    I get “error: no device found”.

    The phone is connected for sure. Does this work on Windows 8, or only Windows 7??

      Hi Daniel I guess it doesn’t work with Window’s 8 just yet.

    Hello andy,
    great job you’re doing out here.

    i had to restore my zp100 to factory settings, after done, sim card issues appears. 1 sim card set as not working , the other works but can not make or receive phone calls. (although both work well in another phone).
    also it says invalid imei for both .

    I did not use zopo mobile tool before resetting to factory settings, nor backed up the imei . how can i get the phone to work normally as before with 2 sim cards. and a valid imei .

    thank you very much .

    Hi,

    Just got myself a ZP500.
    Does the package works on it as well or should I wait for something else?

    Thanks.

    • August 1, 2012

      I wouldn’t risk it
