The question is does govtuner help you . My zenfone is more than 2 years old and i get 3 hours SOT which i consider a pretty decent battery life for a old phone . What is your sot

---------- Post added at 01:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 PM ----------

Well i would like to answer you .

1:custom rom is the one that aims to bring in more performance and decent features so yes you will get all the nougat features plus rr team has its own customization so inshort if you never used any highly customized rom then you would never go back to stock after using this current rom .

2:For installing the rom you need unlocked bootloader , custom recovery installed . (Search here on xda you will get all the tools ).

3:yes of course you can revert to stock anytime .(again take help of Google search and and the awesome xda search )

Hope you are satisfied .

twrp thread

bootloader tool
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] rahulkpr65:
Thanks you, just one more thing, what should be the sequence of steps in which i should proceed.
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] Boomshiva:
Unlock the bootloader

Flash the twrp recovery

Boot into twrp

Take a nadroid backup (store in sd card ) , just in case of anything goes wrong you can restore ;)

Wipe system , data , cache/dalvik

Since its your first time i would recommend you to format data after the above step :D ( this will delete all your data and files )

Reboot into recovery again .

Flash the rr rom

Flash the uninstaller

Flash the gapps and other addons if any

Flash the root addon

Reboot .

Check my above few post for uninstaller and root tool links .

Visit here for gapps

Get x86>7.1>pico/Nano gapps .

Hey [MENTION=8005486]juyel92[/MENTION].. how the govtuner that posted by [MENTION=8126723]pavantp[/MENTION].. is that doing great for the battery backup?
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] agantoim:
i was following Boomshiva method, unfortunately when i flashing gapps my phone always suddenly turn off before it done.. :(

so, i following juyel92, and all works... :o i don't know which step i missed when installing this room for the first time... :confused:

and if you want to upgrade and want to show the root access, try 2 method above... ;)

thanks for both of Boomshiva and juyel92 ;)
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] Boomshiva:
Yeah sometime that happens when my battery level is between 30 -50% and charger is plugged in i too face the shutdown of my device from twrp . So i just unplug the charger and Everything back to normal don't know what's cause the shutdown :p . Even when device gets heated it happens with me .
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] juyel92:
Currently I'm testing this GovTuner. I will share my result tomorrow.

( But till now GovTuner is doing great job. Phone is not heating up, it become more responsive, also battery backup became great. I have to use this GovTuner whole night,then only I will be more sure about battery backup )

Updated:

I used this GovTuner whole night and the result is pretty impressive. I think this is best way to get more battery backup. You guys can also try and share your results here.
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] maydhikaps:
[MENTION=8005486]juyel92[/MENTION] whoa that's nice.. how to flash the govtuner safely..?
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] agantoim:
my battery was around 90, and when that happen i was at charging position, so i decide unplug it, but the device still suddenly off again.

well maybe because that heat problem. :D
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] juyel92:
It will obviously work. As, that method which I have told you is the standard method.

Anyway, I'm glad to hear that it worked for you :)

---------- Post added at 03:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:34 PM ----------

1. First Download the GovTuner (Click Here to download GovTuner) (Download the latest version which is GovTuner 3.8.zip)

2. Now boot into TWRP recovery.

3. Flash this GovTuner.

4. Reboot system.

5. After rebooting, open Terminal Emulator and type the following code-

a).

su

and hit enter (this will ask you for root permission, just grant it ok. After granting root permission type

b).

govtuner

and again hit enter. (Just don't close the terminal until the process is done)

GovTuner will start it's process and then it will ask you for profile to choose (There are three profiles, 1. Battery, 2. Balance, 3. Performance)

Type 1 (which is the battery profile, as we want more battery backup) in Terminal app and hit enter.

Again you will see some process starts, when the process ends then in bottom last you will see Govtuner = Active.

That's it, now GovTuner is activated in your device.

After GovTuner is activated, now Type e and hit enter (e is for exit).

After the above process is completed, now you can close the terminal emulator app.

If you still don't understand how to use it then there is a youtube video link available in original thread.

Best ROM but how to fix double tap wakeup on this rom
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] kihope12:
Hello here, i need bit help, just say if is it normal for this rom, if not i will atach ligcat or i will re-flash it

- on 2nd sim i have only 2g (no matter if i set 3g as prefer) in 1st slot it works fine

- on 2nd sim slot sometimes lost signal, restart or re-inster simcard helps

- my phone sometimes do soft reboot.
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] juyel92:
"Double Tap to Wakeup" is working fine in this ROM.

What problem are you facing? Can you please explain it in more detail ?
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] Boomshiva:
About sim issue yes you are right . The fix is to set 1 sim to 2g and other to 3g . So if you wanna use 2nd sim slot in 3g mode then you need to use 1st sim slot sim in 2g mode and vice versa .

About soft reboot i cannot say anything .
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] kihope12:
Thanks for describe, it should be writed in "bugs:".
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] solifice:
It is not working at all
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] Arakosx:

Well i think the proximity sensor bug has been fixed in this new build . Thanks for the fix .
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] solifice:

[Zenfone 5 Android Development] ryanjms07:
have you tried, the phone will reboot on call when D2w activated?
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] zenhck:
Weird but working fine for me to use 3g on 2nd sim slot. But I'm not using the latest build. I'm using RR 5.8.1 build 20170208
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] juyel92:
These things never happened to me.... D2w is activated in my phone and I don't get any issue regarding reboot on call after activating d2w.

---------- Post added at 10:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 AM ----------

I'm not facing any issues like you. Everything is working properly.

Try to re-flash this ROM. Maybe your problem will get solved after re-flashing the ROM.
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] Boomshiva:
I always make. VoIP calls so cannot confirm the rebooting issue due to long phone calls made through phone dialer .
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] solifice:
I reflashed the ROM again but not solved

The google assistant

But that's not a huge problem thanks

God must bless developer of the rom
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] jandia7381:
+1 me too. All working great on my T00F running latest build

*i'm just dirty flash latest update from the older build & for sure i wipe dalvic cache to complete the mission :cool:
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] juyel92:
If dirty flashing the ROM doesn't help you then try clean install of the ROM.
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] solifice:
Man I tried clean flashing by not solved
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] juyel92:
Proximity sensor bug is still not fixed.

Proximity sensor stays always on after the screen is unlocked or when the device is locked. Only reboot can help this. Hope that this bug will be get fixed in the future update.
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] FascistDuc:
my zenfone 5 is 1 year 5 months old and now I usually have 2 hours on-screen time, from 100% to around 25% battery (then I'll charge it). when I first flashed this Nougat ROM I had pretty impressive battery life, about 3 hours on-screen time like you but it seems to reduce to normal now. do you have any tips to last the battery life longer? I often charge whenever I don't use it. I do charge overnight​ almost every day
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] agantoim:
I just can help problem 1 maybe.

I was facing this bug before i use this rom(i use lolipop stock rom).

Just do like this , if you want to set 3g on sim 2, set the sim 1 first to 2g, then set the 3g on sim 2.
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] Boomshiva:
1) don't use battery and memory hogging apps like facebook , coc etc ... Use lite apps wherever possible .

2)disable auto brightness(optional) , or any other service that keep awake the phone

3) use greenify , use apps started on boot option from settings>memory .

4)change governor , i prefer on-demand , you can use wakelock blocker (xpert user ) from settings >configuration>miscellaneous​

5) uninstall​ viper4arise /viper4android as it is consuming battery like hell in all nougat roms .

6)you can make use of mods like lspeed / govtuner ( idk if these mod helps or not )

Hope this would suffice .
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] FascistDuc:
thanks in advance, but there's a point I'm still wondering: how to uninstall viper4android or something because I don't see it anywhere from all apps? or is it not an app?
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] Boomshiva:
Viper4android is not a default app , i assume you didn't flash it so you don't have viper4android .... No question of uninstalling then
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] FascistDuc:
here it is. I fully charged my phone, flashed GovTuner. now the result didn't even make to 2 hours on-screen. the broken line is when my phone freezed and rebooted (which is also a common issue for me)
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] verydp1:
pls tell me how to root this rom. thanks
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] Boomshiva:
I see . Calibrate your battery.

Choose battery profile in govtuner . Use greenify . I assume you know how to use.

Check my battery status .
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] FascistDuc:
oh battery calibration! I missed that step after flashing Nougat ROM. I'll do it and update the result later. anyway, I think Greenify won't work at its best on Android N because of lacking Xposed
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] Boomshiva:
Greenify even works on unrooted device !!

Greenify works like a charm and greenify's privileged mode is same a xposed boost mode . Just make greenify a system app then you get access to privileged mode .
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] FascistDuc:
which way do you use to convert to system app? I tried Titanium Backup and it got stuck Processing...
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] Boomshiva:
I use lucky patcher , you can use any good file explorer like es file explorer or solid file explorer .
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] faizul134:
Camera is not working after unlocking bootloader... What is the solution?
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] jandia7381:

Flash the root add-on x86.

And then uninstall the magisk app.

Bro juyel.. How to calibrate battery? :(
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] Joanque:
Run on T00J?

I installed it on T00J, but WiFi does not work :/

How fix it ?
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] juyel92:
Here are the procedure for battery callibration -

1. Discharge your phone fully until it turns itself off.

2. Turn it on again and let it turn itself off.

3. Plug your phone into a charger and, without turning it on, let it charge until the on-screen or LED indicator says 100 percent.

4. Unplug your charger.

5. Turn your phone on. It's likely that the battery indicator won't say 100 percent, so plug the charger back in (leave your phone on) and continue charging until it says 100 percent on-screen as well.

6. Unplug your phone and restart it. If it doesn't say 100 percent plug the charger back in until it says 100 percent on screen.

7. Repeat this cycle until it says 100 percent (or as close as you think it's going to get) when you start it up without being plugged in.

8. Now, let your battery discharge all the way down to 0 percent and let your phone turn off again.

9. Fully charge the battery one more time without interruption and that's it, you have reset the Android system's battery percentage.

Follow the above steps to callibrate your battery.

Thanks. :)
[Zenfone 5 Android Development] Arakosx:
