Nope, bootloader doesn't need to be relocked (we can't now anyway) BUT you need stock recovery and unrooted device.

I have 2 and one remains stock while the 2nd runs Superzen. On the stock with root I re0flash the pre-rooted rom and then let it OTA, this seems to work with no problems. On Superzen, which has a kernel modified, you will end up with bootloops and a hell of a time trying to fix... Don't flash the OTA update, go to settings>about and change the option to don't download automatically and the pesky notification will go away.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] jschurawlow:
Thanks for clarifying. I wasn't certain about the bootloader needing to be locked again or not. At least we don't have to relock it every time flashing OTA which is good to know.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] FraRu:
Very very good ROM, but I don't like the new bootanimation I preffer the old one.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] marcof93:
If you go in ZenFone 2 Themes and Apps there is a thread with bootanimations, included the old one.

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ermaglia:
hello installed the ROM everything perfect, I wanted to know two things ... if I uninstall the app Asus, then when you do get out a new ROM problem!? I have to reinstall? I do not speak of OTA but a new version of the ROM. When you restart the phone so I start updating applications as if I changed firmware what I can do, sorry for my english

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] marcof93:
You can delete what you want, when you install the new version of the rom, the installation process will rewrite the entire system, so after you update your rom, you will have back the apps you deleted from system..no bootloop, no problem :good:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] bleedingblue:
Negative. I'm a big fan of the boot animation and have gotten several compliments from others.

Hope SuperZen will get updated soon :)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Wilkij:
Judging from the change log, I don't think there's much to be gained with this update. Unless, there are some fixes not mentioned in the log. This one might be skipped without noticeable difference.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] BXWolf92:
That reminds me

I've been poking through the forums for a bit and couldn't find a post for unlocking the bootloader, rooting and setting up recovery. could you pm me links?

Afterwards I'm super excited to see how well this performs. How has battery life been going for everyone so far with this rom vs what it was with stock? :confused:

Edit: Also, is anyone having a heating problem with their device? Mine likes to heat up with some multi-tasking.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] fredfung20:
This Rom is good, but something I want to ask. Some of the app can't update and download from the google play store, they just keep saying downloading for a long time, what is the problem of it ? How to solve it ? I am sure that there is no network connection problem. Thanks
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] marcof93:
I don't have any problems with downloads from play store, maybe you have to wipe.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] joep2k:
Don't have issues with updating apps either.

Love your work with the ROM. I find this ROM to be smoother than stock!

Hi guys,

Would anyone know if the fm radio add on will work on the barbone rom? It's also based on asus rom. Thanks in advance.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ImjuzCY:
It will work. There is a fm zip over there in the prism barebone thread fyi
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] jschurawlow:
As it is the FM Radio from the stock ROM I can only presume it should work on any stock based ROM. It is the kind of thing I'd backup first before doing unless you don't care if you need to flash the barebone rom again if it doesn't behave.

Edit: ImjuzCY you beat me to to it lol

I will actually get to this update at some point.

Been really busy at work, and then I'm off camping over the long weekend. Hopefully I'll find some time.

Luckily it isn't a big update, so nobody is really missing out on anything without it.

I hope to have some time to work on some of the things that need some love on the ROM, but life is killing me lately.

:eek:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
If you delete the boot animation zip in the media folder of the rom it'll force the stock android boot animation. It might not be pretty but it'll work
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Hiwa@:
Did you tired? 551 LCD on 550 ?

Already mount all again, please let me know if you are sure.

I am sure all works except LCD . I flashed stock with abd and fastboot while screen was black, so mobile was booting but only screen was black.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
I don't own a 550, but if everything is set correctly for the dpi it'll work,however this is only for the boot animation. If the rest isn't booting or doing anything this won't fix it

Run the root kit you used to root it in the first place or reflash your rom. If you reflash the rom like an update then it should put SU back.

Hope that helps

Haven't heard or seen anything about it. I don't think it should be coming from the rom. I haven't changed any connection information, or anything that should impact carrier communication.

How is the battery life on this? Is there an improvement after being debloated? Also is this rom affected by the 5.0 memory leak?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] :
Twrp taking up to 2.54gb is that for real?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] BXWolf92:
So far the battery life is noticeably better to me before I started adding on a lot of apps. I did notice an issue with opening apps from Notifications and getting push notifications, but that was the built in task manager getting aggressive.

As far as the memory goes, I haven't used 5.0 prior to this, so I'm unaware of the memory leak, though I do see more memory consumption than I expected. 2 full gigs in constant use to be exact. But I'm not sure if that's because of the memory leak or just some apps I have :3
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] jba.33a:
@kiettv12

Most probably - you did backup of your sistem, that is why it shows this large storage use. If you did the backup, it''s normal.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Harfainx:
I imagine that's your TWRP folder, which is probably a backup you did.

================================

Also, to note to everyone... Sorry I didn't get the ROM updated yesterday.

I got really busy at work, then had to turn around and drive 9 hours. Luckily I don't have to work today.

The ROM is done and is uploading to Drive right now. Just doing one last test to make sure the boot stuff is working as it should be.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] :
how do you update in this rom anyway?

i recive an update from system update through setting and notting really happen after downloaded it and reboot
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Harfainx:
It won't update through the Asus updater. I actually removed it (again) in the rom. You won't get that in the future.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Harfainx:
R20 Google Drive link is live in the second post.

SVN hasn't been updated yet. I'll get that updated soon. I actually don't have SVN setup on this laptop (having multiple computers can be a problem sometimes).

Great news for everyone, ZE551ML ROM works on ZE550ML

Guys, this does work on ZE550ML, tried one more time, but this time also wiped SYSTEM partition and now I'm rocking this clean, lean ROM =)

So this is what I did:

- In TWRP recovery cleared "SYSTEM" + "DATA" + "CACHE" + "DALVIK CACHE"

- Install this ROM

- Clear caches once again

- Reboot and wait for the first setup screen, where you have to select the country

- Everything looks huge now, to fix this plug the phone to the pc and on windows CMD or Linux shell type:

<> adb shell

<> wm density 275

If you don't change the density, the setup will crash after a few screens, at least for me it did and changing the density, fixed it for me.

I'm now installing all my apps and if I find any issues I'll report back =)

ISSUE FOUND - Screen is not rotating, seems that one of the sensors is not being detected =( still using this ROM though :p

Enjoy ZE550ML users =)

device abruptly shuts down from recovery? anyone experiencing the same?

EDIT: I was able to go over the shutdown thingy, but I seem to be stuck on the ASUS zenfone 2 load screen for some weird reason.

wiped -> factory reset -- DONE

rebooted

Now stuck. Suggestions?

EDIT:

So here's what I did.

Flashed pre-rooted 2-19-40-18 IMG (fastboot flash system system.img)

Went to recovery - Installed GG1.1.1.zip (from recovery navigate to install, path where you placed GG1.1.1.zip)

Cleared cached after install (from recovery navigate to clear cache)

Rebooted (from recovery navigate to reboot)

Im on the setup screen.

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Harfainx:
Flashing this over pre-rooted image basically does nothing for you. It won't remove any of the installed apps. It will flash splashscreen, insecure boot, custom boot animation, and the tweaks. None of the bloat and apps will be removed though.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] gh0st-:
I flashed the pre-rooted image to have a baseline of somesort, did a wipe from recovery then had this installed. so Far I was able to have the FW without the bloat, trying to make my baseline for now (the failsafe recovery).

Well...at last succeeded installing.

It was all my fault

and thanx to all for the support.

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] bhazard451:
I've noticed I need to flash a certain way:

-I cannot adb command reboot recovery when in android... it fails to unmount system despite "wiping" it in TWRP. It needs to be done from a shut down device booting into recovery for some reason.

-The normal twrp wipe does not work. I need to manually select system+data+cache for it to wipe the previous installation apps.

-I can't be charging while flashing. The flash stops abruptly and turns the screen black/off unable to be turned back on. Flash the rom unplugged.

Then everything works great.

No antutu differences, but the device does seem smoother and has more RAM to play with.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] XneofuX:
I dont't think it made the device any smoother ... ran perfectly smooth before :p (asus made a pretty good job programming their apps)

I'll try to get something posted up later today.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Harfainx:
There really shouldn't be any difference in Antutu. There's no specialization/optimization done. It's just cleaned up, slimmed down, and a few small tweaks added.

From your three points though, I haven't seen any of those issues.

- I adb reboot recovery every time I go from booted to recovery. Too lazy to power off and hold buttons.

- When you want to get rid of system apps, you need to wipe system. Factory reset only removes user installed apps. For a clean flash, I always do system, data, cache, and dalvik.

- That's just weird. I always leave mine plugged into my laptop while flashing.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] :
