2 Sim WCDMA / GSM (sim supports Normal Sim)
2G: GSM 900/1800/Mhz (NOT 850 and has a frequency of 1900MHz)

Please confirm
3g support: WCDMA 2100Mhz ONLY?
2g support 900/1800/1900
All my research on this phone has concluded it actually is:
3g support WCDMA 850/2100
2g support: GSM 900/1800MHz
can you please use mobile uncle tools mtk to confirm the radios, the 3g WCDMA 850 band is very important for me!
thanks in advance

Got mine today
http://colonelzap.blogspot.de/2013/04/zopo-zp980-scorpio-mt6589-quad-core.html

This phone, I just love the specs!
Might be a good replacement for my galaxy s+ which is slowly dying...
I guess it is hard to go wrong with this one?
Question now is - will it be supported by developers?

Dear Flamery,
in the next days i receive my zp980 and a make several test.

i find this for you:
Dual sim Dual standby, but Dual Band
we find Dual sim support 3g network on mtk6589 chip, but not dual 3g stanby, wcdma+gms, or gsm+wcdma, and sim1 come with mini card as iphone 4, zopomobileshop.com will send with free cutter sticker, and we have pay special attention to the internet frenquency 2G: GSM 900/1800MHz
3G: WCDMA 850/2100 MHz, seems that it will not work well in america and south amerian countries sim operator, before you would like to buy one, you have better have a check with your sim card provider, here are some info i found on wiki, hope it help: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_country_code, or

thanks so much Ghost!
yes WCDMA 850/2100 is the frequency I need here in New Zealand! I hope its supported.
Also I think there may be a difference between the Chinese version and the international version of this phone so maybe the OP had the Chinese version!
And I am sure Zopo are releasing the premium version of this phone soon which has 2gb ram and a larger battery (2500mAh I think) But there is a problem on all phones with using 2gb ram and the MTK chip so I think once that issue is resolved, there is going to be a flood of phones all released at the same time: Jiayu S1/G4, neo n003, Nubia Z5, Newman N3, iconean X7, Umi X2...

The chipset didn't support 2Gb RAM so they have had to create a hardware fix:
sorry i cannot post links yet but here is the statement:
"The X2 suffered from a rather important set-back, basically the phone was announced to ship with a quad-core MT6589 CPU and 2GB RAM, despite the chip not offering support for that amount of RAM! UMi aren’t the only ones though Jiayu, iOcean and others have all promised the same and are all working on fixes."
"This weekend we reported that the UMi X2 would be delayed due to an optimisation problem with running 2GB RAM with the quad-core MT6589 processor. After posting the article we were inundated with emails, comments and Facebook messages asking us if the reports are true. Today we managed to get on the phone with our contact at UMi (a manager at the company) to confirm the delay.
Our contact at UMi confirms that the UMi X2 has been delayed, but that they are working to optimise the phone and hope to launch the X2 by April.
I have also asked our contact to confirm a few details regarding international availability, and he promises to get back to me as soon as possible."
"The X2 looks to have been just one step away from heading in to full production, the pesky issue with compatibility between the quad-core Mediatek MT6589 processor and 2GB RAM. The first hint we had that the problem had been fixed was when the No.1 P7 mini Pad got an official launch date, and now it seems UMi have got a fix too."

I LOVE those "subjective" questions
Stability? You mean as in build quality? In my opinion very good.
Battery? Good question! I bet you could drain the battery in a couple hours but it might also last several days, it depends on a million things
Speed? O.k., I guess?!? The stock launcher is a little laggy some times, that's why I always use different launchers. Of course this high screen resolution takes aways a little speed compared to other phones with the same amount of RAM and the MT6589 cpu.
Feel? I really like the feel
Three things that makes this phone better than any other Chinese phone I had so far are:
1) The display! I've never seen anything like that before. Zopo claims it is a LTPS (low temperature poly silicon) TFT display. To be honest, I didn't even know something like that existed Whatever that is, it looks great! Fantastic viewing angles and very nice contrast / colors. It's too bad something like that can't be captured in a video.
2) The sound quality when using GOOD(!!!!!) headsets. Again, I have NO IDEA what's different in this phone but the sound is amazing!
3) The GPS: Super fast fix and I got an accuracy up to 1.7 meters!

Good question?!? The Zp980 isn't exaclty cheap, you can probably get a phone with similar specs but with a lower screen resolution much cheaper. I guess it depends on what's important to you, that's a decission everyone needs to make for themselves.
Edit: One more things: I love the fact that this baby supports OTA firmware updates. That is something you don't see too often on Chinese phones and defintely NEVER on those "Shanzhai" no-name phones

How is the dual SIM functionality? When sending an SMS or making a call how do you select which SIM? on android 2.3 you have to drag the top bar down to select, is it same is 4.1? When reciving a call or text does it indicate which SIM is has been recieved via?

You can either set standards or you can always be asked which sim card should be used. The two sim cards are always labled when you miss a call or if a sms was received. Let me attach some pictures, hope that helps

Porting VibeUI from Lenovo K4 Note

hi every one ,
VibeUi , is one of the most amazing and fast Ui you might see , its smooth , colourful and eyecandy it can make us all reThink again about our p8000 , Elephone gave us
a little taste of it last September but it didn't continue its work in fixing some major issues , like the Bluetooth and sim activation , but now we have a better chance to make it work even better ,
The Lenovo K4 Note is the closest smartphone to our Elephone p8000
It has the same processor Mtk6753 , same dimensions and the fingerprint and other specs , so developer wont have hard time porting VibeUi to p8000
here is the stock rom for the K4 note
http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/stock-rom-lenovo-k4-note-t3312345
here is also the opensource code files for the K4 Note
http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds105347
so , is there anyone intrested to make our dream come true???

sure some of the developers of the P8000 will be interested and we can help . Thank you very much for the contribution. I hope soon enjoy this great rom .

I will try to port this. Expect results in 12 hours.

I think P8000 already has vibe...

you could also try to port the rom. everyone started somewhere. and we (the devs) already don't have much time. we do it only in our freetime. and i personally will sell the phone very soon, so also no time to try the port. sorry
PS. maybe i will make a tutorial how to port roms on the 64bit MTK chips. but i don't promise this, everything depends on time

any contribution would be wonderful for this great ROM. It is excellent with the vibe 2.9 but never polished some failures gps, sim card. languages, bluetooth. ​​among other small details but if you touch this would be great. Dr. infinitely appreciate your interest root. sincerely!!

Thank you for the share, I already tried it some months ago. It works with 2 devices really similar (P8000 and Bluboo xtouch), however not in all case !

Is possible to port worse TW lollipop to S4 Mini ?

Samsung says memory limitations. hmm, why a3 2015 has lollipop ? A3 HAS 1GB RAM. 2 cores not has problems to run lollipop.
Why I'm say worse ? Samsung's all devices, only S4 mini and s3 neo has Snapgragon 400. but s3 neo has 720p display, s4 mini has 540p display.
Yea, great developer edit s3 neo lollipop port rom to had compatible qHD display. but s3 neo has cortex a7, s4 mini has krait 300
But I don't know who is succesfully ported 5.1 to s3 neo. note 3 neo has 720p but has exynos ???
Next device is A3 2015 but it has 64-bit cpu. blablabla...
Possible ?

i'm unable to understand devs here in s4 mini section , they dont even try , and not even respond when its about it !
there must be a way to do it , do you know any turo on how to port lollipop to kitkat devices ?

Maybe the only way to do that will be creating from cm sources with an existing ROM with another skin. Time ago, when I got my galaxy ace I tried a ROM that was a jellybean port, that was far from TW 2.X look and feel.

adityapal(adizmayazal) tried it but as far as I know unfortunately he got too many force closes, issues

J2 is worse device than s4 mini. Than J2 has exynos 3. I don't know

the system of the Samsung TouchWiz and wonderful it would be really nice if by cm code could pull off a 6.0 tw must recreate a kernel using cm code and the operative part of a s5 32bit taking just enough like the Samsung app panel tiles the dialer contacts the settings panel the music player and the gallery would be fantastic removing the fingerprint sensor and all the other things that a stock s4 not has a beautiful rom would come and certainly turned better than KitKat well optimized with marshmallow

you can not take the base of s5 and developing an area compatible with our new cyanogen mod comes out when you do not take the google code and spread to most of the devices can not do the same with TouchWiz from a new kernel

SM-N7502 Not even getting KITKAT, How can I get it myself?

Hello,
My friend owns a Samsung Note 3 Neo (N-7502) and he wants to update it because it never got any updates from Samsung from the day he got it (Still running 4.3 and other versions at 5.1.1 already....)
I know there's more than a topic of discussions about this, but there's no answers so I thought the people who could help didn't notice this...
It could be CyanogenMod or anything else, just something newer, better.
He could sacrifice the usage of the 2nd sim card for now if that's the only way.
Please if you know a way, help.
Thanks

My girlfriend owns one too. I've searched in a lot of places, but people said that installing something of the single SIM variants on a dual SIM one won't work. If someone knows how to make it work, please tell us.

*Bump*
I've searched a lot for a solution but I couldn't find any.
Would installing a different model's (N7505) rom work?
Would it even boot up?

It is a totally different phone
Duos variant is qualcomm based while other variants are exynos so no ROM other than stock will work for it for now
There is some hopeful trials to build cm12.1 ROM by Firelord but till the moment we are speaking there is nothing
Hope for the best
Best Regards

I had higher hopes.. According to PhoneArena the 750 variant is the one with Qualcomm and the duos (7502) is similar to 7505 processor wise.
Is that wrong?

See that page :
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_note_3_neo_duos-6015.php
Also i got build.prop which confirms this
Also all kernel sources from Samsung
Knowing that the device is qualcomm based gives me hope that it may get CM ROM
Anyway, We need some attention from more developers
Best Regards

I'm not sure developers will bother.. But I hope they will.
I don't understand the reason for this... Qualcomm is the most popular processor manufacturer of CPUs so it'd be easier to create a ROM or edit an existing one to work on this phone... I don't understand why the exynos ones are getting more attention.

According to https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ MSM8228 board is used by Samsung G800H (Galaxy S5 mini) and N7502. Also google shows HTC Desire 816 Dual Sim based on the same board and looks like that's all. But these other devices already have custom roms.

Please build a ROM for sm n7502 dual sim variant

Im sure that s6edge+ will recieve it too, because these are the same device. only diffdrence is the screen size.

I never heard about lineage lol are they good? but having more roms is always good

That's not the only difference, is has more RAM for example. I didn't do much comparing but S6 and S6E+ are wayyyy different in my opinion hence no support from LineageOS.

Ram, screen size, resolution. does not really affect much. so im sure that s6edge+ will get it too.
(edit) by the way, gsmarena says that s6 is planned to get oreo update.

Thanks for the comparison.
It was said that this information about Oreo update is unofficial.
However if we do receive that update we will be the last phone to get it.
So I predict no sooner than June 2018 (let's not be too optimistic).

I hope lineage os team Works in an official build for the s6 edge plus!!!

Yes, that's correct. But the problem is that: there is much less owners of S6E+ than the number of owners of S6 or S6E

And at the same time the custom roms World is not going through its best moment. And the lineage os team is not as big as Cyanogenmod was. They don't have to many members to develop roms for all divices like Cyanogenmod used to. It better give time to time and keep updated with the news.
So keep this thread open!!!!

Good to know! Thanks for sharing that important info about a smaller amount of ppl in LineageOS than in Cyanogenmod.
And I intended to keep this topic open from the beggining. I can not wait for the official release for Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus - the best phone Samsung made till S9/S9+ (maybe, cause I didnt test the new Galaxys).
