I wanted to downgrade to 5.0 to unlock the bootloader and install a custom recovery and ROM. Used the official FW from the Asus page, installed it from within the OS (android MM stock). It all went as expected until at the end of the install it rebooted and got into the bootloader screen instead of booting normally. It won't go into recovery.
Phone will NOT turn on with power button + volume down button, not ever.
Power button + volume up does nothing, it turns the phone on just like the power button alone would do.
Once in the stock bootloader if I select [recovery mode] it will simply reset and go back to where I was. I never get the dead android error, it just go back to the bootloader select menu
I get this screen

What can I do? all the tutorials I seen either asume I can get into recovery or use power button + volume down button which in my case doesn't works
Find images of system, ifwi, recovery etc. and fastboot flash them. you can try first with recovery only. the adb command will be "fastboot flash recovery recovery.

I looked at the guides, most require recovery on the phone to work (it doesnt here, just reboots back into the bootloader) and for some reason adb can't find this phone, tried on 2 different computers
BTW I tried with another android phone and adb worked just fine
How is it possible no computer can even tell this phone is connected at all?

Poll out the battery, put it back, press vol [-] + power, wipe data and cache, press reboot and IMMEDIATLY press vol [+] so you can acces bootloader and flash a new sbf (make sure you flash a froyo sbf)

How you did that? I've got the same problem
To enter in stock recovery you must press both volume buttons (if you are on Froyo) or the right lower corner of the screen (if you are on Eclair) when the Android with the exclamation mark appears.
If screen show droid and exclamation mark, you must pressing the Volume button twice to enter Stock recovery menu
use Volume up / down to select and then press the Power button to execute the selected command.

wipe data/factory reset, then wipe cache partition and reboot
After that, access bootloader and flash a new (2.2.2) sbf

Hello devs,
my HTC Desire Z broke over night.
The phone still works, boots and runs as expected, but the Screen is dead, although the Touchscreen is still working (PatternUnlock working and so on).
I want to send it in for warranty repair, but I still have flashed Clockwork Recovery with S-OFFand Cyanogen 9 RC1 and root.
That's the reason why I want to flash the original image PC10IMG via fastboot.
How can I access the bootloader and boot into fastboot?
I tried:
Volume Down and waiting long enough (~45s) and then pressed Power to access Fastboot, but it doesn't work.
(I think the clockwork menu is presented instead of the android bootloader menu, which I don't know by minds).
Debug mode is off on the phone, so "adb reboot fastboot" does not work
Can someone with a Desire Z and Clockwork Recovery flashed give an step-by-step instruction how to boot into fastboot if your screen is dead?
Thank you in advance.

That's what I tried already, but sadly it doesn't work due to Clockwork Recovery I think.
My device reboots when I press power after one minute, which makes sense if this screenshot represents my menu.

In the ClockworkMod in this screenshot is fastboot not listed and I couldn't find a screenshot of the advanced menu nor the complete menu structure where fastboot was listed.
I'm using the most recent version of Clockwork Rom Manager and Recovery Image
Should be 5.0.2.7 I think.
You don't need to use recovery at all with my guide.
You can go straight to fastboot mode, from powered down, by holding the Trackpad while powering on, then you can use your computer to talk to it and send a rom to flash.

Thank you very much I didn't knew the Trackpad shortcut and didn't find / oversee it in your guide.
That was the one I needed.
You made my day!
:fingers-crossed:
Yeah I don't think I mentioned it in my guide, as the guide is also written for Ace/Glacier, which don't have trackpads.
I'm glad you managed to get it sorted

I have ZE55ML 4gb version. Ok so, tried manually applying an ota update to my phone, i renamed it to MOFD_SUPDATE or whatever its supposed to be. I did not unroot or anything. It didnt work i got the error error executing updater binary in zip. So then I wiped my cach/dalvik, data, and system like a moron reboot into recovery and tried the update again... well it failed again... so I tried to just reboot my phone and now its stuck on the damn ASUS powered by android screen... I can turn it off by holding the power button and turn it on the same way and it will be stuck there. I would have been able to fix this by myself but I cant boot into bootloader/recovery. Power+volume up doesnt do and neither does Power+volume down.... So what do I do am I just ****ed?

Hold power for about 10+ seconds and it will turn off.
Go to Original Android Developement and then find pre-rooted rom. The latest for the 551ML is 2.20.40.90, put the phone in bootloader mode and install the system.img file using fastboot.
Next time unroot...

Try this
To download a ftf(a flashable file this is in types choose your type e.g, my mobile is
Xperia m c2004 so I choose "Firmware C2004 15.2.A.2.5 Generic Unbranded Brazil (4.2.2 JB)"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2697277
And this by myself
Do as I say don't add anything
Now first of all download these
1.Flash tool (I know you already have)
2.Download CWM.img link(ignore if you already have)
LINK2-http://fs1.d-h.st/download/00124/TY6....1.5%20ROM.img
3.open flashtool and select flash icon and choose Fastboot
4.Now connect your device while pressing volume down button(device must be switched off by removing direct battery)
6.flashtool will show message "device connected in fastboot" then continue to next step
5.Now after choosing fastboot menu there is a option "Select a kernal to flash" select that option and browse the folder where you have downloaded CWM.img now you can't see that .img File because the browse the location that you have selected has by default extension ".sin" just select it to ".img"(see attachments) and flash it.
6.After this Turn on device and the notification below device glows pink.Abruptly hold volume up button and enter CWM recovery and select mounts s backup and format /system /boot /cache /data.
7.Now connect it to flashmode and flash the desired ftf(don't flash any other) choose from top given link
8.Comment Straight forward it works or not
Hello,
I have a z2 pro, and i wanted to change the ROM on it. Since it came with a modified ROM, i flash a stock ROM. I then unlocked bootloader sucessfully.
I transfered the new ROM to the phone and did a
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
The phone booted with twrp correctly. I then did a wipe of system, cache and dalvik.
I tried to install the new ROM, but it prompted me the error "Unknown Command [log]". Having already installed a new ROM on another device, i remembered that disconnecting the usb cable or rebooting did the work, so i did both.
Now, the phone isn't recognized by my computer, so i can't redo the "fastboot flash", and when i go into recovery mode, it isn't TWRP that is loaded but this

How can i do to load TWRP again on the phone ?
Edit: I have shut down the phone and hold the power button, windows seems to recognize it as a cd drive. QFIL still doesn't change his status from "no port available"
Thanks
