Flash Stock Rom Asus_Z00AD

Hey everyone! This is my first post to XDA forums EVER, and I need a lot of help since I'm a newbie to how Android flashing works, so go easy on me
So as the title suggests, I want to flash my Asus Zenfone 2 with the stock rom. My current build number is: LRX21V.WW-ASUS_Z00A-2.20.40.97_20150917_1572_user044030427_201501060109
The reason I want to flash the stock rom again is because I removed some of the bloatware from my phone (such as BBL actors for omlet) and other crap, but some of it won't let me reinstall, and because of me removing some of the bloatware crap, I can't use some features on my phone. I've tried flashing supposed stock roms before for my phone from a windows CMD prompt, but they failed to write (for whatever reason?).
I'm rooted with some 1-tap windows cmd prompt thing, have a locked bootloader (thats the thing to install custom roms, right?) and the stock recovery (tried using the TWP app to flash the TWP recovery, but it didn't seem to work, and would just leave the normal recovery?)
I've come here for the intelligent minds to help me out! Please help lol

Have you tried to use adb sideload command into recovery mode?

You have to flash the stock recovery, then, enter in recovery mode an flash the official ROM via cmd. You can follow this tutorial www.asuszenfoneblog.com/2015/04/how-to-flash-asus-zenfone-2-via-adb.html
Hope this can help you.

Won't that just update the O.S? I heard ADB sideload in the recovery just updates the O.S to a newer version? And why would this work, but not fastboot? Alsol, does ADB sideload work if USB debugging is off?

Stock Rom flashing without pc?

Can i flash the stock rom with twrp or only with pc? I dont find a stock rom for flashing with twrp.

Of course you can flash a stock rom with twrp No pc. Most if not all developers usually offer a stock version maybe just debloated some .
But that doesn't make the device Truly stock.
You would have to fastboot adb flash the stock firmware after relocking the bootloader making it out the box stock.
You can still flash a zip or .img from flashify app which means you can unroot without a pc by flashing stock recovery.img
Then choose full unroot inside SuperSU then factory reset device within the settings menu all with no Pc.
If your doing this already on stock rom and stock kernel the unroot will stick
If you do this on a custom rom or kernel it may auto reroot\install SuperSU.

OR better yet download it all stock and flash in twrp.
This is stock rom meaning Rom only roms dont flash stock recovery only the O.S This rom is from Android dev section you'd seen it if you looked in the rom section
It's pure stock 6.0.1 you must have already been on 6.0.1 firmware update not 6.0 otherwise you need the newer boot.IMG to get it to boot up.
Providing You were on 6.0.1 Now have a stock rom "BUT" still will have custom recovery after this flash because its non rooted Rom.
So now the catch 22 is that you can't flashify the stock recovery.img from flashify app without a pc at this point because there is no SuperSU root until you fastboot adb stock 6.0.1 recovery.img with a PC.

Not yet, FlashFire get Android 6 support only few days back, but I will try it next weekend.

I just flashed February factory image with FlashFire, everything is OK, but I forgot to say that you need root, sorry

Ok so I accidentally flashed the wrong TWRP img file. Now I get booting error. Can I just use flashify or rashr to flash stock kdz file. No access to a computer at all. Please exain how to flash back to stock no PC. Also eligible for an OTA updat. Can I just allow it to update to current updated software? Will that put my factory recovery img back ? Pls email me if you know as I don't get n here every day [email protected]

Yes, switch from showing zip to img

Decryption problem
It's not possible to decrypt the phone (when partition is encrypted) with this version of TWRP.
It doesnt accept password used for encryption, and of course it does not work with "default_password"

If not .. than you have to flash the whole firmware again.

Use official Motorola instructions here: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/recovery-images
Or the instructions here under the "Unbricking / Stock" section: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z-play/how-to/howto-moto-z-play-unlock-root-t3508547

Yes. You need to install a custom boot logo with the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash logo <FILE>.bin

Thank you. I have 2 question, if you could answer these that would be of great help.
1) is there any way to bring the phone back in warranty?
2) I installed the russian firmware and if i wish to install Indian firmware, any idea where can i get it? i searched almost everywhere but couldnt find it.
version is npn25.137-15-2

First of all, this thread is in the wrong section. This section is for development only, and you're not developing anything here. Move this thread to the General Q&A section.
Second, you didn't read the post I linked. The second link has 2 links for repositories with many factory images. Since I'm in a good mood, here's one with many choices for you: https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/addison/official/

Have you unlocked the bootloader yet? Do you get a success/failure when you try to flash using fastboot? Do you have twrp.img in the same folder as fastboot.exe?

Sounds like you need to update the fastboot drivers. While the device is in fastboot, go to device manager and look for an unknown device that is probably your phone. You'll need to update the drivers to have it show Android Bootloader Interface.
