[Q] How to flash kernel for zenfone 2? - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I see the kernel for Zenfone 2 on the global ASUS webside(3.12) is higher than mine (3.10) although my FW is latest 2.13.40.13, but the ASUS support confirmed that: it is for developers only and is not flash file.
Does any one know how to build the *.img from the newest kernel?
I think the kernel will affect to the difference regions. And someone report that: Zenfone 2 is not compatible with some 3G, 4G networks on the world.

[Z00D]ZE500CL Bootloader/Dev Situation

What is the developing situation for our 'small' zenny?
Does we need the solution to unlock bootloader or it's already unlocked?
Does we have a recovery?
Does we have a custom rom?
Sorry 4 my bad english, but im italian :fingers-crossed:
I am interested in this phone too. I am deciding whether to buy it but I want to be able to unlock the bootloader.
Since I don't have it, did anyone try the method for the other Zenfone 2 models on this ?

It doesn't have the same CPU. It has the older gen Atom Z2560. I presume you'd have to go to the Asus ZenFone 5's threads to ask this. Maybe their custom ROM will work on this little guy.
Nothing that works on the ZenFone 2 works on the Zenfone Z550CL. << Edit, sorry.

If you are stating about the ZE551ML and 550ML, every custom rom works on the 550ML but change the resolution and it works perfectly fine.

Yes, saw original before you edited, however, no one as far as I know have tried the methods of unlocking the bootloader, rooting and installing custom roms from the Zenfone 2 550/551 or the Zenfone 5 on the 500CL so it could work and nobody knows.
Same was happening with 550ML before someone tried out the unlocking method and roms from the 551ML.

It won't work though because the CPU is entirely different.
Like it's the old Atom Z2560 all the Zenfone 2s have the Z3560 or Z3580, that's why it won't work at all whatsoever.
The ZenFone 5 is the forum you have to refer to because it has the same CPU in the 500CL.
I believe it's been called a "Rebrand" before.

Unlocked bootloader Android 6

So say install stock asop Android 6 with Gapps on Asus zenfone 2 with an unlocked bootloader. What has happened to any of all you with your device? Was the os bootlooped or any other issues I need to beware of?
You can say goodbye to your phone...
Marshmallow isn't ready for the Zenfone 2 yet, it has an Intel X86 processor in it, most other phones use ARM...
Do it and you will have a brick...
Actually there is AOSP build of Android 6.0 for this device,
you can find it at http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/development/rom-android-surce-project-t3287218
and if stock meant google stock aosp build then i agree with you.
i have not used it so cant say how stable/usable it is atm, however there is also cm13 build as well
Thread closed per OP request.

On my zenfone 2, twrp-3.0.2-0-Z00A.img is not working and quite a few other versions as well. My phone was on lollipop, android version 5.0.

Hello Eagle-no1,
I have the same tablet, and looking for Custom ROMs for it since 6-8 months now. So far found nothing, at least not for "Global" version of it.
Mine is the M2-801L model, with the latest official B208 ROM installed on it (Android 6.0).
If you need any details on official ROMs, check my other posts on that topic.
Custom ROMs for this tablet seem to be a pain in the back side, because of the Kirin 930 - official explanation (where the same CPU is on the other Huawei models like Honor P8 or X2 and still lots of custom ROMs are available for those) - not sure what would be the unofficial reason if any...
Hope this helps anyhow.
Have a nice day.
Kind Regards.

Questions about whyred with MIUI 9.5.19.0

Hey all,
I have a Xiaomi Redmi 5 Pro (whyred) Global version 4GB with MIUI 9.5.19.0 and after searching all threads I still have some doubts.
1. Is possible to unlock bootloader in this version?
2. If I unlock the bootloader:
2.1. will I be able to lock it again?
2.2. will I lose the FInd my phone feature?
2.3. will I lose the Fingerprint unlock feature?
2.4. will a custom ROM provide me the Find my phone and Fingerprint features if I lose them in the stock ROM?
3. If I unlock the bootloader will I be able to flash custom kernels and ROM?, remember MIUI 9.5.19.0.
4. It seems that QC3 is working for some users, but is it safe? Then which charger should I choose QC3 or QC2?
5. If I purchase a QC3 or QC2 charger should I also purchase a new data cable or the stock one it's that good?
6. Some custom ROMs have the tag Official. How can they be official if they are custom?
7. Some custom ROM has the tag OTA. What it means, that I'm able to get OTA updates from Xiaomi or that the custom ROM developers provide them.
Thank you very much !!
1 Yes
2.1 Yes
2.2 Maybe
2.3 No
2.4 Yes (you can use Google's android device manager service)
3 Yes
4 Our device supports QC 2.0 but SD636 willsupports QC 3.0 , with qc 2.0 or qc 3.0 charger you will hardlyget noticeable charging time difference
5 stock USB cable is enough
6 Official means ROM is coming from trusted source,this doesn't mean unofficial build is not trust worthy both are good.. only difference is you can download official builds from official website and unofficial build can be foundin androidfilehost website or from Google drive
7. OTA means over the air update . It will comes from custom ROM developer,just like MIUI software update you can download custom ROM OTA update and install it automatically
HI,

Stop spamming forum. 1 thread is more than enough. Spamming same thing in 4 threads is against the rules.
