[Need Help] ZE551ML Bootloop and No Fastboot - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, recently I tried to use this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/development/stock-rom-ul-z00a-ww-2-20-40-168-t3354526
after revert back from CM13 custom ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zen.../rom-cyanogenmod-13-0-nightly-builds-t3264492
But the result is my phone stuck in Asus logo.
Tried to access recovery by pressing power button + volume up but cannot go into recovery.
Tried to connect phone to PC via USB cable but the phone is not detected (cannot try fastboot from PC).
Here is what I did before my phone bricked:
1. Reboot into recovery (I'm using TWRP)
2. Wipe everything except MicroSD
3. Install SuperSU (downloaded from the thread)
4. Install ROM v168 (downloaded from the thread)
5. Reboot system
After that my phone stuck in Asus logo.
Tried to search solution from many sources still no luck. Already posted in the thread but still no answer from anyone.
Please help because I don't have backup phone :crying:
Thanks.

Did you really flash supersu before you flashed the Rom? That's probably the cause. Have you tried any of the bootloop solutions posted here yet?

If you cant go recovery try using this method..
It goddamn works ��
Requires sometime to understand it though. But you'll get it ��

I've followed the steps provided in the thread so I assumed that superSU was flashed already.
How to verify if it's flashed or not? Can I verify before moving on to the next step?
My phone is resurrected now thanks to steps provided by summit.
Could it be because I was using TWRP before?

i had problem like you. i dont have bootloader and fastboot. i use xFSTK-Downloader.
success.

1. Make sure your device shows up for awhile during boot
(when the phone vibrates upon boot)
2. Make sure you selected MOOREFIELDS.
3. Once done selecting the files " change the gp override flag under OPTION to 0x80000807"

HTC Desire C root problem

Hello, I want to root my HTC Desire C with Superboot R1 but I cant. When I try it on Windows, the cmd shows me:

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
When I try it on Ubuntu it shows me boot.img error or something similarly. Please, help me, I dont know what I am doing wrong.
Thanks
Are you f**king kiding me?! At first I must root the phone. Please dont spam this thread. Thanks
Are you running it as administrator? If you do, please try simply launching it without admin rights.
And no, he is not "f**king kiding" you. You don't need root to flash a new ROM, you need custom recovery for that job.
Yes, I run it as administrator and I tried it without admin rights too. It just doesnt work.
In Linux it shows me:
downloading 'boot.img'... FAILED (status malformed (1 bytes))
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And I know that I dont need root to flash a rom, but for flashing rom I need recovery and recovery needs root permissions. I rooted a lot of android devices and I know what I do and how it works. But this phone is really hard to root.
Thanks for reply
Try redownloading the boot.img, that's all I can think of.
You can also try this fastboot for Windows, it works fine with my Desire C.
Thanks
I think that in Windows is problem in drivers. Here is screen of drivers list:
As you can see (sorry, Iam from Slovakia and so I have Slovak language in Windows), I havent driver for Android Phone and I think that this is the main problem. But why it wont works in Linux?
I can try your fastboot but I think that it will not works because I havent Android Phone driver.
And in Linux, how I can redownloading boot.img?
Just download it again from Modaco. I think that is the problem.
And if you're interested I can give you drivers for Windows 8 that work with fastboot, being a little weird sometimes though.
Yes, when I double click on boot.img it shows me that the file is damaged. But I downloaded it from modaco again and it shows me that same.
I would like to ask you if you could me upload the drivers which works, because I would like to root this phone finally.
Thanks
I really hope your OS is 64 bit, turns out I don't have 32 bits drivers. I hope this can solve the problem, even though I doubt to(fingers crossed). If it doesn't work, then I really don't know what the problem could be.
YES!!! You are really fantastic! Thank you so much, finally my phone is rooted. Thank you so much
Whoa! Nice, I'm really glad I helped. :highfive:

you should try to push the correct build.prop via the adb. then all should work. and don't put OPEN in build.prop you should put spr (small letters)

you still have custom recovery? if yes, adb side load sprint rom from the sprint development section, then flash it (make sure it flashes successful) Now, your phone should be a sprint g2 again. Now try flashing stock sprint rom via lg flasher tool. It should work now.

updating through lg flasher tool, will not work. Because, it would think your lg isn't a sprint one anymore. so, first check if you have root, then flash custom recovery via this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670
then, once you have custom recovery, flash an sprint rom from sprint development section. Also, to do this you need basic ADB knowledge which isn't that difficult.

Cant flash TWRP

Hey guys I'm kinda new to Android I've had a chappy phone and now an LG g pad after attempting root about a dozen times I finally managed to get it root now I am trying to get TWRP to backup the tablet and change the boot animation later but every time I tried on my pc it would fail so I installed flashify and tried with that I then I got a boot error saying security issues. The tablet stills boots but I believe the problem is the locked boot loader. Thanks for any help offered.

Have you installed root checker or another program to confirm that you do, in fact, have root? Start with that.
If you haven't installed a superuser app to handle permissions, I'd do that as well before trying to install TWRP.
I'll admit I had troubles installing TWRP as well, when looking at the forums, make sure you're downloading the version for your EXACT version of android and firmware, and following the instructions for the right version as well. Good luck!

[Q] GT-N7105 Stuck on Samsung LOGO

I can go into the ODIN MODE [VOLUME DOWN key and then press and hold the POWER button]
but when i try to go in recovery mode... [VOLUME DOWN key and then press and hold the POWER button]
I tried to flash a new rom with ODIN, downloaded on sam mobile, but it miserably failed...
I tried to fix it with kies, “Firmware Upgrade and Initialization" , it downloads something but doesnt do anything else..
What could i do to fix my phone?
I really appreciate any help you can provide. :good:
What error messages did you get in Odin?
@ Audit13
This is the error...
Looks like the phone is running a newer version of 4.4.2 than the firmware you are trying to flash. Download a version of 4.4.2 that is newer than nd3.
This is the only 4.4.2 available for my country sammobile.com
Maybe i should look, and download from another country, what do you think?
I'm experiencing the same issue as you with a N7100 tough.
I tried on a Windows VM with Odin, then on a physical Windows with Odin, then on a Linux machine with Heimdall, and it failed like you.
This is the log I have using heimdall: https://gist.github.com/wget/c898258625a076d07324385ada238572
And I was able to get the PIT file, but I don't know if the RECOVERY, SYSTEM and USERDATA partition are stil working https://gist.github.com/wget/695adc3aff04876a837b39f9fbbf53ab
My purpose is to be able to boot again to that device and recover its data.
You have tried different USB cables and USB ports?
Yes i did with various Samsung cable ,i also changed pc to try it, same error occured.
Can you flash a new recovery on it?
How do i flash a new recovery? Can you tell me what can i do with a new recovery ? (i ve read some informations about flashing recovery / custom recovery , but i dont really know how to proceed.)

Using Odin you can flash TWRP recovery and wipe everything on your phone. After that you can try to flash Stock again or a custom ROM. Maybe a CyanogenMod based. Good luck!

I tried this method, and this is what i get , maybe i'am doing something bad, what could be wrong?
I should wipe whole phone first in order to try this method?
i have the same with my N7100
was working great and suddenly stuck on Samsung logo.
all my screenshots are the same like above
one more is that when i go in download mode and connect to a pc i get the unknown device status
looks like everything is erased
if anyone can help please do
My i317 did the same thing all of a sudden....was running stock, no root. everything was fine and then poof, samsung logo.... now the phone won't even turn on anymore. Heard it's SDS so I got a hold of an old n7105 and switched the motherboard. Now looking for a ROM to flash since I'm starting from scratch again
I tried to install the recovery but it didnt work ( look my previous post)
What could i do to save my phone?
Hello , I'am still stuck with my phone. I don't really know what to do. I hope i can do something with this mobile phone , i dont want to throw it away.
If someone could help me

rooted for first time and removed com.lge.sui.widget now settings not working, help

Hey im new here!
I've had my G3 a while and today i decided to root it and try to install cyanogenmod. So the root went fine i rooted with Kingroot (blue white crown logo) it went fine and it said phone is rooted. but i got stuck a little bit after that when trying to unlock bootloader and kind of advanced stuff like that I downloaded the app ''System app remover (ROOT)'' just to try out some awesome root stuff.
I removed a couple of pre installed programs and files (com.lge.sui.widget was problably then only was that was bad to remove) and now i cant access settings ( little window appearing saying ''Unfortunately settings has stopped working" and my widgets does not work at all. I tried to unroot the phone again with SuperSU but it just says it needs update (which is not working). And root checker says my phone is till rooted, so.
I saw this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/removed-com-lge-sui-widget-bricked-t3145799 and i wonder is this working (flash kdz)? And then i saw this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVLd-HlqveE and it seems quite easy so will this help?
There is another problem i tried to factory reset phone (hard reset when power on it) and i just does not work, when i press yes on everything i shows lg logo BUT with terminal up at the left corner and it says something with error Boot cerification only error and then screen just turns black, and light start blinking red and blue ( it stop when i press volume+ tho?).
After this i can't boot until unplug and plug battery in again then i can boot normally.
So do you guys think this will work? :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVLd-HlqveE or some of this http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/removed-com-lge-sui-widget-bricked-t3145799?
And lg has no official firmware to get it fully factory STOCK or repair software or anything like that?
I guess i should not have tried rooting and stuff att all, it all seems so difficult
I've got an d-855
Thanks
Looks like you were on lollipop and tried to install twrp via twrp manager or flashify?
What state is your phone now? If you can´t boot to android (you should be able to boot..) try holding volume up and connect to pc, see if it loads download mode(software upgrade mode)

So i should download this KDZ file then: http://storagecow.eu/Xda/LG G3/Stock/D855/Europe D85530B_00_1217.kdz? My android version i lollipop i believe but im not entirely sure. I downloaded app ''My android'' and it said lollipop 5.0 so i guess it is. Then i just use the software and follow instructions/the yt video? Thanks.
This one is Marshmallow. If you tend to have a rooted device without custom recovery(twrp) then I would stick with lollipop version 20(20a, b,..., up to 21a)
But marshmallow should provide smoother transitions and overall system performance and features. You can revert at any time.
