Guys, things are pretty straight forward. Without properly rooting your phone there is no other way of fixing things. At this point you have two options:

1. Install the ghost45 rom and uninstall with a programm like Systemapp Remover the apps you do not need.

2 Try to get root rights at your current rom

For No.1 ghost45 has described the procedure. Download everything from this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=48474130&postcount=4 except the official rom and the the ghost45 v1 rom from this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=49292374&postcount=3 and follow the procedure to flash it. His rom is a stock one with root rights and some extra programms.

For No.2 you need everything from this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=48474130&postcount=4 toghter with the stock rom. Install the stock rom update without the non working superuser and the Modded Recovery cwm 5504. As soon as you have the custom recovery on your phone and the zp700 20140104-161011 rom place at your sdcard the SuperSU installable zip http://download.chainfire.eu/381/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.91.zip or this file http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2157754&d=1375364375 if you want busybox also. Reboot and you will have proper root rights. Now extract the phone.apk from ghost45 rom and replace it at system/app with a root file manager to check if there are any improvements. For warranty issues you can flash back the original recovery anytime if you do not need the modded one any more.

Hope all the above helped.

The 3rd option would be best, zopo provide an update so keeping phone under warranty. Do zoo update? The WiFi update and update apps are there, but nothing available for the Nov and dec stock builds.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pugsang:
No updates but I do not mind. I fixed everything with option 1 because I was too lazy of going the second way. I also used the 2.5gb internal partitions. Everything work as they should and I have nothing to wait or to update.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] greyeyes70:
I'm not bothered about root, I just want phone app functioning correctly.. Apart from that.. Everything is great. The company I bought it from is aware. I've also posted it on the zopo forum, the zopomoibileshop forum and here. If I'm using a stock build and they do provide an update, then hopefully it will be a case of using the check for update, download and reboot to install, like the nexus devices.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] greyeyes70:
This issue is fixed, one of the earlier posts confused the issue...

there is a ROM available build: ZP700 20140104-161011 it looks like a stock rom, there is no mod signature on it and it doesn't have any additional apps,

once flashed to my phone, it looks identical to the install i got out of the box, but with the dialer pad issue fixed.

I'm all up and running, it works as it should now (i haven't checked everything out), this issue i was having has been resolved.

---------- Post added at 04:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:35 PM ----------

Just to give you the heads up:

I got the latest (stock rom: 20140104) from here:

http://forum.zopomobileshop.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1787

I download the flash tool ghost put a link to at the beginning:

Flashtools v 3.1316.0.150 : http://www.4shared.com/zip/RHJJa1Qx/sp_flash_tool_exe_v313160150.html

Unpacked both

shut the phone down, took the battery out, put it back in (didn't power it up).

You will need the MTK drivers installed.

followed the instructions here for flashing:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1982587 (locate the scatter file in the unpacked stock rom)

and plugged the phone in when it said to (don't power on) and it flashed completed and rebooted.

You lose everything (apart from SD card) as it completely flashes the new ROM.

Then i set the phone up and voice mail is now accessible via the pure android jellybean theme.

I found some MT6577 windows 7 USB drivers, does anyone know where the latest/best MTK 6582 drivers are?

Hi, if your zp700 is rooted i do recommend the app called 'Greenify'

It allow you to hibernate all the apps you do not need to be running all the time.

I put Facebook skype to be hibernated and few more apps and yet 2 days after mee on one charge :) without the app it was one day max.

Please note, i do not use my phone heavily.

Port ZOPO ZP700 to THL T5S

Hello to everyone, and i'm sorry to be off topic...after a bit search on XDA about ROM porting i've seen that in order to port a rom from a device to another device you need to find an official rom that's very close to the one your phone already uses. I think that the most close to my phone (T5S) is the official ZP700.

The T5S has a mic problem during video recording. To be more specific the mic sound gain is the same during video recording like when you use the phone during a phone call...in sort the videos have almost no sound at all ...because the mic cannot grab the sounds from far away! On the contrary during calls we have an excellent sound. (I've checked the problem with all the T5S users...and they all have the same problem with mic).

So I wanted to ask which ZP700 ROM is the official one and the latest one and if it has any problems similar to T5S or other (e.g. Mic, Signal, Camera, Battery etc)

Thank you in advance, and if someone knows more things to suggest (like mtk6582 port guides)...everything is welcomed! :D

WLAN Problem and Trailer Viewing PlayStore

Hello, i need your help because my new ZP700 have some Problems .

1.

After viewing a movie trailer in the google playstore, i can't view an other trailer .

The screen changed shortly in the video mode and then immediately goes back to the PlayStore page .

Only when I close the PlayStore APP and start again I can see another trailer .

Viewing trailers with " IMDB " works flawlessly.

2.

The second and main problem is the WLAN connection:

After screen on, the device often has no connection to the internet (Webbrowser, PlayStore ....) . The Wifi is connected with strong signal, but the device makes no data transfer . Only the changing to an other network or Wi-Fi off / on helps..

What I've found and tried:

The two problems (Trailer , WLAN) are not related .

The current firmware 2014-03-14 is installed.

In the settings "Wi-Fi sleep mode" is set to " always on" .

Could it be a baseband problem ???

Have other ZP700 users have the same problems ?

Version "C"

Sorry, but how do you know the version of your device? I've been searching it but I don't know were. I dont want to brick my zp700. Thanks.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] layup23:
Open up your case, take out the battery and on the upper side of the empty space where you insert your battery you will find a "C" written. That's how I found out about mine. I also have the C version.

Right now I also have problems with battery drain... I flashed the V4 Rom and after a while I installed Better Battery Stats. When I read the info it provides I notice that my phone does not go into Deep Sleep. On the "CPU states" section the CPU is at 1.04 Ghz almost all the time and there is no "Deep Sleep" info being shown.

Anyone know why?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Petepe10:
One other problem with Flac audio files.

Two issues:

- playing crashes 2 seconds before the end of a track if I stream from a DLNA server on my network (via BubblePnP etc).

- in general the phone runs hot at cpu max power and drains the battery as if there is no tomorrow.

It is probably the native flac decoder, I suspect that /system/lib/libMtkOmxFlacDec.so is the problem.

After flashing my phone with the ZP700 official rom download, found here:

http://www.zopomobileshop.com/content/9-download-zopo-mobile-latest-rom

Once i rebooted and reconfigured, i was informed there was an OTA update:

ZP700 20140410-164859

I downloaded it as recommended (need an SD card with plenty of free space installed),

it rebooted, and upgraded.. rebooted and then it was on the ZP700 20140410-164859

version.

I've had issues with the GPS, taking forever and not remembering...

Found this, this resolved the GPS issues on the ZP700:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrG-kIRDEJ0

One thing i have noticed, i've lost the vibrate mode on the ZP700.. it was working

fine prior to doing the flash and then the OTA update.

I've gone into the audio profiles etc, switched all the settings on, factory reset the phone.. still no vibrate..

i would like it to vibrate on calls (option set).. even went into the play store and found a vibrate test app..

that doesn't do anything either.

Is anyone on the ZP700 20140410-164859 version and is your vibrate mode working?

Just trying to identify if the vibrate is not working for this ROM version or my phone vibrate has

failed.

I upgraded my XP700 to the 4.4 release by ZOPO, they provided a touch driver v16 within the zip file.

I updated the driver (for smart wake) and it's very buggy, text messaging was virtually impossible.. swiping screen, launches apps...

if you press at one point, it thinks you pressed elsewhere and others have confirmed the same experience after upgrading the touchscreen driver.

I downgraded Android back to 4.2.2 jellybean.. the driver is still at v16 and causing issues.

Has anyone got the original touchscreeen v14 driver that came with the phone?

2 weeks ago I upgrade my Zopo ZP700 to 4.4.2 firmware 20140721-190157. Everything works great, specially GPS (problem with finding signal while on 4.2.2). Now I have problem with internal memory. I remember, that I could move some aplications like FB, skype etc to my SD card, but now I can't. There was this superuser option, but now I don't have it. Maybe I'm wrong, but seems to me that with 4.4.2 version I need to root my phone, although I don't know how it is possible if phone came rooted already, but with 4.2.2 version.

Anyhow, I've tried to root with vroot, rootgenious and baidu root... without success.

Please help. Normaly, I would not do rooting, but problem came when I'm trying to install new aplications, since I'm constantly with low free space... around 150MB.

What should I do?? I'm not very experienced.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] phonepete:
even the chinese version 1.7.8 will root but titanium has no rights to use sd card, so link2sd may not work too,

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] phonepete:
is there still 4.2.2 JB version at your zp700 ? phone is rooted and you have a full backup by mtkdroidtools and nvram imei too, this is most important !

use sp flash tool v5 to flash new 2.1 gb partitions for KK !!! mtk6582 and twrp mod recovery for KK !!! first,

then install Marsapa rom zip file (not the partizione one ! gives you only 1.5gb) by twrp recovery,

works with c version and you have root, no new touch drivers included, new gravitybox 3.4 will work too,

for step by step you may try this

the new touch panel driver is also not included in the original zopo firmware, it is a separate update file;

since root was not so easy at original Zopo KK (but vroot may work) Marsapa is a good choice
