Asus zenfone selfie is a fairly brilliant device for its price point. has amazing camera, decent budget specs and also a whooping 13mp selfie camera with dual-tone flash!
but what bothers me the most is that my Asus Zenfone Selfie 32gb with 3gb ram is filled with bloatware around 1GB and even after uninstalling some of the thrid party apps, zenfone still has too many worthless apps. If only this has a vanilla stock android experience, this phone can easily give a decent competition to the One Plus 2.
I know it is too soon to ask for a ROM but is there anyway that we can get a root for this device.
I also have a zenfone selfie 32GB 3GB RAM
I tried to root With zenfone root kit, it worked on my Zenfone 5 and zenfone 2.
But on zenfone selfie, it didn't work. It says something about locked device..
I'm guessing because the bootloader is locked, and if there is a way to unlock bootloader I can root with zenfone root kit
Hope there is a way to root my Asus Zenfone Selfie soon.
And for Asus zenfone 2 laser ZE500KL???

Request ASUS ZENFONE SELFIE ROOT
I also have the Zenfone Selfie
I really need root access on this system
is there any development going on on this device or do we just have to get rid of it and take something else?

I'm also waiting for a root method it.
I'm trying various methods to open the bootloader , but it still fails but found that there is a possibility adding those 4 lines to bulid.prop
ro.frp.pst=true
ro.secure=0
ro.debuggable=1
persist.service.adb.enable=1
ro.frp.pst=true / adds oem unlock the options developers
My suggestion would be an experienced programmer , change the ROM available on the website of the manufacturer and insert the build.prop commands , then we make the flash or sideload via fastboot

This device was my take as it was cheaper and almost had mixed specs from the oneplus one and two (3gb ram, 1080p display, good battery, great cameras). if only we can get a root and recovery for this, we can do wonders. if someone would please help us @xda -developers this device would rock!
and also did anyone check out if there was any development on the asus forums?
I continue to study a way to root the device , now I turned my eyes to how the LG G3 is done , we know the security restrictions Lollipop and I have a real sense of how to root the ZD551KL .
The method used by the D855 , is to copy the file to a folder supersu tmp along with the modified boot.img , so it is possible to make the img flash with supersu scripts.
So we can use the same technique to the ZD551KL , but I need the help of an expert to move on.
I know that you must enter in init.rc the code snippet that will initializing rooting and that's the problem .
How and how this should be done ???
Varies for each device?

I contacted chainfire , please ask if you can help in this endeavor , I am waiting for a response .
I did some more analysis is possible to have a positive result if you add the parameters I sent in the previous post , entering the default.prop , but when you repack the boot.img file loses 2K in size and this causes the device startup problems , I would be happy if some soul help us !!

Hi guys,
I'm trying to figure out how to unlock the bootloader of the ZE500KL, I have a full dump and I think that we can unlock it by modifying the aboot.bin file.
Tryied to decompile it, but not understand the output code at all because it is with addresses. Can someone help me?
Here the zip with decompiled files.
c file contains functions, svg are graphs of the functions that can be opened and viewed with google chrome, and dsm file is low level code I think, there are some interesting strings in it.

Have you tried what the zenfone 2 does? seeing as they are fairly similar phones http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/congrats-to-bootlocker-unlocked-t3138547

UPDATE:
Tried shakalaka method and doesn't work, copied the key in asuskey file in /factory but at reboot in bootloader nothing happens!
These phones share naming, but under the hood they are completely different. The ZF2 is using an Intel processor and the Laser is using a SnapDragon 615 ARM processor. It would be better to look at common unlocking methods for similarly spec'd devices. Asus tends to not alter to much from standard design specs released by the SoC manufacturer. This phone is also just now getting released in the U.S so support may take a while to get development picked up. Keep an eye on 23 pin's blog because he does a lot of work with varying models of Asus devices.
Any way of port to ZE551KL this official cm rom?

We have kernel source,root ,TWRP, official bootloader unlock and the only thing we need is ROM developers for zenfone lesers. However @rajlko has done great job in developing root solution for 550kl but I don't know whether he was working on any custom ROM for ze550kl.

Happy New Year XDA members ! I hope someone can help me. Generally i try to flash Kernel that Asus officially provide at their website.
The phone is unlock Bootloader, installed TWRP recovery and rooted successfully. But when i try to flash Kernel give`s me error :
Cannot find path specific " META-INF\com\google\android\update-script "
I suppose this path is for ROM so of course cant`t find it. It is a Kernel not rom.
Search a lot for this but cannot find anything.
Basically i have issue with my camera. When try to focus the whole pictures moves like stabilization is not attach and i can hear a noise clicking. It is horrible because hard to use camera and i hope to be some software/ driver issue.
Thanks a lot !

[SIZE="5"[CENTER][SIZE="6"]]First of all thank you for stopping by to check the thread and i actually need help achieving this also unlocking the MTK Secret Once and For all[/SIZE][/CENTER]
well i have been trying to port this kind of clone roms since i had the Note 3 Exynos and now i have the redmi note 4 snapdragon SD 4GB Variant <Mido>
A Couple of problems i ran into which is the kernel at the very first beginning it used to stuck at MI Splash Screen then after fixing used to reboot after splash after a lot of looking and fixing now shows boot screen and well.. we all know the DEX2OAT Error of cannot create space image and things like that and yes i did deodex both roms
----
So i almost lost hope in working on this although i wish to complete port or even boot that rom up
if anyone has knowledge with kernel work and changing mount points or a used to be a kernel porter i need your help
and if any one can help with anything even mentioning other people would be grateful and i hope god bless em
Hey guys over in the zte axon thread sorry to bug but I'm desperate lol.. I was hoping some of you guys work with a little time and tinkering can possibly be ported over to the Zenfone 3 deluxe they matchup up in specs in every way except for the ram size zf3 comes with 6/64 gb.. It even has a Oreo of course without treble and the phone is rock solid I am not a developer but I can follow instructions thoroughly so if you guys can help me develop some type of vendor partion or even a lineage 16 I will forever be grateful even if not I still will be.. Asus has also released the source code and kernel with every update if that helps anything... we also have a set of edl qfil files to fix anything so I'm willing to try whatever you throw at me Thanks hope you guys let me know something
