Hi everyone,
I really need your help, I need a tot file for F180K so that I could return to the official stock version.
So dump of me, I flashed KDZ to convert it to E975 but i don't get a network signal anymore. I flashed back to korean rom, f180k20g (jb version) but to no avail, still the same. If someone kindhearted would generously provide a tot file for this device, I would greatly appreciate it.
P.S.
Thanks to the guys at the forum, I learned a lot from you.

Hi,
I have the same problem with the mobile network. Now I try to download the new F180K201_00 and I'll flash it hoping that it helps....
But I have a copy of F180K10H_00 that suit you.
But a question. Did you try factory hard reset and wipe? Did you flash the right baseband?
Ciao

Yes i tried factory hard reset only. I don't know how to wipe. I already tried F180K20G firmware but it is still not working. I haven't flashed any baseband because there is no available baseband img file yet for F180K. I already tried to flash anything from E97510a philippines or 10b HK version but still not working. I hope someone can provide a tot file so that we can boot back from scratch.
EDIT:
The only thing that I regretted is that I didn't back up the efs partition before I flash. If only I have learned about the freegee stuff earlier.

Hi I just found the baseband for all F180 models in a Vietnamese website, there is a file .bat to execute for all models.
Source:http://www.tinhte.vn/threads/optimu...p-root-recovery-up-rom-4-1-2-fix-loi.1816719/
I droped the file on mediafire here: http://www.mediafire.com/?qbnu22y4sx7kf0n
I hope it works.
Wipe is easy with adb.
C:>adb reboot recovery
then waiting....waiting... waiting (it takes long times, also more than 10 minutes
If someone need F180K10H_00.kdz i can upload it. Tell me only where I can copy it....
You can get the KDZ from here: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=20

Yeah I tried it already but it's not working. Probably I need to erase everything first, CACHE and SYSTEM. How do I get to fastboot mode on the phone? Pressing Volume down + power only brings me to Factory Reset Mode.

Yes bro, I think I need the ICS kdz first so that I can unlock my bootloader using the freegee. I can't unlock it using the freegee-beta for JB. I already tried the adb reboot recovery, factory reset, still nothing. Appreciate it bro if you can upload it.
I just convert my F180K to E975 EU , rooted the phone and flash the baseband , all is OK :good:

Hey guys. I've had my Zenfone 2 for almost 2 month now. I'll include a screenshot of my current version, but basically I'm on 2.13 but there is already a 2.18 but it never finds any when I search for them. Am I not doing something?
Thanks

Have you rooted you Zenfone? You can always update it manually if not but downloading the OTA updates and putting them on the SD card.
Nope. Haven't done anything to it. And yes I know but I shouldn't have to manually do it. Know what I mean?

OTA's are released in batches gradually, you might be in the last batches of OTA triggers, i would advice to update manually.

The thing is, I'm not exactly sure which version I can use to update. Can someone guide me to the exact ota for me. Also can I jump straight to 2.18 or do I have to go to 2.15 then 2.17,etc?. Thanks a lot.
So i downloaded WW firmware "UL-Z00A-WW-2.14.40.19-user" from the asus support page and i went to flash it via recovery but it just gives an error. I tried renaming the file to "MOFD_UPDATE" but that also just gave me error. I then was able to get it pass the error screen to show the recovery menu but there is only update via adb AND i noticed it says CN at the very top. I'm confused. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Go to this link, you just have to download the update and not all the 1gb zip from asus support.
http://www.asus-zenfone.com/p/fota-center.html
For your version it's the 1st one 2.13.40.13 to 2.14.40.19 then next one and go on.
Hope that helps.
P.S. Put it in the internal storage of your phone, just drop it there not in folder. Reboot your phone and you will get a system update notification.
There is a Thread dedicated to this .... I would recommend reading it from top to bottom and analyse each step accordingly!! you would be able to figure it out!!

Thanks man. I've been trying this all day yesterday. I download it and put it on the storage, NOT in any folders.(I removed my Micro-SD) I even tried renaming it "UL-Z00A-WW-2.14.40.19-user.zip". Still no pop-ups. Even after restarting.

Yeah i did this. I flashed over the recovery,fastboot, and boot files(took it from "old" folder seeing i'm on 2.13.40). It flashed fine, it now says WW in recovery. However i am stillNOT able to get any pop ups for updates after putting the zip files on my internal storage.
No you must flash lastest img. Then go to recovery and apply update via adb I think.
The zip file for lastest rom is about 1gb.

This MAY brick your phone. DO NOT USE you can unbrick with this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/guide-brick-soft-hard-bricked-zenfone-2-t3284256
OP be careful of what you do to your device. I would research it more before jumping into anything, because you do have a potential to brick the device.
Thanks

Why return to 5.0 só fast...is more easy wait for oficial ota of 6.0.1 and do adb sideload!
I want to downgrade as well, I've found several guides, but I'm afraid I'll brick my phone.
I saw in one place that sideloading the stock 5.0 firmware from the asus website could work... would this be a valid solution? Would it be as simple as sideload with adb the stock 5.0 firmware, if I'm in the 6.0 already?

Hi, I do not speak English very well, but I'll try.
First go to the website of Asus, and download the firmware .. 184 or this link (http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/Ze...user.zip?_ga=1.147549438.850793534.1463019251) and put the external SD Card!!!
NOTE: If your bootloader is similar to the image (with the blue letters ..), you just need to step 3 of this my turorial
ht*tp://www*androidheadlines*com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/asus-zenfone-2-google-howto-1.jpg (remove "*" again^^)
1. Go to this page (https://www.techmesto.com/root-zenfone-2/) and follow the steps of the second method..
1.1 Download Z00A_WW_2.20.40.184 version (https://mega.co.nz/#F!k4MHiAgL!dVuOKeH3eokcwPSNI79ffw)
1.2 Download and extract FlashTools (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3301263&d=1431011927)
1.3 Extract Z00A_WW_2.20.40.184_system_w_root.zip (for step 1.1) and put the "system.img" in the folder of FlashTools together with "boot.img", "droidboot.img" and "recovery.img"
2. Now follow the steps of the second method (https://www.techmesto.com/root-zenfone-2/), from step 7 to 11;
3. Also I was stuck in the bootloader after this procedure... BUT, you need to download this file (the first method): http://www.mediafire.com/download/v6m7n9j0gqins9b/CWM_Zenfone_2_Intel.zip;
3.1 And follow the steps from 1 to 9 (the first method): https://www.techmesto.com/root-zenfone-2/... EXCEPT: The steps include the root (you do not need the root ..)
3.2 When you are already in CWM recovery, only install the firmware 184 (of start.. of Asus) which is in the external SD Card ... and end ^^.
3.3 I recommend wipe data / factory after starting the device first time...
I have helped

Bootloop is normal as seen on the tutorial.
I think that's normal since Asus will replace their default mail app to Gmail once MM final is release. same goes for my phone, Asus Mail doesn't come preinstalled.

I flashed the Sprint firmware and had data working on my XT1766 after it got it's carrier update, the Sprint firmware does not soft brick the phone as I flashed it and can confirm it doesn't soft brick it, so you are incorrect in saying that.
I'm not sure if I did something wrong but after trying this, my phone kept saying, "phone stopped working". I had backed up my phone so I restored it. Any ideas on what might have happened?

Oh, I never tried this method. I used rsd lite to flash the firmware (the one op says will brick you, it didn't by the way). After flashing new firmware I restored only data, nothing system or boot related, and have had no issues.

The steps are there. Just don't use the root part if you don't want root. Once you switch the files, flash the service file.xml with rsdlite.

While Turing on the phone " BAD KEY" msg pops up on
Black display for 4-5 seconds and then mobile shows Motorola logo...

That's normal if you unlock the bootloader. Flash the no verity opt encrypt, or magisk, and it will change from bad key to n/a. But there will always be a message if you unlock the bootloader.
I know you said you don't need root, so that bad key message is there to stay.

N/A will be there. But you can flash a new boot logo to kinda hide it. Instead of a black screen, any logo you want, maybe with a white strip at the top to hide it. I'll get you a link.
Here are some good ones. https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...om-boot-logos-converted-t3759320/post75787882
And here is the guide to make your own

Just don't accept the update. You can root by flashing magisk. You will still receive update notification. You'll need to disable the moto update app. I forget which one exactly. But your phone shouldn't be able to do ota updates once you are rooted with twrp installed. The update will fail.
here is the root thread.

Thank you. I wish I had known this. I had to flash the stock recovery, etc for the updates to work. A little bit of an unnecessary hastle.

Ota updates will likely always fail if you have twrp, or have modified the system in any way. The ota performs many checks (assert props) to see if the system is clean. If any asserts fail, the ota will fail. Even restoring the stock recovery doesn't guarantee the ota will work.
Hey All,
Thanks in advance for any help.
I just received the AL00 and ran the update which gave me EMUI 9.0.0.200.
I thought for sure we were already at 9.1 something.
I just want to make sure that via OTA updates I should only be on 9.0.0.200 or am I missing something and should be on a newer version of EMUI.
Thanks again everyone.
I bought AL00 a few months ago, but late enough not to be able to unlock it, and I still did not get any update above 9.0.0.200 :/
Thanks for the input...much appreciated. Are we ever going to get 9.1 you think?
( if the phone model is EVR-AL00 ) please change the Region settings as china in both app-gallery and Hi-Care and try to update via Hi-care
it will update to 9.1 it worked for me... good luck
Thanks so much, that worked. The only problem now is that the update is showing in system and when I go to update the 9.1 is there but it's greyed out and won't let me select it ?

If you're not able to to update via HiCare, you can try the dload method in this post. Select the AL00 link.
I will certainly give that a try...do I need to unzip the DL first? Thanks again in advance for all your help, I appreciate very much.

Yes. Unzip it. Then open up the "Software" folder and copy the entire dload folder to the root of your SD card/USB OTG. After that turn off your phone. Then power it back on by holding all the 3 buttons until you see the Software Update screen pop up.
You are a ROCKSTAR!...worked like a charm, thanks so much for your help.

Which version did you upgrade to? Evr-AL00-9.1.0.127 or 131 ?
I could only find the .127 but it seems ok

Please note that by using this firmware and update method, OTA updates will be disabled and you won't be able to check for updates via HiCare & System. The only way to further update will be to manually download the newest firmware and use the HSTool/HiSuite patch methods.
This is because:
1. These firmwares are signed with EVR-LGRP1-CHN version which will eventually display as EVR-AL00 after install. Because of the difference in versions, HiCare can't check for updates via OTA
2. Since the only way to install the firmware on locked bootloaders is to alter the PC host file, this means that Huawei's cloud server does not recognise this ffw version and thus needs to be bypassed, which means that further updates will need to use the bypass method.
Thanks Yogi...I think I want the recovery version though. Thanks for your help anyways.

Thanks again Zephels, I appreciate all your help. Any chance that there is a recovery version of 131 yet and if not, does that upgrade I did make it possible for OTA or HiCare?

I'm not able to source the firmware as of yet, but it is possible to check for OTA since you have the official firmware.
