last answer is 15th April 2014, so it's probably pointless, but I will give it a try.

I have one zp100 still working but with broken digitizer (not working touch screen).

I could give it to someone and make it useful, but I cant find a digitizer. I think I there is none in aliexpress or ebay.

Has anyone a clue?

Thanks.
[Android General] miazza:
This device is very old and you can make a try on the zopo mobile site.

I guess there are no spare parts.

For the same reason i have thrown my ZP200 in the basket a few years ago...

This is the end of china phones .... they are good for a few years and after that there is no more support.

They cost much less but finally you need to change them more frequently ... it is a choice :)
[Android General] TziMmysGr:
I dont think that even in a non Chinese devise, someone could fidn a spare part after all these years...

Thank yo for your answer though....

Hello jbctiong, how do you bring up that band mode selection screen? I have not seen it on my B79. Does it exist on ICS?

Thanks!
[Android General] jbctiong:
Through mobileuncle/zopo toolbox > Engineer Mode(MTK) > BandMode

You need to have either toolbox installed.(see post #31)
[Android General] tennyleaz:
I have a B79 with ICS ROM, but this CWM recovery is not working for me.

Can anybody help?
[Android General] cleanlines:
Thankyou @jbctiong

I have installed the toolbox and can configure that various bands as in your screen shot. Even when the 850mhz WCDMA band is turned on in the baseband the B79 will not detect the local 850mhz network. This leads me to believe the B79 and ZP100 have different antennae.

[Android General] StuC6:
I have three phones. Two phones are running android 4.0.3 build number B79 20120512-110154, and the GPS works. The other is running build number B79 20120428-141513, and the GPS does NOT work. Check your build number if you're having problems. Is there a link to the 0512 build?

Hi all,

I got the English version of the IMEI-tool from Jessica, so here it goes:

http://depositfiles.com/files/wi41lcuvb

I've decompiled it and had a look at the code to make sure it wasn't malware/virus, and it looked alright from what I could see.

Also I tried to run it and it is in English (mostly :p ), I didn't try to update my IMEI with it because I already have the numbers I want there.

Hi, I've recently bought a Zopo ZP100 with ICS pre installed. I've also have a problem with uncompatible apps on my phone. Is it possible to upload the 2.3.6 Build Prop file to see if there is any difference between the two rom (ICS and gingerbread?)

I do not know if this is an official ICS rom release but it comes pre rooted and with working playstore.

gps problem with android 4.0.3

Hi,

I got a zp100 from my chinase friend. The phone arrived with Android 4.0.3

I can not connect to Win XP with USB and gps does not work.

I am very bad in IT things could you suggest me what should I do? Is it possible to download the old version of Android to this phone to avoid these problems or....

Légyszi valaki segítsen, mert nagyon szép telefon, de a PC kapcsolat és gps nélkül nem vagyok lelkes. Én nem akartam a frissítést, de ők ezzel csak egy pluszt akartak....

Olvastam, hogy be kell valahol kapcsolni a mobile tools-ban a gps-t, a settingsben be van pipálva, ez azt jeletni? Nincs külön iconom csak egy kínai változat, ami netet igényel.

Working Full Google Play Store

HI, I've found a guide on the chinese zopo forum for the Google Play and the Chrome Bookmarks Sync, I've just tried and it works! the only problem is that you have to hard reset your phone... :(

The original guide come from here:

http://bbs.zopomobile.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=16050&extra=page=2 (from point 6)

Fist of all your Zopo must have Root and Root Explorer.

Donwload this files http://www.4shared.com/rar/VJC2ZW02/GoogleFix.html? and put all the xml files under /etc/permissions, and with Root Explorer change the permissions of all the files like this:

For the Chrome Sync copy this file http://www.4shared.com/android/k8tMvUqp/ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter.html? into /system/app and change permission with Root Explore like this: rw-r--r--

now hard reset your phone from android setting, when it's completely rebooted add a google account and try Play Store, if you can find Google Maps... it works :cool:
[Android General] drewmerc:

i've followed the same process but i didnt need to do any hard reset. I've just disconnected my battery, reconnected it, rebooted the phone: it than gave me a message just like it was the first time i've started the phone but i didnt need to do any hard reset and it all worked just fine. I started with the original Zopo ICS rom with root permission.

Just for curiosity, now that it all works to me, is there any reason why i should use the b79 rom?

FULL GOOGLE PLAY STROE

Thanks for sharing the info.

May be I am not on fresh installation, I need to clear the existing data in the following apk in order for the method to work.

1st, Playstore and followed by 2nd, Google service framework.

I need to force close, clear cache and clear data for the above 2 programs.

After that all works fine. Thanks.

update1： Getting error 921. Unable to update/download program but able to see all apks.

update2: The error could be due to double google accounts that I have installed resulting in Google PlayStore logged into different account while changing to new settings. I removed and left with the first account and reload Playstore and all apks can be seen and downloaded again now.

After which I added back my second account but the account setting used remains as the first account and it is working fine.

This could only happens to multiple Google account users.

WIFI settings and zopomobile tools

Got this phone a few days ago and I'm really enjoying it.

Received with ICS, I promptly rooted it and fixed google play market and AGPS.

I have a couple of questions about it:

WIFI settings:

I can't find a way to choose wifi networks, enter a hidden SSID, etc. How can I do that ?

Zopomobile tools:

1) I see "crack operator gprs lock", what's that for ?

2) AppToSD tool lets me choose among auto, internal only, external.

How do I translate them ?

auto: apps will be saved partly in 512 ROM, partly in embedded 4GB SD

internal only: all apps in 512 ROM

external: all apps in embedded 4GB SD

thanks !

b79 android 4.0.3 ics

I have the B79 phone. after upgrading to ics the touch is not the same touch i was on the 2.3.6 os anyone experienced anything like this ?
[Android General] tennyleaz:
Yes, touch seems much slower.

I use APEX launcher, helps some parts of smoothing.
[Android General] toystory:
Use it more than a week

I change back to 2.3.6 because there is a firmware that can use the internal memoery as the base memory (512m to 2G) and the external SD card as the SD card, which is much smooth and reliable than before

Conclusion : it is a phone worth to buy (got mine at RMB$1099)
[Android General] demon9:
you mean to make the rom to ram ? how did you do that ?!

there must be a fix for this. cus other's mtk6575 run with the ics fast

There's a (official?) Zopo ZP100 0608 ROM just released:

http://115.com/file/dpanfqfe

Features:

Merge /sdacrd to /data, total about 2.5GB.

USB mass storage mode.

Some bug fixs.

I will try this on Star B79.
[Android General] stephenju:
I don't think any of the sdcard merge ROMs is officially released one. Zopo's own download page still points to a version from 0510.
[Android General] carabaothai:
Impossible for me to download ...:confused:
[Android General] tennyleaz:
It is posted by admin on ZOPO's (official) forum, so this may be real.

Anyway, I just flashed it on my B79. Working fine as described, /sdcard is merged to /data, about 2.5GB /data space.

Build version is:

ZP100 20120608-154131

source: (Chinese)

http://bbs.zopomobile.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=17708
[Android General] stephenju:
Well. They allow just about anybody and everybody to post just about anything and everything there. If you know what I mean. :)

But yes, that's posted by someone with some semi-official capacity there but I still don't think it's officially sanctioned ROM. But we the tweakers are the adventurous bunch anyway. :)
[Android General] cambridge79:
really interested in this Ram/Rom swap thing, can you explain a bit more about it? is the internal memory much slower than base memory?

second question:

i've experienced some issue with the GPS unit. It works, it now fix fast with A-GPs after i fixed it but i cant get a stable signal. I mean, sometimes it gets a 10 meters error than it goes to 60meters, than back to 10 meters, and the result is that i can use it with software like sygic but it's almost useless with others softwares like endomondo or oruxmaps where the log that gps produces is always a zig zag line even when i go on a perfect straight line. As anyone experienced it and found a solution?
[Android General] carabaothai:
Is it possible to have the direct link for this ROM because i no read chinese and google translate no very good ;)

Ok it works on this adress http://115.com/file/dpanfqfe with the green button (blue no works and orange must sign in i think) but very very very slow 3.5ko/s !!! :(

If you have any other 115 link you wish me to make a mirror, just let me know.

Hi again

I download all Zopo ZP100 related files from www.zopomobile.com/xiazai.php and package them into one zip file and mirror it in multiupload, here it is :

Original : http://www.zopomobile.com/xiazai.php

Mirror : http://www.multiupload.nl/T3NO5U3SAZ

It is quite big though, it contains :

1. Original Flash Tool

2. Original Android 2.3.6 ROM for Zopo ZP100

3. Original Android 4.0.3 ROM for Zopo ZP100

4. Original Upgrade to Android 4.0 Instruction (in chinese) + ROM + Required files (such as driver etc.)

5. Original Instruction Guide in chinese

(basically all above are each button clicked in that page)

since it is downloaded from www.zopomobile.com\xiazai.php (not including the bbs.zopomobile.com) so expect that most thing is in chinese. However since ROM is multiple language, so feel free to download the package. You can also download for collection. I made this because downloading from 115 is difficult for most guys out there, but its fine for me.

Regards

innosia
[Android General] carabaothai:

[Android General] innosia:
hi there, thanks too

I actually do not have Zopo ZP100 but I am planning to buy one and still researching it based on customer respond, so may i know how satisfied are you with Zopo ZP100? Is there anything bothering you regarding the phone? for example

1. Is there dead pixel

2. Is there hardware defect on your device?

3. How often do you heard about the hardware defect on this device?

4. Why do you buy this instead of Zopo Z200? Isn't that 3D?

5. How is the battery life?

6. What do you think the upcoming dual core MTK6577?
[Android General] carabaothai:
I answer in Quote ;)

i am very satisfied with this phone. Not expensive but very good. just 1 day to understand, remove chinese, root etc ...

I have the same issue with GPS unit and i could not find any solution yet, what is your condition about solution?
[Android General] mpaq99:
I think this is a bug common to all MTK phone using that same GPS chip (different chip from CPU one). I noticed on previous MTK6573 phone the same thing and now on ZP100 also (but they use same GPS chip). The problem is seen when Data connection is used while GPS is in use, then GPS gets crazy for a while and goes back OK afterwards.

Try to disable Data connection and WiFi too, you should see better GPS tracking... this is annoying that you need to disable Data connection to get stable GPS on these MTK base phones... I hope next GPS chip revision will do better...
[Android General] hugo81:
Thanks for your explanation! I will disable data connection test!

Is there any software to solve this GPS error?!?!?

[Android General] carabaothai:
Same for me. But i use 2.3.6

Totally black. Impossible to take picture at night or at home

Thumbnails : i have a folder thumbnails in sdcard/DCIM folder. The folder thumbnails take a lot of place of my sdcard (400-500 Mo !!). I erase thumbnails but come back everytime.

Is it possible to erase definitively the creation of this thumbnails or to move definitively on external sdcard ?
[Android General] rprato:
i was wondering how this chinese company spend this useless led on this phone. It would be better to remove it in order to reduce the price,or definitelly make a decent flash device.
[Android General] suoko:
I agree, it's almost useless. Front colored ones looks more powerful :D Great strategy to sell the phone though.

One question:

Is there any way to install more apps? Atm internal rom space gets filled very fast tdespite a2sd
[Android General] tennyleaz:
You can try the ZP100 0608 (official??) ROM. On page 15.

It has about 2.5GB /data space.

About the LED, my LED is bright enough on GB roms, but gets very weak after ICS.

I think it is rom related......
