Regarding update firmwares you can get them from ASUS support page all of them will stay there when they are added. So no need to upload them somewhere else. Unless someone else would like to share the files, i would be happy to add the links to the first page.

What differences between the ROG I and ROG II really stick out for you?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
Personally i love the Oreo Rom on the ROG more than the Pie Rom of the ROG 2, overall i think the Oreo Rom is polished compared to the half baked Pie Rom. The physical size of the ROG phone is just perfect in hand compared to the ROG 2. Other than that they are pretty much a like except for the obvious hardware differences. I was thinking of selling the ROG since i got the ROG 2 but i am keeping both until something better comes a long and then i might sell the ROG phone. But to be honest out of all the phones that i have bought and used these 2 phones are my favorite.

New update! :)
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] xyrockrain:
Is this for the ww rom? Still no update for me. (Cn version)
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
You can check the photos it's for the CN rom. I am still on the stock CN rom. I haven't tempered with the phone yet waiting to see if flashing the WW rom will still get updates.

But if someone has flashed the WW rom over the CN and still not able to get OTA it doesn't necessarily mean he will not get OTA, generally speaking the CN rom gets faster updates than the WW rom.

WARNING that the newest OTA update (9-29-2019) patches out the ability to disable the built-in Launcher. So if you update you will be stuck using that launcher instead of Nova, Apex, etc.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
Actually that was the case since the previous update, update No.4.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] sev7en:
Hello,

the CN version is full of Chinese apps as you can realize... there are the themes, yes and also several additional eye-candies but the user experience is really poor for the CN language. Also with that, no updates...

I guess the best it will a custom rom with the spoofed fingerprint to get security patches at least.

Is your bootloader locked?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] hassantops:
Its. Unlocked then lucked
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
To be honest the only way I see for it to be successful for you is by following every step in this guide https://xdaforums.com/rog-phone-2/how-to/guide-convert-cn-to-ww-rom-26-08-t3961042

Without skipping any, if you're not successful with the current raw rom you are on I would suggest flashing an older one and trying again. But do this taking into account the risk that it might not work.

Sorry if I am not giving the type of help you need. Good luck!

Anyone know when the WW 1910.34 is coming??
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
Probably after 2-3 days or 1 week tops from the CN update.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] xyrockrain:
Can you post the latest cn firmware update? I am on CN ROM and I never Flashed the ww rom but im not getting OTA updates. Im still om 1908.21. I need to update
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
What do you mean by post?, I already stated the version number. If you didn't get the OTA notification try to manually check from the settings page. If you are sill not getting it then you can download the update from ASUS website which if not uploaded to the site yet it will be within 2-3 days.

I haven't tried yet, since I am waiting to receive it via OTA.I have the stock Chinese tencent version, no root no unlocked, living in china, so it may arrive soon I guess. If not, ill manually install it next week, kind of curious to try the new slide feature of the air triggers.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] cheetah2k:
Maybe refresh your browser (reload the site) - its obviously cached with old website info

The ROM is there
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Mayank_khiladi:
Can u please guide me on how can i enable the Air triggers slide gesture. Not able to find any such option even though it was mentioned in the change log of the latest update received today
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
It doesn't seem to be there but on the log list it states that it's beta so maybe in a future update.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Mayank_khiladi:
Found a way

Just tap on the blue or red air triggers button on the screen while assigning and u will see a drop down menu with slide options
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
Thx, to make it more clear for others. Go to Game genie/toolbar in the settings. There select the games or apps you want Air triggers to work with. Later on go to one of those apps open it and slide from the left to bring up Game Genie, tap air triggers to set them up. You will get the option to change the triggers from tap to slide either vertical or horizontal. Having said that I still prefer tap.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] C0rdy:
Now i am confusing, from what you said here the CN Rom seem bad compare to WW Rom. But you said it before that you will change your WW ver to CN original Ver. Why change it if WW is Better?

WM 6.1

Hi,

I've downloaded the latest version today, and am still having problems with it. When I exit CEII, it crashes Magic Button, IBE Lite, etc., and I have to perform a soft reset to bring everything back. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Dave
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] anoano:
If you installed Magic Button, IBE Lite, etc. on storage card, maybe reinstalling them on main device memory helps.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] dtfamily:
Any other suggestions than moving items to Main Memory?

Hi,

Sorry for taking so long to get back to this post. I've had a few things going on, and frankly I tried some other ways to get this to work, but keep coming back to CEII being the best way to synchronize.

I have not tried moving Magic Button, etc. to main memory because I basically don't put anything in main memory to keep it freed up. Would there be any other suggestions to try to get it to work? It crashes the programs every time I use it...

Thanks,

Dave
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Howl55:
Hello,

the volume buttons of my mom's phone (Ascend Mate) don't work anymore and for an unknow reason the phone keeps constantly to enter into the android system recovery. The problem is that I can only reboot the phone but it repeats the loop again and again.

Is there a way, at least, to access to the documents folders of the phone to copy the data (images, video, etc)?

Is there a way to dismantle the volume buttons without opening the entire phone? Maybe the buttons could be detached from the body... I don't know...

Thanks for the help

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] SnowFuhrer:
Get the international version, N950F. The US versions do not have bootloader unlock so I wouldn't recommend getting one of those.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] Rashad83:
Hi guys,

These apps i am about to introduce will change your phone experience for the better not just our phone for that matter but any Android phone.

1. Immersive Mode Manager (Paid)

This app is a must for every Amoled screen to protect your phone from future screen burn, the other thing is you get to enjoy the full screen experience with every app on your phone. I install this app on all of my Android devices.

I have created a thread long ago doing it manually but i think it's too much of work for people who want an app for that, if you want a manual free alternative check it out.

2. Glimpse Notifications ( Free)

So on the ROG 2 phone only a couple of apps does wake the device when you receive a notification mostly chatting apps and I guess not all of them. This is where Glimpse Notifications solves the problem that is if you just want the screen to simply light up.

3. Blokada (Free)

You must have an Ad blocker on the list if you are unrooted and definitely one of the best open source and free app out there is this one.

4. Fluid Navigation Gestures (Free/Pro Features)

I will dare to say IMPO that it's the best custom gesture navigation app on Android currently. Also it's way better than the default gesture navigation because of the extra features.

5. Tiles (Paid)

Although it's a paid app it's worth its price. The beauty of having it you get options of having tiles of any application you need including the power button which I use mainly for that purpose, instead of clicking and wearing the power button.

6. Edge Gestures (Paid)

This is by one of my favorite developers in the play store, he has some other apps in the play store you should check them out. Now why I recommend this app because with this app you can add extra features to the default system gesture navigation which completes it.

I stopped using FNG because in certain apps it doesn't play well and sometimes it stops. So using this app you can add whatever shortcuts, apps using one swipe from whichever side of the screen you like especially the top part of the side where back swipe doesn't work anyway which makes the default gesture navigation complete.

7. Zone Launcher (Free/Paid)

Launch any app from any screen with one swipe, this is a new favorite.

-------

Edit:

I have removed "Light Flow" from the list due to it not working properly with our device. When you try to customize the led notifications for third party apps and then testing the modifications within the app itself everything seems be okey. But it turns out non of the modifications apply or stick. Anyway for now there isn't any third party app that can customize the led notifications for our device!

I will keep updating this thread once other apps are discovered or suggested. :)

-------
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] iShubham:
Thanks for the suggestions! Definitely these apps seem useful and apart from Fluid Nav Gestures and Light Flow, rest are new to me.

Also a small correction, link to Fluid Nav Gestures is wrong(tiles link attached to Fluid Nav Gestures text). :)

[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] Annie the Eagle:
Hi, thanks for these. I really like FNG. However, I'm having an issue with Immersive Mode. All the input boxes that are normally above the keyboard (e.g. try to change the name of your phone) are hidden because they are now under the keyboard.

Any idea how to fix this?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] Rashad83:
Make sure that the system navigation is set to virtual key navigation instead of gesture. Now if you have the pro version of FNG you can disable the navigation bar from the app settings. So either buy the pro version of FNG and disable the navigation bar from there or use another app to disable the navigation bar which you can find some apps do that in the play store.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] stealthj:
I couldn't get light flow to work. What settings have u tested it with to get it working?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] Rashad83:
Make sure it's not killed by mobile manager. Also disable battery optimization for it. Personally I mainly use a different color for two apps sms and calls. I use red color for calls and yellow for sms.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] stealthj:
Did both of those but still nothing. When I go to test and turn screen off, nothing happens.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] Rashad83:
On my side when I do a test it works fine. But I can't confirm if it's working all the time because I can't recall the last time I noticed the notification light of my custom notifications.

Try to reinstall the app and play with settings.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] stealthj:
I tried everything. I also have the pro version of led blinker, and that doesn't work either.

But who knows. Maybe a few restarts will help
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] NajimKiSaad:
I tried Light Flow Legacy, and it seems to work, except for cyan, blue and light blue color. If i put light blue, the led is Yellow. If i put cyan, the led is green. What's wrong?...
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] Rashad83:
You can only customize 3 colors: yellow, green, red.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] stealthj:
At least U got it to work. I installed light flow legacy and did the test.. still absolutely nothing.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] stealthj:
I only see the notification light when the phone is off and is charging
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] bruciebabie1963:

I have tried both Fluid Navigation Gestures and Edge Gestures, both pro/paid version, and the system will sooner or later make them stop working, and have to enable them again, having to give them permission to draw over other apps from time to time and it is a bit annoying. did you or someone manage to make it work perfectly? any tips on what might I be doing wrong? thanks
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sedariya11:
I don't think Tiles app works as it says it's only for Naugut and Oreo. I have paid for it and now it's not working. I don't know why did you say that it works with our phone. You should not give wrong info to others without checking.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] Rashad83:
If you don't know how to use it that's is your problem, I have it right now on my device working. Add to that I haven't recommended any app on this thread without testing. Choose your words carefully!

One more thing, if you don't have anything positive to say just move on and let me be, you don't have to visit this thread or take my word for that matter!
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] Rashad83:
I stopped using fluid navigation for while now, I use the the stock gesture navigation + edge gestures for shortcuts which work together without any issues.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Themes, Apps, and Mods] rossonero777:
For shortcuts? What do you mean? But it isn't the app stop working from time to time?
