...after 2 days...IT FIXED ITSELF! before antutu and zdevice test wasnt finding any camera and now it did and they both work and flashlight too! Wierd..maybe a loose connection that fixed itself after warming up I Donno!
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] Zvdo:
I can't believe there will be such a difference in bat life can you check mv levels with some program or any way to compare them....

Can we see what's changed in update for reboots so we can understand why they are here. Update is in umi one drive in 3.06 update thread can be found on their forum

Microphone issue - Not working

I just received my Umi Zero (pre-installed with version 3.05) and I updated to latest version 3.06. Upon first use I found out that the microphone does not work during phone calls. In sound recording app it works just fine. Does anyone else experience the same problem? Is it hardware or software bug? Btw I read through the posts and found only one guy with the same problem but did not find any answers from others, or a feedback from him if he managed to fix the problem.
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] blackbravo:
go to recovery and try to do a reset... or reflash the update....
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Thanks, I will try that later today and let you know.
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Did a factory reset and also run the ota-update again but problem is still there. Microphone works just fine on sound recorder.

[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] andreas0102:
Thank you very much. But how long do you have it?

Because many people have problems with battery and the software.
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] bodyjoao:

[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] andreas0102:
Thank you very much,I will order from to2c.com because is cheaper(180euros) i hope all will be good!!
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] bodyjoao:
First see the opinions of the shop..I only shop from efox.com ...is more expensive but is 100%.... There is others that have hadware problems....so take care....
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] reisamm:
Check

resellerratings.com

before buying, made all the diference to me. My 1st order had many problems at efox.com.pt (very dissapointed at the service and custumer support), after canceling that efox order, I bought mine at geekbuying (in spain warehouse) rated at 9.22 out of 10, very happy the way they handle it. already bought another for my brother ;)

My phone cme without the camera working and after two days it fixed itself! lets hope it stays working!

[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] Kazama Levi:
I've got mine since beginning of January and have got no noteworthy problems.

I wouldn't buy from efox, however, they've got a bad reputation (Spanish efox: 1.67 out of 10, main efox: 3.08 out of 10).

I also noticed that most people who have problems with their Umi Zero have ordered from efox.

I would reccommend Geekbuying, they've got a good reputation (9.23 out of 10), and they also have good and fast support and fast shipping. My Umi Zero only took three days from Hong Kong to me (Europe), and that wasn't even Express, just standard DHL :good:

btw, post 1111 :D
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] kariolmax:
I have a problem! Paint from sim tray and I tore off a little bit at the top of the phone (the greenish metal frame). You know what this paint? Top on the phone greenish color, so as not distinguished.

new

Hi everyone, i only found this forum by searching on google so im new, i have been looking to buy umi zero but im not sure since you have to apprantly install all these updates and stuffs and im not good at these things, i had a samsung galaxy note 2 before, i checked all these details and the phone looks good and if its true its a great phone but i wanted to know what is your experience as an owner, do you think i should buy this phone or not? does it have many problems? will i be able to install updates and launchers easily??

if anyone could answer me i will be very happy, thank you very much in advance :) :):o
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Initially I downloaded the rom from umidigi forum. After your suggestion to re-flash I downloaded it from needrom. Unfortunately the problem still exists. Seems that other umi zero owners have the same problem, just search for "umi zero mic" on youtube (I cannot post external links yet).

I am in contact with geekbuying to return the phone and get a replacement. The only thing I am worried about is the long item it will take to return the phone to china, they won't cover expenses if I return the phone with express posting like DHL, even though I paid for DHL delivery (took only three days to arrive in Cyprus, Europe).
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] andreas0102:
I had a contact with to2c about battery and they told me, umi solved the problem

With the battery on january!! Is this truth??? And I have one question more, is better to charge the phone with its own fast charger or with another charger??? Please help me!!
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] fappapp:
Look youve seen the poll! 50% have reboot problems (its not too bad for people, maybe 2 a day for most people, should get fixed with updates!) and the battery can go to **** too! But I think this is because the battery cant handle the fast charge, so If you use a normal charger this wont be an issue.

Since youve seen the poll and still want to buy it, youve fallen for the charm of the Umi Zero :o Go for it!

If your battery gets issues, Umi will send a placement battery and back glass - see the Umi offical forum (link on thier FB page)

Also see post #1091 Umi have developed software for pc transfer of files and management of the device. What else is on this software I dont know, hopefully someone will reply and share what they know?! [MENTION=2721006]clubvibe[/MENTION]

Umi should have the OTA updates sorted soon so that will auto-update if you click search for updates in settings, and either way its very easy through putting the update on your SD card ( guide on umi offical forum). You wont have any problems installing new launchers from playstore...

The phone comes pre-rooted anyway so you should have fun! trying something new and following guides on how to flash a new ROM, everyone seems to love arctarac's Huawei ROM http://xdaforums.com/android/general/rom-arcatarcs-umi-zero-emumi-t3014306

---------- Post added at 07:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:17 PM ----------

I just got a replacement Zero, and I tryed the fast charge once on the 3rd day, it went from 0% to 78% in 20minutes so that cant be good!!

I plugged in normal charger @78% and it took a couple of hours to fill so the 78% obviously we know wasnt possible in 20mins.

Im sticking to normal charger for now. should be plenty of opinions on this about half way through the thread!

Ask Umi official on their own forum and come back here and post what they tell you?
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] MiguelferraZ:
I always use the original charger, and it takes around 1h40m from 0 to 100%. I'm very happy with the battery, and so far so good :)
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] s7yler:
Applying the OTA updates is really easy. You just download a file from the internet, put it on a sdcard, click a button in the phone settings, and it will update it, and your done.
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] parhammp:
thanks fappapp you sorted out for me :)

thank!

Please help Ive been at it for hours! I actually managed to connect to usb debugging, but didnt last long, and I tried copying ROM from pc to pone but said file size is largr than its limit, even tho the rom was 400mb and I had enough space on my sd card.. someone please instruct me!! I have no ROM on sd card, i downloaded vcom and adb drivers , also downloaded USBDeview.. tried everything, I know there is a way, im going wrong somewhere :(
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] eryen:
For you easiet way is,

download 3.01 from umidigi and sp flash tool.

On spflash tool, select scatter file from 3.01 folder. Un select boot preloader. Press flash.

Connect phone via usb on poweroff condition.

Spflash will return your phone in fabric contition.

After flash done and power on phone, you can update to any rom you want, stock or custom
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] Hadziano:
Thanks so much!!! You are a fricking legend!!!

Please tell me my next steps, my previous version was 3.06 and I hated it!! phone was restarting,random screenshots,battery from 60% to 15% in 2 mins etc...

which ROM would you recommend and where did I go wrong last time when I tried updating? thanks

ps: updated to 3.06

I want the arcatarc ROM, I followed them instructions last time... they didn't work..

from umi official they told me:

Well, the problem is that fast charging sooner or later will decrease capacity of the battery. As any other charger. So lower is the charging power than better.
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] arcatarc:
Try this way:

Follow ALL steps in rom thread,but,before WIPE & INSTALL go to TWRP-Settings and select "Use rm -rf instead of formatting."

In this way Recovery will not format your partitions(it will only delete old files)
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] Hadziano:
I've done it! Very nice ROM but few things I don't like:

: What's with chinese writing on some apps?

: the preinstalled apps i.e. App store don't need ( how do I delete )

: notification screen, not as good as original

home screen, ALL apps stored on it.

no notification for some messages from whatsapp.

mi account? do we really need it?
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] kariolmax:

[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] Ego84:
Guys what phone would you recommend instead of this one? My Umi Zero is restarting randomly even when I updated the rom 3.06 and if that is the final update I dont want this phone. Also the bluetooth is worthless, forget about using wireless headphones with this phone.

The call sound is really low even at max volume and the speaker is bad. Also I dont like that the home and back buttons are not lit all the time. I need to tap the button area several times untill I hit the correct spot.

Would you recommend Jiayu S3 instead of this phone? I would really apriciate all suggestions for a phone prize ranged similar to Umi Zero. I could even pay 100 bucks more if the phone actually worked properly.

I hope I can send this back to the seller and buy a new different phone.

Future support for South America?

Hi, i live in Mexico and after lurking on the internet on why i can't connect to my 3g network, i found this.

Is this limitation permanent, or i just need to be patient until it gets patched? because although 2g networks are functional, they are frustratingly slow to the point that every 10 min i want to break my beautiful phone in half.

Has anyone been successful in returning or replacing the phone because of the well known problems?

I have finally decided I have had enough of the spontaneous reboots and unusable Bluetooth. I thought I would try to get geekbuying.com to take it back on the condition that I purchase a different phone from them.
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] thepopos:
I've had mine for just over a week now and am mostly loving it.

I'm using the 'no reboot' ROM from the Umi one drive and it is very stable, no crashes at all. It's based on v3.06.

The phone does get a bit warm if you do anything intensive. I've also noticed that it seems to struggle when moving from one wifi access point to another when they're both on the sane network. This is annoying at work but disabling the wifi and enabling it again resolves the issue so I can live with it.

The only thing that is really annoying me is the constant screenshots. A three finger swipe down takes a screenshot. Unfortunately this somehow means I get lots of screenshots when on a phone call and sometimes it even happens when the phone is in my pocket. Does anyone know how to disable it?
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] MiguelferraZ:
You can disable that, I'm using the MIUI ROM now, so I don't know very well. But try to go to accessibility in settings, maybe it's there.
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] ms_ppc:
Olá Miguel,

What was the rom that you install ?

I installed both available and have many bugs... I have problem's with wifi, drop easily ...

Regards
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] thepopos:
There's no option I can see in Accessibility. There's an option called air gesture under Personal but I have that off.

I've checked all the settings and can't find anything.

In a typical day I end up with about 20 screenshots! I know it's not the end of the world but it bugs the hell out of me!!!

Shame because I'm very happy with the phone other than that.
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] MiguelferraZ:
I know there is an option somewhere, because I had that problem too and I disabled that screenshot function. But I'm using another ROM now, so I don't remember where it was :/

---------- Post added at 08:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:47 PM ----------

I have the MIUI ROM from arcatarc. For me everything works, it just have some small bugs and it's not fully optimized because it's a beta version. But it is already very good, and I'll keep using it :)
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] s3thcorp:
To all of you who have the screen capturing problem , the easiest way is to go to Settings - > Display -> Screen capture and UNTICK IT !

Good day to you all !

P.S. Hope Umi Zero finds a way to fix this bug in its next update , in order to take normally screenshots .
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] thepopos:
Not sure how I missed that option!

I would like the option to take screenshots but this is great for now.

Battery drain

Hello to everyone.I am having probrems with sudden battery drain after a few rom changes.The problem started after I flashed Arcatac's EMUmIZERO.After that, I flashed again the stock rom 3.01 with full wipe(even the imei numbers,which I restored).I did a few times battery calibration(app),but nothing.I am starting to believe that it is hardware issue.I used the stock charger a couple of times but usually use a sony changer.Thank you in advance!
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] clubvibe:
I think the reason you are having battery drains is because of changing ROM's. Android needs some time to recalibrate your battery. Apps like Battery Calibration might help you there.
[UMi ZERO Guides, News, & Discussion] victorzijka:
Its a kernel problem. They dont know how to solve it yet. Umi told it in some umidigi forum
