[ASUS A500CG] Screen locks and unlocks randomly after 6.0.1 update - Zenfone 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After updating my zenfone 5 (intel 2.0GHz) to android Marshmallow screen locks and unlocks randomly when it's laying in landscape or horisontal position(if I handle it with any angle it also does, but less frequently)
I have no idea what to do. I have tried unofficial CM13.1 and Resurection Remix and it's the same(I made clean flash of course). Dirty unicorns doesn't boot at all, so I have no chance to check it.
Maybe I should flash any speciffic firmware to use marshmallow without problems but I have no idea wchich one... (Is there any step-by-step manual of moving to MM and flashing these ROMs? I'm not sure but i think I have used this one)
The second problem but a bit smaller is that I can't connect to the cellular data internet but i'd focus one the first one.
Here's the video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEAg6K3z0OE
If I enable any screen lock I just can't use the phone
Before Marshmallow update(on stock ROM, but unlocked) there was everything ok.
It also doesn't locks on TWRP, only on system

thats came from bootloaderunlock you can use cm 13.1 kernel and enable dnxfix for this second dirtyunicorn is booting when you came from cm based roms you must make a fullwipe then dirty is aosp thanks

Thanks
Ok, I flashed CM13.1 boot img. It's the same. I also tried to reflash whole CM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-5/development/cyanogenmod-13-t3382702 and it doesn't work.
The phone still locks and unlocks its screen :/
I made full wipe of course...
"dnxfix" - do you mean "dnfix" wchich is mentioned in cyanogen's thread? Ok, I'll try it. And slockfix. It looks promising

Have the same problem here. The problem goes away on airplane mode though.

BLack screen after installing any rom

On my note3 (n900t), after I install any rom, which I've tried CM11, CM13, ResurrectionRemix v5.6.0 and 5.6.5, and the latest version for lollipop. Every time, it will install successfully via twrp, get to the welcome/language select screen, then the screen will go black, i.e. off. Pressing buttons or tapping the screen still turns the haptic motor, but does nothing, and the back/menu lights come on for a split second at a time, and sometimes spaz out turning on and off on their own.
these are the guides I followed, if it helps:
CM13: androiding.how/download-note-3-cm13-rom-marshmallow/
CM11: Just the wiki
RR: galaxynote3root.com/sm-n9005-galaxy-note-3-roms/resurrection-remix-rom-w-android-6-0-1-for-galaxy-note-3-marshmallow/The video in this one shows it working on a n900t, so it isnt a model compatibility thing
Is there something I've done wrong here? How can I fix this and install one of these?

Did you do all the wipes? On TWRP I always press advanced(I don't use factorey reset), then select everything but internal storage and SD, then I flash and it boots just fine.

Remember that rr marshmallow releases don't work for SM N900. I guess that your phone is sm N9005. Right?
If it is, is awkward that you can't flash a rr marshmallow ROM
You should be in the T-Mobile note 3 forum?

got exactly the same problem....Tried to flash repair stock rom with pit, with success, but doesn't change anything
can flash 5.0 stock or 5.1 port rom but not CM or AOSP..
if you find what happen....
Hi, I've had the same issue on my Note 3 N9005. I thought it was a problem caused by Knox, so I opened the original bootloader and I deleted every Knox file; then I flashed it and it works. I tried this solution with the Resurrection Remix Rom v5.6.5, but when I updated to v5.6.7 it gave me the same problem. After a sleepless night I realized that, being the problem related to hardware components (the screen), and being impossible that such components were broken, I thought that the real problem was the kernel, so I tried to flash a compatible kernel with the Marshmallow 6 version of Android and it finally works. The kernel in question was the NetHunter one (Kali Linux), that I flashed even when I flashed the bootloader, without noticing.

New User - CyanogenMod Questions

Hello,
I received my Nexus 6P yesterday and got my SIM card activated without any issues at Verizon. I immediately took it home, unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, and then flashed CyanogenMod's latest nightly. After booting in, wireless networks weren't detected, and I only had 3G (no 4G LTE as I should). I restored my backup of the stock ROM that I made in TWRP and it hung at the Google logo. I'm not sure why. I then flashed all the latest factory restore images (MTC19X) to get it working again and determined that the issues I had in CyanogenMod might have happened due to the vendor.img I had on my phone at the time not being compatible with that build of CM13.
My questions are:
1) What are the known issues that would likely occur due to vendor.img being a different version than what CM13 was based on? The concept of vendor.img is new to me. I haven't had this, as far as I know, on any of my other phones (granted I'm coming from a locked Samsung Galaxy S5 that I've had for almost 2 years)
2) How can you easily tell which vendor.img CM was based on so you know which one to flash?
3) Is there anything else I should be made aware of before attempting to flash CM13 again?
4) While using CM13, do most people recommend a custom kernel? If so, which one and how stable is it? What are the benefits of switching from the stock kernel, and how simple is it to go back if there's a problem?
Thanks!!
dude...I just got the N6P and ran CM13 within hours. This is what I did...
unlocked the bootloader
downloaded the lastest (MTC19X) image off of https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images and unpacked it into the C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools folder
ran the flash-all.bat
fastbooted TWRP
installed CM13. (didn't wipe internal storage)
installed arm64 open Gapps pico
BAM!!!
right now running stock kernel. it's cool. I'm PrivacyGuard-ing the hell out of all my apps (turned off START AT BOOT and KEEP AWAKE for almost every downloaded app), though, so battery is OK
also using Kernel Adiutor but underclocking values for the CPUs doesn't seem to stick
So it likely worked for you since you had flashed the newest vendor.img first. Apparently there are compatibility issues with certain features that cause them not to work (such as WiFi) if you're using an older one.

1) Depends on ROM /VENDOR, sometimes nothings happens then an error message, sometimes things doesnt work
2) Just download fresh the latest snapshot, release or nightly (they are much more stable then for a few years!) and vendor image (use these ones which are recommended!)
https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_angler (there is a link for the vendor)
3) If you stay close on the tutorials, i dont know what should happen (flashing a rom is normally not critical, installing a recovery can be!)
4) Custom kernels can be great, but its not a must-have. Which kernel you should use depends on your wishes: better battery, more power etc.
Hope i could have help you a little bit!

Are you sure you're using ROM built ONLY for G360H? None of us faced that error. Also remember Roms made for other device won't work and you may hard brick your device.

Idk man. You should probably try flashing official stock firmware using Odin. Its really easy. Then flash twrp by dreamstar. And start flashing custom ROMs.
I was on stock of Saudi Arabia. But I never used it after we got various CM builds..
I am on RR 5.8.3 by hash now.
Thnx for ideas
my problem solved
Now Installed​ lineage 7.1
Bdw how to close this Thread ?

Help i'm not sure but i think i might have bricked my sm-g360h.
HELP I'M NOT SURE BUT I THINK I MIGHT HAVE BRICKED MY SM-G360H. When i had some issues with my phone, I used twrp to flash cyanogenmod 12 custom rom on my phone some two weeks ago and it flashed properly. After a number of issues, i decided i wanted to go back to the stock rom. so i downloaded the firmware from sammobile, installed odin and flashed it with odin. when the flashing was done successfully, my phone rebooted instead of giving me the screen of a newly launched phone it went to the home screen, and had a pattern lock screen and tried my pattern lock from when i was on cyanogenmod 12 and it unlocked it. and gave me the screen of a newly lauched phone but before i could continue with startup, it rebooted immediately and each time it get to the lock screen, it goes to the screen with the samsung logo after some few seconds and then come back to the lock screen please help what do i do?
PS: one of the issues i had that made me want to return to the stock rom was the fact that i couldn't change my screen lock to none or swipe after i decided to use pattern on the cyanogenmod

Sounds like problem of dirty flash not hard brick.
Here's what you should do.
1) go to twrp recovery using power + vol up
2) wipe everything except storage
3) Flash cm 13 beta 5 or 6 ( the latest beta) or lineage OS or RR
4) if the problem still exists, then used Odin to flash stock ROM and repeat steps 1 to 3
Also don't use cm 12. Its EOF and you won't get any bug fixes and updates.

No keyboard after custom ROM install (bounty!)

I just moved from Pure Nexus 7.1 to SuperXE 8.1. I think I forgot to flash vendor image but otherwise did full clean flash. ROM boots but when trying to connect to WiFi there is voice input but no keyboard. Haven't ever seen something like this before... Added vendor image and redid full/clean flash multiple times with same result. Unfortunately, activity on that ROM thread is a bit slow and I'm down without my phone so decided to ask for help here.
Adding $20 bounty for help fixing. Serious withdrawal mode without my phone. I have a backup phone but it is nearly unusable...

Since you are coming from Nougat to Oreo i would suggest you first flash the full oreo factory image before flashing the oreo custom rom. Its not usually a must but solves a lot of minor problems

Fingerprint Scanner Null after Pie ROM Flash - Custom ROM won't fix. Stock Only

Fingerprint Scanner Null after Pie ROM Flash - Custom ROM won't fix. Stock Only
Ok, the story.... Moto G5+ retail, running 8.1 Oreo, Bootloader Unlocked, rooted using Magisk 16.7 and was able to backup my Stock Oreo ROM once rooted, or I'd be dead in the water.
So wanting to stay ahead, I tried my hand at RR v7's Pie version, which, after some troubleshooting, was able to install successfully; but I don't much care for the google bar and other hard-coded "pure android" features. Same thing with Pixel Exp. Not to mention that Pie disallows call recording among a few other things Google decided to stifle its customers with. Deal breaker. So - moving on...or back for that matter.
I proceeded to download RRv6, which is btw running nicely on a 2nd G5+, same GApps, installs perfect except - FingerPrint Reader is not acknowledged. Period. No Security settings, No RR Config to access it, Nada. No matter what ROM I flash outside of the StockROM I backed up, it won't recognize the fp reader upon boot up. Whether I clear Dalvik/Cache, All DATA, do a full Wipe, DATA WIPE, REPAIR, FORMAT, nothing allows me to install RR v6.0 or any other flavor, Oreo or Pie, even while trying a dirty flash over Stock Oreo on this Moto G5+. Tried with several SD Cards, downloading fresh zip files from RR. I even went so far as to image the working G5+, then copy into the 2nd G5's SN folder, and do a restore, just loops - even after repairing the partition. I managed to work around that, Restored the image, but still no FP recognized by the initial Google startup/setup. It's almost as if the phone's been "firmwared" or "tagged".
Any ideas what could be lingering from Android Pie that would survive a F2FS/exT Format? Because something updated some kind of firmware on the phone during a Pie ROM flash, that now won't let me go back to anything below Pie, with a working fingerprint reader. The only difference between the G5 that works and this one is the working one has never seen Android 9. And it's staying that way til we come up with a way to hack the google crap.
Any help would be - awesome to say the least.
Thanks for looking.
Hello,
The issue with fingerprint is that after flashing stock Oreo ROM it replaces some files related to fingerprint sensor.
Hence all the newer custom ROM builds use the Oreo firmware related files. Hence it worked on the Pie ROM.
RR v6 would be still using the old nougat firmware hence you need to flash a file for it work. Which will replace the fingerprint related files for Nougat Stock firmware:

In case you want to revert the changes and use Pie ROMs:

That would make sense if PHONE1 manifested the same thing. But I went from StockOreo to RRv6-Oreo w/out losing anything and having to flash any FP Firmware. I used the RRv6 Official from 18-0911. Which is what's been leading me to believe there's something awry with this 2nd G5. I wonder is it possible PHONE2 has some slight firmware variance that is simply ignoring during the RR flash? Anyway, I'll give this a shot. this is TWRP flash, not fastboot, yes? Just being clear as I'm not proficient at this just yet.
Thanks Sharan!

Sweet! I had to reflash from scratch as for some reason it wouldn't let me update the ROM already running. But once I re-flashed RRv6-8.1, then flashed FP, it's now back. You rock Sharyn - nice work!
Now if only we found a way to cleanup that Pie - hate the perpetual time stamp, search bar and inability to record voice. Which is why I'm staying on Oreo til further notice. I know it was Google who took it away on v9.
Thanks again Shar!

Crap - so turns out this solution was short-lived. FingerPrint Scanner is back to inactive and FPzip isn't fixing it. Only StockOreo brings it back. Tried a plethora of ROMs from Nougat to Oreo, nothing but Pie and stock Oreo. Symptoms say it's the ROM, but a ROM that is currently working on the 1st G5 won't work either. Still looking for solutions, anyone...
