Anybody got this issue, I can't save any contacts to my gmail.
Normally when I save my contacts, I will have option to save to gmail, now only got to sim or to device.

I think this happens after the update

Flashing Custom ROM

0) Have firmware v2.19.40.xx and beyond
1) Install Intel USB driver for Android Devices (this is a new version, recently released): https://software.intel.com/en-us/and...ndroid-devices
2) Enable USB debugging
3) Unlock Bootloader using this. Unzip and just run bat
4) Download the custom recovery TWRP for your model. Rename as twrp.img then Copy inside the tools folder that you unzipped earlier
5) From that folder, Press shift + right click > open command window. Type adb reboot fastboot. Phone will restart in fastboot mode
6) Type fastboot flash recovery twrp.img It should be done instantly
7) Boot normally and download any custom roms you want. Copy inside phone
8) To install just type adb reboot recovery, backup your current image first
9) Do factory reset, then flash your new ROM, then wipe cache/dalvic; finally reboot system

Nice looking rom! Any reason why u choose crdroid over blissrom or cm12?

All of the 3 are based on cm12, so just minor differences. Any bugs from cm12 would be present here too. When I looked at last updated, ordroid is November, bliss is October.

Ordroid also supports OTA update from the ROM makers, so hopefully keeping it up to date wouldn't be a problem

Realize now under Settings > About, the Android security patch level is indicated as 1 Nov 15. Not bad for Asus to keep the security up to date. Now if only Asus can release Marshmallow :o

On cm12.1, using greenify and 2battery app, having 3h 39min of screen on time for yesterday, battery dropped from 91% to 26% or use 65%

12273567_10206753574050321_2762253736378332630_o.jpg

Previously with Asus ROM with many unnecessary apps deleted, using greenify and built in power saving mode
Battery drain is similar when screen off..
12265536_10206741936959401_3303900488122841434_o.jpg

Conclusion: use Asus power saving mode and delete/freeze system apps if u don't like flashing ROMs for longer battery life.
