facing same problem ?
Let me know if u find any solution
My warrnty is void too as i rooted it

You guys could try unbricking with xfstk, if your phones show up as Moorefield in Windows device manager. But I think they're bricked. Send them to Asus. I don't think they will charge you for replacing the motherboard because Asus won't notice you're rooted, when the motherboard is dead. And even if, imho rooting won't void warranty, only unlocking the bootloader will, right?

IT shows moorefield in device manager but only for 1 sec.
Is this motherboard fault?

I think so. Mine was the same. But I could get my phone to show up for more than 1 sec in device manager by holding the volume down button on powering on and keeping it holden.
Xfstk was working this way, but only to the part when it tries to flash firmware. Then it loses the connection... But try! Best of luck!

feel your pain - I cant get any Moorefield at all. Completely dead and Asus dont wanna repair.

Hello guys, I kinda have the same problem:
1) Installed official ASUS update
2) After the phone restarted, it stuck in the loading screen forever
3) I entered the recovery mode and the sleeping android robot with the triangle error sign appeared.
4) I surpassed that by pressing power button + volume-up button and releasing.
5) Reset to factory settings, clear cache.
6) Still stuck in the loading screen.
By the way, I had unlocked my phone about a month ago. What can I do now? Is the warranty void? Thanks in advance

wont repair because I'm in the UK and they (where I purchased from ebay - sealed in box). They say its not a UK unit so they have no obligation for warranty.

[Q] Phone does not boot, red light flashes, is it hard bricked?

Hi,
I woke up to find my note2 stuck on the samsung logo, so i went to the recovery menu and cleared the cache. When I went to restart the phone, it wont start up.
1) Nothing appears on the phone
2) When i press the power button, the red light on top flashes but thats it
3) it doesnt go to recovery mode with the power, vol+
4) it doesnt go to download mode with the power, vol-
5) Battery should be fully charged, when plug into the phone and the wall, nothing happens even when i left it there for half a day.
6) Switched out with friends battery and nothing happens as well.
7) Plug into PC Mac, multiple computers, nothing happens on the phone or computer. Nothing is detected on that usb port.
Anyone know what I can do to try and fix this before I send it to a repair shop?
Thanks

In switched off condition, if it takes charge then it must be go to DOWNLOAD MODE (home+power+vol.down). Then restock through odin or use 'mskip toolkit'

This phone doesnt have any Volume +/- power button trick. It ONLY has the yellow reset button. Its a pain in the A*S!
Try a few things first.
1) When you hold down the yellow reset button, are you ONLY holding it down for a few seconds, and it vibrates ONCE?
Have you tried holding it down for 10 seconds, until it vibrates TWICE, indicating it has powered off completely, and THEN try connecting it?
2) If step 1 got your phone to power off completely try:
-Connecting your phone to your PC via USB with the volume DOWN button held and see if you get a GREEN L.E.D. If you do you have
successfully entered flash mode, in which case you can simply flash an FTF file with flashtool.
-Connecting your phone to your PC via USB with the volume UP button held and see if you get a BLUE L.E.D. If you do you have
successfully entered fastboot. From here, as long as you have ADB and your devices drivers installed on your computer, you can flash
a boot.img or "Kernel" with a fastboot command in a command window (fastboot flash boot boot.img). The easiest way to get a kernel or
boot.img with a baked in recovery is to download the latest Cyanogenmod, unzip and extract the boot.img, and flash it via fastboot.
Since you have an unlocked bootloader already, your device should be able to use an AOSP kernel.
From there you should be able to at least boot into recovery, and flash something from your SD card.
Id recommend just flashing the latest Cyanogenmod just to get your device up and running. From there you should be able to follow steps
get back to stock if thats what your looking for.
I hope at least one of these options work.
If not, like that last guy said, take it to a service center and get it checked out.
GOOOOD LUUUUCK!!

All ZL's are like that. Hold down till 1 vibration for reboot. Hold down till 3 vibrations for power off. The yellow reset button will not power on the device however. I figured I'd check just incase my power button decided to go for a sh*t.

Power off completely, then hold volume up and power to get to bootloader. Press volume down until you get to recovery and hit power button. It should reset and then a android appears. If it then says error hold power and press up volume. You should get to recovery menu that way.
Wipe cache...
Reboot and see what happens...

---------- Post added at 12:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 AM ----------
my device is in error screen, and with the dead robot.
Hi guys, please help, maybe some of you could do that for me... Problem is strange and I just did not find solution jet... So, I just can not power down my ZE551ML completly. Device is trying somehow to boot up, getting some kind of loop. First of all, phone came to me totaly dead - I have to plug it in to charger for 3-4 hours to ligh up notification led... After that it turned on normally. After first boot and setting things up, updates showed up. So I did update - for 4 times, OTA. It looks ok (now I have 2.20.40.90 clean, I mean no root or unlocked BL). But strange comes when I want to turn it off (power down) - device is shutting down, screean is going black and... bum! - the battery icon is showing up: emty for the very first few seconds, then it changeing to green (showing actually power state, I mean accu capacity), then device reboot itself and whole process starts over and over again... I can not stop it. Well, I think if the battery would be full, that could completly discharge it - couse is unstopable... I found, that when I press vol- when the battery is green, phone shuts off its screen, but after 20 seconds the process begins over again... i can boot it normally by pressing vol+ and power - it leads me to the bootloader manu, then boot normally - done. but it is very annoing... beside that phone is ok. Can someone help? BTW - I did factory reset from stock recovery, but it did not help...

I had the same problem. My solution was to unplug the usb charger. After that, the update was successfully.
on me Z007 I did a factory reset because my phone would not start and when it did it kept giving me messages about unfortunately this stopped and that stopped BBM, Zenui, google play store etc. Once i did the factory reset the phone worked again but I had no data so I thought I would just restart. Now all I get is ASUS and the spinning wheel. any suggestions??
Hello, I own model Asus Zenfone 2 laser 5.5 ( ZE550KL ) I have also same problem, phone keeps on rebooting....... Showing Asus logo and then vibrates and again start rebooting
I have installed asus firmware from SD card from recovery mode which was successfully installed .... did every thing after pressing volume and power button and even performed necessary actions by doing fastbood mode.
but phone is on same condition.... showed every where.. even service center people raised there hands
Kindly help me to recover my phone back.

My phone got frozen while I was reading facebook news. Battery was about 60%. I turned it off, but it doesn't turn on again. It just quickly splashes the "ASUS In search of Incredible/ Powered by Android" and then goes off again.
I tried to get to Recovery Mode by holding volume UP and power buttons, but it didn't even get to the point the device vibrates. I tried the same with volume DOWN as well. No good.
The charging battery icon shows battery is being charged ok.
Is it dead for good?
Thanks

You should always say what model you have as there may be a little difference in how to fix it, I have a 551ML which has 4gb ram so you might be using another model meaning what I tell you can (potentially) brick your device.
Mate, if you have a stock phone that won't start then you probably have a lemon. If you are sure you have done nothing to it then I'd take it back under warranty as you seem to have had problems from the start.
Just to be sure though, you are starting from off, hold volume up and then pressing and holding power. Release power when you get to the first boot logo then release volume up.This should gt you to fastboot mode.

Sorry, my phone is a Z00AD:
- a ZE551ML
- 2Gb of RAM
- 16gb rom
- 1.8ghz Atom Z3560
- Full HD screen
- Build LRX21V.WW-ASUS_Z00AD-2.13.40.13_20150401_8390_user
- Kernel 3.10.20-x86_64_moor-265182-gb0fff5c
- Baseband 1509_5.0.18.00_0320, 1509_7.0.10.0_0320
I forget that there are plenty models of Zenfone 2. And I need to create myself a signature!
By the way, I got it working again.
It still doesn't boot to recovery with the VolUP+Pwr button combination, but it does get to the application again .
From the application, a can use "QuickBoot app" to get me to recovery. On recovery, I get the laid down android with its belly open and a red triagle with an exclamation mark (and some chinese? stuff written below him).
Thanks

Well, the chinese message I see at recovery is:
出错了!
Where 出错 means make mistakes; go wrong
and 了means a particle of a sentence that implies past tense or completion of something
So, it means something went wrong! Or simple "Error!"

That's how you get to recovery. Once you get the android with "Error" in any language underneath, hold power and hit volume up. You might need to do this a couple of times but be aware holding power for approx. 10 secs will turn off phone.

Ahh!!
I can get to FASTBOOT (Bootloader) now!
All instruction I found tell me to hold VolUP+Pwr until the phone vibrates or the boot screen shows up.
BUT my phone does not vibrate! Is it broken?
So, I'm holding VolUP+Pwr for 5 seconds, the I release Pwr (only). It gets me to fastboot, and then I switch to recovery. Then I do "hold power and hit volume up" you said, and I finally can see recovery menu :victory:
Thank you very much!

Probably true that motherboard is dead, but I was mostly wondering if you did anything to the phone that caused it to do that. There is a hard-brick fix in the forum... https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=71495218
I'm so stupid...
so i have the same problem...but i don't think the motherboard is dead for only one flash zip...
I have installed magisk on my Xperia Z1 Compact and i bricked my phone. I was in a hurry and i didn't read properly how to installed it. The requiments wasto have an unlocked bootloader and i have lockedbootloader....
Now my phone didn't start. After i flashed magisk from TWRP and i received a message that i have to install SuperUsr and i choose "no". After that my phone doesn't boot up anymore since yestarday.
I tried to power up with simultaneously pressing volume up and power button and is not vibrating. All i have is a red light when i press power button. First time when i pressed power button it has vibrated one time.
I have put the phone to a charger and the light is red and pulsing and the charger isn't warming.
In flashtool i get that the phone is disconnected and in fastboot mode i can't get in, when i pressed volume up and then i put the usb cable all i get is a red light not blue...
Should i unlock the bootloader? But how, because i can get neither in fastmode or bootloader mode...
If you guys know a solution to boot up my phone i will be so happy.
Thanks!
I went to a local mobile repairing shop and the guy told me to replace the battery as the circuit of the battery was not working. So I did and now my z1c is back to life and working fine.
Hope this help someone in future.
Thank you
Hey ejay_gl, did you check the video that I have posted at the top?
The way you have described your problem I think you have hard bricked your mobile because I have faced the same a month before for flashing a kernel meant for unlocked bootloader in a locked bootloader device.
Luckily I recovered from that problem within 1-2 days.
Solution is little bit complex but I think you can do that with the help of google and YouTube.
Good luck.

Yes. I went to a local service shop and the guy over there manage to get my phone working. I'm so happy that i didn't have to buy a new motherboard.
But damn now i have another problem. i have rooted with kingroot but i can't replace kingroot with supersu.
I can't do this steps:
Open the Terminal app in your mobile , enter the command " su " ( without quotes ) . Allow Root Access in your mobile.
5. Now run the command - " sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh " ( without quotes )
6. The SuperSu app will launch automatically , it will ask to update binary , click on CONTINUE , then Select NORMAL method. After the Binary is installed it will ask to reboot your device.
Is there another way to get supersu or a recovery. If I can get a recovery i will flash a pre-rooted firmware.
