Hello, today I've received my Zenfone 2 wich came with 32GB ROM and 4 GB RAM. I got it from a Chinese website, and suprisenly it comes with Google Apps installed. Even if you make a factory reset. Even the build number says WW. But in the website they say it is a CN version. I think they have flashed it or something!
Anyway, when I installed few apps, and tried to uninstall some of them, my phone kept rebooting. This problem occures when I try to disable an app as well.
Anyone? Please help
If you going to root and install roms, then just install one of the custom stock roms or the aosp roms. If not and don't need the lte bands on the WW firmware then best to flash back to CN firmware
Same problem

Hello Kamen, I bought mine from TinyDeal as well. Honestly, never going to buy a product from them anymore! But luckly I have found a way to fix it. Download the official Zenfone 2 frimware from the website and put it on a SD Card, then flash it using a custom recovery, I used CWM Recovery to flash it (choose from external SD Card).
Now I'm running on the latest update. And everything is working fine!
It is not a WW Model, it is CN. But I changed mine to WW Firmware. By flashing both recovery and firmware to WW.

You want to install CM11 via Safestrap? If yes, I don't understand why you need IMEI backup
Hi,
I was trying to flash marshmallow ROM, but it softbricked my phone. now I can't go beyond bootloader and cwm recovery. Also, it shows a message that the phone is not rooted. What shall I do? I don't have a backup phone and it is urgent. Can somebody help?
I don't have twrp installed to restore a backup.
Is it possible that if somebody gives me a twrp img of stock marshmallow or lollipop , i can flash via fastboot?
Thanks in advance

EDIT
I HAVE DELETE THIS THREAD BECAUSE BY USING THIS METHOD PEOPLE MAY LOOSE THEIR IMEI if they don't have any efs backup ,
People apply this METHOD who has no IMEI Surely this method was only for those who already had efs backup ,
but now people thinks that it may bring IMEI,,which is not the proper way for restoring imei.
So to stop this misconception i am deleting all files and SUSPEND this thread.

MAY BE YES,YOU CAN,BUT TAKE BACKUP OF ALL PARTITION BEFORE TRY.
this persist backup is from moto g4 plus and it is working for moto g5 plus so may be it should work for g5s plus too.
but remember i am not responsible for anything if it goes wrong( but it better to take risk when nothing works )
my gut says,it should work,so if you want ,then give it a shot.
ok will try that in the evening

This guide is only for volte
akshu2697 said:
hey guys good news for you all,
i have found the solution for volte.
download persist backup from attachment(this backup is from moto g4 plus,i had restore it on my moto g5 plus and i got volte )
1)Flash stock rom with twrp or with fastboot,both will going to work.
2)Now you have to put this backup in twrp backup folder.
3)after this first you have to restore your own efs backup.
4)then restore this persist backup.
remember"do at your own risk",i am not responsible for anything if it goes wrong
this method is working for me so i am telling you all,and before do this please take your whole phone backup including every partition.
this can also be done if some one can provide our moto g5 plus persist backup,so if anyone has working volte then provide us moto g5 plus persist backup from twrp,then it is also usefull for all of us,THANK YOU

Unzip that persist file,
Put that file in your efs backup folder ,
After boot in twrp and go to restore,
Then in restore restore your efs ,you will see persist will also there ,so restore that persist after restoring efs.
In other words ,
#Unzip persist
#Open your efs backup folder of twrp in file manager
#Paste persist file in efs backup folder
#now boot in to twrp
#restore that efs ,in efs you will see efs and persist both will be there,
#so first restore efs then persist
See my attachment (how to put that file in twrp)
can someone please give a step by step guide of this method. I haven't tried anything like this so pls help me. I am on stock rom and bootloader locked. I really want to get my volte.
