Oh man, better put your reading hat on and Google your ass off! Lol! I have a txt on my work computer with a tutorial on how to flash this rom, but, about 1.14, do we need to update for this CM13? Is it relevant?
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] FedeHolyGhost:
You need to be on 1.14 to unlock bootloader and nvm already found a way, i had to go back to stock since i was on slim rom.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] mad.nexus:
Yeah I forgot about that, the bootloader and what not, anyway:

1- Unlock Bootloader with oficial method from ASUS.

2- Enable the Dev Options and enable usb depuration.

3- Download the zip file AndroidSDKslim https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9a0ULZKQLQmS2ZNZDNtS3gzMFk/view

4- Extract AndroidSDKslim and copy twrp-3.0.0-0-Z00T.img to folder

5- Within the adb folder , run the following command prompt type in sequence :

adb devices

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.0-0-Z00T.img

fastboot reboot -recovery

6- Wait for the device restart and entered the recovery .

7- No need to wipe , just restart and is ready .

8- Flash the Actual rom: http://www.cmxlog.com/13/Z00T/

Someone is facing problems in 03-15 build with CM Camera? I'm on a clean flash, at first everything works but after I install my apps, Camera FC saying "Gallery has stopped". Other camera apps are working good, I can generate logcat but I want to know if someone else is facing and it's a known bug
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] mad.nexus:
I strangely don't have CM Camera... :| I use google camera from the gapps I've installed...
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] caudisio:
I did it. I use the stock recovery, then flash the official firmware from ASUS page, with "flash zip from sd card". I don't have right now the file but you can get it from Google stock recovery. The same way that you installed the twrp use for instal this image, then reboot and flash zip file.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] cristianpark:
The issue with the app was with Nova, it puts an icon to 3dGallery Camera instead of the camera that comes with CM (org.cyanogenmod.snap). Everything is working just fine here :D
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] sidvishus9:
Thanks to Luk and Luca.

How is everyone's speakerphone volume? To me, it seems a little bit on the low side, but I might be in the minority.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] mad.nexus:
I do use Nova launcher, still can't find CM Camera though... Not that I need it, just curious... :|

[MENTION=5075128]LuK1337[/MENTION]

I appreciate all the hard work and the rom is great. But right now I am having a problem, I was able to flash 3/15 build for my ZD551KL at first attempt and I was able to boot to CM13 flawlessly. After that I downloaded an ARM64 android 6.0 full gapps package in TWRP. Then after installing it via TWRP, I was no longer able to boot to CM, it is stuck on the CyanogenMod bootup screen and never runs past that.

So I realized what I did was wrong, I should have installed gapps at the same time with CM. I loaded back to TWRP, did a format data and wiped everything and reinstalled the same 3/15 build. Now I am still stuck with the CM logo and it does not run past that. Is there really anything that I should do before flashing CM? I am using TWRP 3.0.0-0-Z00T.img btw.

Just a precaution, is my device bricked? Can I just go back to the previous asus zenfone firmware? Before I flashed CM13, I kept a complete backup of 1.15 firmware original via TWRP backup tool. I am trying to know if restoring this backup is recommended.

Thanks!
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] LuK1337:
Join #titandev @ freenode, I might be able to help you out.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] pjl3dm:
Thanks Luk1137! Very helpful and quick developer, even better than asus support lol

Guys the problem that I had was very simple but not obvious, I was using usb-otg to install CM. And currently there is bad support for usb-otg from ASUS (made the zip corrupt upon installation).

So here is what I did:

1) Did a complete wipe (advanced wipe) in TWRP and wiped every partition including system,data and internal storage (except for microsd of course)

2) Copied the CM build to an sd card and installed CM from there instead.

I had no more errors and everything booted! :)
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] xyril25:
There were five folders, and i already downloaded individually the recovery.img, boot.img, and kernel.zip, i cant find the file of droidboot.img. Or should I have to download all the 5 folders? Thanks!
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] xyril25:
are the images that you have flashed recovery.img and boot.img? and droidboot.img? can't find the file of droidboot.img of zenfone selfie :(
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] FedeHolyGhost:
If you are in stock rom you just need to download the file and put it anywhere on the phone's memory, it will detect the file and will update once you turn it on.

Anyways here are all the firmwares and files you need if anything goes wrong: https://mega.nz/#F!Ao1RjT7D!hQ5x60r02WveB9-Hl32B4g!JssikLhJ

The " slim " versions are debloated and rooted.

---------- Post added at 03:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:22 AM ----------

A friendly reminder, do not try flashing SU. I also get stuck in bootloop and if you try to download it just won't update binaries. I hope they can fix this issue in the future, it is much better than stock root.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] LuK1337:
Haven't tested but this should be fine.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] pedrazadixon:
Any site for follow only the changelog?
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] LuK1337:
Not really.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] helandortega:
I have few questions before trying out this ROM.

BTW, I have an Asus ZenFone Selfie. And I also have a ZenFone 2 which also runs on CM13 Unofficial so I have a little idea how this OS works.

1. Is Z00T TWRP and Build is the one that's compatible with my Asus ZenFone Selfie? (ZD551KL)

2. Does this come pre-rooted? (Have an option to trigger root access on the developer options?)

3. How about the Asus PixelMaster Camera? Where we can grab the stock camera app?

4. This is a nightly build right? :)

Thank you very much for this ROM!
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] LuK1337:
1. Yes

2. Yes, just enable it in developer options

3. Just copy the .apk from stock rom, it'll probably work

4. Unofficial nightly to be exact
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] helandortega:
Got it! Will post an update later after I've successfully flashed this on my ZenFone Selfie :)

Thanks a lot for bringing up this ROM to us :)
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] carnby24:
Hi, okay got it working, but wifi is not working.

It keeps searching and searching. Alreay reboot.

by the way, saw a release today for cm13.0, any changelog for that?
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] SoNic67:
With luk1337's help, I got it working. Used today's release. My WiFi and LTE is working fine.

nope still not working

something to do with the modem files i think
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] Ill Named:
Just curious, can we dirty flash 21 over 20? Or do we have to do a full wipe each time?

Thanks BTW, I've had this Z00T since it was launched practically and have been dealing with the crazy amount of "zen" sh!t that asus jams in it. I was actually looking at buying a new device that is more supported in the community until today. Much appreciated.

Edit: Just dirty flashed and all seems well.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] sensi277:
I'm getting a problem when trying to flash Gapps in the latest version of the ROM. When trying to install ARM64/6.0/Stock GApps, it says "This Open GApps package cannot be installed on this device's architecture. Please download the correct version for your device: armeabi-v7a,armeabi".

I think skipping the architecture check in the install script would fix this, but I'm not sure.

EDIT: I've just now realized that this is probably a problem with TWRP. Does this mean that I can bypass the architecture check without any negative repercussions?
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] helandortega:
Succesfully flashed CM 13 for my ZenFone Selfie.

Great ROM and quite stable.

BUT, I can't install PixelMaster Camera. Parse Error. I also tried to flash zip file but also won't work.

Does anyone know how to install ASUS Stock Camera on this?

is this the guide for reverting back the stock ROM? Thanks! i translate the site in english just to understand.:good:
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] FedeHolyGhost:
Once you flash custom rom you have custom recovery. With custom recovery you can just flash the zip of the stock rom to go back, you dont need any guides.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] Ilxaot:
I've been having serious battery drain in the past few builds with Bluetooth supposedly. I have an Android Wear watch, but nothing's out of the ordinary and it never did this before. Is there something wrong with Bluetooth on the ROM by chance?
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] sensi277:
I've had excessive battery drain with Bluetooth ever since I first installed this ROM. It's not new, and it doesn't look like that bug will be resolved any time soon.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] xyril25:
I Already tried many times but it always says that I must install compatible SKU bla bla bla. :(
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] SoNic67:
You need to flash the stock recovery first, that one can do the stock ROM.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] mad.nexus:
Hey! Use this one, it's much better! ;) LOL!

This tutorial is just for flashing cyanogenmod yow :P
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] pjl3dm:
Hi Luk1337,

There seems to be a problem with video recording, so far I have tried 3 apps and none of them worked in video recording properly.

1) Google camera (march 10 version, latest), switching to Video mode crashes the app

2) ASUS Pixelmaster Camera (latest version) - it records a video but then after you stop recording the video doesnt get saved anywhere (internal storage size remains same)

3) Cyanogenmod Camera (default that came from rom) - when I click record button it immediately stops, nothing can prevent this.

Any ideas? I am using 3/17 build, thanks!
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] LuK1337:
Thanks for letting me know. I'll take a look at that later.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] mad.nexus:
With me it doesn't crash but instead, doesn't save the file! (Google Camera).

On other apps, record button simply doesn't work...

When I do manage to "record" it's just a white thumbnail saying it's corrupted...
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] SoNic67:
Asus released another FW on 2016/03/11, I wonder of they changed something to the radio, and if is needed to add it to the CM:

[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] SoNic67:
^ You have an weird face, the phone it's like "is this a person?" :D

Joking aside, it's useless feature anyway, it will unlock even with a photo of you. If you add "check for liveliness" (blink to unlock), it becomes super annoying.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Original Android Development] sensi277:
Yes, that's normal.

I've been seeing terrible GPU/gaming performance on this ROM. I went back to stock to see if it was any better, and it is vastly better. Games that would barely run at 25FPS on low graphics presets on CM13 now run at 60FPS+ on high graphics presets with stock ROM. I would estimate that the stock ROM performs 2-3x better in 3D gaming.

[MENTION=5075128]LuK1337[/MENTION], [MENTION=5778309]luca020400[/MENTION], or any other developer that reads this, please fix the abysmal 3D graphics performance with the ZE551KL model. It's been an issue since the ROM launched. Formal bug report below:

What is your--
Phone model (ZE551KL, ZD551KL, ZE601KL): ZE551KL
CM version: 13
CM Download url: http://xdaforums.com/zenfone-2-laser/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-13-0-t3317515
Gapps version: March 17 release.

Did you--
wipe: Yes.
restore with titanium backup: Yes.
reboot after having the issue: Yes.

Are you using--
a task killer: No.
a non-stock kernel: No.
CMSettings/Performance settings (other than stock): No.
other modifications: None.

Provide any additional information (observations/frequency of problem/last
version it worked on): Graphical/3D performance is absolutely terrible on my
model, about 1/3 the performance of stock.

Realized I downloaded the cyanogen recovery file and flashed it to my boot partition. I fixed that by restoring my phone but now I don't seem to have any storage. Thought it was just my card so I formatted it but now realize it's my system. Everything works but I cannot download anything. Tried to download the correct cyanogen file and it keeps telling me the default path cannot be found. Any suggestions on fixing this?

Plugged the phone into my computer and all that comes up is the internal storage but there's nothing inside. Somehow it wiped everything but I can see everything when I'm in twrp recovery. I'm not sure what I did.

Three random reboots I've witnessed in past 48 hours, most recent moments ago. Nothing in /sys/fs/pstore to upload (just empty annotate-ramloops).

Z00TD latest 0320 nightly.

First 2 reboots might have been signal related but I'm currently sitting at -95dBm LTE coverage + WiFi so that isn't really an issue right now.
