I know in my Wm6 hermes, i can reset "Recent Cellular calls" with a onscreen button and "recent Internet calls" means doesn't matter if was inbound or outbound,

just is helpful to help you keep track of how many minutes you've used.

The LIFE timer is not resettable unless you hack it. whcih i agree would be deceptive and possibly illegal in some countries
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Olipro:
yeah well, this resets the life timer.

and I highly doubt it's illegal

No offense to anyone but I don't see why resetting call timers is a moral dilemma?!?!

Resetting call timers are easily done on Nokia and Motorola phones through the straight forward Phone settings menu...

Here are a couple of examples...

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KazuyaXR:
This problem is killing me -- "Not registered on network" -- I've tried everything

I have the SM-G920F model S6.

Custom rom initially was XtreStoLite 1.4a with the latest bootloader and modem installed via Odin.

It was working fine for a month or so... Then suddenly I received network connectivity issues (doesn't connect to 3G/4G and I can't make or receive any calls or texts). I thought the sim was damaged, I bought a new one with a new number, still not working.

I upgraded the rom from 1.4a to 1.5 via TWRP (doing a factory reset too).

Still nothing.

I've tried turning phone off and on, clearing the cache for the "phone" app too.

Also checked the IMEI number, it's fine, no mismatch and it's not banned/been blocked either. Tried the whole selecting a specific network/finding network automatically thing too, no dice T_T

Nothing is working.

Anyone help? It's crazy that my phone isn't working despite all these actions I'm taking!
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jah2110:
ttry with stock firmware, when you have no register on the network are 2 posibilite 1 you phone is reported or 2 is a modem problem and maybe you can fixed with the stock firm.

Hey Saafir,

I don't seem to have that anywhere on my phone. Checked in every single menu in the settings area......
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zdravkodubravec:
Maybe you really should try stock ... Or if you managed to root without triping Knox you could unroot and go completely stock and if it works test it for some time and if stock dose not work ... Then at least your phone is stock ( taking in account that Knox is not triped ) go to service and see if they could help you in any way ...

Also if you have warranty at all ...

http://www.asus.com/zentalk/forum.php?mod=redirect&goto=findpost&ptid=14836&pid=107979

asus said they cancelled this update due to unstable update...

1st i dont know what is unstable in this version[same as previous and new bug of call screen animation

2nd lol which update came without new bugs?

3rd they removed after they heard about unlocking bootloader..something fishy right :laugh:
[ZenFone 2 General] luisoman2000:
they will probably patch the unlock method with the next update, gonna unlock the bootloader before updating to next update.
[ZenFone 2 General] ansebovi:
ya same here..but what they will do to unlocked phones/??
[ZenFone 2 General] TheSSJ:
Maybe there just will be a check and it will abort if the BL is unlocked

But it should be easy to adapt these OTA updates to unlocked devices
[ZenFone 2 General] Harfainx:
Nothing they can do. As long as you don't flash an OTA or full stock build. They may have a way to patch it in their droidboot.
[ZenFone 2 General] jaysus145:
That was my first guess as well ;)
[ZenFone 2 General] ansebovi:
no i am asking about bootloader[can they lock it somehow if we flash next ota]

so how can we update from here after ??? need to modified by someone for flashing ???

ya my 1st thought too,, haha
[ZenFone 2 General] Harfainx:
That's how it works with all custom work. Once you're off stock, you're going to have to wait for someone to post a safe update/install.

Rushing in and taking an OTA is a very common way of breaking your build. Like what we see with running an OTA while rooted. Any number of problems can come up.

They could patch any number of things that would give you a very bad day.

With the support we have here though, we'll probably have flashable, safe OTA zips within a few hours of an OTA being captured/downloaded.
[ZenFone 2 General] ansebovi:
well i am from sony device..they release main update of android..and 1 bug fix,thats all...so we dont care..and no need to worry about relocking issues..

this is the first asus device...man they releasing update for every 10days..i thought we could apply just like that..but since they didnt gave unlocked bootloader tool ,i got these doubt..

and thanks for info..

so i must wait for zips which is modified for unlocked bootloader[if they trying to relock]
[ZenFone 2 General] Harfainx:
I honestly doubt they're going to find a way to relock it with an update, but who knows what voodoo they may come up with.

Either way, we'll grab the updates and get them ready to be flashed quickly. It's a simple process.
[ZenFone 2 General] saurabhrck:
I highly doubt he will do anything regarding unlocking/locking bootloader. because:

1. last year they released their official tool to unlock zenfone 4,5,6 bootloader after 3-4 months of release.

2. This year when they launched the zf2 in US they hold contest and developer events via xda. Now xda is a place where no one keeps their bootloader locked. so they knew exactly where they are releasing and advertising the product.

So I dont think they would even bother about this bootloader . Maybe it is an unstable build in terms of their quality test.
[ZenFone 2 General] OfficerJimLahey:
Dang, and my 551 (2/16GB) is still in transit. :(

Was browsing the forum and this thread - has 2.19 been captured and saved somewhere else, or was everyone just downloading off ASUS servers for this OTA (when forced)?

I don't know if I would want 2.19 yet. Maybe to keep on my PC until the right time. That is, if 2.20 comes out and the BL hole is plugged, and those who were on 2.19 (and took advantage of the bootloader unlocking) still got the update successfully - if either of those two outcomes are false, I wouldn't use it.

[ZenFone 2 General] rlaw:
Even if your phone gets here on a newer version (it won't), you could always downgrade everything and unlock from there. =)

Shakalaka has backups of everything going back to like version 2.12 or 2.13.
[ZenFone 2 General] adamberns:
Problem is they can't support any ROM that isn't official on the zenfone. They'll pass you off. Like most manufacturers.
[ZenFone 2 General] damian5000:
These are just official update links from Asus. Not backups. Asus can shut those down at any point. Not saying they will.

[ZenFone 2 General] ansebovi:
one more doubt..

i think 2.17 is stable build from asus without the android os drinking the battery

now i have unlocked the bootloader ,can i reflash the 2.17[asking since it doesnt have the things which enabled to unlock bootloader] ...or once unlocked,we can do anything like other brands phone?
[ZenFone 2 General] OfficerJimLahey:
I downloaded the appropriate OTA the other night, so if ASUS pulls the file, I still have it and can share it on Dropbox and/or Copy.

I get the phone today! :D So hopefully tonight I get the OTA up to 2.18 and then wait to see what upcoming 2.20 has to offer. If we can still unlock the BL with 2.20, I will let that OTA happen. Similarly if we find out that those who unlocked their bootloaders can't take the update (at that point I will cry a little, if there is no official way to unlock BL released with the update ;) ).

If both scenarios above are false, then I will apply my downloaded 2.19, unlock the bootloader, then accept 2.20.

Best one could do eh?

---------- Post added at 07:24 ---------- Previous post was at 07:19 ----------

I cannot imagine it would re-lock the bootloader. Should be able to downgrade, as long as you use the whole image and not just the OTA zip.

Now you got me wondering.... :p
[ZenFone 2 General] ansebovi:
no i didnt mean it will relock,..

but the unlocked needed some file right..it modifies something right? ...and it is not present in old things..so can old fw run on unlocked bootloader? [or would it get bootloop or damage bootloader]
[ZenFone 2 General] OfficerJimLahey:
IMO, as long as the firmware doesn't replace /factory/asuskey (which isn't even a system partition), you are all set. But, my assumption is that the unlocking process uses the /factory/asuskey as part of the process, but it won't care about the state of the file after it is unlocked. BTW, a newer update could have touched /factory/asuskey as well, without knowing it.

I could be wrong (it's happened before ;)), but bootloaders prepare the (major) partitions and create an environment for the kernel (be it system or recovery). They wouldn't care about arbitrary files (that's the kernel's job, and where one would get a bootloop) - if there was a bootloader problem, you would get a splash screen freeze instead.

Then again, I used RUU for an old HTC that was unlocked. In order for the return-to-stock to complete, I had to relock the bootloader - it was a requirement of fastboot (that didn't allow the update to continue until this was done).

Since there is still a little doubt in this, in your shoes I would wait to see what the next update offers, if it fixes the Android OS battery drain. (Did you narrow down the cause with BetterBatteryStats?)
[ZenFone 2 General] ansebovi:
hmmm,i dont know about what asus key did,or the files...thats y asked about bootloop,bootloader damage ,the possible damage which i can imagine off,..

guess waiting is the only option and hope asus do something about battery,no didnt check the with betterbatterystats
[ZenFone 2 General] Harfainx:
You can revert back after unlocking.

I've gone back to 2.18 numerous times to test custom builds of 2.19.
[ZenFone 2 General] ansebovi:
cool then i will stay in 2.17 :)
[ZenFone 2 General] sorg:
/factory/asuskey is just a trigger to unlock. After finish unlock, this file disappear, so it's not used anymore.

Can ASUS forcefully re-lock the bootloader? - Sure, can.

Can we go back to old version in order to unlock again? - not sure. Flashing bootloader (ifwi) through official procedure doesn't allow downgrade. Can try to force flash through dd, but it's very risky.

So, from my past experience, if you have unlocked bootloader, then don't use official updates because they may (and usually) update the bootloader and you may loose ability (it's up to manufacturer's policy) to boot custom recovery/boot.

With custom recovery, you can modify update and remove ifwi.zip, if.bin, droidboot.img, recovery.img and remove all script lines accessing these files. After this modification it's should be safe to apply update. May be also need to remove version check from script and signature files (they will be invalid after modification).
[ZenFone 2 General] andy905:
I've had a couple of phone shutdowns since installing the 2.19 ota. When I restart the phone some apps don't show up. Maybe that's what they meant by unstable
[ZenFone 2 General] Harfainx:
Any specific ones that you're seeing? I'm using 2.19.40.18 pretty heavily and am not seeing anything like that.
[ZenFone 2 General] glock24:
I've been using 2.19 since I got my phone and haven't encountered a single error or crash. I have a US version 2.3GHz 4GB ZE551ML. Other than average battery life, it's been a great experience.
[ZenFone 2 General] Bushcrafter:
+1. I have also incountered random shutdowns and missing apps after reboot on my 551. After one reboot the lock screen had been enabled and wallpaper had been changed back to the stock wallpaper. I proceeded to disable the lock screen, in the lock screen menu, but the button for no lock screen was missing. Rebooted the phone again and everything was back to normal.:confused: I have never had this issue at all with 2.18 at all. It all started with 2.19. This all happened a couple of days ago and after a fresh install,things seem to be working normal again. Time well tell I guess.:o
[ZenFone 2 General] daniyar.3264:
Am i thinking right: staying on 2.18 is the best way to get unlocked bootloader in case if asus will patch the hole?

So all im gonna do is wait when everything will be obvious with unlocking the BL.

In case if asus will patch a hole, I'll flash 2.19 and unlock BL
[ZenFone 2 General] jdaclutch:
Can i just simply revert back to 2.18 without unlocking the bootloader? The battery drain is real.
[ZenFone 2 General] fuzzybuffalo:
They might have cancelled the 2.19 OTA, but the link is still good to download it.
[ZenFone 2 General] kanagawaben:
Haven't encountered any major bugs or instabilities with 2.19 yet. It has quirks, but no more so than any other firmware ASUS have provided us with thus far, IMHO. I would swear it is more stable than 2.18.
[ZenFone 2 General] sorg:
who told you this?

Why people like to panic and spread the **** all over?

ASUS server knows which exactly phone downloaded the OTA by serial number, IMEI, etc. Depending on server setting, they may stop issue the same update once you've downloaded it.

It means, if you've downloaded OTA but decided to cancel installation, or flashed older build later, then you won't get this OTA again. It's up to ASUS server's decision.

If OTA link is alive then this OTA hasn't been canceled.
[ZenFone 2 General] fuzzybuffalo:
Who told me what? That the OTA was cancelled. Did you read the OP, click on the link.

Asus servers don't know anything if you don't download it with your phone.

Who told me the link was still good?

and yes ,asus cancelled as said by asus staff itself,check the link lol...so who should tell u,so that u can accept it??
[ZenFone 2 General] sorg:
Panic is whole this thread. What the reason to panic for me?

Zentalk just a little more official ASUS forum than XDA. There are no ASUS representatives there. At least not for technical questions. I've asked several questions there and read others - answers are not relative to real world. What so-called ASUS ppl there say, are just their private opinions, not ASUS'. They just get some info from ASUS like release notes, etc. One way. And there is no 2 ways communication with ASUS reps there.
[ZenFone 2 General] ansebovi:
panic is whole thread?? lol... only u r panicking.. we are just talking about this and future updates ..learn what is panicking...

and asus removed the links from the their site..but in the server,they didnt remove the data or link..all non rooted users of India[since i am in fb group of india ,i know this,cant confirm on other countries] stuck in 2.18 ...they didnt receive any updates till now....they didnt recieve ota update even for once and didnt even modified anything in system..so dont say asus thought they downloaded that ota and cancelled 2nd time notifications...

asked in myasus chat..they said 2.18 is the latest

and lol moderators cant say whatever they think that too in system update cancellation....and that site is maintained by official asus[they must answer correctly to users,so they can talk to asus staff] ..not like xda hahaha...

see my attachment also..

now u will say...i know better than asus moderators,asus online chat representative ,i run asus server,development team right????
[ZenFone 2 General] Harfainx:
The official *release* was cancelled, but 2.19 is still hosted on their servers for anyone to download.

So clearly they didn't think that it was too bad. If it was truly bad they would have pulled the links down, not just the posted information.

Yes. It has to be unrooted and the file needs to be named MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip
[ZenFone 2 General] sorg:
With full ROM (~1GB) you don't need un-root. One of the first command in full ROM script is format /system.

Just make sure your recovery is official 2.18 version. Everything else doesn't matter in case of full ROM.
