Good morning, I've question. I've read about Zopo's smartphone like the ZP980 model, that some people said that it's impossible to install programs in the internal rom beacuse is preformatted. It's only available a little memory space about 1,5 GB.

So my question is if it's possible to install programs, applications and games in all the 32GB phone storage of the ZP990?

Thanks for reply.

Can I put the zopo 990 battery (3000mah) in zopo 980 / Zopo C2 (2000mah) ??
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ghost45:
Hi Friend,

For the internal system memory you can reflash the firmware with new ebr 1 and 2 to amount the operative system to 2,49 gb and the remain memory to use like internal sd....but some apps must need to sd card and so you in some situations don't make nothing in other situation you can decide to install some apps in sd card!

bye

p,s.

before any type of operations wait the link to the original firmware.....because if you became in brick situation you don't have the possibility to relive the phove!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] FlipMorten:
As mentioned you can expand the storage space for apps, however most large apps install on SD card, either internal or external. I've installed may GBs worth of games already today, but all the large games have the files on SD card, so no problem here at least:)

Got my ZP990 today. Haven't noticed any ghost touches this far. Tested in normal use and when charging too. Any particular situation where you encounter this on you ZP980? Then I can check if it happens on my ZP990 as well.

Was happy and surprised when I saw that the phone included S-view flip cover in addition to normal battery door. As well as one additional screen protector.

WIFI Issue

My zp990 has no problem to connect to my router and to surf the internet but I am currently unable to check my emails.

This issue doesn't occur when I'm using the 3G instead of the WIFI connection from my phone.

Also: When looking in Setting -> About Phone -> Status -> IP Address, there's no IP defined (it says: Unavailable).

To summarize, my WIFI connection only allows me to surf the web but not my email with the Yahoo app. My build number is 20130904 with the 7 GB partition.

Any help is more than welcome.

GPS problems

Hello, I have ZP990 since 3 days now and everythings looks to work great but the GPS.

I tried all kind of solution from the build text change to adding GPS.conf and gpsconfig.xml to the system/etc folder. I also used FasterGPS app and did the EPO update and even used the PimpmyROm app to use the GPS option in there but othing worked and i can't show my screenshots showing that the GPS is "dead" because im' a newbie but the Zdevice app gps test isnot working and stay blank, In the ygps sectionof the engineer mode teh status of gps is unavailable and the GPS test app shows 11 satelite but 0 fixed and teh gps button on top left is yellow and not green .. :( if anyone has an solution for me he's very welcome

GPS fix

.CUT

I followed this guide How to fix poor GPS on mediatek phones. This made the GPS usability 'acceptable'.

My ZP990 just arrived this morning. With this procedure the GPS was fine, provided I started using it 'close to home'. I'll have plenty of opportunity to test it after the weekend in two distinct geo-locations.

Problem to find gsm network operators

Hi,

Since Yesterday my zp 990 doesn't find any GSM network.

I tried with different sim card and nothing.

It seems to search and nothing?

I reset my phone and still have the problem.

Can you give me a solution.

Do you think that is coming from the phone or a radio problem

Kind regards
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] HorstDCC:
Did you install both sets of drivers? That was something that I originaly missed in the well intended instructions, so just in case you did to:

For the up & Android running ZP990 the universal ADB drivers work fine.

For the ZP990 in other modes you need the specific (PRELOADER) drivers for this model. cfr http://www.4shared.com/zip/ykW0IGDv/Driver.html a bit higher in this thread.

well it's same problem even at this zp990

I've got a zopo 990 aka captain S with 2GB of RAM and 32 GB and when i used internet data service for gameing online is worst. after 1o or 15 minutes it's impossible to take the control. i try even to switch the card sim slots between them, same results. so now i just let him to cool off and work again normal.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] JoeDante:
I had a similar problem, my 990 lost GSM all the time.

I found out that my SIM-Card was a little too thin, so i just put some layers of scotch tape

on the back of the card and that solved the problem.

mic problem?

Hi, I am planning to buy this phone but searching info before to making the purchase, I find that many people complains about the microphone volume problem... so, is there anybody who take the time to talk about this matter? Thanks!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] JeeC:
u can tweak this easily with tutorials online. usingthe app pimp my romm is already a good step. so that's not a problem
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rikochet33:
yeah, I've been reading about it, but I've found that many people have fixed this through software mode... like Mobile Uncle Tools or some... so, I haven't read about pimp my rom, but I'll do some search from now, thanks... and btw, I read that some people recommend to replace the mic! haha... but, I don't really want to do that...

Edit: I read some about this Pimp my Rom, and I see that this is some like a toolbox for those people who enjoy doing tweaks on his devices like me... so, apparently, I can buy this amazing phone without any concerns?

I found this in the zopo mobile shop forum that I'd like to share for your opinion (sorry for the spanish but this is the original language of the post, but I think many people will understand in general terms):

Tenía un problema de volumen bajo en el micrófono. Voy a explicar cómo lo he solucionado:

Uutilizr la app Mobileuncle MTK Tools (Descargar de Google Play – Hay que ser root).

Para ajustar valores en el micrófono (te oigan con volumen bajo)

1º Descargar, instalar y ejecutar “Mobileuncle MTK Tools”

2º Menú Engineer Mode (MTK)

3º Audio/Normal mode/Type/Mic/Level

4º Configurad los 6 niveles así:

Level 0 a 255

Level 1 a 235

Level 2 a 215

Level 3 a 205

Level 4 a 195

Level 5 a 185

Level 6 – 175

*Hay que configurar todos los niveles al valor indicado. Cada vez que sales de un nivel debes pulsar Set y OK.

5º Una vez puesto el valor en todos, salir con tecla “atrás” del móvil hasta el principio de la aplicación y vuelves a darle a OK para salir.

6º Reiniciad el movil.

A mi me ha funcionado con un Zopo zp910 y te oyen mejor.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] JeeC:
thats the other thing to do :) no need to put a new mic. and yes it's an excellent phablet.go for it. i bought mine here. it's a great shop from china but managed by frenchies :) and they have a great aftersell service and all the phones are guarenteed 1 year.they provide all the info u need in english too.:good:

Another question here... is there anyone who try to overclock CPU? I have succeed doing this in my previous (samsung) devices but... here is a dark zone that I'm starting to meet... so, I think this is possible in this device right?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] KnieveI:
Im very happy with the phone myself.

I would suggest Etotalk. They are reliable.

But if you are looking for a phone to overclock, i dont think MTK is the right choice.

So far i havent seen oc on any MTK except for MTK6573 many years ago.

They do not release any kernel sources.

Come on MediaTek!!

Thanks

Booting into recovery when turned of.

Thank you.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] JeeC:
for now the devellopment ofr this device is not so furnished and there's no datas such as kernels ,tweaks etc in a samsung like quantity. but despites the difference inside the phones, the MTK devices are able to be rooted, updated and tweaked too. with even some cooler and easier to use app than on samsungs device such as pimp my rom, Eroot (easiest way to root the phone), flashtool ( to flash updates and tweaks) and many other like mobile uncle to enter the engineer mode adn tweak the GPS or instal some CWM recovery!

voila!

u can go for it the data's will grow as well as with MTK users!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rikochet33:
Thanks for the reply... reading on some forums, I found that people found this device at a very decent speed (1.5ghz), so... maybe I have to leave this matter appart for now... I mean, OC is a thing to consider in major tweaks list, but this is not a very high priority subject that concerns me, so... I can live with that...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] *rWx*:
Overclock is not possible with MT6589/T. I love my ZP990, great phone with enough speed for me :)

Wait some weeks if you need more speed. Zopo will upgrade their phones with 8 Core SoC MT6592.

BAD GPS accuracy

Hi M3n3chm0,

Did you managed to discover anything else?

I have the same GPS problems with ZP990, let me explain;

I have been using the phone the last few weeks without any problem, but didn't had the chance to test the GPS properly.

Now that I did, I discovered that although it catches the signal quickly and shows a good accuracy values (sometimes they are unrealistic, for example 2m "with a low amount of sats and low signal") but that "supposedly" good doesn't reflect the real GPS quality position [*].

I tried everything; for example tests on a highway shows the car position like 100 meters "off" the target although the accuracy shows "7 meters" what is impossible.

The same thing happens when using it on a still location where instead of keeping the position within a 10 meters radius "accordingly with the 4 meters accuracy that shows up on screen" is jumps all over the place (more than 50/60 meters) and never keeps steady.

Bear in mind I ran the test with clear sky and without obstacles.

This is really a big problem, making the use of the GPS ZP990 Phone completely useless!!

[*] – Someone else as already point out this problem, although this could be a issue that affected only a few units (not everybody has the problem I mentioning here).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVNDHL3UZ4c

Also tried the solution on about the MobileUncle Tools for Quick “GPS” fix but again as I said before “no problem with fixing the signal, only bad accuracy”..

Anyone tested their ZP990 to see their real accuracy? Don't be fooled by the accuracy values reported by the phone! In fact I have a suspicious

(taking in account the bouncing on the maps) that we should multiply by a factor of 5 or 10 the values reported. Let's get real "2 meters" when we have 5 sats in sight and all with SNR of less than 25, no way...

Please advise,

Regards,

FJorgeR.

Battery woes!

Ok .. there definitely is something janky about the battery calibration on these devices, we have two, and they both display the same behaviour: even when charged a 'reboot' can result in the battery level showing as low as 3 or 4% , then rebooting again, shows around 80%, then if we charge them, they very quickly go back to 100% - something more like a re-assessment than actual charging! When running the devices down they get to 14% and sit there for ages, anything up to 1 1/2 hours. We have tried the re-calibration in CWM several times, and 'Easy Battery Calibration' from the playstore - nothing has changed this behaviour. Also this 'charged to 4%' issue does not happen if the zopo is powered Off/On instead of 'reboot'

Can anyone try the following - charge your zopo and 'reboot' it, what do you get?

Here is the 14% issue:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] HorstDCC:
Battery Woes

... the same value before and after reboot as expected. The phone was recharging from socket, not from a lower power connection.

FYI I have experienced the behaviour you describe on HTC phones in the past when connected to a laptop or with a flaky cable.

For me battery stats are actually very reliable. I normally recharge every other day. On quite a few days I'm USB tethering so I'm not allways going fully down and fully up again, yet I still have reliable stats.

This too used to be an isue with ageing batteries.

I have the same issue with my ZP990. Navigating with sygic or google maps isn't reliable. Once in a while I'm 20 to 100 meters or so away from my real location. I hope it's a software issue that will be solved. Too bad because it's the only issue I have with the zopo.

Next test will be without the flipcase.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Samkee007:
Well, I just got my ZP990 about 5 days ago the phone is indeed pretty nice given the lower price when compare with Samsung. It should be a good phone if it doesn't have the problem I going to list it.

I noticed the speaker volume is a kind of weak & low in the beginning, the ring not even loud enough for any incoming call but I thought if I get the app it might take care of the problem easily, later on I found out it is not that easy as I thought, by the third day of using all of the sudden the phone doesn't even ring no more during a call, no ringtone no music sound if playing by any player, it does give out alert sound for email, messages and reminder, the phone even plays the ZOPO opening sound when power on as a result, I've missed quite of bit of calls from friends & family if I happened to let the phone sit on table. It is pretty frustrated!

I started to google it and found out a lot of people got the same problem I also log in the Engineering Mode to change microphone and speaker volume value, it only help to make it louder for alert sound but still doesn't help the ringtone and music playing still no sound!

I contacted the ebay seller who I got it from, she said she will ship me a new one if I send back the defective one. I hope the new one is normal cause I really like this phone.
