What is working so far (tested on X00HD)
- Booting
- Wi-Fi
- RIL (calling, SMS, mobile data, and possibly VoLTE) (dual SIM works)
- Audio
- Bluetooth
- GPS
- Automatic brightness
- USB (MTP, ADB, etc.)
- AOSP offline charging
- Hardware keystore (password, PIN, pattern)
- LiveDisplay
- Sensors (rotation, accelerometer, etc...)
- It's surprisingly smooth, more than stock
What's not working
- Fingerprint
- Camera and flashlight (still requires some work) (because of this some overheating and battery draining might be here)
- Notification LED
Note: Even though Oreo firmware works, Pie firmware is preferred, as I develop the ROM using it, bugs reported with Oreo firmware will be ignored
To install it, follow this https://forum.xda-developers.com/ze...t/firmware-pie-firmware-updater-asus-t4124547 or install Pie beta before flashing this custom ROM
Instructions
- Download the latest build
- Download Gapps
- Unlock the bootloader
- If you use X00HD, install my TWRP build (you can find it here on XDA), else if you have X00I or X00ID, use aaaaaaziskurnia TWRP build
- Reboot to recovery
- Format data, stock ROM always encrypt it
- Flash the latest build
- Reboot

great
Any predictions for the Zenfone 4 (ZE554KL)?

---

New update is out!
See #2 post for changelog, a lot of stuff has been fixed
Remember, now X00HD is "called" X00H and X00ID is now X00I, so don't ask what zip you need to flash
If you can't find X00I update, please wait a little and check later, I'm fixing booting issues
I can now consider this custom ROM as daily driver ready
