@cactuz

i checked all of them

Vignette Demo: Not compatible

Endomondo Sports tracker: Not compatible

GPS Status: Not compatible

Snowstorm weather widget: Not compatible

Sorry
[Android General] cactuz:
vzzoli: thanks for checking, I'll stay on b79 for now (I'm tired of reconfiguring homescreens etc after flashing).

Regarding 3G, it will work in any of the SIM-slots but one has to configure which one to use, only one can be used for 3G at a time:

System Settings -> Wireless & Networks (more) -> Mobile Networks -> 3G Service -> Enable 3G -> Select which card should use 3G

And then of course you have to go to:

System Settings -> SIM Management -> Data Connection -> Select the same SIM as you selected for 3G service in previous step.
[Android General] noobkidd:
im in canada with with rogers, I think that it foes not support 3g because the frequency we have here is different.

is there a more simple way to upgrade to ics, I've only started using android and all this seems a bit confusing for me.

thanks guys!
[Android General] vzzoli:
You are right.

I confused, because the sing inside of the phone shows that, but i can change the 3G to the other SIM.

IMEI will be erased once we flashed ICS for this phone.

It is better to do a IMEI backup beforehand and restore it back after flashing the new ROM.

zopo-toolbox is a useful tool for that (see attached file) - required root.

I am still looking for a workable backup Recovery for ICS ROM on this phone.

Any solution? TIA.
[Android General] carabaothai:
I have 20120419-203646 installed when i bought the phone (ANdroid 2.3.6)

Must i change ?

Will it be better ?
[Android General] vzzoli:
@carabaothai:

My opinion is the ICS brought more disadvantages than advantages for a common user.

- Complicated upgrade (IMEI restore, CWM Recovery incompatibility, etc)

- Faster battery drain

- No USB mass storage mode

- Play Store incompatibility with lot of apps

etc.

So you have to decide it, what will you use the phone for.

If you are a 'common user' and the most important requirement for you the phone's stability and full functionality, stay on 2.3.6

If you are a geek, who like debugging, and these issues are challenges what to solve, then upgrade to ICS. :o)
[Android General] carabaothai:
@vzzoli

thanks for the good answer

I like to flash roms on Windows Mobile :p

But i flashed to improve the phone (speed, battery drain) no to have more problems

But i use a lot USB mass storage mode :confused:

And the 4.03 ? What do you think about it ?

Hi Guys,

Please try to help me - I got yesterday my new ZP100 from China but have problems with the Hebrew language - can anyone give me a download link to the ROM of ETOTALK - (Android 2.4.6) They are the only one to develope the hebrew language support for this phone.

[Android General] alexw801:
Thanks to vzzoli

Thanks for advising the decision between 2.3.6 and 4.0.

I am a (new) user so may be 2.3.6 is mine. I will use it as working phone and to ensure 3G to WiFi tethering. It works excellent on T-mobile Hungary. The 3G SIM is a data SIM from modem.

I bought from pandawill, quick post from Singapore, I can recommend to anybody.

As I see everything is working as it should work. I deleted 9 Chinese apps.

But Google Market I also will install.

Can we have more simple discussion here in Budapest?

[Android General] lukacsp:
I think personally that the best solution to fix Google Market/Play is to install Oldmarket app (after rooting).

You can switch between the new and the old Market, but more importantly it will install them ;)

battery charging bug ???

Did any1 notice that, while charging the battery, it doesnt show correct info,

i use battery monitor widget to check the charging status, it charges fine till 80% which shows battery volt as 4212, guess this is the max voltage of the battery, but % shows 80 only, then it rapidly jumps form 80 to 100 in no time and there is a huge current spike on the graph.

Its 2 weeks now i hv the phone with me, have calibrated the battery too.

I hv not enabled 900mah charging option on BMW.

Been watching this thread -just got this phone for my son and had the same problem as you (came with ics, wanted to download to GB). Got that same message then the phone wouldn't start. However, I was then able to successfully flash an ICS ROM and get the phone working. I think it is very difficult to hard-brick these. You should be OK doing the same, there's several ICS ROMs linked in this thread to try.

Aslo, I have a feeling that the downgrade isn't so straogthforward. Sticking woth ICS for now!

3G Solution

3G issue of Zopo Pilot has beed solved by the following guide:

http://www.zopomobileshop.com/download/guida_risoluzione_problema_3g.pdf (ITA)

These are the steps:

0) Suggested by me :cowboy: : via Recovery execute 1 wipe cache and 2 wipe data (reset)

1) Open FlashTool and select the ...emmc_format... of the choosen ROM

suggested: http://www.4shared.com/rar/vFM_qPP7/ZP100_20120608-154131_play_ful.html but i think the other ones work well too

2) Click on "Format" button, select "format whole flash" box and then press OK

3) Connect your ZP100 via USB with the battery mounted, wait for format ok (red icon)

4) Then remove the ZP100 from USB, and remove the battery

5) Click on the "Download" icon, then connect the ZP100 via usb (without battery mounted), wait for flash finished

6) If you use the original Zopo ROM, root the ROM via pc using "zopo zp100 4.0ROOT by008" batch script.

I've been looking at this site for a while and just realised they added another B79 CWM ROM dated 28JUL12 http://chinamobiles.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=21043&d=1343653737 however it works with the ZP100 ROM perfectly. The ROM includes some handy tools and the LED flash is the brightest I've seen it for the camera and the included torch app and another flashlight app I have installed.

The ROM doesn't have a reboot to recovery option and the B79 and ZP100 Battery and Reboot to Recovery CWM addons stop the phone from booting so don't flash either.

The ROM has fixed the Home button allignment up on my B79 perfectly.
[Android General] hanu_blr:
also does this rom has the sms malware caivs.apk ?

hope the russian guys fix the flash light for zopo too with this rom image :D
[Android General] pbezza:
No, that apk isn't there (had a good look but couldn't find it).

I was using a russian ROM (B79 Cumulative Fashion v3.7.5) before this one and it had some good features but the LED was still dim. One good feature was the boot screen which had a black background with 'Zopo' in Red (or brown? I'm colour blind). The only downside for me was the additional Cyrillic letters on the phone dialer keypad.

cpu governor to "on demand"

@pbezza,

i used system tuner pro and set the cpu governor to "on demand" in cpu tweak and set to run this tweak from init.d

I see the cpugovernor script in init.d dir. After this i uninstalled the system tuner pro. But the cpu governor script is not executing. AS per cpuspy it shows 1Ghz and deep-sleep states, other freq states are not available.

Is there anything to run init.d scripts to run, or sytem tuner pro to be present ?

I guess init.d scripts shd run w/o any apps rt ??

[Android General] pbezza:
The governor gets set in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_govenor

I'm assuming the default 'performance' is compiled into the kernel so unless you compile a new kernel with your preferred govenor, you'll have to use an app. I dont think the kernel in my ROM supports init.d scripts so I can't set the govenor there either.
[Android General] pbezza:
If something goes wrong, just flash the entire firmware again and/or flash a ROM via CWM Recovery.
[Android General] pbezza:
I'm currently trying to make a new CWM ROM with init.d script capability. I was able to apply the functionality manually and set the 'ondemand' governor on startup but after adding it to a ROM, it isn't getting applied on startup. I have a feeling that it has something to do with busybox even though I've added it to the ROM as well. If I get the new ROM with init.d script capability working, I will post a link.

It says it is for B79 but I have it running on top of ZP100 firmware but I have a B79 phone. It has a GPS fix app built in so run that straight after you get the phone working. I usually get a GPS fix in less than 30 seconds and sometimes in as little as 10 seconds.
[Android General] pbezza:
@hanu_blr

Had to edit this post. Originally posted about success in adding init.d support but after posting I realised that the CPU doesn't change at all after the script changes the governor to 'ondemand' and it also prevents apps from making the governor work.

I atleast learned a bit about modifying ROMs.

[Android General] pbezza:
Although the chipsets are the same, the screen sizes, resolutions, memory size and capacitive/physical button layouts vary from phone to phone. I haven't read about the use of ROMs developed for a different MTK6575 phone so it may or may not work or the capacitive/physical buttons might be your only issue? Give it a go if you wish and report your results here but be prepared to reflash your original firmware.

@pbezza,

am following this forum.china-iphone.ru forum for sometime, am using google translator and its not clear. recently there was a new firmware from star B79, which can be flashed on to zp100, but i see flash led burnt on zp100, it not clear from google transaltor. flash led got burn with original start b79 firmware or there are some modified frm based on start b79 for zp100 too, like Taiwan101_STAR-B79_ICS_V.09 _Lekha_signed.zip.

Am confused :confused: whcih will burn the flash leds, and in lekha fw, is the led bright or dim ?

Since u hv both b79 and zp100, guess u also flashed the b79 image on zp100, and mentioned that LEDs are bright, did u face the LED burnt issue ???
[Android General] pbezza:
I will have a look at the new firmware and report back. Maybe the translation of "burnt" isn't correct. It might actually mean that the LED is lit or illuminated?

I actually only have a B79 but am using the ZP100 firmware with the Taiwan101_STAR-B79_ICS_V.09 CWM Recovery ROM. Because that ROM is compatible with the ZP100 firmware on my B79, it might also mean that it is compatible with the ZP100 firmware on a ZP100. I was hoping someone would try it and report here mainly because the LED flash is extremley bright with that ROM. The ROM comes with a few apps which I didn't like so I just deleted them before flashing it to my phone.

Here is a link for the Circle battery with percentage and power menu for the Taiwan101_STAR-B79_ICS_V.09 CWM ROM http://ge.tt/8TC6QrL/v/0?c

Confirmed, this works with the Taiwan101_STAR-B79_ICS_V.09 CWM ROM.

Do you have a direct link to the page on the forum.china-iphone.ru where they talk about "LED burnt"?

Edit:

Read below for changes in the CWM ROM - Taiwan101_STAR-B79_ICS_V.09 _Lekha_signed.zip

It is designed with the ZP100 in mind (and Russians) and not the B79. On my B79, the Home button is misaligned to the left again. This was fixed in the original Taiwan101_STAR-B79_ICS_V.09 CMW ROM. The LED flash is really bright but the notification LED still doesn't work for me. The boot logo (logo.bin) and Bootanimation (Bootanimation.zip) has changed. I will take the Advanced Power Menu and Round Battery % from this ROM and add it to the original Taiwan101_STAR-B79_ICS_V.09 CWM ROM and reflash as there are no other useful features in this ROM for me..

Changes listed at http://forum.china-iphone.ru/viewtopic.php?p=627289#p627289:

+ Advanced POWER MENU

+ Search T9 in Russian

+ Patch to the large photos in contacts

+ Fix marketa and geolocation (itself a market, too, is the last one)

+ Replaced the logo

+ Replaced butanimatsiya

+ Ad Blocking

+ Round Battery in%

+ 4.7 from the radio module

The size of the internal memory of 2.5 Gb (as in the firmware from 8.6)

Added some applications that can be removed through the application menu

I have given up on ics for the zp100 because of all the small issues adding up to major frustration. I came to the conclusion that this phone is not a good candidate for ics and have flashed back to the original gingerbread and am very happy with it. Everything works great and call quality is excellent compared to ics. My lady friend in Laos can now hear me quite clearly (and I hear her quite clearly) whereas with ics it was rare to be able to talk clearly at any time. Ringing Laos from Thailand using a Lao sim card (local call fee) is now just like ringing someone in my own location on a Thai sim card. They will have to come up with better ics firmware for this phone to get me back off gingerbread.

Hello - could you confirm how you flashed back to gingerbread please. My son's ZP100 model came with ICS installed and I have been unable to flash back to gingerbread. I get error messages relating to NVRAM and partition table (can't quote exacctly at the moment as the phone is not here). Doing some research I think there may be an extra step (format?) before flashing the gingerbread ROM. If you could confirm which ROM, flash tool and process you used I'd be very grateful. Thanks :)

[Android General] hideki_:
so the Taiwan101 rom only has the problem of notification led not working? it seems to be a better rom for the zp100 only if that could be finally fixed.
[Android General] pbezza:
The notification LED on my B79 has never worked. It came with ICS already installed and I haven't tried flashing Gingerbread. I have been thinking about flashing Gingerbread just to see if the notification LED would work with that firmware. If it works then there is definitely a possibility to fix it in ICS. The only time I ever see any notification LED activity is when I 'cold start' the phone. When I do this, the notification LED will temporarily be a very dull Red which says to me that it isn't broken.

Other than the notification LED and the Microphone during calls, my B79 is brilliant. The battery lasts more than 2.5 days.

In regards to the microphone, my voice is slightly muffled at the other end even after mucking around with the microphone settings. The microphone will record audio perfectly via recording apps. I recorded a few calls to see how I sounded and even I can't understand every word I said.

Edit:

Found the below ZP100 LED fix.

http://files.china-iphone.ru/download.php?file=234update_LED_for_3.7.4_250712_by_TestICQ_SIGNED.zip

It might fix the LED flash for ZP100 and B79 owners? The CWM Recovery patch will replace /system/framework/services.jar

Source http://forum.china-iphone.ru/viewtopic.php?p=624909#p624909

On page 130, they are talking about replacing the LEDs with Type 3528 surface mount LEDs which are a lot brighter than the ZP100 and B79 LEDs. Should be fairly easy to desolder and solder on replacement LEDs.
[Android General] Boleyn:
Hello - thanks for the reply - no I am trying to flash the stock gingerbread ROM using the SP Flash Tool. I'll give more detail when I next have access to the phone, but when I try to flash from ICS to gingerbread I am getting errors. From memory I tried both "Download" and "Firmware Update" from within the SP Flash Tool, and got different errors in each case.Certainly in one case I got the error reported in post #397......... "BROM ERROR : S_DL_GET_DRAM_SETTING_FAIL (5054)".

Going from ICS to GB should I be selecting "Download" or "Firmware Update" once the scatter file is loaded?

I have also read that (for other phones) it is necessary (when downgrading) to select "Auto Format Nand Flash -> Format whole flash except Bootloader and NVRAM Bin Region " before flashing firmware.....that sounds dangerous though!

I will have the phone again at the weekend so can provoide more details on exact error codes.
[Android General] Waxwrong:
My phone came with gingerbread but that should not matter. The directions have already been given since you posted. I had to re-install some drivers and I used pdanet as well. Backup your IMEI before you flash. Once you have the drivers installed correctly you should be able to flash the gingerbread firmware. Try without battery first. The market fix and root guide on colonelzap blog site will do the trick for you as well. As pointed out already, all the files and firmware are available on zopomobile.com site (not the shop site). If you have problems you should close the flash tool, reboot both the phone and your pc and start again.
