Yes you need to unlock the bootloader and install twrp. There is a step to step video here which you can follow and get your device bootloader unlocked, twrp installed, and rooted.

On exynos devices, the boot loader is unlocked, you just need to flash TWRP.
On Qualcomm devices the bootloader locked and you need to unlock it.
as you have SM-G935FD which is a exnos device, you can skip the unlocking step and use TWRP.

Zenfone 5 random freezing on every Lollipop ROM

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
give details of your phone..
boot to bootloader and write its version..
may be you have installed wrong version bootloader..
many people have faced this problem after bootloader unlock..
Search the forum..
solution is available..

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)
Where I can find dnx and ifwi for A501CG model to unlock bootloader without change version?

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.

Yeah..J3 emerge .. i traded it for my stylo 2 cuz by the time i got it the stock version came updated with an unlockable bootliader...ie it couldnt be recognized in fastboit mode by either my windows adb and my linux machines adb .....also if u did finally get twrp it would wioe your phone after the first time...and root would be erased if you rebooted or powered off...i never got that far. So i got this version...its got a 1.4ghz octa core with 1.5gb ram 16 gb storage...deffinately upgrade ...working on twrp port for verity disable(what erases temp root) and root ...so for now just the oem bootloader was unlocked...I used crom.apk by samsung..its only 79$ on boost so it should sell a ton ...its a great phone running MM ..a dev base soon since 6.0.1 root is not easy atleast some1 will find a way soon but it came out just last month....in 4 days tho i buy the HTC Bolt and its their most expensive android besides S7 at $399....$200 with my code...but ut has root and its specs compare to the LG V20 almost identical. So i will probably find a way trying ne thing...i just need another adb bacup or wait till sammobile posts its firnware....its also 7.0 ota certified (leaked) http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/58b4898d8fc8e/Screenshot_20170227-121811.png?
...so its worth check into upgrading it if u own the j3 2016 j320 in about 6 months when root/twrp recovery are found and ported.....tho im trying im no pro developer

Yes also 2.46 was the one made for j3 2016 but its because its on ll
I see well as soon as i can
1. Extract the recovery.img
2. Use Andrioid kitchen
3. Fastboot test TWRP....shout out to Root Junky and his Full Adb backup video showing you can temporarily boot twrp b4 flashing.
4. Perform backup through TWTRP
5.Install via TWRP
a.no-verity-disable
b.Supersu 2.74
5. Wipes and precautions.....ive heard not to decrypt some devices and how to continue with TWRP without doing so ..
6. Get someone to verify if the twrp i do have is geniune....pm me as I dont want to have someone1 bricking their device or being banned for copyright issues
7.Give credit where ita due

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.

Hello!

After owning many devices, the time has come this one passes onto my hands, albeit a temporary device, I'll keep it as long as it's functional.
So hello everyone.
Gonna see how to unlock bootloader, flash twrp and most likely RR ROM.
If anyone has any recommendations for roms kernels bugs and anything else a new owner should be aware they'd be appreciated greatly.

R u dev?
So what ur device? Rn3 pro(Kenzo) or Rn3 pro SE(kate) ?
If u can unlock kenzo officially using miunlock tool. Then U r lucky.
But if u want to unlock bootloader unofficially then better do it on recent miui marshmallow rom. Dont do it on lollipop miui.
Latest oreo or pie custom rom need marshmallow miui9 or miui10 bootloader to boot roms. Lollipop miui bootloader cant boot latest custom rom.

I think U didnt do format data in twrp. Thats why ur some rom are not booting. There is option format data. Miui encrypts ur data and internal sd by default. So format data must do to decrypt it.
First format data is must do.
Then u do wipe data factory reset
Then flash rom
Flash gapps
Reboot
Pretty nice, way better than I expected for the 70€ I paid!
Latest RR+Agni kernel.
Sound and display became better as well.

Can you answer these questions:
Is your boot loader unlocked now?
Do you want a stock version of 5 or an after market version. If you have an unlocked boot loader do you want CyanogenMod 12 or a variation of it?
Why did you root your phone?

so now bootloader is locked again.

If you want to go back to stock, go here..... https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...rmware-pit-verizon-samsung-galaxy-s5-t3757416 and download whatever version you want and flash it with Odin per the instructions on that page.

You can root any ROM with TWRP & Magisk. You just need an unlocked boot loader to get started with.
If you don't want to or can't unlock your boot loader go here. https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...oot-method-t3561529/post71147687#post71147687
and click the box below the "If your eMMC CID starts with "11," start here:" statement.
