[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] saranshkmr.in:
Hi everyone, this is to request to fix a weird issue. I have flashed following roms for my G4 plus(Xt1643) : Invicta Os, RR, Pure nexus, Hexagon os. There are various versions of these roms available , I have tried them all and many a time their new updates.

I always make a clean fresh install just to be sure. The thing is whatever rom i flash I have a weird issue, that of camera. Whenever I use camera, the device gets very heat up, and while using video recording it lags like hell. It fells like it has skipped a million frames.

And many a times device gets shut down while it got heat up. I have tried many camera apps with these roms like snap camera, moto camera, motorola camera, google camera, htc camera, cameringo, footej camera.

Only footej and cameringo seem to work, but sometime they also show the same issue. And auto focus in cameringo doesn't work in video recording mode, but works in footej.

The thing which surprise me the most is everything works fine in STOCK rom!! Otherwise I would have thought it as a hardware issue. I have used enough stock rom and I flash custom roms sometimes just in hope that this time the issue will get resolved, but no luck.

I don't want to use stock rom anymore. Please suggest me a custom rom which doesn't cause this issue; if anyone else with this issue got any fix PLEASE HELP.

Following is the link for the logs I grabbed while using camera app:

A service I use automatically sends me a push notification every time I sign in. The notification shows up in my notification bar, where I can quickly press "Yes", then "Confirm" which is getting annoying. I want develop a tweak to watch my notification center for this confirmation notification, and automatically accept and confirm it. I have some experience with the Android SDK and developing android games using Unity, but I wasn't sure where to start on this project. I tried looking for similar tweaks that would fix my problem, but I came up empty handed. Can someone point me in the right direction and get me started?

I want to try it, has someone done it??
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ChanceGPM:
I tried it and I had to do it 2 times in order to get supersu and root access. After that I got some issues when I tried flashing other roms, they got stuck at galaxy s8+ screen. I would recommend flashing twrp in odin, then do a full wipe in twrp, then flash this zip: https://www.youtube.com/redirect?v=...ity-opt-encrypt/no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip and then supersu through twrp instead.

Remember to enable OEM unlock in developer options before the procedure!
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ascertion:
I am stock rooted. I got an OTA that I'd like to update but it looks like it doesn't want to flash through twrp. I want to stay stock rooted. Do I need to reflash entire image?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fnldstntn:
Try Flashfire.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _mysiak_:
If flashfire doesn't work (like in my case), just flash stock recovery and apply OTA. You'll have stock unrooted ROM and you can follow these steps:

1. have stock rom + stock recovery

2. use "fastboot boot twrp.img" (boots TWRP without flashing it)

3. install magisk from TWRP

When OTA cames in, I just apply it and then repeat steps 2 and 3.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ascertion:
Do you know if OTA will work if I have any other system modifications? I pushed some apps to /system for example. :silly:

Thanks for your help!
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _mysiak_:
As far as I know, even mounting system as R/W can prevent OTA update. I wouldn't even try to apply OTA with modified system partition. In your case I would download full factory image, flash everything without data wipe, root as suggested above and apply next OTA without struggles :)
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Have you tried flashfire? I'd recommend it. You can flash the ota, download the full ota from Google, and retain root and a custom recovery. Support chainfire and get the pro version. Although, functionally there is no difference.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ascertion:
Flashfire worked. I had to uninstall SuperSU and reinstall magisk and TWRP but much easier than wiping everything and flashing.

Thanks all for your help! :good:

Has anyone started to work on ROM for this phone, looking at the spec of this phone looks promising, it has a large battery capacity which is great but look at battery test for this phone it looks like stock software is not optimized, so just wondering if the community is willing to help optimize or any advise :D
[General Questions and Answers] lemotea:
the review of low configuration umidigi S2 you can see on Youtube;)
[General Questions and Answers] r0ckarong:
I've got the regular S2 for a couple of weeks now. It's a good phone with some downsides. Camera is not fantastic but good enough for everyday stuff. If you want amazing photos buy a flagship. Proximity sensor doesn't turn off screen properly while in a call, maybe fixed in future version. One of the major networks in Germany does not work for mobile data in most cases (O2 and Eplus joined and the phone can't handle the "data roaming").

Tech support is non existant. They will point you to their half chinese forums with barely any members that is spammed with press releases. Posting takes dozens of "money" that you must unlock with posts. Very unprofessional but maybe expected for such a relatively small company. There are no service addresses for repairs and the accessories market for that phone is very very limited. Barely any cases or screen protectors out there. If you break anything on this phone expect to get a new one. I have not tried yet but to get replacement parts for this seems near impossible at this point.

Other than that, screen is great for the resolution. Battery life is absolutely brilliant. I can get through a full day with using <40% battery and it lasts easily 3+ days on pure standby.

Wifi has become much better I think after the last firmware update. They are updating the phone but I wonder for how long. This is not a manufacturer that can or wants to support all of it's devices like big ones do.

Materials are good, maybe a bit slippery in the hands but all microblasted aluminium phones are like that.

Screen has a <1mm bezel between the side of the phone and the display surface but I don't care about that.

Build, to me, feels very good. Fingerprint sensor works well and fast. Android is 6.0.1 but I hope they will have an update to 7 or 8 at some point.

I don't care about benchmarks so I can't talk about that, my apps work well. Video streaming is fluid. No idea about 3D gaming I don't use my phone for that.

For that price it's a great phone imho.

This post was a cut and paste from another phone.

Now the link for the custom recovery is available. I will probably give it a try just to be able to root the phone.

As of today, there is no available custom ROM available for the umidigi s2, although you can find posts on how to revert back to the stock ROM. Those posts are also just cut and pasted from other phones sharing the same cpu

Does this phone have NFC?
[General Questions and Answers] r0ckarong:
I just tried that and while the recovery installs my phone wouldn't boot afterwards. Maybe because I have the main partition encrypted but maybe for another reason.

Also for me the screen was flipped 180 degrees probably due to a backwards display in this phone.

Still early days I wouldn't personally try it but I'm sure in time this phone will get Dev support , I had some feed back from umi on there FB page regarding update to 7/8 they said there waiting on MediaTek's to release source or sdk as this P20 chip was built around Android 6 at the time and the P25 around 7 that's why pro ships with 7 that's what they said , also mentioned an update coming with a week but more likely bug patch still on Jan 2017 security , not the best look on a 2017 phone 2015 os

[General Questions and Answers] NDbluewee:
Hi

Please check and correct me If I am wrong. According to UMI claimed that the first batch of S2 v1 come with non up gradable processor and hence, you can only maintain at Marshmallow version ie. Android 6 while S2 v2 (so called 2nd batch) can be upgraded to Android 7 (no idea to Android 8???). So guys, please check directly with UMI on this issue. I am thinking of getting the S2 Pro but would like UMI to confirm whether same issue with S2 v1 ???? Cheer s -:)
[General Questions and Answers] DoobyDroid:
I did get sim info from umi regarding diff chips that are built on certain version of Android v1 Android 6 V2 Android 7 they won't answer the question weather V1 can update to 7 all I got was there waiting for MediaTek to release source but unless big demand that will very unlikely happen as they have no need to probably
[General Questions and Answers] NDbluewee:
Below is the info extracted from Umidigi Forum lately .......

"Quote" They said the first batch of S2 will keep on Android 6 (there will be some updates, but nothing of update to Android 7). So the second batch of S2 and the S2 Pro will come with UMI OS Android 7. Anybody received handset with android 7.0 what date are the V2 or is that just referring to the Pro , mine is due 23/11 ordered 16/11 wondered if it will be V2 model with 7.0. Seems odd 2017 handset shipping with 2015 software .... Phone i received week ago got Android 6 so its V1. That will not work on the first v1 of Umidigi S2 sadly. It's made for MT6757D (S2 v2).

How ever there are phones out there already with MT6757 (Not MT6757D) will be on Android 7.0. "Unquote"

Hope this clear some of your thoughts. Thank you.

Won't be keeping it long then
[General Questions and Answers] NDbluewee:
This is what I got the reply from UMI moderator

S2 version 1 coming with Android 6 and can't be updated to higher android version.

S2 version 2 will be coming with Umidigi OS based on Android 7. Further updates are not confirmed.

S2 pro is coming with Umidigi OS based on Android 7. Further updates are not confirmed.

Correct if it's V1 then no it won't get android 7 if V2 With MT6757D then yes it will support Android 7, bit sneaky of umi really first batch cheap chip to get funds for better chips in V2 and pro Coz every one would of ordered when available first off and got the V1, sold mine on today lost a bit on it import charge mainly got back cost of phone going to get me 5T after holidays bought A p8 light 2017 for now not bad phone tbh
[General Questions and Answers] DoobyDroid:
Shame really phone itself isn't that bad nice build fantastic battery life OK camera not the best but if you were to go and buy a £140 digital camera and compare it to a £800 digital camera sure your going to see big difference, but for it to not get any major update even to 7.0 not good move from umi if anybody buying get the pro at least you will get 7.0 out of the box not to sure what there playing at with just the S2 4GB, anybody even had a S2 V2 with 7.0
[General Questions and Answers] twostroker:
Yes its such a shame, to top it off dropped my S2 today and cracked screen :( and no replacement screens anywhere. Buy cheap buy twice!

I think I'm finished with Umi so I need a replacement recommendation sub 300euro.

I originally moved from a oneplus to umi, so will be going back to my old phone as backup until then. Really have a bad taste after

1.no android 7.0 update

2.no replacement screens or parts

3. No tech support

4. No social media response to my query on Facebook

Unimidigi S2 review

I received my S2 and while it is far from perfect, it is a good deal for the money, you get a massive 5100mAh battery that will last a day nomatter how you use it, a 18:9 screen ratio that all expensive phones feature today and a very bright and vivid display that unfortunately is just HD+ (it is not as bad as it seems)

Anyway i did an unboxing and review about it, if anyone wants to check it out.

[General Questions and Answers] GigaBlaster:
Are you speaking about the screen size? S2 and S2 Pro have the same, haven't they?

I didn't want to spend too much money in this phone, it's more like a transition phone, I think I am going to buy a new one after, and I don't know yet if I can trust the Umidigi brand. But I'll try to find a way to port another working rom on the phone though.

Is there any developer here?

Avis S2 PRO - NOTICE FROM FRENCH USER

Bonjour

Je suis possesseur depuis très peu du UMIDIGI S2 PRO, et il est vraiment sympas, le défaut actuel reste la gestion des photos notamment en faible luminosité en intérieur ou cela pixelise ..dommage; mais je pense qu'en vue de la qualité technique des optiques Sony et des deux capteurs une amélioration est tout a fait possible.

J’espère que nous aurons une Maj rapidement pour permettre l'exploitation du potentiel de ce tel qui a part cela fonctionne parfaitement bien !

Ecran: ++++

Reseaux: +++++

Qualite: +++++

Look: ++++

FACE ID: +++

Photos: ++

Capacité: ++++

Le face ID fonctionne top de jour comme de nuit :) vraiment sympas !

Actuellement le seul reproche que je peux lui faire venant d'un MI 5S est donc la gestion et le traitement photo.

A suivre donc ..

Hello

I am a recent owner of the UMIDIGI S2 PRO and it is really nice, the current defect is the management of photos especially in low light indoors or pixelate ..damage but I think that in view of the technical quality of sony optics and both sensors an improvement is quite possible.

I hope we will have a maj quickly to allow the exploitation of the potential of this one which apart from it works perfectly well!

currently this is the only complaint I can make him from a MI 5S.

nice phone

Wow, I bought it at efox-shop. It's great to have this phone at this price.
[General Questions and Answers] rytterbomb:
I have an s2 Pro and can highly recommend you DO NOT BUY ONE! It is a massive pile of crap, here's why:

Unresponsive screen to touch

Very unresponsive near the edges - I. E. Where the home button is!

Screen will sometimes stop working altogether forcing you to press the power button off and on to get it to work again. Not a full power cycle to be clear on that

The camera is fairly poor

It has two lenses but only one actually works! Ypu can cover the lower and get no change in pictures lol amazing....

I haven't even got onto the hardware lock that prevents you rooting or installing anything different.

Why should you need to use anything different? The stock rom is full of bloatware that Google play reports as dangerous. It can not be disabled in anyway if you wish to use the standard rom. God only knows why UMI thought this was a good idea.... You can now download and flash a slightly striped down 'basic' version of the rom that removes a lot of the problem spyware but still has the underlying UMI OS.

Battery is large BUT without the junk apps that kill everything when the screen is off it is not too much more impressive then other phones. You have to whitelist apps to stop them being killed. I. E. You alarm might be killed off over night and not go off, your play music will just stop as the 'OS' thought it'd kill it for battery saving.... It also blocks all app startups on boot again to help preserve battery... We install apps generally as we want them to function! UMI OS thinks battery is more important!

Basically UMI have no longer got the devs that made this mess working for them from what I have read and are trying to release a pure stock Android OS. Issue is they can not beat the lock as they no longer have the people that made it working there. So attempts just brick the phones. It was said to be July it will be released but I'm yet to see any thing other than UMI actually asking us to help beat the lock! Hahahahha.... That's the challenge hopefully someone on here is looking for!

Other issues include things like music stopping as you change app, it's like the 'context switch'(?) stops the cpu running the music app.

I've probably loads of p's missing due to the screen Edge issue, so sorry about that!

Also should say UMI now just use stock android as far as I know for new phones.
