Nobody will be able to compile CM on the ZF2 without the bootloader being unlocked.
The phone shipped with a locked bootloader, so we will have to wait until ASUS/Intel gives us the unlock tool.

Yeah hope so

[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.

few question about stock & custom rom.

Hello guys, I'm new here (bought zenfone about 2 days ago ^^) now I have CM, I'm interested which custom/stock rom you suggest for daily use? more battery/performance? I have asus zenfone ZE550ML.
Thank you in advice and don't be a rude ^^ You can delete this thread tomorrow

ARE ALL FONEPAD OFFICIALLY BOOTLOADER LOCKED AND NOW DEAD
NEVER SAW A CM FOR THIS
I DID TRY UNOFFICIAL zenfone METHOD WITH NO Luck !!!!

just wondering

Since I'm already using cm13 when cm14 arrives all we need to do is clean install along with 7.0 ×86 gapps ,,my device is the Asus zenfone 2 ze551ml zooa 64gb
Maybe we should wait till it arrives

How to enable camera2api without root and unlocked bootloader? Like Maxpro M1?

Is their any way to enable camera2api without unlocked bootloader and rooting the device just like the Zenfone Max Pro M1?
This device comes with camera2api enabled out of the box... No modifications needed

That appears to be from Zenfone 5, talking about the 5Z here... 5Z has legacy... But does that matter? Gcam is fully functional...

I tried different versions of gcam but none of them worked well..the one that i have doesn't have features like hdr portrait RAW etc..the image quality is basically the same as stock camera app
Man this phone is just not getting any attention from the developers...hope it does...it has potential though..

Can you please share a link of working Gcam for Zenfone 5z?
I am using gcam with 5z it's working but with view options..
Hell no!! limited support only, Zenfone max pro m1 can be changed to level3 support easily with hal3 true using fastboot adb.
