I did, but whenever it starts unlocking, it fails and I never get the inverted screen.
I believe the problem is with the drivers on my laptop as i believe that i didnt install them properly, mostly because i cant figure out how to

Try using a different PC, fresh windows 7 or windows 10.
I have personally tested the ROM on 2 devices over 50+ times.. Worked and Without unlocker tool from Asus..

Upgrade

Can I use this rom to upgrade to Marshmallow? Iam currently using lollipop OS. Will this delete all existing photos and videos in phone memory? I have a rooted ZX551ML 128gb variant. Thanks.

Are you saying there is no need to use the Asus unlocker tool?
Saw a bunch of warning on their site saying I have sign away the first born if I ever use it.

Also does the various memory make any difference? Since there are 32/64 and 128gb versions.

@GuilhermeXtreme can you kindly shred some light on this posts.

I just finished trying on at least 4 different desktops and laptops. Still no luck.
(PS-The screenshots attached are the same errors I got on every single computer)

->Install TWRP 3.0.2-m1 (Z00A)

It works the same on Z00X?
I see IODroids got it working so I assume it works fine.

I am on 128 GB variant, check screenshots and works fabulous.

Did you find d out what's different between the 2 version s z00x and z00a?
I saw a comparability listing showing it as a zenfone 2 model and not zoom. Although both seem to run same programs including camera app. Google camera can't access some specialised camera processing on these phones and pics come out looking bad in anything but sun light. I think so will all other camera apps.

You are absolutely correct, the major difference is camera.
I tried CleanStock MM which was based on Z00A base, everything worked except 2 important things (camera and mobile network, it was way too smooth comparatively).

Finally the OP of this thread @GuilhermeXtreme did the dirty work of porting the z00x base with his custom modifications, removing bloatware/rooting/magisk and other enormous stuff.

z00 or z00d varies because of hardware differences like 16, 32, 64, GB variants, different processors too.
Check wikipedia for more detailed information about this.

One thing I got to mention is, this phone uses Intel cisc CPU, installing Android apps not optimized for it draws more than twice the battery consumption. Not only does the CPU itself draw more power but the display does too. If all 3 are not synced the battery drains very fast. Even though Asus says install Google apps, I am not sure they are all optimized for Intel. Emulating is slower and also a power hog.

Just things I noticed while using it. During use the battery drain is huge. It will last 2 or 3 days with only phone use but not for apps. Using unoptimized apps drains battetyuch faster than on arm CPU. I went back to many Asus apps now which are huge in size but uses less power.

how to install xposed?

Nice work! Any chance of taking a peak at Lineage OS for this device?
