Questions Before I buy a Zopo C3

I need to get a phone for my wife. The dog chewed up her Samsung Eternity that she has had for years.

She does not use here phone for any Data, so this phone worked well for here. It had good voice, a music player and a Camera. She does not do games, but wouldlike to be able to shoot some Videos of the dog, hopefully she will not catch him on Video chewing up my phone!

So now we are looking at phones again.

I am looking at the C3 and have some questions before I buy it.

Here's what we need in a phone

1) Large Screen -- 5.0" (NOT 6.0")

2) Decent Camera

3) HD Video

4) Gorilla Glass Screen

5) Stable Phone

6) WiFi -- No cellular Data needed because of cost

7) 1 GB RAM 16 GB ROM

8) Android OS

9) GPS needs to work well

We like the shapeof the C3, Very Galaxy like.

Here are the questions:

1) Is there any real difference between the 16 GB models of the 980, C2, and C3(we prefer the C3 Look)

2) If we put in a 32GB SD card, can you still use the internal 16 GB storage?

3) Will I be able to Flash Upgrades with Win 7 32bit or 64bit?

4) Is it Possible to boot into WinPE and do flashing(something for the developers here to consider maybe)

5) How is the Voice Quality?

6) Is the Android system stable and performs well if updated for the Bug fixes?

7) Are there adjustments that canbe made to speed up GPS lock?

8) Will TWRP work for recovery?

9) If there is a recovery that works for C2 and 980, will it work for C3?

10) I read about charging probles(CPU 100%) and overheating while charging. Has this been resolved?

11) Even though I like the looks of the C3, would the C2 or 980 be a better choice considering the questions Iam asking, or are all three of these phones about the same as far as problems are concerned.

12) Is tis phone too buggy to give to my wife?

Thought I would ask all the questions at one time, my apologies for the long post.

Here is a picture of my dog relaxing in the pool after dining on cell phones!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] oddhap:
This is based on my 4 months using the zopo c3:

1) The hardware is the same, you can flash a c2 rom onto the c3, some c2 roms make the camera upside down.

2) Yes

3) Yes

4) Don't know

5) About the same as samsung galaxy s2

6) Stock android is unstable, crashes a lot. Lewa OS is stable (official chinese rom), can stay on for weeks without crashes or reboots.

7) Don't know

8) All C2 recoveries work (I use cwm)

9) Look at 8

10) Never had this problem

11) C2/980 is a better choice if you want to flash custom roms

12) Stock android is, lewa is not.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] les_garten:
Thanx for the great info.

Just a few more questions.

If C3 takes everything the C2/980 will, why would you say one is better than the other for Custom ROMs. Since C3 is just out, won't more ROMs be forthcoming?

You said the Voice was about as good as the Sammy S2,is that Good or bad?

What Network are you on?

I am particularly how the phone performs on ATT in the US.

Like is Call quality good

If phone connections are stable

What exact version of CWM and ROM would you recommend for C3, C2, or 980

You are making me feel a littl better.

The Zopo forums make these sound like they are terrible.

Hi y'all , i have a question about miui.

I now run with my 980 2g/32gig b version miui v5 the latest build. And the old boot image 10/06

This is a very good rom for battery and smoothnes,, some things still in chinese but not a prob, those are minor.

Now my question is , what's the diffirence with lewa v5 -) smoothnes,languege,bugs etcetera?

Because miui is very good but smoothnes off opening apps an launcher loading was faster in stock rom 18/08.

So in comparionsment with stock, what is best - lewa or miui?

I read this whole thread and think I might be more confused than when I started!

I was going to get a C3, but it is just not supported.

So that brings me to a C2 or 980

which should I get?

I need these things

1) Gorilla Glass

2) 1GB/16GB or 1GB/32GB or 2GB/32GB

Which one to get the most "compatible" and best supported phone?

Hello all :)

I'm posting in here my request because i guess this post is the most appropriate for Zopo zp 980.

I was wondering... does anyone is using a sd card with thz zopo and is it formated in NTFS ?

Somehow i just can't use mine, i have tried several and it always said the sd card is dammaged

The sd work well if formated with fat32

I have found a post on the forum http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1724078

If you have any experience with this i would appreciate any help :good::highfive::D

Just because it is the older version and more people have it. But all the solutions are developed for 1/16 are working on the 2/32 too. So I think support and compatibility is not a question.

You have to change Mac address for both as sometimes with new roms Mac also changed.

Hi Soaham.

Loving now your work mate, your SAMMY V3 ROM really rocks my Zopo C2 but I really hate TouchShi.tZ please turn this awesome base (let me guess: Lewa's V5?) into pure stock android feeling...

Answers you can believe

I'm having trouble getting answers I can believe about Zopo phones.

*** Which ones DEFINITELY have Gorilla glass?

You look over all sites that sell Zopo phones and if the Zopomobile website doesn't list Gorilla Glass for a Phone model, the sites in other countries like Germany don't list it either.

I find it very bizarre that if you had something as nice as Gorilla glass, that you wouldn't list it in the description on the sales website. That make no sense to me at all. Here's why this is important:

Here's a few thread, there are quite a few:

http://forum.zopomobileshop.com/thread-814-1-1.html

http://forum.zopomobileshop.com/thread-629-1-1.html

Then there are a few other strange things.

****Why would you make White phones with Gorilla Glass but not Black one? I don't get that either.

Then there was a statement made around late August that to address the Screen breakage issues, all C2s and (980s would be Gorilla Glass gong forward.

But Then...

These threads have since been deleted or mod edited including one by the OP of this thread?

http://forum.zopomobileshop.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1076&highlight=Gorilla%2BGlass

And there pretty much has to be a problem when right next to the cases and screen protectors on the accessory screens are replacement Glass screens! Where do you see that at? This indicates it's a high demand product to me.

So this brings up another question.

On ZOPO Mobile's C2 page there is a C that is 1GB/16GB and one that is 1GB/32GB. They are the same price?? Some of the people ordering them can't get s straight answer if they have Gorilla Glass or not and they're ticked off.

Why can't we get straight answers to these questions? And by straight answer, I mean if "Rumor" says they are all Gorilla Glass, why don't the websites say that. You can look at multiple different websites and very few of the Zopo products list Gorilla Glass.

My personal opinion, is that we are being lied to.

Here's my from-experience info on screens:

I have C2 Platinum black, upgraded C2 which is actually second generation ZP980 with Turbo CPU.

here are all versions of this device:

REGULARC2: ZOPO C2 first batch (black white) - 1080p, 5mpx front cam, 1GB RAM, 4GB ROM, MTK6589

PLATINUMC2: ZOPO C2 Platinum + C2 Black (same as White called Platinum) - 1080p, 8mpx front cam, 1GB RAM, 16GB ROM, MTK6589 Turbo

REGULAR980: ZP980 - 1080p, 8mpx front cam, 1GB RAM, 16GB ROM, MTK6589 (no Turbo)

TURBO980: ZP980 Turbo - 1080p, 8mpx front cam, 1GB RAM, 16GB ROM, MTK6589 Turbo

MORE RAMROM: ZP980 32 - 1080p, 8mpx front cam, 2GB RAM, 32GB ROM, MTK6589 Turbo

If you notice, I gave them names. :)

PLATINUMC2 and TURBO980 are same devices with ONLY difference being back cover with or without Alyun OS logo.

I had cracked screen so I replaced it via zopomobileshop order.

My leftovers of previous glass, shards DO NOT MELT which would be the case if it was Acrylic plastic instead of Gorilla. Acrylic plastic melts when soldering iron applies on it even below 100C, and Kornig Gorilla doesnt melt below 600C. So this is for sure:

PLATINUMC2 / TURBO980 most definitely HAVE gorilla glass OR some other type of alkali-aluminosilicate sheet toughened glass as it wouldnt be a wonder that chinese are cloning the process.

Dont know for other models but I really doubt ZOPO has 2 molds, one for gorilla and one for Acrylic glass. Companies dont do that.

In ZP980+ (FW 20130818-173942) the light sensor doesn't work and always shows 800 or 900 lux. I tested it with "GPS status" and "SensorTest", both of them read the light sensor. I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but can we have this fixed in a new FW? tx.

weird, in URL there is 2GB RAM and on the actual page there is 1GB RAM stated. they really need to get their website shi* in order.

Anyways it is all same device, as it only depends how much RAM they gonna solder to the board, or EMMC chip. I havent experienced any lag with 1GB RAM and I really think there is no need for more than 1GB RAM even with fullHD, knowing how android utilizes working memory (unused RAM is wasted RAM). Devices that require more than 1GB RAM are those with ridiculous GUI requirements such as TouchWiz and not much is left for actual user of the phone.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] les_garten:
Their site, and others dealing in Chinese phones are rife with errors.

You would think where there is so little difference between models they would get the specifics correct.

I think a big part of their problems are a different language and a different "alphabet"

I've seen some strange errors silk screened into audio gear and such.

The Chinese are getting better with details and QC all the time. The can make REALLY serious Audio Gear, mainly because they don't believe in intellectual property. They are making the same mistakes the Japanese did early on. The Japanese weren't saddled with Communism though, so IMO they corrected this stuff much quicker.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Igoritza:
Here are some tips and tricks to make it bug-free and to maximize ZP980/C2 performance:

1. dont change ROM as ZOPO is close-to-AOSP (explanation will follow)

2. charge it initially WITHOUT going bellow 20% at least 10 times. From experience - this phone doesnt like discharge, specially when you start to use it. ALL problems this phone has, tend to appear when battery is low in first days of usage. ALL of them dont appear if you dont let it go bellow 20% first couple of times

3. Instal Xposed network from GENIOUS devloper rovo89 and install Gravitybox and other modules for tweaking system. Xposed is so awesome, that it makes custom roms obsolete. everything you need you can "inject" into the code of system and kernel. Besides modules, there are also fixes specially for MTK. Note that Xposed works only on AOSP-like systems and modified custom rom wont accept it.

4. Make your phone the way you want it

5. unfortunatelly, SIM slots may be loose on some devices (I have 2 C2's) and it is necessary to tighten SIM with something even if you have data/reception, you will notice a boost once you tighten SIM

6. DONT let your phone fall :) as you will notice, there is no casing around the glass. Sacrificed in favor of design, but extremely breakable. glass is strongly mounted but not protected.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] les_garten:
