Hi, thank you for great review, could you take a couple of photos in maximum quality and resolution (for indoor and outdoor) and place them here please (or links to photo sharing site)
ReplyDeleteI just added three pictures :-)
DeleteThanks!
Deletei will buy the phone you recomend me, just pick one... Your favorite by far... Just one
ReplyDeleteis this phone same as zopo zp100. please list the diffrences
ReplyDeleteNo, the ZP100 has a different screen size and a different pixel resolution. Also, they look completely different ;-)
Deletefrom whole lot of mt6575 phone which do you think is the best i really confused.
ReplyDeleteSo am I because a lot of them are VERY similar. I think I still like the Zopo ZP100 the best but that can change VERY fast, I'm hoping to get my hands on a Zopo ZP300 soon :-)
Deletezopo zp300 and zopo field are same phones or different and some online website are listing zopo zp400 also, for 299$
DeleteI think the ZP300 is also called "ZP300 Field". I hope I'll know more once it is released (hopefully next week) and I get my hands on one of them.
DeleteHi Colonol Zap,
ReplyDeleteI was thinking of buying this model after looking through some youtube clips. But I also heard a lot of bad things about fastcardtech, and the good ones were said to be rigged. Did you buy all of your clones? How's the experience? How's the aftersales support? Also, what do you think of this model so far? I'm planning to keep it for at least a year so reliability is a definite must. Thanks a bunch
Hi there - any way to root it? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI haven't done it yet but I am confident this will work:

Thanks Colonel, as soon as I receive the phone next week I'll root it and let you know how it worked. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteDear colonelzap, i found i cellphon with QHD display, its a Htc one x S720e, a new one, not the apanda that you review, but the only thing there i see, is only have 512 of ram... Cpu have 1.8, 512 ram still good? i mean, theres to much diference between the 1G and the 512?
ReplyDeleteHi :-) If the phone has a MT6575 then the CPU speed is 1GHz and no more! In China they like to add numbers that can't be added. I think 512MB is enough, 1GB is "nice to have" but not necessary.
DeleteCan we please have a review of Zopo ZP 300?
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to get one soon :-)
Deletewhat's the build quality like?
ReplyDeleteHi. I can confirm that this phone can be rooted by the instructions in the link on this blog. It is working.
ReplyDeleteYes, it works, I tested it :-)
DeleteCan we have a review of Star W007?
ReplyDeleteHi
ReplyDeleteCan yo make skype video calls with this phone?
Can you confirm me it has auto focus and flash on the back camera?
ReplyDeletethx ;)
Yes, it does :-)
Deleteok because on fastcardtech comments they said it doesn't....
Deletedoes the Led on the bottom of the phone are used as notifications for missed call, SMS, email etc???
No, it doesn´t. It only lights up when you press the softtouch buttons.
DeleteOk thanks you a lot ;)
DeleteYou can buy this mobile at best price here http://www.comprarmovileschinos.es/x26i-movil-android-gps-wifi

Best regards and ty for post !!
I just finally root my new X26i. NICE!!!
ReplyDeletebut I steal have some trouble with the GPS it never synchronise????
do you have this kind of problem????
Thanks you
Hi ColonelZap,
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately i have bricked my Star x26i when trying to flash cmw recovery with Flash Tool and now it cant power on and nothing appears on screen, Also it is not Recognize by PC in Any mode. Do you have any idea or any method to fix it?
Someone can share his gps.conf in system/etc, please?
ReplyDeletebecause it maybe is the solution for the GPS not fixed problem....
Hi ColonelZap, do you think a custom recovery from e.g. haipai i9220 or star n8000 could work on the x26i?
ReplyDeleteHi :-)
DeleteI really don´t know :-( I´d be VERY careful to flash just "any" custom recovery, chances are you might brick your phone for good :-(
Fort information: to access to standard recovery on it you have to keep Vol+ button & Power together at start up.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info :-)
Deleteto access to the test item mode just boot the phone by keeping Power and Vol- buttons together.
DeleteUse the Vol+ and Vol- buttons to navigate in the menu and the center button (Home) to validate.
I share the Zopo toolbox that can be usefull for the one who have some trouble with GPS: https://www.box.com/s/e5d3f754e4e6e7e3785d
ReplyDeleteYou have to root your x26i before be able to use Zopo toolbox ;)
install it, then launch it, then go to "Power GPS Search", then click GPS SET, it will generate the gps.conf ;)
then close Zopo Toolbox and try again your GPS
Thank you so much for that :-)
DeleteNice Review..
ReplyDeleteThanks :-)

I had some trouble with Facebook app before this upgrade now it's good.
But I always have issues with the GPS :(
New owners reporting about new firmware - 20120803_e1809c_v75_jdt1. But i can`t find where it is availiable for download.
ReplyDeleteIch habe versucht das Teil wegen Wifi Problemen mittels des SPFLashTool auf eine neues Version zu updaten, wie es unter der root anleitung steht. Aber nach dem Punkt (in dem Programm) erasing eemc wollte Windows einen neuen Treiber installieren, hat es aber nicht hingekriegt und danach gings nicht mehr weiter.... Handy bootet auch logischerweise nicht mehr, wird aber noch vom Pc als MT Chipset oder so erkannt.... Das Programm gibt allerdings folgenden Fehler: Error: No Bootrom USB Port was found! COM6 is not a Bootrom (preloader) USB Port. Auto polling Number0.
ReplyDeleteSiehst du noch eine CHance es zu rettet oder ist es hinüber? ):
hatte das selbe problem.
ReplyDeletegeht immernoch mit dem "smart phone flash tool".
problem: ich habe keinen backup vom EFS folder gemacht. du denn?
Ich bekomme daher kein signal, und eine "unbekannte" imei mit der juni version.
