Hi guys,i realy love to flash a custom rom in my Zenfone 5.
Yes,I can flash roms or whatever via recovery,the only real problem here is,when i unlocked the bootloader,the camera will not working either on stock rom or custom rom,others are working just fine.
Flashing custom roms sure are fun,but this issue gave me a huge bummer as camera is realy important.:crying:
I used alot of methods to unlock the bootloader,but the problem still remains the same.:silly:
My Zenfone 5 Model is A501CG,here are the specs :-
-2/16gb ROM
-Intel Atom Z2560 1.6ghz
I found out that they are few users that having the same problem as mine.
Don't worry,i can make the camera back to normal,but for that,i'll have to relock the bootloader
I hope the devs will work on this problem.
Thank you and sorry for my bad english
You might have done some thing wrong or used the wrong unlocking tool am using same device with RR and camera works fine. try https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-Fin8UxrD6PRU9MM1lQZkV0SG8/view
this is what i used and its works fine!
I have the same problem

It's a uncommon issue that I found too.
Unlocking my friend's phone EXACTLY same way I did on mine (40.30 bootloader, 59.A1 ifwi) made his phone camera stop to work.
I don't know what is the issue, but it makes impossible to use the camera on the phone with a unlocked bootloader.

I'm on kk 2.22.40.54 original firmware with root and locked bootloder (i tried to flash twrp but the process failed). Can i use your tool without problems like random boot, no camera, etc.?
I need to install custom recovery only.
How can I make system backup before?
Thanks

You can try it. There's a small chance of your phone bring different from ours (which causes the camera bug). If you get camera bug just relock bootloader.

I faced random freezing on every Lollipop rom I tried in my phone (RR, CM, Stock, Gecko), with bootloader unlocked, and with bootloader locked, and tried with various kernels too. I can't use Lollipop on my device because this problem, typically occurs when I'm on Youtube or when I'm charging the phone, but occurs when I'm using the phone normally. Anyone else have this problem?
For more details, my model is Zenfone 5 A501CG 1.6 Ghz 8GB

Every time I return to stock, I use the downgrade tool to 2.21.40.44, and re-lock my bootloader with correct file from rom, and flash stock fastboot and recovery. Even with locked or unlocked bootloader, system keeps freezing randomly, in stock or in custom roms...
on which version are you currently on.. are you on kk . 44 ? ? ? ?
are you on stock..
provide your phone details..
can't help you if no details are available..
---------- Post added at 06:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:00 PM ----------
random freeze is generally associated with incorrect bootloader unlock or incorrect root..
many tools which unlock bootloader change your base version..
and many tools which re_lock bootloader will keep the changed version..
I had same issue..
I found out correct version of my bootloader..
then made sure that my locked bootloader was back to correct version..
I had to unlock & lock my bootloader many times with many different tools to finally get to correct version..
hope you understand what I am trying to say..
hope this helps..

Currently I'm using AICP ROM, with bootloader unlocked by Unlock_relock program, it's freezing less now, much more less than in stock. How i can discover the correct base version of my phone? I've tried different methods to unlock my bootloader, but the freezing never stops. And even if I relock, in stock ROM still freezes. I'm facing this problem since the first version of official Lolllipop (3.23.40.52)

To fix this u need to download root lock and unlock tool.U then need to first run root.bat and unroot.bat...Your isuue will be then fixed hopefully

Before doing all this u need to revert back to stock KK firmware or even stock lolipop.I recommend stock lollipop.For both u can find instructions here http://www.windroidica.in/2015/07/how-to-revert-back-to-stock.html?m=1.After doing the above mentioned procedure then u should run the root.bat(ur phone will reboot many times) and then unroot.bat(again ur phone will reboot many times).This fixes the issue mostly

Go to stock kitkat.Cause the root tool works best for that.After u have done that and fixed the freeze problem then u can update to stock lp firmware( need to update to bridge kk firmware first)

I will try that too. But in zip from AICP ROM there's no dnx or ifwi files. But it's a RR/CM based ROM, so I think the dnx and ifwi files from RR will work with that.
Try going back to firmware you were on out of the box. Remember to relock bootloader.. It will say secure image when u flash locked bootloader and kernel.. Then use any of devs unlocker here and flash again.

I can probably see right now, you've done it wrong... Download stock rom from huawei.consumer... For some reason i thought it's gonna be android MM, but it was android N, so no problem here, just download stock rom and you will have newest android.

Yesterday I had this issue, it's more easy than it seems. In Revolution Recovery for Nougat, flash the update.app ZIP with 6.0 , it will show you a lot of errors, but don't worry, it's ok. After this flash than DUALSIMOEM.zip and after that shutdown your phone and use the 3 buttons method to automatically ,,update" to B161.

Please mention in detail what did you do.
What custom ROM did you install??
What is your baseband verision (Please mention complete baseband)
Was it working earlier on the same Custom ROM and stopped working all of a sudden?
What troubleshooting did you try......reboot, clean flashing again, etc??
an apology for the delay...
First of all thanks for answering, information:
As most do the e unlocking of bootloader to install the TWRP of rajatgupta1998 same that I used to install the ROM Havoc 8.1, installation and use without problems until a couple of days after I no longer had the option of fingerprint in configuration or reacted the sensor for nothing, make several full wipes to see if I recovered and nothing, install Bliss 8.1, Arrow 9.0 and I can not get my fingerprint.
Currently I have the last stock ROM of Jerome-X, assuming I would recover the fingerprint with stock without success ...
My baseband is M8952_70030.25.03.62.02e ATHENE_LATAM_CUST.
Kernel ElementaryX G4.
If there is anything else that I must inform to receive help, I am available.
