I welcome everybody to the thread about the upgraded ZP980.
ZP980 vs ZP980+
The + version is supposed to be the exact same hardware as the ZP980, only with double the internal memory and RAM.
Why a separate thread for this variation?
Many people have pointed out that this model is basically the same as the ZP980 except for the size of the RAM and the internal storage (2GB vs 1GB and 32GB vs 16GB respectively).
The discussion is still going on in the ZP980 thread. Until it is 100% confirmed that everything works exactly the same for both phones, I am planning to keep this thread. Except if XDA decides differently of course.
In any event, this thread was not created to compete with the ZP980 thread. Personally I follow that one too and participate in the discussion. This thread here only exists as a point of reference for confirmed methods, tricks, ROMs and recoveries for the ZP980+.
Can I try ROMs and other stuff I find in the thread for the standard ZP980?
I would say yes, with some caution.
In case you try something that works or -even more important- something that does not work, please be kind and share with us in this thread. This way you are helping the community take the most out this excellent piece of hardware and avoid mistakes.

My ZP980+ is waiting for me in Greece. I'll have it in a couple of weeks since I live in Switzerland.
But I couldn't wait to open this thread and prepare for what I need to do.
Has anybody already received it?
Did you manage to root it?
I managed rooting it via ERoot. I learnt that this is the only possibility to get rooted new zopo generation. Would be glad if there were another also working with linux. But as far as I know, there has not been any yet.
Dimitris, will you keep 1st post of this thread actual? It would be useful, if any custom ROM fully compatible with this model were linked in this opening thread as well as root tools and other useful tooling.

I am planning to keep the 1st post up to date IF nobody else offers to do it (I am sure XDA can change the poster of the OP if we ask them to, I have seen it done in other forums).
I only started this thread because I wanted to make a clear distinction and avoid bricking my device (selfish me) and also help others avoid bricking their devices.
I will add in the OP any useful piece of information that I see posted in the thread, starting with Framaroot (by Jan1959) and ERoot (by you) will follow if you explain a bit more (either describe what you did or provide a link as Jan1959 did ).

Did you succeed with this method? If not, do you know anybody who did? I don't see this model in their list so I guess somebody should let them know so that they add it there.

I seems to be logical that it works, because I do not know a root method which works on zp980h, but does not on c2 platinum. C2 platinum can be found in compatibility list. It is the 1st model of the higher zopo generation.

I run the app and mine zopo 980 (2 GB ram en 32 GB rom delivered last week) is rooted.

This referred to Dimitris' allusion, that zp980h is not part of the compatibility list. I mean that older root methods (i. e. motorola apk exploit and so on) do not work any more with newer zopo devices. 1st of these devices is c2 platinum. Up to now, I have known only eRoot which is able to root it and zp980h. If framaroot works with this, it should also work with zp980h.
going to follow this, ordered mine 21/08 on mixeshop for shipment to belgium.
Hope it's on his way because they say 5 to 7 days and the 5 day is today and status is still processing but i read that chinese shops don't put a lot of effort on status changes, maybe anyone experience with this shop?
I used eroot and manage to root with one click without problems. win7 have installed all the necessary drivers automatic.

I had problems with eroot and the drivers on Win7.
But the method from the OP (Framaroot) worked for me great.
Just copied the file, installed the app. After that just opened, selected SuperSU and Boromir exploit). After that reboot and I have now root (already eliminated this annoying bootsound)
Thanks for the tip!

I bought it from zopomobileshop.com and they were just great with the updates and communication.
Framaroot does not work with zp980h. I have just tried - it is nothing more than root in the shell. This is not enough (at least not for me).

Framaroot did not work at all with my phone. Which version did you use? Did you upgrade to today's OTA-Upgrade before rooting?

Ok, then with new Upgrade for zp980h, it does NOT WORK any more. Old binaries are updated, but root access fails. Could you please verify that by upgrading and then trying to root again?
Can somebody show me a thread on XDA where Eroot is discussed?

After updating today the zopo was unrooted.
After starting framework1again the zopo was once again rooted.
Until now it works fine.

Hello Topicmates,
could you please provide me a step-by-step guide how to come back to factory state of the phone. I have a ZP980 2GB/32GB version.
I have rooted with framaroot, everything was ok. After that I have OTA updated with the latest update and now all the google apps are force closing. Therefore I want to revert back to Stock ROM and after it OTA update (an thereafter root again).
What do I need for that? Should I try at first simple factory reset?
Hey guys just need some help here.
Because of the release date is still due for germany i decided to buy the ZE551 ML online.
I ordered it at tinydeal.com. As it seems i now have an somewhat chinese Version where i cant even add an google account.
Also i have trouble installing Google-Playstore properly because it crashes all the time (as well as other Google apps, tried to figure out why but all online solutions didnt help)
A freind said this might happen because of no Google Account being registered.
What should i do in your opinion?
Best option is probably to flash it for some EU/NA Version right ?
then i should be able to add an google account and set up all the apps properly ?
Thank you for your help!

I accidentally bought the CN version myself
I read somewhere earlier this method should work to add gapps to the CN version. --> http://goo.gl/ea7bCv
Make sure and remove your previous PlayStore install before.
I didnt get mines yet, but if ur willing to try it, see if it helps!
If not then the pre-root img should do the trick --> http://goo.gl/7viYVt

You have posted your inquiry in Nexus 5X forum. You have Nexus 5. I have posted link to Nexus 5 help section in my previous response.
In a quest to replace the Chinese ROM on my tablet with the Taiwanese/global one, I found this helpful thread. Yet the key A5FMB19_update.zip file was missing. Luckily, after some search I managed to find a copy in the internet, together with the original A5CNB19.
Here are the files (re-uploaded to MEGA):
A5FMB19_update.zip (Taiwanese/global; with Google Play Services, Google Play Store, language supports, etc.)
A5CNB19_update.zip (Chinese)
Both are tested and confirmed working on my Nokia N1.
Thank you.
Hi, i just used the ROM file, and upgraded my old N1. Everything was just fine.
Many, many thanks to you, online.id. My N1 had been 'bricked' for over a year. Now it works well.
All the best wishes!
Also would like to confirm that both ROMs are working for me. I was searching for a long time now after I bricked my N1.
Many thanks.
Hi, the urls are dead, could you pls post it again or is there anyone that has the access to the zip. My N1s bricked and I did nothing other than using it as a bookreader.
PLEASE, I need help...

Hello
my Mi Mix 2 suddenly couldn't read my SIM Cards anymore and I even can't turn on wifi (turns itself off immediately). Both functions broke at the same time.
As nothing helped, I have done a factory reset. Now im stuck in the language selection screen, where I need to unlock the phone with my Mi Account first, which isn't possible because there is still no way to establish an internet connection.
My bootloader is locked and my last hope was unlocking it and flashing another/Stock ROM. But the unlocking Process with Mi Unlock always fails. (Can't get info, connect again at 50%; on my other PC it stops at 99%)
Can someone help me? I'm so lost.

Hey I have the exact same issue with my mi mix 2 no SIM no WiFi

Hi all, did you find any solution to get wifi working?
No I still can't do anything with the phone. Bought a new one by now.
And I don't trust this indian guy above with his instagram account and only one post on xda. Seems like a scam. If he has a solution, why shouldn't he share his information with us publicly?
Tried contacting xiaomi mail support, but the support is a ****show.
Well, where were you all, dear ones, I missed you for a year. I killed persist in August, but somehow I restored imei using Android 7. What the phone didn’t give out - but as an option it always worked with custom Android 9 wi-fi. Than just did not sew. In short, I bought mi 9, and tied it to the same battery. Mi mix 2 I blocked and gave up. But somehow everything decided to heat it over a gas stove and make a testpoint. On mi9 sat mi-room and did not think)). But somehow I decided to do mimix2 again and configure m: rolleyes: i box s in parallel. As a result - mi 9 is locked, it doesn’t see SIM cards, but there is wifi)) Mix is not even sewn even through testpoint, I have been listening to music on mi box for a month now and am writing with Chinese, Indians (sorry if I hit anyone). I’m even thinking, maybe the iPhone and to hell with these firmware, I’d better get married a second time. I got sick already, more electricity was spent on the firmware than these devices cost. (If you don’t understand anything, beat the Google translator - I’m just blowing it, I’m too lazy to write in any non-Russian languages): laugh :: la ...
