Like many excellent Android devices out there, the GooApple 3G is a fantastic phone, and great looking iPhone 4 knock-off, yet it does have a few bugs that need working out!
Follow these simple steps to update your GooApple 3G to the latest Android ROM, which includes bug fixes and has all the old Chinese only applications completely removed!
Strangely, although the new ROM is in English the updating process is still in Chinese, luckily it a simple process:
Gizchina News of the week
- First thing you will want to do is download the latest English only GooApple ROM, which you can do here.

I updated, but as Billy, the phone stucks at the Gooapple screen and I can’t change anything anymore. What to do?
Ok doke let me get on it and find out.
it happened after the Rom update by the way.
I was told you should try the new ROM which you can find here: http://download.android-sale.com/downloads/ let me know how it works
ok, interesting note: if you go deep into the headphone hole with a small pin, you hit the reset button and everything is fixed again. 🙂

I pushed the hole that is at par with the precione headphones and nothing happens because we do this if the program does not work 🙁
What about removing the battery what does that do?

I am not having any luck with the update. I have booted the phone, connected it, gone into ApUpdate (unzipped) and started the process. A message comes up about granting access so I click yes, same message comes up and click yes again. Then a cmd screen comes up with the only option being “n” and then a message Could not find C:……ApUpdatetemp*.txt
Any help is appreciated. Thx!

The page you are refering to says it is for the V5 phone and not 3G. Will that update work on the 3G?
Thanks!
I have updated the new instructions to include the ROM for the 3G phone too.
