Fire Hazard

i warn angst doing this as this could over charge the battery and when a Lithium Iron or Polymer is over charged they burst into flames or explode and spread nasty toxic chemicals every where. if this be the case it may be time to try a new rom and see if that fixes your problem, try someone elce's charger if this wont fix your problem it may bet time for a new mainboard as these have the charging circuit built in

lithium rechargeable are compact high energy storages devices, and if not charged properly become dangerous
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Superman859:
I had charging issues with my 8125 - it would charge with the charger, but when I unplugged the charger (it would read 100%, say I charged from 52% to 100% or something), it would drop really low to like 25% or 23% - sometimes it dropped all the way, and I could no longer get the battery to charge because my travel charger was 500mA and the original charger was 1A - it didn't have enough power.

I had to give it a boost by using a 9V battery and twist ties - touching the battery like you are doing here. I did it for 15 seconds a couple times, popped it in, and it had enough juice to start charging. However, I wouldn't want to do this too long on it as the battery got warm pretty quick and I saw a glimpse of smoke at one point.

After being cautious and not letting it lose charge all the way again, after a few charges it seems to have improved. It no longer drops battery power when unplugging and seems to work as it should.

Not sure if yours drops when you unplug it like mine was, or if it steadily drains while plugged in. Anyways, I thought my charger was just wacked, but it is working fine now after a few charges and being careful and keeping a close eye on things....I also thought it was the battery, but I ordered a new OEM battery, popped it in, and when I unplugged the charger that battery dropped and lost power as well. Now I have two batteries and both seem to work ok, but I did have to play around with them a lot and it did take a few charges before they started working like they should again. I'm not sure what was going on, because it couldn't have been the battery (I replaced it with a new one), and now the charger is acting properly.

Granted, this is all with an 8125 which is older, but there may be something in common here. All I know is it does seem to be fixed and it didn't require any additional purchases or replacements.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Mattnokis:
sounds like the charging circuits are wacked, this could be caused by dry joints on the charger "smart" chip, but a little heads up with Li-Ion, they don't like gettin wet, (sweat included) once they have been wet they become a fire hazard, (ultramag69 help me out here, remember that one you gave me that was full of mud?!?).

they also don't like going below their threshold voltage of 2.1v per cell, (i think 2.1 for now) after that the battery becomes a resistor and is not worth trying to shock back into life with a 9V battery, as these have a protection circuit built in, as well once in this state they become another fire hazard, it may be worth buying a cheap $30 butane soldering iron with surface mount attachment and just going over some of the areas located round and on the opposite side of the battery, every thing under the silver covers is RF shielded and not worth trying to reflow.

just don't keep the heat on too long, as you may and will desolder components on the opposite side of the board.

other than that if the charger is giving +5 volts respective to its ground, its fine, the difference between the 1A and 500mA chargers is the rate at which its charges the battery, slower is better for Li-Ion due to battery construction for the life span of the battery (if you get more than 6 months out of one your doing good by manufactures standards)

heck even try checking the phones USB connector, it may be stuffed or shorted
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] sanurocks:
There is a noticeable red tint on dark grey color everywhere while the brightness slider is set in range of 0-49%. Effect is more pronounced while using 120hz refresh rate and less while using other modes. 50% and above and the tint just disappears.

Does anybody suffers with the same issue? This is indian variant of the phone.

Attached image can be used for testing.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Abhi Dahiya:
This seems to be a problem with many ROG 2 owners. The Red tint is massive at low brightness. And yes, this is a screen problem not a software issue.

Better try replacing the unit. But there is no guarantee new phone won't have the same problem as many people are reporting this issue.

I think maybe Asus is buying cheaper display from some other manufacturer, not Samsung. Here is a similar complaint thread on Asus forums -

https://zentalk.asus.com/en/discussion/11085/display-red-tint-issue-on-my-rog-2

And if it very troublesome for you, simply return it, ask for refund and buy some other device.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] sanurocks:
I will probably do that but samsung has that stupid hole. I sold my op 7 pro for this.

But 1 thing that is interesting is at 60hz the red tint is visible at 0-10% range. And the higher the refresh rate the more brightness range it covers like at 120hz its visible at 0-40% range. At 50% nothing of such sort is visible at any refresh rate.

It mostly has to do with that 1ms gtg ie grey to grey response time at high refresh rate. And yes all units will have that issue maybe not at 60hz but definitely at 120hz.

Lets see if asus has any response. I still have my return window left.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] resident0915:
And now you know why others don't have 120Hz AMOLED panels, and why reviewers complain about the minimum brightness being too bright. Asus tried to mitigate these issues because the panels are only acceptable above a certain brightness.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] madsud:
I have an Indian unit and have the red tint. I don't have an issue as i keep my screen at 50% brightness. Hope in Android 10 apps use black instead of dark grey for the dark mode
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Abhi Dahiya:
Reality is that most apps including google ones are going the way of dark grey background, not pure black.

Also always 50% brightness? Don't you turn it down in room with no lights or low lights?

---------- Post added at 08:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 AM ----------

You sold OP7 Pro for this? Seriously bro? I mean unless one is a gaming fanatic, ROG doesn't make sense for someone who wants a overall great experience. It was evident that Asus has cut corners at many places when they priced it so low.

Even if it's 60Hz, red tint shouldn't be there. It's an example of not a good display.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] sanurocks:
OP7 Pro had its issues, I bought it on first sale. camera focus was not good, camera output was soft around corners while clicking text/documents for sharing. the screen though gorgeous looking was actually hard to use. i can recall a particular issue - i use phone pe and the menu for edit beneficiary was just in the screen space where it started to become edge and it required multiple touch to activate it.

actually rog 2 feels more premium in hand and the weight distribution is quite good as compared to op7 pro, it was top heavy. i have large hands so actual phone size was not the issue with either op7 pro or rog 2.

if one can ignore this red tint issue almost every aspect is better than op7 pro. screen above 50% brightness( which is actually not 50% screen brightness output, its just 50% slider) hdr in video playback works very well, its a quite brighter than op7 pro. Sharpness is less but only apparent on close viewing. Sound quality is better on speakers and louder too. Screen smoothness is much better. gets less hot then op7 pro, Cyber hunter on full was 47-48 on op7 pro, its 44-45 on rog ii. and the battery life is way better. There are much differences to be pointed out but the thread will grow.

Though the phone might not look professional in a meeting and i don't think it will receive timely android updates. But as a usable device i find this better than op 7 pro. If the grey management was not an issue this would have been almost unbeatable in its category and even in a higher category. op7 pro costed me 51.5k after bank discount, this costed 34k after bank discount.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] GeekGod:
I'm swapping my Galaxy S8 in for this. How certain are we that this red tint is a hardware issue?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] suzook:
Definitely a hw issue. Its only notcieable between 15 to 30%. I wouldnt worry about it.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] bluegizmo83:
It's so minor I've literally never noticed it (until using your test image just now) and I've been using this phone for almost a month now. I'm filing this under not an issue for me.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] cheetah2k:
Not an issue for me. My brightness is pretty much always set to 50% and 90hz - never even noticed it. If you're running brightness down around 20% then you're either pretending to be on an Ethiopian diet, or you have an issue with over sensitivity of your retinas and should get it checked out asap
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] sanurocks:
This only affect night time usage with lights out or in low lit environments where you will keep your screen brightness low. Daytime usage is perfectly fine as 50% slider is not actually 50% screen brightness. So slider % remains high during day.

Its clearly mentioned that its a non issue with brightness slider in range 50% and above. So you wouldn't notice it.

And by the way if you are using that high of brightness in low lit or lights out environment then maybe you have less sensitive retina and maybe get it checked.

This will only affect people who use this for night time reading and naturally dim the screen to read comfortably. If people use normal day brightness at night this will be a non issue for them.

The main point is is this a hardware or a software issue. And i have already hypothesized why this might be happening. You can read the posts above.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] cheetah2k:
I don't think I would ever find myself in a pitch black room with just my phone and no other background light of any sort. I'm not that kinda guy :rolleyes:

If you head over to the Asus forum, this is not a new issue. Asus have declared the reddish tint is normal behaviour of the screen at high Hz, so its hardware, not software, and operating as it should. Every handset will be exactly the same. If it bothers you too much, then maybe look at the Nubia Red 3S or Xiaomi Blackshark 2 instead. For me, its a non issue as like you said, i never drop below 50% brightness, and my retinas are poor, so I would never see it.. :fingers-crossed:

This is my first Asus phone, and I'm coming from a long line of samsungs (the latest being the Note10+) and for what I do with the ROG2, its performance creams anything Samsung has ever produced.. so, when a negligible issue like red tint (don't forget Samsung had blue, sony had red also in the past) I'm willing to forgive it because 99% of the time it doesnt affect me. If you call that fanboy-ism, then so be it..
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] R2active:
Looks like, red tint in the display, issue is widespread in most of the ROG 2 phones .

Asus has confirmed the same, but refused to say, if it is a SW issue or HW issue.

So far so good. I can tell that whatever optimization you used on this rom is by far smoother than any other roms. Also it's kinda weird for me how some of the UI and apps look kinda small (?) But not that it is annoying, it's just unpleasant to see some buggy UI. All in all the rom is really smooth and it's fine looking than any other else. Keep up the good work!

The new update, v3 or Charlie, has some bugs when I first try installing it and it was stuck in a bootloop. Then I downloaded another file, which is the updated one named foxtrot and this one works and installed properly because I can tell that the launcher is very different plus the UI (I never read all the changelogs) and so far performance wise is really good and I can notice some improvement on the read/write speed of the system also there's almost no stuttering happening. Still, a really great rom

Foxtrot was a beta update, i changed the launcher because i notice some UI glitches in stock. maybe i'll return it in the next update. Thanks for your feedbacks and Enjoy the ROM:o:D

It happens that in the area where I am there is very limited data coverage.

I installed HybridRadio2016_M in system/priv-app and the radio starts, but I can't get it to find any station.

Any suggestions?

Can i customize the lockscreen?
[Samsung Galaxy J2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] CleaveGodz:
Almost up to my expectations

Hello, I found quite few bugs and issues so far, most related with the modified UI:

1. Status bar issues:

A. Entering a wifi with a sign-in and pulling down bar overlaps wifi and 4g icons. Reproducible and minor.

B. Clock positioning and it being a clickable makes the pop-up view gesture to start multiwindow unusable. Quite major to me because I rely too much on multiwindow.

C. Sometimes quick settings panel dies and can't be opened nor swiped to the left. Trying to open it brings the notifications down correctly but the settings don't move from where they are. Swiping left also pulls down the notifications, even if your finger doesn't go down a single bit. Annoying and hard to reproduce.

D. When quick settings panel dies, Wi-Fi menu in the status bar shows empty, as if there were no networks. So with all these bugs combined it's hard to toggle anything without entering settings app. Reproducible when C happens.

E. I know that touching the rightest corner locking screen is intentional, but it's way too annoying in games. Also holding it a few moments opens the shut down menu, and occasionally it freezes the phone until it reboots automatically (happened to me while writing this review 10 minutes ago :crying: )

2. Putting a locked sim card (with pin) opens the stock keypad which is missing the icons for delete and enter. Not major, but makes the UI inconsistent.

3. Random reboots and freezes. Apps force closing. Titanium backups restored into this ROM sometimes tell you the app has been incorrectly installed when you open them, telling you to install again from playstore.

4. Xposed framework utterly destroys systemUI. You have to uninstall/disable it and wipe dalvik to be able to use the phone again.

Quick review.

Strong points: battery backup (9.5/10), pie like UI (6.5/10, needs to be fixed), clean and nice launcher, reliability, and tiny zip size.

Weak points: UI bugs. Crashes. Xposed incompatibility (the worst of all). Lockscreen is ugly af. Lacks Samsung cloud/push/etc. Fonts used both in lockscreen and status bar ruin the pie clean look.

I'll give it a 6/10. I expect an update, this rom has a good future in hands. I won't like seeing it become abandoned like the rest. I'm switching roms for now because I really need xposed. Thanks and congrats for your hard work.

EDIT: my model is G532M, I forgot to put it
[Samsung Galaxy J2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Shiroyuki82:
i'm kinda been fixing some ui and cleaning the rest of vietnamese edits of it.

in the xposed, i don't really know what is the cause of it. but sad to say that i don't encounter the bugs 2 and 3 and 1 -D,E. it maybe because of the variant ur using. i'm not really sure

Giving a shot by re-basing it to Full Enigma will be made, it may fix some of the bugs. but i'm kinda pissed because v2.1 always gives me bootloop. i don't really know why

Thanks for the feedback, i won't abandon this one until the rom becomes bugless, i will bring the samsung and other back.:cool::laugh:
