[ZenFone 2 General] LNXblack:
So first off I would like to thank every one that has added to this.

That said I want share what my experience has been with this phone and what I've ended up with.

So my wife bought this Zenphone 2e and from day one it had serious issues. Namely and most aggravating it wouldn't even move apps to the micro SD card. Looking further it though the internal memory was the SD card so it would move then from internal to internal. After the first app t said that the internal was full but it wasn't. Re GPS sensor always place us literally 5 miles from where we were, in any app we used.

There was a lot more wrong with it too. I figured it was just a defective phone and I have my wife my perfect Moto E2.

I found this thread and went to work. At first I thought all was lost because nothing seemed to work. Then I realized I was using adb and fast boot on Windows 10. Made some corrections and everything has gone so well.

Now the phone is running the stock Zenphone 2 Z00D ROM and no more AT&T junk in the way. I don't have root anymore but since it's my wife's it doesn't matter and I have not tried to regain it.

So now EVERYTHING works right on the phone now. GPS, storage, moving apps, everything. Even runs faster than day one.

So again I want to thank everyone here for working hard on this and for making my wife happy in the process.

ATT Zenfone 2 500CL ATT_12.16.10.95

Hi, I have the same phone. I bought it in the US while visiting for three months and are now back in NZ. I want to remove the ATT stuff as we don't have ATT here. I have the phone unlocked and use it on our network.

Is there a step by step to do this as I'm not familiar with phone operating systems and the various acronyms and software?

Thanks,

Glad to hear it, in order to boot into recovery easily from now on, go to settings>about phone>and tap on build number about 5 times to enable developer options, then go back into settings and now right above about phone it should day developer options, tap on that and search for advanced reboot. Enable that, now power button your phone into reboot, and then into recovery. Once in twrp,,,then install, search for your gapps zip package and swipe to install. Reboot system, boom your gappified

Try uploading the ROM via TWRP , TWRP but did not work , so try via CWM and I bricked my phone . On power does not pass the Intel logo and when connected to PC recognizes it as a device: Coverview plus. If I try to enter the bootloader only displays a USB icon .

I tried to recover the intel software Xsftk XDA following tutorials without success. I think the problem is that these tutorials are for other models Asus Zenfone and none for ZE500CL ( Z00D ) . I managed to download the .bin files, but I think the problem when trying to update via Xsftk lies in the parameter : GP Flag Override Value , the value for other models are 0x80000245 , 305, 205 and 807 but not the value for ZE500CL appears .

If someone had this problem and has solved much you appreciate report by this route .

Thanks in advance to the whole community. !

Intente subir la rom via twrp, pero twrp no funcionaba, asi que intente via cwm y he brickeado mi telefono. Al encenderlo no pasa del logo de Intel y al conectarlo al PC lo reconoce como un dispositivo: Coverview plus. Si intento entrar al bootloader solo muestra un icono de USB.

He intentado recuperarlo con el software de intel Xsftk siguiendo tutoriales de XDA, sin exito. Creo que el problema radica en que estos tutoriales son para otros modelos Asus Zenfone y ninguno para el ZE500CL (Z00D). He logrado descargar los archivos .bin, pero creo que el problema al intentar actualizar via Xsftk radica en el parametro: GP Flag Override Value, cuyo valor para otros modelos son 0x80000245, 305, 205 y 807 pero no aparece el valor para el ZE500CL.

Si alguien a tenido este problema y lo ha solucionado mucho le agradecería informar por esta via.

Thanks

First at all , thanks for the help that you provide on this forum and specially for Robot_Head that is always willing to help everybody.

With some reading and Robot_Head help, I finally Root and flash my Zenfone2E, since the first time the sim card was not reconized by the phone, I tried restart, removing and placing back the sim, wipe and install again the room but nothing work. Just in two occasions I got signal from my TMobile network, but didn't last for more than 5 minutes. I've tried two rooms, the CM 12 and the AICP with same results.

what I can do to fix this?

please advice, thanks.

Hi, I seem to have ended up with an unofficial version of Android. I'm not sure why that is. Is this why it won't update?

Also I have an Asus Zenfone Z00D according to the Device Model and also Baseband Version M3.20.1_ZE500CL_1507.03. It has 12.1-20160625-Unofficial-Z00D on it. I see when I'm reading about phones there is no D model. There is A, B, L and T. Which should I read for the D model?

Do I have to manually install the official version to get updates? eg CM13 or 14

Hi! thank you so much for this guide, i found it realy helpful! i'm having a little trouble tho.. when i am on twrp to install a custom rom i cannot acces my external sd card. i go into select storage but it wont let me select my external sd card... any ideas? or can i flash a zip file from the internal memory even after doing a full wipe?
[ZenFone 2 General] robot_head:
Don't wipe your internal storage or else it will delete whatever is on there. Then you won't be able to flash anything. Yes you can Flash from the internal storage normally when I download a ROM I don't put it on my SD card I just leave it where it's at on internal and if I like it I will save it to my external SD card.

Also when you are in recovery go into Mount and make sure system and external SD are ticked
[ZenFone 2 General] fabi.m:
i already when into mount and it wont let me selct it either it says "Micro SD (0 MB)"..but then how do i flash the ROM without doing a wipe?
[ZenFone 2 General] robot_head:
Wipe: system, dalvik, data, cache...Leave ext sd and internal storage alone
[ZenFone 2 General] fabi.m:
Hello again, so i just installed AICP but its still asking for a "SIM network unlock PIN"... any more ideas?

phone is stuck on Intel logo

I'm having same problem. did you ever find a solution?

My phone is stuck on Intel logo.

I tried to follow directions, but TWRP would not take. Even though everything said "Okay" in fastboot mode, it would only go into stock recovery.

For some reason I can't explain, I thought maybe I should run the unlock and relock tool again and relock the bootloader after i flashed twrp image again.

Now phone is stuck on Intel logo. Will not enter recovery mode. When I try to boot it into fastboot mode, the USB logo appears briefly, then phone is stuck on Intel logo.

Did I totally brick it? :crying:

I read another post on some other website that said leave the phone, powered off, connected to charger for about 20 minutes, and then do fastboot again. IDK how that could possibly make a difference, but I'm about 3 minutes into the 20 minutes now.
[ZenFone 2 General] robot_head:
As long as your phone can power on you should be able to recover. If your phone does not respond will not power on and will not charge then it is hard bricked

Good evening,

My kid's friend has one of these phones and in the process of trying to wipe it and install Russian Bear, it appears they deleted the local SD.

I connected it to ADB and also checked TWRP, but any time it tries to sideload or upgrade, it is reporting :

E:Primary block device 'dev/block/mmcblk0p14' for mount point 'data' is not present!

Unable to mount '/data' etc etc etc for all the other directories it can't mount.

Any assistance in getting this working would be appreciated as it appears they wiped the internal SD and it needs to be reformatted or something but I'm at limit of my abilities.
[ZenFone 2 General] robot_head:
If you still have TWRP you should be okay. Russian bear is quite old and not maintained as far as I know I would try something more current like lineage 14.1. it's very stable just download it and put it onto a MicroSD card and Flash it via TWRP and you should be good to go

Hello,

while installing MM with reduced system image on the original shield, I wondered whether it won't be easier to first replicate the partition layout of the new K1 tablet. Namely, 'system' and 'cache' are different.

Anyone tried ?

Do you foresee any problem, like bricking ?

What procedure would you recommend to change the partitions sizes ?

I guess it would have to be done in recovery and fdisk, or will it require a modified blob or boot image ?

Uninstall, soft reset, check that pcmkeyboard.dll doesn't exist.

Install 0.9b (just published), to make sure you're running 0.9b check in the option dialog the version number. (if no version number appear, it's not 0.9b)

Should be fine until 10/01/07
