[MENTION=3924647]bigrammy[/MENTION]: Original recovery is 8.27 MB, yours is 13.47 MB. Do you think this fits? Right now I don't know the structure of the Speed7-ROM, but I think other parts of the ROM have to be moved. Can you upload the scatter you used so we can have a look at the allocation? Thanks.
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] bigrammy:
64bit SoC recovery partitions are generally 16mb in size.

I do not have the zopo speed myself. Maybe ghost45 could upload the scatter as I assume he got the .img's from a stock rom.

EDIT: Scatter here http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/?id=11352#downloads

Thanks to arrive here Big!

I have check inside your recovery and i saw that you are able to leave the file compressed inside (kernel.gz) ...but you have update your repack and unpack tool?

:silly:
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] ghost45:
Big this is the result:

The twrp start but i receive this message:

And the touch seems do not respond at all......but this is first step ....

To the contrary i have tryied again my cwm base (not touch) sorry but i'm fixed for the cwm...and run well but i must see the memory sector to understand why i can't able to see the sd ext card.

see you and thanks for your work.

but before i have had problem with see my last post, maybe xda forum have some problems today!

Your recovery start but do not run the touch at all and do not run also with the volume button.

So is unusable for now.

To the contrary my cwm run well but i must check well the memory sectors to understand why the sd ext is not seen.

(The memory internal is visible the sd ext not)

Ok, great.

You can do a thread about CWm and TWRP on speed 7 developement. By the way when the source will be release, i will creat cm12.1 rom, you will help to do this if there some bug ? (i will received my zopo about 10 sept)
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] ghost45:
Hi Flavien,

I have already opened this thread about the recovery.. I not think is good to open one other about the recovery.

About the source... I know that Mediatek seems will release them in the next month... But i don't know the real date.

About the help to build one new rom is always one great and good idea to change opinions and to change hands.. Yes.
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] bigrammy:
Hi bro,

Just some advice here as we have already been down this road with the Elephone P6000. :o

1. CWM recovery is pretty much dead as of KitKat 4.4.4 and is not supported in Lollipop 5.0 > so any CWM recovery's are likely to have been compiled using KK. This means they will never be 100% perfect for your Lollipop 5.1 device. :(

2. The TWRP I have ported for you is obviously working and has been compiled for Lollipop so If you had a working touch I am sure it would be 100% perfect. :good:

So what should you do ??

1. Get on to Zopo and demand they fix the touch in the Kernel :mad: I would guess it's a goodix GT9xx touch screen the same as the Elephone :laugh:

2. You could still use the CWM to do most things like flash supersu.zip to root etc etc.

3. You could probably use TWRP with a Mouse and OTG cable too. ;)

4. Once rooted you can use wanam's Partitions Manager Here To back and even restore you partitions but it's a little slow Thread Here :good:

5. Last but not least use SPFlashtools for backup and restore. :good:

Regards bigrammy.
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] ghost45:
Hi Bro,

Thanks for the answer, but actually we are waiting for the source from Mediatek.

When i will have some little time ...first, i want to create a new porting with cwm to have, almost, one recovery usable.

After yes probably we must studied these new sources....when their will arrive.

I have not tried it yet, as my Speed 7 has not arrived so far, but I have used the apps mentioned in this Zopo thread before on other phones. You can try them to see if they work

The best option is to get the root via a recovery image with a SuperSU zip, but this is not available yet.
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] bigrammy:

yes, that's the best way. Or just do factory setting, if the format user data & cache is not available.

---------- Post added at 10:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 AM ----------

When you use the SP Flash, you select 'download only', and not use the other options: 'format all' & 'firmware update'
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] franciros:
So do i've to use SP Flashtools or recovery?

Inviato dal mio JY-S3 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] bigrammy:
I can see no reason for this not to work on the zopo speed7 or any other mt6753 device with stock Android 5.1 :confused:

Maybe someone else could try it to see if there is a problem.
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] berlin51:
Use the recovery to format user data, etc. Then power down the phone.

For ROM flashing, use the SP Flash tool, and if you need to check on the process you look here:

http://global.zopomobile.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=382

The 2 main points are to make sure that windows can recognize the phone in device manager when its is plugged in.

Then, with the phone unplugged from the computer, you start the SP Flash tool as admin, select the scatter file, click the green download button, then plug the phone in without the battery. The SP Flash tool will now see the phone & flash the ROM.

My device have 5.1 but at the end of procedure post reboot the Phone Blocked on Zopo logo

[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] berlin51:
Concerning the possibility that the zip-flash via recovery did or should work, the first reboot after a zip flash can take a long, long time to get to the phone desktop.

Maybe 5 minutes or so, after the first reboot.
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] franciros:
Ahhh... Repeat the procedure? Or reboot the Phone and attend?

Inviato dal mio JY-S3 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] berlin51:
yes, reboot and wait. At the same time, prepare everything for the ROM flash in case you need it.

Of course, you could repeat the zip flash to check it again. Nothing to lose if you try again.

But, in any case,the Zopo logo will hang for a time after a zip flash and also after a ROM SP tool flash.
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] franciros:
the download of ROM from site Zopo is very very slow, alternative site from download? The phone is on but not restart, is on from 10 minutes....
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] berlin51:
Try the ROM download again, and also try the download with a different browser. I got it with the Chrome browser OK.

I have not seen it anywhere else, although you could google the name to see if its available somewhere else.

Which ROM do you need; Speed 7 or 7 Plus? If you cannot get hold of it, I can upload the Speed 7 stock ROM, not the 7 Plus, to my Google drive & PM the link to you, but that will take a while.
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] franciros:
My phone is Speed 7 Plus....but if I reinstall the SuperSU from recovery while waiting to download the ROM, it is possible that it works?
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] berlin51:
yes, the ROM download is slow. Same for me.

---------- Post added at 11:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:53 AM ----------

I would test the zip flash again, as it may work a second time. Nothing to lose.

Then, if you want or need, do SP flash when the ROM is downloaded.
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] franciros:
wipe data/factory reset first the recovery zip?
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] berlin51:
no, do not wipe/ factory reset if you are just doing the zip-root flash.

The wipe data/factory reset is only done before the SP flash tool stock ROM flash.

---------- Post added at 12:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:06 PM ----------

Yes I understand your question now: yes, I guess it might be useful to do a factory reset first, before the second zip-flash . It may help.

Generally, the root-zip flash should work at any time. So, you may have installed apps & account details on your phone & then you zip-flash the root access and return to the phone desktop with everything as it was. In other words, there is no need to do a factory reset before setting up the root access.

As you may have to flash the stock ROM, it will be useful to go here to get the latest SP flash tool:

[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] franciros:

why?
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] berlin51:
Not sure about that message. Did you start the SP flash as admin?

---------- Post added at 01:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:01 PM ----------

Perhaps wait until the other stock ROM has downloaded, and try that

---------- Post added at 01:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:03 PM ----------

Just a guess on this PMT message: you could try to flash using the 'firmware upgrade' option in SP flash tool. However, I have not tried that before.

The only real problem I have heard about when re-flashing a phone is the lose of the IMEI numbers, but as they on the box & written under the battery, they can be re-written into the system when you get to the phone desktop

Hi bro I already posted a booting TWRP 2.8.7.0 some days ago Here but it was reported that no touch was present does this one solve that problem :confused:

Sorry you had so many problems with the root .zip bro :o

When you flashed the ROM with SPFlashtools and got the PMT warning that means the partitions have changed nothing to do with the root.zip. So this means there are 2 speed7 ROM versions and it's not just a regular update ROM :confused:

Can someone please clarify what ROM's are available and their differences maybe the they fixed the touch in the latest version :confused:

Can someone please post the boot.img and recovery.img from the latest ROM so I can check the kernels. :fingers-crossed:

[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] bigrammy:
Thanks for the reply bro. :good:

It seems It's just the screen size then that's different between the 7 and 7+ :eek:

As for PMT the solution is to simply do a Firmware Upgrade that should prevent loss of imei too. Formating as shown in the video will guarantee loss of imei and is not advised :eek: this should only be done to recover a properly bricked phone.

Maybe someone would be so kind as to post both the 7+ boot.img and recovery.img and the 7 boot.img and recovery.img so I do not have to download both full ROM's .

We could do with 2 tester also one with a 7 and one with a 7+ so we can test both Kernels in the same recovery.
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] berlin51:
Good point on the PMT solution. The video was worthwhile, as I had not known about this PMT problem.

I have ordered the non-plus 7, and will certainly look forward to try out any recovery-image / root-zip.

Good...hope it helps.

Only recently started with Droid Tools to look into the android phone system, so I cannot help at the moment.

I looked into Android ADB tools a while back, but I did not have much use for it at the time.

I will learn a bit more with Droid Tools when the 7 arrives, I guess.

TWRP Speed7 none plus

Someone to Test this none plus Speed7 TWRP Recovery for touch function etc.

TWRP Asking to mount system or not is normal and nothing to fear.

If touch works you will need to find and rename recovery_from_boot scripts and their .bak's too in /system also reports of others in /etc maybe other places too. :eek:

If not the recovery will be replaced with stock on reboot and this will take time so do not think you've bricked your phone. ;)

hi all,

so this kernel fix for touch recoveryes can be implemented by us if we have source code? or it needs zopo directly to put fix in the kernel?

So is the same for Elephone P6000 Pro and Siswoo C55.. they share the same Gt99** touch supplier!
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] bigrammy:
The only Manufacturer I know whom managed to fix this issue are UMi on the Hammer (mt6732) and Just5 on the Blaster/Elephone P6000 nobody actually knows the what they did to fix things but I think it was more than simply ticking a option before building the Kernel.

I have emailed Goodix and Mediatek with no reply at all. :mad:

I would advise all people Thinking of buying a Mediatek based phone not to do so if it has a Goodix Touchscreen.

Both Mediatek and Goodix need to fix this problem as it's source driver related :mad:
[Zopo Speed 7 Plus] copeppe:
So, let me understand.... actually is not possible to have a TWRP recovery on Zopo speed 7 because of kernel's problem that cause problems to touch screen?

This is a bug or what? And this kernel's problem involve other problems to our device?

Reading bigrammy in the last post will be really hard to find a solution if only UMI and someone for Elephone have solved the problem...
