Hello everybody!
I have some questions about the two ROMs named in the title.
Because I am a new member I am not allowed to post in the development threads of these ROMs and because I can't find anything to solve my problems I decided to start a new thread.
These are my issues:
Edit:
Mh, I have a new problem additional to the three below:
I set a mp3-file as ringtone. But the phone seems to "forget" this from time to time and when somebody calls me there is no ringtone at all. Same thing happens with a ringtone set for a specific contact.
Any ideas what could cause that?
SOLVED: FC/Reboot on BlazR RC-8.2-ICS
Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28049137&postcount=826
I've installed BlazR RC-8.2-ICS on my Samsung Galaxy S Plus and everything worked fine. I wiped the Dalvik cache and formatted /system, /cache and /data (as I always do before installing a new ROM. Source:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1578821 First Post: "6. How to format").
Then I installed the zip from sdcard, booted my phone and wanted to download Titanium Backup from the Google Play Store.
After downloading the app, it said "Installing..." and after a while the screen turned black, it played the boot sound and then wifi and mobile network were down and it scanned the SD-card for mediafiles. This happens everytime when I want to install an app from the Google Play Store.
I rebooted the phone several times and tried other apps, but nothing works.
Are there any solutions for this problem?
SOLVED: Download-Issue with Simplistic Light V3B2
Download unavailable at the moment
I've tried to download this ROM like 10 times, but every time the file is just 163.339 KB and WinRAR says "Unexpected end of archive". All other downloads are fine. Is the uploaded file broken or is it something else?
SOLVED: Strange behavior in Simplistic Plus Final 2.0
I reflashed the ROM. Atm, it seems to work. But I still can not set a mp3-file as ringtone. After 12-24h the phone forget this setting and then there is no ringtone at all.
At the moment (actually for months) I use the Simplistic Plus ROM but suddenly something seems to be broken.
From time to time there is no lockscreen after turning the screen on. The phone seems to be awake all the time and generates a massive battery drain. Also the Reboot-Shutdown-menu (hold the On/Off-button) does not come up. Instead the screen turns off and nothing happens.
I didn't change anything in the settings, I removed all new apps but it still happens.
Have anyone the same experience or even a solution for this problem?
Additional informations:

Hi.
I found later that the problem is not caused by Titanium Backup. It seems it would happen as long as I switch the phone to GSM/UMTS mode (Global Mode).
I have a Sprint M8 but live in the UK.
I have been using custom rom (most of the time with InsertCoin) since last October and I enjoyed them.
Yesterday I backup all my data with Titanium Backup and then upgraded the correct firmware to android 5.0 Lollipop. Afterwards I installed the InsertCoin Rom Sense 7.
Everything is fine before I restored system data and reboot into the system. After it loads the system, it seems OK for only 10 seconds, then a notification pop-up, saying:
Service Update:
The operation is not allowed under GSM network, please switch to CDMA network.
I can only click OK and then it seems normal.
But the problem is every time I reboot the phone, this notification appears. It is really annoying. I am wondering if there is any way to permanently disable it?
I have been using InsertCoin and ViperOne rom on this phone before, and it works very well with Titanium Backup. Previously, this notification did not appear after I restore data with Titanium Backup.
Thank you very much.
Using the root file of DrKetan, my 920CD after about one hour lose sound notification, no sound for calls, for SMS, for whatsupp . no sound for clock's , only buzzer. Even others I know have the same problem.
The same iussue using magisk for root
Hi
No root here, but still loosing notifications daily, even tried running in safe mode, but notifications still stop working on a regular basis, a quick scan of other forums shows this as a very common problem since updating to nougat.7.0
I received an update of approx 75mb the other day, but this has not helped at all
Anyone with any ideas as to the cause this would be much appreciated

1)Happened with me also once like when someone is calling you or some notifications are received there is no notification sound But only the vibrations alerts if selected
2)So the best way is to Backup every imp data on internal storage to PC> Wipe everything including Internal Storage first> Flash latest Stock 6.0.1 or 7.0 according to availability and support for your device> Flash TWRP again> Flash any custom rom again> Problem solved
NOTE:-
Don't forget to enable Oem Unlocking and Usb Debugging Options From Developers Options before flashing anything using Odin
Already done many times and with all the Rom of nougat. The problem reappears unavoidably.
Incredible I tried all the Rom , originally ad custom fom Khongloi to all the others. all flashed after more than one wipe from recovery but in all mode i lost notification sound. Now I'm still in Android 6.01
I tried to make 92 clean installation of every type of ROM on the 920CD. In all, there is the bug of the loss of sound notifications. I read on a forum that many have this bug on nougat, someone has solved by eliminating spen insertion sound notification in the phone, in my case no this does not work. I think I have to give up having a phone that does not ring when they call and when they arrive at the clocks or notifications
As soon as you lose the sound notifications, I noticed that even the program that allows you to change ringtone and notification, selecting a different notification or ringing does not listen to the sound of the new notification selected. Only the restart of the cellphone also restores the sound here.
Hello i am have to the prblem
But i thing i have the answer*
Who have the problem of lost sound*
You have to do!
1. Wipe full*
2. Wipe data of all phone
3. Set-up the original rom
4. Than you may do root and set rom custom*
Lost soud it's because of lot file than we not delete if we set rom on rom but not do wipe data to all phone
I hope this helps
No this not works for me
Has anyone had problems with your phone's hotspot after updating to Android 13 on ZenFone 8?
I also did a factory reset, but it didn't help.
The signal is very weak and even if you connect another device, this then can not navigate because it is internet not available.
Back to Android 12 the problem disappears.
Did you have the same problem and how did you solve it? Thank you.

I just updated to Android 13 on my Zenfone 8 today, and the hotspot settings just disappeared (at least if I navigate through the settings). If i search all settings, I can find them, but trying to turn it on does nothing.
I wonder if this is an Asus problem or an AT&T (my carrier) problem.

I did all the tests, even the hard reset, nothing to do. I also tried to change mobile operator sim. It's just a bug in Android 13.
I asked Asus support, but they didn't give any answer.
Downgraded to Android 12 and that's the only way it works.

Two questions...
1. How did you try to get help from Android support? I was thinking of trying their phone support.
2. How did you downgrade? Is there a way to do with without wiping my phone and without rooting? I found a few guides about it online and they all seemed to require wiping the phone.

Oh, and also it's now taking about 7 minutes to register on the at&t network (as opposed to instantly in Android 12). How could they possibly have let this release into the wild?

Write to Asus support, you can find it on the official page. If you have registered your product, put all the data related to model and serial, only then they will move to find a solution to this bug.
For downgrade, you will always find in the support page for your model the firmware to download. Once downloaded, enter it in the internal folder of the phone and you will see that the update notification appears above.
Click and install. Obviously you lose all the data, because it resets to the factory state.

Thanks for the info. It wasn't obvious to me about the phone resetting - for all i knew, Asus might have an intelligent downgrade process that preserved the user data. Too bad they don't.

I also had this issue of the hotspot function disappearing after the Android 13 update. I followed the step to downgrade to 12. This worked, but before I could finish setting up my phone again, it was already automatically updating to 13. I reinstalled 12, and waited to connect to wi-fi to get things restored. Shortly after connecting to wi-fi again, the 13 update started again. I paused the update and then enabled developer options and disabled automatic system updates there, but I am not able to disable auto-updates in the regular system update settings. Is root required to disable this menu option? I have not rooted my phone and would prefer not to, if possible. Any suggestions?
Edit: So far, the phone hasn't resumed the auto-update overnight or following a couple restarts of the phone. The notification remains and I occasionally get prompts to continue the paused update, but I am able to ignore them. I guess I can live with it as is, but if anybody has any other ideas, please share. Thanks.
Edit: Today, I woke to find that the 13 update has downloaded and will install on reboot. I rebooted and let it complete the update to 13. Then, I downgraded to 12 once again. This time around, the option to disallow automatic updates was not greyed-out in system update settings. I disallowed auto-updates. The notification saying the update to 13 is available remained, this time, I was able to dismiss it. I don't know what to think about the previous issues I had, but it seems to have resolved it now.

I didn't see the Andorid 13 update even before the downgrade, I searched for it and installed it if I wanted it.
Adding to my posts above from February 18:
I was able to remain on Android 12, retaining the Wi-Fi hotspot functionality, until this morning. I awoke to find a software update notification message, giving two options: update or later. The message also stated that if I pressed later, it would continue with the update in 30 minutes. I rebooted the phone, and the update notification returned, however, lacking the 30 minute warning. A short while later, the phone began to automatically download the update, despite the option in settings disallowing auto-updates being ticked. I force-stopped the system update app, and it stopped downloading the new update. After a short while, it completed the android 13 system update download anyway. I decided to give the 13 update a try again, seeing that there was a smaller update added to the Asus Bios and Firmware download page on March 16th. I proactively backed up my data, knowing that I would likely need to downgrade to 12 again shortly to regain hotspot functionality. I rebooted to apply the base 13 update; no hotspot functionality, as expected. I then downloaded and applied the March 16th (WW-33.0210.0210.269) update OTA; still no hotspot functionality. I plan to downgrade again to Android 12, but I question how long I will be able to use it before another automatic update to 13 is forced upon me by Asus. Does anyone have any advice as to how to activate the hotspot on 13 or a way to guarantee that 12 will not be auto-updated to 13?
Edit: For anyone who might be having the same issue, here is what I have tried and so far, seems to be working. After downgrading to 12, I did not connect to internet during the initial phone setup process. When I did, the phone would already start automatically downloading the 13 update even before the setup process was finished. After setup, I immediately disabled automatic updates both in the regular system settings and in developer options (after enabling these, of course). I find it interesting that before, even with these two settings to disallow automatic updates in use, the automatic update would begin. The only other step I took this time was to disable my system app for system updates per the following method. https://www.xda-developers.com/disable-system-app-bloatware-android/
I understand that this method is likely used more for added bloatware than for system apps, and I questioned at first if it would even work for a system app. Still, after disabling the system update app, it shows "disabled" under its entry in the complete app list in settings, and the system update options in the settings menu are not visible anymore. The main "system" header in the settings menu does show a red dot with "1" indicating that there is something available within the submenu, but as stated there is nothing within pertaining to system updates since disabling the system update app. So far, there have been no other notifications for the 13 update as before. This system update app is easy to reenable, as shown in the link above, so if I want to download the system update later on, it is no problem. I will add to this post if this method fails, but so far, so good.
