Hello,
I have recently updated my phone to marshmallow complete stock, then I flashed pre rooted marshmallow system.img and boot files through fastboot and twrp.img too, but I cant get into TWRP, even tho If I flash stock recovery, i can go into it. So I flashed stock recovery and running prerooted marshmallow, It seems that I've to unlock the bootloader in able to get into TWRP custom recovery. I want to use a custom rom like XOSP or CM there available. I tried the unlock bootloader app provided by ASUS but that seems to only work for ollipop. Is it really about bootloader should be unlocked in able to get into TWRP? I cant get into TWRP, ASUS logo appears and If I continue pressing power+volume down it will just hold on to that screen and restart.
Please Help!!!
This happens with me too ..
any help ?

Tried to unlock my bootloader with official method and i perform all my steps correctly after that i got stuck in booloop that time i tried to boot in recovery but fail my device dont boot in recovery mod after that i flash stock 4.3 firmware on my xpetria using flashtool n i started my device (everything wiped)
then again i tried to boot in recovery but fail i again tried to unlock it but again stuck in bootloader and again flash stock rom
please help me developers where am i mistaken my device bootloader unlock status is yes
and i have lost my drm key too
Are you trying to access Fastboot mode or the actual recovery? Because the stock ROM doesn't contain accessible recovery, which is why you have to flash a custom recovery separately.
I recently upgraded my phone to OFFICIAL marshmallow update that Asus provided. Upon doing so my phone's bootloader got magically locked again and when I tried to flash custom TWRP recovery via fastboot the recovery got corrupt. I tried unlocking bootloader again with the software but it isn't supported cause It's marshmallow. The recovery can't be recovered to stock version either. What do I do? I can only access fastboot and nothing else.

download the recovery file from here https://mega.nz/#F!k4MHiAgL!dVuOKeH3eokcwPSNI79ffw then flash it via fastboot
go to fastboot mode
adb devices
adb sideload "your mm.zip"
i have zenfone 2 with lastest mm .
in marshmallow if you boot with unlocked bootloader the phone stuck on asus logo, so what i did was unlock the bootloader , install LineageOS , relock bootloader, boot LineageOS. The problem is when i try to unlock again the bootloader to acces the recovery i cant , the phone show "Unlock failed.... reboot in 5 second". This problem didn't happen before
please help , how do i fix that

How are you relocking the bootloader? . As far as I know that is not possible.

re locking bootloader is possible. flash raw firmware. or flashing boot, recovery, fastboot and ifwi images.
@DarkshadoW99 very first of all you started new thread without searching around. and if you started a new thread your post is too confusing or lacking the context of your post. unable to understand what you actually want.
very first of all while unlocking bootloader with unofficial method. you may get error " failed too many links" but even though bootloader is unlocked pretty well.. ( mention which tool you are using to unlock bootloader)
second thing is you stated that you are trying to unlock bootloader to access recovery. what does it actually mean? do you want to flash custom recovery or your are unable to enter recovery mode?
"in marshmallow if you boot with unlocked bootloader the phone stuck on asus logo" what does this line means? are you stuck at asus logo? as far as i know you can boot in MM with unlocked bootloader too. unable to understand what you wanted to say.
Go back to Lollipop for bootloader unlock

Since there isn't any OFFICIAL unlocker for Zenfone 2 Marshamallow, your best bet is to go back to Lollipop abd having an unlocked bootloader but again, it'll be without Marshmallow:
Download official firmware latest release or whatever you had BEFORE installing LineageOS. Rename the the file you just downloaded to:
MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and put it on an SD-Card, put the sd card in your phone, boot into recovery (by booting to fastboot and selecting recovery) and the restore should start automatically.
Now at this point you'd be back to stock marshmallow and you can downgrade back to Lollipop ( V52.20.40.197--be mindful the link is for the JP SKU and you need to download the right SKU version for your phone in case you have WW --didnt see you specify or not, so maybe you want to check you downloaded the right Lineage OS as well as maybe thas why its freezing ) to use Asus' Unlocker.apk [You can find instructions on official Asus website under support]

If the last thing he installed was LinOS then he has twrp for recovery. I don't think that method will work.

That's a very valid point, but since his post is vague and quite confusing, unless Lineage has a function within the ROM to "relock the bootloader" I would've assumed he "relocked the bootloader" by installing/fastboot flashing some official boot.img and since he cant get into recovery and his bootloader is locked, I had imagined he'd be back to stock fastboot.
but meh, my guess is as good as any. Unless the OP adds some clarity, we can at least say we tried, amirite?

so did you lock the bootloader again? if you didnt do that the bootloader is still fine.
if you were bootlooping, how did you wipe all data i.e. how did you wipe the OS?
Hello! Got some trouble booting my phone in recovery mode. As a first step to install new firmware (linageos) I flashed latest TWRP via official app and it said recovery flashed successfully. Next, I tried to boot recovery to flash new v29 bootloader but phone does not react to hardware key combination (tried many times) and just boots the system. Ok, I installed Quick Boot app, it does some job - phone reboots, about 10 lines of text appear on screen and that's it. Last line says in red - fastboot mode started. Any thoughts how to fix this? Thanks!
Phone model LG G4 H-815, Android 5.1, rooted, bootloader is from official unlock.

You have LP. newer official TWRP builds does not support lollipop anymore.
In the official TWRP thread you can find a link in the download section to my PREVIEW builds. You will need the MM flavor to boot on your firmware.
Once you have flashed the v29 bootloader you can use the official TWRP again
