[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Magister54:
Yes and no, everytime I restart the phone, BT is disabled, I have to enable it, but once enabled it works fine until next reboot.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] kenbo111:
I think that's normal. It did that on pure stock too
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Magister54:
No that's not normal and never happened in 2½ years I have had this phone on LL and MM :p

[MENTION=6810551]BORETS24[/MENTION] About BT problem not connecting at startup, it seems you have an error in init.bt.rc, you are using the keyword "disable" instead of "disabled", please fix it for next release, hoping it will work now
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] kenbo111:
I tried to change it manually myself. I save it. Checked it again to be sure it was changed. Then rebooted. But it didn't work. It gets changed back to disable. Guess you can't just change it.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Magister54:
AFAIK init.rc is in the ramdisk, you have to rebuild the ramdisk and the boot image to fix it, then reflash it.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] sheva_xan:
Hi. Great new update!

Wanted to report a flaw, that has been in the ROM for a while. When I choose to reboot to the recovery, the popup window says "Factory data reset". Is it possible to change it in the future updates? Thanks.

Change History BORETS ROM

2017/11/01

The item of Asus Customize settings of the asus is redone under 7.1.1, the adjustment of the screenshots has been moved there. Page Marker function from 7.1.1 now works

Various point-in-time porting of code from 7.1.1

Moved a few more prog and frameworks with 352 firmware

odexation application is now even faster

Slightly improved compatibility with ARM apps, some of those that did not work, now plow ( IRE etc)

Updated weather

Fixed: layering notifications on the clock in case of disabling of shortcuts on the lock screen

Fixed: the inability to set a shortcut to the settings on the main screen-crashed with an error

Fixed: application locking in the lancher was not working-there was a crash

Other

P.S. Ingress continued to work, did not break

P.P.S. Say one more time as in description. If you not se new ROM on GD clear cache of google drive client or go to with browser

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Magister54:
ok so maybe it's not used, but it's annoying that at every reboot I have to enable BT :(
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] BORETS24:
I have not this problem and never had... I can record the proof if you want.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] vita56:
I have this problem (BT after restart) with every version of your ROM starting this may. But it is the best ROM for my ZF2, than I switch BT manually after every restart. :D
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Magister54:
I trust you ;), I guess I need to do a wipe cache/data to re initialize the BT settings or something, but I'd have to re-install all apps and all :eek:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] BORETS24:
no need noone wipes, I make wipe last time in july 2016:D
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] BORETS24:
damn how reproduce it? For me always BT turn on very quickly after restart and realy work, not simple icon in status bar. May be you froze something, may be greenify, may be kill wakelock which i not recommend never to???
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] vita56:
Oh, no. No froze, no Greenify, no xposed, only Magisk. In most cases dirty flashing, I tried factory reset and still the same.

Edit: I have not changed anything. One version - BT ok, next version (dirty flashing) BT did not switch automatically after restart. I do not remember from witch version exactly.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] BORETS24:
that impossible that randomly work/not work after reboot. If will be problem then must not start with any users:D may be you know reason/setting which broke BT? I made procdure:

1. Reboot device with active bluetooth

2. Wait booting device, appear bt icon

3. turn on bluetooth on other device and search devices

4. Find Zenfone 2 without problem

5. On device click pairing devices

6. Zenfone 2 recieve this message without problem and input code

7. Profit, working
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] vita56:
1) the same as You

2) restart the device, no BT icon, BT is off. I am waiting and after some time I switch on manually BT. From that moment BT working normally.

The problem for me is that before restart BT is on but after restart device, BT is off. Wifi working normally. On, restart, on. Off, restart, off.

BT - on, restart, off. Off, restart, off. :)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Magister54:
Same as vita56, I have only magisk, nothing else, no xposed, no greenify, nothing. At startup BT is disabled, I have to turn it on manually, it's not random, it's always.

I'll try to grab a dmesg and logcat to see if there's something failing.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] BORETS24:
I have magisk 14.3 installed

Hi Borets, thank you again for your GREAT work!

Please update "Last Updated" to 2017-11-01 on first post.

First post is important because is where you have all ROM info and were we all check, from time to time, if there is a new version, so please keep it updated.

Please consider also to include change log bellow "Last Updated" on first post.

Thanks a lot!

My search widget stopped working after the update. After first boot the search bar never showed it just said "Loading..." So I tried removing it and putting it back. Now it's there but there is no response at all when I tap it.

Scratch all of that. It just started working. Very weird

Potential resolution for Bluetooth not starting at boot:

Checking the logcat I saw that BT was enabled but often changed state and at the end was only in BLE mode (bluetooth low energy) just listening to beacon.

After a quick search I found that BT is like wifi and even if it's turned off, it's on, listening, mainly for location, so I investigated this and found something.

What I did to fix it:

- Boot device

- Go into Settings / Location / Press the 3 vertical dots / click on the first menu item / Disable the "Bluetooth listening"

- Go into Settings / Bluetooth / Enable the Bluetooth

- Reboot device

At startup my BT is now enabled and automatically pair with things around :)

Your TWRP is 3.0.2-M1 which does not support encrypted device, you should upgrade to at least 3.0.3-M4...

I cannot upgrade my device because I cannot decrypt my data partition
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] vita56:
Thanks. I confirm, it works for me. My Zenwatch 2 is happy. :)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] kenbo111:
Yes! Seems to have done the trick!

As far as twrp goes, the newer versions don't play well with stock based roms. (I think the Rom will flash but you get errors trying to flash anything else)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Mehrdadtooth:
Hi,last build with twrp 3.0.3 m its Ok?not eror or bug???
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Magister54:
I've used 3.0.3-M4 before, I used 3.1.1 too, no problem
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] kenbo111:
Were you able to flash Magisk / xposed with them?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Magister54:
Magisk is already in the ROM, but yes, using the ze551ML_toolkit this should work anyway. I do not use xposed.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] kenbo111:
That's where the problem lies with the newer twrp. You can't flash other zips without getting errors.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] BORETS24:
hey, twrp 3.0.3 and newer incorrect install SuperSU, you get bootloop because you get system mode install and for repair device you must clear system partition from supersu files or re-install ROM... 3.0.2M1 correctly install supersu in systemless mode. I add new TWRP in ROM only when twrp developers fix bug with incorrect choose supersu install modes.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Magister54:
People still use supersu?!? I think everyone is using Magisk now, aren't they?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] BORETS24:
yes, many people use supersu. can you explain to me what this fantastic in twrp 3.0.3 besides pretty numbers? Ota no need for us. newer is not always better.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Magister54:
3.0.3 support encrypted device, when TWRP starts it asks for my pattern to decrypt my data partition. With 3.0.1 or 3.0.2 this is broken and I cannot decrypt my data partition so I cannot make backup or install things that need access to data. This is very important, I'm not the only one with an encrypted device :cowboy:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] BORETS24:
I think about this but need additional work- remove from any source my superSU 2.79 and saw from it system mode install:D

Fixed:

-Different crash, restart the interface, problems with wallpaper

-weather animation did not work

-wallpapers are now changing and in 4 icon launcher

- an incomprehensible old-school warning window about the volume level in the style of android 1.x - now normal

- it was impossible to enter the settings of the mail account through Settings-accounts-now it is possible (maybe the entries were also corrected in other accounts)

- crash Do Not Disturb when trying to change the time

-other corrections

Updated some programs

I returned the clock with the cities

Returned wallpaper from the extreme firmware of zenfon 3 6.0.1, and then the wallpaper from the zen 4 tortured their jambs (white font can not see)

Still small changes in styles

Change History BORETS ROM

2017/11/08

TWRP 3.1.1 is now installed. Be careful, the old SuperSU 2.79SR3 bricks the device on this version of TWRP, so put now 2.82SR5, which I prepared, see link in first post

The time for installing the firmware has increased two times, but now the firmware of the partition / system is not an image, but a folder, you can easily make changes to the firmware before installing yourself (expanse for fans of cutting software). Be careful, it is undesirable to flash on charging, from overheating the device can be cut out

Fixed: crash of storage and memory settings

Fixed (not sure): Setup wizard exit when trying to install the pattern

Facebook always crashes
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Magister54:
Certainly because you updated it via Google Play. There is a bug in the ROM with Facebook being downloaded for ARM cpu instead of x86 CPU when you upgrade, so it crashes.

You have to uninstall FB, download the right x86 one from apkmirror or something and install it.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] montenell:
You don't have to install it at all. It's built into the ROM. Let it update itself and uncheck auto update from the play store

I want to say about facebook and others ARM app. I do not why but hoodini-interpretator ARM code to x86- working worse than on stock, write that some offset in code but 100% hoodini same as in stock. Google do not know info about hoodini compile on marshmallow etc
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] LightDestory:
Uh, I was about to report sim XD.

Amazing support!

Between, is it possible to insert into the rom a DPI changer feature? (Like selinux permission and storage sd features).

I know that we can change it with the command: wm density [value] but I get some glitches:

- ZenUI Launcher refreshes A LOT. Often waking up phone or just returning to Home the launcher refresh: no icon, no, drawser, no widget only the loading circle for some seconds (but also 1-2 minutes).

- Glitch on image cropping on some apps: What's App, Telegram.

Maybe if you look into it you can find a fix!

Regards,

LightDestory.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] alphaprosper12:
Would this Rom available for auto update?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] BORETS24:
No, forget this buggy command and never use it. it change virtual DPI and overlay it on real DPI... I can continue list of bugs that appear after use it. also you get bugs with some keyboards(you will see few giant letters on fullscreen and area keyboard will be out of range display) etc. For correct DPI change need to change real DPI (ro.sf.lcd_density) with scripts, for example. I can try add few scripts with some values(403, 380, for example), but will be reboot required
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] LightDestory:
Reboots are nothing compared to the glitches!
