Hi,
my "old" moto g 2014 broke few days ago and now i need a new smartphone.
Since i can spend max 200€ there are really few options and i was thinking about hte Asus Zenfone 2 Laser ZE500KL [the one with the Snapdragon 410] (200€ here)
But I know no one who has it and i have lot of question:
can i root it? there is a "scene" support?
It has a "cheap plastic" feel?
How long the battery last?
Is the screen good enough?
Any downside?
It's weak?
it's "scratch-friendly"?
You will suggest another phone?
Thanks a lot!

Root for now will be hard because I can't access the bootloader. Probably needs other root methods that aren't discovered yet. It actually has a premium feel to it and has good build quality. Battery life is good. I keep my mobile data on + smart power saving feature and it really helps. It has Gorilla Glass 4 which is the latest I think. But still it's better to add screen protection to be sure. As per performance it's all smooth on light to moderate tasks with occasional stuttering when having 5+ apps open. (Probably due to killing some tasks to free RAM)
I plan on creating custom ROMS and kernels for myself if we get to unlock it's bootloader but I can release it if there's not enough devs.
Thanks a lot for your answer.
I thought root would have been easy since Asus released the kernel source.
Sad to be wrong.
Ram could not gave me more problem then my old Moto G since it has double the amount. My worries were more about the Zen UI being laggy (I always used cyanogenmod and nearly stock android, I have no experience with custom UI)
There are different phone you suggest for the same price tag or this is one of the best in his range?
Thanks!
Zen UI is no laggy, it works very well.
Yes as much as ASUS puts bloatware zenui is smooth. And you can also uninstall/disable preloaded apps. For me the only downside on ze500kl is we don't know how long it is gonna get updated and how development will progress. Other than that it is a solid buy. I also thought it's gonna be easy to develop because of released kernel sources but still we can't place a custom kernel in it without flashing.
Pulling it out of my ass, but can we dump boot.img and recovery.img? The bootloader is locked?
Trough adb we can boot a custom recovery without flashing (adb boot myrecovery.img) and if we get a really simple recovery to work we can push supersu.apk in System and get root access.
I read that other People rooted others snapdragon 410 using this way
unable to find any recovery.img in full firmware or in kernel.
not able to pull from adb.
at present we have no custom recovery, neither any developer seems to help
I'm not really expert in android devolopmente but i'll take a look when i'll get it
we will wait
I'll ask here to not make a new topic.
Someone with a ze500kl can make an Antutu benchmark?
Thanks a lot!

recovery is a patched boot.img, and the patch is present in OTA package. (at least in 118)
although I can't ensure manual patched recovery is same as in phone,
it can directly boot from bootloader and is no need to flash.
recovery is attached. (it's not a flashable zip)

sorry for my poor english.
Please can anyone tell me what is better in terms of battery life between zenfone 2 ze550ML and zenfone 2 Laser ze550KL ?
Asus Zenfone 2 laser
Why is Clash of clans lagging a lot on my Asus Zenfone 2 Laser(Z550KL)??
Have cleared the RAM cache as well, did factory reset and all. But no use. Any one having the same issue?? :crying:
Need a good solution.
Thanks

I think the design is a downgrade compared to the previous model
The specs though are really good
I like that it still has 1080p display, that means less battery consumption
5.5-inch 1080p touchscreen
Snapdragon 808 SoC with hexa-core CPU
3GB of RAM
64GB of storage
21 MP rear camera with dual-tone flash
8 MP selfie shooter
4G LTE, dual-SIM functionality
3,500 mAh battery
Android 5.1.1 Lollipop
Anyone knows the price tag?
Anyone knows its price?
Sent from my SM-N910F using XDA Free mobile app
i guess it will be over $300 according to the official.
It was just announced and presented.
top model with 64GB pre-order in china CNY 2,999 about 442 EUR
and 32GB CNY 2,499 about 369 EUR
nice package, but price so so.

I was about to purchase the phone until this: resellerratings[dot]com /store/FastCardTech
Where can i get the full specs for the Lenovo Vibe X3? I want to get more details.
according to head-fi this phone has some serious audio hardware. and as they so rightly say, the hardware isn't all that matters, it's also the implementation of said hardware. i can't find any reviews on this phone anywhere with regards to its audio, such as volume levels, whether the sabre dac functions outside the stock music app, or anything else. is this a good phone as an alternative to the v10? there's no xda entry yet, and if it has similar pains of "no outside-stock-music-app" dac support, then how's about a hack? details people!
I have found this http://support.lenovo.com/fr/fr/products/phones/vibe-series/x3/downloads/ds105747
Maybe this can help for custom firmware on the X3a40 (which is the international version).

I have sold me old Note 3 N9005 and bought this Lenovo Vibe X3 , will reach me by tomorrow .... but it is disappointing to see there's thread/section for it here... however, u can root the device from the following link ...
http://pidapso.com/how-to-root-lenovo-vibe-x3/
OR
http://www.osroots.com/how-to-easily-root-lenovo-vibe-x3-smartphone/
And developers plz create a thread and at least help us remove unnecessary lenovo apps by installing the stock rooted rom minus bloatware ....
I tried with Framaroot, but it doesn't work for me.
ONe of the first hacks to try would be to port the LEnovo FM app to this devices ..hoping that the hardware supports this
I got mine 2 days back.
I can confirm that on Indian variant (x3a40) the bootloader is locked.
The simple fastboot oem unlock command couldn't unlock it.
Also, I was unable to root it using any of the usual tricks or any of the guides currently available.
I will dig more and let you guys know if anything changes.

Hello all
I've read loads of articles but can't seem to get a straight answer or find the relevant boot/recovery img
Is there a way to flash WW (specifically the latest official WW_V1.16.40.1524) firmware to replace CN on a ZE601KL.
If not is there a method to flash working Gapps. Failing that I might be convinced to go with Custom ROM.
If anyone was successful with any of the above on the ZE601KL CN version please let me know and point me to any files i would need, would be much appreciated.
I've been sent the CN version of the ZE601KL which had Google services working but the phone kept turning off/not booting so I flashed the latest FW CN_V1.16.40.1338
I'm a bit hesitant at the moment to experiment too much and I quite like the current CN firmware, camera is much improved from the original FW installed just no Gapps. Bought the phone from Gearbest who did refund me $100 and I got to keep the phone for the inconvenience so at the moment a working phone is better than a bricked one.
Many Thanks

CN versions has a slightly smaller /system partition which doesn't allow to flash WW firmware
You have to flash a "custom" /system if you want gapps

Thanks Luca I'll have a look but on ithe CyanogenMod site it states teZE601KL is not supported but I might just take that gamble.
To paparas64, I updated the FW since mine would shut down for no reason. this still happens but not as often.
If yours doe not switch off automatically don't update FW this voids warranty even with official rom. They have somehow loaded google to work on the FW provided. I'm not sure they stand a chance legally on the warranty issue or the fact they seem to have modded the FW or sideloaded gapps. They offered a few options but to keep the phone with $100 back was less effort than returning to China hoping a fix may become available

Let's talk about Android Nougat on the idol 3. At this moment, it really looks like we will get official cm this time around. After we get everything working cm-14 should be more stable. The only worries I have is radio and audio. As of now there aren't any known devices getting Nougat with a snapdragon 615 processor so getting updated blobs may take us quite a while a month or so. Or we may have to wait for a new device to release.

Idol3 is still a fantastic phone, I'm still running marionette cm12.1 and 7 months later it still works perfectly. But if I were buying now, I'd probably go for something newer. However it'll be very hard to find another model with same performance and studio quality for the same price.

The Elephone is the 1st phone to implement quantum disruptive technology along with US DoD encryption standards which means that if you try to flash a custom rom the same people from the FBI who show up when you remove the tags from a mattress will be knocking on your door, arrest warrant in hand.

Hi everyone !
I'm available to test some ROMS if needed A CyanogenMod 13 or 14 would be so fine on the S7 !!
At least we can try to mod an original firmware already rooted and without chinese and security issues crap. What do you think ? Is someone here can make this first step please ?
Best regards.
Hi,
I tried to install some CyanogenMod 13 or 14 firmwares from other smartphones using Helio X20, but no luck, nothing works (from Xiami Redmi 4, Vernee Apollo Lite and Elephone P9000, nothing works)

That's a nice way to brick your device. Never and I mean never flash a rom for a different device. You are lucky if you have not messed up your partitions or other hardware.
Yes i know. But we need to advance on a custom ROM
I will try to find time to use a better partitionning script on a firmware and see if anything boots.
Best regards
please!! A ROM soon !!
S7 helio x25
Yes Please! There is a new version on gearbest based on helio x25 for only 10 $ more (between both 4/64 versions). Which on has the more chance to receive a cm version?
The old one cause I'm already in porting cm. I don't promise anything thought
And helio x25 is just helio x20 overclocked so I can make some changes to kernel to change the old model to helio x25.
Hello everyone
I have been enjoying my phone for a while along with my old S6 which had a ton of mods.
Ever since I sold my old phone, I can't help but miss features like viper4android and other magisk goodies that I used to have.
After the pie update which broke the bluetooth function I downgraded my phone back to oreo using odin and original fw.
I have been looking for a complete way to install a custom recovery (twrp) and use the phone with custom roms, but i have not found any complete guide yet.
Can someone point me to a existing guide or just tell me what files I have to use.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello everyone
I have been enjoying my phone for a while along with my old S6 which had a ton of mods.

Hey. Its not that hard and you already know the process. Go and try renovation ice . I am using it from a month and nothings better then it . The speed, the battery timing and tweaks are all amazing. https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ovate-ice-g950-g955-android-7-0-aqdg-t3598040
For installing a custom rom you need a custom recovery so flash twrp using odin .https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/guide-how-to-install-twrp-root-galaxy-t3752480
And While flashing renovation ice dont remove your system apps and dont do tweaks while flashing renovation ice there will be options for tweaks and removing apps but dont use them because when i did that my phone just bootloop and the next time i tried to flash it without using any advance options and then it was successful. On the first boot it may be slow or dont boot dont do anything let id do that wait and then it be all fine . I hope may this helps you and the rom is already rooted with magisk if not then tell me . I give you the link to flash super su .
Stay blessed?

Thank you for the response. I already flashed hadesrom. I knew the process, had several samsung's before and older phones as well, I was only unsure about the rmm issues and did not want to lock my bootloader.
