Is there a chance for a more frequent update MM bootloader edition?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] ccav2000:
To all users who had issues with recent opengapps builds: The developer states that the issues should be resolved with today's (November 1st) build (check the official thread here) so we all may again be able to use the latest builds.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] ccav2000:
For all of you who keep asking about CM14, don't expect it anytime soon. Refer to this article.

Thanks for the info.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] jimmys121979:
we can wait for cm14..there is no reason to talk for this all the time..and maybe this article is fake.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] ccav2000:
If you read the article fully, they claim that development continues but on CM14.1, which is Android 7.1. But that doesn't mean we'll see anything soon, there are HAL issues that need to be sorted first.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] jimmys121979:

[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] ccav2000:
That's good news then. But our models are not Qualcomm based, it will take more time. Anyway enough with the offtopic, the reality of it is that only our OS developers know exactly the situation. We can only wait.

I am having massive battery draining

Any help is recommended

BTW I did try greenify

I am on 23/10 model and my battery drains like melting of an ice !

It's draining very fast,even when kept ideal 1% decrease hardly take 10 minutes !!

I am always stuck with a power bank !

Any solutions to this ?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] :
Use ForceDoze, Amplify and else.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] BuckyBug:
Thanks,will try for a while.

While using Amplify it requires Xposed framework,but one of the senior member suggested to not use Xposed on CM13 as it causes problem many time(not fully compatible).

Are you using Xposed on cm13 ?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] ccav2000:
When you say it drains the battery, you mean when it is on standby (screen off) or when you use it (screen on)? On standby I have 1% per hour with the official nightlies.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] BuckyBug:
Its drain faster in both cases- with screen on as well as screen off. I observe a decrease of 1% in less then 30min with screen off.

But I still can manage that,1% is not a big deal

My major concern is when I am using my phone.

At present I use 4G mobile data and use device mainly for web browsing,youtube and listening to music ( NO GAMES ) and my battery drains in less then 6 hours !!

Today I started from 100% and used play store and visited XDA so far and now it's been 2 hours and my battery has decreased to 78%. A huge 22% drop just for play store and crime.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] ccav2000:
Ah, you are using 4G... that pretty much explains your issue. The Intel modem our devices have lack the tracking envelope IC resulting in high power usage when connected to 4G networks. The newer Intel modems finally added the feature as you can see in this article and it reduces the power usage a lot. Needless to say, Qualcomm has this feature in their modem for years now...

Only solution to this, prefer 3G networks or Wi-Fi. That's what I do, I even switch to 2G manually when I don't need to use the net.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] BuckyBug:
Still any battery saving application that can help reducing drainage !?
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] michael_hamada:
Very well, I'm so glad to hear that, dude.

No Fast Charging On This Build ?

*Using The 18w Boostmaster Charger
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] przemas81:
I have installed nightly from 2016-02-11, so todays :) and I cannot send SMS if I have set to every time ask which SIM card is sending SMS. If I set SIM 1 I can send with SIM 1. I think it's a bug, but if known then I'm sorry for writing it, I have not found anything about this bug. Every time manual selecting which card is sending SMS in SIM Card options is very annoying.
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] jrior001:
Yep, We just randomly enable and disable fast charging in new builds to harass people.

For real though this has been covered so many times in this thread. Fast charging requires a good USB cable and a proper communication sequence between charger and device. If it's not perfect on the first attempt, it won't fast charge. Unplug/re-plug or get a better USB cable.

Fast charge has been included and functional in every build we've ever released.

Long time haven't updated my Zen2. I noticed there are MMblobs. Gonna upgrade now...

Ok i upgraded to MMBlobs however i had to flash twrp manually after using upgrade.bat. Wasn't sure if there was any other flashing to do after booting into bootloader from the script... Anyway i went into recovery and flashed newest nightly for MMBlobs etc and seems to be working well with dirty flash.

Everytime I boot now saids ' failed verification' . I assume the 'Verification Failed' message is normal and have successfully installed MMBlobs
[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] musicman5844:
Its normal it will say that every time you turn your device on and off as its not stock bootloader

[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] dingdong3000:
Ok solution found for those having issues with changing boot animation. Device was not reading bootanimation.zip file not from /system/media, but from /data/system/theme. You have to apply the theme and then move the zip file from /data/system/theme to /system/media

[ZenFone 2 Original Android Development] Rogier Oudshoorn:
First off, I would like to say I am really happy with this ROM on my zenfone. I've been using it for almost a year now, and it is rock solid. I used to have two problems, which I managed to address. Since I hear a lot of complains in this thread about them, I would like to share.

Battery drain

When I stay at home (inside WiFi), I get almost two full days on a charge. If I travel (usually abroad, outside of WiFi), the battery would struggle until the nightly charge. This is caused by the power hungry 4G connectivity in this iteration of the intel modem; the problem disappears if you set primary SIM to prefer 3g. (For the record, I believe the newer 4g intel modems such as used in the iphone 7 have fixed the issue)

Second sim stability

My second simcard would inexplicably drop and come back, sometimes highlighting sim settings on my phone. This is a hardware issue (!), as the second sim slot isn't as tight as the primary one. Essentially, my second sim would move around in the slot and therefor breaking connectivity. I fixed this by cutting two pieces of think paper that wedges in between the simcards, fixing them in place.
