Everything work in 07/08 build, except fast charge (no led ?) and video hardware acceleration (+ or not) give blackscreen after few seconds on MxPlayer.

Thanks and big up for all dev ! :)

Anyone find battery draining in Aug07 built?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] keepfishes:
Attached are some screenshots of my battery page... Not very helpful though, I've been charging and using it intermittently, but seems like battery is somewhat similarly bad compared to stock asus rom in this 07/08 version.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] tieuquaisonic1460:
Does dirty flash work too cuz I'm not going to reinstall everthing again
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] keepfishes:
Yes it works, that's what I just did.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] Abd121:
So CM12.1 don't have FM radio app.......

Is there any way to get radio to work?

I tried flashing the Asus radio but it didn't work!
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] keepfishes:
The gesture typing is not working on the keyboard too I just realised... I've tried disabling and re-enabling it but it's not working still.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] jrior001:
Never does in CM by default. There's a lib that Google keeps private, nothing we can do about it. Install Google keyboard(or any other swype keyboard) from play store if you want that feature.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] Heavybullets:
Combination

This ROM with Xposed and Lspeed is a dream.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] Kokumotsu:
Did the data issue ever get fixed with the newer updates yet? I'm currently downloading ROM atm
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] Heavybullets:
Ya

If you're talking about the sim card not detected then yea.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] tieuquaisonic1460:
Hey Ive found some bugs :

System randomly restart sometime(maybe due to xposed), then I have to optimize app again

Lastest version 7/8 drain too much batteries

Sometime some sepicifed quick setting toggles disapear

Official TWRP can't flash this ROM(Z008D)

App sometimes crashes

Other than that its awsome, but I find it difficult to use it one handed dye to large screen, so one handed mode maybe ?

I can confirm this with the 31-July build. It often displays an exclamation point and seems to forget how to talk to my carrier (T-Mobile). Usually, popping in and out of Airplane mode fixes the situation. Sometimes a reboot is needed before toggling the Airplane mode. This is with the Z00A and only one SIM.

Newer than what?

The build as of 31-July has a huge problem where cellular data will unexpectedly stop working. See my response above.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] Ntrasme:
I don't think LSpeed would help much with the ROM. Most of its tweaks (VM and RAM manager) are already integrated. If you have a custom kernel then you also have various other tweaks.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] french-anonymous:
It works good for me. Two bugs only for the moment :

- the known bug with camera crashing when switching front/back

- and another but less important : when you modify a photo with curves (you know, for brightness/darkness) it is really messed up. I think anyone can try to reproduce the bug.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] Mononon:
So far, any performance "improvements" from modules or kernels seems to be almost purely a placebo effect. I noticed zero difference between multiple kernels and configurations, except worse battery life.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] moyses:
Please can some one help me to instal mx player pro

I tried from play store ----Error 505

Installing apk the same with the codec x86
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] keepfishes:
Anyone using dual sims? Sometimes the second sim card just shows "no service", putting it in and out of airplane mode doesn't help. Only a reboot solves the issue. I'm on latest 07/08 build on a Z008.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] ((RayDar)):
I get the "No service" problem as well as the exclamation point and I am only using one SIM on a Z00A.

* Sometimes toggling Airplane Mode fixes it.

* Sometimes doing a "Network operators" search fixes it. However, this sometimes presents an error.

A reboot is often the only remedy.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] keepfishes:
For me the first sim is working perfect, only problem is with the second sim.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] blueincubi:
go to Settings> SIM cards > SIM2 settings >network operators

then you have to "log-in" to your network manually. have to do that everytime you boot up/airplane mode.

i'm not having that issue anymore though, as of 7/8 build

New bugs found : When I tried to change aduioFX mode from none to small room, mdium room, large room and so on, it carshes
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] tej911:
I have 3 doubts. 1) Is the OS 64 bit? (we know that stock OS is not 64bit eventhough kernel is 64bit) ; 2) Does this works in Z00AD (i.e, 64GB model ) ; 3) Does Double Tap to sleep works? (I m glad DT2W works but I m used to DT2S also)

Thankyou in Advance.. Kudos to developers
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] kanagawaben:
Double tap sleep works in status bar (set it in settings under display), but I turned it off and instead set double tap the home button to sleep (settings under buttons). Very nice feature.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] Abd121:
Mine is Z00AD..... It works pretty well (I don't even have the sim and camera bug)

But of course the ROM will rename your device to Z00A

The only problems is with battery (heat while charging and lower results than zenUI)
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] kanagawaben:
So happy to have this working on my 550. It's buttery smooth and the only real issues I have met have been a few kind of boot loops (not getting past "starting apps"), easily rectified by powering off and back on again, a more serious boot loop when trying to change dpi in the display settings, and the well known camera problems. My Antutu score (see below) is exactly the same as it was on stock. Wifi and LTE connections seem to work just fine, maybe better than stock. Massive thanks to the devs who have made this possible!
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] windylawyer.1712:
As i know and my experience, CM never get the battery better than stock :D i just hope it will get the same battery usage like stock

Battery in my opinion is a little better, and does anyone have soft reboot problem, I'm stuck at starting app untilled I power it off and on again, and the optimize start every time I boot up
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] windylawyer.1712:
i have that prob too, but not everytime. just the first boot. after that phone boot fine

I made a clean install and I did not have any problem at all. I expected some frequent bugs, but really, except the camera one and the images edition, everything is perfectly working for me.

God, it's so sweet to run CM on that phone, stock rom made me crazy with bloatwares, many bugs, ram consumption, soft reboots... Seriously I wish I could help improve CM but I know nothing (John Snow) about coding. Any idea for me to help ?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] windylawyer.1712:

That's weird, I've wipe everthing before I install this rom and after every reboot I have to optimize app again, mayybe its xposed ???
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] french-anonymous:
Probably yes. Exposed is very agressive for the system.

data issue

if data fixed for sim1 on rogers?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] keepfishes:
Battery life on the 07/08 ROM was quite bad, as shown in the attached screenshot.

I had only 1hr 42 min of SOT before battery dropped to 50%. I also realised that the phone was not going into sleep and something is causing wake lock as seen by the "awake" bar even when the screen is off.

I have flashed the 08/08 nightly and will use my phone again tomorrow and report back regarding battery life.

Attached are the screenshots on my Z008.

I think I read about this earlier but can't find the post. I'm getting screen flickering during video playback and the screen goes black after a few seconds. Anyone know what the issue is?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] keepfishes:
On the 08/08 ROM, second SIM still not detected sometimes even after reboot, and double tap to wake doesn't work at times (need to press the power button). Otherwise its great!
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] jeanne8fr:
You have to set your player to software decoding.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] nikhilsivan:
Screen flickering on video play back. Can be fixed enabling software decoding. Will this affect battery? Please fix this in future updates. This issue was not present in builds before 28.07.2015.

Thanks to devs.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] kanagawaben:
I am trying to get a measure of battery performance today (0807 build on my ZE550ML). Have been using since fully charged early this morning, and have tried to do a fair mix of my usual activities - browsing, social media, gaming, reading, note taking and so on. Later will add some streaming radio and youtube video use. Some of this been on wifi and some on LTE. I don't have greenify or any other battery saving tweaks, and am pretty much using it as it comes at set up (set to wifi always on, but always scanning off). I usually turn off location. Using google now launcher with cards on but ok google off. So far it is looking pretty good. Screenshots of battery stats at 65% of battery remaining below. I get the red bar for mobile connection because I use a data-only (no voice) sim with IP phone service. The only way around this is to install xposed framework and the data-only sim patch, but I don't want to do this now as it is unhelpful for giving feedback to the devs.

[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] kanagawaben:
Battery test still going well on a day of fairly heavy use. On top of earlier activities, have now watched quite a few videos on you tube, browsed a bit more, downloaded a bunch of apps and themes and fiddled with them, listened to a short video podcast and received a couple of IP calls. With 33% battery left, was at nearly 5 hours SOT:
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] nikhilsivan:
Are you using greenify or xposed? Or just the cm rom?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] kanagawaben:
As I said a bit earlier, I am not using greenify, xposed or any other battery tweaks. I am not using any battery saving mode on the phone, Wifi is set to stay on during sleep but always scan is off. The only thing I have really done to try and extend life a bit is keep screen brightness at about half and turn off location.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] nikhilsivan:
You are on which build?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] kanagawaben:
8.7, but you can read my post from earlier today (a page or so back) for more details of my set up and what I am trying to do.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] threi_:
Turning off location will do you any better than any sort of battery tweak/battery saver app ever could.

People really underestimate how much Google's many running services wreak havoc on phone battery life, especially idle drain.

It's worse than any rogue 3rd party app.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] kanagawaben:
OK, I had to quit the test and put the phone on charge when it hit the 15% warning. Wanted to take it down to about 5%, but going out this evening so need a bit of juice. Got near 6 hours mixed use SOT in about 12 hours total since took it off charge this morning. Android OS still shows as the main battery drain.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] tieuquaisonic1460:
Why is my LED shows green from 90% on

[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] keepfishes:
Thats incredible battery life... On my Z008 on the latest 08/08 and 09/08 (flashed it just now as soon as it was released) ROM, my battery performance is not as good. My battery had gone down to 41% with only 1hr 52 min of SOT. Like you, I have turned location mode to battery saving and wifi scanning to off. Not sure what I am doing wrong...

My Wifi is as per normal, no problems for me...
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] kevinkip:
Would you mind sharing the general settings you used and tweaks?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] acejavelin:
Because that's standard CM behavior, it will also be red at 15% or lower.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] everdred:
I'm having an issue after flashing the ROM a few times where my phone shuts off when the battery hits 30%. I'm assuming there is something wrong with the way my phone is reading the battery and 30% is really 0%. I fully charged my phone and did a full wipe (including system) and I'm still having the problem. Any solutions?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] kanagawaben:
Can't really think of anything much to add to what I have already mentioned. I did nothing special.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] odd790:
How do I upgrade?

I have to download the latest and then he flashed the recovery ?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] tieuquaisonic1460:
Try wiping battery stats, I use advance battery cailibrator which you can download for free in play store, or boot in twrp there's an option for wiping battery stats I don't remember where but its there

Yes, but FYI use the CM recovery, the official TWRP doesn't work for me, idk about ssj's never tried, but if you need to flash gapps or xposed later then you will need to flash twrp after installing the ROM

Note : If you're going from stock please perform full wipe, if you're going from older build then you can dirty flash
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] SenpaiCham:
What's the Difference of TheSSJ and CM Recovery ?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] cangcan:
[MENTION=2836769]jrior001[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3857343]crpalmer[/MENTION], gpu clock stays in 457mhz in current stock cm kernel, or maybe this app aida64 misread it..Is there anyway to underclock it so that it can run on 200mhz without flashing custom kernel? and doesnt this will consume more battery usage?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] tieuquaisonic1460:
Well they are quite the same, but the official one get supported directly from the TWRP team when ssj's is his build of TWRP but basiclly they work the same. If one doesn't get what you need then try another one

---------- Post added at 02:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:33 PM ----------

It should be consuming more batteries cuz the CPU speed is overclocked, you can try configuring it, CM comes with a tool for you to clock your CPU, idk where that went in this build, maybe it will work
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] Ntrasme:
IIRC, TheSSJ stated that the GPU always runs at the same voltage so only loads will affect its battery consumption. You can edit the frequency through editing the sys/class/devfreq/dfrgx/min_freq file.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] Mononon:
There's nothing that seems to help this particular device at the moment. I've tried various configurations, and just leaving it stock seems to yield the best results. With the Android OS issue, almost everything else is meaningless by comparison. You can basically leave your screen on all day and it still won't outdo the Android OS. Not even close, actually. Point being, SOT on this device will basically be whatever you want. Unless you're watching video, the screen (and everything else) won't make an appreciable difference on your battery life. It's interesting and annoying. Doze in Android M may be what helps this device, as that's really the only system level way to stop the wake lock.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] Adusparx666:
Can someone give me a link to the compatible xposed version

What recovery is safer to use? CM or TWRP?

---------- Post added at 04:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:17 PM ----------

You can use any they work the same, but the official TWRP doesn't work with flashing the rom for Z008D, idk about Z00A and ssj's twrp so I recommend using the cm recovery to flash rom and if you need to flash xposed or gapps later you will need twrp, cm recovery doesnt help(maybe its just me)
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] dodongobongo:
Is it possible to figure out which kernel module is causing the battery drain? I own a tablet based on Intel Bay Trail, and the battery was absolute trash there as well until newer firmware and drivers came in.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] crpalmer:
More big changes to hwcomposer. coming.

Previously, I switched us from our source built version of hwcomposer to the Asus closed-source version. This fixed problems where apps such as chrome would not display much when rotated. However, it also broke video playback from some apps when using hw decoding.

The reason I switched to using the Asus version was that it is very different from the only source code that we have available (from fugu) and was fixing a problem that, well, honestly, I didn't really want to try to debug. However, since it also then broke other things I also didn't want to debug I had to look into it some more... :)

What we end up with is that the closed-source Asus version supports things that we may or may not even be able to support in CM related to external displays but using it requires that we would use Asus versions of everything related to the media playback, display, etc. It's possible to do the work to move in this direction but I'm reluctant to do so because that makes it impossible to actually fix any problems in an important layer of the software and because it potentially ties us to Asus for future updates (we may not be able to release an M based version of CM until Asus releases M and may never release a N based version of CM if Asus doesn't release N).

Tomorrow's build contains changes to hwcomposer to hopefully make it work right (I've tested all the basic use-cases) and keeps us on the open source path for now. This may have to change again in the future but for now it sounds like the best path.

Let us know if you have new problems after tomorrow's build.

bootloop after changing DPI to 240 in display setting. can't go through after optimizing apps. [MENTION=3857343]crpalmer[/MENTION]
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] woqii:
I have reached a point with battery stats where I feel the reporting of actual usage is incorrect. It doesn't make sense that over a 24hour period, Android OS takes 50%+ of battery usage, and Screen on with 4hrs of SOT takes up only 3%. BBS and wakelock detector give a better indication of usage and sleep however. Right now Im averaging -2% battery per hour, less if left completely idle.

Going beyond the fixation of battery usage as a user, through the following config I have obtained the following routine (1 charge a day, average of 3-4hrs of SOT, might be lower if playing games):

-Xposed

-Greenify in boos working mode

-PowerNap with the apps I like enabled for the most part (quite frankly, most google stuff is allowed anyway so I doubt this is actually helping much)

One thing I cannot understand is, sometimes post complete charge to 100% the device enters this state where barely any battery drains. Stays this way for a couple of hours and then starts draining normally. Still baffles me a bit xD An example of this with even 45mins of SOT draining only 2% usage below:

Dunno lol.

[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] wmc90:
New build (20150810) has introduced screen tearing (noticeable when scrolling lists with a slow fling) and some 3rd party camera apps not connecting to camera (Google Camera is what I'm trying here).

On another note, it appears the flashlight functionality is only using one of the LEDs... the horrible blue one as opposed to the "flesh tone" one. Both work fine when using the camera as a flash. Any possibility of getting both of them on when using the flashlight?

I wouldn't know what stock behaviour is as I only booted it once to unlock :P
