I can't unlock bootloader, because I haven't access to system

Means you have a fully bricked device? Or you can get in stock recovery? If yes then try to boot it up in stock recovery and connect via adb.

Can you boot in sideload ( power and volume up) ? If yes flash the stock recovery and then flash the stock ROM

I have the same problem but i have bootloader unlocked and i can boot the twrp recovery please help me

2: Download the stock recovery from ---> here <---
2: Boot in fastboot mod using power on + volume up
3: Use fastboot flash recovery <PATH OF THE FILE> in adb to flash the stock recovery

Dude? I don't understand what are you saying! You don't go in twrp to flash the stock recovery. Copy the stock recovery to your adb folder in your computer ( where you have adb.exe ) Just turn of your phone then hold the power and volume up at the same time util you enter in fastboot mode the in adb use this: " fastboot flash stock-recovery-LL.222.img " After that reboot in recovery again and you should get the stock recovery, after that move the stock ROM to sd card and in recovery select " update from sdcard " or do it with sideload using " adb sideload UL-ASUS_Z00E-WW-13.10.7.1-user.zip "

my solution

sorry for my English.
I had the same problem. Startup screen locked and nothing else ( ZE500KL ).
I believe the problem to be using the unlock procedure with latest firmware version 13.10.7.1 .
I solved it by reinstalling before UL-ASUS_Z00E-WW-13.10.7.1-user.zip and then this file boot_13.10.6.16_patch.
(I can not post links . search it with google . if someone can post it to write to me in pvt . I give link)
everything from sd card with TWRP
although it is not the same version it solved the problem . Now everything perfect . If you want to reboot after you reset by zenfone and bring back to factory conditions .

The command from fastboot mode:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Dead PB2-650m

At last, unfortunately, i ended up with a dead/bricked Phab-2,
I was trying to flash recovery using fastboot, than i think i made a wrong flash with " fastboot flash boot ****.img" and than all gone.
now i am using spft to flash the stock firmware including preloader,
but an error occures as: S-SECURITY_SLA_FAIL (6004), MSP ERROR CODE: 0x00

and while flashing through the cracked miracle box, the phone automatically disconnects at 7% of

If your device still boots on fastboot then why not flash the correct boot or recovery image?
Is your device rooted?

Yep, flashing twrp was failed, than i tried
fastboot boot twrp.Img
And then stucked. Phone wasn't responding. Not even showing charging screen, neither it was vibrating while pressing buttons. It was all bricked. And flashing through spft too was showing error that i showed in the main post.
But now when i tried CTRL + ALT + S in spft, the trick worked,earlier i was trying it without CTRL + ALT + S, now my device has got a second life ?. Thank you so much.

After flashing miui hm3s global v9.5.1.0 stuck at MI logo

Hi everyone,
I was using Lineage is 15.1 and wanted to go back to miui so Flashed miui hm3s global v9.5.1.0 using twrp 3.0.2 and my Redmi 3s stuck at mi boot logo. I'm not able to boot into recovery also. Please help me out.

Use Power button+Vol Up and Vol Down...

I tried. It again boots and stucks at mi logo and not booting into recovery

Wait bro it take 20 mins to bootup

Try to boot into fastboot mode. Power on your phone when you see mi logo press vol down + power button for 10 sec it should boot into fastboot i have faced similar issues before. If it boots into fastboot either flash fastboot rom or flash twrp recovery.Then flash the miui rom via twrp also please disable dm-verify or flash lazy flasher before booting you are facing bootloop as you might have flashed stock miui without disabling dm-verify.
If you dont find disable dm-verify option in your version twrp use this https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120756570

As you mentioned I can boot to fastboot then flashed twrp but still no use. Not able to boot into twrp

Since you can boot into fastboot mode do the following
1. Flash twrp recovery " fastboot flash recovery <recovery-name>.img"
2. Boot into twrp from fastboot using "fastboot boot <recovery-name>.img"
Without quotes

Did you try from fastboot
fastboot boot twrp-3-x-x-x-land.img
Replace x with the version you have

Hold vol down + power. Enter bootloader mode. Flash twrp via pc. Flash lazyflasher. Done.

Don't reboot or disconnect your phone got to fastboot first flash the recovery using fastboot commands then use the fastboot commands to boot into recovery. If it still does not works you should try flashing miui fastboot rom using fastboot tool. And also please move this thread to discussion section

It should still be able to do force update or at least fail to do it. Make sure you have like >70% battery. Put UPDATE.APP in folder named dload in your sd-card and hold 'vol -, vol + and power.'

If your phone still boots in rescue mode, then I think the rom you've flashed is not compatible with your phone. As @up said, try to force an update.

I came up with the following solution:
1. Flash TWRP (fastboot flash recovery <path>.img)
2. Type fastboot reboot and then unplug the usb cable as fast as you can and hold vol+ to boot into twrp.
3. Wipe -> Swipe to Factory Reset
4. Wipe -> Format Data
5. Download B896_update.zip
6. Advanced -> ADB Sideload -> Swipe to Start Sideload
7. adb sideload <path_to_b896>.zip
8. Once the process is finished, reboot the phone.

What were you trying to do when problem started. It probably won't do anything at your state, but have you tried to hold vol+ in fastboot mode, normally it should go to eRecovery.(not that you can do anything with it, but would be good to know)
Also try things with usb cable plugged and un-plugged this really makes difference in some cases.

How exactly you did it? That should never be necessary or good idea to do.(Unless you are only wiping partitions in recovery.)

The rom you've flashed is not compatible with P8 lite 2015. Unfortunately, you've probably hardbricked your phone - there is no way to fix it.

Friends unlocked bootloader but unable to flash twrp or twrp. After giving command getting message in my phone " press any key to reboot". Please help.

Reboot to bootloader and in adb type
Fastboot flash recovery twrp.zip
Then turn your phn off.
Press and hold power button+volume down(not sure if up or down..try both)

Pwr + volume up = fastboot.
Pwr + vol down = recovery (stock / twrp).

Don't have twrp.zip file. Reyes twrp.img file with.zip command it also didn't work. Same msg continued "press any key to shutdown" in my phone.

I tried to install Asus Android ADB interface driver perhaps it not working properly.

Search for minimal adb and fastboot...download and install
Boot into fastboot then
Fastboot flash recovery (name of file with extension)
Your twrp file must be in the same folder as adb

You have to flash twrp in fastboot and then boot to twrp right after and flash it again

use another pc...

Are you running stock Android Pie version (16.2017.1903.050)?, I faced also this problem on stock Android Pie, What I did is downgrade it back to stock Oreo version (.340)

faced the issue untill I realized it was an issue regarding USB 3.0. The phone cannot support such a higher data speed. Use a USB 2.0 hub between your PC and your phone. That solved my problem.
For some reason connecting the phone to a usb 2.0 port in my laptop also did not solve the problem.
