I have changed fingerprint as well to WW

---------- Post added at 03:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 PM ----------

Will try this out, thanks
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] stanchobs:
Can i install from 16.0631.1908.12 to this FULL version with update or i must have 1910.44 version ? Have fingerprint to WW.

I just tryed and its working :) Thanks for update !
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] zohaibshafijutt:
What do u mean by put on root.

Which folder are u talking about ?

Just downloaded the full rom.

I am currently on 1910.44 and rooted.

Will I be able to tay rooted after update ?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
Download full rom, place in root of storage, reboot, update. Don't select restart, select later. Open magisk manager, click to install magisk, select after ota, force install ok then reboot. Job done, root maintained
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] gilsol:
:( I forgot about the magisk part and rebooted losing root in the process.

Any way to extract the boot image so I can patch it with magisk? It do I need to wait for the RAW ROM?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
Well I have just asked over on the Vietnam Telegram group if there's an ETA on the patched root img. Hopefully I'll get a response soon and will let you know ASAP. But yeah, once that's released you can go ahead and flash it for root using the cmd "fastboot flash boot xxxx.img"

Hopefully you can/don't mid waiting a couple of days for it to be released - until then, you'll just have to be unrooted :(

I'll keep you posted...
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] gilsol:
Thanks a lot, I have been researching this a bit and I'm going to try to get the boot image from the fulll ROM payload.bin. there are tools for this, if I'm successful than magisk can take care of the rest.

I'll keep you posted as well.

:good:
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
Just move the zip update from downloads folder and paste it into the main area where other folders are stored, like downloads/music/ringtones etc etc... Don't place it in any folder, just place it in the same location as those other folders...

From there, restart the phone and when update is detected, choose to update but DON'T select to reboot once it is done. Instead, open Magisk Manager and select 'install' for Magisk (not magisk manager), then select 'Install to Inactive Slot (After OTA). Install it and reboot. That's it, root will be maintained :good:
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] carlaldous:
Hi pls help. Even though i put it in internal storage and restart it. My phone cant detect an update. My firmware is 1910.44 and tencent fully converted to WW with WW fingerprint
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
Did you download the full rom or the small ota? If it's the small ota you need to rename it to exact name of the full ota, or just download the full... I went for the full rom. Did you restart the phone after?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] carlaldous:
I downloaded the full rom and restart it many times but the phone doesnt detect the update. :/
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
Hmm, can you double check your fingerprint is changed with device info HW, it will say under system

Had a thought, have you downloaded it more than one time, the name of the file may have been changed... can you take a screenshot and post it here showing the file and where you placed it?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] dennis96411:
Does this keep TWRP installed?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] carlaldous:
I downloaded it using laptop and copied it in internal storage. Im pretty sure that my fingerprint is WW. I cant seem to post a screenshot as i newly made my account here in xda.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
I don't have TWRP installed, so can't say for sure, but i highly doubt it, you'd have to follow the thread here for keeping TWRP

---------- Post added at 06:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:43 PM ----------

Have you checked with the app I linked you to see if fingerprint is changed?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] carlaldous:
Yes. This is the code given by the app.

asus/WW_I001D/ASUS_I001_1:9/PKQ1.190414.001/16.0631.1910.44-0:user/release-keys
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
Well this is strange, assuming you're definitely placing the zip file (full rom - 2.2GB) in the root of internal storage (not in a folder at all), can you check the end of the zip name to make sure it hasn't been downloaded twice and has renamed the zip to something like UL-ASUS_I001_1-ASUS-16.0631.1910.64-1.1.253-user_2.zip

The file name should be exactly UL-ASUS_I001_1-ASUS-16.0631.1910.64-1.1.253-user.zip
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] carlaldous:
Yes, i doubled check everything and this is really frustating. :rolleyes:
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] gilsol:
Hello again,

So i managed to do this solo (why wait for someone else :) )

All it took was to install Python, and then use a ready script (payload dumper) to extract all img files from the OTA payload.bin.

Then the supreme took that is magisk did the rest and I have a patched boot.img which i flashed and root is up.

Do you want the patched image? to share with others here if anyone needs it? too big to just upload here.

I'd be happy to assist in such matter, while i'm not a developer i do know my way around.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
Well this is most odd. You may have to wait a few days for the RAW rom to be released and update that way using the Flashall_AFT.cmd...

There have been some random issues with various devices not behaving the same as other, supposedly, identical Asus devices - perhaps this is one of those random occasions :(

---------- Post added at 07:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 PM ----------

Excellent news, and nice one for the mission... Yeah, by all means, share the img!! Do you have a mega account? If not, pm me for my password (there's no private stuff there, just Asus stuff and Mi9...), you can upload it there...
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] carlaldous:
Thats also what i suspected. I flashed again the 1910.44 usingthe flashall_aft.cmd hoping that it would fix the problem. Does asus post also the raw files in their site?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
It appears not. I always just get/download from links on Vietnam Telegram group... I check regularly, so will let you know when the RAW is available...
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
First off, many thanks indeed to [MENTION=2723555]gilsol[/MENTION] for rooting and providing the tested root boot img for 1910.64

Perhaps the OP [MENTION=526338]cloud1[/MENTION] could update the OP to include this link for the root boot img...

[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] amageek:

[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] tnbt:
Download an app called drm info from play store, open and check the fingerprint version.

Raw is currently being uploaded on Vietnam telegram via mega, will update when it's there :)
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] KaBow33:
how you do that? can you explain to me
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] marian daciu:
Hi, I downloaded the full zip file, put it in the root of phone, reboot, prompt for update,ok 100% updated,from here not doing reboot,go to Magisk APK and click on installing on inactive sloot after OTA.

Magisk prompt for reboot, reboot and that's it all.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] srk_srinivas:
Thanks for the Update. I have put the zip file in the root directory. Before restarting, it detected the the update file. and updated while the phone is on. after that it rebooted. everything is intact.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Son-j:
I am on 44 with WW fingerprint. I only downloaded the FOTA, renamed it to the full image. Then used the default file manager to transfer it to the root directory of the phone. After reboot, system detected the update and from there it successfully updates to 64. :)

Note that I am not rooted. I unwittingly unrooted my phone when I went to change the fingerprint from CN to WW.

I wonder what's the extra use of the rooted version for you guys. Is it really necessary? I can't root my phone because that would mean unlocking again the bootloader which will practically erase everything.

I wished I flashed twrp for rog phone 2 when I changed from CN to WW. :/

---------- Post added at 04:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:59 PM ----------

Update: it erased my freaking FINGERPRINTS!!! HASSLE!

Thanks for the update, updated successfuly :)
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] blueblur:
I can confirm that using the full WW fw works by placing the file in the root directory. I am fully updated to the latest version. Thanks!

8gb/128gb Tencent CN converted to WW w/ WW fingerprint. Passes safetynet!
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Son-j:
Would you know what's the difference in using the full vs the fota?

I'm also on ww fingerprint

Also, what's the difference between full and raw?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
If you are on ww .44 then then the FOTA will be smaller in size for you, you can update from from .44 to 65 using small FOTA. But if you are on an older rom like 1910.35 or previous then you need to flash the full rom ota to get the full update.. hope this clears thing up
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Son-j:
Super helpful man! Thanks :)

How to change model number of my ROG phone 2?

I have the Tencent version converted to WW with fingerprint but the model number shows as ASUS_I001DE. I want to change this to ASUS_I001DC so I can unlock max graphics in BDM. Anyone knows quickest way to do this and can explain here?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] JazonX:
What's BDM?

To change the model number, You need root access.

It's in build.prop - Entry is ro.product.model=ASUS_I001D

Change it to whatever you want.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Kantana:
Yep I already worked that out but in the build.prop it only refers to the model as ASUS_I001D but the model number will show as ASUS_I001DE to other apps. I want to amend this to show ASUS_I001DC instead.

ASUS_I001DC is the WW 12GB model and the ASUS_I001DE is the WW 8GB model as far as I can work out. Anyone know where the C and E suffix is stored?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Bayramm:

Hey Cloud1, first of all thanks for all the work you've clearly put in. I just got my Rog Phone 2 Ultimate and am wanting to root it. What I"m reading on the site is a little confusing. When you say "The safest way to update without losing anything is to download the 2.2gb full firmware file on your device then move it to root using the built in file manager. Once you have moved it restart your device and follow the upgrade instructions" Here's my question, is what your suggesting an firmware upgrade and that's all it is??? I'm asking because I'm already on 16.0631.1910.64, so I'm thinking I don't need to run that, however I do need some help on how to get root and twrp if you have a minute or two to help. I see a link to a root file but been on XDA long enough to know better than to just assume flashing it will give me root so I'm doing what everyone should do is to ask you to please provide a bit more documentation. I'd like to get my new phone rooted and setup but I also don't want to do something really stupid and lose a great device.

Thanks

Krissy

[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] xhanty:
Hello everyone. Today I got my rog 2 tencent edition (which came from the U.K. with a friend to Turkey). It seems the seller converted my phone into ww 1908.12-0 firmware but my fingerprint is still cn (widevine is L1 atm if that matters). Now these are what I want to end up with; ww fingerprint, root access, latest updated firmware, and maybe twrp too. There are many guides here i know but i dont know which order to follow (first unlockbootloader, or first update, then finger or then what etc.)

Can someone guide me what to do from where i am (1908.12ww, cn fingerprint), which guides should i follow in what order? Thanks in advance, sorry for the same reply in all posts, im commenting this everywhere cuz i am in emergent need.

Hello, i did follow a guide here to change my fingerprint to ww without rooting (i have a tencent that came with ww rom 1908_12 but cn fingerprint) and i did it (now hwinfo shows ww fingerprint in both bootimage and vendor) but from here i don't know how to update. I tried to download the 1910 rom from asus and put it in the root folder but when i restart nothing happens, clearly i'm missing something important.

It's the first time i try to do something like this, can anyone help? Thanks

Ps: Sorry my bad, the problem is that i don't have root access so i can't place the update in the root. Now i'm not sure what to do to root my version (1908_12) before attempting to update
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] shivok:
Root term has 2 (totally irrelevant between them) definitions:

a)Root access, translating to gain administrative rights for your device

b)Root directory/folder, translating to the default/main directory of your device

In your occasion you are talking about the root folder (b), this has nothing to do with the root access (a)

The root directory of a Windows PC is C:/ for example. The root directory of your phone is the directory which includes your files such as Gallery, Music, Downloads etc. in which you can have access with a file manager app. So simply just throw the update zip in that directory and restart your phone, apparently you don't need root access for that process.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] C1786:
Thanks for your answer, however, if that is the case, i actually have the update file in my gallery, music etc directory but when i restart my phone nothing happens. Should i unlock the bootloader maybe? or that's a completely unrelated thing?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] shivok:
No you don't need to do anything like bootloader unlocking and such, actually you have to relock your bootloader if you haven't already. I have no clue why it doesn't prompt you to update since you have changed the fingerprint to WW. Check this video out, it shows exactly how it is done

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WFDOOtlnqiw

Rog Phone 2 from China with WW Rom and WW Fingerprint

Hello everyone,

i bought a ROG Phone2 global version from China in Germany. I have tried to install Android 10. Unfortunately it did not work. I always get the message

"Update failed". I tried with the last Android 9 version in vain.

Unfortunately the phone does not react on anything. The bootloader cannot be unlocked via the tool or fastboot, I always get an error.

I followed the instructions from the XDA Forum.

I hope someone has some advice for me.

Some info about my device:

See jpg

Thx in advance

Best Regards
