Hard bricked - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I tried flashing the marshmallow beta update through twrp and the phone is now completely dead. Sometimes it vibrates two times like it wants to start but nothing happens.I tried flashing the bootloader again with xFSTK but it keeps flashing it over and over again and nothing happens. Is there any method which can help me flash the firmware while the phone is completely dead? Or should I send it over to the asus service?

Read all the thread.

I've faced the same situation just a couple of days before. After searching a lot, finally I found a thread in XDA forum which was saved my zf2.

Newbie mistake bootloop after update, help? ;/

I'm really new to this, hopefully someone can help me. I rooted my phone via method 3 in the Zenfone 2 resources thread. I didn't want to update but the phone downloaded it and I thought it might be ok. The phone updated and got stuck in a bootloop. I believe the update was Z00A 2.19.40.22 ( it was like 34mb?). I read all the threads I could and came to this one. I downloaded the preroot image Z00A 2.19.22 because in my recovery at the top ,it said that was what was on it now. Did I make a mistake there, should I have downloaded an older preroot image? I followed all the directions on recovering from a bootloop ( This thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/guide-to-apply-ota-bootloop-rooted-zf2-t3127835. The phone booted up after the install and I was able to go through the setup. The phone suddenly froze though and I restarted. It gets past the Asus logo and then is stuck at a black screen with the green led blinking. What do I do from here? Is the phone just dead now? Is there a possibility of saving it?
More info- Before downloading the preroot I did try to factory reset from recovery. I was still stuck with bootloop. If anyone can help me I would really appreciate it a lot.

!!hard bricked!! getting the usb logo

hi guys
i have rooted my asus zenfone2 and tried to flash a custom recovery in it but unfortunately i got a system update and installed it accidentally .and entered myself into to bootloop ,while trying to recover from it .i got this usb logo displaying .i think i have flashed the files in wrong order .
how to get the bootloader menu back and recover my phone from hard brick .
help me guys .
As of now, there is no solution for a hard brick. If you can try and remember the exact procedure you followed, it would be helpful for the devs working on fixing a hard brick, because to get one in the first place, is not very easy.
Try going to the service center, I hear people are getting replacements.

HELP Hard Bricked T-Mobile LG G3

Hi everyone. So a few days ago I was trying to install some new roms on my G3. Being the sped I am, I installed the D855 version of the rom rather than the d851. My phone is now hard bricked. I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-lg-g3/general/guide-fix-hard-brick-recovery-guide-t3132359 and could do a couple of things. My phone actually connects via qualcomm mode but that is not the problem. When I try do the EMMC test it does not detect my phone. I get the message No response from the device. Check PMIC first andif still boot problem, replace AP or device not found in dload trying flash programmer. This is a problem I can't seem to fix. Anyone have any help?

Bootloop Zenfone 2 ZE551ML

Good morning, I have a zenfone 2 ZE551ML that suddenly stopped working (only bootloop), in the first days that I suffered from this error the device crashed in its normal use and then forced a shutdown to start it again. At that time it was in bootloop in the boot animation of asus, I tried to start it several times but I was not successful. I left the device off for a few days without doing anything then I tried again and the system started successfully without a bootloop ... But after a few minutes the system crashed like the first time and I repeated the forced shutdown procedure but again the damn bootloop. Then the system didn't start anymore so I decided to try a solution with the xFSTK Downloader and ASUS Flash Tool following step by step but presented an error in the asus flash tool “flash_cmds error”, I tried methods without aft but I got the same error. I'm sorry if it was difficult to understand something because my English is bad .. I really need to solve this, thanks in advance

Redmi Note 8 Pro - Brick

Hi, unfortunetly I bricked my android, something went wrong while installing LineageOS. I looked up some ways to unbrick it from our friends from India, everything is going smoothly up to the last step, error is popping out. I've tried few different softwares but SP Flash Tool is throwing the same error. Unchecking preloader doesn't help. Is there someone that can help me?

Do unbrick again with Power + Volume up while bypass. Then you can pass it
