CM 13, so Marshmallow.

Now the screen won't even turn on. This is ****ed.

EDIT: No screen at all. Nothing works. In boot cycle. Sending it to Asus and hopefully they fix this and send me it back. I'm never unlocking the bootloader or rooting, or doing anything to a phone ever ****ing again. This should not be that hard to do.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yakub234go:
If u can boot cm then u can install recovery using adb

Download the latest recovery image file (.img) depending on which bootloader u have (MM/L).

Place it in the root of your /sdcard folder and rename it to twrp.img.

Run the following commands via adb shell or a terminal emulator app:

su

dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/by-name/recovery

Wow and wow and more wow !:eek:

1)What firmware did you have on when you first used the modder ..........?

2)You can use the unbrick procedure in my signature below !
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sanmore:
First-> don't painic! Don't just! Second try to flash a raw Asus firmware , if it fails, check all the drivers and if possible reinstall them , and finally have some patience , don't pull cables in the middle ,this may permanently brick ur phone.

If everything fails I suugest you to shoot a PM to "@jrior001"
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timbernot:
Problem is ..

The modder was built for stock MM

CM13 MM which is used via recovery / bootloader and root built for LP.

I think unbrick threads will help .

If splashscreen can be flashed in fastboot for LP after xfstk success and in temp bootloader 0094 1069 you maybe able to restore this

or sukhwants method :)
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roach9:
Okay, I'm back at it today, more calm than yesterday.

I have managed to unbrick it and now it's at the temporary bootloader. I am going to load the .raw file (WW_ZE551ML_2.20.40.139_sal358.vn.raw) via Asus FlashTool which is recommended.

After that, how do I proceed to getting CM13 and TWRP on my device?

I'm patient today. Help would be GREATLY appreciated.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timbernot:
Good news

Firstly after set up , you must update stock ASUS LP firmware too.

Did you ever unlock bootloader via ASUS app in LP ?

If you didn't you maybe get update OTAs.

If not then place at WW-blah bla .184 if 551 firmware on internal memory.

Restart phone .

Update.

Then follow instruction in CM 13 Thread for installation

But in all honesty , I would update to stock MM and use the modder properly this time ;)
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roach9:
Okay...

So should I use modder first, in the temporary bootloader?

I don't want to screw this up, so if you can give me a really straight forward direction.... I would <3 you forever.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timbernot:
No

You flash raw for LP

SET IT UP WHEN FINISHED.

Then read my last reply

Goodnight ;)
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roach9:
How exactly do I update to stock MM though?

EDIT: Okay, the problem I'm having is that ASUS Flash Tool sees my phone, but when I click "Start" to flash the .raw file, nothing happens, it just remains connected to the phone, but nothing...

Why would this be?

Okay - plan is to now use Fastboot to install my OS. I'm downloading:

UL-Z00A-WW-2.20.40.139-user.zip from Asus.

I will pull out the system, bin, boot, droidimage files and follow the instructions to install. I will run:

fastboot flash splashimage splashimage.img

fastboot fastboot flash droidboot.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot reboot

Hopefully that does it?

EDIT 2: I can't find the system.img file? Where do I get this?

I'm running CM13 and I have recovery 3.0.2.0 installed.

Is there anyway to properly update my bootloader is MM and my recovery to 3.0.2-M1? Something that won't destroy my phone?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toxin715:
was trying to do a systemless root to use android pay and unrooted my device from the SU app and selected to keep my custom recovery, tried to go into recovery and gave me the stock recovery. Used fastboot to reinstall twrp but after reboot it reverts back to stock, what am i doing wrong.

stock 7.0
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blueyes:
Look for a system file called recovery from boot.p (boot.p). Might be your culprit. It's a file , if I recall correctly, that on initial boot overwrites twrp. Puts you back on stock.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ludolf71:
You don't need the twrp installed. Just boot to the bootloader and type: fastboot boot twrp-filename.img from your command prompt on your pc.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dratsablive:
In order to make sure that custom recovery overwrites twrp, when you have finished flashing twrp, reboot into bootloader immediately. Then flash latest SuperSU. This modifies boot.img so it doesn't overwrite twrp.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toxin715:
so ill fastboot install twrp then i will not reboot into system because if i do the recovery will be overwriten with the old stock recovery. Trying to use a systemless root with magisk
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toxin715:
where is the file located, should i replace that file or just delete it. Thank you
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dratsablive:
No no no. Try like I mentioned. Flash TWRP then reboot recovery immediately. Then flash SU. This will prevent TWRP from being overwritten
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toxin715:
OK will do, well give results soon
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toxin715:
ok systemless root with magisk works fine along with twrp sticking now. Things to know is when twrp is booting it still says unable to mount system but everything works fine if that matters. Thank you

I finally got my new OP3 but I've noticed some color shifting when tilting the phone. Is this normal? Also I need help with something else. I want to completely remove lockscreen wallpaper on oxygen OS, so that it shows my home screen wallpaper. I'm rooted and I've tried deleting the keyguard wallpaper files, but all it does is show me a black screen unlike on the OP2. Can someone help?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] nikhil.agrawal:
1) there is no colour shifting on my op3, do you have a tempered screen guard on your phone?

2) when on oxygen os launcher long press on empty area of your home screen and select the lock screen wallpaper from there. its annoying that everytime you have to switch to oneplus launcher to change lockscreen wallpaper.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] skyknife93:
Isn't it possible to straight up get rid of it? I remember doing it on the OP2. By uninstalling the keyguard wallpaper file in system/users. But it keeps coming back after a black screen... And about the color balance, it only appears if I tilt my phone, which I read is a common problem with AMOLED screens all over. Can you confirm?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] nikhil.agrawal:
The only way is to set the same wallpapers for homescreen and lockscreen, there is no way to get rid of the wallpaper so you'll have to do it manually.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] skyknife93:
I've updated my reply a bit bro. And one final thing, I've noticed a slight lag after rooting it, is that normal too?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] nikhil.agrawal:
I'm not seeing any colour issue when i tilt my phone also i dont have any lag on my phone. I'm on stock rom and kernel. I clean flashed the signed rom via twrp and flashed supersu after it. I didnt go through the initial setup process.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] skyknife93:
Ok. I'll give that a try and report back... Thanks for you prompt response. Do you suggest I request a replacement if the issue persists?

Certainly I wish that the g4 connect to the 5 GHz network

Any suggestions?

Hello, i have just upgraded from an LG G3 to a zenfone 2 and I am not pleased with the sound quality.

I didnt like my g3's sound at first but with an app called g3 volume booster (playstore) and v4x I managed to make it sound better than an iPhone.

I tried v4x on my zf2 but after hours trying to make it sound good I gave up.

I find it low and really blank at low ends and mids, not crisp or full bodied enough.

V4X playback boost only works on tracks that are not 0dB, leveling them up.

Has anynody got any tips to make the sound of this phone better with software? Is the dac in this phone beyond repair?

I want to increase volume too, the way the app on lg g3 worked was by editing some values in some system file, is it possible manually in the zenfone 2?

I appreciate if anybody can help me, music is a big deal for me, and despite this, this phone is amazing.

Thanks

[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] garymachete:
So I went to T-Mobile to return my note 7 today. The guy at first tried to get around telling me I could exchange it for any of their phones in store, he really just wanted to take my note 7 and leave me with nothing.

I informed him of my knowledge of my options, and we decided on swapping it out for an s7 edge that would be able to trade right back in for a new note 7 on arrival.

(I am a huge fan of the note 7. But I find myself being to anxious about it exploding on me. I'm under the general impression that they tend to explode more often if not exclusively when charging. So I monitor it when it charges. My device is an SDI device that was manufactured in China).

The rep informed me that he would be crediting back the $150 down I put on the phone (I'm on the original jump program) and that I would have to pay in store $74 for the taxes of the s7 edge. Wtf? I told him that I will not be paying the $74, and that they can credit me back $80 instead of $150 at best. He said that it wont work that way.

I'm not hard up for money, but I am hard up for good honest service. I refused to be out $224 for 8-10 days because I got duped into buying a grenade phone.

Long story short, the rep basically told me that's the only option. I told him that it was ludicrous and that I plan on switching service providers and he stated that his friend works at ATT and that they have the same policy and that I was unhappy I should switch to another company.

So, after all the bs I said whatever, I really have no options. So I took the s7 edge and paid the additional $74 for a phone I didn't want.

I left and called the tmobile note 7 recall hotline. The woman I spoke with was great. She couldn't believe the experience I just had. She credited my phone bill the $74 dollars they charged me for the s7 edge and she directed me to go back into the store and get my note 7 back and I could deal with her thru the mailer program tmobile has set up cuz I guess they can't enforce in store policies. Wtffff

So I go back in. Tell them what she told me. They are like wtf. And I'm like I'm not leaving without my note 7. The note had already been inventoried as a go back to manufacturer. So they said I can't have it. I told them I didnt care and that they need to figure out a way to get my exploding phone back to me. I ended up recalling the hotline and my call got escalated to some corporate manager and she informed the store to do whatever they could to get me my note 7.

So they ended up telling me that they were going to call the note 7 a loss in their inventory. The note 7 will not exist in my account. It's like I never had it they said. Wtf. It has a fat sticker now on the back of it calling it voided merchandise lol! They took the s7 edge back and credited my card the $74 back. And the guy made a sly comment about how I should sign a waiver that if the phone burns up that tmobile is not responsible. Yea right dude.

Yea. I get it. I should turn the phone in. It might burn me up in the middle of the night. I tried. And they tried to scam me. No way. Not cool. Figure your s*** out tmobile.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] DJ ELITE:
First of all, you do have the right to freedom of speech (aka your opinion).

Now... no one duped you into purchasing the Note7. T-Mobile had no idea of the faulty battery.

No one was trying to rip you off. They have T-Mobile policies and now they're dealing with Samsung's recall policy as well.

You honestly think you spoke to a "corporate" manager? LMAO! So, you think corporate managers answer phones from people like you? Good one.

You claim to not be hard up for cash, however, you're tripping on the financial side of how the transaction is going down. Well, you could've simply waited, but nope. You wanted to be "that dude."

So you make a big fuss by being "that dude" and got your way, sort of. Now you got a big sticker on your Note7.

You treated a sales associate badly who was simply doing his job, had a trained customer advocate tell you what you want to hear... cuz it's her job and then a call center supervisor tell the store to just do whatever it takes to get you out of the store.

If that's your idea of "winning" or "getting one over corporate America" you're lying to yourself.

That's my freedom of speech.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] garymachete:
Why would I want to pay $74 for a device I never wanted to buy? It's not about $, it's about tmobile along with Samsung doing the right thing. Why should I - the consumer - be further inconvenienced by having to pull out any more money whatsoever for a situation I shouldn't be in?

The sticker is removable btw.

I have not "won" nor did I state I "won" in any matter. Anybody who had purchased the note 7 has officially lost. I was just sharing an Interesting experience that I had.

Thank you for expressing your opinion, I hope you feel heard.

No offense but I work for Toyota and take for Instance the air bag recall that's been going on that is a safety recall and if parts are not available you will get a loaner vehicle free of charge to drive till your replacement parts are available no questions asked and no rudeness from the service advisor. So how is this any different? You should get a loaner phone with no hassle and no rudeness from the sales associate behind the counter..
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] douger1957:
It'd be nice to get a straight answer.

Sunday I went to a T-Mobile store to inquire about a loaner. I was told to call customer service, which I did. They told me it should have been handled at the store, but they ordered a loaner for me.

What I haven't yet received is the acknowledgement email I was told I'd get.

I work for a GM dealership and when the key/lock cylinder recall came down, there was confusion as to what our responsibilities were. Some customers wouldn't wait for parts availability and insisted on a loaner car. Finding rentals was rather difficult during that time period.

They didnt order it for you. I had the same thing happen. Sunday I was told i'd receive an email or message with tracking. Yesterday I called to confirm and was told nothing was ordered so I contacted t-mobile on twitter and Kelsey helped me. They found a corporate store near me where I picked up the loaner s 7 edge yesterday. At first they wanted me to pay taxes which I refused so they just put it down as a jump on demand. It store it went down as a jump on demand but Kelsey made the account noted that it was a loaner and once the note 7 comes in I will be contacted. Contact t force on twitter for help.

---------- Post added at 01:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:33 PM ----------

The problem is no one is on the same page. Samsung tells you one thing, T-mobile tells you one thing, and each individual store tells you something else. Over the phone I was told I had to go the store where I bought my screen protector for a refund. I go to the store and they tell me I have to go to a corporate store. I go to corporate and they dont know what I am talking about. I got a bill credit via t force on twitter. It should be easy to get a refund and loaner phone/exchange phone at any T-mobile store or online but in this case it seems like the most people have no idea what they are doing. Hell when I originally called sunday I had to read to the service agent T-mobiles own new policy regarding loaner phones due to the Note 7 issues. He at first told me I was past 14 day exchange policy. This is a serious issue and more phone keep exploding by the day. Yes it seems like there is a lackadaisical attitude when dealing with returning/exchanging.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] mgbotoe:
Just because someone does not want to be turn sideways by associate who do not know what they are talking, does not mean someone is hard for money. The way he acted no way implied financial circumstance is a factor in play. I have spoken with multiple associates in stores as well as reps who said you do not pay the taxes upfront. If I go into the store and someone says I do and tells me to go ELSEWHERE if I do not like their business, it WILL become a problem.

Sorry OP that you went through that...honestly right now no one knows their left foot from their right at Tmobile on how to deal with Note 7...some would even try to convince you to keep it and have it stored away. The associates are as clueless as they come and the tmobile store I went to I did not even stick around to make the exchange...they were loud obnoxious and were busy correcting everything I say even if I wasn't talking to the associate across the room...if I say recall he would run down and come and correct me. If I ask question about the water resistance he would dive across the store to come and put his opinion...and at some point were treating me like I do not know wtf i was talking about as far as the handling of the note 7 from both samsung and tmobile. Told them bye
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] JaguarXT:
This happens with all carriers. The best way is to return the device in full. This way you get your tax money up front. Then purchase the new device. Otherwise the carrier will want to hold on the tax from the old device to return to you in later time. While taking tax for the new device. I ran this with with AT&T, Verizon, Sprint and T-Mobile.

I am going to wait for the new "S" (Safe) version of Galaxy Note 7 and do even exchange. No tax issues with that. And yes, the China T-Mobile version that I have charges (even fast charge) very cool with touch. So I feel safe to wait for the "S" (Safe) version of Note 7 before returning my current Note 7.
