  • GPS working (haven't tested cell/wifi scanning, but the satellite GPS works)

What's working

  • Wi-Fi works.
  • USB (MTP, ADB, Tethering,...) works.
  • Camera works.
  • Sensors (Gyro, Light, etc.) work.
  • Flashlight works.
  • Vibration works.
  • Audio works (sound feels a bit delayed but maybe that's just me).
  • GPS works.
  • Touchkeys (back, home, app switcher buttons) work.

What's not working

  • Bluetooth is very buggy.
  • FM Radio is not working.
  • Screen Recording is not working (resulting videos full of encoding artifacts).

  • Probably many more things. You tell me.

Notes

  • I'm not sure if phone calls and other RIL features (4G, 3G, etc) work. Haven't tested.
  • I removed the device checking code from the ZIP so it can work with the older version of TWRP. Make sure you only use this for model X00D (ZC553KL).

NOT READY FOR DAILY USE

We still have quite some work to do until that happens. This release is just for those curious enough to try.

How to Install

(Not meant for beginner - both this installation guide and the ROM itself.)

  1. Backup your phone.
  2. Unlock the bootloader; follow this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3/how-to/zenfone-3-max-zc553kl-bootloader-unlock-t3691837
  3. Get TWRP here https://mega.nz/#F!ZtMT0KxI!ObnACk_mxnPCbPHCVu_G8Q (this is the same place you get the bootloader unlock file in step 2)
  4. In fastboot mode, do fastboot format userdata
  5. Flash TWRP using fastboot.
  6. Reboot to TWRP, wipe everything.
  7. adb sideload the zip. Or adb push and install.

What's working

  • OS boots.
  • Apps works (except those that require specific hardware features that doesn't work yet).
  • 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi works
  • USB works, but you have to manually switch mode (e.g. choose MTP) in developer options.
  • Bluetooth works buggily.
  • Camera can take picture, but not video.
  • I'm not sure about phone calls and other RIL features (4G, 3G, etc). Haven't tested.
  • Sensors (Gyro, Light, etc.) work.
  • Fingerprint sensor doesn't work.
  • Flashlight works.
  • Vibration works.
  • Audio doesn't work.
  • GPS most likely doesn't work.
  • Of the hardware Back-Home-AppSwitcher buttons, Back works, Home triggers focusing on UI element instead, and AppSwitcher triggers menu action (long press AppSwitcher triggers the app switcher). Software navigation bar is employed until I can fix this.
  • Battery drains quite fast (like 50% overnight, maybe more). This is likely due to the GPS system repeatedly launching and crashing in the background.
