Hello a friend of mine had that phone. Beside from the battery writes ZOPO Model :zp998 but when i go to the recovery writes 9520 recovery so i don't know which of this 2 model is the real. The phone i took it to repair because it stucks and after 1 munute make reboot and when i open it it flashes many ads in the screen. I tried from recovery and choose wipe factor reset but still has the ads and a strange message when i open it says unfortunately cps had stopped working that i don't know what it means. I think if i can flash from sp flashtool a rom even stock or custom it will stop all the problems. But which rom is better because i don't know for sure which model is. Please any help will be appreciated it!!! Thank you
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] AP756:
ZP998 and 9520 are identical in hardware, so there is no problem and you don't have to care. Do not flash the bootloader and you are safe ( see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2628055 ).

From your description I recommend to flash a new recovery ( I use http://www.needrom.com/download/twrp-3/ ) and the best ROM in my opinion ( http://www.needrom.com/download/clean-stock-kitkat-by-komu/ ). If you like to modify this ROM you should root your phone by flashing Superuser from ClockworkMod via TWRP recovery (http://www.koushikdutta.com/post/superuser) and installing Xposed Framework (http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer ) you will get all possible features for your ZP998. Good luck

Are you sure so this is 6.0. In androidiani forum member upload android 6.0, but i install this ROM on my ZOPO, turned out so this is CM 12.1. But try this :)

Yesterday i ported 6.0.1 to ZP998, now my opinion: fast, stable, all working, but DualSIM don't tested by me. I will try upload, but my internet speed is bad :/

ZP998 and archlinux..

I have had this phone for a few weeks now here in Australia, SA. I have Archlinux.

can I have step by step on how I root this device, put CWM on it, and how I can put new ROM on it?

I think first CWM goes on it, than I get it rooted using CWM on it somehow, than just install new ROM after formatting all caches and main partition? I have all my data on microSD anyway.

I absolutely LOVE this phone, but quiet microphone is quite a bad issue, there are also other minor bugs, what is the best ROM to put on this device, I can only use linux to do this.

The last procedure with framaroot run until new version of superuser apper on google paly...after installed that upgrade the superuser go in block

and the phone are not rooted...to return back is possible to erase the update of superuser that remain old version!!

But now the new procedure with patch with my friend PaoloThl is very good!!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Sathelp:
Email kept crashing too, so I now use K9 mail and all is good. Found battery lasting better on auto brightness.

Would be good to be able to use gravity box on this though. Settings are very limited in this ROM ( stock). I

I tried to get memory extended but had to go back to a back up. It would be good to get this so that there is only internal phone memory nearly maxed out and then disable the remaining. This would leave phone memory and your and card memory and how I have used ROMs in the past ZTE V987 when customised by Bruno. I really hope that any new custom ROMs may have this feature too.

However, this is a good solid phone with lots of potential.

I don't have echo in calls.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] conanecu:
After you fix the gyroscope, can you please upload the firmware somewhere for me? Everything I tried had echo call. Thank you.

About the VPN service. I have 3 security IP cameras at my house. I watch them from any place with an app on my phone (Wi-Fi or mobile data). Those IP cameras have LAN IP like 192.168.x.x, I didn't pull them through WAN with port forwarding because of the security reasons. And I reach them through a VPN connection. Starting with lolipop android, after I connect through VPN, I don't have ping in any IP from my local network, therefore I cannot watch the cameras even if I am connected to my local network.

Hello,

After search, I found Link mentioning TWRP for ZP998 :

http://4pda.ru/forum/lofiversion/index.php?t584123.html

Link to ZP998 TWRP 3.0.2-0 :

http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=584123&view=findpost&p=48791872

This is the latest TWRP version as mentioned by TWRP web site :

https://twrp.me/

Apr 5, 2016

TWRP 3.0.2-0 Released

To change the TWRP default theme, refer to :

http://www.droidviews.com/install-material-design-themes-for-twrp-recovery/

Materialised theme 1080 x 1920 (FHD) with instructions to Install Material Design Themes for TWRP

https://s.basketbuild.com/devs/z31s1g/1080/

Download theme for TWRP 3.0.2-0:

302X_v4_hdpi_light_play-signed.zip

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24694152805484438

I already used the above TWRP 3.0.0-2 for ZP998 and ui.zip (renamed from 302X_v4_hdpi_light_play-signed.zip and put in /TWRP/Theme/ )

with great success. I found that it is safer and better to backup and restore with the same TWRP version.

For example, backup done with TWRP 2.8.4.0 is not compatible (cannot be restored) with TWRP 3.0.2-0.

hello!

I have a zopo zp998.

Last days I tried to make a restore and I wiped system wiht data & cache.

After this the phone boots and stay at zopo logo.

The phone is unlocked and has the twrp 3.0.0.0 recovery.

Boot in recovery, but phone not recognized sd card, neither OTG. (I have tried many sd cards)

In that way I can't load new .zip file.

I tried to mount MTP but my computer find it as unrecognised usb device.

I tried it in other pc, windows 7, usb, cables, drivers and nothing.

Maybe the usb is dead. On the other hand it is charging.

Of course ADB is not working.

Maybe the TWRP has these problems.

Is there any way to copy files in the phone???? with terminal???

My 1st phone has problem and I haven't phone now.

Thank's in advance.

Root zp998 with framaroot 1.91

@ everyone,

as a result of your reports I've found that the only quick procedure to obtain root privileges is the procedure framaroot!

But then if you make updates to superSu the market you will lose the rights to the Root!

The various procedures earlier too laborious and not working 100%

In fact I have ascertained the lack after a bit of Mount system read and write!
