I downgraded my phone to lollipop so that I can unlock my bootloader then flashed twrp then downloaded the latest CM13 and I failed... Can someone help me with this... I want the CM... Im a noob and I want a step by step clear guide... To all expert out there pls do help
UPDATE: This is now unneeded because threr is a faster way ro unlock bootloader on official MM here, he updated for official MM
Hi, I discovered an unlock method for official MM!! This maybe long but's it totally safe
You need:
Adb and fastboot environment ready PC
LP RAW File
Android 6.0 Beta Unlock tool
Android 5.0 One-Click Unlock tool
First version of beta MM (Z00A) (Z008)
Official MM zip (find it on Asus site)
Thanks to all people upload these links
Just do the following:
Flash the lastest LP via AFT (using raw file given above), wipe all data. If you already on MM, you have to downgrade
Unlock your bootloader using 1 click tool given above
Boot to stock recovery and sideload the first version of beta MM
Unlock the bootloader using MM beta unlock tool above
Boot to stock recovery
Two case here:
Case 1: You can't boot stock recovery
Normally boot your phone (to Android)
Setup it as a new phone
If it shows there is a new firmware, don't update!!!
Enable Developer options, then enable usb debugging
Copy the official MM zip to external sd card
Open command prompt, run adb reboot recovery, accept the adb permission if prompted
After it boots to recovery, select Apply update from SD, then choose the zip file you've copied before
Wait for it to update, it may stuck at flashing splashcreen, don't worry, it's trolling you, may be Asus forgot to update the script
Goto step 7
Case 2: You can boot stock recovery
Sideload the official MM zip (adb sideload <filename>.zip)
Goto step 7
7. Flash this TWRP (fastboot flash recovery <twrp>.img)
8. Root your phone using this method
9. Reboot, if it shows "Your phone has failed verification bla bla..", then you've success. It may reset loop like note 7 in the first time start, don't worry.
9. Enjoy :highfive:
Note: If you're facing with battery problems on MM, factory reset it in Settings > Backup and Reset > Factory Reset > Erase everything
Successfully on my ZE550ML
The warning screen is normal so don't worry and there is no way to fix it for now

Yes, BL will be relocked once you upgrade to MM.
If you want to unlock MM BL(6.0), refer to this thread.
Or you can downgrade to Lollipop referring to this thread. Then your BL(5.0) is unlocked.
Upgrade to MM
Hello folks!
2 week before MM was released i'ved opted to unlock my ZE551ML BL and therefore install twrp and a MM custom ROM..
so here´s the thing i stayed with the ROM for about 3 weeks and honestly..it works very well..but when i knew that 6.0 official was coming out i decided to go back to stock..i did it following manny tuturials avaliable for me to get my BL Re-Locked..but unsuccessfully..so i followed mr_gourav2000 tuturial (http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/development/stock-rom-ul-z00a-ww-2-20-40-168-t3354526) and reverted to the WW_Z00A-2.20.40.183-to-2.20.40.184 (hopefully i can get the sshot in this post) version...since my BL is unlocked i can´t get no updates..my question is:
Is there anyway to go to MM 6.0 by ASUS with the current status of my phone?
is there anything i can do to revert this??
Cheers to everyone

Just download the update package and rename it to mofd_sdupdate.zip, copy it to internal storage. Then reboot to stock recovery, the update will automatically start. This should work if you have lastest stock recovery

Have you downloaded the correct build? There are build for MM bootloader, if you flash the normal builds, it will fail and reboot to recovery again. Gapps is the same for all builds
After you install that special build, do not update to newer nightlies, it will fail. For updates, check the link i give you and see if there is a new MMBL build.
About that, here is the post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68542370&postcount=8551

Run the script again (i gave you in above post). Download the CM13 in that link, not in the OP of CM13 thread. Flash that CM13 and Gapps (Gapps is universal for MMBL and LPBL).
May be you have corrupt download, I'm currently running CM13 on MMBL

how u unlocked bootloader
Hi all, I somehow borked my Z00T and it's stuck on ASUS logo spinner now.
ZE551KL, OTA MM upgrade which was working..
bootloader not unlocked (can't use ASUS Unlock current version w/MM)
(I tried to do a downgrade to Lollipop, didn't take as recovery rejected a downgrade. Then, in my lack of sleep, I tried isntalling SuperSU via TWRP and I think that's where it all went wrong.)
I can't find a STOCK recovery.img for Z00T online (just Z00L)
TWRP for Z00T can't see my microSD for some reason so I can't sideload from card; ADB mode in TWRP isn't see by my Windows machine either, so I have no way to get a working ROM back on the phone!
(I've tried the CynanogenMod recovery, which will take a sideload but any ASUS *-user.zip image fails with "Error: whole-file signature not valid" or something like that.)
for working sideload reboot pc and no open any program
Recovered with CM13 Z00T recovery.img and complete reflash with CM13
Whew. I was really scared there for a bit. The only thing that seemed to work was going completely CyanogenMod 13 (recovery and latest stable install).
Luckily I like CM, and the ZenUI Launcher and apps were backed up with all my other apps and re-installed reasonably well it appears.
[Edit: also thanks very much to the team maintaining Open GApps, I was able to install GApps CM13 for Android 6.0 smoothly after a factory reset of CM13 post-install.]
Big lessons I learned:
* DO NOT try to downgrade from Marshmallow to Lollipop on Zenfone 2 Laser, and definitey DO NOT install SuperSU v2.46 while on Marshmallow.
* Research further than I did before trying a downgrade, upgrade, or Unlock -- if the Unlock isn't for your EXACT stock ROM version it won't work.
* Also don't overwrite stock recovery.img via fastboot, as no one seems to have a real ZE551KL stock recovery.img for download ou there. Only switch to a new recovery loader when once you're SURE you're ready to go permanently down the road with an alternate distro like CyanogenMod.
* Finally, TWRP 3.0.2.x for this phone seems to have sketchy ADB/USB support, at least on Win7 x64, as I wasn't able to use it to successfully connect for adb sideload attempts at all.
I'd still like to understand exactly what the failure messages mean when trying to sideload other ASUS UL-Z00T*-user.zip images ("Failed whole-file signature" or whatever that was)... I don't understand the signing process of vendor-provided ZIPs: why would the CM13 recovery flash its own CM13 release but refuse any others (and TWRP for that matter)? Do different release distributions have their own certs that have to match what the recovery.img expects, or ??
Has someone the stock recovery for ze551kl z00T 21.40.1220.1615 ?

I will recommend you to first upgrade your Android version to lollipop with latest firmware version ww-3.24.40.87 .
After upgrading, root your device and after that unlock your bootloader.
For rooting method, search in Asus zenfone 5 forum.
And for unlocking bootloader you can visit this link below-
https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-5/general/guide-how-to-unlock-bootloader-safely-t3562640
After unlocking bootloader you need to flash the TWRP Recovery. You can unlock bootloader and install twrp together in just one click. For that just visit the above link provided.
Now I'm assuming that you have rooted your phone and also your bootloader is unlocked and latest twrp is installed. So now head over to "Android development" forum of zenfone 5 and search for Resurrection Remix 5.8.2 by tank0412. This ROM is stable and also the developer is providing weekly updates.
I hope that this will help you out.

Yes. T00F and T00J both are same.
Just download it from official Asus website.
Just remember your SKU which is ww, tw, or cn.
To check your SKU, go to settings - about phone - and there check which firmware you have officially.
If you have WW firmware then you have to download ww firmware from the Asus website.
Eg. WW > WW
TW > TW
CN > CN

If your phone is rooted and you have successfully unlocked the bootloader with TWRP installed then now you are ready to install the custom nougat ROM. No need to upgrade your android version with stock firmware. Just proceed forward and follow what I'm saying -

Visit the above link and download the RR ROM.
After downloading the RR ROM, now you have to download the GApps Pico 7.1 x86
Click here to download GApps
Put the downloaded ROM zip file and GApps zip file in your external memory card.
Now steps for flashing the ROM -
1. Reboot to recovery.
2. Go to Wipe section - Advanced Wipe, and then select the cache, dalvik cache, system, data, internal.
After selecting the above, now swipe to wipe.
3. After wiping, go back to wipe section again and tap on "Format Data", and type "yes" and press ok.
4. After formatting completed, go back to main screen and then go to Install section, and locate the ROM zip file. Select it and swipe to flash.

I would like to share my experience while install RR on Zenfone 5.
I wiped as per the instructions.
When install RR file, I got following error:

Error flashing zip.
Another information is that recovery is Pinaslang version 2.8.6.0.
I think recovery based on TWRP.
I need quick help to overcome the trouble situation.

You cannot flash nougat ROMs with twrp 2.8.6 ,.... As you will end up with several errors so better switch to latest twrp I.e twrp 3.0 xx versions by xanwar . after that you can follow juyels method of flashing the ROM .
Download the twrp version from below link .
1:If you downloading zip file then flash through your old recovery and reboot to recovery .
2: if you downloaded .IMG file then flash through fastboot using the below code
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <filename>.img
Link for latest twrp : here
Dear Friends,
Finally, I could successfully installed RR.
Your suggestions are very timely and helpful.
After installation of TWRP 3, RR installed without any problem.
Thank you again, brothers.

Hello,
My device is an Asus Zenfone 3 ZE552KL with TWRP 3.1.0.
I need the original stock recovery for ASUS_Z012D-WW-14.2020.1703.28 (Android N).
Is it possible to build it from the firmware?
Otherwise, where can I find it?
Thank you in advance for your help.
nobody can help me
Are you running on 1703.28 currently?
Do a TWRP backup and then dirty flash the stock image on top, it shouldn't change any data or settings but will replace recovery (happened to me when I updated from 1701).
I'm curious, why do you want to go back to stock recovery? I'll never go back, lol
Edit: if anyone with the stock 1703.28 firmware and root can run an adb shell and make a backup of it using " dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p59 of=/sdcard/recovery.bin" and upload it.
I am currently rooted and to install the latest firmware stock, I have to do it from stock recovery because it does not work from TWRP.
After that, I will reinstall TRWP
The stock recovery can be downloaded from asus site :
https://www.asus.com/fr/Phone/ZenFone-3-ZE552KL/HelpDesk_Download/
Or direct download link : (1.8 Gb)
http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZE552KL/UL-ASUS_Z012D-WW-14.2020.1703.28-user.zip
@olivierzx
This is the full firmware, but stock recovery is not available.
Unless you know a way to build it from the firmware.

You do not need stock recovery to install the stock rom.
Just edit the update script, see this
