[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobsauce47:
Had a bit of a roller coaster ride over the past 12 hours trying to flash lineageos onto my phone. Let me try to give an idea of what has happened so you guys know what's up:

To start off:

I downloaded the unlock apk from the asus website and ran it last night

Afterwards, I loaded into fastboot and installed twrp

I made a backup using twrp and then I wiped the internal storage

Tried to flash the lineageos rom and got error 7

I thought I would restart the phone and try again. Not being able to get back into bootloader I thought I bricked my phone. It was late night so I decided to sleep and come back to it.

Woke up this morning and got into bootloader (I assume I was just pressing the buttons incorrectly)

Restored my backup and used my phone for a bit

After googling, found that I needed to modify some files in the lineageos zip to fix the errror 7. Proceeded to do so by wiping again and flashing the modified rom along with gapps.

Got into bootloop. So I turned the phone off and booted into boot loader hoping to get into twrp again, and try once more. Now, when I select recovery mode, it doesnt work and puts me back to bootloader.

So this is where I am now. And I've tried a couple of things, that may or may not have messed this phone up.

First off I've tried to, reinstall twrp.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vM0ODzSb1y4 ( wrong link )

https://youtu.be/BJPEc1NG_k8

Using this link I ran the file that he has given while in bootloader. Nothing changed. So I also tried to just download the latest twrp and flash that. Resulting with the same situation as before.

With a little more google I figured I would flash some stock images.

http://www.android.gs/how-to-unbrick-asus-zenfone-2-and-go-back-to-stock-android-os/

With this website. I went and downloaded firmware from asus website. Extracted it and went about flashing each item. That is when I realized that the file doesnt contain a system.img. ****.

At this point I also had a system.img from:

https://xdaforums.com/zenfone2/help/enter-recovery-551ml-z00a-t3345633/page2

And I just proceeded to try and flash that in replacement for what I did not have. But I got an error:

http://imgur.com/a/TldyG

Now from what I see here. It wiped it without adding anything. So now I'm a little scared.

I found this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5BNfaU_O9o

With links to various files. Now I'm not sure if I can just download one and flash each file like before.

TL;DR: I've tried to flash lineageos. It put me into bootloop. I can't get back into recovery. I tried to flash some img files I found and I messed up (check imgur link above). Not sure where to go from here.

Thanks for any help guys.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenbo111:
What were you on before you started? Usually the error 7 is because you weren't on the right bootloader. In this case you need the MM bootloader. If you were coming from Lollipop that would explain it.

---------- Post added at 05:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:44 PM ----------

Oh and what model zf2 do you have
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobsauce47:
My bad I should have also included the model number in the post, I'm using the ZE551ML. Yeah, I believe I was on 5.0 when I started. If I hadn't all of this would have been solved? I'm so sad.

MM bootloader? (Sorry, I'm a newbie at this) So where would I go from here? Finding the MM bootloader and installing it with fastboot as well as trying to get twrp working again?

Thanks for the quick reply.

edit: realized i also linked the wrong youtube video in the first post, if you want to check it out again
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenbo111:
I would go to this thread

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3448966

And download the 4.21.40.184 raw image and the asus flash tool. (Google how to use it) use the tool to flash the raw image. That will give you stock marshmallow. Then go get the modder tool from

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3458145

Use that to unlock and install TWRP.

Then you should be good to go to flash LinOS
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobsauce47:
When trying to install the asus flash tool, it tells me that it failed to install drivers and that I should do them manually. Is that necessary?

I really do appreciate the help. Thanks so much.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenbo111:
It sounds from your first post that the drivers should already be installed. Fastboot commands worked for you before right?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobsauce47:
Yes, they were working. So it's talking about asus usb drivers?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenbo111:
Yes
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobsauce47:
Thanks

Thank you. Thank you. I am downloading the raw right now. Will update when I use the flash tool and try the modder.

For the modder it looks like I will:

-unlock bootloader

-install twrp

-root

and there is an option of installing xposed. Seems like it gives you more versatility when flashing roms. Do you think it is stable and has enough support to be used with the zenfone? Are updates done automatically and does the framework stay when updating/flashing roms?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobsauce47:
Getting an error now running the asus flash tool. Any idea? http://imgur.com/a/gOqf2

Also, is it safe to turn the device off? After flashing the imgs I'm scared to turn it off. If I accidentally boot into os will the phone break?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenbo111:
If you plan on installing LinOS. You don't need to root first. (you can if you want, but it would be a waste of time). Xposed is great but I don't think it works with LinOS yet. (at least that was the case when I was on that rom) LinOS does have weekly Ota updates. Just need to have twrp 3.0.3 or higher for the update process to work

---------- Post added at 08:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:32 PM ----------

Do you have the phone in bootloader (fastboot mode)?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobsauce47:
Yea it's in fastboot mode with the android figure and his stomach open.

edit: i restarted bootloader and now its in the usb icon mode

DOES ANYONE HAVE THE CODE FOR THE LG FLEX H950 VERSION 5.1.1 I NEED TO FIND THE HIDDEN FILES TO SEE WHAT IN THE WORLD IS GOING ON WITH MY CAMERA. IT WON'T CONNECT AT ALL. I HAVE TRIED TO DOWNLOAD OTHER APPS WITH CAMERA BUT THEY ONLY GIVE ME THE SELFIES. i DON'T WANNA HAVE TO RESTART MY CELL EVERY TIME I WANT TO TAKE A PHOTO
[LG G Flex 2] hyelton:
Your post hardly makes any sense..

What code? If there's any code that would be something you setup.

If the rear camera is blank or black but front camera works fine then it's most likely a hardware issue assuming you've already tried to perform a factory reset.
[LG G Flex 2] rtrip:
The same thing happened to me. I had to use a different camera app to get the rear camera working again.

[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neko64:
Hello all, I'm a new user here and I have a question about my new amazon tablet. I know that you can't uninstall the annoying preinstalled apps through the OS alone. I know that rooting is an option, but I'd rather wait because I just got this tablet and it'd suck if I bricked it already. There's an app that I downloaded called CCleaner, and I went to an app management option in this app and it lists the preinstalled as system apps, and gives the option to uninstall them. I just want to know if it's safe too do so, that it won't brick/implode my device or make it so I can't access Amazon's features. I can send a pic of the app for reference, thanking people in advance
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DB126:
CCleaner is a good app. Although is says uninstall most likely it will simply disable system apps on an unrooted device as it doesn't have permissions to uninstall. Start with something benign like the Kindle app. Then move on from there, one app at a time. Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] sanjsrik:
I ordered this:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XXP8KF7/ref=cfb_at_prodpg

However, I made a mistake and instead meant to order the one for the S8+. I checked about returning it, would cost me more to return it as I bought with a discount code that made my final cost $3.99 and the shipping back would put me in the hole $6.

Yes, I am an idiot and ordered the wrong case.

Does anyone want to pay for the shipping and I'll put it in an envelope and you can have it?

Mods, not sure if this is selling. I'm NOT trying to sell this. I'm trying to give it away for the cost of shipping. Only cost me $3.99 but I figure if anyone could use it, they can at least pay for the shipping.

Let me know.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Philosophy757:
I'm in the SAME boat. Changed my mind on the S8 after I bought the cases and am going to get the S8+. Cases were 3 bucks but $6 to send back. Was going to see if anyone at my job wanted them first. I'll keep my eye on this thread and if you get any bites I'll do the same with mine.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] sanjsrik:
Your'e a good man, Charlie Brown. Maybe we should ask anyone else who had mis-ordered a case for one device or another to post here as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Tsukihi:
I'll pay for the shipping if you're willing to ship to Canada :)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] sanjsrik:
I can ship to anywhere, you're the one paying for the shipping. I just want someone who can use it getting it as I ordered the S8+ rather than the S8.

IM me the details and I'll figure it out tomorrow. If that works. Tell me how you want it shipped and so on.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Bxrider117:
I'll trade you one. I preordered the S8 and I mistakenly ordered an S8+ case. I got it with a Slickdeals code and it cost more to send it back. I'll send mine to you. I live in NY zip code 11010.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] km8j:
Lol I ordered a similar case for the plus by accident. I'll trade...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] tourbound129:
This thread is a good idea but just wanted to throw something out there:

If you ordered from Amazon and the automated process of returning an item shows a charge for return shipping, all you have to do is initiate a chat with them and they will set up a return label for no charge.

I've never paid anything to return an item.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Shuuin:
Same here, ordered something that came from the US and i live in the EU. "Done that a few times now"

I have had to return some of the items, where it told me to pay for the return. And i didn't feel like paying almost 80$ for shipping back.

Contacted, and they setup a return label i was able to print and put on the box. Return to my ship and collect store and pay nothing.

Same when i ordered my s7 from amazon.de, was told to pay return. Contacted amazon, got return label :)

Got phone replaced and send. No charge
[Security Discussion] mickrick:
I hope this is in the right section, if not could a mod please move it to the correct one?

I have just had a notification on my phone, saying Authentication Required. When I tap it, a box appears saying "Account verification Password has changed at [my non-Google email address]. Enter password". Then there is a password box and a tick box marked "Show password". But there is nothing to say which app is asking for the password. And I haven't changed the password for that email account in maybe 8 months. The notification has a @ symbol with a ! in the bottom right corner (see the attached pic).

I'm obviously suspicious of this. Has anyone any idea what app might be asking for this, or does it sound like a phishing attempt to get my password?

[IMG="notification symbol"]https://i.imgsafe.org/143cee8c15.png[/IMG]
[Security Discussion] IronRoo:
if you don't recognise the sign in screen you are right to be suspicious.

I don't recognise the logo and an image search on tineye.Com didn't show anything, maybe if you use the original image it might find it?

Any other signs of possible infection? Is it still happening?
[Security Discussion] koreanbug:
would not be putting my password into anything i do not recognize. if you dont know what its for. its probably a hack.
[Security Discussion] mickrick:
It disappeared itself after a few hours and never reappeared. I had forgotten all about it until now. I never did enter my details. I just got warning bells when I couldn't find any associated app.

[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] mx597turbo:
I have spent the better part of an hour searching for a specific answer to these questions. So far, I have found two sources that claim band 12 works on Tmo. However I have only seen one review on Amazon from a couple weeks back that claim the phone does not support volte on Tmo. If it doesn't, that's a deal breaker for me. Can anyone, with the latest update, confirm or deny whether B12 and VOLTE on Tmo is working or not. Thanks very much in advance.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Kuba5262:
At *#*#4636#*#* testing menu there is band selector for United States and Japan

For sure at Tmo US if there is certification for this handset, VoLTE should be supported

regards,
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Halftrack:
To the best of my knowledge band 12 works. Multiple people here have even posted screenshots with the phone operating on Band 12. Sadly I live in the Chicago area and we are the the last major city to get Band 12. So I cannot personally verify it since it isn't up and running here yet. As for VoLTE that is a two way street. Lately Sony has been working with various providers to get it enabled. Basically it's all good on their end to a degree but for a phone to operate on VoLTE the carrier provider (in this case Tmo) must also flip a switch on their end as well. So in the end yes it probably can but no clue if we will ever get it here in the states. The following is to a link that explains the current situation. http://www.xperiablog.net/2016/11/30/sony-to-add-volte-support-to-xperia-x-concept-shortly/

P.S. Side note the phone info does have a switch for enabling VoLTE provisioning. However for now it does nothing (simply switches back to default radio when exiting the screen).
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Halftrack:
Oddly enough the switch got turned on for Band 12 in the Chicago area today. And yes it works and it works on UK firmware too.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
If you could answer couple of questions that would make things easier for me to get this phone.

1) So when your phone is on band 12 and you make a call, does it stay on that band or goes to band 4?

2) VoLTE is working properly?

3) Any word about having WiFi calling available?
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] davwman:
Band 12 works fine. No volte. Other than that it's been flawless on tmobile!
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
I didn't know that it is possible to make a call on Band 12 when phone doesn't support VoLTE.

About ROM: Firstly just install rom and sound fix (or other fixes which you used) and boot. Then flash gapps pack. Setup Wizard has problem on me. I tried stock versiyon 20160408. Maybe other one is okay.

Sound is good. It has Pixel UI blue, not green.

P.S. If you use Sound Fix v4.1 please flash this one. Original one has build.prob and it changes to Android version and other things related to build.prob.
