Questions about unlock with MM to flash custom rom - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been reading this forum for several weeks.
My goal is to install cyanogen13.0 but unfortunately my research did not allow me to clarify several issues ...
I know you can tell me to go read and search but I have done that ... made questions on some topics ... but I still have doubts.
If someone can help me:

LG Optimius E615

Hi All,
I wish to start a new thread for LG Optimus E615 with the hope that 615 users will get help from XDA colleagues for unlocking the boot loader, install custom recover, kernel and ROM. I am not a developer, so sorry for my ignorance if I type anything funny.
We have a good rooting guide for 615 written by XxXKINGMAKXxX @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2098550 . A lot of thanks to him. I have seen dedicated pages for LG 610 and 612 in XDA for unlocking the boot loader and for custom recrovery and ROM that support overclocking and other features.
I welcome help from everyone those wish to assist us.
Regards,
GG
After rooting using the link you provided, you have instructions in this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2163698 - to unlock bootloader and install CWM recovery. There is a link there with specific E615 files for bootloader unlocking.

Thanks for your reply.However a reboot loop issue has be reported from many guys and the fix for the reboot issue is to install the unofficial firmware by Chacha_Ivanov, Right? I believe Chacha_Ivanov firmware is only for E610 / 612 right? 615 is dual SIM and will it be suitable? Or just wanted to know whether the reboot loop issue is there with E615 official firmware?
Regards,GG
I found an active discussion in 4PDA.ru regarding E615 kernel, ROM. .. here goes the translated page http://translate.google.com/transla...da.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=396754&st=520
Follow the guide by ldeleeuw on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2163698 to unlock the boot loader and installa custom recovery. It is working fine with my e615.
Would any of this work on E617G ? And I couldnt locate any flashable roms for the Optimus. Any pointer?
Thank you!

Seems no one is cooking a custom rom for this type of phone. Ive' been constantly checking for the jellybean update but it seems no update for LG E615. I regret buying this phone.

[Q] Please help me about Xperia M CWM and ROM flashing

Hi,
My bro owns Xperia M and wanted to install CWM / TWRP on it so he can flash custom ROM. I want to help him but I don't want to unlock it's bootloader. Can you please link me to threads where I can get CWM for locked bootloaders and flash rooted custom ROMs?
If this is not possible at all then please link me to bootloaders unlocking thread and kernel threads, I am just not willing to take risk as it is not my handset.
Thanks...

Hi, currently there is no CWM for locked bootloader, it is all for unlocked bootloaders. You will have to unlock the bootloader (you can find out how to do that if you search the forums) and then install a custom kernel (again, search the forums).

G3 is easy to root and bump (install TWRP)
Bootloader is locked and Bump gets around the lock.
Root using the correct tool for your model check original dev section
Flash Bump'd twrp using flashify and your golden
The lollipop is official for most devices except carrier specific which i'm unsure about

A lot of your questions can be answered via the FAQ thread. Have a read there. It's what I read through to determine if this was the right phone for me (rootable, custom ROMs, etc):

Bump is the workaround of locked bootloader ? So flashing let's say twrp from official site will brake the unlock?

Need help rooting UN/BL D5503

Hey,
I am sure you get a lot of these posts. I have searched the forums and can't find the straight forward noob answer I require..
I have managed to unlock my bootloader on my D5503 / 14.6.A.0.368 Android version 5.1.1
I have tried to follow these instruction found Herebut I am confused.
Download and install the latest Flashtool
Run XperiFirm (comes pre-bundled with the Flashtool) to download the latest FW.
Download [UB ONLY] [kernel] Root, init.d support, Recovery & Busybox for 14.6.A.0.368
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I know I need to use flash tool but it also says I have to use XperiFirm to DL the latest firmware. I am Australian if that helps..
Could someone please explain what exactly I need to do to root my phone.
Thanks

.368 is not the latest anymore. If you have Flashtool, open it, and click on the 'XF' logo at the top to open Xperifirm then find firmware and download and flash. You don't have to use Flashrool with unlocked BL. You could install recovery and flash a prf instead, or use a custom rom.

Managed... Unlock... Bootloader... Instructions... Flashtool... XD
Exactly what do you need? Root?
Well tellme:
1) is your device's bootloader unlocked?
2) Do you have a custom kernel or the stock one? Which one?
I'll help you if you answer the 2 questions. Greetings

Unlock for MM beta, is it available now?

Hi, I'm using Resurection Remix and lots of custom ROM for over a month, but no one as battery friendly and stable as stock MM. So i would like to ask can we unlock MM by now? So I can flash TWRP and backup, flash and do other things. And safe way to revert to stock 5.0 (Not fastboot flash bom-token blablabla)? I brought my Z008 to service center because of this. If there is a way, plz reply me with a link to that thread(s). Thanks in advance

Yes there is an unlock but it doesn't allow for much. Just use the forum search to find it.

Is that the "2 click one" ? I had tried that before and it didn't work for ze550ml on .69 firmware
And if i unlock sucessful, which root should I flash? The non-system or the normal (Chainfire's) one?
