Now, the main part comes, so understand each and every steps carefully.
PROCEDURE
1. Download the zip file from the above link in your PC and unzip it.
2. First, enable the developer option in your zenfone 5. To enable developer option, go to 'about phone' in settings and then go to 'software information' and click 'build number' seven (7) times.
3. After clicking build number seven (7) times, go back to settings menu and there you will find developer option menu. Just click it and scroll down untill you will see "android debbuging". Turn "android debbuging" on.
4. So after activating android debbuging, now shut down your phone.
5. Once your phone is turned off, now go to bootloader mode.To do this Just press power button + volume up button together untill you see asus logo. This will open bootloader window.
6. Now, connect your phone to your PC. (After connecting your phone to PC, open command window and type " fastboot devices " (without quotation mark) and hit enter. If your device is listed there then you are ready to go. Now close that command window which you have opened.)
7. Once your phone is connected to your PC, now open tool folder (which you have downloaded from the above link and unzipped it).
8. Now click on "unlock bootloader(DroidBoot)" or Click on "Unlock bootloader + install twrp" (if you want to unlock bootloader with twrp installed)" and click on run.
9. Now a command window will pop up, all you need to do is just press any key to start the process.
10. Once the process starts your phone will reboot several times, don't get panic.
11. This entire process will take roughly 2 minutes.
12. Once it's done now press any key to close the command window. YOU HAVE JUST UNLOCKED YOUR BOOTLOADER.
Now after unlocking bootloader, check your screen whether it's freezing or not. And also open the camera app to check whether it's working properly or not.

Just Relocking bootloader doesn't solve the problem of camera. We need to flash fastboot.img boot.img recovery.img of stock 2.21.40.30 or 2.22.40.54 then adb sideload 2.21.40.30 or 2.22.40.54 firmware.

You need to do trial & error Asus has messed up by shipping different phones . The method posted by op is for his device so there are minimum chances that you will also get the same result as the OP .

It seems like after unlocking bootloader your screen gets freeze issue. So don't proceed next, just relock your bootloader again.

everything went perfect etc after that I downloaded ROM 'TashakBate' 200mb~

so any ideas what can I do?
If there was already post like this sorry I couldn't find it.
Hi there,
Okay the process you linked (assuming it went well) should have provided you with a rooted device with S-OFF.
Have you tried rebooting the phone into recovery? Did you download your ROM via ROM manager? At what point did your phone start "going crazy"?
As much information about the issue as possible will help us to help you

This is the one I have used the last 5 times under a variety of messed up situations and it always works. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND TAKE YOUR TIME. It seems like a lot to do but it is not that bad after the first time you have all the files. Make a "Phone" folder on your computer and put all the files in there and keep everything nice and tidy. Follow the instructions and it will fix just about everything.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2302660
P.S. When you get everything downloaded and unzipped..and you start flash tools with a # you found on the internet..maybe something like 39B0-IH19-4UAO-G6T8. you have checked manual mode on flash tools and put in the file locations in the top two slots, and you finally hit the yellow arrow at the top left....it will say "waiting" for about a minute. THIS IS NOT waiting on you to plug phone in!! You plug phone in when it says ready and that window with "waiting" goes away. Do not unplug the phone either just because it reboots. You need to wait until the bar turns blue and it says complete. This happens around 522 seconds or after.
this just saved my phone from being stuck on recovery! thanks!
I wonder if anyone has solved the battery issue with this method ????
Many users report that while using this method all goes well till around 45% complete and they get a message "Can not continue due to low battery level, please charge phone fully and try again".
This despite the phone being fully charged.
A very common problem it seems.

This is rooting script only for ASUS Zenfone 5 (T00F/T00J) with official WW-2.22.40.54 (4.4.2) firmware.
Upgrading will unroot your phone.
If you want to have rooted lollipop, find another rooting solution.
8. April 2017 note: I don't use anymore this phone and I can't help with questions. Rooting method should still works. Sorry for the inconvenience.
If this rooting solution doesn't work, probably you're doing some wrong. There's several thousand people (or more) from around the world which successfully rooted and fixed theirs phones. If you have any questions or problem - please read first whole thread. I'm trying answer all questions and I place the most popular in first post.
Rooting script
Read manual
Download rooting script
I want to share my work. I created github repository - feel free to fork etc.
Simple FAQ and tips
Want more help?
Video tutorial by Majci8
Older version of firmware
Do you have older version of firmware? Update it and apply rooting script.
Download official firmware (select android -> firmware, and search site with phrase WW_2.22.40.54)
Newer version of firmware
I actually doesn't like lollipop and I don't provide any support for rooting newer android. Probably there are available other solutions. At this moment the 2.22.40.54 version is the newest kitkat for Asus Zenfone 5.
"No camera is found" bug
Do you have "no camera is found" problem? This script fixes this. I spend few long days to fixing "no camera is found" bug after applying shakalacka's rooting script. And I GOT IT! I mixed shakalaca and Vipin Arumugham solutions. Thank you guys!
How update firmware by sideload method?
Boot your phone to recovery mode.
When "No command" message appears, press and hold down volume button, and press once (still holding down volume) up volume button. You are now in recovery menu.
Select apply update from ADB.
Connect phone by USB cable to your computer.
Run from terminal: adb sideload new-firmware.zip
Note: you can sideload only firmware with the same or higher version. Firmware can be downgraded too, but this is little more complicated.
Unroot
Eh, really? Why do you want to unroot your phone? Use sideload method to apply firmware again (yes, with the same version). This will format your /system partition and install whole android system again.
Thanks for every mentioned person! Your comments, messages and other help is really great!

Yes, you need reboot to bootloader.
If you're on linux, just run .sh script and it will do everything for you. There's manual for other system.
Hi, thank you for this solution..
there's a chance that it could work also with 2.21.40.44? I think that most most people with this problem has the same firmware...

Is there any reason to not use 2.22.40.54? It is the newest kitkat for our phone. Just download the firmware, update, and use rooting script.

The reason is that with the previous root... you are not able to upgrade
Just tried this morning :good: :good:

I spend few long days to fixing "no camera is found" bug after applying shakalacka's rooting script. And I GOT IT! I mixed shakalaca and Vipin Arumugham[/URL] solutions. Thank you guys!
I want to share my work. I created github repository - feeel free to fork etc.
My solution was tested on ASUS Zenfone 5 (T00F/T00J) with WW-2.22.40.54 firmware.

First, sideload firmware 2.22.40.54 (long process).
Second, do the basic setup after your phone turns on (unlock dev options, turn on usb debugging).
Third, turn off and go to bootloader (droidbot), do all the things in manual.
Finally, you are golden.
I'm glad I could help. Have a nice day.

Run:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
When bootloader boots, select RECOVERY option. When recovery boots, press and hold volume down, and press once volume up.
Menu should appears.

Just select "Apply ADB update" and run adb sideload filename-of-firmware.zip and wait...
It's really simple.

how to unroot?
What should I do if one day I want to unroot the z5?
Hello, today i flashed one of the new nougat stock roms. The first boot was fine, everything worked perfectly . But after rebooting I've got the "your device is corrupt. it cannot be trusted and it may not work properly" message, and it wont boot anymore. I cant go into recovery and i cant go into download mode because i get the same the same message and the phone reboots. i can only access the fastboot mode for bootloader unlock, and apparently that my bootloader is now locked. So I've tried to unlock the bootloader again, but it says "Wrong Bootloader Unlock key". Anyone has any idea?

I have the exact same problem and to be honest I think we are f*****. I haven't found any way to re-unlock the bootloader since it seems that the unlock.bin doesn't match with the Device-ID anymore.
This is an IMEI problem. It goes to 0, so the unlock.bin no longer works. I also had this message but my phone was still booting. So I was able to solve the problem.
But you, you can not start your phone, so I do not know how to fix your problem. Sorry

No it isn't an IMEI problem, I can reboot my phone and I can access the download mode to flash a KDZ which I did.
EDIT: Oh but I just see in the settings that my IMEI indeed turned into a zero... I do have a TWRP backup of my IMEI.
I quess it's a better idea to make my own G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting thread for help.
I reply in your topic

Hhmm maybe you aren't totally lost, you can access Fastboot mode right, so how have you tried to access the Download mode? You pressed the Volume up button and connected your device with a USB?
It seems you have the same problem as I had, your IMEI turned into a "0", that's why your unlock.bin fails to flash. Just try to access the Download mode for a couple of times, maybe with a but of luck it wil boot into Download mode eventually.
Is there a way to change imei on nougat? Because i cant go in download mode to downgrade to mm
Having the same issue. Cant enter on download or recovery. Fking sht

I've tried like 20 times already, unfortunately it reboots almost instantly.
We all have the same problem at this point I know that we either hold the smartphone so or we send it to assistance but considering that it is not covered by warranty do not know how long it is

Same to me
Try this method to live your download mode - https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/...lcomm-t3452853
You can try a last attempt before you give up if you can not fix it: write an email to [email protected] explains the problem that you've updated to nougat beta and now your bootloader has re-locked and your imei is set on 0 and so the unlock.bin file does not work, try to see if they send you a working one, yesterday I wrote the email and they also answered me asking for more info but I have now solved the problem. Attach the device id and a photo of the back of the phone where the imei is written. Try it

I nor xda will be held responsible for anything that may happen to your phone
You are choosing to install this yourself and thus take full responsibility for any/all risks involved.
MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE DOING ANYTHING
---------------------------------------------------------------
For that 2 things are necessary to be unlocked OEM lock and Bootloader
---------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------
1. Tab 7 times on build number and unlock Developer options
2. unlock Oem Lock
and done
---------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------
This will wipe your internel sd
1. Turn of your device
2. now press volume up + down and connect to pc using usb cable ( you shoud be able to view download mode screen )
3. now there would be a 3 option too in between to unlock bootloader make sure to click the 2nd option
That will unlock your bootloader
Once Bootloader Wpes Your Internel Boot into System And Setup your Device
1. Make sure it is connected to the internet or the rmm triggers to prenormal
2. Setup the phone without google account
---------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------
1. Get your Recovery from here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a50/development/recovery-twrp-galaxy-a50-t3916199
Thanks to @geiti94
2. Turn off your device ( Be Sure You Have OEM UNLOCKED AND BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED )
3. Volume up + power and get into stock recovery mode
4. Wipe Data
5. Directly boot into Download Mode
8. Select TwrpRecovery.Tar into Ap
9. Now keep pressing volume up + power to boot into twrp
6. Flash encryption zip from here (make sure its in your micro sd card)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a50/development/recovery-twrp-galaxy-a50-t3916199
Thanks to @geiti94
7. Select reboot > into recovery and let system boot
8. if it reboots again then keep pressing volume up + power and boot into recovery and then reboot > recovery
---------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE : NEVER EVER REBOOT NORMALLY OR YOU LOOSE TWRP AND SYSTEM WONT BOOT ,
ALWAYS MAKE SURE YOU USE VOL UP + POWER TO BOOT INTO TWRP AND SELECT REBOOT > RECOVERY
---------------------------------------------------------------
Few Things To Note and Take Care of :highfive:
press volume up + power till you see bootloader screen to boot into rooted system
if you dont press it you will boot into unrooted screen
if you keep pressing it after bootloader screen you will boot into twrp

What do you mean flash magisk? Is it flashable via Odin? or Just TWRP? coz I can't boot my device to twrp so I won't be able to flash magisk via TWRP.
@Er. Aditya any luck with fastboot mode? Want to enter an ADB command without damaging warranty and OTA. Thanks.
