Hi,
Just got the phone in yesterday. Its beautiful. Well built and excellent display and response. It's 1.5Ghz processor version with 2Gb Ram and 32G Rom.
Android 4.2.1.
Kernel ver 3.4.5 &
Build 20130818 - 173942
This is my second chinese phone. First one was a star s5 which i sent back as would not connect in roaming mode only.
So i spent a bit more and got a better quality phone. But the ZP980 is let down by connection problems as well. There is 3G connection but only for 10mins or so and then switches over to roaming. A 'R' appears on the signal bars.
I contacted my network provider T-Mobile and went through all the APN settings and changed as necessary. But no luck. To get back a connection i go into settings
More -->Mobile Networks-->Network operators-->Automatically choose preferred network. Signal comes back on. But data connection goes off as well. So have to update that as well.
There are lots of people having similar issues with this phone on many forums but there seems to be no permanent solution. Some people have to keep taking the battery out to reset signal.
Anyone on this forum got any clues please? It's really a beautiful phone. Well manufactured ,slim ,light and very responsive. Would recommend to anyone but only with caution.
I haven't GPS etc for any other problems yet. I one to fix this issue first.
So please help me anyone who may know how.
Thanks.
