I was able to install Cyanogen 12.1 and Gapps but now I want to go back to the stock OS but it's not letting me.
This is what I'm doing. I' putting the "UL-Z00A-WW-2.20.40.97-user" zip file on my micro SD and on TWRP I wipe everything but the micro SD and then I try to install it and it loads for but then it says "Failed" in red. When I try to install the cyanogen and gapps zip files together it lets me but for this it doesn't. Am I installing the wrong file? I was told to download the latest firmware from ASUS Zenfone 2 website.
Downloads: (add h t t p : / / w w w . here)mediafire.com/folder/setyy42t2cymy#dy87k1a0f8m81
Download the latest recovery.img from the link provided (2.20.40.97 - ensure that the model matches your phone model), and flash it via fastboot.
After that, simply ADB sideload the firmware and you should be good to go!
P.S. I tried installing the stock ROM via TWRP multiple times, but all failed. The steps above are steps to flash back the stock recovery to flash the stock ROM back.

Well, probably its a problem with your boot.img partition. Extract boot.img from stock rom zip, then flash it via fastboot flash boot boot.img and then, flash orginal recovery same as boot. Then, finally, flash via recovery STOCK ROM. Probably now it will be fine.
If not, try flash TWRP and make FULL WIPE included system partition and repeat upper steps.
Cheers.
In twrp goto wipe and do normal wipe remember don't do advance wipe otherwise it'll format internal storage as well so avoid advance wipe only do normal wipe then install full 3.2.7 zip and super su. zip

before you flash 3.2.7 mount system read-only. you can do this under "mount"
it is a known bug with twrp and oxygenos
You can download the stock boot logo from here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862664522

if you are on stock recovery you cant change the mounts.
flash twrp to flash bootlogo and oxygenos 3.2.7
otherwhise you have to install via sideload but this is very slow and you cant flash stock bootlogo
so flash twrp and then mount system read-only and then flash oxygenos 3.2.7 and after or before this you can flash the stock bootlogo

I flashed the latest 20s Chinese ROM to unlock my bootloader and had trouble getting back to LEX727 19s ROM with a working SIM card, this what I did to fix it.
Goal: Get LEX727 back to 727 ROM from any Chineese Variant (LEX720) with a working sim card.
Logic: We need to get the phone back to as stock as possible so that we can flash dr4stic's ROM That will update from CN5.8.018s to US5.8.019s. First we need to install CN5.8.018s, but we need to do it from stock recovery, to get stock recovery back we use a TWRP backup made by suhridkhan, then copy the CN5.8.018s zip, rename it to update.zip and allow the phone to do it's thing It will take quite awhile to flash the stock CN5.8.018s ROM, but when its done we can then install dr4stic's ROM, but first we need custom recovery again, since we flashed stock recovery when we used the TWRP backup. So we reflash custom recovery (I recommend GrossoShop's TWRP as that is what worked for me, however others may work). Reboot into fastboot, fastboot flash recovery the GrossoShop TWRP, then we go back to recovery. Now we can install the upgrade ROM. Once the upgrade ROM is installed, we can reboot and we'll have a completely stock version of the LEX727 ROM with Stock Recovery. (oobe state)
STEP 1 INSTALL WORKING ROM
1. You will need a working ROM to copy the TWRP unzipped files to the phone (figure this out on your own, but you should already have something that works)
STEP 2 STOCK RECOVERY
1. Restore this TWRP backup
1. Send the unzipped files to your phone in TWRP/BACKUP/<Device_ID>/TWRP. (You need a working ROM to do this with USB, you can try adb pushing the .zip and adb shell unzipping but I had permisison errors. and found it easier to just move the files unzipped)
2. Reboot into recovery, Advanced Wipe everything except Internal Storage (where your backup is)
3. Restore from the TWRP backup, before restarting, do a factory reset wipe and dalivik.
4. Reboot, and you SHOULD be in the LEX727 Rom, however your sim card will not be recognized depending on the modem firmware you came from.
STEP 3 GETTING DOWN TO CN5.8.018s
1. Since we have stock recovery, we can now use it to flash down to the right Chineese ROM version for dr4astic's ROM update to work.
2. Setup the phone, and copy LE_ZL1_LEX720_CN_5.8.018S.zip, then rename it to update.zip
3. Install the update through the phone settings or browser. (It will take quite a while 15ish minutes)
4. The phone may reboot into an endless boot loop where it just keeps redoing the same startup flash, To get past this reboot into recovery and perform a "Clear data" wipe.
5. You should now be in the stock version of LEX 720 5.8.018s
STEP 4 USING THE UPDATE ROM
1. We need to flash a custom recovery again (I recommend GrossoShop's as that is what worked for me, however others may work)
2. Reboot into fastboot and flash your recovery software
3. Wipe everything, data included and reboot back into recovery.
4. adb push the update ROM and install it, wipe dalvik and do a factory reset wipe before restarting.
5. When you tap restart system from TWRP the phone will vibrate for about 7ish seconds, dont do anything, just let it do its thing. It will reboot and go to a black screen, then finish rebooting.
(this is perhaps the most risky step as we are returning to a stock ROM with stock recovery and might loose our unlocked bootloader)
6. You should get everything back to stock ROM with working SIM card and an unlocked bootloader.
note: I will be saving local copies of all the files required indefinitely, so if any of the above links break, I will re-upload.

This is exactly what i need, however i have no idea how to do this. Sad.

Hi,
Your link to CN5.8.018s-to-US5.8.019s.zip is down. Is it possible that you provide this file again?
Thank you!
First time flashing ROMs, installed resurrection remix tryed to install Gapps which failed, yet RR booted up on its own just fine. Then tried to flash a new recovery on it (TWRP 3.0) yet the phone would just never boot up to complete the recovery install. So now i have a phone which wont enter recovery mode and cannot complete the download of the new recovery.
TLDR: Phone wont boot into recovery as ROM is broken so download cant be fixed?
Previous: recovery TWRP 2.6
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-19195
Any help would be really appreciated!
Thanks
Are you sure that you have flashed the right Recovery for your Phone.
Normally the way is.
Boot into Recovery
Install the Recovery .zip file
Reboot into Recovery.
Reboot into System ( ROM )
Can you post a link where you download the Recovery and which file.

That would only work from TWRP ver 2.8.4, I think you missed he is still on very old TWRP or maybe he edit later , he would have to install with Odin method
@Spec77
If you can boot into download mode you should be able to flash new recovery with Odin method (NOT use zip file).
As Bierma suggests maybe you flashed wrong TWRP does your phone have another letter and after gt-19195 if so it is a different phone & you need different TWRP. Or maybe you just tapped wrong link.

This way works also if you come from a CWM or PhilzTouch Version.
If you come from TWRP =>2.8.4.0 than you can flash an *.IMG File ,but you can flash on all Versions a *.zip file.
Managed to fix the brick
Thanks for the help, I managed to fix it by installing TRWP 3.0 from ODIN, and now that i have that I'm fine
Thanks!
Hi Guys,
I installed Resurrection Remix 7.1.2 all wen good.
After trying to install gapps device entered bootloop and TWRP was in loop trying to install gapps untill battery died. i have only download mod available as i can't enter recovery even after trying to flash TWRP again.
How can i flash a new rom via Odin? as i can;t see any TAR/MD5 files for that.
Thx for helping!!
Custom ROMs don't come as tar only zip.
Asking for tar means you wanna go back to stock?
Which TWRP version did you try it with?
I would reflash TWRP tar in Odin to revive it.
Then the custom ROM zip with TWRP.
Hi,
My device is rooted with Pixel Experience ROM-Android Pie. I am not able to flash stock firmware on it.
Below are the errors :
Zip Treble Compatibility Error
Invalid Zip File Format
Error installing zip file
Right now I can only start up in TWRP recovery mode. Already formatted data,system,cache.
Please help.
Just use the latest dumplingfor OOS 9.0.8(from the forums) and flash it
Make sure you have the latest recovery installed. If you still can't flash it then use the unbrick tool to go full stock. That's guaranteed to work imo.
