yoga 2 1050F can only access BIOS, let's go to RMA?

Hello everybody, I was trying to revert to a 4.x rom because bluetooth tethering was not working... anyway I used Intel Phone Flash Tool and it seems like he failed to flash boot.bin but restarted anyway
SO I only have the Intel BIOS, I can access all the settings, but I cannot start it in Fastboot mode (it just hangs on FastBoot Starting...) or anything that resembles Android.
Still this BIOS seems more a PC to me than a tablet so I am posting here because maybe there is someway to attach an USB OTG (for example) and boot something from there.

@ionioni is working on a safe downgrade path. We did mine but it could be a disaster if not followed correctly. Your other choice is Lenovo repair support. When i bricked mine, it only took 6 days to get it back in my hands. You could also try the steps here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62237383&postcount=5

Thank you very much @workdowg, I passed by that thread, just "DNX" mode does not work on my tablet.
So Repair Support it is.
It's very sad such an awesome tablet has so poor ROM that people has to downgrade it...

that is DNX mode!!! that message translates to: i DNX have started and now i am waiting for YOU to give me a (fast)boot image to start... so that message is exactly the message indicating that you ARE in dnx mode.
updated: read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/thinkpad-tablet/general/yoga-tab-2-830-1050-1380-to-kitkat-t3240487
edit:
before anything:
1. download/extract the files attached to this post, now start your tablet (using the Pwr+VolUp+VolDown) to get to that somehow confusing "Fastboot starting..." message = DNX mode (you must get to that message before continuing!)
2. run the extracted tmp-root-1050F-lollipop.exe file (i am assuming you are on the X64 = Lollipop firmware as that screen pictures you attached shows), should do some stuff and in the end if all well will drop you to a root shell (in that post theres a PrtScr for reference), just follow the messages it's pretty easy. should the exe get stuck/not work put your tablet again in DNX mode and try the other file tmp-root-1050F-kitkat.exe. (this means somehow the bios got downgraded partially on your attempt to return to kitkat). this is just a test to see how to move on, it will not fix nor change anything on your tab, after you reboot it will be in the same state as before (that is if you don't do stuff in that root shell of course)
- report back which one worked (gived you a shell)
- also do you want to go back on kitkat or do you want to stay on lollipop? is important to know as the steps are different

Help me! Im stupid!

So a while back I rooted my Huawei P8Lite ALE-UL00 (China) and it took a while but it worked out great. Then a few weeks ago I was sick and browsing on my phone when I got a notification from EMUI telling me to update. Being the stupid kid I am I did it. And then it would show the Huawei logo on and on and on. Destined to fix it went to the forums to fix it. did ADB and Fastboot, nothing. Except more problems. Now when I turn it on it directly says this:
RESCUE MODE
Attention!
Please update systems again
Update Use Guide:
--- Android Logo ---
Error!
Func NO : 10 (boot image!)
Func NO: 2 (load failed!)

you can simply flash it by fast boot mod, flash the rom version UL-00-C00-B220
which update version did you got ??

Yes , you need fastboot b220 . Later OTA b230

You could try to only flash the boot.img via adb.

One Problem
I cannot fastboot it, it doesnt take me out of that screen, on my computer it says waiting for device, if i type fastboot devices it doesnt show up. Any other ideas?

Well, first try again and dont forget to close hisuite it does that problem.
If it didint work, turn your device off then hold down volume down button and after 3-4 seconds connect your device to computer via a USB cable it should access you to the bootloader then flash the firmware manually.

important

551ML stuck on fastboot after stupid action, 'fastboot wipe cache' doesn't work.....

Noob so sorry for the stupid mistake.
Have a 551ML, on bliss w/ TWRP and was supposedly rooted already(can't remember which method I used, but the start screen was white background/black words). Have been using the phone for a year without issue.
One day some kind of stupid just came over me, and I followed this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/unlock-zenfone2-android-6-0-beta-unlock-t3411264
without even sure what was I suppose to be doing...(not blaming OP, I am the dumba** here)
everything went through just like suggested, but now the phone start screen shows un-rooted(black background, white words), and the phone is stuck on fastboot... Can't get into recovery or normal boot.
Can anyone advise what am I suppose to do now? I am thinking I need to unbrick the device using this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/guide-brick-soft-hard-bricked-zenfone-2-t3284256
But I am stuck at:
1.2 Connect with computer IntelSoc Zenfone 2:
Can't seems to get the computer to register my 551ML as a 'MOOREFIELD device'?
Can anybody gives me some pointers or maybe there are some easier way for my situation?
p.s. here are the fastboot info, in case it might help:
HW_VERSION - UNKNOWN
IFWI VERSION - 0094.0183
SERIAL NUMBER - 0123456789ABCDEF
SIGNING - ?
SECURE_BOOT - ?
continue the fastboot process
Thx in advance!

flash boot image
then flash recovery image
then any rom you want

Thank you for replying so quickly!!
Can you be more specific on how to 'flash boot image'? I have tried to put the asus OTA image on the SD card, but it didn't triggered....

small update:
I have extracted boot image(boot.img) from ASUS Z00A firmware, and download the correct twrp recovery(twrp.img), and tried the following commands:
fastboot -w
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot erase cache
and the result is still the same. Only able to reboot to bootloader no matter what, with the 'continue the fastboot process'.

Can anybody share some thought? really miss using my Z00A......:crying:

Here is your rescue: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/wwze551ml2-20-40-19420160713-raw-t3437416

Thank you so much!! The ASUS Flash tool works, and I have my Z00DA back to life!
For people with similar issue and want to use the tool, please noted that it takes a while(~15 min for the flash) + the tools does not shows any progress %, and afterward it will takes another 10 mins for the phone to start, so be very patient.....

Recover from Hard Brick (900e) - Revive our Z2 WITHOUT DATA LOSS

Hey!
Z2 owners that like to mess around with their phones are prone to get f#ked. I was there and I faced the problem some of you probably did - a hard brick. There are a ton of tutorials on how to fix it, but I believe I found a new way that doesn't envolve resetting it. I have only tried with twice on my phone, so I'm really looking forward to know if it's universal!
Scenario - Your phone has a black screen. The notification LED is on. If you hold the power button it flashes the ZUK logo and it vibrates. If you identify with this scenario, go forward!
1 - To turn off your device (if you haven't already), press the power + volume up. The phone will vibrate, flash the ZUK logo, turn off the LED and turn it on again. Continue holding both buttons. When the LED turns off again, REMOVE your fingers from both buttons right away. If done correctly, it won't come back again and the LED will be off
2 - Hold both Volume Up and Volume Down at the same time. Connect to the computer. You should encounter your Fastboot mode (with your baseband and other info blank).
3 - Go to your email and redownload the bootloader unlocker. Yes, remember that file? Use it. You can use one of those unlock bootloader tutorials online, but if you know what you're doing, here's the command:
fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash unlock unlock_bootloader.img
4 - Right after that, run this other command
fastboot -i 0x2b4c oem unlock-go
That's it. You should be able to go to the recovery (flash it again just to be sure). Try it out and tell me how it goes.

not working...phone is gettin turned off...but holding up and down..then connecting is doin nothing..it just keeps on going on and off again

This method worked for me,thank a lot of,great trick

Had the same problem and first i went to download mode by following the the below link
https://zukfans.eu/community/threads/how-to-unbrick-zuk-z2-from-diagnostic-port-900e.2856/
then i downloaded the stock firmware and followed this guide

Both of them helped.:good::fingers-crossed: hope they work for you

Help sort of "bricked" phone to unbrick!

My Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 is stuck on the screen," Powered by Android". I have neither rooted nor unlocked the bootloader. I had received the error of "Your device is corrupted" and had followed the guide to remove that. For a month, my phone lagged and had a drop in battery. Restarting it has caused it to not work.Now, it's showing no signs of starting. Any help will be sincerely appreciated!

go for qfil then but use 059 qfil otherwise 130 qfill u will lose your persist,factory,fsg partition. doownload 059 fastboot rom . it is combined fastboot qfill rom. use it same as other qfill rom but choose here ww_no-nfc_no-fsg raw program.
btw your device showing powered by android that means u can go into fastboot mode and recovery mode both. just press and hold power button untill u see restart of ur screen. as soon as u see that press violume up along with power key. u will def get acess to fastboot mode.

Didn't worked.. QFIL s/w was not able to detect the port even after connecting the mobile.. Tried to completely discharge and recharge hoping it would work.. Now, its not even recharging.. Nothing works now..Feels like a motherboard problem now..Should I rebuy the 4GB version or look for another mobile?

Try asus service center

motherboard issue not lead to sudden death of phone. did u encounter random reboot before every 10-20 mins if not no worry.
for qfill u have to turn off your phone and press vol + and vol - together and have to connect your hpone with pc. check device manager of pc it will show port and comt device 2-3 mins after successfull qualcomm diag port driver installation.

Didn't had any random reboot stuff. I thought voltage fluctuations might have affected it. I had charged it at the Airport the same day the phone gave up. The QFIL software was not able to detect port even while pressing vol+ and vol- .Service Centre tells me its a PCB problem and are asking 3k for repair. Looks like a new phone is somewhere in the line for future.
