I have rooted my device which is 184 build, I cant open my Facebook app afterward, any solution for that?
[ZenFone 2 General] DngMX:
Thanks.. :)
[ZenFone 2 General] Giovix92:
Try reinstalling it.
[ZenFone 2 General] sapiterbang:
My device are 134 version firmware. I want to upgrade to 184

I have restored boot.img and recovery.img to stock but my phone stuck in asus logo now with loading icons

Is there any solution to this ?
[ZenFone 2 General] DaqKap:
I am happy to help you:p:p:p
[ZenFone 2 General] 991111:
It only allows me to remove updates, but when I open the app again it requires me to update, crash again after update
[ZenFone 2 General] prosquos:
Try to

- uninstall it with root privileges (using any "System apps remover" app you can find on Playstore or just delete the katana-facebook.apk from "/system/app" folder through any "Root file explorer" app),

- reboot,

- re-install Facebook from PlayStore as normal app.
[ZenFone 2 General] IagoMalta:
I used the option to unlock the bootloader, and it said the bootloader was successfully unlocked, despite a failure message halfway through the process. How do I know the bootloader is really unlocked?
[ZenFone 2 General] kenbo111:
When you boot you will get a error page saying something about not passing verification or something like that before it boots.
[ZenFone 2 General] IagoMalta:
If I get the error, is the bootloader Unlocked, then?
[ZenFone 2 General] Technical:
Yeah. But I'm not sure the "message" comes with unlocking bootloader but rather when installing TWRP :)
[ZenFone 2 General] 991111:
Thanks for the sugestion, but before i can remove my facebook app, the supersu pop up saying an update to binary is needed. I carried on but the update fails. Do i need to update the binary manually?
[ZenFone 2 General] sapiterbang:
Try installing TWRP. If you succeed install it properly then we can say that the bootloader has been unlocked :)
[ZenFone 2 General] IagoMalta:
Alright, mate. Thanks for the reply!

I know this isn't the right thread, but I need some help.

It's the first time I'm flashing a custom ROM in my Zenfone 2. I'm trying to flash CM13. Well, I downloaded de ROM and placed it into my SD card. I theoreticaly unlocked my bootloader and installed TWRP using the tool ins this thread. I flashed de ROM .zip using TWRP, but everytime I try to boot the device, I get into TWRP instead of loading CM13. What am I doing wrong? Can anybody help me or at least guide me to a thread where I can get some help? Thanks, boys,
[ZenFone 2 General] Giovix92:
Try flashing/booting TWRP. If it boots, then it's really unlocked. You can do this in the root process or similar. ;)
[ZenFone 2 General] Technical:
I've experienced this too in the past. We kept locked into a recovery loop.

This is due, as far I know, that you can't flash CM 13 in the MM bootloader you have with this tool.

You need to go back to LP bootloader (maybe flashing the stock LP Rom via Asus Flash Tool), unlock it, install TWRP and then flash CM 13.

Or, you can try CM 14.1.
[ZenFone 2 General] tanglang13:
I've managed to root my device by flashing the root zip with twrp, but now I get a "your device has failed verification" (luckily it didn't fail this city...). What does that mean? can it be fixed?

Thanks in advance
[ZenFone 2 General] samuele94:
No you can't fix it ,it mean : Your bootloader is unlocked. Ignore it and wait 5 seconds and it boot
[ZenFone 2 General] krasCGQ:
Or just tap power button twice.
[ZenFone 2 General] 991111:
Sorry, repeated posting

Yes, it does.

Hi!

Quick question:

I unlocked BL with official tool from 5.0. Actually im on stock 6.0 (Z008D). I wanna try CM14.1.. Quick instructions for unlocking again BL ?

Can I use this tool? Can I flash back Stock MM with BL unlocked by this tool?

Kind regards
[ZenFone 2 General] LeeXmas:
Excuse me, how did you do for upgrade from android5.0 to 6.0? Thanks
[ZenFone 2 General] gREENNNNN:
With official firmware, you can download it from official asus site.
[ZenFone 2 General] LeeXmas:
Thank you.

Can you tell what kind of firmware have downloaded from asus site?
[ZenFone 2 General] demod_oz:

[ZenFone 2 General] fedy:
1- Is it possible to upgrade to magisk 9 from magisk manager after using your tool? Or does it brick the phone?

2- Does the 5B fuction ("Semi-auto root (Magisk+Phh's) compatibile with Pokemon Go!") need preliminary actions from a stock LP?

3- Does 5B-function unlock bootloader?

4- About "7-Return back to stock", doesn't it work on stock LP?

1. I'm getting the following error.

ZE551M~1.MOD\\resources_ze551ml\\adb\\adbinstall.exe is not recognized as an internal or external command, a executable or a batch file.

Is this file corrupt?

2. I'm facing issues while trying to restore to stock. I'm not sure stock here means MM or LP.

Also, restoring only recovery or both recovery and boot, do not allow me to flash OTA placed in internal storage.

This makes me think I'm not on stock really...

I had to flash the latest raw (unfortunately LP, I can't find any MM raw file) twice. First flash does not boot.

Than place the .zip file of the latest OTA for MM (.184) and then upgrade.

There should be an easy way to do so... :p :(

3. What is the difference between modder method of opening the bootloader and the one described here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68542370&postcount=8551. This method is recommend in some ROM flash instructions like CM 14.1 and AICP.

I'm thinking they are not the same as I cannot restore to stock MM and flash OTA. Am I wrong?

4. Last, but the most hard for me, while using modder and TWRP, I cannot restore nandroids. Why? ROM boot and stay forever in Asus logo.
[ZenFone 2 General] orlyyan:
Wipe , caché, wipe all data and install stock recovery the original firmware, update firmware way sideload , very patient for progress of update. Full charge battery
[ZenFone 2 General] Giovix92:
Agree

1) Try exexuting that as admin. It's very strange that error.

2) Very very strange. Restore worked well for me and several other persons.

3) Mine root uses boot.img for place supersu/magisk imgs and symlink several files to /system/xbin/

4) It's a bug of yours backups. Mine works wells, backup&restore works well. Tried on AICP 11/12.1, stock rom + CM13/14.1

[ZenFone 2 General] brunohrbarros:
I got it!

I was missing an important step

"Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install."

Ok guys, currently I'm fixing 3.3 and I'm porting that to 3.4. I'm looking at OpenRecoveryScripts, so if i know the working mode maybe I'll skip 3.4 and i'll pass directly to 4.0. I hope that I can include a fully-auto root+xposed.

About xposed question, now I'll upgrade xposed version and magisk version, but... about magisk... I need Magisk V9 links that are compatible with ZF2 (intel soc). If anyone has them, please pm me the link+author. I'll firstly contact author, because I need to ask if I can put his magisk on my tool.

The roms by GuilhermeXtreme and RussiaNbear had replaced libandroid file with xposed installed. But the hotspot had bugs. Switching on hotspot reboots the phone. The ptoblem is still not fixed.

Do please post if after replacing libandroid file and installing magisk, supersu and xposed whether you can switch on the hotspot or not.

No one is forcing you to root your device, By any means, it is your choice. [emoji6]
[ZenFone 2 General] rummsbumms:
I don't think replacing the libandroid_runtime is a good idea. that was a dirty workaround to bypass the new security features for xposed version <v87 and there was a good reason rovo89 didn't consider it as a fix for xposed v87. (https://github.com/rovo89/XposedBridge/issues/129#issuecomment-261721656ment-261721656

as the xposed v87 bootloops on a ze551ml (compare: http://xdaforums.com/xposed/unofficial-systemless-xposed-t3388268/post69870129#post69870129), you have to use the "oat" patch by shakalaca. it just a small hex patch on the libart.so.
