Zenphone 2 4 giga ram bricked

Hi, my phone stuck on asus logo.
I can get to cmw tempairy recovery, ithink
When. Install the firmware from asus site, its says cant verify
Failed to verify whole file signature.what shuld i do pleaae?

Okay, not enough information, since you are using cwm temporary I am guessing you have not unlocked your boot loader which will cause the fail, can you get into the bootloader?
If you can follow the instructions and download the current rooted Rom and follow instructions to flash the stock rom

You can't flash asus firmware with cwm.
You can unbrick with adb sideload.
See THIS GUIDE how to sideload

I am done here, if you choose to follow advice to try using temp cwm to fix your phone I am sure you fail, your best solution is to use bootloader to flash, everything you need is in this thread, if you choose not to do the proper research before you start flashing things without doing the proper research before then you are beyond help here.

it says in device manager " asus android bootloader interference"
and in the phone its says normal boot and there is icon of open android/
and it written in blue "continue the fast boot process

try "fastboot devices"
if it answers than try flashing twrp or stock recovery
command to flash recovery "fastboot flash recovery filename.img"
after that u can try to flash custom rom using twrp or stock rom via twrp or stock firmware using adb sideload

I manage to make it work and install cm 13 the latest nightly.but when I make a call or receive one the phone reboots itself. What is the problem? Thanks

Flashable Zip?
I had an update go awry, and now I can't get it to boot into anything but fastboot or twrp!
Can someone possibly make this into a flashable zip so I can install it via twrp? I'm at a loss. I can't get any of the support tools to recognize it. I can't get into download mode either. It just goes straight to twrp.
I was able to try a factory reset, but as soon as I chose 'yes' and hit the power button the second time I got the device software check error (due to unlocked bootloader) and then it goes right into twrp.
Is there anything I can do?
EDIT: I was able to get into download mode and use the LG FlashTool to get back and running **WHEW**

All are .kdz. You will lose root.

Nice, I needed the kdz to experiment with them, right now Im trying so hard in orden to complete an stable rom for our device and having this files is essential. Thenk you.

I haven,t tried yet, so let me ask you guys: can we jump from the 10c kdz to 10e kdz and viceversa or there is antiroll rules?
Another question, have somebody found the 10b kdz?

But the good thing about t-mobile is that rollback protection is not enabled. As a result, you can use the 10C root method, which is basically by flashing a prerooted 10c image to the tablet, to root tablet with 10e. So you can't have rooted 10e but you can root the 10e with prerooted 10c.
---------- Post added at 08:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 PM ----------
Safe to downgrade from 10e to prerooted 10c. Confirmed.

How did you get into download mode? Your problem sound similar to mine. I'm in a bootloop with TWRP installed. I tried wiping all the caches and installing iPioneer via TWRP but nothing seems to work. I even can't turn the device off so I have to un plug the battery. Can you help guide me to the forum posting that you may have used? Thank you. -Steve

What is the difference between the '10c' and 10e' kdz files? I am missing something. I'm looking to flash my tablet back to stock after mistakenly accepting a OTA update (after rooting and TWRP) that sent me into a bootloop.
Thanks in advance. This forum is a life saver.

[SOLVED] Cannot boot into Cyanogenmod, only TWRP. No ROM's working

Edit: Problem has been solved based on instructions provided here.
Long story short I had problems with the newest Cyanogenmod 14 nightly today and had to Factory Reset my phone. Since then I have spent hours installing different ROM's and have been unable to get any to work. They all install just fine, no errors. However I cannot boot into the OS at all. Every time I try to I am automatically booted into TWRP. I don't understand why this is happening after I have repeatedly wiped my entire phone. There is literally nothing on it, I install from scratch, restart... and am booted right back into recovery mode :crying:
Any help is greatly appreciated. I have a reddit thread going on right now as well regarding my problems earlier today but haven't gotten any help.
TWRP Version 3.0.2
Various ROM's I have tried:
cm-13.0-20160820-SNAPSHOT-ZNH5YAO0J9-Z00T.zip
cm-14.1-20161202-NIGHTLY-Z00T.zip
cm-14.1-20161201-NIGHTLY-Z00T.zip

hmm.. try to reboot into bootloader either from recovery or with help of volume plus power button. then flash ifwi, boot, droidboot, recovery and dnx, then install firmware again. if no luck with that. then you have to flash raw firmware using commands

Thank you for the reply!
Rebooting into either bootloader or with the button commands always brings me into TWRP. Nothing else appears to be possible.
Is there another way I can flash what I need? I am not familiar with flashing firmware and am not sure what ifwi droidboot etc. mean, is there a guide you could point me to for this?
Thanks!

If you were on cm14 then you are on an mm based bootloader. You can only install roms based on that. All of the lp bootloader based roms will do exactly what you described. The other alternative is to downgrade the bootloader to lp.

There is or at least was a bug in CM 14.1 within settings , if did a factory reset within settings ...whether it still there today with latest build ? I've not tested
What it does or did, is render your twrp ineffective , you cannot flash or restore.
Above solution fixed or fixes it fast and you can then restore or install cm14.1

How can I get my recovery back?

Hi guys
I was trying to get TWRP on my ZE551ML (WW-2.20.40.198). In order to do that, I tried to unlock the bootloader using this guide. I don't believe it worked, though, because every time I tried to flash TWRP through Fastboot or the app, it failed.
So now, I don't have any recovery at all. If I go to the bootloader and select "RECOVERY MODE", the phone just restarts and goes to the same bootloader again. So I got neither the stock recovery, nor TWRP.
I did manage to root and install Xposed, though, both through adb. What worries me, though, is that if I mess up my phone somehow, I won't be able to flash stock firmware or a backup. I would actually prefer to have the stock recovery at this point.
What can I do? I need the stock recovery to flash the stock firmware, but I can't.
I've tried Asus Flashtool before, but it didn't work. I think maybe it's because I tried it on Windows 10, some users said it worked better with Windows 7.
Help would be greatly appreciated.

You fastboot flash stock recovery for .198 in bootloader state.

I did it, used Fastboot to flash .196 recovery.img. I can now access the stock recovery again! Thank you guys so much for the help! This was a big deal to me, I had been feeling so uncomfortable without having access to the recovery! Thank you!! Will try restoring the stock firmware tomorrow.

By the way, rather than flashing the .198 firmware again, I think it might be a good idea to flash "UL-Z00A-WW-2.20.40.196" from here since that will then correspond to the recovery file I flashed? Thoughts?

Should I now flash the 196 or the 198 firmware through adb? If I flash the 198, will it also restore 198 recovery? I've posted a new thread about it.

Already answered earlier at FYI above
.put MM 4-21.40.134 on internal sd and reboot
Have you not tried ?
No need for multiple threads
Ps , if don't get notification ,go to file manager and add .zip to the end so it looks like user.zip.zip save and reboot again

Oh, sorry, I didn't notice it last time around, I was too excited about getting my recovery back
But what if I don't want Marshmallow, though? If I just want to stay on Lollipop? Do I just flash 198 and that's it?

Actually, I flashed 196, and then I got 198 OTA the moment I booted . I guess that means I've got the 198 recovery too, now?

Yup , like mentioned previous , recovery will be the same from .184 lp

G4 is Finally Unlocked!

After a year of hard work, @steadfasterX has finally unlocked our device! Hopefully we'll get some new roms soon. Full thread is here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/unlock-unlock-lg-g4-device-usu-t3760451
Edit: We are currently able to run any custom rom for H811 on our device! One thing is that we must do the modem flash in TWRP that steadfaster mentions in his FAQ.
Edit 2: Currently only stock Lollipop or stock Marshmallow will run on VS986 with everything working. AOSCP and other custom roms will boot but you will not pull the correct APN for Verizon and therefore will have data but no cell service including MMS or voice calls. You must have the stock MM bootloader stack flashed after you go through the UsU process for everything to work correctly and the stock MM modem.

@fates13,
I know you're trying to get Nougat working on your VS986 and it's not 100% working yet.
I suggest people wait until you get things resolved if they rely on their VS986 as their daily phone.
Please post an update here once you think everything is working. The other thread has a lot of posts since it covers other G4 models too.
Thank you

@fates13,
Were you able to get your VS986 to the point of everything worked after UsU unlock and ROM installation?

Yes but only stock MM works properly with data and cell. This can probably be fixed by a proper rom developer for our phone. Advanced calling also doesn't work properly so just waiting until @steadfasterX has time to make a UsU patched kernel for stock MM.

If your still stuck on boot.img go to your salt back ups is located in the home folder and right click in the folder and click open in terminal put your phone in fastboot mode type in terminal "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and after that "fastboot reboot" and see if your phone boots up if you don't have the salt backup let me know

How exactly did you install TWRP? Or if you solely used magisk, how did you flash the patched_boot.img?

I was asking you about TWRP to see if you installed it. You flash all the files in fastboot. You get into fastboot by unplugging the battery wait 4 seconds plug it back in hold volume down and plug your phone in to your computer you should be in fastboot mode. You can download TWRP from the unlock Page. I will upload the pach boot.img and paste the link for TWRP later because I'm not at my computer right now. Be careful NOT to flash the aboot.img you should only flash the boot.img (once I upload it) and the recovery.img right now

Ah, different person than you were talking to before. The way I read your post, it sounded like maybe you figured out a way to sideload (if that is the correct term) the patched boot image that magisk makes without the part of the UsU method that causes "Once you go this way - there is no way back! SERIOUSLY. The only way to make the device exactly like before is replacing the mainboard. If you're scared: good." Maybe something like this: ?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/how-to-determine-dd-parameters-lg-g4-t3184867
Was just looking into my options for if I should wait until a method comes out that doesn't make a permanent alteration or if I should just go ahead and take the plunge with UsU. Your thoughts on whether that change that is made could affect me badly in the long run?

sorry about that the only way to root the latest FW is to unlock the bootloader. as long as you flow the guide and read carefully you shud be fine and if it's too scary just downgraded to LP and root that way (look on xda Verizon G4 general tab)

Has any one got calling and texting working on any costum rom for vs986?

Probably a dumb question, but I'm on 13b rooted. I read through the unlock thread and it mentions MM is required and anti rollback <=2. My ARB value is currently 2. Can I just use LGUP to flash stock MM? Will this preserve my ARB value?
