Just downloaded a tool from play store called Density Changer, it kind of works, I tried various densities to see if I could get to 1280X720, the current density is 320, I tried 220, and it got to something like 1250X720, but the icons got quite small; so I changed it back to 320.

I suppose this is something I have to live with for the time being.

Thanks.:)

Hi,

I'm a newbie and I have big problems with ZP950H mtk 6589, the phone lock himself and I'm desperate. I have android 4.1.2, build number 20130219-200546. I don't know anything about root or install new frimware, any help for dummies is VERY apreciated. In short moments when phone work, the mic is disastrous, if I call somebody he don't hear me well, when the call end the phone lock himself. Sometime I can't initiate any call, but I can receive. I try different sim cards and different operators same problems. Even I try to use only as a tablet i still have problems.

Sorry for my english I'm not a native speaker.

You should retain your current rom, but if you've data on them, it will be wiped out do to switching you storage from 4GB to 16GB.

After I flashed everything from the other post, I forgot to flash the EBR1 and EBR2, so I was left with only 4GB rom. I used the rom for a while because I have a 32GB sd card and didn't notice the missing storage. I did a backup of my files through Helium, then flashed the EBR1 and EBR2. Once it was done in seconds, my rom was good as new, like I first got it with no data on it, except for the ones in the external sd card. :D

I actually like it, but you can flash only the boot file with the SP Flash Tool from the previous rom 4.1.2. Go to SP Flash Tool, click the scatter file, chose your 4.1.2 rom, uncheck all the files except the boot file, click download, you're done! :cool:

will ZP950H rom work on Caesar A9800?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m2b999:
In general, roms can't be switched between brands or even devices within the same brand. This is not the case with Zopo as ZP810 rom can be imported to ZP950 or ZP950+.

Some say roms can be switched between Zopo and Ceaser, but I would recommend asking someone who tried it. Maybe [MENTION=461614]Lovetz[/MENTION] or [MENTION=4945206]ghost45[/MENTION] can help in here.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derchrome:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m2b999:
If I'm not mistaken, ZP810 rom can work on ZP950, but [MENTION=4945206]ghost45[/MENTION] can confirm on that...

The only advantage I see (if possible) is to fix problems (3G issues, screen resolution, storage)...

If you're asking about advantages of ROMs, that's a totally different story...

In nutshell, they can range from tweaking your device (to get more out of it), change themes (pure aosp vs. OTHERS), get more out of battery life (major choice), get rid of bloatware... etc.

I'm ready to buy ZOPO ZP990.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cuneiform:
Be careful and try to find out all you can from the knowledge available at present!

A friend of mine has bought either ZP980 or ZP990. Now, he will throw it away, as nothing

meets the specs: the internal storage shows up 2Gb instead of 16Gb, it's also getting hot

after working sometime with some apps loaded, at night hours it does consume energy instead of sleeping,

GPS is working badly, it consumes too much energy for that battery, too, he claims (though 2 batteries

have been supplied).

At other instances I have read, they say that the plastic general cover is now more thin than formerly (say, ZP950),

so someones are looking for new covers that got broken meanwhile.

Also, new models do have plastic instead of glass, so you will surely need a protection layer above the screen.

Clearly, newer models have 4 kernels and much more storage (RAM) inside for nearly the same price as before;

they do have to become cheaper in production. However, the quality may be getting down.

For working with a flash tool.

--- The internal storage unified to 2,43 Gb, only one SD-card seen, the battery profile with percentage introduced, camera software much bettered (from LEWA), hosts added (adware cutting in apps).

I emailed Zopo-Mobile-Shop 3 times and they didn't bother to reply to any. So I fixed it myself with 'FANTASTIC ELASTIC' Flexible Glue which creates a flexible high strength bond. As both these parts are rocker switches, carefully put a small amount of glue on the centre post of the rocker switch and another spot where it sits on the housing. Carefully position insitu with tweezers. When home, hold firmly in place for intitial set (about 2 minutes) then leave to cure fully for at least an hour.

Hi I am completely new to Android so please be kind with my questions.

Have to reboot phone regularly due to lost of wifi & sometimes going to settings will crash. This is not wifi router issue because my other devices worked flawlessly. Only the Zopo ZP950 has the wifi issue.
