[Q] [HELP] Flashing System.img Failed - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi! Im sort of new at this thread and Im a definite nooob when it comes to android stuff
I've tried to flash a pre rooted system.img as well as stock img which i got from a thread in this website
I've made sure to follow the guide thoroughly and have managed to flash the droidboot, recovery and boot img perfectly fine
But everytime I try to flash system.img the cmd prompt always says:
FAILED<command write failed <Invalid argument>>
The fastboot.exe I used has the latest version and Ive tried several times but still get the same result. I also placed all the img files in the same folder with the flashtools. Ive extracted system.img from its .zip as well
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks a lot in advance

Does
fastboot devices
gives you list with devicess connected ?
I think you havent installed properly drivers so fastboot cant install files.
I understand that everything you flash in bootloader mode on the fone.
Not in debugging mode when phone is turned on.

The phone is indeed in bootloader mode and properly connected and recognized by pc.
Entering
fastboot devices
Shows the phone as well.
Can you please elaborate more on the drivers I need to install? Is it for the usb connection or for something else?
Thanks a lot for the reply

try this flastool version.

How to recover my phone

I didn't to a NANDROID backup before trying to flash a new ROM (fail I know). I had factory reset my phone before flashing the new ROM, but the ROM that was flashed hasn't installed correctly and the phone no longer powers completely on. I would like to just throw a different ROM/gapps on the SD card, but I can no longer access it on my computer since the phone will not completely boot up.
Someone suggested somewhere that I mount the USB Storage from recovery, but in the mount + storage recovery section all I see is mount /data, mount /system, and mount /cache, none of which make the GNEX storage available on my computer.
Any suggestions for fixing this problem, or for simply accessing the SD card on my computer without the phone turning completely on?
Thank you.
You can adb push a ROM while booted in a custom recovery. You should check out the stickies in this forum & the general forum.
Download the factory image from google for your phone. Extract it and get system.img from it (you have to extract it a few times). Get adb/fastboot setup by installing the correct drivers and the android sdk (there may be files posted here at xda with just the files needed for adb/fastboot). Then put system.img in the same folder as fastboot.exe (assuming you use windows).
Connect your phone while in bootloader (both volume keys + power) and from a command prompt in that directory, type:
1) fastboot flash system system.img
2) fastboot reboot
It won't wipe anything other than /system.
I'm getting < waiting for device > when executing the first command (fastboot flash system system.img)
I tried a few solutions for this error based on information I could find, such as reinstalling the drivers from Samsung, but nothing seems to have worked. Any help here? I really just need to get any form of a working ROM installed so I can boot the phone.

You need to get your phone to be recognized by your pc. It is a driver problem. Try following some of the steps in this thread.

I was finally able to flash the system.img from Google, but see no change. What is expected to happen once this .img has been pushed?
EDIT: Ended up flashing the entire .zip installation instead of just the system.img file and I have a stock install atm. Thank you for the help!
To Man_Utd, I ended up just re-executing the superboot r5 while in bootloader and it seemed to help recognize the phone..-shrug-.

[Q] No CWM just HTC boot screen

So, I tried to get the latest Cyanogenmod on my phone.

Thanks Thant!
So, I have downloaded Philz, I think I have flashed the recovery.img file over to the phone from CMD shell window.
I have rebooted my phone to fastboot menu and selectet recovery.
The result is still the same. Just the htc boot screen.
I`m sure I`m doing something wrong but cant figure out how. Philz How to uses USB / PC file transfer so I`m unable to use it as a step by step.
Would really appreciate a step by step command overview. If possible with an explanation so that I learn why I do the different commands. Then I wont be so f.. ignorant about these things anymore. Hopefully

If you are able to boot into fastboot, search the latest TWRP and flash it via adb. Connect your device while in fastboot mode and see if it recognize it.
If it does put the recovery file you have downloaded on your desktop and open a command window, press shift and right click at the same time and click on Open command window here.
Type adb devices, if you see a serial number go on and type adb reboot bootloader, then type fastboot flash recovery [ the name of the recovery file you have just downloaded ]
You can do this just by powering on your phone, no need to be already in fastboot mode, just follow the commands.
Press shift and right click : open command window here : adb devices : adb reboot bootloader : fastboot flash recovery [ the name of the recovery file you have just downloaded, do not forget the .img extension ]
fastboot reboot
Once you have a working TWRP you can flash your corresponding backup and go back to stock. The backup will be flashed from TWRP, search for instructions.

http://teamw.in/project/twrp2 and click on the upper right Get TWRP for your device.
Choose your device recovery and download the adb version. That is the .img
Once you have downloaded TWRP put it on your desktop.
Connect your device with your laptop/pc with the unknown sources checked also the usb debugging checked.
Move your mouse over a free space on your desktop, click once just to be sure there is no app or file clicked.
Then press shift and keep it pressed while you right click your mouse.
Press open command window here
in that command window type : adb devices
if you see a serial number type : adb reboot bootloader
then type : fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.0-m8.img
fastboot reboot
openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.0-m8 : This is an example, you will write the name of your recovery but it should be pretty much the same.
Good luck.
Are you familiar with
adb/fastboot commands?

You say "pushing a ROM" with what?
You don't push a ROM with TWRP you just flash it.
Or are you talking about pushing the ROM with fastboot?
If you have TWRP than download a stock backup and flash it.
Take a long look at my profile man and if you look just right you will see I've done and asked some stupid things in my travels here on XDA.I can tell you I remember every phone and ridiculous thing I've done to each of them,I still feel crunchy when I think of the mistakes.

If you can't remember what you did, or at least even try to list in detail the steps you did as best you can remember; it makes it very hard for anyone to help.
Saying you followed some tutorials on an entire website (3 websites actually) doesn't tell us jack, and isn't any better than telling us nothing.
Its not even clear the current condition of the phone. Your OP says TWRP doesn't work, then a later post says you are trying things with TWRP, so presumably you have TWRP. But since you never stated that, we can only guess.
What happens when you try to adb push or sideload? What error messages, does it make the phone reboot, stuck on boot screen, etc?
TWRP working? Bootloader is unlocked? If yes to both of those, you should be able to just adb push a ROM, or put one on removable SD with a card reader attached to your computer. Than flash the ROM in TWRP.

Your device is M8 dual SIM .. mm-su-boot is for M8 single SIM, won't work on your device.

I recently decided to root and install a custom rom on my old stock sprint HTC one m8. I unlocked the boot loader via HTC Dev website. I then flashed the TWRP recovery. Since doing the latter step, it's been booting into fast boot all the time! Did you ever figure out what was wrong with your phone?

You only flashed TWRP onto the phone? Or did you root also?
Not nearly enough info to provide the proper help.
Please do fastboot getvar all, and post the results (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).
What version TWRP?
What version SuperSU did you flash (if you got that far)?

[Q] Hardbrick after overwrite fastboot

Dear All,
I hard bricked my ZE551ML 64GB by using the following sequence:
'fastboot flash fastboot droidboot.img'
'fastboot flash fastboot recovery.img'
'fastboot flash fastboot boot.img'
'fastboot flash fastboot system.img' <-- got error only at this stage
So don't do it it is totally wrong.
Now I got the usb logo when i go to fastboot, see attached image.
I can see a procedure for Zenfone 5 to recover from this error here:
http://www.asus-zenfone.com/2014/11/how-to-unbrick-zenfone-5-and-zenfone-6_8.html
My question is does the same procedure exists for Zenfone 2 and where to download all the files?
Thanks
I believe most of the programs there should also work for the ZF2. I would give this procedure a try, and I wish I could get my hands on a Bricked device to try this. But remember, DON'T use the ZF5/6 images!

What are FZ DnX, IFWI, FW DnX and OS images files ?
How to extract them from the site you mentioned?
Another issue, is my PC refuses to regonise the ZF2 when connecting to USB, saying MTP Android USB driver failed to install....
I have no experience with FZ DnX, IFWI, FW DnX files, but the OS image file is on the site I posted.
Follow my link. Once there, expand the list 'Firmware' and download firmware Version WW_2.15.40.10. Once its downloaded, open the zip file. Inside should be a System.img file. Extract the System.img file into your Fastboot folder. This is the OS image the guide is referring to.
Ask around for the meaning of the other files. Meanwhile, I will research more about those files later tomorrow and get back with any info I can find. Good luck!

install driver manually. see attachment.
When you plug your phone into the computer, does the phone show up in the device management? Typing devmgmt.msc into the windows 7 start menu or the start run menu on XP is the fastest way to get to Device Manager.
Is the device already known by your computer?
What does device manager think it is?
If its unknown, please let us know what the Hardware Ids and Compatible Ids for this device show up as. In device manageer, you can open the devices properties and under the details tab choose Hardware Ids and Compatible Ids. you could screen shot these with Alt + PrtScn and use mspaint to save them off. Otherwise you have to use Ctrl + C to copy them out . You can choose all lines by selecting the first and while holding Shift, select the last. Then you can Ctrl + C to copy all of them out.
Looks like you've flashed incorrectly.
Should be
fastboot flash fastboot droidboot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
What you've essentially done (or tried to do) is flashed over fastboot with 4 different images. Only the first line of commands you used is correct.

Yes got this sequence from this forum,,, anyway I go the phone replaced now and all is fine.
Thanks people for the help.
I won't be rooting this phone until there is a more safe proven way to do it.
I think that avoiding flashing droidboot and recovery, and making sure file hashes match, everything should be fine.
Same issue

I put my 64gb sd in my ZF2 that I originally partitioned for my LG Optimus Pro and I moved a bunch of apps to the SD with link2sd and the first time I rebooted, the same screen with the USB logo and a full progress bar showed up. It won't recognize any fastboot or adb commands even though the ASUS adb is showing up in device manager. Nothing else shows up. In devices and printers I get Moorefield. The phone randomly reboots and goes back to the same screen over and over and each time the asus adb disappears from device manager and then returns. I found a guide on the zenfone 5 that looks promising, using the intel flash tool, however it requires the ZenFone 2 raw firmware files and I can't find them... Hopefully someone could help me salvage my ZF2 cuz I was really beginning love the phone... Thanks ahead of time for anyone that looks into this for me!
i can give you the files you look for. the easiest was is to flash with intel flash tool. Here you can read how th etool works and you found a link there.
I load your files up now here.
sry, had only the files for V5. I will load down and put it here.
boot error and bricked zenfone 2
i have same problem with my phone please send moorefields or other intel based boot drivers.. tanks
please tutor how to fixed it, thanks for advice

Lol @ "got sequence on this forum" and "more safe proven way."
You didn't read the instructions carefully enough and made a big mistake as a result. The correct sequence was given. You just didn't read it carefully. Lesson learned.
Hopefully you can unbrick it.
No offense, but this type of thing is what happens when people just copy/paste and don't understand what they're doing.
What you did was overwrite the fastboot partition each time you flashed. You flashed a 2GB system img on top of your fastboot partition. This probably seemed like it locked up and you either unplugged or turned it off. This likely caused a corrupt partition.
Reading is key when you do anything with your phone.
This is perfectly safe. This is the way it works for all devices. It has nothing to do with the files or the phone. This was 100% user error. Simple as that.

[SOLVED] Phone Stuck in Erecovery and shows error on fastboot screen

Guys i am facing the issue of locked out of using recovery .. need help
so i bymistakely flashed another twrp img into the current twrp from a thread and then it maybe corrupted or something for the recovery
so now i can only access the ercovery
i dont know how to move ahead with this.. i wanted to go back to stock EMUI but no files worked from even the MT servers since they gave error and so i figured to flash another twrp which would mount with pc and i can push through adb shell commands from a thread.
so currently i can access erecovery.. will be of great help if you assist.. thanks!!
i tried to see if i can access the adb devices and nothing shows and i dont know how to get it to working..
Shows error from the screen above to update system.. Will the adb commands work? I tried with the install adb and fast boot drivers on my laptop and pc.. But phone is not recognized in the cmd.. Let me know what steps to take ahead..
I had tge same problen, What I did was in fastboot I flashed system.IMG and then flashed the kernel and my phone booted up when I tried to go into recovery I had none so I flashed TWRP again and it succeeded, here are the fast boot commands, fastboot flash system system.img and the kernel fastboot kernel kernel. Img, I hope it works for you.
HELP!
