Has anyone tried the 2.8.7.0 ZE551KL version yet?
Sent from my Zenfone 2 Laser ZE551KL

TWRP 2.8.7.0 boots fine here on ZE551KL / Z00T. Not sure if it flashes normally via fastboot or still needs flashify, haven't tried it yet.
whats up with message to keep system partition read only now? have never seen that before, allowed modifications for now.
Also, does anybody know of any custom ROM like CM-13.0 being made for Z00T model yet?

@rajlko I can be tester in ZE551KL (Z00TD) model.
Thanks in advance for your work friend.

fastboot flash system: partition not found

used my OP7T for a week before deciding to unlock. That went fine, but when I tried to flash a GSI (no custom ROMs available yet), it says partition not found?? Tried system and system_a.

Hey,
I have the same issue, did you ever find a solution?

You must unlock first

You don't say
In the meantime I found the actual solution, here it is for the record : reboot from fastboot to fastbootd using "fastboot reboot fastboot"
And then the commands will work

Can you share that recovery image?
I couldn't find it in the Rom files.

For my 600th post on XDA, I offer this info in hopes it will help.
This one is T-mobile. Don't know if it will help ort harm but it works for me.
I don't have both hands right now; yoiu'll have to search for yourself on how to enter "EDL" mode and possibly an MSM (or is it MDM?) version of stock flashable file for your model and carrier, else maybe try the T-Mobile one at your own risk: Unbrick Tool for T-Mobile
GOOD LUCK

Hi guys,
When I type ' fastboot reboot fastboot ' in windows command prompt, I got the help menu of fastboot, anyone got a solution ?

Did you find a solution ?

Download latest fastboot drivers.
From OS:
adb reboot fastboot
Or from bootloader
fastboot reboot fastboot
With devices launched on Android 10 there is a new interface called fastbootd, this is where you flash the system.

clearly. there is a difference between "old" fastboot (bootloader) and fastbootd (userspace fastboot to support dynamic partitions). You need to be in fastbootd to do most stuff nowadays.

My problem is bit different, can anybody help through this --- System partitioned doesn't exist !!!! while Gsi flashing on Realme 7 RMX2151

So when you see people posting in their tutorial;
fastboot reboot fastboot
NOW we type in;
fastboot reboot fastbootd?

No, same command, but you need stock recovery for this to work (twrp prevents fastbootd entry)

I tried for days to get to work but for TMobile follow guide on here and if it doesn't work even after you install drivers and all then use a different PC bc I have 7t and 8t OnePlus and my 8t unlocked works on my gf PC and her 7t TMobile works on mine figured that out the hard way but it's truthfully a solution when everything won't work

replug or use a different cable.
use a different platform tools (adb and fastboot exe) I prefer the one's from google but not the latest fastboot as it borks flashing stock roms via fastboot

I said those because I had a similar scenario. xiaomi eu fastboot flashes fine but other fastboot roms wont flash properly. its either my port (had to replug), usb drivers and the fastboot exe itself. I fixed it by changing the fastboot.exe to an older one. goodluck with yours hope u get it fixed asap

will try this out tonight... strangely it is due to missing system path to execute fastboot?

Lenovo P2 stuck in "Fast boot" menu. Bricked?

I have a Lenovo P2, unrooted, on stock Android, with a 256mb micro SD card. It hasn't been unlocked/flashed/rooted in any way apart from Developer Options to allow ADB.
A couple of days ago the phone started to lag and lock up, and then rebooted into "AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure)" menu. The only options are Start/Barcodes/Power Off.
The Start and Power Off/On options simply reboot back to the same screen after a couple of seconds. It won't boot back into Android with any combination of volume up/down/power buttons, or offer me any other options such as recovery or clear cache etc.
I've tried rebooting with/without the SD card - it makes no difference.
The phone still appears to be recognised by ADB when I connect it to a laptop - it appears in 'fastboot devices' - but I still can't get it to exit fastboot and boot back into Android with any ADB command.
I've tried downloading Reiboot and "15 second adb" toolkits which claim to exit fastboot mode, but without success.
I'm assuming the bootloader is corrupted.
Can anyone please point me towards any possible action for fixing it, or is it bricked?
Many thanks.

The thing you are on now is the bootloader...
What you did is probably soft bricked the phone.
What did you perform with adb?

If your rom is not booting you might need to reinstall it.

Here's what I've tried with ADB - the phone seems to be connected as evidenced by "fastboot devices", but I don't know what to do now. "Fastboot reboot" just brings me back to the same Fastboot screen in my original post, as does holding down vol+/vol-/power for several seconds.
I successfully unlocked/flashed a ZTE San Francisco Blade back in the day, so I don't mind trying to flash this P2 if that's the answer and you can point me towards a noob-friendly guide, please.

Reinstall the stock rom from fastboot

@Kenora_I
To try and reinstall stock, I'm following the instructions here --> https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/lenovo-p2-fastboot-files-of-every-stock-firmware.3649914/
and have downloaded all the firmware files linked on that page, ie https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=205781
Do I need to unlock the bootloader first?
Well, when I tried to "fastboot oem unlock", I got
fastboot oem unlock
...
FAILED (remote: oem unlock error: partition tampered
I then tried the Flash commands given, and got this error;
Fastboot flash system systemchunk0.img
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'system' (260121 KB)...
OKAY [ 9.303s]
writing 'system'...
FAILED (remote: Not official valid sparse image)
finished. total time: 9.379s
I got this with every set of firmware files on the download link. Am I trying to use the wrong firmware images?
Thanks for any tips and suggestions.

You have to find and flash a valid flash image, try with the same version you were installed on

Can someone provide me with a twrp restore file? I tried to flash the stock rom but the bat file that came with it tampered with some files and I can't even boot into the stock rom

I found this in twrp official web site. I guess this is the reason that every time i try to install twrp and after that, my device get bootloop.
So how can i disable dm-verity?
(Sorry, my English may bad because we don't use that in our country)

Here is the file you need to flash it

Thanks you, but one more thing i need to ask
I tried many times to install LineageOS 18.1 with zip file (by twrp of course). I found out that my phone is a/b device, so i search on youtube "install custom rom on a/b devices" and follow step by step. But nothing happend, twrp still warn "no OS installed" and bootloop everytime
Please, if you know something i really want to use Lineage

Everytime you install any custom ROM you always need to change slot .if you flash on a then switch to b and if flash on b switch to a

It will take to TWRP now flash the lineage 18.1 and after flashing it successful with no errors change slot to b or a depends on which you flash lineage 18.1 and you will successful boot in lineage 18.1
If still failed i will try to make a full video of whole procedure by tomorrow morning

I have another idea.i tried it before . don't install twrp simple go impulsion lineage and download lineage boot.img I mean lineage recovery .if you have SD card copy lineage on SD and after installing lineage recovery with these commands with adb
Fastboot flash boot lineage recovery.img
Fastboot reboot
And now in lineage recovery go to update and select lineage file and flash it after flashing in done simple reboot to lineage

Download latest recovery image of lineage os
LineageOS Downloads
download.lineageos.org

i will try, but also need your video, thank you
