Hi guys, its been a few days since I joined here. [Read : I am a noob/newbie in Android related things, and I desperately need help.]
In July (maybe, I forgot), I rooted my ZE550KL, using exactly this method from the website of www-asus-zenfone-com. :cyclops:
Now that, my android seems aged, I wanna shift/upgrade to Marshmallow/Nougat, be it Stock or Custom ROM.
Few days earlier, I unlocked my Bootloader using the Unofficial Bootloader Unlocking Method, as found on this Forum.
I also installed TWRP Recovery, and I tried to flash CM-14.1 [7.1] Nougat-Nightly through TWRP, but, unfortunately, resulted in Status 7 Error. I tried to solve the problem by removing "asserts" section in Update-Binary text file, in the build. But, again, I seemingly worsened the problem; as I got Status 6 error thereby. So, I did factory reset, and I still retain root.
Now, today as I am going through the Official thread of CM 14.1 Nougat, I saw numerous users reporting Bugs of connection issues (something like Wifi to Mobile Data switch problem), which I would like to OBVIOUSLY AVOID, as I want a stable, bug-less build. So, I am thinking to go with the last snapshot build of CM 13.0 Marshmallow.
Here comes the my question : " SHOULD I FLASH CM 13.0 MM -- OR -- STOCK ROM OF MM -- OR -- RESURRECTION REMIX MM ROM?? "
In any of the case, please guide me through the process of doing so.
And, if I have to flash CM 13.0 MM, what would I do if I encounter Status Error 7 again ? :crying:
first you have to upgrade it to marshmallow using stock rom. Then you can flash cm13 or cm14.1

While flashing CM13 if that error 7 includes "asus.verify trustzone failed..." Then its bcoz of need to update modem files (LP to MM)....
Easy way to overcome it is..... download MM modem ZIP from second post of OFFICIAL CM13 thread (120MB) and flash it using TWRP (If you are using twrp).... THEN you can flash cm13 hopefully without error 7....
If you are using stock recovery then Either u can flash twrp and use above method... OR... Download ASUS ZE550KL firmware zip file from ASUS site (1.6GB) .... Put it in SDCARD... Then boot to stock recovery and use "apply update from sdcard" option... select ZIP... Alongwith firmware Ur Modem files will also update to MM... and now u can flash twrp and then cm13...
sorry.. I know if i am lazy to post direct links...
Try it.. I will help if i can

We have both stable RR and CM13.
CM is simple and clean and less loaded.... RR is most feature rich Custom rom we have alongwith stability...
Rest depends on what type of user, u are... If u like trying differnt ROMs... Start with CM13...
If u just want to have a feature rich longtime setup, U can use RR directly without wasting time... It is based on CM, So it obviously have everything CM has.... :good:

I have tried almost all the lineage 7.0.1 based ROM except nuclear ROM and zui 2.5 and had faced some issues like can't select the default calling SIM...
I have a question, on nuclear ROM installing instruction there is a point, u have to come from cm 13... As I had cm 12.1 stock ROM, I didn't try that...
Please tell me, are all the nougat ROM need this condition? Or only that rom?
And also tell me, which gapps is best...
I'm using super just to have the inbuilt pixel launcher and dialler but having Google camera issue... I had tried aroma before just to choose what I need and what I don't... But it didn't work on recovery...
And should I try zui 2.5... Is it good means can call with both the SIM?
I am running resurrection remix v5.8.4 android version 7.1.2 on my j5 2016. Since the camera quality of this rom's camera app is completely trash i considered flashing the stock samsung camera app. My question is: is this possible or will i get in trouble and by that i mean boot loops or incompatibility problems. Is it safe to do so?
Hey there I faced the same problem I tried installing stock camera apps but didn't worked then I found an update resurrection remix v5.8.5 in which all the issues r being resolved and my camera is working fine and also the flash light issue .but the only problem of all the resurrection remix is that it don't support volte. If u like to flash the update I would like to share the link of the new update of it .

Hi,
Recently after updating to the latest build of the Dirty Unicorns ROM my Google Camera stopped working all of a sudden, I thought it was a build.prop but HAL3 was enabled. I switched ROMs but still couldn't get it to work on any ( I tried RR, Lineage, CrDroid and AEX). On Stock it works fine after enabling HAL3.
I tried clean flashing oreo stock and then flashing a custom rom and clean flashing nougat and then a custom rom but none worked, if anyone knows how to fix this please tell!
Regards,
Kamefrede
