[SuperSU] zooorgie:
I rooted with autoroot, Then I flashed Lineage 15.1

Now its NOT rooted says Supersu ?!

How do I root it again ?
[SuperSU] Ibuprophen:
I don't have this variant myself but, anytime you Root with SuperSU, it modifies/adds a few files/directories to obtain root.

Then if you flash/dirty flash, any Custom Firmware, this process ends up installing/updating many/most of what SuperSU had done.

Personally, when I flash/dirty flash a Custom Firmware, I have to add the SuperSU zip file within the second flash order (right after the Firmware) so the SuperSU can perform/redo what it needs to the Custom Firmware.

Regarding your reference to "autoroot", i can only assume that you may be referring to the "CF Auto Root". If I'm correct, I can't help you with the CF since I've never needed/had to use it.

I hope that I had explained this okay via text... :eek:

Good Luck!

[SuperSU] zooorgie:
Yes, I rooted using CF Auto Root before flashing Lineage 15.1

But should I use CF Auto Root again ?

Or using something else ?

What other options do I have ?
[SuperSU] zooorgie:
I already tried with CF Autoroot again.

Why does it say "Removed" at the end" ?

It seems that I get it rooted, but then a new Lineage update comes almost every day.

And when I let it install the uppdate, Im back in original recovery mode, TWRP is gone.

I dont think I want to reinstall TWRP every day...
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shmaiz3r:
Update: Someone suggested battery replacement. I installed my brother's phone "good" battery and it didn't fix the problem.

Having a weird situation with bootloops that worsened over time. I'm thinking it could be due to failed hardware? Maybe someone has experienced this and we can all benefit from this.

So, I kept going into random bootloops for the last 6 months. Happens during normal usage on lineage ROM AND stock ROM.

It boots into first boot screen, after ~10 seconds it blinks blue screen and reboots again.

Video:

https://youtu.be/4yCeb1J7jcs

I was sometimes able to get out of bootloop by placing phone in charger until the bootloop stops and the phone boots.

When this failed sometimes, I would go back to stock by either back2stock.zip by the great LuK1337 and sometimes from fastboot by doing the following:

While in fastboot I would boot into TWRP from adb >> wipe everything then flash stockrecovery.img >> boot into stock recovery >> while in stock recovery I flash oldest stockfirmware zip from there >> perform factory reset from within recovery then reboot.

It would always boot successfully.

Now my bootloop has worsened and no method is working out for me.

Is my phone defective? Any idea what part would be defective?

Note that it suffered from excessive heat in its recent months.

I can get into fastboot/TWRP/stockrecovery. But that's it.

Bootloader is apparently still unlocked:

[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TroyBar:
Have you flash back to original Asus image & slowly up the firmware versions?

Procedures:

1st

Phone (old firmware) > unlock bootloader > install TWRP > install custom rom > issues/unstable/more issues.

2nd

Phone (latest firmware) > unlock bootloader > install TWRP > install custom rom > :)

If 1st step was performed you need to go back & lock up the bootloader in order to update the firmware to the latest.

Asus firmware updates security/unstable & another issues...after that, you can them use custom roms to your pleasing.

Good place to start.

[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shmaiz3r:
Which version should I install? I've tried it before and it didn't work.

Also should I install it via TWRP or via Stock Recovery?

Thanks very much!
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TroyBar:
Install latest TWRP

https://dl.twrp.me/Z00T/

A good start is follow the link of the back2stock.zip you posted, follow the instructions, zip it back up to back2stock.zip with the files mention & then flash it in TWRP.

https://asus.kremowka.xyz/categories/show/2

Zenfone 2 Selfie — ZD551KL

This will rule out any issues you have, as you will have the latest firmware from Asus.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shmaiz3r:
The ROM you mentioned does not exist in the link you shared, maybe it's a regional effected page.

Screen of the webpage:

https://i.imgur.com/3WaSs5G.png

However, I downloaded the latest available ROM [Version WW_21.40.0.2214] from November 2017,,

I applied the back2stock steps and flashed via TWRP successfully.

After that I checked my bootloader via fastboot and it was still unlocked.

I could not re-lock it using any of the following commands:

fastboot oem lock

fastboot flashing lock

fastboot oem relock

Always gives me a "FAILED" message.

Also found this thread about "relocking" the bootloader:

https://xdaforums.com/zenfone-2-laser/general/guide-ze500kl-bootloader-unlock-lock-t3655340

I flashed "relock_bootloader.zip" via TWRP and it didn't lock bootloader.

Then I thought maybe it will would work if I flashed RAW rom via Asus Flasher [from same thread].. So I googled for a ZE551KL RAW firmware and found it here:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B43Ue6xY9MmdRVdDRWtSSVNUdDg/view

Tried flashing it via the Asus Flash Tool and got an error "Phone is protected". See screenshot:

[IMG="image2"]https://i.imgur.com/ihyM07f.png[/IMG]

What do you suggest we should try next?

The phone is still having the same bootloop.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shmaiz3r:
So after a little digging, it appears that my Bootloader is *NOT* unlocked.

But how come it gives an *unlocked* result for the command "fastboot oem device-info" ???

[IMG="unlocked"]https://i.imgur.com/ufid3sH.png[/IMG]

Is it possible to have a "locked" Bootloader in reality and showing otherwise in fastboot checking command??

To add, I can't install TWRP from fastboot using:

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

I can boot the img, then install it as recovery from within TWRP.

Is this also "locked" bootloader behavior?

So many questions.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TroyBar:
Sorry was tired last night, not the below version as it is for ZE551KL

Version WW-21.40.1220.2056 2017/03/16

You need the one(s) for Zenfone 2 Selfie — ZD551KL

Procedures:

1st

Phone (old firmware) > unlock bootloader > install TWRP > install custom rom > issues/unstable/more issues.

2nd

Phone (latest firmware) > unlock bootloader > install TWRP > install custom rom > :)

If 1st step was performed you need to go back & lock up the bootloader in order to update the firmware to the latest.

Asus firmware updates security/unstable & another issues...after that, you can them use custom roms to your pleasing.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shmaiz3r:
So, I should install latest ZD551KL stock firmware on my ZE551KL ? Is that correct?

Could you please message me on Telegram? I have the same username.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TroyBar:
Sorry is your phone ZD551KL (ZOOT) or ZE551KL, choose the one that is yours, mine is ZD551KL (ZOOT).
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TroyBar:
I have tried the above back2stock method, placed the files inside & also outside the meta-inf folder, re-zipped it up to back2stock.zip (2 separated folder zips (one for inside & other outside)) & flashed it (inside zip errors out, will outside zip works with update system, but is stuck there.

Another possibility below for an unlock bootloader, but requires you to have the stock OS installed, this has not work for me with a custom rom. I will need to find my ZD551KL (ZOOT) stock OS to try.

The touch screen in my car's calibration is fine because it all works normally until I connect to Android Auto. But once I connect to AA the touch calibration for both my navigation apps, Maps and Waze, are off. I need to touch almost an inch above the spot I want to touch. If I switch to my music app in AA everything works normally again. It just seems to be in the navigation apps. Any ideas on how I can fix it? It has been going on for a few months and is kind of annoying.

I've same problem on my car. I didn't change any adjustment (or so I think) . When I setup first time with my note9 everything was working normally. I removed app and then install again but still not working. When I change with my android tablet navigation is working normally. I understand there is a conflict on software.
[Android Auto General] tayfune:
Solved

I've find the solution myself.

As I said I'm using note 9 (I think it's same issue with s9+) When screen resolution is WQHD+ (2960x1140) it's cause the problem. When reduce to FHD+ (2220x1080) it's going to normal.

if encrypted data is tangled with keys to boot partition, so good procedure to not loose data would be:

1.Have normal, unencrypted data.

2.Make backup of boot and data and system in twrp.

3.flash alexandr_rom with string encrypt in filename.

4.before reboot flash custom kernel or magisk etc....

5.when upgrading kernel: restore unecrypted data and boot

6 do step 3 and 4 again.

Yes?

or maybe first flash custom kernel and magisk and alexandr rom with string _encrypt as last step?

will alexandr rom relace custom kernel with stock?

Hello, need your help guys.

So my Whyred bootlooping now. What I did previously was wiping System, Cache, Dalvik & Data before flashing custom ROM -- I know, this shouldn't be an issue. But since I can do fastboot, I tried to flashes recovery. I tried a few (TWRP, RedWolf & Batik), for each the steps were all the same: Via fastboot flash the dummy image to manipulate ARB check, then flash Recovery and finish with boot into recovery.

The phone booting into recovery, I can see the screen of recoveries for few second, then phone bootlooping again.

What should I do?

And for additional information, my phone was unlocked bootloader -- it still unlocked because I can see the Unlocked sign on bootloop screen. I also tried to flash official MIUI rom via fastboot (whyred_global_images_V10.0.6.0.OEIMIFH_20181127) but it was failed because anti roll back -- I also don't understand this because the ARB was supposed not allowing me to downgrade, but why is it also not allowing me to flash the latest ROM too?

I am now stucked in bootloop -- still can do fastbooting, but really have no idea how to flash any rom and get into the system. Really need help help help please

Hello,

It seems that the camera focus made for still opjects, as if I am going to take a picure of friends for example, I have to ask them to stay still for at least 3 seconds!!

What can I do to make it take instant shots as soon as I press the button with no delay of the auto focus..

I emaild HTC, they replied that a representative will look into the matter but they never reply..

Regards
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] aberz:
I am not a camera expert but I could explain something for you .

Turn off auto focus just make thing worse. It makes the quality of the picture better. This is why some review websites gave kaiser a thumb up for this auto focus feature.

What you looking for here is shutter speed , not turning off auto focus. The faster the shutter speed, the better pictures you can take ( especially for shaky hand and moving object ). Its so last year that picture of still objects are always better since most of camera out there doesnt have a fast enough shutter speed .

Correct me if I am wrong. I did some good reading about camera on Newegg.com when I was looking to buy a decent camera for my girl .
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NotATreoFan:
Check out this thread. You can reduce the time the phone takes between focusing and capturing the image.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ghanem:
Thank you aberz, but the delay is only on the auto focus, its the time that takes [ ] to go from gray [ ] to green [ ]

I have a nokia N95, it has it too, as soon as I click the button, the picture is there with better quality from tytn on the same resolution..

Thank you NotATreoFan, tried it, unfortunately no changes noticed..

The strange thing is that the front camera does not have that delay, it captutures instantly, but of course with very low quality

I will follow up on the thread you mentioned.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] belon_cfy:
Front camera does not have the auto focus feature .

Everybody hope their handset come with auto focus camera, just wondering why you want to disable and give up to use it?

Without auto focus , the picture you take will be a blur photo , especially closer items and object.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kaluzu:
don't press the camera button. instead push the middle button on the navigation pad just once. the phone will auto focus and immediately take the pic. it's really working out to be the best way to take the pics.
