OTA and recovery - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I Just got my Z00AD with Z3560 and 4GO RAM.
I had it from Gearbest.
My Rom is LRX21V.WW-ASUS_Z00A-2.15.40.13_20150506_3876_user, it seems not to be le last on... but no OTA update !!!
I guess it's because my recovery is LRX21V.CN-ASUS_A00A-2.13.40.13_20150401_8390_user .... a chineese one !!!
Am I right ?
Can I flash another recovery t have OTA update from Asus ? wich should I choose ?
Thanks to help me

Two things you can do
If your going to root and install custom roms then just root, unlock bootloader, and install twrp and flash away!
If you want stock for now then flash 551ml stock recovery

thank you, where can I find It ? How can I flaxh It ???? thx a lot

Want to flash CyanogenMod

Hey member, wanna' flash CyanogenMod on the phone.
There is lot's(and lots) of info' here on this already, though can't find the links as yet..
If any member/s could leave the links need for CyanogenMod download, and all other links, looks like i need to flash google apps too..
Also, is the 2 sim function working now on the ROM? Ideally it would be good to be back on .41.2 rather than kit kat,.
Thanks for any help.

First you need to upgrade your rom to touchwiz 4.2.2 and then you can flash kitkat or any other custom rom because you can't flash custom rom on 4.1.2 bootloader ... So if your device is not rooted, go to settings and do a software update... Or you can alternatively flash firmware from sammobile... Hope it helps..

Its better u unroot ur phone and flash official 4.2.2 firmware from samobile and root it back...because most of all the custom ROM's use 4.2.2 has their base so u can hardly find and rom which supports 4.1.2 but S there r some but if u want install cm11 based or AOSP based ROM's u should definitely need to update it to latest Andriod 4.2.2....
Good info' again, will unroot, then flash stock 4.2.2, then flash custom rom CM 11.
Thanks for your info'. I hit thanks!
Has members please got the genuine links for the CM11 flash with dual sim , and goggle app thing (all links I need basically) It's hard to find valid info'.. Want to use dual sim though! Big thanks in advance

Good job jackeagle, thanks for the link...
I know this might sound a stupid question- with the CM11 as it's still new, it's still need work done to fix a few issues, my question is, if I flash this, and root my phone, as its a custom rom CM it get's upgraded automatically , when new fixes/upgrades come out right? It's not like stock firmware rooted where i can not upgrade. Right? I mean the CM 11 gets better with time, and i dont have to keep reflashing right>???
Thanks a lot for your info/s

First u have to root ur phone and install latest recovery...After flashing this rom u have wipe cache, dalvic cache, factory reset just read instruction carefully and follow it donr skip any step has it can cause major problems or boot loop...No u will not get OTA update in CM coz its not official due to dual sim functionality being experimentally once this issue is solves completely dev's will make it official and then u may get updates via OTA..till then whenever new update is released u have to download full ROM and flash it via Recovery... before installing make backup of current ROM so that if anything goes wrong you can revet back..and its very lite below 250mb.. All the best...

Lot's of good info here... Thanks/respect.
After doing more research, I am hankering toward staying on stock, as phone is set up all good, AND not sure if I want some of the current issues on this experimental version... (Though developer doing good work) Will defo' do it when some of the issues get resolved.. Hope I didn't waste your time. Will use your infos' at a later date, when I am reflash CM11 later on..
I looked for stock 4.2.2 flash on sammobile, though there is no downloads for my location (UK) Can I use another location>? Say Germany or India? Or is that liable to soft brick my phone.. ? ? ?
Thanks to you:good:
Don't install the firmware from other region coz each region has its own setting might me bandwidth 2G or 3G so and in some regions its locked so don't try it u might end bricking u r mobile...search u r region only..

maybe: Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting? Q&A = questions and answers
it's been a while but I don't think I have updated my bootloader. you are most likely on mj5 or newer as you updated on 4.3.

Knowing which boot loader version ur on is quite tricky but if you have stock 4.3 then you are good to go don't look too much into it. If its your first custom ROM then advice will be to stick with a touch wizz based ROM there are many. But if you want note 3 features then as stated above ditto note 3 would be my choice. Root your phone(do not fret over knoxx) get the latest custom recovery( I advice twrp 2.7.0). Download ditto note 3 ROM wipe every thing ( data dalvik cashe cashe internal SD )do not wipe ext SD card. Flash rom (for more specific info read ROM op) and now plz close the thread or move this into qand a section
Regards
Happy flashing
Install phone info from play store to know bootloader and other things
Don't worry. .. since you have Knox. . You are mostly on mj9.. don't try to install anything less than 4.3 android
Ditto note 3 DN3 v4RC2 is what you need. .. go to its thread and read FAQ on post 4... and enjoy

Unlock for MM beta, is it available now?

Hi, I'm using Resurection Remix and lots of custom ROM for over a month, but no one as battery friendly and stable as stock MM. So i would like to ask can we unlock MM by now? So I can flash TWRP and backup, flash and do other things. And safe way to revert to stock 5.0 (Not fastboot flash bom-token blablabla)? I brought my Z008 to service center because of this. If there is a way, plz reply me with a link to that thread(s). Thanks in advance

Yes there is an unlock but it doesn't allow for much. Just use the forum search to find it.

Is that the "2 click one" ? I had tried that before and it didn't work for ze550ml on .69 firmware
And if i unlock sucessful, which root should I flash? The non-system or the normal (Chainfire's) one?

Questions about unlock with MM to flash custom rom

I have been reading this forum for several weeks.
My goal is to install cyanogen13.0 but unfortunately my research did not allow me to clarify several issues ...
I know you can tell me to go read and search but I have done that ... made questions on some topics ... but I still have doubts.
If someone can help me:
- Unlock bootloder
I have last MM version (4.21.40.223) how can i unlock bootloder? with the official asus app? In that case i have to downgrade to Lollipop?
Can i use this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ze...nfone2-android-6-0-beta-unlock-t3411264/page4
with 4.21.40.223?
- Twrp
Can i use 3.0.2 to flash custom romĀ“s?
I read that is not possible

Stock Rom

Hi guys. where can i down new full stock rom CQE1 for my note 4 sm-n910v.
I dont like any cook rom cuz it is so lag. Please help me. Ty guys
CQC1 is the latest odin stock - odin file I can find. This will not relock your bootloader but you have to disable ota after installation.

Here is a link to CQE1 stock but deodexed and it is a zip file that you have to flash through twrp.
