[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Harfainx:
I'll see if I can get that fixed. I know there's a fix somewhere, just need to look around and find it. Should be able to write to SDcard, but I know sometimes you need to open the built-in file manager and select the SD card for write permissions. I'll work on getting it built-in.

Flashing this will overwrite any custom kernel. There's no reason to flash a kernel before doing a clean flash.

From CM12 back to SuperZen:

After running CM12

Download current SuperZen

Reboot recovery

Wipe - Advanced wipe - System, Data, cache, dalvik

*DO NOT wipe Internal Storage or Micro SDcard (unless you want to delete your own data)

Intall SuperZen

Optional: Flash your custom kernel and/or add-on zips if you want to use any

Reboot System

Any one else have issues with the BT toggle not working (switches on, then just switches off)?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Harfainx:
ahh, I see what you did. You added media_rw to write external. I'll throw that line in on my phone and test it out. Thanks mate. :good:

Edit: Fantastic, that worked.

So this will be added into the next release. It's a one-line fix that gave the permission needed.

The next revision should be soon.

If you want to do this manually and know what you're doing, you can manually add the line into the /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml file.

<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_r" />
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
[b]<group gid="media_rw" />[/b]
</permission>

Add the bold line into that section. DO NOT modify anything else.

I rebooted to recovery and cleared my cache after, but you probably don't need to.

I'm not responsible for your breaking anything if you do this manually. Your phone, your responsibility.

Be sure to thank [MENTION=1060541]helroz[/MENTION] for pointing that out. :highfive:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] helroz:
Another idea, i try this:

I have installed all apk directly in system/app and system/priv-app without any subfolder. (And see 3 apk not deodexed in app folder due to subfolder, same problem in superzen)

It's more cleaner ^^

has anyone tested nfc and google wallet with this? i tried twice at 2 different walgreens and no success.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Ashtrix:
Thankyou [MENTION=2491106]Harfainx[/MENTION] for the clean ZenUI based Custom ROM, just flashed Amazing work there mate :good:;) !!

Here's my first UX with some mods..

Wanted to try the Resolution and DPI modifications from Terminal Emulator. ( Sidenote - Resolution change doesn't effect much as the 720P rendering isn't smooth, better is 1080p only - maybe the UI doesn't bode well as all the icons go haywire & jagged edges in apps, doesn't effect photos though they seem to adjust to resolution change but not the UI framework, CM doesn't have it (?) ) The stock DPI is not so cool, so after rooting / unlocking whenver the DPI scaling is changed (365 is my sweet spot on this device, looks best not a perfect on the fly DPI friendly UI like SLIM ROMs as icon labels gets effected on homescreen slipping out regardless of the font size, again this doesn't happen if using softkeys & margins gets affected lesser than this DPI in someapps / notifications ). The Power Saver app FC's, this happens on the SuperZen too as it's based on it. All other Apps work, except that power saver, I just don't get why It fails with DPI scaling :confused:

Zenphone 2 feels like a Bugatti against my 3 yr old Gnex..xD

EDIT: the power saver FC gets fixed with an Xposed mod
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] saenz4931:
How do I disable headphone notification?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] yvessparks:
Hi guys. This looks very promising. Great work :) I will install this weekend when o get back home.

One quick question: is that annoying blue batter lockscreen removed that shows when you are charging your phone? It completely blocks all notifications.

Looking forward to flashing this bad boy!
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] coastalmikey:
NFC and Wallet works fine. Used it @ Petco, Walgreens multiple time on SuperZen in Project T kernel.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Harfainx:
Walgreens is always picky. I don't think I've ever gotten any Google Wallet payment to work at one of their stores.

Thought I already removed that. Sorry, it'll be gone in R15 and forward. If you want to remove it manually, delete /system/app/Transformer/Transformer.apk and then reboot.

It's mostly left-over code from the Asus Pad and PadFone devices. They didn't scrub that old code at all, so it's a mostly useless apk anyway.

I have no idea what that is.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Ashtrix:
Thee power saver FC with DPI change gets fixed with an Xposed mod

And anyone know why the ROM takes up a whole 6.47GB of the nand, making only 25GB of user space, I think the stock & stock based roms are effected, CM shouldn't have that issue...:confused:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Harfainx:
Edit: R15 is on SVN & Google now.

Fixed SDcard write issue (R14) - Thanks [MENTION=1060541]helroz[/MENTION]

Removed Headphone Notification and icon (thought I removed that before, but it somehow found its way back)

Added some sexy new wallpapers thanks to [MENTION=1373751]thoughtlesskyle[/MENTION]
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] vkez:
For the update need clean flash or dirty flash is enough?

Thank you for your awesome work on zenfone2

Really great.:)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Harfainx:
Dirty flash is fine for update. It'll take care of cache and such.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Ashtrix:
Hello, does Flashify / Rashr work ?

I can't get em to work...flashify stops, on before pointing the file and rashr says no busybox even after installing from busybox on rails...
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Harfainx:
No idea, I flash in TWRP. Never used those other things.

If Flashify stops before even pointing to the file, then that sounds like an issue with Flashify. I have never used it, so I don't know what's going on with that.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] NoobNeutralizer:
Harfainx...

I installed the Modded Google Play Store and didn't open it up and stop auto-updates until it had updated Splendid and Weather...

I then uninstalled the updates through Google Play, rebooted into recovery, ran your data removal script and rebooted the phone...

Will that remove them from the app/data folder?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] pinuno:
Is it okay if I'll flash SuperZen R15 2.19.40.22 if i'm using current build number "ASUS_Z00A-2.19.40.20"? Thanks and regards.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Lorka.Tinou:
I think you are talking about the "screen saving" from Clean Master, it's gone obviously.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] menbaosusu:
I'm still using R13, I noticed that if I go to a gif heavy webpage, the ZenFone 2 heats up to 41C. I dunno if it is Rom related or the Intel CPU related.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] yvessparks:
Aaaahhh! Thanks! I didn't know it was part of clean master. Awesome, flashing now! :)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] hshaikh:
Harfainx,

I just discovered that there is a settings option to remove the do not disturb notification. If you go to settings > do not disturb. There is a switch at the bottom to turn off the notification.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] yvessparks:
Guys, really awesome! I flashed an all is working fine. All the little lag issues i had on the phone with full stock, gone. Annoying apps, gone. Thank you guys for all your hard work!
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] cieffe54:
Nothing for Remove "External Storage Mounted" on every reboot?? It is really annoying ::mad:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] yvessparks:
I don't know how often you reboot your phone, but for me its OK. Specially with all the benefits this rom gives over stock :)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] jba.33a:
Thankx to whole team doing a great job.

ASUS does update it's apps, including launcher etc, often. Updating makes a bit of mess, making apk in syste/app or system/priv-app, and update is stored in data folder....

Question - is there a possibiltyfor team to identify all that apps, and put them in data folder, so they do not bload sysem folder, and while they are udated previous version is erased, so entire system remains clean?

I tried to do that, but got confused in the middle of the process unfortunatelly...
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ImjuzCY:
IMO, some apps are better to stay in system. For example, the launcher, if one accidentally uninstalled it from the data partition, at least there is still one in system which won't be so easily uninstalled.

And just being curious, you won't need much free space in system partition as you won't have to use it most of the time, so why bothered by having less free space in system partition? On the other hand, data partition is more useful than system to store media files etc so why not save some space in data partition by converting updated apks to system app and let data partition be freed?

Just my own opinion, so don't be offended
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] fuzzybuffalo:
+1

It's in his to do list.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] jba.33a:
Not offended at all - this is forum for us to present our ideas and experiences, so we can find best solutions. I see the point for launcher. Still, by having apps both in system partition and data partition (after apps updates), free space is less on both - system and data partition, since apps are on both places. And I'm always keen to have tidy system.

Update:

I enclosed the content of app and priv-app folders with minimal content of apps, working ones. Nevertheless, some apps that will be updated must stay in priv-app (AsusContacts, AsusInCallUI, AsusSplendid, FlipCover2)...

Also, here is the list of apps I removed - they remained only in /data... so far, it works.

any idea where to download asus stock kernel? help please...
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Did you flash another kernel or something?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] yvessparks:
You know zen is based on the stock asus ROM (thus including original Asus kernel) but without all the bloatware and with other minor adjustments, cleanups etc?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] mbolinao:
dumb question here: after installing superzen, and say i want to restore my nandroid backup (system, boot, data), do i need to wipe system, dalvik, cache, etc? or do i just proceed straight to restore and it will automatically delete and clean whatever's there?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Just restore, it will wipe the partitions as needed. You can choose to wipe cache if you want to, I think it does that on restore too though
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] mbolinao:
thanks! did it. backup is back. though i noticed my splash screen is back to black (it was white when i unlocked the bootloader).

does it mean my bootloader is locked again? or it's just using the black splash screen from superzen? How can i check if my bootloader is unlocked or not?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
SuperZen flashes the black splash on boot, there is currently no way to relock the bootloader so short answer is don't worry about it
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] mbolinao:
cool! thanks man!
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] kriegschluesser:
Yes i did
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
reflash the rom zip
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] kriegschluesser:
Yeah i think so. But i wanna try to flash some custom kernel. It will need so much time to re-flash this rom again. Thats why im askin if anyone have this rom kernel only...just the kernel not the whole rom.. please help?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
By so much time you mean like the time for it to boot? You don't have to wipe or reset anything back up just flash the zip without wiping data and you'll be fine. If you thought ahead and made a back up before flashing the rom or kernel you can choose to restore just boot if needed.

Hi Guys,

Just got my zf2 4GB/64GBP for a few days. Noticed something absolutely weird with my battery.

For e.g: it was at plugged in and charging and I checked it was 77% the next min it jumped to 100%. Screenshot attached showing the sudden jump of battery level.

And also onscreen the battery is just dropping at a ridiculous rate! Any suggestions on checking battery stats or if maybe I got one with a lemon battery.
