New batteries for Aliex are about NZD$20 each

sounds like a pain in the ass

it's hardware issues mostly

Battery?

yeah

Or some chip in the phone mobo not reporting it?

battery drain due to android not being coded for the intel processor

It might be a protection circuit

cyanogenmod works though

I could reflash in Cyanogen for these phones and it won't be shit?

also it seems mobo failure is common too

cyanogen seems to take care of some of the issues

Take a look at this then

I can pull my bids out if I want

>pawnstar

I used to live in NZ

I remember going into pawnstar to check shit out

good times

It just seems for a phone that's Atom, 4GB RAM 32GB ROM, it's worth it

For a NZD$20 fix, it could be OK

according to /g/ archives zenfone 2s are shit

tbh I'd rather not waste my time on one

Link that please?

@Aerkusa yo thanks for helping me out

11hrs for 60% is ok

the xda link wasn't of much help but i somehow managed to get to the chink eMMC reset menu

Np @Dra bro

yeah

zenfone 2 looks like a meme phone

that turns out to be actually shit

How can cm fix issues with atom if the issues are in aosp?

Or do you mean cm fixes issues over stock?

Stock/factory rom

"I bought the Asus Zenphone 2 laser
After 2 months it got a battery glitch where it wouldn't charge. It would detect itself as full at 60% and die at 40% even though android would report the 40% and 60% correctly."

Oh wow

I've had the same problem with G3

Stuck with my Zenfone 2 for almost a year without any news for 6.0 update, the intel chipset was horribly optimized with the software. Not to mention that Asus skin was shit, slow and heavy as fuck.

Never buy Asus phones ever again

Got one with a medicore battery

I had a Zenfone 2. Out of the box the screen and body had weird alignment issues. When thing felt very cheap. Then there was the bloat and shitty Intel processor. Then there was being stuck on lollipop forever. Then the screen died. Then there were no customer service reps who spoke English natively and then there were the cryptic emails asking for my credit card number to have on file in case I didn't send in my broken phone after they issued a replacement. Then the replacement broke too.

Fuck Asus.
