Hello,
I flashed a stock rom for my zenfone 2 Z00A without any problem but because I have installed TWRP on my phone to test out cm12.1 and cm13 I can no longer do the OTA as they come in. I have searched through the forums and have tried to edit the OTA file as described but it always errors and won't install. I did a backup when I first installed TWRP, if I use that recovery file will it bring back my phone to stock or will I still have TWRP? If i will is there a way to remove TWRP and go back to the stock recovery so I can install the OTA's the normal way?
Thank you,
David
use fastboot to install the stock recovery

Or edit ota to be compatible with TWRP. It's a 30 second procedure.
Thank you, after searching I finally found on asus's own blog a post that had the link to the proper recovery.IMG file. Thank you both for the help. David

Hi David. Can you supply the link to the stock rom that you used and the recovery image please?Did you flash anything else besides these two?
Hello,
What I did was;
1) download the latest full firmware from this site http://www.asus-znfone.com/2016/01/full-firmware-zenfone-2-ze551ml-V2.20.40.160.html and installed it using twrp as I would any custom rom.
2) After I went through all the set up I was alerted to a system update. Before I did the update I replaced TWRP with the restore.img from this link
https://mega.nz/#F!k4MHiAgL!dVuOKeH3eokcwPSNI79ffw!Z1N1EbKa using fastboot flash recovery recovery.img command.
3) After rebooting it is possible to do all the OTA updates.
Hope this helps. David Waldie

Hi all, I finally read good news for our MM Stock: it is finally almost bug-free. I read that only the Wi-Fi bug still here, but wait like 10-20 secs of connection doesn't kill me.
So now I am fully ready to update but i don't know anything.
Here is my idea:
1) Do a full erase (Delete every folder/file).
2) Install the full FW of MM .184 downloaded from asus (I don't want a update just a clear install).
Unlucky I read that Asus Flash tool can be a bit crazy with strange errors and maybe can delete important partitions (like unkown imei, lost mac, ect..)
So, can someone please use a bit of his/her time to explain me what can i do? Like a step-to-step guide?
Thanks you very much,
LightDestory.
which firmware number you are currently on?

My phone is untouched: no root, no bt unlocked and my current version is the latest avaible of LP via OTA (so the .198).
I have only the full FW WW-4.21.40.184.zip. The 2.20.40.184 (there is a mistake because it is 2.20.40.198) is LP... but I want to install MM.
Thansk for the fast reply. But, excuse me... I need more info!
I am a bit confused between flash via zip or a raw firmware... I just need the safer way that can erase all and do a clean install..

Hi, thanks for the reply.
This is the "update LP to MM" way... is there a way to clear everything and install?
After you do it then factory reset it.
Sent from my ASUS_Z00AD using Tapatalk
I also updated from LP .198 to MM .184 because I heard a lot of problems have been resolved and I am very happy to say that I've had no problems whatsoever. The sound and mini freeze in games problem that I had on MM .134 was solved as well. The battery life is also good. The performance is good, phone works like a charm and I didn't even do a factory reset, I only upgraded and that's it! Kudos to Asus for finally fixingthe problems!
you don't need to do anything. just go into recovery. then click factory data and reset. then clear caxhe partition. then apply update from adb. and then install MM version you downloaded from asus via sideload command.

Thanks for all the replies. I need just the last info, help me to understand.
1)Go to Recovery and do a factory reset and wipe cache partition (OK... I know how do that)
2) "Apply Update from adb" what means? Factory reset will make my phone like a older version of LP and I have to flash first the .194? or by clicling on 'apply update from adb' the phone will go in a "download mode" and so go to step 3?
3) Sideload MM (OK... i read on zentalk the sideload command)
EDIT:
I am now with STOCK 6.0.1 MM!
I got 2 bootloops but on the third flash the phone booted! WOW!
Moderator can close this.
Thanks again for the help!
Hi,
I have the flickering screen problem with my phone and it is out of warranty so i can't send it back to repair.
I tried upgrading to the latest firmware, tried factory reset, wipe cache, installing google launcher, enabling the HW thing in developer mode and nothing worked.
I read that WW_2.12.40.11 version doesn't have the screen problem and i want to try it, but i wanna be sure i'm doing it the right way.
1) I read that i can't just put the wanted firmware in my phone and install the update but i must also flash the matching recovery to flash the wanted version - is it true?
2) Can i downgrade straight from my version to the lower one because i think the other way around, i need to have higher version for upgrading to the higher version i now have.
3) Where can i find the adb driver for this?
Thanks
You can downgrade via ext sd card using the downgrade version from asus > 52.20.40.196 LP which when installed , reboots to 2.20.40.196LP
When putting WW-UL- 52.20.40.196.zip.zip ,make sure to put an extra .zip on the end in file manager or in sd from pc first and reboot.
If you then put WW-UL-2.12.40.11-user.zip.zip (extra .zip) on sd or in file manager . You might get that to give you notification after a reboot too. Although i have not tested to downgrade that far .
You must use the first 52.20 blah blah fw to initially downgrade first though. Ignore this and you are liable to brick. Here >

OK, it's weird, i did flash the 2.12.40.11 recovery.img to the phone using adb and it was said in the console that the process completed, but now when i enter recovery mode it still shows me 4.21.40.223 version.
OK, I did downgrade with your method and it works great, but when i try to downgrade fro that version to the version i want to try i get error that i cant install the package over the existing newer version.
Just to inform.

If you want to downgrade to such an old version, find the .raw file of that version (search here on XDA) and flash it via Asus Flash Tool.

If you have all the img partitions you can always try installing via fastboot commands but i really recommend using a raw with Asus Flash Tool...

Hi, thanks i'l try that.
does it matter in what order i flash this 3 files?
Edit: If i already flashed the ROM can i just flash the boot.img and droidboot.img or do i need to do the whole process including flashing the ROM again?
Is your screen flickering problem like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRuxTefNcKw
If its like that I was told its a LCD hardware problem which gets fixed by replacing LCD.
Update:
Well, I installed firmware 2.12.40.11 and it worked fine for several days but then the screen started to flicker again.
i started to update the devices with OTA updates and then i saw that in firmware WW_2.20.40.174 the screen didn't flicker.
i had further updates and then the screen started to flicker again.
i tried to flash recovery.img, boot.img and droidboot.img but not the device only enters fastboot mode but when i try to enter normal boot or recovery mode, it only comes back to fast boot mode.
any suggestion what should i do to unbrick the phone?
Thanks
Hi,
Below are the steps to rollback to Marshmallow from Nougat. I've only tested it on BLN-L22 so I don't know if it works with other variants.
Your bootloader would be locked. However, you can unlock again using the old unlock code.
You can find firmware of your version @ Honor Official Site
Download the Marshmallow firmware from here Honor India Official Support
Unzip it and place the dload folder in the sdcard (internal storage wont work)
Power off the device.
Press Volume Down + Volume Up + Power key to log into Huawei software upgrade
Let it finish. Now installation is done. But now when you will boot, it will bootloop and go to Huawei ercovery. Simply select the shutdown option
Once the device is off, press Volume Up + Power. This will take you to Huawei Recovery
Wipe data and Wipe Cache
Restart. You are back to MarshMallow
Kindly do the above at your own risk. It worked for me, but it may brick for you.
Edit : User @honor6xak was able to rollback after wiping the system using TWRP and following above steps. If there is no system, there would be no firmware for Honor to overwrite. It would be as good as flashing fresh.
Method 2.
1. Make a nandroid backup (complete backup) and save it somewhere safe. Just in case things get messy.
2. Download the official firmware (Marshmallow) from the Honor official site.
3. Extract the dload folder from the firmware and put it into an sdcard (physical one).
4. Reboot to TWRP and wipe data + system. Twrp will warn you about wiping system. Once you do it. Power off the device.
5. Press volume up + volume down + power this will take you to Huawei recovery and will auto install the firmware if the folder is there in sdcard.
This is a tad bit risky but if you have nandroid backup then you can be on a safe side. But still do it only if you are sure. I don't have money to pay if you Sue me
The above link is for the Indian firmware for the US firmware (L24) you'll have to go to the us website. I got a little confused earlier trying to download it, just thought I'd give a heads up to anybody else. I'd link it but I had to create a new account as my old one is apparrently tied to an email I don't remember.

Yes, that's the reason I specified the BLN number. You don't need to login to have the firmware download. If you can give the link we can update the post.
Edit : I've updated site for Official firmware of various regions in the main post

If you flash these official version you'll get unrooted and your bootloader would be locked again. But you can unlock the bootloader again and root also.
Since it is from official website I doubt it will have any virus
So hacky but... you can find the 'rollback package' here http ://www, hihonor, ]com/us/support/details/index,html?[DOC_ID=94205] and the firmware here http ://www, hihonor, [com/us/support/details/index.html?][DOC_ID=94205]
Just remove the spaces, brackets and replace periods with commas.

Hello bro,
I several times tried the method that you mentioned in your thread using a memory card but it always failed. I'm very curious how it worked for you. Right now I unlocked and rooted my Honor 6x BLN-L22.
I just want to know if your phone was unlocked when you tried this method.
If yes I'll give it a try. It might work this time.
Thank you

You can do one thing I don't know if it work but you can try it. Download firmware finder from play store. Search for the latest nougat firmware then select download. There would be two files 1. Update.zip 2. BLNxxxx some name. Download the second file. Then flash it with twrp.
Now do the procedure as I described in the first post. When I did the roll back I was on the unofficial nougat version.
I'll search for some other method. Sorry it didn't work for you.

Thanks a lot bro. I'll try that.
It worked for me on my BLN-L24, rolling it back to I could exchange it. However I had to do a couple other steps first to get it to work, so here's my full steps that worked for me:
1. If you have twrp or another custom recovery, flash it back to stock.
1a. To find the stock recovery I had to get it from the zip file here since I'm a dumbass and didn't make a backup: If you have twrp or another custom recovery, flash it back to stock.
2. If you have a custom bootloader, flash it back to stock.
3. Download and extract the stock rom. Flashing it from zip will not work.
4. Copy the UPDATE.app to /sdcard/dload/ (not a physical sdcard, if that's what's confusing you.
5. Turn the device all the way off.
6. Press and hold volume up, and volume down, then press and hold power until the phone starts booting, immediately release it once you see something on the screen.
It should now 'update' your phone back to EMUI 4.1.

What did you do that you are stuck at TWRP?
Tell the history then we can suggest something
Download the update_data_full_BLN-L22_channel_in.zip and place it on sdcard.
You can then flash it with TWRP

You cannot directly flash the 4.1 file on your nougat. If you want to do that then you have to use the procedure I gave in the first page.
The link I gave is for nougat version. Basically, when I had a similar problem like you I flashed the 733mb file and my phone was able to boot.
Wipe data in TWRP
Flash the 733mb file
Wipe cache
I hope it works

Do you have a WW version with WW fingerprint? In case you have a WW version with CN fingerprint FOTA versions won't work!
How about keeping rooted using FULL WW FIRMWARE 2.2GB?
FOTA update will work on Tencent with WW rom. Just rename FOTA zip file exactly as full ROM

Download full rom, place in root of storage, reboot, update. Don't select restart, select later. Open magisk manager, click to install magisk, select after ota, force install ok then reboot. Job done, root maintained

I forgot about the magisk part and rebooted losing root in the process.
Any way to extract the boot image so I can patch it with magisk? It do I need to wait for the RAW ROM?

Well I have just asked over on the Vietnam Telegram group if there's an ETA on the patched root img. Hopefully I'll get a response soon and will let you know ASAP. But yeah, once that's released you can go ahead and flash it for root using the cmd "fastboot flash boot xxxx.img"
Hopefully you can/don't mid waiting a couple of days for it to be released - until then, you'll just have to be unrooted
I'll keep you posted...

Thanks a lot, I have been researching this a bit and I'm going to try to get the boot image from the fulll ROM payload.bin. there are tools for this, if I'm successful than magisk can take care of the rest.
I'll keep you posted as well.
:good:

Just move the zip update from downloads folder and paste it into the main area where other folders are stored, like downloads/music/ringtones etc etc... Don't place it in any folder, just place it in the same location as those other folders...
From there, restart the phone and when update is detected, choose to update but DON'T select to reboot once it is done. Instead, open Magisk Manager and select 'install' for Magisk (not magisk manager), then select 'Install to Inactive Slot (After OTA). Install it and reboot. That's it, root will be maintained :good:

Did you download the full rom or the small ota? If it's the small ota you need to rename it to exact name of the full ota, or just download the full... I went for the full rom. Did you restart the phone after?
