[SOLVED] In dire need of help! (bricked phone) - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello!
I'm a newb when it comes to rooting phones and such, and I have made a huge mistake. I rooted my phone to remove the ridiculous amount of bloatware that ASUS put on the phone. I saw that I could get an OTA update, so I installed it, and it bricked my phone. I did not know that you are NOT supposed to do that while rooted. So yeah, perhaps I should've looked more into rooting so I wouldn't do something stupid. Now, my phone gets stuck on the ASUS and Android bootup screen, so I have to flash a stock rom.
So, I tried using "Guide to apply OTA without bootloop in Rooted ZF2", but it does not work for me. Whenever I tried to type in the commands, it said "permission denied." When I type in "adb devices," my phone does not show up. However, when I type "fastboot devices," it does appear. Does it have something to do with my drivers? In the device manager, I have two things under ASUS Android Device, ASUS Android Bootloader Interface and ASUS Android ADB Interface (which I tried to install with the "Add Legacy Hardware" button under Action in the device manager).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/guide-to-apply-ota-bootloop-rooted-zf2-t3127835
I really don't know how to fix it now, so help would be GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks

Just follow the instructions and .59 is now loaded there do you update to latest, just to reiterate I believe you will have to reset data to bring back reading the SIM card.

When I do this it still says "FAILED (remote: Permission denied)." What am I doing wrong? Also, the 4th step of the guide is confusing me. Which one is flashtools.zip and where can I get the adb drivers?

Go step by step through the guide downloading each thing necessary, step 4 download classrooms zip as pointed out and extract them to the folder your downloaded files are located in, at the same place where you downloaded classrooms you also have the and drivers, follow instructions and install them, if you follow the guide it is easy to do but read it through 1st, if you don't understand it then search on the web there are literally thousands of guides that you can find to help you understand, though everything is there on the thread I posted for you.

Turn off the phone, then follow instructions to boot to bootloader, make sure its recognized by typing (fastboot devices) and then enter, it should show a device then say fastboot behind it, if do your ready to flash, you must also extract the system zip do it builds the correct system file, just right click and extract here

I extracted the four files from the ROM and then put in the files from flashtools into it.

}

Okay that folder does not seem to have all the proper pieces to me, or mine anyhow, this is how I handled the process, from Mega, download .63 folder as a zip, then extract the zip to folder of same name as zip, that is an option in RAR tool or Winzip, then extract the flashtools zip into the same folder where the full rom is located, on this one extract..... then select the folder where your rom was unzipped to, then go into folder and click on the zip that says system_w_root and extract here, after completed then start fastboot on phone, connect to computer and launch command window from within the folder, then follow flash commands:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
this should work, if not then I am not sure what's going on without having the device physically in hand

What do you think I can do now?

Which phone do you have, model # and original software version?

ZE551ML, ASUS_Z00AD. How do you find out the original software version? Recovery shows that it has WW firmware, if that helps.

http://androidforums.com/threads/list-of-fastboot-command.714676/ this is a list of fastboot commands, based on some research I did it may be one of two things, corrupted download or files on the device have corrupted something, so this is what I would do, from fastboot
fastboot erase cache
then I would
fastboot erase recovery
then try to flash recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
let me know if that works
If not it may be your fastboot that is corrupted try flashing droidboot
fastboot flash fastboot droidboot.img
then restart in fastboot using the volume rocker to select bootloader
and try again

copy and paste this in your browser, will download the full .59 file since I can't find .63 full link but no matter, after you download it, rename it MOFD_SDUPDATE and place in root of your external sd card, then boot into recovery and it will update automatically and install .59 you should then be able to do OTA to .63.
---------- Post added at 06:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:14 PM ----------
if it doesn't update automatically you should find the d/l link in general section under new update .63, follow the same procedure with the 23mb update file just rename to MOFD_SDUPDATE and place it in external sd, obviously delete or transfer the previous MOFD file, only one can be on sdcard

How do I access the sd card? The phone doesn't come up under "Devices and Drives" when I plug it into my computer.

take out the sdcard and use your reader in the computer to transfer the file to the sd card, don't put it inside any folder just to root of card

how do I install cwm 6.0.4?
The ROM has ace_PAC_JB_4.2.2-v22.3.0_20130520-064722.zip
Download cwm 6.0.4 on cwm website...put that file in your fast boot folder...open a cmd prompt in that folder and type fastboot devices. See if PC sees it. A serial number should appear. That means fb recognizes your device. Then fastboot flash recovery "then the recovery name" hit enter. This must all be done on the boot loader screen.

Unlock Bootloader on Android 5.1.1 A5CN701?

I've been trying to unlock the bootloader since the A5CN701 update. Here's how i've tried:
1. Go to developer options -> Tick OEM Unlocking
2. Use the launcher.bat from IntelAndroid-FBRL-05-16-2015.7z from this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-n1/general/play-store-howto-t3118965
3. Use the T4 option and the tablet ends up like this (because the bootloader is locked):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
4. Use fastboot and enter this code:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
Then the cmd console and the tablet should look like this:
5. Select ''Yes: change device state'' using the UI on the N1 but here's all i've received:
The result is :''Fail: couldn't change state''
So that's pretty much about how i've tried to unlock the bootloader. I don't know why i couldn't change the device state! Is there anyone that can help me?
I posted this topic so that everyone can join and make suggestions & solutions to rooting the A5CN701 firmware!
Any help would be much appreciated!
P/s: sorry for the sloppy photos, i didn't have time to crop and edit them
it's no use,I use the same way and i get my device state-unlocked.

If you have got your device unlocked, can you boot into the recovery menu where the option ''Install update from ADB'' is? I can't seem to boot into the recovery menu on the A5CN701? If we can get there, I'm sure we'll figure it out
When running "fastboot flash fastboot droidboot.img" and "fastboot flash boot boot.img" with the files from A5CN507_update.zip i get the IntelAndroid-FBRL-07-24-2015 to run TWRP or CWM.

No,if you unlock device,only stay in bootloader,no matter what your choice,reboot to recovery or power off or anything else. yesterday,i see Root Dell Venue 8 7840 on Android 5.1 Lollipop, which also intel device and run android 5.1.1, it must Flashing Old Firmware and Droidboot,then use the old way to root it, just like the #4 said, but i don't have the N1's old Firmware and Droidboot, so i can't try. now,we just wait #4 upload the img and do what need to do.

1. extract the droidboot.img & boot.img from the A5CN507_update.zip.
2. adb reboot recovery
3. fastboot oem unlock
4. fastboot flash boot boot.img
5. fastboot flash boot boot.img
6. download "IntelAndroid-FBRL-07-24-2015" unzip, run launcher.bat type "ACCEPT" select number 4 or 5 (i have only tested those two). Then option T4 if i remember correctly.
7. Now the device should start receiving the files and start in TWRP or CWM depending on the choices you have made.

Yes that should be adb reboot bootloader.
NO pics possible, my device is in a bootloop and i dont have the time to fix the device until the weekend.
Hi, i seem to have the same problem. ie, N1 stuck in fastboot mode. i have folowed the instructions above, ie;
- successfully unlocked it (fastboot mode reports DEVICE STATE - unlocked)
- extracted boot.img and flashed using fastoboot flash boot boot.img (successful) twice
however, when i run the FBRL script, using option T4 the same problem remains as per the earlier post, ie, it fails at the following point;
writing ^/tmp/recovery.zip^ • • •
FAILED <remote: not allowed to flash this partition>
the script then fails in the same way for recovery.launcher and logcat.
any ideas?
my device now stays in fastboot mode, whether i try chose recovery mode, normal boot etc nothing chances and each time i power cycle it comes back to fastboot mode.
please help. thanks

down load bootloader and click upgrade . then sideload desired firmware. i can tell specific commands if you be little more specific
I am currently on cm 13 7 nov build with LP bootloader..
and i ve used the mm blob updating files provided by cm 14 post and also aicp post.
both of the bat files gives the above result (that error flashing thing.)(thats what the cmd of upgrade.bat displays after opening it. =/)
so basically i need to manually flash all the files that the upgrade.bat file flashes =/

oxygen OS 4.0 no twrp possible

Installed oxygen OS 4.0 everything seems to become OK
but after flashing twrp 3.0.2 to the phone it is just hanging in a black screen.
I tried several twrp alternatives from XDA: always same result.
After some seconds up to some minutes it is possible to reboot but no twrp has been flashed.
The twrp 3.0.2 works fine in the old version of OS oxygen

FIRMWARE+MODEM what is this? Is firmware the whole oxygen OS? Modem is for mobile connection like LTE?
What are the advantages in comparison of using the originals?

I think I did exactly what you described. But nothing in the newly flashed TWRP resulted must in a black screen.
Install the modified TWRP v 3.0.2.1-28. Search in XDA you should find it. Flash it and boot into recovery. I installed it and flashed OOS 4.0 OTA through this recovery. Everything is working fine.
Black screen means you did not flash it.
Open Command Promt. Type:
fastboot flash recovery "recovery".img. (name of the recovery between commas)
reboot bootloader.
reboot to recovery.
Because we don't have any twrp updated to support Nougat oos roms. The ones we have can only read decrypted storage. I'm too waiting for someone to pick up the development and build an updated twrp.
Flashing this one works

Yeah, I noticed that too, after writing the comment.
For me though, I only needed to create the Nandroid backup and flash SuperSU, so I flashed the recovery, cancelled the decryption, formatted the data (removing the encryption), adb push'd the zip and installed it.
Any idea how I can turn the encryption back on now?
@RoFrie I originally had the same problem as you but with the difference that my phone was on OOS 3.2.8 and it upgrade to N. after that I tried TWRP but the phone would replace it every time I rebooted. Once I got the right TWRP I can boot to it but the internal drive was encrypted so TWRP was useless. I said forget this crap I'm going back to CM14.1. And as always I felt that I had to get this done. So once on CM14.1 I used TWRP to switch the file system to s2fs flash OOS3.2.8 than I let it do the upgrade yet again. This time when I flashed the TWRP .28 the phones was no longer encrypted,I rooted than its all good now.

Why would you erase the system? Were you trying to flash another ROM or something?

You'll most likely need to re-flash a stock image.

Fastboot flash bootloader_a (bootloader)
Reboot bootloader
Same command but with _b

now just wanna try to install TWRP
Download twrp.IMG
Fastboot boot (twrp.img)
Go to settings and disable screen timeout and the swipe to install twrp app. Don't need it.
You can flash a stock ota on twrp.
Put whatever you need on a type c thumb drive (stock ota, twrp installer zip, roms) and mount it in twrp.
Just keep in mind if you are going backwards, you'll have to format data.
