I've ordered one, but It will be shipped on the 2nd of may. As far as I've read the zp980 rom is fully compatible with the C2. This will most probaly mean that any custom rom for the 980 will work on the C2.
The rooting method is the same for all the MTK quadcore phones out there (hence a few exeptions), so that won't be a problem.

I bought one in Hk thru Taobao.com and I flashed it to Android 4.2.1 and is pre rooted.
Very fast and smooth after changed to Android 4.2.1. Ali OS is very laggy and slow.
The screen is fantastic, the color and viewing angle are actually better than my LG optimus G pro.
Too bad the phone doesnt support 4g and battery only 2000mah. The phone feels quite plastic too.
Overall the phone is quite decent as long as u install Android on it.

can you please provide the full tutorial and requiered files, thanks

http://forum.zopomobileshop.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=397&fromuid=13374
I would like to share with you a root tool that worked with me for ZOPO ZP980/ C2/ZP810 MTK6589 and should work on most similar devices too.
First off, let me say that I did not develop this schtuff and all thanks should go to those that did. Special thanks to YIDONGSHUSHU for all their work.
General Disclaimer:
Use these tools and this guide at your own risk. Doing these things wrong/improperly/etc. has the ability to completely ruin your device and YOU assume all risk and responsibility if that happens.
Also note that rooting WILL violate the manufacturers warranty on the device making it ineligible for warranty repair. If you have insurance on the device however, they MAY still replace it for the cost of your deductible.
STEP1. Turn on Debugging on your Phone
●Open Settings
●Select "Developer options" in the System section
●Check the box for "USB Debugging"
●Press "OK" to confirm.
STEP2.Plug you phone up to your computer using the USB cable and allow the drivers to install.
If you are using Windows, ensure you have installed the latest MTK USB drivers available for your phone........
and How to have rights Root on Zopo Zp980
http://forum.zopomobileshop.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=337&fromuid=13374
I hope this useful.

I am waiting for my c2.Those who are using what they feel about the phone and what about the camera and battery life.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

Just today I received my C2. Compared to my old Motorola Defy, the phone is really huge.
It came with Android 4.2 preinstalled, I just had to root it. But there is one thing that's bothering me. Since the ROM is apparently for Zopo ZP980, it report incorrectly the size of internal storage. Furthermore I would like to disable it at all as user accessible memory and use all 4GB for apps.

Newbie Guide
Sry noob question but do I need to root before flashing the rom?
Thanks.
@kaunlunlee
can you pls provide step by step tutorial for newbie like me?
Thanks a lot..

so! anyone has a little review to saciate us? who have the phone aready can tell us how is the screen or the camera or the speakers...

Welcome bro.

Need some help
Development team! I really need some help. I have a blu life PURE (Rebrand Gionee Elife e6 - Mediatek 6589T). My last rom was COLOR OS Rom for QMobile Z4 (also rebrand Elife Gionee e6) , everything great, but I wanted to try another rom, so I flashed via CWM the rom z4Amigo for Qmobile, but it gave error status 7 on CWM, and I couldn't Install it. I already had wiped data and factory reset, now my phone is stuck on boot logo. I tried to flash other rom with SP Flash Tools, I use windows 8.1, my blu is recognized normally, but SP always gives error 8037, even if the scatters are with the same values! Now, I do not know what to do, maybe the problem is with my SP FLASH TOOLS, maybe with my Windows, I don't know, I can't mount USB storage with CWM recovery, what would save me! So, I see no solution, I would be thankfully if someone could help! Thanks in advance =)

Mstar S700 (Review) 5.5" HD, Touch ID, MTK6752, 4G LTE, Android 5.0, 2GB RAM/16GB ROM

Mstar S700 (Review) 5.5" HD, Touch ID, MTK6752, 4G LTE, Android 5.0, 2GB RAM/16GB ROM
The Mstar S700 is the EVIL twin to the Mlais M7 it is very similar in design and specifications, but the Mstar is up to 40 USD cheaper. But does not have touch buttons with backlight like the Mlais M7 does. Also the rear camera is only an OmniVision OV and not Sony IMX135 like in the Mlais M7. And last but not least, the S700 comes with 2GB RAM, where the M7 has 3GB RAM. So they are not exact the same.

No, as cameras (and then also drivers) are different, also only the Mlais have backlight in the touch buttons, also controlled by software.

Have anyone found the original stock ROM yet for the phone?

mlais and mstar is not the same, before you flash something that you dont know, make sure that you have a stock rom from mstar, but that moment mstar dont have it for customers, so, you can brick the phone, first make a copy from your boot and your recovery with adb and than you can flash first the recovery from mlais, only recovery first, if works, maybe yes, you can root without the boot, by the way, my mstar arrives tomorrow and i can make more test.

Yeah actually I wrote these steps. But before we do it like that we need the original scatter file and original recovery.
The scatter I included in the RAR file is only for the Mlais M7 not for the Mstar, so please don't use that on the Mstar. Only the recovery is needed to flash, not the boot.

i am starting a forum for mstar users, is for spanish people but english is welcome too.

Right ! I'm waiting... The problem with this phone is the little space in internal for installing applications (1,94 GB). We need to root for move applications on SD card with SDlink or others.

yes sir, GT9XX_hotknot..
Sorry bro, CWM recovery created has some issues.
After loaded correctly, it restarts the C55 after some seconds (10-15) and .. also without using any functions of CWM.
It's very strange and first time in my experience so far..
Any suggestion? can you help me to find solution ?

Ok thanks for the confirmation.
Not sure about the CWM maybe we are now just finding it's limits with LP5.1 and the newer SoC.
After all we are still using something made for the mt6595 on KK.
This is why we really need a working touch as TWRP will soon be the only recovery able to cope with the new android versions (M) and SoC's
I will have a play with CWM when I get the phone.

how did you installa Xposed?
i's only possible to install xposed with double step procedure
1- install xposed zip from custom recovery (according to arm 64 bit cpu and sdk22 for android 5.1)
2- install the apk after reboot
no other ways.. or if you try, you have for sure bootloop

Yeah I did it that way. I finally managed to install Xposed, but it actually made a factory reset. That wouldnt bother me, but the home button, the notification bar and the data did not work anymore.

Yes, I used OTG mouse! I finally managed to put xposed on my phone. I deinstalled greenify before xposed installation and it worked. I don't know if that was the poblem, but it seems like.
Thanks for your help!

Just got it today bro :victory:
I spent all day trying to get Philz, CWM to stay booted and stop force closing
I even gave TWRP a shot in the vain hope I could get the touch to work but no luck.
Still I did manage to get @carliv CWM v3.3 working :victory:
I just need to fully test it first by doing some backups, restores, wipes, etc etc :fingers-crossed:
I am going to bed now for some well earned sleep :laugh:

Very good news... and very good work! [emoji106] [emoji4]

CWM and Philz Recovery
Well here are the fixed versions ported by me for the Siswoo C55 (Still no touch that's a kernel issue not a recovery one)
First is @carliv CWM (Swipe version it has slightly larger font which I prefer being old :laugh: ) Thread here for thanks
Next is @yuweng Philz recovery very Thread here for thanks
Be sure to visit both the above and give thanks to them.
I have siad it before and will say it again that without @carliv original work NONE of mt67xx 64bit based devices would have a custom recovery it's all thanks to carliv's original efforts that anyone has a custom recovery on these devices. So Big thanks to carliv :highfive:
Big thanks also to my friend @yuweng again without yuweng's original MTK development we would be years behind where we are now. :highfive:
I have Posted both recovery's on needrom here
PS: Do not mirror or host these elsewhere please
Simply link to this post or needrom so that proper credit is given to the right people.
Don't forget to hit my thanks button too :laugh:

Official Launch (blog)
Ulefone has just released a new 5-inch device named Ulefone U007 (yes, 007!), a budget phone with low specs but also with low price (they declare more or less 60 USD).
As a 5-inch device, it is a pretty compact smartphone supported by HD (720p) resolution, good enough for a small device.
U007 is equipped with Sony IMX149 camera (8MP), interpolated to 13MP, supported by the 5-piece lens kit and F/2.0 aperture. Ulefone says the 2MP front camera, interpolated to 5MP, will offer above-average experiences. (maybe some software additions?)
It packs the quad-core chipset MTK6580A (clocked at 1.3GHz) which should be sufficient for daily use and according to Ulefone official video, racing games like NFS: Most Wanted runs quite smoothly on this device.
It will come with Android 6.0 pre-installed, and Ulefone promises they’ll constantly release OTA Updates to improve the software as they do for their other products.
Similar to the Ulefone Vienna, it features an unified plastic body with brushed finishing, but this time that haven't adopted the side-mounted SIM tray on it. Instead, they choose to allow users to take the cover off to get access to the SIM cards slot (separated) and MicroSD card slot.
Also this one, just like the Vienna, has adopted the BOX sound chamber for better music experience, so speaker quality should be pretty good.

Disclaimer: I do not own this device, do not ask me support question because i won't be able to reply you.

Has anyone received this phone?
Almost over a month of ordering and everbuying.net has still not shipped it yet, saying to wait another 10 to 15 days.

Hi there,
I am interested in this U007, but worry about the security at all... u guys know that the China co. produced phone always has the Backdoor, Trojans.... does any one tested the build-in rom, any abnormal traffic back to China?

Hi All,
I'm also looking for the root for the ulefone u007

Bump, any info on how to root? I have tried Kingroot but it's not supported. Great phone for the price, and thanks for the review @TechUtopia, keep up the good work!

Anyone managed to root yet? Or better yet get a custom ROM working? The stock one is good but it would be nice to get something fresh.

Is your system up to date? The IMG file is for the latest Version. Can you you find the folder /su and the file /init.superuser.rc ?
