    Videocon CC has called me today & confirmed me that the 2.1 update is available for Videocon Zeus V7500.
    I have not yet gone to their service centre. Will update after getting the feel of that.
    Hope they will update to version 2.2
    Or atleast the option for saving the application in memory cards.

    Got the 2.1 update for v7500 from CC.
    It is supporting live wallpapers.
    The browser is not now opening all pages.
    Even their own page is not opening, it is showing some errors.
    No option for installing the application in SD card.
    Hope videocon will do this one option.
    Do any one know of rooting this phone?

    got my phone updated to 2.1.
    cons :- the processer is limited to work till 443Mhz to conserve battery.
    so i rotted the phone by using Rom Manager it also install superuser and updated to the custom rom called boston Vanilla & Sugar
    which is better than the 2.1 update .

    Now i have update to 2.2 Froyo working fine and faster than 2.1 will try 2.3 after it gets released from any modders..
    will keep you posted .

    it’s the worst phone possibly one could buy. After paying 11k, immediately after 1st call I got disappointed, call quality it very very bad. Leave beside the juice (8GB card, car charger etc) what’s the top most thing a phone should be able provide ? …. a good voice clarity ! .. but alas videocon has failed miserably. And to top it up .. it frequently restarts as well .. it sucks.
    I regret my decision to buy indian company phone .. should have relied on korean made ..

    who ever is planing to buy …. pl pl pl dont buy this junk product. If you’re still hard on to buy it … let me know .. you can buy it from me for anywhere with 3 digit quote !

        Nandan you can update it from any of the videocon service centres as given in their manual.
        i think there are 3 service centres given in the manual for bangalore. you can choose the nearest one to your location. While going take a backup of your contacts in sd card.
        Also take the original bill along with the phone.
        Without the bill they will not update your phone & it may take some half an hour for them to complete the update.

    I just got this handset. I paid 9,994 Rupees. Got it from Planet M. The call quality is not upto the mark. However, the other features are above par, 9,994 rs is worth. But still I think I should have taken LG Optimus. Bygones are bygones. Now, can anyone please let me know can I update it from 1.6 to 2.2? If Yes, please provide me the link. If no, why?

    Hello after rooting the phone, is it possible to go back to the previous versoin of 2.1 that the service center guys updated to get the warrant back. If no then there will be a big problem with the warranty part. Guys think twice before rooting your phone unless and until U get the official 2.1 update as a backup.

    I have rooted my phone using z4mod.
    Now I am enjoying Android 2.2 with features like App2sd + USB tethering + 600MHZ full speed
    I have installed Firetrap twonights & its really good.
    tried cyanogen also but it is battery consuming & giving problems with sd car also.
    So root your phone & go for Firetrap twonights & enjoy Android 2.2

      Just download z4mod in to your sd card\
      Install & do permanent root
      when rooted you will get a superuser icon
      After that download Firetrap twonights + SUT tool.
      Put your phone in download mode(Power off then press – Power+Vol Up+Red buttons)& connect to PC
      Once in download mode open SUT software.
      when the software detects the phone select the Firetrap software .nbo file & then select erase all data.(Note you have to take a backup of your phone contacts to sd card before starting this)
      when it finishes the steps your phone will boot & you will get Android 2.2
      First time booting may take some time so leave it to boot & have a fuller battery wile attempting these things.
      Also note to install all these you should have Android 2.1(do it from the service centre)

    I have successfully updated from stock 1.6 to 2.1 then to a custom version named jellybean all went well. I didn’t go to service center at all.

    Tools used SUTLR
    Phone in download mode (red + vol up + power)
    Spice site 2. 1 (down load and install then go to program folder and copy out fox -****. Nb0)

    You will lose warranty but it works… and we can put back those videocon splash screen and boot animation

      Can you give a little detailed way how to upgrade from 1.6 to 2.1

      Like after Starting the sutlr what should i do
      can u give the download link of rom (.Nb0) file u downloaded
      i have already downloaded MI-300-Eclair-Software-Updater-Tool.zip from their website is it the correct one.

      Download the desired ROM with .nb0 extension and unzip it to your hard disk (not on your phone’s SD card)
      Download this application, SUTLR v1.7.0, unzip and install on your computer
      Connect your phone to the computer via USB
      Power off you phone and restart in DOWNLOAD MODE (for Commtiva Z71 variants – long press red button + volume up + power)
      Start the SUTLR application you installed in step 2
      Click next, locate your .nb0 file
      In the drop down below, select Erase user data and click next
      That’s it, the software will flash the .nb0 on to your phone

      i have found this procedure is it same as u did for your phone

        sorry for the late reply .. you should have mailed me directly ..

        There is a .nb0 file inside the spice update tool. i mean after downloading and installing the setup of spice update utility search in your C drive for a file named F0X-3260-0-0002-A01.nb0

        then copy or cut it to some other location. keep it.

        close the spice update tool

        install and open SUTLR tool
        point the SUTLR to this F0X-3260-0-0002-A01.nb0 file (spices 2.1 eclair version)
        then optionally select ERASE USER DATA too on the SUTLR
        click next next …. and do the up date .it will take around 5 to 20 mins depending upon your pc speed.

        pls feel free to chat or mail me +91 903 727 9129

          Can u share your F0X-3260-0-0002-A01.nb0 file
          u can share it on the website http://ge.tt/ and after sharing can post your link here so that we can download
          or u can give the spice update tool link from where u downloaded it.
          Please it will be very helpful

          Thanks in advance 🙂

          I think F0X-3260-0-0002-A01.nb0 is for upgrading from 2.1 to 2.2.
          Because from official update zip of spice i found F0X-219M-0-5015-A01.nb0 which is for upgrading to 2.1 from 1.6
          So i think i have to upgrade first from 1.6 to 2.1 by F0X-219M-0-5015-A01.nb0 .
          And after that 2.1 to 2.2 from F0X-219M-0-5015-A01.nb0.
          using the same procedure.
          Am i right ?

      I have F0X-219M-0-5015-A01.nb0 is it the correct one?
      And what i have to do after the above process will it be running properly or i have to do some more work on it.
      Like in some other tutorials they talk about clockwork recovery and other things so i am little confused.

      While the ROM is installed it is automatically done.
      So no need to do it once again.
      Go to manage applications & select application & move to SD card.
      Note some applications will not have this feature.
      Try Jellybean which is more smoother than two nights.

      I have gone to jellybean through 2.1
      So for safety go to Android 2.1(Spice nbo file using SUT tool) & then try Jellybean using SUT.
      Backup datas & contacts before doing for safety.

    hi rajesh krishnan

    your boot animation file is located in /system/media/bootanimation.zip

    if you already have a backed up videocon bootanimation.zip put it there using either root explorer in jelly bean or use adb push /filename /system/media/bootanimation.zip command from your pc

    there is still a better way get QtAdb.exe its a pc suite for android phones google it to get it. install and u can access all location of your phone from your pc . keep in touch or read my blog . you all can join and post also. help each other .

    hi mahesh

    i found the call quality is really good. but what i dont like is the camera .. its good in a way but there is no auto focus. so no macro or different photo modes. GPS is best i get an accuracy of 6mts indoor.
    and the quadrant benchmark says 765 (when running jellybean) that is just below the samsung galaxy s.

      hi rajesh

      most probably it wont work on zues… cos the hardware of both fones are different. try 2.2 jelly bean or check boston-mania sites he has a lot of roms which are compactible for zues .. they have official 2.2 Foxconn thats what our phone is.. Foxconn /commtiva z71 /z51 .. there is work going on to put gingerbread 2.3.3 is the latest … wait for the final release.

    Install Cyanogen at your risk.
    Phantom Sky Revolution is the best as of now.
    Even after installing more than 80 apps/games I have the full phone memory near to 120MB free.
