As the title says , i'm stuck in this situation with my M8 (Sorry in advance for my bad english, it's not my first language)
Iesterday i ****ed up because i tried to install the newest OTA with a custom recovery. Obviously i couldn't do it because it gave me errors in TWRP, so i found the stock backup of the newest updates here in the forum and i installed it. Until now, no problem.
The fact is that after i installed the 2.11.708.2 software (with the recovery) i saw that there was the 3.32 patch (which was the 4.4.4 update for Android) and i said to myself "i installed the original recovery, let's see if the OTA works now". So, that's what i did, i downloaded the last software update from the phone; when it start rebooting to install the update it went in a bootloop, where i can only see the white start screen with "HTC" in green.
I can go to the bootloader, but from there i'm stuck: if i select Recovery it just restart the bootloader, showing for like 2 second the white initial screen with the writings that says "Entering Recovery..."but nothing really happening. Same thing if i go to Factory Reset.
Tried connect it by USB at the pc but with nothing new. The HTC Sync Manager opens up but it say "No plugged phone". By ADB if i write "adb devices" it's just blank and cant reboot or something like that.
Please tell me there is a solution and i didnt just threw 400 euros in the trash D:

If you can enter the booloader then just flash a custom recovery via fastboot and flash a backup.

You need to uninstall HTC Sync from your PC. After you have used it to install the drivers, you don't need it anymore, and it will make it so that your PC doesn't recognize your phone in debugging. Hope that helps.

first, excuse me for the english. ok, i installed the cyanogenmod and then i wiped the memory and the cash because i wanted to give the defy to other person.
so i installed the cyanogenmod from the card - the stable version or something similar - and that was all. the phone get stuck on the motorola logo, and can't get in recovery mode, only have the bootloader, and tried to install different ROMs, but the result is always the same - it can't boot and get stuck on the logo.
anyone can help me, please?
i did have the same did u soulve that proplem man !?
nope, i'm trying almost every advice that i can find in the net, but still no results.
hopefuly someone here can help to solve this issue.
What is the EXACT ROM you flashed at first, and what are the others you tried flashing?
Can you get to stock recovery?
Go into bootloader, plug in your phone, use rsd lite to flash an .sbf.
Edit-
If its stuck still, try now to enter recovery, clear cache, then factory reset. Happened to me when i tried to install CM7 from stock 2.2
this should get it stock again.

@iYossi i flashed JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_177-005_NORDIC_SIGN_SIGNED_UCAJRDNEMARAB1B80AA03A.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNFRYORTNORD_P003_A001_HWp3_Service1FF then i tried the same and few others.
and no, i can't get to stock recovery i have access only to the bootloader. when i flash a ROM with RSD (the latest version) it get fine until the moment it tries to boot, then the RSD tell me that i have to boot the phone manualy and then it stuck and go to nowhere
@dyinghero27 i can't enter into recovery.
No, not recovery, load bootloader, flash with the newest stock sbf (think I seen 3.4.4 in Dev forum)
Edit* just like I suspected, I'm pretty sure your having problems with downgrading, you need to flash the newest sbf.

I have the same problem, if I put the battery in a cel from a friend and let's take a charge, until I make time for the 2.2, then I put it loads to 2.2 in normal outlet ....
but I'm still the problem with the Motorola logo, so I can enter the bootloader, I can not get into recovery, do not know what to do ...
sorry for bad english
so i installed a lot of different versions on the defy and the result is the same, the phone get' stuck on the motorola logo. can anyone help me, please?
ok i tried a version that seems to work but now the display doesn't start. i have the defy connexted via usb and when i push the power button it connect/disconnect to the pc but the display remains off.
why i think that this version seems to work? because when i flash it to the defy it reboot the phone and says pass. the other versions stucks on reboot and the RSD says that i have to reboot manualy but the phone stucks on the motorola logo.
anyone have an idea, why the display is off. when i try to flash the phone i have no problems.

Hmm, sure you have the right sbf and it didn't corrupt in download? Also do you gave the latest Motorola drivers, if so even uninstalling and reinstalling them might help. The other thing I can think of is a virus or an antivirus that could be interfering?
Sent from my DROID2 using xda premium
i´m not sure if i have installed the right sbf, because i tried various and only this one seems to work ... partly. the others stuck on the motorola logo when RSD try to restart them, after the install. i suspect that this has to do with my empty battery.
i´ve cutted an usb cable and connected the red and the black wire directly to the pins, because i had the "the battery is low ... cannot program" problem, but i'm not sure if this is sufficient to get it back again.
Hello all, I have searched for more than a couple hours and just seem to be getting nowhere. Here's the deal: I have an HTC One M8 with TWRP, root, an unlocked bootloader and S-ON. I want to install Lollipop, but can't take the OTA.
I know a little bit about what I'm doing, I tried to flash a rooted stock ROM but it didn't take. I wiped all directories but the internal storage. Also wiped the Dalvik, `but I could not get the update to take. I tried a few other things but out of fear of bricking my phone I wasn't very adventurous. I flashed the backup I made beforehand and it worked fine.
I think I have the wrong file...? Could my S-ON be the problem?
Sprint HTC One M8 (HK edition)
Android: v4.4.4
Sense: v6.0
Kernel: 3.4.0
Baseband: v1.08.20.0916
Build:3.31.654.2
All I want to do is flash lollipop. Will I have to lock the bootloader and go back to stock recovery to do it? Can I use adb sideload to install it via adb?
Thank you for your time.

I'm pretty sure my phone is toast.
PLEASE HELP, it worked just fine before I took your advice...
I relocked the bootloader and verified it multiple times before doing this. I made sure everything was exactly the way it was explained in the instructions, all files were correct.
I put the phone into fastboot, which I verified with adb.
I ran the Sprint_HTC_One_M8_HK_4.20.654.10_RUU .exe file and followed the instructions.
Both the program and pphone are currently frozen. They have been this way for almost 2 hours now.
The phone is stuck at the black HTC splash screen and the installer says
Updating...(0/7)... #(<--- these dots are still in motion like its installing)
Updating the ROM image on your Android phone...
[color=redPlease do not remove the USB connection from the Android phone or launch any programs during the update process.[/red]
Remember, this operation will take about 10 minutes.

Ok, the phone is not recognized by adb but is still recognized by fastboot, can I reboot it into TWRP by using
Code:
fastboot reboot recovery
then just flash the backup I made before all this crap started?
*EDIT* RESOLVED
Never mind, I resolved it myself. I just typed
Code:
fastboot reboot
and hit enter. It booted right up.

I looked through it and all user made folders are gone, but all user downloaded apps are still there. I also noticed that superSU root access was off, but the 'apply on boot' option was turned on, could this be what crashed the updater?
followed a tutorial (Cnncted's youtube clip - How to root the ASUS ZenFone 2 ) to root
Accidentally (very stupid) pressed the update option when an OTA update showed up yesterday (Jul 8 2015), and after that the phone won't start properly - stopped at in search of incredible...
No luck with trying to boot into recovery mode (power + volume up). It just vibrates once and the screen is black. Trying to flash recovery image with ADB and flashtool etc, but the MTP usb connection failed. If I connect it to the PC using the USB cable and then press the power button to turn it on (stuck in that ..."incredible" screen), device manager shows the Z200AD name with a yellow exclamation mark beside, and Asus ZenUI software will automatically start. But it's not really recognized by the PC.
So...if you have any suggestions for me to try, please let me know and that would be greatly appreciated!

p.s. This is a US version, so the it's the WW sku?
Same problem here. I have a rooted 551ML and on July 6th I received an OTA update. I installed it and I'm stuck in boot loop. I have hundreds of family pictures in the internal memory.
The good news is that I have access to boot loader and recovery.
I could not find any custom recovery for Zenfone 2. They are not out yet, right? Is there any way to copy the internal memory of the phone (that doesnt load the OS) to the SD card? Or to paste a file img.boot taken from a downloaded official rom and copy it over the corrupted one on the phone's memory?
If you can access the bootloader, you can do this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/guide-to-apply-ota-bootloop-rooted-zf2-t3127835
Btw, there is a custom recovery out there (TWRP, check the Development section), but you will need an unlocked bootloader to use it in your state (I think).
US version is the WW SKU btw. Hope this helps.

Joel, thanks a lot! I will give it a try.
fingers and toes crossed...
I faced this problem too. All I did was to flash the boot.img of my version using fastboot,
Then I flashed the firmware, without factory reset I started the phone.
I was continiously getting an error "com.android.process has stopped". Ignoring that, I just backed up my whole data. Did a factory reset. Updated
Boom!! Everything was normal... I hope this helps
Just a quick update - followed the method in the link that Joel referred to, and everything worked beautifully. I did get two error messages like “the contact stopped working..." “The process android.process.acore has stopped working.” I fixed this problem by clearing the data/cache from the "contact" app, and that did the trick without a factory reset etc.
I unrooted the device using SuperSU. The fastboot screen, however, still shows a random serial number 0123456789ABCDEF. Is there a way to revert it back to the real one? I do see the real one from settings - about - status.

Pretty sure rooting didn't affect my fastboot screen at all.
actually i rooted my zenfone 2 and there was an OTA and i tried to install it without un-rooting my phone. the phone would not turn on and it gets stuck in the boot animation.
the phone wasn't detected by the ADB in my pc so i thought of installing some custom recovery, thought that could help.
i tried installing TWRP but i did not unlock the bootloader and now i am not able to enter in recovery mode either, everytime i try to get in the recovery modethe phone restarts and goes to fastboot mode.
please help.

I was having a similar issue where adb wouldn't recognize my phone but fastboot was detecting it. What I ended up doing was grabbing the latest stock firmware zip from asus, transferring it to my external sd card via adapter and renamed it to MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip. Then go into fastboot (restart with volume up key) and proceed to recovery. It should automatically update your system from there. The only bummer is having to re-configure everything.

i tried it with prerooted as well as the stock rom, it did not work for me. isn't there any way to flash CM12.1 using the fastboot ?
I have a rooted zenfone 2. I checked for an update. Not knowing the risks of updating system while rooted, I installed the update, and now my phone is stuck on the boot animation screen. It is stuck on "Asus In search of incredible" screen with the turning gear. I can access fast boot mode and recovery mode, but can't start the phone. My phone has Android system recovery installed, not ClockworkMod or TWRP. I tried to install a different recovery, but my PC doesn't read the phone. I thought that wiping the data and cache will help, but didn't. Help me. I'm a 15 year old noob. My parents will kill me!! Also, I haven't tried to install any ROM's on it. So that's out of the picture.
And neither adb, not fastboot can detect the phone.
My phone is rooted, but the bootloader is not unlocked. I was going to unlock it, but thought of backing data up first. I was trying to find the backup app, but accidentally tapped on system update app. I thought there wouldn't be any harm in checking for an update... Apparently their was a lot of harm.
I also tried installing twrp recovery, but it gets stuck on "Waiting for device"
I'm in dire need of help.
I just need to find a way to switch USB debugging on...... That'll fix all my problems
thanks in advance.
I have the Z008 model, NOT the Z00A.

Hey there!, have you fixed it yet? I'm having the same problem i'm trying this method wwwdottechmestodotcom/recover-bricked-asus-zenfone-2/

Dear XDA Community,
in past 2 months i've been using CM13, constantly having some trouble with apps involving the camera, such as the camera app(surprise) and e.g. snapchat.
So yesterday I decided to update my CM Build, not knowing it would be to CM14 and with this Android 7.
So resulting from this I experienced a lot of issues with different apps, especially the google ones and for example Instagram. I DID NOT Upgrade my twrp, which was pretty stupid as I found out.
So this morning I checked again for CM Updates and Updated to Version Nightly...25 I think... but because I did not update my TWRP it did absolutely nothing except bricking my phone.
I already followed through the Guide for Hard Bricked OP3s (both steps) "http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-hard-bricked-t3405700"
Though it sadly did not work for me. The Recovery tool and all works but when I want to boot my Phone the md5checksum pops up after the OP3 Logo and it tells me that everythings fine except "boot: failed".
I tried the procedure of the Hard Brick fix over and over again but nothing seems to work. I am fairly new to this whole Custom Rom stuff so I have absolutely no clue what do to.
Does anyone have any idea that could help?
Best Regards
Aliasalex
Try fastboot flashing the whole rom.
how? i dont have a factory img.
i tried flashing CM14 again and OxygenOs OTA. Currently i am getting Cache, Boot and System Failed.
In the meanwhile I managed to get twrp installed, but trying to install OS or CM via twrp didnt work either
//edit: ran the msm download tool again. Now only Boot is failing. tried flashing a boot.img via fastboot but didnt work
//edit2: when flashing the boot.img via fastboot my phone boots and works. When restarting without PC it still has cache and boot failure in md5checksum
try the 1st method you mentioned in the OP but flash https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591020540821926 . from what I understand, you need to full write all your partitions since they seems corrupted.

You can't access Fastboot because of that Kedacom driver, if you right click it you should be able to change the driver.

Nice, whdn you boot you still get those errors in red letter something with "failed boot". Then manually flash the boot. Img provided in the folder where you ran the Unbrick tool from. Command for Fastboot "fastboot devices", then "fastboot flash boot boot.img". Make sure that Kedacom is not in device manager when you are accessing Fastboot.
