Hi guys, i'm new in this forum, so please pardon me if i did something wrong.
i really need a help now, my asus zenfone 2 (ZE551ML) got bricked Yesterday.
this is the timeline why my zenfone 2 got bircked:
1. I rooted my phone without cwm or anything else on around 2 weeks ago
2. Yesterday, i recieved the firmware update message (auto download) and i accidentaly clicked on update now without unrooting first.
3. My phone stuck on the logo screen, loading forever (softbrick?)
4. i've tried to factory reset and wipe all the system cache via recovery mode, but it didn't wok.
5. i looked at some forum and youtube said that i can flash rom my device to unbrick my device with 2 ways : via adb and microsd.
6. using adb sound promising, so i learnt how to flash rom via adb and i downloaded the latest firmware on the official website.
7. i tried to flash rom via adb: i've put the firmware zip on adb folder and open windows command in that folder, i connected my zenfone 2 with usb and start to "apply update from adb" and type "adb sideload xxxx.zip".
8. several times later i got message: "timed out waiting for package, installation aborted".
9. i repeated step 7 and 8 for almost 5 times and the results are same
Can someone help me? I'm really frustated now cause i can't using my phone or maybe share the reference about flash rom with microsd, because i've tried it but i don't really understand how to do it
Thx. in advance for all of you
nb: i've tried to search in this forum, but i didn't find correct answer for me

since you know how to go into recovery mode so i'll skip that part,
use this adb tool instead https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95784891001607611
If you have an external sdcard take it out and copy the firmware you want to side load and copy it to the external sdcard. Now name it "MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip" and reboot to fastboot and choose recovery. It should automatically flash the firmware. Move it to a folder when you are done or it will install automatically every time you reboot to recovery.

Hey all,
Noobie question time! Did the firmware update (or so I think) and now I do have adb connection but not fastboot? or mounted sd card. (Did re-format and now it seems to be available). I messed something up along the way obviously, it looked very much finished after both adb and the phone were inactive for a minute or so.
Currently in what seems to be factory recovery?

What's next guys? I need twp and Venom update. *** Sideload option available didn't want twrp, because of not having fastboot?
Also showing:FILE/mnt/media_rw/ext_sd/0PJAIMG.zip
File not found.
Thanks for all the help, I'd be useless with out you!
I found out that:
1. Android sdk must be installed.
2. Htc sync must be uninstalled but keep its drivers. (install then uninstall it, keep drivers option!).
3. Use twrp 2.9.0.1 (reboot recovery will not appear until you use this twrp) and supersu 2.65.
4. Do not sideload. Use Fastboot and adb. No matter what!.
Download mode is Fastboot commands. Recovery is adb commands.
When you get to the reboot to recovery bit, boot to bootloader with hold vol+& press power. "reboot recovery" should be halfway down the list in bright lime green font. Read carefully. I missed it first time and panicked.

Shivadow, do you have a link for that twrp I can't seem to find it.
Thanks for the info!
Update:
Got twrp 2.8 on. Won't take newer versions of venom, assuming they need 3.0.
I noticed that the error on the bottom of the device - 0PJAIMG.zip file not found on sd path is RUU related? If so should I try the ruu again as I might have a partial install??
0pjaimg is for flashing but in your case it'll do more damage than good.
You can get twrp 2.9.0.1 from the repo or various sites. Google is your friend.

Hello, i followed every step of this guide which brought me to the point where i need to check the boxes in the smart phone flash tool. The problem is when i do like it's told in the guide, it doesnt work and Error 5007 is displayed.
This has probably something to do with the fact that i dont have any locations. My question now, what did i forgot? I downloaded the Philz v3.0 recovery img and used the scatter file and according to the guide this should be enough.
What did i forgot?

as above and have you correctly downloaded the drivers for your phone?
The SP-Driver are up to date, updated them completly without an error, and the bootloader should be fine too

Have you enabled it in developer options? after reboot mine re sets itself, just a thought
If you are just flashing a recovery only the "recovery" should have a tick in it. You only tick all boxes when flashing stock image.

Okay, the problem is after i did that, there is no "recovery" in the end. If i go in the recovery mode, i only have the option boot, fastboot and recovery. And if i klick on fastboot there are "No Files". So no factory reset, SDcard check for a rom and so on and on

After you have flashed the recovery do you reboot back to your o/s or straight to recovery? you have to boot straight in to recovery when you have finished (power and volume up)

Hello, as everyone knows, the previous JUI beta caused problems with the baseband and EFS partition.
On behalf of a Chinese developer to come out a new beta of JUI that is compatible with our phone, which will detail the steps to install safely.
1: Install this TWRP recovery and make a backup of the EFS partition and save it in a safe place
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-pro3/how-to/leeco-le-pro-3-root-t3476560
2: Download the ROM from this link and pass it to the phone and install with TWRP
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1WVNNqgsv7lR2d5MDFIdHZYbHM/view
3: After installing, restart your phone and wait for JUI to boot, start with a screen with Chinese letters, after that will restart the phone and start the ROM normally.
EXTRA: GOOGLE PLAY
If you need google apps, follow these simple steps.
1: Dowload BeanGapps
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/gapps-dynamic-gapps-t3487192
2: Install the ROM first, wait for it to start, and when you start to shut down the phone and go to the recovery and install the gapps.
HOW TO GO BACK TO EUI AND REMOVE THE ENCRYPTION
1: Download the latest version of EUI
link here: https://goo.gl/j6A5P4
2: Enter in TWRP recovery and clear all partitions.
3: Move the EUI rom to the memory of your phone and install. Then restart the system and then EUI will start loading, but at the end you will be asked for a password to remove the encryption.
DELETE ENCRYPTION.
1: On your computer, extract the boot.img file from the EUI ROM.
2: dowload TWRP recovery
link here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-pro3/how-to/leeco-le-pro-3-root-t3476560
3: Put the boot.img file and the recovery file in the ADB folder. Then rename the recovery file with this name “recovery.img”
4: Put your phone in fastboot mode, and put these commands in order
PD: Do not forget to move both files to the ADB folder.
1: fastboot flash boot boot.img
2: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
5: After that, put your phone in recovery mode and go to the wipe section and press “SWIPE TO FACTORY RESET”.
After that a screen appears that says that the phone is encrypted and that it needs to format the partition, and tells it to write YES OR NO,
6: Write YES and clean all partitions.
7: After doing the above, re-install EUI and when you start the phone will no longer be encrypted and will be ready to use again.

So if we have twrp installed, do we install eui through it? I thought i read this was dangerous on this phone
My phone: Asus Zenfone 3 Deluxe NON PRO with the snapdragon 820 2.15ghz CPU..
When I try to enter fastboot mode my phone just goes nowhere and sits there. If I hard reset the phone it turns on again.. Calls and works but take one picture with camera and it shuts off.. gets the picture oddly.
Ive installed ADB on my PC and I'm about to start seeing if I can talk to the phone in fastboot even though the phone itself shows nothing at all. This happened during a failed upgrade and has NOT been able to upgrade since. I'm on 6.0 still.. failed 7.0
My question: Is there a certain way I should attempt to flash the files using ADB? I do have the RAW files from Asus support..
I'm going to post a couple pictures and a short video if needed to make this easier to understand for anyone reading this, I'm just going to try some simple commands first in ADB and see if the phone responds first. I have a feeling this could make everything much much easier if it does.
Try to enter fastboot or flash from here?
I have no recovery that I know of my phone goes totally dead when its in recovery mode and doesn't seem to respond to anything at all BUT.. When I plug in a cable it makes the connecting sound over the PC.. I'm about to try a few different scenarios of trying to enter fastboot other than manually with the side buttons but if that doesn't work what are my odds of repairing my file system from this state? I can get into MOST of the files in the LS.. but not all I do not have root access but I can get into pretty much everything else just FYI. If anyone has any questions or advice feel free to chime in at anytime.
I got into fastboot using command.
I assume its pretty straight forward from here I'll just post the steps I'm about to take or links to what guide or guides I follow just in case anyone else suffers from this in the future.
I used the commands in the following order :
adb devices (to start the server)
adb shell (to get connected to the phone)
reboot bootloader (to reboot into fastboot)
When the phone rebooted it looked stuck on the Asus logo but once it settled I tried the command :
fastboot devices (BAM it showed up instantly)
Now I have downloaded some RAW STOCK and TWRP files I'm I'm planning to restore my factory 6.0 ROM.
If this is successful then I plan to make a backup... and then sleep before I play more lol

Were you able to repair your CP? im still looking for ways to back up my data before proceeding
Hi all.
Did a stupid thing.
I downloaded firmware file for my Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G (SM-G988B) Exynos as an MD5 file and extracted the file which came out as a .img file instead of .lz4 (which I overlooked until the damage was done!).
So not noticing the file was the wrong type, I used 7-Zip to tar it, copied it to my phone's SD card, then patched it with latest Magisk manager app. After this, I copied it back to my laptop and flashed this file using Odin.
Result: Phone goes to insecure boot warning screen but of course here it goes wrong:
It won't proceed to booting up
Power+volume up key combination or power alone do nothing no matter how long you hold them in
It boots to to same insecure boot warning screen if you use either power+volume down, or power+volume down+volume up key combination with cable unplugged. With cable plugged in it restarts to a charging icon, which promptly freezes, and stays on the screen even if you unplug the cable.
I have managed to get it into stock recovery by holding power+volume up+volume down randomly once in a while (usually it goes to insecure boot warning screen as usual), but if I select Reboot to bootloader, it does not manage to open download mode, and hangs on red text that says "entering fastboot mode"
QUESTION: If I can get it back into recovery, is there a way to re-flash stock firmware without download mode on this device using ADB (or any other method)?
Or is my phone a brick for good?
FIXED!
I managed to flash an Android 11 One UI 3.0 Beta via ADB sideload. While it didn't finish properly due to corrupted boot image and possibly not the prerequisite firmware, all was not lost. It ran okay right to the end, when it said "installation aborted".
Once I had got this far Download mode was working again, THANK HEAVENS!
Opened Odin, and flashed away. I'm now back on Stock firmware and didn't even lose my data thanks to the vbmeta_disabled file I flashed in USERDATA section.
Talk about getting out of Jail!
