Update : Instagram issue solved with Z7 Max. Solution : for those on v1.38 or lower, please update to v1.41 to fix the camera blur / focus issue. For those getting black square boxes when uploading their pix to IG, please go to IG settings > Camera > Disable High Quality Image Processing feature.

Credit goes to Piesko from Xiaomi forums for this solution.

You can get the ROM from Needrom.com if you are having trouble getting it from nubia.cn.

This is becoz this phone is meant for China market and the ROM developers are Chinese, so the English in the ROM becomes Chinglish. Quite common for Chinese smartphones. If you don't like it, there is a tutorial on the net on how to root and install CM11. User AndroidFreak CEO already did that.

Another major reason ZTE prefer old school 2.5GB system storage/partition is to ensure when updating from stock ROM to another newer stock ROM, the update process will not disturb your media/3rd party apps/data/etc. During OTA update, it will only "disturb" the 2.5GB partition. Hence, your existing/installed apps will not be reset/removed.

If everything is unified, then, after OTA, all your media/3rd pay apps/data/etc will be removed.

Overall, there are pro and cons for 2.5GB partition and unified 8/16/32GB system partition...

I personally prefer the 2.5GB partition so that if anything happened to the 2.5GB system core files, it can be easily recovered/revived without worrying the database for gaming and apps database are lost. We still need to install back these apps but the database is still intact in the internal storage.

Example, you almost complete Asphalt 8 game. Only a few more tracks to go. Suddenly, your Android system files corrupted. Hence, you are required to hard reset/flash back the stock ROM. After hard reset, you realised the Asphalt 8 is totally gone. All your hard work, in-app purchased and the joy to finish the game totally gone and have to start all over again. If there is 2.5GB system storage, you don't lost your record/database. Just re-install back Asphalt 8 and the database/history will be recovered automatically.

But, as of today, lots of apps and games offer cloud storage backup. Meaning, once you have finished one level/stage, it will be automatically backed up to the cloud using your account in the app/games. Therefore, the need for 2.5GB is totally redundant. Unified storage is more preferable...

I have owned LeMoto P780 since last year. It's 8GB variant. Out of the box, it has the 2.5GB system storage. This is during Jelly Bean. But now, LeMoto has released latest ROM that unified 8GB as system storage. But, before OTA update, there is a warning message asking you to do proper backup before OTA. So that, after OTA, you just reinstall back all the apps and restore the back-ups manually ONE-BY-ONE....

So, it's personal choice in the end...

I'm trying to understand your situations....

Whatever they are, ensure:
1) You've already upgraded your micro-SIMs to 4G LTE chip. Goto nearest counter service to change/upgrade the SIMs. It's RM10 per SIM.

2) After slot in the SIM(s), set the Access Point (AP) Names properly. Again, refer to the counter on the AP name for the 4G LTE SIMs. Eg. Celcom = "celcom4g".

3) In the Card One settings, ensure the "Network operators" mode is set to "Choose Automatically".

4) In the Card One settings, ensure the "Preferred network type" mode is set to "Others".

5) Reboot z7 Max.

I believe you are still in stock ROM v1.38, right?

Below is my z7 Max SIMs setup:

Ok noted. But with that being said i will put on hold my intention to flash cm11 until they resolved everything. What is the point of having a piece of hardware on your phone that the software cant take advantage of.

When ZTE claims they made a 1 day battery for this phone, they are not kidding yo! At 22% after intense usage of browsing, playing games, LTE on all the time with dual sim active and bluetooth on as well!

U cannot use the software update from within the OS in v1.38, i just doesn't work. I have tried it too and it failed. You need to root it first, instal CWM recovery and then download v1.41 (full update, 724MB file) from needrom.com and gapps.zip and flash away from recovery. I think a lot of your sim issues will be resolved as soon as u update to v1.41.
