[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pearlian:
Hi everyone, especially the writer of the quoted post, i know this is a old post but i just want to tell how to install the driver on Windows 8.1 64 bit in case if someone ended up here.

Windows 8.1 64 bit won't allow users to install unsigned driver like the driver he attached (Actually, the driver is signed, but i forget the reason why windows recognize it as unsigned driver. Please refer to the previous post). So, to make windows allow that, use this instruction:

http*://www*.howtogeek.*com/167723/how-to-disable-driver-signature-verification-on-64-bit-windows-8.1-so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/

nb: remove the star. i'm new here, so i can't post a link.

After you follow the instruction, then install the driver as the guy described.

I've tried this method, and it's work!

You need to put the Settings.apk in system/app with root browse or root explorer.

If you will be ask to overview chose yes and reboot the phone.

Received mine a week. The phone goes pretty good. The only problem battery sometimes is heated .

More information about sensors in image.

And rom 4.1.2 custom ->www[dot]needrom[dot]com/mobile/zopo-zp900h-2/

original 4.1.1-> www[dot]needrom[dot]com/mobile/zopo-zp900h/
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] p0neyto:
Mine is pretty good too,

The pros :

- large screen

- very good perfs

- complete package with flip cover, two batteries, screen protection, headset

- CWM and ROM from Zopo work

The cons :

- the speaker are a little weak, you need to increase the volume in engineer mode

- the camera, like many smartphone, is too dark. You need to adjust the exposition or take pictures in perfect conditions

- GPS tweak is needed too, but it's the same on any MTK device

So in a word, at this point, it satisifed me.

I'll contact Zopo to obtain the source code of their ROMS, we need it ! A custom kernel should be a good point.

Hello,

i have my Caesar A9600 from 2 weeks.

Great phone, but i have a problem : the Wifi Mac address change each time i activate Wifi on the phone.

And i use the mac address filter on my Internet Box :(

p0neyto, do you have the same problem with the ZP910 official rom ?

Thanks.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] p0neyto:
Nope, I tested the WiFi card even on Caesar stock ROM (repacked ROM from Zopo) and on Zopo zp900H official ROM.

Under the both version I have the same MAC address...

Maybe the upgrade to the latest version (Android 4.1.2) resolve your problem ... take it on the Zoppo Baidu page (link on the first post).

--------------------------------------------------------/

You can try to read the method to resolve that issue on the Zopo ZP810/ZP800H also known as Hero 7500+.

www[dot]4shared[dot]com/zip/1jIlbJH8/ZP810_wifi_MAC_address.html

Are you sure that you have a ZP900H/ZP910/9600 ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ocanen:
:S I not have a problem (I have this mobile) and it is rare, have not you any aplication what change the mac address of the Wifi or aplication of the network ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Ieup_Fr:
Yes, it's a Caesar A9600.

No app installed that can change Mac Address.

I will try to install the latest version from Chinese site.

Is this a mult-language version, and without chinese apps ?

And because i'm a real newbie, where can i find a method to flash an official rom for this phone, with all the steps i have to do ?

PS : i have read that the ZP810 have the same problem on Zopomobileshop forum.

Android 4.2.1 for Zopo ZP900H/ZP910, Caesar A9600, Mlais MX36 + TWRP + Root

Jaynes from Zopo technical group released an 4.2.1 ROM:

http://bbs.zopomobile.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=47239

It comes with the 2.5 GB data mod, HDR Cam and CWM. You can use CWM or flash TWRP - you will need it for rooting.

You will need installed ADM- and VCOM-Drivers, see Gizbeat Combo. Be sure to use version v3.1308.0.125 of SP FlashTool.

No Root: Just flash ROM with SP FlashTool v3.1308.0.125

Root:

- flash ROM with SP FlashTool v3.1

- flash TWRP

- in TWRP go to => ADVANCED => Fix Permission

After restart => Update the SUPERSU and enjoy

OR

- download SuperSU, put in on the SD and install in TWRP

Sources

I uploaded the ROM to another server, because the chinese server is really slow.

Caesar A9600 MT6589

Hi I purchased this mobile the Caesar A9600 MT6589 from a Chinese site (mcbub - the worst site I came across in my entire existence) and they are stating that the phone cannot be rooted.

I am a bit afraid to put the original firmware or ROM from z0p0 as I don't wish to brick the phone. is there anything I can check to see if the original ROM fits my mobile?

Cheers
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] tommes-d:
I have read in several forums, that the Zopo ZP900H/ZP910 and die Caesar A9600 are identical. An that Caesar is the cheaper OEM brand of Zopo. My Caesar A9600 runs with zero problems with the Zopo Firmware.

Install CWM or TWRP, make a backup of the stock firmware and feel free testing.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] climjr:
how do you flash to a new firmware? is it by using SPtools or by CWM?

Is there step by step of flashing?

Solved: SP_Flash_Tool Thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] slim_thumb:
I received the ZP900H last week. It came with firmware 130226 (4.1.2). I actually downloaded the firmware from the manufacturer website and rooted it before I get the phone. I found this firmware quite sluggish.

Then I know about the Jaynes ROM. The Jaynes 130319 (4.1.2) ROM definitely feels faster and smoother than the 0226. It is rooted and has CWM. I only have one complaint - web browser scrolling (stock and Dolphin) is quite slow. It seems to resist my finger moving the screen, and there is no scroll inertia. Pinch zoom is fast and smooth, much better than the previous FW.

I also tried out Jaynes 4.2.1 firmware but I don't like it - feel like I am back to the sluggish 0226 FW. Btw the Jaynes 4.2.1 firmware does NOT have root (no superuser / supersu app or su binaries) - I have to unpack system.img and add su binaries myself.

Overall the performance is good for the price of the phone - full HD videos (web browser Flash video or downloaded videos on MX player) have no trouble at all. It does NOT feel any faster than my Galaxy Note N7000 with the dual core Exynos 4210 and Mali 400. I don't have a quad core GN2 to compare. One minor thing is that the Developer options are incomplete (in fact you can only access three items - stay awake, USB debugging, allow mock location). I prefer access to all the tweaks.

Battery life with the 4.1.2 FW is OK - wifi access to the internet playing youtube or vimeo flash videos last about 4-4.5 hours.

Ummm...so yeah...make a long story short I got a MIZ Z5 today (same as the reset of these phones) but the SIM's are working properly...I'm thinking due to some software bug.

So I did a factory reset from within recovery...still no go...I try to enter recovery again and for some reason it's all in Chinese now...

I have no idea why as I didn't do anything other than reset/wipe cache. Any advice? Any way to flash a different recovery from within Android without root?

I saw the "tutorial" on the first page but have NO idea what to do. Could not have been more vague. I'm not a complete noob (I've rooted/flashed/etc my Note and EVO 3D) but I have no idea where to even start with the steps given.

Any help would be appreciated...as it sits now my phone works like 10% of the time (when it decides the SIM card can work) and really want to check all my options before having to return/dispute on PayPal.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] tommes-d:
You can flash another recovery with SP Flash Tool, but you will need to have ADB- and VCOM-drivers installed properly before. Have a look at

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ZopoUser:
Yes,here the same problem.Is there any info about this bug ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] djkail:
Yes. You have to enter engineer mode and then, go to network selecting and switch gsm/wcdma (wcdma prefered) to gsm/wcdma (auto). You are done!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ZopoUser:
Sorry for the usefull post before,here the solution (it seems)

Patch final, after the fix 3G .. for all models Quad Core ZOPO Zp810 Zp950+

by some tests conducted in accorodo with ZOPO ITALY and regarding the 3G we have verified that to further improve the navigation must make a change over Mobile Uncletools.

In fact, even if in settings -> other -> mobile networks -> 3G network preferences are GSM / WCDMA (auto) fix the locks parameter to "WCDMA preferred" creating problems of navigation in areas not well covered.

It should therefore come into Engineer Mode (MTK) -> Network and select Selecting GSM / WCDMA (auto) instead of "WCDMA preferred". Of course, you must restart the phone. The improvements are sensitive.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gbl08ma:
I'm looking forward to buy one of these phones. Reading through the 4pda Russian forums with the help of Google Translate, looks like many people are reporting screen flickering issues. For some the problem goes away on low brightness, for others it persists even on low brightness. Some people say this problem is solved by updating to the 130319 ROM (which [MENTION=3822682]slim_thumb[/MENTION] too says it's better), but for others it seems it still persists.

Do you have/had this problem?

Now to problem number two... one or two people also said the screen would constantly turn on and off, looks like this is a proximity sensor problem, it needs to be calibrated. From what I could understand, one can calibrate it in a "factory menu" but I'm not sure if this is the MTK engineering menu one can get by dialing *#*#3646633#*#*. Please, could someone with a ZP900H (or equivalent) see if there's such an option for calibrating the proximity sensor in that menu?

And to the third problem... looks like the microphone not working issue is quite a common one too. Is this really a hardware defect, or can it be solved through firmware updating?

From reading through 4pda, it also seems some of the patches for fixing ZP950+ issues also work for fixing ZP900H issues such as the automatic brightness one. Do you know if this is true?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] JasonTama:
I have mic problem. Reflashing the original firmware did not solve the problem. Is there an english firmware update available to try?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gbl08ma:
I think that you can change the language of the ROMs that have Chinese by default, on the Settings... if that's what you're asking.

ROMs for ZOPO devices are here: http://pan.baidu.com/share/home?uk=4214607308&third=15

The ZP900H 20130226-145140_PC.zip seems to work fine for many people... but to me it seems the mic problem is hardware defect, on the contrary of the screen problem which many people seem to have solved by disabling the live wallpaper and/or installing a different ROM and/or installing a different launcher.

Let's hope I'm lucky enough to avoid the microphone problem...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] JasonTama:
Thank you. I need to ask you where you read of other microphones problem. I was believing to be the only one with that problem. Maybe i can find a solution
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gbl08ma:
Well from what I understood with Google Translate, some people here mention the mic problem is more or less usual. But maybe they are talking of your case itself:

http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=442003&st=0

I don't know if you said this already or not, but does the mic not work in calls or just about everywhere in the OS? If you try to record a memo, does it work?

Also, try setting the microphone volume to the maximum as it is explained here:

http://www.zopomobileshop.com/zopo-...le-phone-mic-loudspeaker-and-ringtone-volume/
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] JasonTama:
Thank you very much. The phone is already packed and ready to travel back to china. I am affected by both screen flickering and internal microphone not working. I was willing to give the mobile another try, but it seems to me that microphone problem i's a hardware fault. Microphone is not working everywhere on the phone (audio record plays white noys). The only way to get audio input is attaching stock earphone with integrated mic.

However, i will send the mobile back to china, hoping they will solve my problems
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gbl08ma:
If the problem persists with the new phone, don't forget to try changing the engineering mode settings for the mic sound level.

I received my Caesar A9600 today. Everything seems to work well. Already installed TWRP and rooted. I received two batteries, which I bought as being of 2300 mAh but on their cover they say they are of 3000 mAh. Still haven't performed a full charge cycle but it took two hours to go from 50% to 15% charge, with WiFi on and occasionally GPS, with a two-minute phone call.

The main camera is very good, it can record at 1080p in g3p format with this ROM I'm using. I’m using the original 4.1.2 ROM and I don't plan on changing unless a 4.2 ROM comes out that is as stable as this one, with the same battery consumption.

The second camera has a grainy image but it seems to be of 5 megapixels.

Hi guys.

I received my ZP900H a few days ago.

Everything works good except a big issue : the screen. :(

Do you notice the poor contrast of the screen ?

The colours are faded, especially where you are not in front of the screen.

The viewing angle are awfull.

I don't understand why Zopo put a so bad screen on this ZP910.

I can't believe this screen is IPS.

I read the same thing on the ZP950.

Only the ZP810 seems to have a good screen, and maybe the ZP980.

I had before a S2 (wonderfull screen), and a Jiayu G3 (which have a very good screen).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gbl08ma:
I think the viewing angle of my ZP900H is good enough. I don't have another IPS screen to compare, but at a 25 degrees angle, the contrast is still good even though the colors change a bit. The screen is also readable when one is outside, as long as the brightness is at its maximum level.

Hey, just ordered this phone a week ago, been using iPhone 4 for past 2 years, but it's time to go back to Android and from all the options a good dual sim phone is what I need. Are there any good ROM's for this phone? Cyanogenmod or MIUI, although the stock Android these days is more than ok. Been away from Android world for 2 years so I don't really know anything anymore :silly:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gbl08ma:
There are no custom ROMs for this phone, at least not yet (the most "custom" thing you'll find are ROMs built by some person on the Italian division of Zopo, at least as far as I can understand). The stock ROM on my phone is quite clean, without any Chinese apps or noticeable branding (but maybe it's because mine is the OEM verision), I'd say it is very close to stock Android plus some of the usual Google apps.

While there is no Cyanogenmod or MIUI, rooting is possible and there are custom recoveries available for download.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] phiit:
Ok, thanks for the info! From what I've understood from different sources is that custom ROM aren't even needed anymore? Android itself is pretty sleak itself so I don't think there is any need to mod it if the stock ROM is working well. Can't wait to get my hands on this thing :good:
