About the new update for Z000A , the changelog haven't a lot updates..

Sent from my Asus Z00A
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] AL_IRAQI:
New update posted :)

changelog in OP
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] wifestealer:
Is it possible to make an ota for this ROM? I mean you can make your own ota so whenever Asus releases you can do it too
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] volcy123:
finally :) thank you so much.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] AL_IRAQI:
Hi buddy

That's problem in Asus Stock Roms we should wait for them to fix it :(

Ota for this ROM will be 250MB or more, depends on Stock ROM ota changes so for me its not worth it ?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Recl@imer:
Thanks man. Let's hope they will fix it soon. Curious do the custom Roms have this working? Thanks

i will just load it on top of the prism v5? right?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ImjuzCY:
Yes
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] pinuno:
Can I dirty flash the new update? Thanks
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Kid_Ding:
Yes, just like [MENTION=4689896]ImjuzCY[/MENTION] stated. No wipe, "on top" of v5. I just finished the update myself.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] pinuno:
Does it really take too long when doing dirty flash? It's just like im stuck at ASUS loading screen after successfully flash the new update.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] wifestealer:
Never do dirty flash
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] pinuno:
So how can I fix this? Wipe all and then flash the v6?

thanks
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ImjuzCY:
I've done dirty flashing since v1 and nothing's not working. Try rebooting again and clean dalvik and cache.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ImjuzCY:
No mention in changelog means not supported I think? Cause F2FS is not yet available for use in stock based ROM. CM is supporting F2FS but it's not easy to implement in stock based ROM
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] rblaker:
Dirty flashed v5 to v6.. It works.

Bug: V3 Flip cover options force exits the system settings.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ImjuzCY:
Did you flash the Flip Cover zip?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] rblaker:
Yes. 3 times. Same thing happen.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Bushcrafter:
I just dirty flashed to v6 from v5,everything works just fine. I have dirty flashed every version since v1 without issue. Thanks to Al_Iraqi for the latest update!

It's ok, I don't know reason is, I'm downloaded the file from google drive, and then I've flashed that file plus the file of the xposed, I mean this is the really problem.

After the phone rebooted I've the error about flip cover and I flashed one plus the camera gif. Now phone booted and working.. I'll test the battery drain but I mean that this will works fine!!

Wiped Cache and Dalvik, flashed v6, all perfect, no problem. People are forgetting to wipe caches that is why the bootloops.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] h3r3tic:
I have dirty flashed from v3 to v4 to v5 with zero issues. When I dirty flashed v6 the first time it bootlooped but I wiped caches after I flashed. I went back in recovery wiped cache and Dalvik first then reflashed v6 and it booted fine.

After update - clock on lockscreen vanished. Restored it by installing Asus Weather App so my suggest is to add weather app to base package :)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Ashtrix:
I think you don't know the potential of Xposed, I'm thankful to

Al_iraqi

:good: for removing that.

Using LockscreenWidgetsLP gives you access to tons of UCCW & others...try it once and you'll never go back...;)

Attached my lockscreen scrshot (don't mind the quality as it's zoomed, on the ZF2 it looks great, ppi ftw)..:p

Can you please install sound recorder and see if it works with it ?

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Dan_Jacques:
Play store says that I dont have compatible phones.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] AL_IRAQI:
Make sure you're using stock dpi

And xposed module called play store fixes to force stock dpi to Playstore even if you're using different one
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ione2380:
Works, thank you. Strange fact is that I searched for Asus sound recorder in play store and didn't find it. But your link worked.

Nothing to see on this line

Thank you for your ROM, trying to use this ROM daily now.. :)

One question; is it possible to use SIM 2 for data connection?

Just trying to open Dual SIM cards settings, the message appears, "The data network service is on SIM 1 only"
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ImjuzCY:
SIM 2 cannot be used for data connection regardless of ROM. It's a hardware limitation.

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] MironV:
It seems that I am continuosly getting an "Android is upgrading message" upon boot, after I wiped the cache and dalvik..
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] jba.33a:
That is fully OK, it is absolutely normal behaviour - it should be like that... Android is upgrading message, counting apps, and device starts. It's same on all devices.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] MironV:
It didn't happen before wiping the cache and dalvik. Now it shows the message on every single boot. Is this what you're saying? Do you receive the message on every single boot?

And it always stucks on the boot animation..I had this issue with SuperZen ROM as well. Don't know if it's a hardware issue. I am using Prism and Project T kernel and nobody else seems to encounter the problem. Sometimes I have to boot my device up to 7 times (getting stuck on a boot animation loop). Maybe it's the external SDcard...don't know.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] cangcan:
do you use xposed framework? sometimes incompatible xposed modules may cause that..try to uninstall xposed first and see how it goes..
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] MironV:
I may try doing this. Even though I love all of my xposed modules :P

Btw, is anyone using the Xposed Lollipop Memory Fix module with the current 2.20.40.97? I am not seeing any improvement with it..

Maybe I can find out what other people aren't using from this list...to start unchecking them one by one:

-Amplify

-Greenify

-GravityBox [LP]

-Blurred System UI (LP)

-Lolistat

-ScreenOff Animation

-Smooth System Progress Bars

-XStana

-XToast

-XuiMod

-YouTube Background Playback

-Secure Settings
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] timwelter:
Hi, been loving this ROM! Just have one gripe with it, could you add back Okay Google functionality? (or give me a solution to add it back) Thanks!

Just download Google Search (now called Google) from playstore:

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] R2D20208:
I have this problem, after full wipe. Unable to install with TWRP. Need help. Ty.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] snap316:
Fix

[/COLOR]

Your Data / Cache partitions are not ext4, if they are f2fs try switching them to ext4, ensure you back up your internal storage as it will be wiped in the process.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] R2D20208:
How to switch to ext4 ? Ty !
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] snap316:
In TWRP, Go to wipe ==> advanced==> from the list of partitions select cache first

Then select change partition instead of wipe ==> Choose ext4 in the list and if you look at the very top it will tell you the current partition type.

Once you are done with cache, same process for data, warning it will wipe your internal storage as well.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Ramucio:
So any review abour new version, I use V5 no issues. Very nice
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] snap316:
Am running V7 in my WW asus 551ml Z00A 4 / 64GB @2.3Ghz, everything works.

Benchmark Antutu 49 K in performance mode 48.5 K in normal mode.

Approximately got 5.5 Hrs screen time with mixed playing Hitman sniper, real racing and internet usage while downloading close to 4gb in the process.

Xposed works .75 flashed through recovery with 3.0 beta

Running modules Greenify & Gravity box

Most importantly for me lync 2013 works flawlessly, I wasn't able to use it with AOSP & CM 12.1 based ROMs kept getting cannot connect to server.

Battery seems much better as well need more time to get conclusive results haven't run through a full cycle yet.

One minor thing the model no reads ASUS_Z00ADA, when it should be ASUS_Z00AD
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Dan_Jacques:
V7 is pretty smooth, battery consumption when idle (with light usage) is about 1,9%/h without greenify/amplify/powernap. Only a little thing: the permission manager is very intrusive. I dont find any way to disable it. So, any app that try to read contacts, lock GPS or turn on the camera have to ask it to the user. It's great to security, but annoying for normal use in first days (after some days all needed permitions are set).

I'm new with this phone. I had a LG G2, I'd like knowing if I can install the V7 of this rom on my device, my device is WW, btw I don't understand the difference between WW and CN. Thanks
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ImjuzCY:
CN is Chinese model and WW is the worldwide model. Stock CN doesn't include Google Apps like WW. But although v7 is based on latest CN ROM but the dev included the Google Apps in it. If you're okay with some of the system notification in Chinese then you can install v7. If not, use v6 which is based on latest WW ROM.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] matrixceccano:
Android system battery usage with cn version?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] geegs8:
Not any different for me, about 20%
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] XMoDuLeSx:
Same here using latest RR build so I guess it's a kernel related wakelock bug

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] yvessparks:
The error message would be very helpful don't you think. What model do you have? Did you unlock bootloader as in...did it give you a pass? Did you flash custom recovery after that? If so, which one?

In short, more information please.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] atahanali_57:
I unlocked my bootloader with Windroid Universal Tool. I know that because I can flash AOSP based or CM based ROMs. My device model is Z00A. I don't know the error message but it keeps doing it. I haven't try SuperZen but I'll try to install. I thought that maybe I have to do something before going to stock based ROMs. If so please let me know.
