I have a Z00AD that has never been rooted and recently I was trying to update the stock via OTA and it got stuck on the logo loading screen.
I then used the guide here (https://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-root-asus-zenfone-2-with-cwm-recovery-and-supersu/) to get into temp CWM, which I then used to flash a new stock rom (UL-Z00A-WW-4.21.40.223-user.zip) via extsd .
It flashed successfully (loaded to the launcher) and when I try to get temp CWM again to flash supersu and root the phone, it wont work. After the T4 process is done and it just says completed, press any key to continue, but the phone just stays in fastboot mode forever. I had to turn it off as it got pretty hot.
Help?
Is anybody out there?
Welp, guess not.

So two days ago I thought about installing Vision X rom on my Note 3 (T Mobile).
I downloaded the ROM and then backed up my current ROM (nandroid). I had Phillz touch recovery then.
Then I thought about going to TWRP and thus I downloaded the latest zip for my phone and flashed it via Phillz upon trying to reboot into recovery it got stuck in the screen "Rebooting Recovery...".
When I restarted it would still try to reboot into recovery and get stuck. I got out of that by going into download mode and then selecting "Restart Phone".
After that I looked for solutions and upon failing to find any I thought about going back to stock and starting from ground zero. I managed to flash the latest stock using Odin however I forgot to do a factory reset before hand.
When I tried to do a factory reset in my, now stock, phone it failed and then got stuck trying to get into recovery. It would flash "Rebooting Recovery..." then restart and flash that in a loop.
I have lost my root as well in the process and trying to root using Odin and CF-Root just get's me back in the recovery boot loop. I can use the phone OK however this is not a stable situation.
I'm sure I've made some serious errors in the tinkering and would like to get my recovery back. I really love Custom Roms. Any kind and knowledgeable souls out there to help me in my cause?

Go to the Playstore and download TWRP Coordinator and then
use it to install the latest TWRP recovery for your phone.
Once you can get back into TWRP recovery you need to flash
the cf-autoroot for your phone. Be sure you flash the CORRECT
version of cf-autoroot for your phone's model.
Good luck!

The app is constantly crashing!
It would start for a second then close. I tried the TWRP manager as well with the same result.
I've lost root access when I Odined back to stock, won't I need root access to install new recoveries?
Sounds like you flashed the stock 4.4 firmware and now need recovery to root. Flash this TWRP file using Odin http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/hltetmo/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.1-hltetmo-4.4.img.tar
Once you flash it, you need to boot into recovery to install supersu to root.
Switch off the Galaxy Note 3 (remove the battery and reinsert if needed)
Next, press and hold simultaneously Volume Up, Home and Power.Release the buttons when the screen flickers and wait for the TWRP menu.
Select Reboot, then System and install Supersu for root.
Once booted, open Supersu to update it and grant permission.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
Hi Guys,
I have been give a Zenfone 2 which cannot reboot into stock recovery or any recovery, basically at the bootloader menu when you select recovery it reboots and goes back to the bootloader menu.
I've installed Rom Manager and it says both TWRP and CWM are installed.
So I believe this has multiple Recoverys and it basically cant use any, I have attempted to flash it back to stock but it wont again even let me into recovery that way.
I was rooted but I fully unrooted it to see if this would make a difference but it made no difference.
The bootloader says unknown and the screen is black on start with the Asus logo so would that suggest it has not got an unlocked bootloader either if so I believe the person who owns the phone tried to flash the untethered version of TWRP without having this unlocked ?
Any ideas how to get this back to stock and a recovery working ?
Thanks
Have you ever tried flashing stock fastboot?
I think the guide of "changing phone's SKU to WW version" can do the trick. Doing this can have official fastboot and recovery flashed on your phone.
So, I was attempting to root my phone(CanvasA1- 4GB) today running stock android marshmallow(6.0.1) , I successfully unlocked the boot loader in fastboot using adb, after which I flashed TWRP recovery, Which was successful but then, When I rebooted into recovery, I saw my old stock google's recovery running , I tried 2-3 more times flashing the recovery in fastboot but the probem was still the same :crying:. Then I came to know that we have to flash a special type of boot img of some 17.5mb approx, When I attempted to flash this "boot" image, I received an error saying file size too large, Hence I couldn't flash it, I am still running the stock recovery, With my bootloader unlocked, I need to root my phone, Please help someone, Thanks in advance .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...-master-tool-unlock-bootloader-t2997696/page1 use this tool and flash custom recovery simple
You can search for Android One Toolkit. Iwas encountering the same problem but this app solved my Problem.

You should never install an update through the phone's update setting while using a custom recovery. The updates are designed to work with the stock recovery only.
If you can still boot into and use TWRP, use it to flash the full ROM of OOS 4.0.3.
If you can't boot into TWRP, try to see if fastboot works and manually sideload a working ROM in.
Otherwise, you're going to have to use the unbrick guide. Your phone doesn't have to be completely bricked to use it. It simply reverts the phone to a truly factory-fresh state (relocks bootloader, wipes everything, etc. - At least method 2 does anyways).
I got stuck in the same situation some time ago, and in order to solve it I had to flash the stock recovery, let it restart, it tried to update (and failed) and then it booted to system again. Hopefully that way you can avoid installing everything again. Once the device boots you can try to update with the stock recovery and revert to twrp if you want.
Hi guys it's been a while since I've rooted any devices but decided to root my LG G PAD 8.3 (V500), since it is so outdated. I'm gonna go over exactly what I did on how I got here to better understand. Sorry in advance for the long winded post.
-Anyway, I had to downgrade to 4.2.2 by using the LG Flash Tool 2014.
-Then, I rooted my device by running root.bat Also, I had SuperSU when I rooted.
-After rooting, I installed TWRP via the play store, downloaded the most recent twrp.img and flashed it via the app. It took me forever to get to recovery by pressing power+volume down and then pressing power+volume down+volume up. But after what felt like 20+ tries, I got to TWRP recovery.
-I wiped my phone and flashed the most recent Lineage ROM. Unfortunately, after flashing the ROM, I could not flash GApps because it rebooted to the ROM after flashing. TWRP let me know that I had to update TWRP and since I did not have the play store and I was once again having trouble getting into recovery, I downloaded the most recent TWRP apk.
-When trying to open the apk, it gave me a "can't open file" message which I didn't understand why. After rebooting, for some reason, it then let me run the TWRP apk and installed the TWRP app. This is when I found out that I was no longer rooted because TWRP notified me. I double checked with root checker and indeed I was no longer rooted. I have no idea when or how that happened.
-Again, I couldn't get into TWRP recovery until I plugged in my phone to my PC and for whatever reason, it helped me get into recovery. I wiped the phone and proceeded to flash Lineage and GApps.
-I read that by flashing SuperSu I may regain root, so downloaded an updated SuperSu, went into recovery and flashed SuperSu. When rebooting, the LG screen came up with a message at the top left corner reading "secure booting error! Boot certification verify". At that point, I was in a bootloop and had to go into recovery, wipe and flash again minus supersu. So I am now on Lineage with GApps and no root.
How do I regain root? And anyone know how I was able to lose it? Back in the day when I was into flashing, I never had these problems and never lost root out of nowhere like this.
Also, if I wanted to get back to stock LG 4.2.2, how would I go about that? I know that currently, I can't use the LG Flash Tool 2014 because my current ROM does not have a USB Software option in order for the tool to recognize the tablet.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
