I ran antutu few times and I got maximum 13500 and minimum 12900 (zopo zp810) . 2d I got maximum 640 and 3d got max 3500. So I think that's not actually right. You need new firmware.

It's likely not a redesigned chip. Just set at a higher clock rate. Similar to how Intel will sell the same exact chip clocked higher if it's stable at that rate. It could also be from the beginning that they were designed to run at 1.5.

Thanks for helping out and being part of the forum Hitman.

Just follow the tutorial step by step. The correct files are in with the ROM and the tutorial. Use stock 4.2.1 or newest Dzyhn. If you're rooted, backup with Titanium backup first so you'll be able to easily restore all your apps after you put the new firmware.

DO IT. DO IT NOW Vampire

Titanium has a strange user interface. Select which apps you want backed up, or swipe up on the home screen and 'select all'.

The instructions regarding flashing the actual ROM are right in the thread. I suggest the Dzyhn Glass Mod, or Zopo 4.2.1 stock.

thanks! you layed it out nicely for me! .. 4.2.1 is it that much better than 4.1.2?? and when im doing it, how long does it take roughly? couple mins, or an hour??
oh and in your video () theres 3 touch buttons at the bottom of the screen? will that be there if i upgrade?

Just a couple minutes. No, those soft buttons won't be there. That was just the ROM I was on at the time.

I wouldn't say 4.2.1 is much better. My favorite feature is notification area. Two-fingers pulls down the quick toggles. One finger pulls down the notifications. You can also 'pull' your gmail topics within notifications to see who your emails are from and what the subject is without leaving notifications.

Also there's Miracast support if you happen to have a modern TV.

The dual-sims are color coded and you can hot-swap the WCDMA between them.

Those are the main differences that I've liked and could be useful.
