Couldn't update ASUS ZenFone 2 laser 550kL
Facing the same problem
Baseband version - 202c10_10.0.0_160602
Build no. - WW_21.40.1220.1708.20160621
First I tried to update automatically through OTA update but failed.
Downloaded file from ASUS website (build no. 1877 ) and tried to do it manually by placing it in the root folder but still that failed.
ERROR - E: failed to mount / asdf ( invalid argument )
Please help with updation using simple method
flash stock recovery first if you want to do Gabbro16Hz method.
3gb ram varient of ze550kl has this kind of problem.
You need to download latest firmware from the asus' site. Place it in the sd card.
Enable usb debugging in developers' setting. Then boot your phone into fastboot mode. Connect phone to pc via cable.
Then put the tools.zip file in the pc and unzip it. Open that folder. Run 'flash all.bat' file. This will flash stock recivery to your phone.
Now boot phone into recovery mode. Select 'apply update from sd card. Select the firmware and flash. Then reboot. Work done. Your phone will have latest update.

[HELP]ASUS ZENFONE 2 LASER ZE500KL, No Fastboot, No Recovery, but can open the phone

Hello guys.
I have a zenfone 2 laser ze500kl. I downgraded my phone via twrp and install from MM to L version, but when I successfully installed the L version i cannot access to a fastboot mode or stock recovery. Only the asus logo displayed. I manage to remove the battery to restart and successfully gain access to my installed apps and used it but the fastboot mode is gone. Im afraid to type a command in cmd again because im afraid that it will bricked and I cant access to a fastboot mode or srock recovery.
Anyone can help me please. System veraion is WW_12.8.5.118
If you have the firmware of your MM stock from ASUS website, try to copy it in your external and internal sd card. Go to setting and check for update if something pop up about update, update it maybe it will install the MM ROM with fastboot and recovery. Try also to restart phone and check for update.
PsS. Why bother to downgrade when MM is better the L?

im just trying to root my phone, i read in the forum that it is tested to root asus ze500kl with L version.
i have a copy of both MM and L to my sd card. is it safe to update it via settings update?
I dont know but I think it is safe to update back to MM via update setting and maybe it will restore your fastboot and recovery. Because you encounter those problem while flashing back to L.
It is easy to root your once you have TWRP insalled, just flash Superuser or SuperSU zip and your stock ROM will be rooted.
Did you try rooting your asus ze500kl in MM veraion?
Im following a thread here. He said he successfully rooted his asus via cmd. "mod_boot.img" he share in the forum.
I dont have ze500kl, generally you can root your phone by flashing supersu or superuser zip.
Ah ok. Tnx for the help bro. Appreciate it
Asus zenfone 2ze500kl
I cant get into a recovery mode or fastboot mode by pressing the combination of keys. What can I do to get to recovery mode to be able to flash os? Now just Asus logo appears all the time and nothing happens.
Help please!

Hardest Bricked my P10 Plus. Can't even turn my phone off.

However, if you are watching this, it means ur phone is bricked with huawei p10 lite/p10/p10 plus
Read the replies and follow the instruction noted by @Blackball and his links.
Then you will find you self a way to restore the phone.
Thanks again to @Blackball and rest of you guys, much appreciated for your help.
What on earth is Yoroot?
So, You can't enter fastboot mode am i right ?
Do you connect usb cable to your devices before press Vol- and Power button ?
Current Situation
After the battery was dead, i actually can enter the fastboot and i used TWRP 3.1.1 for huawei P10 Plus from github. double wiped my device and by far i have entered the system normally.
However, the ROM wasn't official and i lost my warranty for unlock my huawei phone. And the custom service from Huawei said that they don't provide any official ROM Since it's Android 7.0 .
This ROM is really crappy that i can't delete/uninstall any Application i installed.(It gets reboot everytime i try to and the Application is still there even i just tried to Delete/Uninstall).
Worst of all, some options does not work properly in "Option" menu . (For example i can't access to "Developer mode" that everytime i press it it tabbed back to the former menu.)
I really hate this crappy menu so i tried to search on the internet for P10 Plus ROM so far i get B133 update ROM i can find and i tried to install it from SDcard by pressing VOL - and VOL + and Power buttom.
It says failed to update system at 5% while updating/recoverying the system.
and the ROM which i'm using was found in HUAWEI's official fan forum from Club.Huawei.com a forum belongs in china.(Rooted rom B140).
Right now seems the only option for me is to find a better ROM than this .(At least won't get me so many bugs like this one .:crying: )
and Thanks for your comment "Bigbearxl" it worked as normally it should after the battery was dead then i recharged it.
Yet Right now the PC doesn't recognize the device though Via-Usb because it's not Huawei official ROM and Hisuite helper only recognize their own ROM and the rest Phone helper or ADB can't recognize the device while The Phone is Booting normal .
And Reply to "Craphead" Yoroot is a special Root tool for Huawei P10/P10 plus made by chinese from Huawei Fan Club forum.
New Update
After rewrited boot.img though fastboot mode from https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/help/root-huawei-p10-p10-t3589946 thanks to "yury_z, " i can start to delete files with current system, but it's still crappy that it doesn't even have camera
So i think i will try dload method to recovery my phone with firware that i found in forum.
Failed
Looks like i have to stock with that bit longer
dload with update.app method failed. and recovery TWRP install missing md5.
Unless i get System.img or i guess i can't get another system.:crying:
This work for P10plus too

Maybe you could also try installing stock firmware with funkyhuawei, it's not for free though. But dload method never works on P10/plus unfortunately.
thanks @Blackball and @Craphead. i checked both of your method but didn't work and this new twrp 3.1.0 i downloaded displayed sd card 0mb. and i followed poster's step and missing one file.
However i might found a useful Thead that might work and i'm gonna try tonight.

That is what I wrote.
It seems that firmware finder work for P10/plus now.

@Blackball not sure you what you mean by that, do you mean that you can actually use it to install firmware on p10/p10 plus now? If so how did they manage to get around the authentication issue?
I debranded my phone from L09 to L29 DualSim with this guide. It work with moded stock recoverys.

well i tried your method but there were some file that can't be downloaded from that post so i used another and,eventhough with complete files, the method i posted and i was going to use it tonight. Failed.
did all the steps from update.bat indicated and all worked fine till the last step that it says " automaticly install system" and the phone shows error at recovery.(similar to dload method because it automaticly create dload and exact those ROM files)
it indicates a big red " ! " sign and stopped. basicly i'm back to "No System Status"
The only method wowrks for my "P10 Plus" is " flash system system.img " method.
yet i don't know how to exact system.img boot.img recovery.img etc from those stock firmware like those chinese.
i have some of their rewrote roms (it's crappy because i has no default camera and it's for chinese P10 Plus A.K.A VKY_L29) .
Yet i can't find any System.img on google by far.

I haven't tried your Firmware Finder method , i think i can install crappy system.img then try your Firmware Finder method.
Because right now i wiped my system and i'm without system :crying:
Guys This Thead https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2315547
tells you how extract flashable rom files from firmware update.app.
It should work but i only made to Unknownfile XX .img and i can't download his script "HuaweiFinder" from his google drive.
Holy Crap it worked, i Extracted system.img and other img from update.app by some Chinese scripted unpack script. and I'm trying to restore my device though fastboot mode with adb.

well just tried your method and at last step it says installing failed. then i reboot entered rec mode choose wipe/factory reset
wiped till 50% and stopped, it can't factory reset.
Before this method fastboot mode was " Phone unlock " " Bootloader unlock."
Now it's just "Phone unlock"
now i'm stuck at boot loop "your device is booting now" then it rebooted and back to "your device is booting now" again then automaticly goes to Erecovery mode. I have to shutdown device for now and hope i can find some solution tomorrow :S
When you try this :

It's important that you have the 3 zip files from your wanted firmware and rename them correctly. Don't mix with another firmwares.

i did this method yesterday and, well, i can't get update_full_VKY-L09_hw_eu.zip from the link : http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1475/g104/v85029/f1/full/filelist.xml . only Update.zip and Update_full_data.zip . the other one "update_full_VKY-L09_hw_eu.zip" i had to get it from another webside (it's also b133)
it shows a big "!" sign at the last step . i did everything it tells and tried both sdcard&script way to flash twice both rebrand&same brand update.
after the failure i can't enter "Vol +" and "Vol -" and "Power button" to do dload method . When i try to do that it just goes in Recovery mode.
In recovery mode i tried to wipe data/factory reset. It stopps at 50% which is after wipe and starting to factory reset at 50% it failed.
i try to flash in system.img and boot.img yet i still can not enter the system and stuck at bootloop.

If ADB is working,just flash your original (firmware) RECOVERY,BOOT and SYSTEM.img from the update.app zip file...after flashing those 3 img file,just reboot via adb...fastboot reboot
Phone should be like new

Unable to update from Stock ROM ? [LG G6-H870]

Hello, I have an LG G6 H870 , bootloader unlocked, stock rom (I think), and I have made the mistake to check software updates, I continued with the update process and when the phone restarts, it restarts in recovery TWRP mode without doing anything (I still get 'Your device software cannot checked for corruption. Lock the bootloader' message, I also tried to update with the locked bootloader but the message still won't disappear or won't let me update), so I guess the update is failing, now I am stuck with an update notification that won't disappear..I wanted to know if I'm able to get rid of the notification or continue with the update.
Version of Android is 8.0
Software version is 'V20i-EUR-XX'
Have you tried LG Bridge and clicking "update error recovery"?

Will try now and report back
If you have TWRP installed, you can't take OTA updates for stock ROM. Either go back to stock recovery or wait until someone posts a flashable zip of the update.
