[ZenFone 2 Android Development] LSS4181:
WARNING: The font typeface check still persists. Also, not all fonts are safe.

It seems the font typeface check introduced since ICS (4.0) still persists. GB (2.3) and before don't care about the typeface parameters, so any font found online would work there, but is no longer the case since ICS.

And even after this many years, some font designers and packagers are not aware of the fact that the font's typeface (especially weight) MUST match. For example, you can only use a Bold font to replace Roboto-Bold, and will cause bootloop if you replace it with a Regular or Light font.

AND HERE COMES THE TRAP: Some font designers set the wrong typeface parameters. For example, they leave it Regular for a Bold font, or so far as not caring it at all (all the fonts use the same typeface such as Regular, although the font names say otherwise). This happens even among fonts listed in Google Fonts (especially, if you use the TypeFace app from Play Store). Font packs containing mismatched typefaces will apply and work, but will cause your phone to bootloop after reboot and the only ways to restore it is to flash the recovery zip generated by Substratum, or do a dirty/clean reflash of your custom ROM. I had this experience when trying to apply Averia Serif using the TypeFace app, which caused a bootloop after reboot, and then I realized that the original font files had mismatched typeface parameters that when I originally replaced the font on a 4.x device, I had to modify some parameters in the font file with an editor before doing so, in order to avoid bootloops.

In the end, if you want to change to your favorite font, before doing so, use a font editor to inspect the typeface parameters, and compare that with the font you're replacing (Roboto). If there are incorrect values, correct it to match that of the Roboto so as to minimize the possibility of bootloops.

Plus, you can check about this thread. It contains flashable font packages that works without bootloop, but just in case, always keep a nandroid backup. NOTE: You need to replace the update-binary with a x86 one, preferrably from stock update.zip file, or it'll report error 255.

Hey, it's been a long time since i switched to this rom and i haven't updated it yet. It has Holo N custom kernel. Can someone remind me how to update this rom with an updated Holo N included?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] grorg:
You should download the latest rom, holo n and gapps. Then flash the rom (with/*out) wipes, flash holo and gapps.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] LeinnarC:
Oh it's that simple lmao. Thanks I was just worried I forget some kind of step like removing holo n first before updating. I don't want to go through the process if I accidentally bricked my phone cause I don't have the time for it right now. Thanks again fella :D

Many thanks to your help. I've tried:

Without luck.

I also tested (from scratch) adding also this:

git clone https://github.com/jrior001/android_kernel_asus_moorefield
git clone https://github.com/jrior001/android_device_asus_mofd-common

Finally, adding

git clone https://github.com/LineageOS/android_device_asus_Z00A

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] lmonge87:
Hello,

I was on this rom and updating Magisk to version 13 completely bricked my phone (no display, no power, no USB logo, just some vibration here and there).

This happened to me before and I was able to unbrick my phone using one of the famous guides (isoc, xfstk, etc). However this time I have not had any luck doing so and the I always get stuck at the "continuing to os, attempting to reconnect" part.

After some reading I consider this might be related to the fact that I am using firmware files that are not compatible with android 7 (dnx, ifwi, droidboot).

My question therefore is: Is there any chance to get the proper files, extract them from the ROM somehow, or, does anybody have those and is able to share them with me?

Thanks in advance.

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] zonexo:
Hi, I previously had a rough trip with flashing RR.

I was on stock LP. Then I upgraded to stock MM using OTA. But there was problem so I downgraded back to stock LP. Then I followed the instruction to unlock bootloader, flash Magisk (13 beta) etc. I got into boot loop and then I did quite a lot of stuff, eventually get Android 7 RR 5.8.3 to work. However, there was quite a bit of problems: playstore keep crashing (I re-flash again, but problem re-appear), not able to switch between wifi / 4g etc.

I then tried LineageOS. It was fine at 1st but the same problem appear again.

Did I make some mistakes in my steps? Or has it got to do with the firmware, ifw etc?

Thinking of flashing again. Hope someone can give some advice. Thanks!

I Tried Lineage OS Same happened. 1st Error 7 then after solving that can't flash to system

I have tried going back to stock recovery and stock ROM and doing this all over again.

I Have Seen many videos no one gets Error 7 while flashing the same ROMs

Hi Guys,

Anyone care to share the best link for the steps in rooting the phone z00a? I seem to find endless links of ways to root z00a and it shows different steps ( confusing which is which), coming from marshmallow latest stock update. My dilemma is, whenever i enter to the bootloader, and choose recovery, it would just give me a ""no command". I apologize, but this is really my first time to root an asus phone and i'm a bit torn between the steps that are provided around the net.

My goal is for me to be able to install custom roms in the future.

I hope someone don't mind a helping hand.
