Asus zenfone selfie is a fairly brilliant device for its price point. has amazing camera, decent budget specs and also a whooping 13mp selfie camera with dual-tone flash!
but what bothers me the most is that my Asus Zenfone Selfie 32gb with 3gb ram is filled with bloatware around 1GB and even after uninstalling some of the thrid party apps, zenfone still has too many worthless apps. If only this has a vanilla stock android experience, this phone can easily give a decent competition to the One Plus 2.
I know it is too soon to ask for a ROM but is there anyway that we can get a root for this device.
I also have a zenfone selfie 32GB 3GB RAM
I tried to root With zenfone root kit, it worked on my Zenfone 5 and zenfone 2.
But on zenfone selfie, it didn't work. It says something about locked device..
I'm guessing because the bootloader is locked, and if there is a way to unlock bootloader I can root with zenfone root kit
Hope there is a way to root my Asus Zenfone Selfie soon.
And for Asus zenfone 2 laser ZE500KL???

I'm also waiting for a root method it.
I'm trying various methods to open the bootloader , but it still fails but found that there is a possibility adding those 4 lines to bulid.prop
ro.frp.pst=true
ro.secure=0
ro.debuggable=1
persist.service.adb.enable=1
ro.frp.pst=true / adds oem unlock the options developers
My suggestion would be an experienced programmer , change the ROM available on the website of the manufacturer and insert the build.prop commands , then we make the flash or sideload via fastboot

This device was my take as it was cheaper and almost had mixed specs from the oneplus one and two (3gb ram, 1080p display, good battery, great cameras). if only we can get a root and recovery for this, we can do wonders. if someone would please help us @xda -developers this device would rock!
and also did anyone check out if there was any development on the asus forums?
I continue to study a way to root the device , now I turned my eyes to how the LG G3 is done , we know the security restrictions Lollipop and I have a real sense of how to root the ZD551KL .
The method used by the D855 , is to copy the file to a folder supersu tmp along with the modified boot.img , so it is possible to make the img flash with supersu scripts.
So we can use the same technique to the ZD551KL , but I need the help of an expert to move on.
I know that you must enter in init.rc the code snippet that will initializing rooting and that's the problem .
How and how this should be done ???
Varies for each device?

I contacted chainfire , please ask if you can help in this endeavor , I am waiting for a response .
I did some more analysis is possible to have a positive result if you add the parameters I sent in the previous post , entering the default.prop , but when you repack the boot.img file loses 2K in size and this causes the device startup problems , I would be happy if some soul help us !!

God enlighten you so that we can find a way to root for Zenfone Selfie.
Because no one has presented ROOT solution for
Zenfone Selfie, Zenfone Laser, both with Snapdragon
I have ZX551ML (Zenfone ZOOM). Want to upgrade to MM.
Check images for more detailed specification.
I want to perform an absolutely clean install to MM.
Install TWRP and Xposed..
Please guide me to right articles/steps and files to continue ahead..
The existing device is rooted and running lollipop, I want to have MM with root
I can reach Recovery mode!
It's been more than 14 hours now since I tried what all I know & could think of doing after reading on the internet.
Please help me. Please..
Can you try following this whole thread ?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/development/rom-cleanstock-mm-z00aww-4-21-40-144-t3492278
There's a video link (Portuguese but very much understandable ) with the full tutorial (including MM bootloader upgrades and bootloader unlock)
Hope this helps!

Hello,
Thanks for your reply.
@GuilhermeXtreme is an excellent guy for his valuable support.
He tried his best to help me install CleanSTOCKLL and CLEANStockMM on my Asus Zoom device, but apparently the ROM supported by him is for ZOOA (ZE551ML)
My device is Z00X (ZX551ML)
Asus did a huge mistake (I assume) in naming roms for 2 different devices same.
On installing above ROMs which you have specified, mobile works fine but Mobile Network and Camera will not.
Infact @GuilhermeXtreme tried his best to help me for 2 days, to fix the issue.
At present I am on Stock Lollipop with stock recovery
(unrooted device)
Regards,
Posted here as no one is answering in Original Sub Forum ,
Hello , I am a Noob ,
I have a few questions ,
My Device
Xperia Neo V
MT11i
Android Version:
2.3.4
Build:
4.0.2.A.0.62
Kernel:
2.6.32.9.-perf ....... [did not write the entire thing]
I never updated it ,
Now , I want
1.Make a Complete Recoverable Backup of my Current OS (2.3.4)
backup my original firmware , and stock OS . So that if in future i want to go back to it , i can just use that to go back . (i hope i am able to make you guys understand)
As far as my knowledge goes , i should need TWRP Recovery , or CWM Recovery or something similar . Correct me if i am wrong .
2.Unlock the Boot-loader and Root it.
3.Install Last Officially available update , Manually and Try it out
Which is the last officially updated version available ?
4.If i Like it then OK , if not then
i will Install other Custom ROMs or CM13
Q1. i heard that Many Custom ROMs dont have FM and Camera Functions ?
Which Custom ROM has all the functionality as the Stock One ?
and is based on most updated version of android ?
5.KERNEL.
I just CANT understand this one , please help me understand it
Does any of the above need the kernel to be replaced ? by some other kernel ?
I dont have much knowledge of kernel
...................................
Other Questions:
1.Why we are Flashing both .562 kernel .587 kernel one by one ?
Shouldn't we need only one ?
2. Can i update to Latest ICS via PC Companion and then root it ?
Will it affect anything ?
3.
Quote:
Disadvantages
1. Warranty is void..gone.. ---------- No Problem
2. You cannot update using PCC or SUES( if you try them..then u'll get a message saying that the software is modified and it wont proceed) ---------- No Problem since no update will come in future
3. No more DRM(Digital Rights Management)..things like Trackid, music like..etc - I like TrackID , but TrackID works with any mobile isnt it ? so what will change ? in Track ID ?
And which Custom ROMs require Unlocked Bootloader ?
Does CM Require it ?
Please help how can i do these and please educate me about kernel too .
P.S.
I tried posting this before in the [NEO/V/L Q and A THREAD]HELP THREAD (N00B friendly) Thread but No One Replied
Very Sorry i posted it here
i already tried the other place
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...nswer-t3658062
I (still) own three of these phones: one MT11 and two MT15 models. They were good cheap phones. Sony is my favourite. Highly customizable. The dedicated forums are still available I think. The problem is that these phones don't have the ability to run modern applications. All the developers have moved on. If you don't need it as a daily use phone, it would be good to use it as a learning tool for flashing roms and skinning it. It takes a lot of time to read through all the posts. But the info is all there. Maybe someone will answer your questions sooner or later. Good luck with it.
U jst need to unlock ur bootloader and flash a custom kernel with recovey and flash ur desired rom ( there r some good one life miui v5 etc and aosp developement was prety good too at its time)
If u can manage to find the ftf files of orignal stock roms 2.3 & 4.04 u dont need to worry about any backup u can always roll backup to stock.
As far as my opinion go 2.3 is the best rom with good backup and smooth os battery suks on other roms.
Hope that answers ur questions
Currently my main problem is that the PC cant recognize the Mobile (Xperia Neo V)
the drivers that automatially got installed never gets installed without error and i still cant find out the reason , after a few tries now the dialogue box of installing drivers does not appear at all ,and the PC cant recognize my phone ,
Where can i get the best working drivers for Neo V ? (MT11i) ?
If any one of you have it please give a working set of drivers for PC Smartphone connectivity
and another odd thing that i noticed is that
the PC Companion that comes with the phone and gets installed when connected is
Basically as follows
Folders:
Languages - (28 Folders Inside)
Drivers - EMPTY
Graphics (2 Files - Graphics.zip, NewUI.zip)
Files:
Autorun.inf
Startme.exe
Is it same for you guys too ?
Why is the DRIVERS folder Blank ?
I think it should not be blank

There should be a drivers folder in the flashtool folder. Give THIS thread a read too as you're trying to run before you've even learned to walk.
Ok. I know this root and other methods are all from old posts but please any help will he welcome.
Ok lets start with basics: i rooted my phone with dirtysanta using the twrp they supplied with super su linked HERE
Now i have the lg v20 H990 single sim (with the name elsa) Nougat 7
Now im experiencing the issies listed in the thread including the video camera not working and a random kernel crash.... But i heard there might be a fix via a new kernal.
Now heres my question...with the setup i have now. Can i follow THIS tutorial btp flash a stock oreo 8 on my phone with mk20000 kernal..
Will this fix my camera issue???
I heard i need latest twrp...yet i saw in the thread usb otg is bugged....is it still so???
Or can i just use twrp that i have now????
That method uses masikg or what ever yet i have superSU how do i change over and when (using that method) can i stil use superSU or is it a must for masikg
I really do hope someone can help....i need camera and i need oreo...i also need usb otg but i will offer it up for the use of camera..
Apologies for bad tiping...i am typing this before a meeting so i am in a big hurry..will correct any spelling / bad typing later
PS: PlEase help me
No help or reply????

https://www.asus.com/in/Phone/ZenFon...Desk_Download/
I want to install and try Custom ROM's.
I'm a newbie and don't have any idea regarding the necessary tools required for those installations.
Can anyone provide me the instructions or steps in details on how to install custom ROM on my phone?
Thank you.

For me, custom roms on Android Pie are much more stable than custom roms on Android 10, Better try those roms. Also you can try flashing those roms that you are interested and make some time to explore its features if it suits to your likes :good:

I think you were using THE OFFICIAL ANDROID 10 BETA. Try rolling back to pie. Go to the official website and search for "downgrade to 9" on the firmware list and follow the instructions.
And, you unlocked the bootloader using which method, the official method or unofficial method ?
I mean, did you download the unlocker from the official website or some where else ?
