[UPDATE][STOCK][PIE][v072][WW SKU] Digital Wellbeing included & few bugs are fixed.

Finally, Asus managed to give us Digital Wellbeing. I installed it in my phone which has WW SKU and here are some changes or improvements which I noticed.

Bugs fixed in v066

1) Digital Wellbeing is pre-installed.

2) Power button icon in dark mode was black. Now they've fixed it.

3) Brightness bar bug. It has been fixed.

4) New icon for FM Radio app. The UI hasn't changed though.

5) They've fixed the vibration intensity. It was too low before.

6) The black screen bug when you swipe up the lock screen is fixed.

7) No more low volume in headphones.

Bugs fixed in v067

1) The network indicator icons in the status bar were misaligned. It has been fixed.

2) Finally, the front camera beauty mode bug in which the photos taken in front camera were softening the areas below the eyes, has been fixed.

3) New boot animation. (Well, it's just for Indians. They've changed the text "Zenfone" to "ASUS" logo while booting. Because of copyright infringement. There's another file inbootanimation.zip apart from bootanimation.zip in /system/media/)

Bugs fixed in v069

1) NFC issue has been fixed.

Bugs fixed in v070

1) They had removed Widevine L1 in v069. Now it has been restored.

2) Weird animation when switching from landscape mode to portrait mode has been fixed. But the ghost notch hasn't been fixed. The notch appears for a micro second and disappears when you open or exit a game which runs in landscape mode.

Bugs fixed in v072

1) The misaligned battery icon in the statusbar is fixed.

Here are some bugs.

1) The very old ugly bottom display corners is back. It seems they couldn't fix the ghost notch issue and hence disabled the image overlay used to round the bottom corners and the notch.

2) The statusbar width is smaller in landscape mode and hence you can see the notch popping out.

2) Network upload/download activity arrow icons in status bar should be disabled when the device is not connected to mobile data and should be enabled only when particular sim's mobile data is enabled. So that some space can be saved for other status bar icons like alarm. (This is an old bug)

I'll update this thread if I find new improvements or bugs. If you find any, do comment.

Installation instructions:

Case 1: If you are using stock recovery

1) Make sure you have another copy of official update zip file. This is important. Because if updating fails, it corrupts the update zip file and you'll have to download the zip file again. It happened to me. Luckily I had saved a copy in my laptop which saved my time and bandwidth.

2) Copy the update zip file to the root of your phone's memory. Not inside any folder. It should detect an update and you'll get a notification. If not, reboot the phone. It'll detect.

Case 2: If you're using custom recoveries like TWRP, OFRP or PBRP

1) Make sure you have another copy of official update zip file. In case if something goes wrong, you don't have to download it again.

2) Use 7-Zip and navigate to META-INF\com\google\android\ inside the zip file. There you'll see a file named "updater-script". Drag and drop it to convenient folder. Edit and delete the lines above this line using Notepad++ and save it. (The text in red depends on the build number of every update)

ui_print("Target: Android/sdm660_64/sdm660_64:[COLOR="Red"]9/PKQ1/16.2017.1906.067-20190703[/COLOR]:user/release-keys");

3) After deleting those lines, drag and drop it back to the same folder in 7-Zip and overwrite it. Copy the edited update zip file to your phone and flash it using custom recovery. Use PBRP or OFRP to flash the update zip if you want to disable forced encryption.
