Some weeks ago our sister site GizChina.it launched a poll to decide which version of the new GizRom should be launched for the Zopo ZP980, ZP990, C2 and C3 first. The winner was MIUI V5 and as promised here it is ready to download and install!
The poll, offered the choice of either MIUI V5, a Samsung TouchWiz style ROM or Sony Xperia style ROM for popular Zopo Android phones. The winner was MIUI V5 with a landslide win of 58.6% of all the votes! Since the poll ended, talented Android ROM modder Marsapa has been working hard to bring you the ROM of your choice and here it is ready to download!
The first Rom was made for Zopo ZP990 , Zp980 , C2 and C3 devices. However, MIUI V5 GizRom will be only the first of a long series of ROM made under the GizRom name , a project that will be extended to other phone brands and devices as time goes by.
Here are some screenshots of MIUI V5 ROM installed on Zopo ZP990 C7 Captain S.
The Rom is multi-language but doesn’t yet have a complete translate for each language, however it is very straight forward and easy to use!
Here is the modder Marsapa opinion about ROM:
MIUI V5 porting ROM for Zopo ZP990/980/C2 and C3 is based on Android 4.2.2 version 5 ( 3.9.6 ) , Multi-language ( nearly 100% ) .Google Apps can be flashed via recovery.
Once installed during the initial setup, you can select MIUI or AOPS Keyboard.
The 3G works only on SIM no.1.
The ROM supports the use of a flip cover which will activate the lockscreen or unlock the phone as it is opened and closed.
No bugs found to date.

So, what exactly are the advantages of GizRom?
Great great! Please can you make it for the Jiayu G4? Basic and Advanced? Thanks!
YES I WANT PORTUGUESE FOR G4
Congratz Andi! You’ve come a long way 😀
Nice move 😉
I’m curious about your next target! could it be:
* an ‘old’ phone like iOcean X7 Elite?
* a ‘newer’ phone like UMI Cross? 😀
Please, let us know your ‘roadmap’!!
Can you please tell whether this will work on CUBOT GT99 cause its also a MTK Quad Core handset…

Dear andi why we can not use this to other mtk 6589 phones?
Drivers.
every hardware has its drivers, the only common hardware is the procesor, but camera, screen, motherboard, and more has diferent drivers that diferents brand don’t have.
i have problem i have got C2 and after install this rom i dont see nothing i mean screnn is shining black and this is it.. nothing more for one second a saw a wizard of miui and this is all i saw..
Install Marsapa V15, and over it, the miui.
After installing v15, do the wipes, but don’t format system.
I am also having this problem. How do I install Marsapa V15, when the screen is not working?
yeah how do we do this?
how do you do this without being able to see the sceen?

Very greatfully and thankfully for this ROM. I hope it’s more stable than the original one from ZOPO ZP980. I never really had issues with it but it lacked grunt so I decided to get the GREAT OPPO FIND 5. I wanted to try a Chinese phone and I choose the ZOPO ZP980.
My friend has used it and told me that it was quite unstable when he used it (but better than the Jiayu G4 (GPS is shit)). I decided to start using it and MOD it as a test phone (before I start fine tuning my OPPO also).
So I hope it’s lighter/more stable than the original ZOPO rom, having said that. Is there and original ZOPO Rom in case I want to reverse it (f.e. Sell the phone). Already told my friend to bring it back so Thursday or Friday will be the big moment. TBC

I just wish they could sort out the GPS problem, then you would have a phone were all the basic features work.
Does not work on C2 Plat 16GB, the 3 gizchina logos come on screen and then you can hear boot up sound but screen is Blank any ideas? Followed instructions as above, have tried many different roms before and never had any problems.
Eroot will not work on this rom, if you are going to install this rom and your screen goes blank do this :Install Marsapa V15, and over it, the miui.
After installing v15, do the wipes, but don’t format system. but do not boot into V15. go straight back to recovery and flash MIUI V5

Ok, it’s now installed on my 990 and everything looks good but I wondered: It looks like it’s not possible to update it with the weekly builds, am I right?
Hi, could somebody try antutu benchmark test with this ROM?
I’m getting 15458 on mine
This ROM seems to be working great for me but there is one problem ; it is incompatible with the Xposed Framework. If you are to install the Xposed Framework the phone will not boot until you enter recovery and flashing the Xposed Disabler file. Please fix this, I like this ROM very much and this is the only missing feature
use wsm tools in place of exposed. It will work

installed the ROM on the zopo 990 everything works fine except for the 1.5 gig limit for programs. Thanks for all the work, great phone love the Zopo 990
Which 1.5 GB limit?
My 990 has a 7 GB space for programs with this ROM.
Have a look here if you want to expand the User Program partitions to 7 GB:

Don’t install this rom. Because, The system crashes several times after one week. Also, the launcher uses about 200~300mb from ram. It lags when multiple apps running. The battery drains quickly than stock. The only advantage is you may get some fancy icons

Same like another user (@daneyboy), I installed it, but the screen goes blank. Some very rare times, after punching the screen and the buttons repeteadly, the screen shows that it’s actually running, but after just interacting with it, it goes blank again. This is frustrating. I can’t get into recovery to flash it with another ROM. I feel like a blind man trying to operate my all touchscreen phone. Eroot also doesnt work (because I can’t get to the screen to enable Debug). Please help. Thank you before
I’ll get on to Mario at GizChina.it (they are the ones developing this ROM) and see what the issue is.

I have installed this ROM and its very nice. I like it very much, but I am facing one problem. When I am playing the real racing 3 game the UI is lagging and the game is very slow. This game used to play smoothly in the original stock rom. It would be great if you could correct this issue.

Tried to install this on my C2 platinum, but now my phone won’t boot anymore.
The only thing I see when I power up the phone is the three gizchina logos.

After flashing my phone I also got a black screen after booting, but the solution of “vitor” below solves my problem (ROM 4.2.1 with some special usability). It is a little bit hard to find those tools.

Now I have reverted back to Zopo stock rom. Everytime I boot up, I get Gizchina flash page. Is there a way to remove this? Thanks for any advice!

Why not the Official Nexus 5 ROM, the Official Kit Kat Rom? 🙂 Or the latest version of Cyanogen? Thanks.

Why not just leave it with stock ROM? What are the advantages of putting a custom ROM on? Would like to understand as I am toying with the idea of installing?
