root and firmware upgrade tutorial

No ofense, but it is almost impossible to understand the tutorial to root, CWM and upgrade firmware you can find in http://forum.zopomobileshop.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1293&page=1#pid11449 .

Maybe somebody could post a better version here, with working links to the necessary files and programs that we can use with Windows 7 or 8.

Please.

That`s very easy to flash and to get everything,

i will give you 2 different ways here:

1) Download the complete zip you need here: http://chinamobiles.org/downloads.php?do=file&id=879

unpack in a extra folder (best deskto to find it), in this zip file everything is included, incl. the genius mod wit internal memory upgrade to 7 GB!

2) you have to to search every part you need for your own:

ROM (rooted) and flashtools here: http://www.needrom.com/mobile/zopo-c7/

If you will change internal memory to 7 GB see some posts before here in thread! You need both EBR files!

3) IMPORTANT: Drivers for Windows here: http://www.zopomobileshop.com/en/content/9-download-zopo-mobile-latest-rom

These drivers you have to install FIRST (they are not includet in my complete zip in 1)), check if you phone is knowing by your Hardware Manager on you PC or Laptop before trying to flash!

Flashprocess:

Unzip everything! Best is, everything is in only one place in SPFlashtool Folder!

- Unpack FlashTools, and Click on Flash_tool.exe

- Select a the MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc.txt in ROM

- Wait file to be added into Flash Tool

- choose Option->USB Model,click USB Model

–> Choose Option->DA DownLoad All->Speed->High Speed, click High Speed

- Turn off your phone, remove the battery.

- "Press F9 (hit Download button)" OR " if upgrade ROM Firmware->Upgrade "

- and connect your phone into the computer via USB data cable.

- The process will start and a red progress bar will appear after color purple, yellow.

- And green circles display

- Finish !

- You can now safely disconnect your phone and turn it on.

Hello guys,

The intructions posted by my colleague Ghost45 are good :) :good: I did all steps this weekend (CWM + ROOT + screen path) but now i'm having troubles restoring DATA of my old backup from 980... "Error while restoring /data" using advance restoration.. :(

I use same versions 0632 in 980 and 990 of CWM and also tried with older ones :S (but still no luck).. I don't understand what is working wrong... It's the first time I ger this issue on CWM ... :mad:

If anyone have knowledge about this issue on CWM please let me know asap :)

I hope to solve it on the next days soon... and I'll post a STEP by STEP video guide in ZOPO forum and here. :victory:

Thanks!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Petteri:
Take a look in pictures he gave the link,

1)download my Driver Pack and Root pack here:

http://www.4shared.com/zip/ttg16QU0/RootDrivers_MT6589T.html

Install the drivers now first! (Root you didn`t need in case of using my complete ROM Download in 2))

take a look on the pictures how to install everything on your PC or Laptop!

(Sometimes when you work with Windows 8 you have to disable driver licence check!) but it should work without!

2)download my complete ROM here:

http://www.4shared.com/zip/b-S-fbrx/7GB_Flash_20130915.html

unzip the pack on Desktop folder, shut down your phone take off accu and start SP Flashtool.exe, insert the Scatter file includet in my pack and let every point be checked!

....click on "download" or in case "firmware upgrade" in Software and conect the phone without Accu to you PC, wait if you see drivers will installed again, if happend the flashing prcess will start and now wait until the colors will change until you will get green OK Box!

Shut the Software, and take of USB from Phone, put Accu inside and reboot phone!

You will have now latest ROM incl. 7 GB internal Memory and complete root!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jamonda:
Please let me know:

1) What do you mean by "without Accu"? Without battery?

2) Does your rom wipe my apps and files?

3) How to flash CWM? Do I need to change the filename to recovery.img and put it in the same place indicated by the scatter file?

4) What version of CWM should I use? The 5504 indicated in the italian tutorial or the 6032 found in this forum (http://forum.zopomobileshop.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1220&page=1&extra=#pid10982)?

2)decompress in the folder

3) replace in the original folder , cwm recovery(recovery.img+ ebr1 and 2 (big partition up to7-13gb what you desire)

4)close the phone...remove battery..inserit again without open the phone

5) run flashtool versxxxx150 select scatter file and you have all the flags selected

6) make in flashtool program firmware upgrade

7) ONLY now connect to the phone and usb to the pc(is better wn xp but before you have installed the drivers to recognize the phone)

now you have the last firmware and the new partition and recovery mod!

you can only enter in the recovery menu and install superuser

Games stuttering

Hi, got the ZP990 and in general it seems good. I have two issues with it, one, games like Asphalt 7, Asphalt 8 & F18 Carrier Landing have considerable screen stuttering. Asphalt 7 does not have adjustable quality graphics and I have seen flawless playback on a ZP990 with Asphalt 7 on YouTube. Any ideas?

The other thing I don´t like is the large margin at the top and bottom of the screen, unusable with widgets and shortcuts, obviously programs use the whole screen but there is about 1,2+1,2 unusable centimetres, in fact were it not for this there could be 5*4 icon rows, hope someone addressess this in a ROM sooner or later.

Didn´t like the fixed Google search widget at the top on all screens but managed to get rid of that...

If not for the stuttering and unusable homescreen top/bottom margins I would sell my Mega 6.3!

Two more problems:

Bluetooth asks for permission each time I get in my car, once paired I shouldn´t have to go through this, but I do, unlike my i9205...

Phone will not recognize a 32Gb Class 6 Micro SD from Samsung...

After you have placed the apk in system (with a file explorer with root permission),

Look at permissions first on another apk that got rw-r--r-- and just

make the same pattern.

Then reboot.

Zopo zp990 - increased Primary partition to 27.85GB

I was looking over the web on how to increase the primary partition for my ZOPO ZP990 2GB/32GB to have more data for the apps installed.

Accidentally I found the flash tool SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1304.0.119_EDT for a different phone based on MTK 6589 with modified EBR files and I flashed the EBR files with the recommended flash tool for the phone (SP_Flash_tool_v3.1316.0.150) and when I restarted the phone I had the welcome surprise to see that my Primary partition was now 27.85GB. Of course that I also have an external microSD card (which in my case it is 64GB class 10) and it is a very good combination.

Feel free to try by yourself and enjoy the increased Primary partition.

Tried 64gb and 32GB nu succes, 16 GB works

Hello.

Tried Kingston 64GB SDXC exFAT64. When copying files, mostly mp3, using Airdroid and also through USB connection, i got, after approximately 16 to 20 GB the message that the type of files weren't supported and the device wasn't able to play these type of files. Also some maps didn't contain rany files, although I am sure I copied complete maps to the SD card in the ZP990. I Read a tip on another forum trying to format SDXC exFAT64 tot FAT32. That also didn't work. Using a 32GBHC card had the same problems. Now I am using a 16GB card. That works fine. However the ZP990 must be able to support 64GB.

Does anyone have a solution to this problem or is this a hardware failure.
