Ok this is little weird but my phone is working fine now... i left my phone and waited for it to discharge completely...When i charged it again and turned it on the connectivity issue was gone... No network drops happenin anymore... This phone has some weird problems sometimes :laugh: but i still love it :silly:
[ZenFone 2 General] Val3r10:
Is this confirmed ?

Did the .22 upgrade fix the bootloader bug ?
[ZenFone 2 General] mikbob:
I have heard from other people that if you unlocked the bootloader before updating to the new version then the bootloader stays unlocked however I haven't seen any cases of people unlocking it after the update.
[ZenFone 2 General] rowbaggie22:
Here's mine
[ZenFone 2 General] mrmathematica:
I tried to unlocked in 2.19.40.22 once but it failed (booted into bootloader and then nothing happens). I ended up fastboot back to 2.19.40.18 and then unlocked successfully.
[ZenFone 2 General] WPMan:
Is there a way to fix the stuck in boot screen issue after updating OTA without erasing the data? I'm rooted and forgot to unroot before updating.
[ZenFone 2 General] mannulko:
This means around 2hrs of screen on time?
[ZenFone 2 General] rowbaggie22:
I think this is the worst off charge time I've had since having the fone since update usually lasts me 28 to 30 hours normally
[ZenFone 2 General] WPMan:
All good now. Has anyone seen the new Anti Theft feature?
[ZenFone 2 General] markwebb:
That is correct: I updated and kept unlocked boot loader and root.
[ZenFone 2 General] mikbob:
Looks like it is confirmed that while you cannot unlock in 40.22 unlocked bootloaders are preserved when updating past 40.18
[ZenFone 2 General] fonetyk:
Is there any way to go back to 2.19.40.18 or 2.19.40.20 in order to unlock the bootloader?
[ZenFone 2 General] fonetyk:
I'm trying to downgrade by sideloading the 2.19.40 version from ASUS, but at 50%~ I got the error "Can't install this package over newer build" Status 7

Help please? :( Have I bricked my phone?
[ZenFone 2 General] rlaw:
I think you need to downgrade every partition, not just the system one.
[ZenFone 2 General] fonetyk:
Thank you. I had to fastboot flash boot.img, droidboot.img, recovery.img and system.img
[ZenFone 2 General] ramnkc:
Folks,

Should I proceed to update latest OTA?
[ZenFone 2 General] thedisturbedone:
Try fastboot flashing. It should work.
[ZenFone 2 General] GeneralPag:
Its all up to you. For me latest OTA is fine, for someone latest OTA sucks. In a week or two 5.1. will be released.
[ZenFone 2 General] MatteXperiaU:
Are You sure?? [emoji120]
[ZenFone 2 General] GeneralPag:
These are only speculations , which I read.
[ZenFone 2 General] goolac:
Since this update, I have been getting random reboots. 1 or 2 a day. I have had the phone for 6 weeks and this is the first issue I have ever had with it. I pretty much run the phone stock but I do a lot of Bluetooth connectivity. Car, Pebble Time, Plantronics headset, etc.
[ZenFone 2 General] OfficerJimLahey:
Same here, well, random shutdowns. Happened twice to me yesterday (when it first occurred) but TBH it hasn't happened since (knock on wood). I am looking for a last_kmsg (maybe TWRP can generate/rotate one), but have also looked in /data/dontpanic, /data/tombstones, and /data/system/dropbox.

The latter one had stuff to analyze, I just didn't find the time to get it off my phone to look at yet (most interesting of which is gzip'd).
[ZenFone 2 General] zironia:
I had to download the previous version 2.18.40.12 full rom from asus site and download boot, droidboot and recovery from xda mega link. flash, boot, droidboot, and recovery then use adb sideload to load full rom back. once that finished. Root and sideload 2.19.40.20 update and you can unlock bootloader. Quite a process but I did it last night after my phone updated to 2.19.40.22 and couldnt unlock bootloader. Now I am unlocked with TWRP and running .22
[ZenFone 2 General] Bushcrafter:
+1. Yep, its happening with me too. Random reboots, 3 yesterday,will see what happens today.:(
[ZenFone 2 General] zironia:
I was getting reboots when charging my phone with a usb charger. Switched chargers and never had another reboot. not sure if related but just wanted to mention it.
[ZenFone 2 General] Bushcrafter:
Thanks for the tip! I will give it a try. I bought the Z551 with the fast charger,it would be a real shame if that's what the problem is.

It's funny that with every OTA update, Asus creates more bugs than they actually fix. Can't wait to get CM 12.1 for my Z551.:D
[ZenFone 2 General] mhp1995:
No random reboots on my phone... Rooted, ZE551ML on latest firmware, Stock recovery and locked bootloader... Does any of you guys have un-locked bootloader or flashed the custom recovery??
[ZenFone 2 General] OfficerJimLahey:
Unlocked bootloader here, would have been done this time last week (didn't change the splashscreen). Flashed TWRP last night (after the second shutdown, in hopes to get a last_kmsg next time it happens - has yet to). 2.19.40.20 FW (yeah, I gotta change that), 551 2GB WW model.
[ZenFone 2 General] mhp1995:
I am not sure but it can be bevause of that...some bug occurs or something which forces the phone to reboot...some way we can get log??
[ZenFone 2 General] GeneralPag:
I have unlocked bootloader, installed TWRP and latest FW (2.19.40.22.) and Im not facing any random reboots. Yes I have 1,8Ghz and 2 Gb ram mode.
[ZenFone 2 General] OfficerJimLahey:
The only logs I found saved up to the point of time of the shutdown were exp_det_cert_pin_failure@####...txt.gz logs, which when uncompressed, start reading like...

*.google.com|false|false|

...and the rest looks like a hash. There would be several of these leading up to, in the same hour of the shutdown.

I still have to look in the other locations (/data/dontpanic, /data/tombstones) to see if files show up (including TWRP for /proc/last_kmsg) - right now, the folders are empty (and even TWRP isn't registering a last_kmsg).
[ZenFone 2 General] Harfainx:
Been using my custom ROM and I haven't gotten a single random reboot or shutdown.

I wonder if it's one of the apps that are removed that might be causing it? It's strange to see complaints about this, as I pound away at my phone constantly while working on it. Never had it reboot or shutdown on me.
[ZenFone 2 General] Bushcrafter:
I have the 551,with 4GB of ram and 64 GB of internal storage. I'm on the stock 2.19.40.22 OTA build. It has the bootloader unlocked,the unteathered twrp installed and no apps frozen or uninstalled.:confused: My phone did not have this issue until I installed the .22 OTA update.:(
[ZenFone 2 General] smaurice2001:
New Delhi you are on the 2.19.40.22 and you manage to root it? I try to find a tutorial to root 2.19.40.22 tru adb on Linux. all the tutorial I find use a .bat to root .bat only run on windows. wen use on Mint terminal with adb devices I see my phone and adb reboot bootloader bring my Zenfone in fastboot so I know that everything work fine. Do you know a way to root without a .bat file?

Never mind find my answer on Asus Zenfone 2 | Resources all in one thread here http://xdaforums.com/zenfone2/general/asus-zenfone-2-flashing-recovery-mode-t3096596
[ZenFone 2 General] Bushcrafter:
Update: My phone rebooted two more times by itself yesterday. Both times the same thing! The home screen wall paper had changed back to the stock one and all the apps were back to original spots. I rebooted the the phone again and the wallpaper and apps that I had on the home screen were back to the way I had set them up originally. I'm getting really tired of this. On the verge of going out and buying another SAMSUNG!
[ZenFone 2 General] Harfainx:
Sounds like SysUI did some weird reset. Maybe it got an update that messed things up? That's a strange issue.
[ZenFone 2 General] Bushcrafter:
Yep really strange issue is right! I'm going to flash your Super Zen ROM and give it a shot! It might save me a $1000.00 on buying a new S6 edge SAMSUNG!:D
[ZenFone 2 General] glock24:
I've been using latest .22 update since yesterday, I've not seen any bugs. The only change I've noticed is that it prompts me to set up screen lock security.
[ZenFone 2 General] Bushcrafter:
Well I flashed Harfainx's Superzen ROM. Hopefully my reboots are a thing of the past.:)
[ZenFone 2 General] Ratedzelaya:
Thus .22 update has given me some problems with performance and battery life, I've also seen the phone freeze up and had to shut it down to unfreeze. Is anyone else having theses issues
[ZenFone 2 General] whynottoday:
Yes same issue for me
[ZenFone 2 General] Bushcrafter:
I also had the same issues as described above.
[ZenFone 2 General] hypertech:
i just got a .22 update notice of 96mb...
[ZenFone 2 General] viit_saha:
I have ZE550ML and from India

but the latest update .23 is a sh..it, it says "Improve modem capability in India" and I found it has made modem capability worst in India, once I updated, I started getting no signal randomly on SIM1 and SIM2 , and I had to turn on the flight mode and turn it off again to search network automatically.

after checking more , I found due to this battery is draining like anything, unfortunately I had to downgrade to the prior version,

this is a buggy update please don't update.
[ZenFone 2 General] gipikay:
Is there any way (official or not) to roll back or revert this last update? Or my only choice is to manually flash a stable ROM?

I haven't rooted or unlocked the bootlaoder...yet
[ZenFone 2 General] iqbal_mahmuda:
Flashed ota 2.19.40.22 from 2.19.40.20 2 weeks ago, not encountering any bugs or improvements at all. I think ASUS made this fota for restrict unofficial bootloader unlock method by ravian29.

How to flash the bootloader from 2.19.40.20 without flashing the full rom? Or should i wait the official bootloader unlock for ze551ml? One more question, if my zf2 is bootloader unlocked with unofficial method, can i get my warranty back? :(

Sorry for such a noob question,

This is my first bootloader locked phone anyway :(
[ZenFone 2 General] Siddk007:
I recently updated my ZE550ML to 2.19.40.23. network signal is not there most of the times in weak areas. Battery starts draing as soon as I unlock and start using the device. ASUS, i'm happy that you give frequent ota updates but please check before. give 5.1 ASAP!!
[ZenFone 2 General] prc.kailas:
if you installed busybox . it will patch system files. so you just flash original (adb sideload) raw rom and inject temporary twrp/cwm and make a backup (before injecting su app) for further use. if boot loop occur just restore twrp backup and just unroot and update OTA and re root

no once boatloader get unlocked its forever. cant lock it again so no go home ??
[ZenFone 2 General] hypertech:
for those that have major probleme with the last update. try to factory reset from recovery. maybe it will help.

after each update i always do a factory reset from recovery menu. i know its a pain to reset everything.
[ZenFone 2 General] goolac:
Yep that fixed it for me. No random reboots, since factory restore. :good:

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] jowett69:
been new to this phone (O2 orbit), is the GPS on all the time or can you monitor or turn it off. Try some GPS software, but seems to take along time. Wait for memory card so I put on tomtom and i-go. hope they do better.

thanks
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Gajet:
The GPS is activated automaticaly by software as it's required, indicated by the flashing orange LED.

The first time to fix is always slow due to the GPS receiver localising, subsequent locks should be quicker to achieve. The process can be speeded up more by using the QuickGPS application that comes with this device.

For me, time to achieve a full 3d lock is about 30 seconds.

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] alone_in_dark:
Hello guys, today I am going to show you, how you can manually focus or tap to focus while recording video with your xperia devices. It's the most important feature that Sony devices are lacking. Actually they didn't provide it directly. But the feature is provided indirectly ;)

Here are the steps:

1. Navigate to "Manual mode" ( you can't do it with auto mode)

2. Navigate to video and go to "Options" (The 3 dot menu)

3. Go to "Focus mode" and select "object tracking"

4 Go to "Metering" and select "spot"

5. Turn "Steady Shot" off

Here is a video made by me showing how to do it and focusing in action ;)

hi all, this is my first post but have been viewing a while,

im not sure an upgrade is what i should be looking at and have never done this before,

to avoid bricking it i would like to ask a few questions if you can help that would be excellent,

1. i have a standard out of the box o2 xda orbit that i purchased from car phone (you know the shop) and it came unlocked to any network, its obviously running the o2 version of WM5, im using a vodafone sim and have followed various settings to try get my gprs/mms/internet working but just cant get anywhere,

will upgrading to a different rom help this.

2. what is the best rom out there for this phone and where can i get it

3. i seem to find the forums scattered with instruction i have searched and tried to compile some sort of understandable document but im reluctant to use it incase i have missed something in my search,

is there an easy to follow newbies guide out there, if so can you point me in the right direction,

i am on other forums for different things and im aware of the etiquate of asking for information thats already there, i have searched but i dont want to turn this phone into a brick just because in my search i have missed a step that i was not aware of in the first place,

i hope you can all understand why i have asked this question, some that have bricks might and others with the knowledge may not, lol, well dont those people,

all the best and i hope this will be a good start for me here,

As the title suggests my sony z2 will not respond to touch input. Yet strangely it will work for a day or two then it wont respond then a few minutes later it might be fine. But then on other occasions i need to let the battery die and then restart the phone for touch to come back. Originally i assumed it was because I recently had my screen repaired and it was a cheap part, but the fact that the screen doesnt work at random times makes me believe it is a software issue. If anyone else is having a similar problem or knows any sort of fix please let me know.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alone_in_dark:
99% chance is that, it is your touch panel problem. Flash latest firmware through flashtool and see if the problem is gone. And why should you wait for full discharge? There is a power button beside your sim tray. You can also power it down by pressing and holding "power+volume up" button until it vibrates.
