biobio76, many many thanks...

I finally got it all right... I had to overcome some problems, but it was successful

- I had to first flash CWM in order to be able to backup the NVRAM / IMEI.

- The CWM you gave me was somehow corrupted, just downloaded a newer version (v6032) and it worked. Also downloaded a newer version of supersu (v1.5.1), but it was not necessary.

- I flashed the CWM along with the 7GB EBR - I had to format the partition through windows (FAT32), otherwise the phone did not recognise it (Phone Storage).

- I did a Full Backup throught TWRP and through MDT. On MDT I needed to push the ROOT button in order to be able to do that.

I am listing all of the things I had to do that were not trivial for me from my very noob and dumb perspective, maybe it will help others.

So now I have an NVRAM and Full Backuped Android 4.2.1 Zopo C2 - with 7GB partition, TWRP recovery and supersu installed...

biobio76, I guess without you it would have been taking me a week to get there - gathering all the info you gave me is taking a lot of time and without the confidence of doing it right.

With your help it took me only 2 nights (3-4 hours each)... THANKS, THANKS, THANKS...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] biobio76:
YES MAN!!! you did it!! :) fiuuuu

sorry for the CWM corruption link...but you solved the issue by yourself with v6032...good!!

you could also have generated your "own" CWM via MTD....did not tell you as there are so many options you can modify in getting your goal...

but anyway, you did it, I am proud of you man!

ciao!

Biobio, i installed adb drivers just because of your help..!! Thanks.

1. Now how to check if i installed VCOM drivers Properly or not.

2. If i open adb.exe via CMD and and type 'adb devices' command its showing bunch of numbers ..it means i set ADB & fastboot properly in c/sdk/adb.exe? ( not adb drivers)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] biobio76:
if your ADB drivers are installed correctly, then activate USB Debugging, plug your phone to PC ( WIN7 or XP )

run MTD DROID TOOL and the program will show info of your phone....that's it

VCOM drive are usually or better, lucily install automatically when you try to flash the phone with SP FLASH TOOL, you don't really need

to install it....

search on google/youtube how to install VCOM and you will see planty of video showing it as well as showing how a correct flash is by video tutorial...

Thanks biobio,

Now i want to try different roms, try xposed framework.

But before that first what i have to do with my phone is -

.Root it

.Install CWM recovery

.Create CMW backup of rom

.create rom backup using sp flash tool/mtk droid tool

.backup imei no.

Suggest me anything what i forgot.

Or what i am doing extra.

Biobio , also i able to see my phone in mtk droid tools when usb debuging on that means drivers are installed also if i type adb devices in cmd it shows bunch of numbers.

Then my question is now sp flash tool will flash the phone when phone is off?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] biobio76:
SPFT use vcom drivers.... Nothing to do with

ADB Drivers

If you need to flash the phone with SPFT just run the program

And when scatter file is loaded and flags setup accordingly to your

Needs.... Then plug the phone powered off, can be that window recognize the Device on

Preload port, install drivers automatically and then the flash starts

Otherwise install vcom manually, drivers provided some post behind

What to uninstall.

and how to proceed.

thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] biobio76:
Having usbdeview open, plug-in you phone powered off,

And see on usbdeview how phone is recognize...

You can remove the phone /drivers associated on that USB port,

So next time you plug in your phone is like you plug in for the

First time....

Honestly, don't really understood which problem you have..?

I'm suggesting usbdeview for unistalling issues

HAVING zopo c2 1.5GH 1/32G

Flash probably a wrong firmware (hohestly i don't know why it was wrong: c2 platinum 20131006.

then the phone wont turn on.

try to flash just the preloader/differnt cable/pc/flashtool :nothing.

try flashing vondroid rom that was said to unbrick :nothing.

????????????????????:confused:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] archie_658:
Does the charging battery image appear (phone off, charger connected)? If not, your preloader is gone. You can fix this by holding VolumeDown while connecting and flashing. You might have to remove the battery first.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] biobio76:
If your charger doesn't charge the battery... Aiaiaiai you can have brick your

Phone...

Holding volumer down while connecting the phone it will be recognized

On MTK USB port.... And you can try flashing the phone on this port.... But

It is not always working so this is the last try prior to try the test point...

Search on google what is test point and you will see what I mean...

You will loose warranty with test point because you must remove the zopo warranty label

To test point function....
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Bharat701HD:
Biobio may be pc installed vcom drivers when i connected it to pc first time but how do i recheck if that was installed properly or not?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] biobio76:
I'm saying it again, you don't need vcom drivers for day to day operations.... Vcom drivers are not ADB Drivers

You don't need to check anything... If SPFT is not flashining it means 99% the vcom drivers are not correctly installed so

I suggest you to use usbviewer to remove installation on your particular USB port used, and

Install drivers again manually

Again I don't understand what you exactly need to do...?

Try and flash C3 rom first , after that flash C2 rom again B version
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] biobio76:
If your phone is brick... Try this suggested way hoping will wake up the phone

And let you install back the right preloader

Otherwise the only way is to try flashing the phone on MTK USB port instead of preloader port...

Or if you are still in warranty inform seller and apply for warranty

Otherwise the remaining method is the TEST POINT...

Why C3 rom?. you can also place preloader file from C3 rom in C2 folder , it's about the preloader file some roms , even the original ones contain the wrong preloader / or it's misunderstood by people which version C2 they have and then flash a wrong version for their device :p

Folks, I am looking into buying this phone. Knowing that all chinese phones have some bugs, and not knowing what to search for exactly in this thread, I would like to know what are known problems with this model, and what to pay attention to when buying one?

1) Are radios working fine (GPS, WIFI, 3G, BT)?

2) Is voice quality and loudness ok in both directions and on all audio devices?

3) How's battery life?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] shaarky:
Ad 1\ I would say so, however there are some tricks for making GPS performing better (search Google for Zopo GPS Ygps).Personally I didnt test BT however.

ad 2\ For my father (70) it's fine :)

ad 3\ Simply, amazing, really.Light usage with all the time enabled WiFi 3-4 days.

But its still Chinese smartphone, so there is eg. problem with the buttons lights, they are almost invisible. But still, for that price (I bought Platinum C2,32GB) it's amazing.

Yes and using Dezmen3 rom / 4.2.1.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zdravke:
Yep, I don't know wassup with chinese phones and backlights lately - I have THL W200 with exact same problem. I can live with that, but voice calls and radios must be impeccable. I would hate to have to shout during conversation because mic is playing up for example.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prinsvlad:
My device , Zopo C2 1-32 GB , is working fine. No problems with radio functions , GPS is working acurate , wifi connects superfast to network also after deep sleep , bluetooth works great in combination with my carstereo , great sound no connection problems and 3G no problems so far after almost 3 months of use.

The voice quality when making calls is good , not high fidelity but it's good.

Battery life is great , when fully charged and both 3G & wifi enabled , mine lasts easily two whole days , but it depends on the user don it?.

troughout the day i text , send whatsapp messages , browse and play a game now and then.

Quality of the Full HD screen is awesome. It's crisp and clear wonderfull colours. The quality of the camera is average , not to good , but not too bad either. Zopo states it's a 13 Mp cam , but in fact it's a 8Mp interpolated to 13mp camera. Flash led of the cam is crappy , to weak for dark hours. But i don't care about the cam app. When i am out to take pictures i use my Canon Camera. In daylight though the camera does take rather acceptable frames , just make sure to have good lighting conditions.

Anyway , i enjoy my Zopo C2 [ or 980 for that matter , it's the same ] no big problems for me and nothing but a great phone for a small price.

And yes, it's 8,5 mm thick
