[HELP]How to reflash to stock rom?

Sorry if this has been answered before, but I've tried the methods of flashing droidboot, boot from the stockrom before flashing, and also altering the updater-script before flashing, but nothing works
how do i reflash to stock rom? I'm om CM 13 at the moment

download stock rom on asus website (check your version)
copy stock rom to adb folder.
reboot to recovery. if you use twrp. go advanced. adb sideload
connect with pc
open cmd in adb folder.
use command "adb sideload romname.zip"
good luck

you forgot to flash system.img," fastboot flash system system.img", after that execute the following commands: “fastboot format userdata” and “fastboot format cache”

I found that if you are on CM and using TWRP, you can flash stock by simply wiping caches and data (not system), installing Prism Barebone, and then installing the stock firmware zip over that. A little time-consuming having to do the two installs, but very simple and you don't need to piss about changing to stock recovery (so you can do it all on-device, no need for hooking up to a PC).

4. You must download three zip-archives with a full "Full OTA" firmware on which you want to flash (If you look through in the FF (FirmwareFinder), you see there are 4 archives for China and 3 for other locations. You must to download for the version what model and location you will have after the firmware);
5. Add the downloaded files to the folder "HWOTA\Update" and run the .cmd file, it will rename them automatically according to the template:

7. If suddenly it turned out "bootloop" - go into the stock Recovery and make wipe.
PS: To change the firmware using the SD card, you need to create a folder "HWOTA" on the SD card and copy three firmware archives with the changed names (see above). In the batch file select item 1 "SDCard HWOTA directory"

If you read the instructions, the bootloader will be locked after the process is completed, therefore, you're gonna have to unlock it and reflash the custom recovery that you had before

for anyone wondering, I solved Magisk installation on oreo!
use .app extractor to get the RAMDISK image, patch it with magisk app on the phone. then use fastboot to install to ramdisk partition, like so
Code:
fastboot flash ramdisk patched_image.img
hope this helps

now that I think about it I tried earlier with the kernel image as well, there is no "boot" image.
maybe you need to do both kernel and ramdisk images seperately
either way, magisk working here, I already replaced the emojis

Give me feedback after installing emui 8

List of Roms available in emui8: Elemental rom had fingerprint bug will be fixed in two months.
GSI roms only phhusson roms are working. I'm using this one https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...-development/experimental-phh-treble-t3709659
list of bugs: some gapps crashes,adb and mtp not working,headphones without mic wont detect but gsi roms will update frequently so these bugs will be gone.
final stock emui8 no bugs you can flash gapps and use it as stock emui8.
be careful with gsi roms. if you accidentally enter into e recovery while on any gsi rom you need to factory reset otherwise your internal storage wont detect.
Finally you need to factory reset after every gsi rom you have flashed and factory reset only works with stock recovery. flash this https://mega.nz/#!cbJFAIQD!qvp1KnZ0qxlg6nHDFmpM5qyZ9QUVIDe5PoZE0BQf8fs
this stock recovery for emui8 will do factory reset otherwise gsi roms wont boot.

Use hwota8 but be careful small mistake will brick your phone. My advice instead of downgrade go to openkirin.net and try los 15. Very stable os than stock and got stock hauwei camera,gapps and good battery backup.

Reboot your device into Download mode. To do this, select reboot from the power menu and hold the [Volume Down] + [Home] buttons while your device reboots.
Once you reach the Download mode warning screen, press [Volume Up] to continue.
Open Odin and place that TWRP tar file in the [AP] slot, under Options tab disable Auto Reboot, then press [Start].
Once the flash is complete (Odin should tell you in the log, and progress bar on phone should stop), you can pull the battery then place the battery back in. Now hold [Volume Up] + [Home] + [Power] buttons until you reach recovery mode.
If you end up in stock recovery, start again from download mode step.
At this point, you will reach the screen asking you if you want to allow system modifications.
You will want to swipe to allow, otherwise the OS will replace TWRP once you boot!
If you want to be rooted with Magisk:
Download the latest Magisk.
Without exiting TWRP, transfer the Magisk zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.
Go to [Reboot] -> [System].
* MTP, known as Media Transfer Protocol, is the same way you transfer files from your PC to your device when booted into system.

This TWRP doesn't install Oxygen Kernel. It says "Recovery Busybox Setup Failed."

I have already installed official twrp from website do i have to reinstall fresh on just download a zip for flash without installing magisk plus kindly upload a video for step by step process.

If you have other twrp extract the .tar archive and move .img to phone and goto Install on twrp select Install Image and Click on it. Select recovery and swipe to confirm. Done

Hi, the link of the latest build is down, can you re-upload please?

I saw in other tutorials that when in stock 8.1 rom you need to erase all data from internal memory. If i do this, there is no longer a, /system folder so there is no rom and bootloop happens.
Do i need to do factory wipe instead? I know i have to wipe data because Its encripted and twrp cant access internal memory.
Im asking what kind of "wipe data" i need to do

just format data to decrypt
link please

[SIMPLE] Guide to Root your device (without TWRP)

Hi All
Note: This procedure is for Windows PC only.
I can see there is a similar thread to help on rooting your device.
I created this thread it make it more easier and focussed just on rooting your device rather with additional information.
This menthod is to root your device without TWRP.
There is a detailed guide by @Freak07 which you can find here.
Prerequisite:
1. Your device bootloader is unlocked
2. You have enabled your Developer Options and enabled USB debugging (Settings > System > About phone > Software information, tap build number 7 times to enable Developer options)
3. Flash Tools, download from here and extract to your PC
4. Latest Magisk Manager which you can download from the relevant thread (search or click here)
BOOT IMAGES
Stock Boot images:
Firmware WW_16.1220.1906.174_0 >>>> Click here
Firmware WW_16.1220.1908.189_1.1.1 >>>> Click here
Patched Boot images:
Firmware WW_16.1220.1906.174_0 (patched with Magisk 19.3 stable version) >>>> Click here
Firmware WW_16.1220.1908.189_1.1.1 (patched with Magisk 19.3 stable version) >>>> Click here
Steps to Root:
1. Connect your device with USB cable
2. Go to the folder where you copied Flash Tools and double click to run cmd-here.exe
3. In the command prompt run the command adb devices, this will run the Deamon and show your device under List of devices attached. If doesn't show your device, check your device is connected and USB debugging is enabled.
4. Now run the command adb reboot bootloader to boot your device in to Fastboot mode
5. Now flash the patched boot image with the command fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
Restart your device with the fastboot command fastboot reboot and enjoy your ROOTED device

It works great, thanks!!

But then I installed miracast magisk module and now everytime I flash magisk patched boot, my phone is stuck on Asus logo so I have to flask stock boot to use my phone.
I think I should flash system image but when I unzip firmware from Asus site ( https://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-6-ZS630KL/HelpDesk_Download/ ) on my mac,
It doesn't show any system image (or even boot image), only "compatibility" , "payload" and some other stuff.
Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?

Hi ASUS firmware for Zenfone do not have system img and instead it is the payload.bin which holds all system files. You can extract system image using python based tools.
You can remove the module if you flash TWPR and using file manger in TWRP to remove magix folder. This will remove magisk completely. Or, reset system via stock recovery. Completely switch off your device. Now, press and hold volume up button and press power button. It will help you to boot in to stock recovery. Or you can follow the guide here
If you still want to flash stock firmware, this link may help.

If I just reset system via stock recovery, will I lose user data?

Yes you do. But you will not loose the files and folder in internal storage like photos etc..
You have to install all user applications again.
I would suggest you to follow the thread to flash TWRP and just remove magisk folder in TWRP file manager.

You can boot in to TWRP without permanently flashing it.
Take few cautions before you attempt to boot in to TWRP using this option,
1. Remove fingerprint in security settings (settings > Security & lock screen > Fingerprint)
2. Remove screen lock PIN in settings > security & lock screen > screen lock > select NONE here and also make sure Fingerprint is not enabled in this screen
How to boot in to TWRP:
Download TWRP from here
Use the command in Fastboot > fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-15-ASUS_I01WD.img
Now you can use file manager in TWRP and remove magisk folder. You have to mount system folder to do so.

Are you able to boot in TWRP recovery as I mentioned. Please confirm.
Have you mounted system in twrp. It won't go anywhere. You should find it. I have done this several times.
Read here for some more help.

Yes. I did try as well. It seems like TWRP is loading in READ ONLY mode. I doubt whether you can flash the uninstall mod as well. But worth trying as you can save all your installed apps.

yes. I can see that there is an installer (magisk module) which has to be flashed in magisk in order for TWRP to write on data partition.
In your case, you cannot boot your device with rooted image as you have a module which is causing bootloop. Catch 22 sistuation.
In this situation I think you have only one option left which is resetting your device loosing all installed apps. Sorry mate. Could not help you at this time.

New Update

Hello Smohanv,
Say I want to update to the latest Firmware that got released yesterday, and I am currently rooted via the method you introduced on the first page with firmware 16.1220.1906.174_0, how do I go about it?
If I do the Manual update, will I loose root? Or should I wait for you to release a patched one, and then do the manual update?
Thanks.
