hello there , iwant someone to help me i am stuck , first of all i was on CN 1908.12 then i said i want to try ww version then i followed this guide :

https://forum.xda-developers.com/rog-phone-2/how-to/guide-convert-cn-to-ww-rom-26-08-t3961042

so i downloaded ww 1906.24 after that i updated to ww 1908.12 and i don't like it so i came back to CN firmware on same thread and i flashed CN 1906.24 it is run and i get the last update via OTA 1908.21 but now i am stuck i can't download google play and if i downloaded by getting old version it work but when i restart my device it break and it force me to make factory reset so now i want to return it to full CN Rom it still have some file of WW as i see . thanks
have you fixed it yet? i think yo uneed to flash CN RAW rom...
here's the latest 1908.21, unzip, remove original zip from folder (if it's exctracted to same place) and run flashall_AFT.cmd, wait for around 10 mins with cmd open, the device will restart maybe twice, then it's done...

Tencent version, WW rom. Any ideas?
Download and install device info hw from playstore., under system, check that the product shows WW as well as the fingerprint... Let us know, I'm guessing that although you have a WW Rom, the fingerprint needs changing to accept updates..

Ok product shows CN_I001D, fingerprint shows CN_I001D. Description shows WW_Phone-user9 PKQ1.190414.001/160622.1906.19-0

Can't I just download the CN version?
Do you want CN or WW? China has more bloatware and some parts still show a Chinese, but yes, you can flash the raw CN rom probably to get to CN rom, note there's a difference from a raw rom and zip rom..

I'm not sure about getting ota at this stage because your rom is WW and fingerprint is CN... Give it a go, it'll only stop /fail if it doesn't like it

What did you do? I want to insure I get all the updates, or see if I can return it.
i changed the fingerprint to WW, that way you can get updates... (forced ota by placing zip in root of internal...)

do you want to keep root, or just have stock boot and locked bootloader?

I'm happy just to keep it stock for now.

OK, you'll have to follow that whole guide in the link I provided earlier... Both parts, including relocking bootloader etc. Let me know if you get stuck. Good luck. Once you've updated fingerprint and Trim) rom to WW 1907.33 you can go ahead and flash latest 1908.21 from ota zip

@dungnghien
maybe you try to use an older adb version than the device can support
download my tools
asus-cmd : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PZsY8xSKPOVVYHi3sy4cg3FkSBjl8SOc/view?usp=sharing
cmd : https://drive.google.com/file/d/14x6wVdKgTBrPTod3iWFHrmr-2BY6m5k9/view?usp=sharing

copy them to adb folder and double click on ASUS-cmd
post a screenshoot

this version work with my zenfone 5Z and 6 ( ZS660KL )


you can download it here : https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools

edit :
- minimal adb version for rog phone 2 is 1.0.40 version 28.0.0
- maybe also an OS computer problem :
with some old windows you need a full adb version not minimal ( like the link )
