Zenfone 2 US SKU - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
Please I need your help.
A friend of mien purchased the zenfone 2 at B&h 16GB versions. IT says "US".
It bring me the phone, bu it remains stuck on the booting screen, I've managed to upload the official WW_ FW with ADB sideload.
Now the 3g nor SMS does not work, I can not create new APN with the needed parameters, it is not saved and it disappears after it is created.
I guess it is a modem FW issue and I need to reflash the US_ sku intead the WW_ sku, but i can not find the US_ FW nowhere.....

After ota update via usb with V20d-eur-xxx on v20e-eur-xxx can no longer via imei check your firmware version.
The phone is manufactured in Hungary, located in Serbia, and not sim lock.
With the old version v10e-eur-hp I update softvare with lg flash tool and everything was nice ok.Telefon and now works just do not understand why I can no longer get when I enter imei stock firmware version.
Updates before he was Suffix: A6HUTN ,and now is A6PSTN.
For now there are no bugs in the work, but to call it a small Bags is that when I enter the mobile Networks menu loaded 3-4 sec, and this happens after update V20A. Why?
So, do you have any problems with phone or ?
It is normal to take few seconds to open network menu. I have that also.

I have no problem with the phone, but I'm interested in why I can no longer unlock through to check the latest version of firmware.
That someone help me? :crying::crying::crying:
I found that my current suffix a6ps from macedonia, and before that was a6hu and that is because the phone is manufactured in Hungary.
Why does it happen and why sites like: devtester, lg-firmware-rom, lg-phone-firmware report IMEI is not valid or no firmware for my IMEI ????:crying:

open phone . take out mother board .. and read plaque model. if sprint flash sprint KDZ and LGUP. if H815 then do that .. thats the only way to be sure.
U have a refurbished model.Go to nearest mobile repair shop & take out your motherboard to see what model no is written on this.Then flash a rom accoringly. Don't flash any other rom just by assuming else you will brick your device.
Yes my phone is refurbished...
But how to flash the rom?
If I found it to be a sprint version and flash a sprint rom ...it will be locked?I am using phone in India...
Any chance to root the phone and install twrp?
Then flash a custom rom?
Please help...

Most probably it will be locked cause most higher Android versions LG has blocked rooting or unlocking..But you can always browse few threads.
Mine is also a refurbished model with F500L motherboard,LS911 body & had H815 global rom installed out of the box.I am currently on F500L Nougat locked & unrooted..I have tried almost every method.It failed to root & even to enter fast boot.
If you get your proper model no on motherboard then just flash the rom with ToT flasher in download mode with respective DLL.

Your network is locked?
You cant unlock it?
Can we degrade our Os to lollipop to get root?
Even I cant turn on the Enable OEM unlock under the developer mode...
Any more advices?
Please help.....
I have tried almost all h815 ans ls991 roms with all flashing methods but still unable to successfully flash my device...lg tot flash tool always show dl error after 4 to 6 percent of flashing...
Please help
Any idea's?
Pick the phone, and send it to the place where you bought it. If you have warranty the repair is free, if not, then you must pay sadly.
Still no solution, I even cannot enable OEM unlock under developer options...
It automatically disables it...
Please help
Just experienced this issue after changing sim card... Call and Camera stopped working over and over again.
How I solved it: Go to the specific app that is causing you trouble, and clear cache/files (too bad I only found this after 3 factory resets).
Maybe it will help ... LG G4 CAM

N5100 New MotherBoard from China, CSC CHN, Need Help Loading ROM

I have a Samsung Note 8 inch. Tablet. 2012 model.
N5100 INU version
The original Motherboard got corrupted so i installed a new motherboard Ordered it from China / AliExpress.
As soon as I installed the new MotherBoard everything works fine. /
UPDATED Info
It was with Custom Firmware / CHINA Official . but device Status was Custom, I did not try to load Chrome/ GoogleFrameWorkServices APK. On this firmware which came with the mother board, but i did see some info about that.
The issue is they ship with China Firmware
I need STOCK INU firmware on this. Or any English firmware.
I download the N5100 INU Firmware I allso tried ODIN
I also tried SmartSwitch
I also tried Kies UPDATE / Initialization nothing has been working.
ODIN gives "failed to write / complete error"
SmartSwitch unable to connect unsupported device
Kies same error
I also tried to update/ initialize but the issue is after download 2 or 3 hour of Firmware it goes to 0% and says "failed to update" try to use recovery mode from abother compbuter and ask for recovery CODE.
I know i am missing some thing very small.
I checked the Device is not ROOTED
I see ODIN mode
Binary: Samsung Official
Device Status Custom
Custom Binary Download: NO
Maybe it is locked or something.
IDK
2nd issue
When smart Switch Ask for model and serial
I had 2 or 3 times put the Indian MotherBoard Serial Number
And it had Failed.
Now i am trying to Do this with China MotherBoard Serial Number.
If this time it succeeds i will be happy to inform you.
But this will still only load the Official China FirmWARE for CSC CHN
Anyways After this Maybe i will try ODIN
Since once it will have china official firmware
then it will have India ODN firmware via ODIN
But I could also go into a bad State here..
If the china guys sent me the motherboard with custom firmware which will support all india sim cards and etc. And now if i complete this official china firmware. I might get locked out !!
Dam i dont know what will happen and how i will solve this.
The ONLY solution someone has suggested who bought this same mother board and did it.
Said that " you need to make IMG of the original Country Firmware built into the Odin file and you also need all the files BL / CSC / PD etc.
I want HELP thanks
UPDATE:
Ok entering the China MotherBoard Serial Number smartSwitch installed the original China firmware back.
And now the Device status became
Official too.
That's 1 step ahead or backward idk.
So now I need to install India firmware via ODIN.
I assume if i use SmartSwitch and put Indian motherboard serial and after 2 or 3 hours of download it will not upgrade since it will try to match the serial number.
Anyways I just tired ODIN and it does not work. Same error
Complete (write) operation failed.
Any help please
So FINAL:
I am stuck with Original Official CHN / China Samsung Firmware on this n5100 And I cant do anything
GOOGLE Youtube / GMAIL / Play Store / ETC.
Question:
Is there a way I can load a Multi CSC Firmware 1st which will load VIA ODIN and then Once this is LOADED
I can load INU INDIA firmware ?
I dont know what is the CLASH
Where is the CLASH and CONFLICT hapening for ODIN not working
Thanks Please REPLY HELP ASAP
SideQ
Is there any Custom Firmware which I can load and be happy
Marshmallow ? Nougat ?
All features working :
GPS /
Camera/
WIFI
SIM Card
Network
Bluetooth
No errors ?
Thank you
I will still prefer a Stock ROM

Edit: looking at your other posts, your issue looks like an imei issue. Sorry can't help. Ignore below if already done. There is an imei related thread in ROM section. Ask those guys for help.
First of all you need to stay with your own model firmware. Korean kdz is again a single sim firmware. Next in the unbrick tutorials it says to backup your partition before flashing. If you did that, the files will be at c\user\.....\appdata\roaming\qualcom\comport...\ .
The files will have really long filenames. Just check if they are backed up and flash them back.
I also experienced tish issue . before this i bought phone from ali express after i received it sudden restart itself automatic like 2 or 3 times a day. It was dual sim phone. Today i thought it is a software glitch. I checked my software version then i downloaded pie version of indian region. When it flashed successfuly it shows only one sim and also shows only one imei number. But sudden reboot issue fixed. I dont know what was then and what is now. It was before g710aew and now g710ulm. I think it is refurbished phone. So em saying you should flash pie version from indian region.

[GUIDE] Flashing XQ-AT51 Firmware on XQ-AT52 Device

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any bricks/ issues you may encounter following this guide. Although, I will do my best to try to help you if something were to go wrong.
MAKE SURE OEM UNLOCK IS ENABLED UNDER DEV SETTINGS BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING BELOW
Update 2: 3/11/2021 : I see maybe deleting the .ta files may help avoid soft bricking, feel free to try it I have not personally tested yet to see if it works.
Update#3 3/13/2021 : If you are following this guide recently make sure you update to Android 11 first! Do not do any updates after the first one to Android 11! Then the flashing should work just fine. Tested and verified this on Taiwan XQ-AT52 to 51 firmware
Hello, I've managed to successfully flash AT51 firmware on my AT52 without issue using Newflasher.
Step 1 download = the US firmware/ whatever region is needed for you and new flasher/ the sony xperia drivers needed to flash the firmware to your device. Extract it to your desktop. Install the Xperia driver from newflasher if you need to/ haven't yet. Newflasher needs to be extracted into the same folder where the firmware files are that you downloaded from Xperifirm. This step is crucial!
Step 2 : Power off your Xperia and put it in flash mode by pressing down on the volume and connecting it to your PC via usb. (Do not use the USB C cable that came with the phone use a different one if you have one) You'll know it is in flashmode if the notification LED turned green and the screen remains off.
Step 3 : Open newflasher.exe
Step 4: type n then press enter
Step 5: type n again and press enter
Step 6 : This is when you should get to the flashing stage. Press Y and enter to everything you are prompted to. type y for yes to. This for me resulted in a successful conversion over to AT51.
Step 7: Once everything is done and it says you are safe to disconnect your phone please do so and then press and hold your power button until the phone boots up.
At this point you should have a fully working AT51 firmware!
Bare with me as I"m working on getting developer access for androidfilehost and will upload the files asap. In the meantime you can download newflasher and the firmware files yourself using Xperifirm if you don't wanna wait for me to upload.

Can you tell me the model of your xperia phone? If you can still get it into flash mode when the notification LED turns green you may still be able to recover it.
Hi, I finally managed to restore it. I have to remove all the ta files to flash it, then it booted up.
Thanks for your respond.

I have using newflasher
After using 3 time xperia companion it work normal again
Hi, I didn't find this thread until after I made an attempt at flashing the device. I followed the instructions from the link below and ended up with the device saying it's corrupted.
https://www.xperiablog.net/2018/01/...-firmware-for-xperia-xz-premium-xz1-and-more/
I tried redownloading newflasher as well as redownloading the firmware I wanted as well as a new cable and that did not help. I reflashed it with this procedure listed above and it did not help.
Xperia companion won't let me do anything because it says the device is locked even though the device was not locked and there doesn't appear to be a way to unlock it. edited to add that I did get xperia companion to repair it successfully
edit again to advise I succeeded only after doing n and enter a third time then hitting y and enter for the final flashing step and that was successful in getting it updated correctly
Would it work to unlock my phone
Thanks for the guide!
Can I ask few questions please?
First is do I need to have my bootloader unlocked? I enabled OEM unlock setting in developer settings but that is only one thing I did.
And the second one is could this flash unlock my phone?
I am in this situation where my AT51 won't work with other sims except for Vodafone. UK.
I stayed with them for 30 days, (required time frame to get your phone unlocked) requested unlock code and it has been more than 10 working days but still have not received the code.
So today I did some searching online and found the service code to check if my phone is locked to a network and to my surprise it says it's not. So I am guessing that they have limited my phone to using only their sim through some other means andnot buy locking my modem. But this is ofc just a guess.
I kept chatting with the customer support and he keeps saying wait for the code which I do not believe is going to come, they have to unlock it on their end. But I am not sure about that. I don't think they are sure either..
Basically I'll wait fem more days maybe they will unlock it but if they won't when I am thinking maybe my modem is not locked and I could unlock it by flashing different ROM?
Or do you think this won't work?
Sorry for a rambling post. Looking forward to your reply. Thanks!

You do not need the bootloader unlocked as you are flashing official firmware.
Anyone know if you can flash a XQ-AT52 to a XQ-AT51 and then back to the XQ-AT52 firmware?
Sent from my XQ-AT52 using Tapatalk
I know this thread is a few months old at this point but I'm really struggling to flash to XQ-AT51. I've successfully flashed from XQ-AT52 Hong Kong (my original firmware) to the Taiwan version which is slightly better because of the messaging compatibility but I really want to get the US version. I have tried at least 20 times over the course of a full day and I have not been able to flash the US firmware without getting an error saying "Your device is corrupt It can't be trusted and will not boot" every time. I have repaired it back to the Hong Kong firmware (back when that was the one I had) and to the Taiwan version once I had that installed. But I have never gotten the US firmware to take without the "Device is corrupt" error.
My phone is the Sony xperia 1 mark 2 running the then default XQ-AT52 Hong Kong, and now running the default XQ-AT52 Taiwan. I've been trying to flash to XQ-AT51 US. I've been using newflasher v39 and the US firmware downloaded for xperifirm v 5.5.0.
So I was able to flash from the hong kong version to the Taiwan version and back with no issues at all. But I'm still unable to flash to the US version without the "Your device is corrupt It can't be trusted and will not boot" error that seems to happen every single time I try to install the US firmware.
Can someone make me a favor and can upload the latest ftf of Android 10 for the Xperia 1ii Single SIM?

The 1 II has downgrade protection, so as long as the firmware version of the US version isn't the same or newer than the highest version you've ever used you're gonna get the corruption error.
What you could try is flashing the newer EU version and then flashing only the older US customisation image. That's what I did for a while since US firmware was older than EU firmware, and it worked. Not sure if it'll work with Android 11.

im in the us and was looking to the 256gb version (i think its taiwan). is the hong kong or taiwan version missing anything? or is the only reason to flash to US to get better coverage with us carriers?

It's for better coverage and for VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling support. Also if you get a HK one with Android 11 you will be unable to flash the US firmware, because it is still on Android 10; and the phone has anti-rollback protection.
it arrived on 10 still, but its bugging me to update.

This isn't the case now since the US models have Android 11 too now
Can anyone confirm that this process has to be done using USB 2.x? I've read in a separate post that newflasher isn't compatible with USB 3.x, which is currently what all my computer use. Also, should I be using the newest version newflasher?
EDIT: Tried on USB 2.0 and it worked perfectly.
