Help! Sensors turned off!

Hello everyone. I was with Android 7 on my ZS570KL and returned to 6 for a tutorial found on the internet and worked, but all the sensors of the device were disabled (screen rotation, gyroscope, approximation, fingerprint [only registers up to 93% and gives error], and all the others). How do I reactivate? I came back to Android 7, formatted the device several times, and nothing solves!

What tutorial and why?

}
I do not remember where I found the tutorial and the files, but the process is this:
1. Download http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZS570KL/UL-Z016-WW-4.12.40.1698-user.zip
2. Download https://mega.nz/#!tp9DSQ4b!3wdDLsh3BBtPju8G74xlDjLJ9QywFaoLs1T11mMt3QQ
3. Unzip FlashTools64_20161125.zip
4. Unzip UL-Z016-WW-4.12.40.1698-user.zip and move out files under firmware-update to FlashTools folder
5. Put downgrade.bat, boot.img, recovery.img to FlashTools folder
6. Reboot phone to bootloader and click downgrade.bat
The reason was to swap the conventional root SU through the Magisk. I tried to reinstall 7 just by replacing the original recovery available here in XDA, but the process was not going to restart, so I followed that one to try to return and reinstall everything. It worked, I got back to 6, but I did not know everything. It looks like a computer without the drivers installed.

I'd downgrade again, if it was me, this time I'd install a stock Rom (MM) from ASUS. Then test everything again. If everything is good to go then I'd root and upgrade.
Changing the OS in the middle doesn't help if you have a problem.
Especially if it just builds upon the foundations of the previous OS...
Did you flash a complete N rom or do an update?

The ROMs I try are exactly those of the Asus site. I tried the downgrade again to version 4.12.40.1698 and realized something when I flash in recovery mode. The following error messages appear:
Unmount of /firmware failed: no such volume
Mount: failed to mount /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/mdtp at /firmware: No such file or directory
Unmount of /firmware failed, no such volume
What is it? How to solve?

I need the original kernel and recovery of the latest firmware released, can anyone make it available?

These recovery images are from nenebear59, thanks to him !
Z016-WW-5.14.44.2212_recovery :
For 2.15GHz CPU
For 2.4GHz CPU

Thank you very much! Now I need the "persist.img" file, of the same rom, can you make it available? I thank you!

I downloaded the source code kernel from the Asus site, and the compressed file has a sensor folder. I downloaded the kernel zip file to my memory card and tried to install via recovery, however the following message appears: E: footer is wrong / E: signature verification failed. How do I get install by recovery or via flash in cmd?

I followed this tutorial (https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/fix-brickloop-audio-fx-fc-efs-corrupt-t2879061) and managed to recover the fingerprint reader, but the others are still turned off. I really need the correct file! Somebody help me, please!

I got it! I used the persist.img of the global rom of the Xiaomi Mi Mix and the sensors came back! Apparently it's a universal file that caters to any device. You can close the topic!

Hi.. i intend to downgrade my asus Zenfone 3 Deluxe to lollipop, can you upload files needed to repair issues please?
thank you!

HELLO! I'm having a similar issue. 5 times my Zs570kl end up stuck in Asus logo boot screen after being charging all night (with alarming overheating) . I had to wipe the device with factory reset every time to get it working again. Last time, when finally booted up, all sensor were off, and I couldn't make them work no matter how much I try factory reseting again. I think i could try to install the persist.img file you mention, could you help me to find it? Thanks so much in advance for your help.

Come on. To downgrade, you need to download the official rom from the Asus website (version WW-4.12.40.1698 - do not forget to check if your device is 2.15 or 2.4 ghz). Downloaded, need to put the rom inside a micro sd card (can not be internal storage, need to be in sd). In addition, it must be with the original recovery (the version is indifferent), if it is in TWRP it will not work. Once you have done this, you will have access to recovery mode, go to the "install zip from sd card" option, locate the zip file of the rom and install it, and just wait. Having problems, report here.

Hello! To reinstall the sensors is very simple (both work to find out the way, but then it gets simple hahaha). Download the adb files (it is available here in the forum, and inside the folder put the persist.img that I will make available here.) Access the fastboot mode on the device, connect to the computer, and open the command prompt inside the folder. Open the CMD, type the following command line: fastboot flash persist persist.img and press enter. The file will be rewritten and after that the sensors will be reconfigured. Restart the device. Having problems, report here.

Solved!

THANK YOU ANDRE!!! I'm really really happy to tell you that everything worked PERFECTLY. I wasn't sure if I need to unlock the bootloader and flash root first, so I tried to do it. I've been able to unlock the bootloader, but for some reason, when I flash the bootroot.img following the instructions from this post - https://forum.xda-developers.com/ze...v-liftoff-zs570klpro-official-unlock-t3557276 -, I get the asus logo boot loop. Anyway, without the root I flash the persist file and, as you said, all the sensors were reconfigured.
Again, muito muito obrigado!!!

Simply... You can't without root.
To get root (permanent root) you must unlock your bootloader........
Please, read this post to understand what i'm talking about https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/nokia-g21-development.4424031/
I think that today there's no way to unlock G10/G20/G21 bootloader. Then, no root or custom recovery can be build.
Maybe, @mvikrant97 can share with us some info (PM).

I unlocked my g20 TA-1343 by taking a hundred tiny screws out , shorting the test point, and using MTK Client 1.6
hyperlink of the link i pastedhttps://github.com/bkerler/mtkclient
I only took it apart because the other option was send it back to HMD
But I don't know how to flash the bin files with magisk or whatever as they're not valid images. but the thing is basically root if i felt like learning.

Lg G8 AT&T boot_b.bin lost, fastboot loop

hello my name is petrus and i have a lg g8 LMG820M ATT with unlocked bootloader, i installed a custom rom ArrowOS 12.1 that worked perfectly, however i went to root with qfil and accidentally ended up replacing boot_b.bin by boot_a.bin , now the phone is stuck on fast boot screen
it already starts directly in fastboot and the text "ACTICE A/B slot - _a" no longer appears on the fastboot screen, there was no backup of boot_b.bin so I don't know how to solve it
Is there anything I can do to get it back? Or did he become a piece of garbage?

No, not a piece of garbage lol. Given the tools available for the G8; qfil, the programmers firehose, engineering abl, it's almost impossible to brick the device.
So, lesson learned; always make a backup. It sounds like you copied the boot partition for the slot that had at&t rom on it, to the slot that had ArrowOS on it? If so, sounds like just finding a copy of the ArrowOS boot partition should work?
Which version are you running? Someone may have that boot partition available.

yes that was exactly it, i understand i will never do anything without backup, i was using Arrow-v12.1-alphalm-UNOFFICIAL-20220627
so if someone has lg g8 and is using Arrow v12.1 alpham send boot_b.bin and I copy it using QFIL will my device boot again?

Well, if all that's changed is the boot partition it should boot again. But I checked on tele group and no one responded with it.
You may have to download the rom and see if you can extract the boot partition from it.

II have the same problem, were you able to solve it?

i need help

I'm trying to extract this boot_b.bin from the room that AsItLies said, but I'm not going to lie I don't have much knowledge of how to do this so I still haven't been able to extract this file
It's very difficult to extract one without knowing how to do it but I'm still trying

Okay, think this is what you need. BUT!! I'm not 100% it is... SO! first thing you do is back up the boot image from the slot you want to replace it with this one. That way, if it doesn't work, you can just reflash the one you backed up and you're none the worse.
Second: IF, when flashing this image to the boot partition (loading it in qfil speak), you get a warning message about 'over flow of data' (or something to that effect), immediately stop, do not continue, as that's an indication it will not only not work but make your situation worse. Good luck
sorry, xda not allowing me to attach, follow this gdrive link for file.

Don't use a usb 3.0 port when using qfil. You have to use a usb 2.0 port. Qfil is old software and was not designed for the higher speeds.
This is important whether making a backup of a partition of flashing a partition, either way with 3.x ports the image can get corrupted.

I put it in a usb 2.0 port and it was the same, this file does not seem to be compatible
Is there anything else I can do to save the device?

I'd suggest joining the tele group for that rom and asking there if anyone can give you the version of the boot partition you need.

Hello, dear owners of this beautiful device.
After an unsuccessful attempt to get root, such a warning appeared, plus the ability to lock the screen disappeared. As a result, I didn't get root either and problems arose)
Could you show the instructions how to fix everything step by step and get root? Thanks)

Hey, so I have the same problem as you. I was installing the patched boot.img file when I rebooted, but there was no magsik app. After I tried to flash the same file again, except I put in some vbmeta file because some website said so, now my phone's files are corrupted. I got into fastboot mode and put through recovery mode, and did a data wipe and one final reboot, but even that did work because it said my phone is corrupt. The last thing I will try is to install TWRP, remove the old data, and install the update to restore the previous ROM files. I'll let you know if anything works. Just try ur methods and let me know if they worked. Sure is an expensive paperweight if it doesn't work...

Your boot loader must be unlock
Reboot to recovery, choose English when you see "Wipe data" type
adb reboot sideload
Once your phone boots into sideload mode (When you see the two error line at the bottom of the screen) type
adb sideload NX729J-update.zip
When the transfer is successful ( with a transfer of 2.0 display) you can wipe the data twice with the first and second options and reboot the phone. If you are lucky, the phone will boot

For QFIL, use Flat Build and in the configuration use ufs. Good luck!

Your version V4.18 will be replaced by V3.19. This V3.19 version can be flashed through edl mode. I could not find V4.18 in this format. The two roms are very similar. They are both global roms.

If QFIL does not work, you need to do side load the rom multiple times again then it might work!

turn off the red rm8 notification (Your device is broken. It is unreliable and may not work)
- enter command on PC: adb reboot "dm-verity enforcing"
- on phone for rooted device with termux: reboot "dm-verity enforcing"

The command on PC shows "Too many arguments." The Termux one works. Thanks!
