DESCRIPTION
Hi all
This is the first REAL kitkat rom for zopo 980/990, is entirely (kernel and android) compiled by me from mediatek source
everythings works, only some minor bug are present…but it's only the first public release
changelog:
09/10 – Ver 1.0.7
- Wifi Tweak (little improved speed and stability)
- Flash sync tweak
- Front camera up to 8MPX in Third-party app (only 3MPX in stock camera app)
- Radio FM app now works without headphone
- AROMA: mod for remove reboot option in powermenu
- AROMA: mod for install a new boot logo by aquilacd70
- AROMA: mod for switch back to use Superuser instead of Kinguser
02/10 Ver 1.0.6_new
- changed some commands in flash script, if you are unable to flash the 1.0.6 try with this new version
01/10 – Ver 1.0.6
- root : switched from superuser app to kinguser app
- vendor lib: updated the precompiled vendor lib
- wifi: different firmware files
- wifi: tweak some power parameters
- display: now in aroma you can select the display resolution (FullHD or HD). the HD resolution is nice for boost graphical speed in games
- kernel : fix for working softkey in HD resolution
some info about resolution HD and FULLHD
in the version 1.0.6 i have created a script for set the display resolution (and DPI) in HD or FULLHD.
HD resolution help a lots in games.
to change the resolution during the flash just activate (or deactivate) the option in aroma, enable if you want to use the HD resolution, disable if you want to use the FullHD.
every time you want to change the resolution just flash the rom with the option you want (you need flash because it is necessary to change the kernel depending on the resolution chosen)
There are 2 little problems:
- the first boot after changing the resolution (only the first time) there may be icons with wrong size (too big or too small) in the status bar and launcher, just reboot for fix
- at HD resolution the boot animation is correct, but a few seconds before completing the boot becomes huge, it's just a visual bug

10/09 – Ver 1.0.0
- first public release
know bug:
- camera stock show only 8MPX, with other app (camera360, google camera etc) u can select 13MPX
- the compass works but is not accurate as on JB
- the vibration is low compared to JB
- ART not work (for now…)
- maybe other…let me know
for enable/disable the function sweep2wake, doubletap2wake and pocket detect i have created a script.
just install a terminal emulator and write:
su
sets2w
and set to 0 what u want to disable
pocket detect use the proximity sensor for disable s2w/dt2w when phone is in pocket (or when the sensor is covered by something)
need this recovery to flash this rom, also need a full wipe (if u update from previous version u can wipe only cache and dalvik)
In aroma installer u can select if flash for zopo 980, 990 or C3
for 980 and 990 there is a 2 variant, A and B (differ only in the rotation of the screen)
try first with the A version, if screen in landscape mode is upside down reflash with the B version
there is also an alternative version with different proximity driver, if proximity sensor does not work try with this

Member Info
I installed the new version 1.0.5 with new c2 A zopo c2 platinum band and works perfectly: the operation of the compass was corrected, the new band seems to work better and the proximity sensor is also present.
Thank you very much, Paolo
Hello, do you see any significant reason to upgrade from 1.0.4 to the latest 1.0.5? Im satisfied with 1.0.4, c2/1gb/16gb a version.
In case i want to upgrade and want to mantain the apps i have installed i just clear cache and dalvik cache?
TIA
+1 for me with apporte 980t 2gb/32gb
I have a problem when rotating the screen, turn error screen when watching video and playing games
Read comments it’s write
cuongpromem try to flash the other version! if you flashed A try B or the opossite…
Thank you have successfully
Any Chance to See 4.4.4 soon?
Running 1.0.5 on C2 16GB version A now. Compas works fine now. Youtube app now too (didnt know why it was not working ok on 1.0.3). Brightness auto still choppy, for now I put it on manual brightness. Thanks paolothlw8 for the great work!
can you fix the flash? when I make a picture in the dark, i can't see anything
beside that the battery consumption is a bit high – but the best and fastest rom i tried on my C2 1gb ram
I found a solution that works with the phone turned on wifi. The application is called "redeye sleep toggle" the On Options "cpu awake only". If anyone knows how this could otherwise resolve to help me. The problem is when the display turns off on the standby mode can not be activated again, only reset helps. Also option on the call setting-voice call-additional-setings caller ID does not remember state after reset. If there is help write here. Thank you.
There are still some GPS-related problems: When switching off GPS and switching it on again, it does not keep its settings for precision: It always starts up with high precision settings – no matter which precision mode was set before (f. e. only device, without using WiFi/3G to find position). I suppose, GPS always uses WiFi/3G to find position, no matter if another precision mode is chosen or not. This could be the reason why location is not shown in any location-related apps (weather apps, …).
Next problem: In Standby mode sometimes, device becomes hot in the first third above and eats lots of battery percent in a very short amount of time. Can only be solved by rebooting.
Leaving these points beside, this ROM is really good work! By the way, my device is ZP980/C2 32/2GB.
Still having big problems with 3G, no matter which Rom i put on, i get very slow 3G connection, i have changed APN settings and made no difference, any help here would be great, wish i never upgraded to 1.0.5.
Still having problems with sensor everytime when engaging a call but rom is improving in other ways. Great work Paolo!
