Hello guys.... so I flashed a rom about 6 months ago, and yesterday my phone died and when I put it on the charger it was stuck on boot loop. I tried to go into recovery but when I do it also goes into boot loop. I've also tried the ADB command, but it says "Adb is not recoznices as an internal or external commad operable program of bactch file" so i'm out of ideas right now..i can't really flash another rom if I can't get into recovery can anybody help me? thanks in advance...

In fastboot, you can only use fastboot commands. Choose fastboot from the HBOOT menu, and when connected to your computer, it should say "FASTBOOT USB." Then, you should be able to do a "fastboot devices," and your device should show up. Please provide the output of "fastboot getvar all" and we can better judge how to proceed.

That's not what I asked for, but it might be enough. You'll need to relock the device (fastboot oem lock) and then flash the 5.07.651.1 firmware.zip via RUU mode.
Here's the file you need to download, and place the file in the same folder on your computer from which you're running fastboot.
So, after relocking, at the command prompt reboot to RUU mode.
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Then flash the firmware zip.
Code:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
Once complete, the command prompt will come back, and you can reboot back to the bootloader.
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
At this point, you will have the stock recovery, and hopefully it'll boot into it. So, when you get back to HBOOT, choose the "RECOVERY" option. If all is well, you'll get the red triangle with exclamation point, which is the stock recovery. Press both volume buttons and the power button at the same time to bring up the menu, and choose the option to reboot the device now. Hold the volume down button immediately after choosing to reboot so you can get back into HBOOT.
From there, you just have to unlock again, and then you should be able to flash a custom recovery.
Make sure you are running these commands from the folder with fastboot.exe in it. Otherwise they will give you the error you mentioned in your OP.
This may sound dumb but im having a problem relocking the device. My computer is not registing my phone.

For the purposes of this exercise, you need to select "FASTBOOT". Once you select that, it should change from FASTBOOT to FASTBOOT USB if the drivers are installed correctly.
Nothing is supposed to open on your computer - I'm not sure what you mean by that. You have to open a command prompt, and navigate to the location of fastboot.exe on your computer, which you're presumably downloaded previously.
Im not sure what I meant either sorry its been a long day. So, okay I have the correct drivers because it does say FASTBOOT USB but when I try in that command i get an error message stating it's not recognize internal or external.

Again, you have to run the command from the folder with fastboot.exe in it. Are you doing that? Please provide a screenshot of the folder contents and the command prompt.
I dont think I am because this is literally what i have the phone plugged into my pc and then I have command prompt running.... so when you say i have to run the command from the folder...i guess i'm lost as in what folder since my phone is on the screen that says fastboot usb... sorry! noob completely!

You can download fastboot from here: https://www.htcdev.com/process/legal_fastboot_win

You shouldn't be running anything related to adb. Just follow my instructions. Everything I said is for fastboot, not adb.
I really dont know what im doing wrong I downloaded the fastboot and then the filmware i put them both in one same folder and then when command prompt came up i got an error...idk what im doing wrong!

What do you mean when the command prompt came up? I asked for screenshots for this reason. Difficult to be able to determine the issue if you don't provide enough information.
Okay back to the start, I have both files in one folder....do I extract?

Well I flashed by the firmware 2.22.1540.3 through hboot and now my phone is stuck on on the bootsplash screen I can boot into bootloader mode. My computer doesn't recognize that a device is connected so I can't use adb and I tried flashing twrp by using a custom ruu in hboot but it didn't work. Anyone know how to get a custom recovery and flash a custom ROM? Thanks in advance. I'm s-off and I have an unlocked bootloader and the zip was modified for my CID (CWS__001)
Does fastboot mode work? That's the best way to flash a recovery.
As far as the rom goes, you'd need to adb sideload or from twrp adb mode. Or I recently did it using a micro SD. I put the rom on the microSD with my tablet, poured out in the phone and flashed with twrp.

That's what it's supposed to do.
In a command prompt... Navigate to the folder fastboot is in and type "fastboot devices". If it returns a number, you're good to go! Flash recovery.

So I got my bootloader unlocked so obviously fastboot drivers are working, I have the SU zip copied to my internal storage and the IMG file in my Minimal Fastboot folder location....
When I run :
fastboot boot "path to IMG".img
My command prompt just says "waiting for devices" and does nothing?
Do I run this command from while in bootloader mode? Power + Vol down ? When I have it plugged into my PC in this mode and I run "adb devices" it does't find my device? Does that mean I don't have the right drivers installed?
What am I missing here? Damn this phone is complicated.

You want fastboot boot twrp.img
Then you want to install TWRP rc1 from your internal storage from TWRP. Then you want to boot to system once then boot to recovery and install su2.79 sr3 from your internal storage

I know the command I want, I'm asking where I run it from? Do i run it while my phone is in Android connected to my PC or do I run the command from fastboot while my phone is in the bootloader mode??? When I have my phone connected normally and run an "adb devices" it doesn't find my phone but obviously it recognizes my phone otherwise it wouldn't have been able to copy dePixel8 and unlock my bootloader.
My question is *where* do I run that command. As I said before, if I run it while my phone is powered up normally and connected to my PC it just says "waiting for devices". If I power my phone up into bootloader mode (power + vol up) my fastboot doesn't see my phone????

I guess what I am saying is how the heck do I boot into the TWRP IMG ? My bootloader is definitely unlocked, I have SU on my internal storage, I have the IMG in my minimal fastboot folder. I just need to know how the heck to boot into "recovery mode" using the :
fastboot boot "path to".img
If I run that command while my phone is connected normally with USB debugging enabled it just says "waiting for devices"
Am I missing something here...?

You need to follow the steps I gave you. You need su2.79 , and rc1 on your internal storage. Then you need TWRP rc1 boot image on your computer. Put it in your platform tools folder or wherever you got your other firmware. Put phone in bootloader mode, then open a command window where you have TWRP boot image saved , type in fastboot devices, to make sure computer is seeing the phone, then the command should be fastboot boot TWRP.img, then install rc1 off your phone storage, then boot to system once, then boot back to recovery and install su 2.79 sr3

OK I figured it out, while the phone is booted into Android you have to actually issue the command to reboot it into the bootloader mode otherwise it won't detect the phone (at least it wouldn't on my PC)
I ran this command from my minimal fastboot folder (shift + right click -> open command prompt)
I then typed this:
adb reboot bootloader
Then once it is rebooted into bootloader mode issue the
fastboot boot .img command
It then rebooted into TWRP, and I was able to flash the SU zip

Thanks man, I figure other people might run into these problems so I might as well post about them. If I booted directly into the bootloader my PC wouldn't recognize the phone, if I issued the command to reboot it would. Weird...but whatever, I'm unlocked and rooted....

Hi everyone ! I'm here after a long time. I am really ashamed of asking many noob questions here. But now I might be bringing something useful.
So I bought the piece of useless brick Asus Zenpad C 7.0. it's pretty useless. Can't even watch a movie without the battery draining down to 0.
Anyway..So @AwesomeLewis24 posted a method to unlock the bootloader and root this device. Right after he made that thread, Asus started rolling out updates every 10 days. I updated my device to the newest and now that method was no longer working. It really pissed me off because I really wanted to uninstall the bloatware.
But today...After a lot of headbanging and bargaining with Kim Jong un..I finally rooted the Tablet.
But before we start, please go through this thread. https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...-zenpad-c-7-0-z170c-p01z-root-method-t3311752
Read this incase anything goes wrong. But I'm pretty sure it won't. So let's start.
First, download this file and put it on desktop. https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3640170&d=1455053113
Now download adb and fastboot tools. https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3640175&d=1455053186
Extract them into a folder. Open that folder with the files and shift+right click there. Choose open command window here.
In the cmd window, type this
Code:
adb reboot fastboot
Now your tablet will boot into fastboot mode. It will be a running android with green background.
Now in the same cmd window type
Code:
fastboot devices
It should list a device. If not then comment.
After your device is listed you have to type these command. NOW PLEASE PAY ATTENTION !! ONLY TYPE THESE COMMANDS . DO NOT TYPE THE "adb format userdata" and "adb format cache" COMMANDS. IT WILL RESULT IN A BRICKED DEVICE.
So, type these commands.
Code:
fastboot oem asus-go
fastboot oem asus-go confirm
Now the bootloader will be unlocked. Now reboot the device by typing this
Code:
fastboot reboot
This will now start your tablet like normal an d you won't see any difference. Now go back Into fastboot by doing
Code:
Adb reboot fastboot
Now in fastboot, do this
Code:
fastboot boot "C:\Users\{your PC user name here}\Desktop\root-z170c_cg.img"
Now reboot again as we did earlier and you are done. You have rooted your asus Zenpad C 7.0 without loosing any of the data.
Make sure you use SuperSU.
I really don't know where you can mess this up but in case of brick do what @AwesomeLewis24 did.
Firstly, leave fastboot by powering off the

do you have the stock rom? it would be amazing

Download Intel usb driver: software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/intel-usb-driver-for-android-devices
Manually select "Intel Android ADB Interface" driver for the unrecognized device in Device Manager.
Good luck!

Rooted two ZenPads just now using this guide, confirmed working. Note you need to install the Intel adb drivers to access fastboot and "fastboot oem asus-go confirm" can be omitted, it doesn't do anything.
Thank you thenewgengamer! :highfive:
hi
I did according to the manual, but in the Root test, I was told that the device did not have a root
What can I do?
i dont see the device listed.
it is unknown device in the device manager.
tried to install with intel usb but it doesn't work still unknown and it's connecting and disconnecting every 5 seconds.......
so anyone knows why is this happening? is this asus protection????
the device connects and disconnects every 5 seconds when in fastboot.....
is there a way to flash the img without fastboot or pc?
Hello everyone and thank you thenewgengamer for the tutorial.
I am stuck too with fastboot.
The device is not seen anymore by the computer. I tried to install all the drivers but it's the same.
If anyone has a clue to resolve it, it'll be very helpfull
Cheers !
But when i do that why i see no command on my recovery ?
I'm also stuck because my device isn't showing up. Was there an update that broke this method? I've tried this on PC and Mac.
I finally got a computer to recognize my device, and with adb devices there was actually a device listed for the first time. However, I am now having the same disconnect after 5 seconds problem. This is so frustrating. WTF am I doing wrong?
sorry, i have a problem. can we istall magisk in this tablet?
will this work on 5.0.2 P01Y version 12.26.4.57 WW?
Thank you very much
I rooted my P01y device.

P01Y is the same as Z170C. P01Y is the model listed on the device.
lookup the link : https://www.asus.com/Tablets/ASUS_ZenPad_C_70_Z170C/
Worked like a charm on 5.0.2. This is the only rooting method available for this tablet.
Thank you very much!
I was using ressurction remix and had a latest dirty update via twrp and my phone was encrypted automatically. After that when I wish to use the fastboot mode and flash miui 10 beta version through miflash tool whenever i press on refresh of miflash tool the phone automatically disconnect and on the phone top left screen a message is shown "press any key to power off/shutdown".
I am not able to flash miui 10 through miflash and not able use any fastboot commands.
The only command i can use "fastboot devices"
Other than that phone automatically get disconnected.
I am using minimal adb and fastboot 1.4.3

Boot to twrp format data and wipe cache. Boot to fastboot and try other usb 2.0 port.
My problem was solved by reinstalling the adb and fastboot in win 10 .
But thanks a lot for your suggestion.
