hello friends... i have a question, i running cm 13 in my zenfone 2 ZE551MIL.
I have backup from my original rom in my SD card,without root, if i restore this bakcup using TWRP restore tab,can im install asus updates via OTA like a origial Lock bootloader? I intend to back to original rom for update to android 6.0 when asus launch it . Thanks!!!:good:
First things first, you posted your inquiry in the wrong forum. This is the ZenFone 2 Laser variant's forum, whereas your model falls under the general forum, ZenFone 2.
If you DID NOT UNLOCK your device USING the provided ASUS Unlock Tool, you would be able to receive OTA updates as per normal. Recovering your device from a previous backup, or from the full ROM provided on the ASUS support site would not change anything with regards to the receiving of the OTA updates for your device.
With that being said, I highly doubt so Android 6.0 would be available via OTA when it comes out. The previous ASUS phone that I owned, namely, the ZenFone 5 LTE, had to flash the update to Android 5.0 manually instead. The OTA update came out months later.

Hi to all,
i've buy this tablet used from a collegue of my friend.
He give it to me with a modify rom with 3.1 firmware (if i don't wrong, tha name of the rom are "Picasso-ROM" but i'm not sure about it).
I wanna restore the original firmware on it to take the last firmware 3.2.1 (Acer_A500_7.014.14_COM_GEN1) but I can not seem to update to that version of the tablet !
At the moment with the EUUs_SBK_Acer_A500_1.016.05_COM_GEN1 i was able to restore the original Acer recovery (lost with old custom rom) and with OTA now i've the follow update : "A500_7.006.01_COM_GEN1" but the version of Android still 3.2 !
I would not like that when ICS comes out I will not be able to update !
How can i force it ? There is a link where i can download the OTA update ?
Thanks for your support !!
There is no way to force OTA unfortunately - if you've managed to receive the OTA 3.2 then there should be no reason you shouldn't receive 3.2.1 just give it a few days more, some here have had to wait 2-3 weeks for it so I wouldn't panic just yet
Hi,
Did you receive the 3.2.1 yet? I had the same problem yesterday...
tks.

I recently reverted from the leaked ICS 4.0.3 using ATX to flash back to stock 3.0.1. Once I did that, I tried to OTA update to 3.2, without success. So I downloaded the 3.2 update from Vache's thread, renamed it update.zip and threw it on my sdcard. Rebooted into stock recovery and updated. Once I did that, I went into settings and checked for OTA update, and it worked. So I had the same problem with OTA updates, but running 3.0.1. Perhaps downloading the 3.2.1 update will allow you to get OTA updates in the future (it should).
If you want to make sure, try downgrading to 3.0.1, then downloading the 3.2 update from Vache's thread. Then doing OTA update from your tablet and it should work. Hope that at least gives you some inspiration to try some things!
The above post is a viable way..
But also if i remember right.. You can Take any full complete rom pushed by acer.Flash it with the stock recovery.. With the catch the update rom version has to be region matched and a NEWER ROM VERSION.
Hope this makes sense. Its the procedure i have used in the past to test out a OTA.
People are doing this same thing to get the ICS LEAK. FULL ROM. acer will let you move forword as each full push from them added fixes for previous root ability and so on..
That brings me back to thinking ACER Leaked this ics rom just to see how easly it can be broken.
i want to upgrade my andriod version from 3.0.1 to 3.2 or 3.2.1
build number is acer a500 1.016.05_com_gen1
i can't get it viia normal update so if anyone can help me by link that can upgrade it i will be grateful
Hi folks,
Recently I bought a Asus ZF-6 model T00G with:
Firmware: WW_a600cg-WW_user_1.17.40.16xxxxxxxxx
When I try to update with the next firmware from ASUS WEBSITE, the Android causes an ERROR and stop.
Once, I Brick the Android system, after hours searching solution I get wake up again.
My phone has Jelly Bean now, NUT I want to know if exist one process (SECURITY) to update a Zenfone 6 to Lolipop OR Marshmallow.
Tks so much for any help!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Best regards,
Martini :good:
Guys i have recently flashed Lollipop 5.O (Dated 25-02-15) on my device, now there have been many updates after that version as well, approx 6 updates. I would like to know can i simply flash the latest firmware update on my device (Dated 26-03-16)? Before this update there are almost 5 different updates,or is it compulsory that i flash the 5 updates before flashing the latest update as mentioned above.
No need for order, just flash the one you want
I have a Zenfone 3 Z012DE and I do not know what firmware to install, since I have seen different models in the roms and otas uploaded to the forum, I do not know how to check the correct model to which my equipment corresponds
Is possible update to Nougat?, not link for my Firmware of my model ...
Edit: ZE552KL (Asus Z012DE)
Thanks
First off, as a new user I am unable to supply you the link directly to the page but I can direct you to where you would find your update:
If you search in Google "Zenfone 3 Z012DE" (Without quotation marks obviously) then the first link should be an Asus page. Once the page opens, you will see a bunch of gallery pictures of your device, near the top right under the search bar you should see Support, click it. Then, go to Driver & Tools, select Android as your OS and a few boxes should appear. On the second box, you will see the latest Nougat update for your device (WW-14.2020.1706.53). If you notice in your screenshot, your software code starts with WW, only download firmwares that start with WW off Asus support page since those are the only ones that will work with your devices. Unfortunately, if your phone works the same way as mine, your build indicates the date 09/09/2016 which means the latest update may not work because it will refuse to update on a build that is older than 01/20/2017 (I think that's the exact date) in which case you will have to download and upgrade each version at a time until you get to the lastest firmware.
To install the updates, copy them over to an SD card from a PC or download it through your phone and make sure you know where to find it on the SD card, boot into recovery and hit update from SD card.

Flash WW_13.20.10.152 first.
After flashing, update your device to WW_14.2015.1701.8/ WW_14.2015.1701.13
After upgrading to Nougat, flash the new WW_14.2020.1706.53 firmware.
P.S: These update files can be found on ASUS' website.
Hope this helps

Good afternoon, I can install firmware ww15 (Android 8) ASUS_Z012DE?
At the moment I have the firmware WW_13.20.10.152.
Do I have to install the firmware WW_14.2015.1701.8 and then the WW_14.2020.1706.53?
Or can I move from the WW_13.20.10.152 firmware directly to WW-15.0410.1712.31 or WW-15.0410.1801.40?

From what I gather from the thread the zm500 version of twrp also works for z500kl. I cannot confirm this but an individual there suggests it is possible as does the creator of this version of twrp.
and here I've hard time unlocking bootloader.. tried many unlocking apks.. none of them wants to install.
Hello, do you know if it can be rooted? I'd like to install the latest version of Android on my Z500KL...
Thank you.
I'm trying... I'stuck with magisk manager and patched boot.img without fastboot as it doesnt has unlocked bootloader... looking for a twrp to install boot.img but hard to find one.
Any news for this?
Nope
Any news for this? Trying to bypass google authentification, because forgot all credentials. Already have the firmware but need more info about TWRP for this model Asus ZenPad 3S 10 Z500K. Want to reinstall original firmware UL-ASUS_P00I-WW-5.4.6.0.
Nope they'll never allow bootloader unlock in this model.. and never update anymore I presume.. I think asus flashtool will help.. (I hope.)
any progress in this matter? would like to go for a custom rom,too
Just posted this on another thread about unlocking and custom ROM for this tab, hopefully I can get an answer here too and retire this tab if no progress.

Looks like nothing has happened here in a while. Am hoping for an update though if some progress has been made. I can't even unlock the bootloader so far... never mind find a ROM that works on it!
The reason I'm here is, I now find that even the ASUS apps are no longer supported on Android 7 (not that I used the ASUS apps much), but still... I looked on the firmware page and was really saddened by the fact that the JP version (which I have) had only 4 months of support (ie date from first firmware and last firmware is only 4 months apart...). For the WW version, it was 6 months. This is really a complete joke... It's a real pity because the hardware is not bad at all, and it is one of the last 4:3 screen ratio tablets. It's terrible to think that this thing has not had even security updates for the last 5 years, so unless I can get a custom ROM on there, then I think I'm going to have to look elsewhere for something.
