If i extract the rom.zip from a RUU .exe, what is the best way to install it? I have clockwork recovery installed.
Thanks.
first of all backup your rom
extract all img files from that zip file

generate md5 sum of all all .img files in terminal or using adb
boot your phone in recovery mode
clean and format all partition data,system,boot and cache
now in nandroid under advance restore restore boot and system partition
Hey xda! I was having trouble restoring my M7_UL to Bell Mobility stock OS, but with the help of the amazing people here on XDA, I have figured it out. here are the steps I took to restore from insertcoin back to stock:
1. download this TWRP backup: https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=61A88C96DFA8F691!624&authkey=!AC-6BqgL8HcbwjU&ithint=file,zip
2. download the matching firmware: https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=61A88C96DFA8F691!623&authkey=!ALE6X9YofxVQr8A&ithint=file,zip
3. download lastest TWRP: http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/164
4. reboot to bootloader, select fastboot, flash TWRP (fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img)
5. Boot into TWRP and backup just the boot, this way it will create the folder on your sd card with the correct name, otherwise backup won't show up
6. reboot into android. copy contents of TWRP backup to the folder created on your sd card
7. reboot back into TWRP. hit restore and wait for it to finish
8. reboot back into bootloader. select fastboot and boot into RUU mode (fastboot oem rebootRUU)
9. flash the firmware (fastboot flash zip 3.23.666.1.zip)
10. firmware flash will stop part way. this is normal. run the exact same command again and it will finish properly this time.
11. reboot back to bootloader (fastboot reboot-bootloader)
12. verify firmware has been flashed correctly (fastboot getvar all)
13. reboot, and take the OTA updates if you wish
14. this is where my instructions end. to finish restoring to 100% stock, follow this guide here, starting from removing the tampered flag: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358738
I hope this helps!

I can't understand what you mean. If you want to install stock rom from TWRP recovery, you have to modify updater-skript.
Why do you can install only the twrp recovery 2.8.7.7, when we have the twrp recovery 3.0.0.2
File img you can flash from fastboot mode. Commands:
fastboot flash system file.img
fastboot flash recovery file.img
fastboot flash boot file.img
or
fastboot boot file.img for example twrp recovery img or stock recovery img. This is command for once booting.
I want to return to original firmware , i download it from the site of asus. So, i booted twrp in fastboot mode (i tried different version of twrp, but the only that starts is the 2.8.7.7 version) using adb.
Now i am in recovery with twrp 2.8.7.7. I can push using .zip files or img files on internal storage.
But i have different problems with this recovery:
IF i use wipe function: error opening sys, could not mount, enabe to mount, ... (failed)
If i install rom or firmware with zip files: error unable to mount, unable to find partition for path.... (failed)
Adb sideload goes failed too.
What should i do???
I think that the problem is in the internal partition... I have to install using a min usb ext storage? or what????? thanks :fingers-crossed:

Easiest way to fix your phone is flash stock rom from stock recovery. Stock rom put to sd card. Reboot to stock recovery and choose flash rom from sd card. New version number system must be the same or higher than installed in the phone.
Do you want to return to the lower version of Android.

Stock recovery doesn't work man. The only recovery that works is the twrp 2.8.7.7. But it has problems.

How did you flash the file twrp.img.
OK guys I've solved the problem. I moved in this way:
1) Volume up + power to go in fastboot mode
2) after installing adb and the other drivers, i've insered these commands:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase system
3) after downloading twrp version 3.0.0 (for the zenfone 2 laser), I load it using the command "fastboot boot (name file twrp).zip"
4) the recovery starts automatically. Now i downloaded the file "back2stock.zip" and the original firmware (WW, worldwide) form the official site of the Asus
5) this passage is the most important:using 7zip I've extracted the file zip of the firmware and the backtostock, then i created a new file using 7zip : in this new zip i've loaded the files inside back2stock and the files file_contentexts, system.new.dat, system.patch.dat, boot.img e system.trasfer.list inside the zip of the official firmware
6) I've loaded this new file on the phone using the command "adb push (new file name).zip /"
7) at last i have installed this file on the phone ENJOY it
