Help Z00T stuck on bootloop - Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Help im stuck on bootloop i can get into fastboot and recovery but recovery automatically reboots. I read that there are other .img you need to fix it but i cant find any of them only boot.img.
Is there anything i can do or is it completely ****ed.
its unlocked not rooted bricked while trying. tried sideloading, tried running
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase system

whould writing it to an sd card work?

Still can't access fastboot while holding volume up + power button?

I can get into fastboot fine but after 1 min or so it reboots

Since you have unlocked BL flash latest twrp fast. Rename it something short so it will be easy to type

Okay i did that it got into the opening screen for twrp then it rebooted automatically.
FIXED: okay i tried again and it sdidnt reboot what would i do next?

nice that you can now reboot to recovery, all you have to do is flash a custom ROM and gapps. Were you on stock LL or MM ROM before you bootloop? Sorry with the late reply, Im busy with work. Quote my reply so I can receive notification.

I was on stock MM (Marshmellow). Thank you, you've been so much help.

You can flash CM13/14 base ROM without a problem since you were on stock MM. If you decided to wipe system in TWRP, manually power off first in TWRP, wait for the phone to turned off then reboot back to TWRP and flash your new ROM and GAPPS. Do not reboot to system if you wipe system cause you might lose your recovery.
Edit: I only do this when I also wipe Internal Storage.

[SOLVED]A500 Stuck on OS Load

Tired, Frustrated and Helpless I am at the moment.
My A500 was running OK with a Jelly Bean Rom( I forgot which one) with Skrilax_CZ's bootloader V8 and CWM v5.5.0.4.
I decided to try a different Jelly Bean Rom. Forgot to keep a CWM backup and my misery started.
Any rom and gaps will install fine. But after reboot it will be stuck on Cyogenmod or Android LOGO. I have tried several ROM. Exact same result.
This happened a few months back and after trying numerous times I gave up for that time.
But I need to get the tablet back to working.
So, since yesterday I have been trying my best to get this one to work.
Started with "[A500 & A501] Android 4.4.4 (OmniROM unofficial)".
According the installation note for that rom, I installed CWM 6.0.4.5 on secboot following the "[Recovery]CWM 6.0.4.5[UPDATED WITH INSTRUCTIONS][25/12/2013]" process.
Same exact situation. ROM will install then after reboot it will be stuck on OS load.
Tried with a few other older rom such as CM10-FLEX_V6Supercharged_Rev3.4. Same issue.
I even, Installed TWRP recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-a500 on secboot. Same Issue.
Then, Updated Skrilax_CZ's bootloader V8 to Skrilax_CZ's bootloader V9. Same Issue.
Weird thing is now when I go to "CWM 6.0.4.5" from "Skrilax_CZ's bootloader V9", CWM doesn't really let me do any task. Any menu I enter on CWM 6.0.4.5 it freezes and then reboots the tablet. But initially when I first installed CWM 6.0.4.5 on secboot it worked for the first few times.
I am a noob in this. I do not want to try anything else myself as I think I will eventually brick the device and there will be no coming back.
I have searched on XDA for this issue. Many other people have similar issue with a500 but I couldn't find any situation same as mine.
Need help from you awesome people.
I do not want to give up on this tablet. But without your HELP I am lost.
Please HELP.
Need help on this please.

Have you tried wiping the device in fastboot mode? If not, try that!
The partitions to wipe are system, data and cache. The command is "fastboot erase cache".

tried that. same issue.
it keeps circling on cyanogenMOD logo.
Apologies for reply late. I was not well and could not attend to you reply.
anything else i can try?
Please help.
Hey Bro,
I had exactly the same issue. What I did to solve it, was to delete all folders manually. Boot to recovery and choose "mounts and storage". Unmount everything and then format every folder. Then Wipe everything again. Reboot and flash the image with recovery. Then everything should work fine.
Same here
I have had exactly the same issue and haven't yet found a decent solution.
Mine was stuck on the Acer logo with the stock ICS ROM.
I found my CPUID and SBK, the linux way.
I tried everything you tried, managed to have bootloader V9 installed, TWRP as a recovery (Thor's version), CWM as secboot.
I was able to wipe and flash with no errors, but it would always stuck on the Acer logo. No custom ROM would ever boot.
I will definitely try Unimatrix-zero's solution and tell you guys if it worked for me.
So far, the only thing that worked for me was to use an EUUs package (GEN1) to get back to stock HC 3.01.
As you may guess, there are no more OTA updates via wifi in 2014.
So I downloaded several update packages and so far I only managed to update to HC 3.2. I haven't yet found a working package for stock ICS.
Anyway, if Unimatrix-zero's workaround actually works, a custom ICS ROM will do the trick for me.

Significant result but did not resolve the issue.
As you have mentioned, I have wiped off everything that i can find in the recovery menu.
rebooted after that to recovery and for the first time I could go to TWRP 2.7.
tried to install a custom rom. but same issue. Either it reboots when I tried omni rom 4.4.4 on the "booting from primary" menu or the CM blue circle going on forever, when I tried with a CM 10.1 rom.
and just now after trying the cm 10.1 rom it went back to the way it was before. now the TWRP 2.7 will just keep on blinking on the screen .
Help bro...help....
You can try the following fastboot commands to wipe your device:
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase data
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
And then flash the rom.

Lost recovery, cant boot, only fastboot

Guys... when i tried to flash oos 3.0 on my op2 through twrp, i first wiped the data to install new rom, then install oos 3.0, it failed. I then flashed the recovery i downloaded from the thread, then restart the recovery
I cant boot into the recovery.
System can't boot
Is it called "brick"?
So i tried to flash stock recovery in pc by command, but it says "remote: device is locked. cannot flash images". any solution to this problem?
I can boot into fastboot mode
You need to run the phone in Qualcomm mode on a PC and run the recovery tool to fix you bootloader.
I did the same and it was a royal ball ache trying to find out how to fix it
Don't do what rosswaa said
Why not?
What you should do is boot your phone into fastboot mode, connect it to your pc. Flash this modified TWRP recovery img to your phone https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24459283995297945. After that you have to flash this modified SuperSU (through the new recovery) https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24459283995297946.
The normal recovery doesn't work in OOS 3.0 (just like in HOS) and it's the SuperSU that gives you the soft brick. A dirty flash of the modified SuperSU should fix it.
I also had your problem and I did what rosswaa said which shouldn't be necessary (I lost all my data and backups).
I didn't lose anything, but I tried doing what you said and my bootloader was screwed so wouldn't take a flashed recovery or anything (yes the modified one)
Wish I hadnt been so excited and just flashed but all sorted now
Hmm okay, if it doesn't work with flashing the new recovery img then do what rosswaa said and after that follow this post https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/installation-instructions-faqs-oxygenos-3-0-0.439108/
Obviously try what green says first, if it works then happy days
first i am really glad that someone give some advices on me. But since i am a noob, how can i flash twrp in fastboot mode? using command? "fastboot flash recovery xxx.img"? thx

Help help help with a hard bricked 6P

Hello guys,
I had my phone rooted with latest twrp. I flashed stock+ rom with Franco Kernel 25r and the A.R.I.S.E file for better sound. I've done the same set up minus the ARISE file and never had an issue.
well to my luck it kept bootlooping and I wasn't able to get back into my custom recovery. When I got home and got my hands on a pc I did a factory reset by manually flashing stock google img . I even used a couple tools since I ran out of ideas and still no luck.
I'm able to do anything through fastboot but I can't seem to get into my recovery at all.
Any ideas or tips of where I should go next?
Not a Hardbrick
As long as you can get to the bootloader mode, you haven't hard bricked your device. Hardbricking is a point where you cant boot your device and in to bootloader so there is no way to flash your device to a useable state.
Now as you can boot to the bootloader, just fastboot boot twrp.img and if you have a factory image zip, copy it in your device internal storage and flash it. Its that simple, provided you are already using an unencrypted boot.img in your current setup. Or else the next step is to flash an decrypted boot.img(you will loose all your userdata and internal storage data.). There are ways to mount the the encrypted filesystem if you are using a pin or password combo with your fingerprint. But without it its a bit more trickier so just for ease and if you dont have any inseparable data in your device now just flash a decrypted boot.img and then you can easily mount your internal storage to your pc and copy the factory image and the rest you already know..
At this point, I'd recommend a full reset.
Flash all the images in the latest Android M factory image (don't flash DP5 or similar N based ROMs): Recovery, Boot, System, Bootloader, Radio, everything.
Once you get stabilized and back into a working phone, then start rooting and messing around with kernels and what not.
To be completely honest, I've flashed nearly every ROM for the 6p, as well as my other Nexus devices, Galaxy phones, Sony phones, and no-name brands and none of those ultra modified kernels did any noticeable change. I tried the F2FS, NTFS, etc file system changes, tweaks to the governors and IO's, all of that, and found the stock kernel was the best. If a kernel with a different IO Scheduler worked even 10% better than the current implementation, and was just as stable, don't you think the Google/Android Engineers would've pushed that to live?
Currently running Pure Nexus July 23rd Update, everything stock that comes with it, Systemless Root/XPosed, and Viper4Android and have never had a performance or stability issue. I'd recommend you do the same.

First of all thank you for the response.
I've tried flashing the most current twrp and it seems to go through fine on fast boot but when I actually try to get into recovery from the device it will boot loop and just keep doing that.
How can I get into the phones storage through fastboot?
Where can I get the factory zip?
it feels as if everything seems to go good through fastboot but when I actually try to boot the phone nothing seems to work.

Thanks for the reply.
I've done the manual flashing already and flashed everything single item the most current factory image. Everything seemed to have gone through okay but when I rebooted the phone it was back to 0.
I'm actually considering getting rid of the phone now since it is my daily =/
Format each partition before flashing.
fastboot format <partition>
wait until it's done, then
fastboot flash <partition> <image>
Some partitions can't be formatted, which there are ways around, but try this first.
Just get to bootloader mode and try booting the twrp.img
fastboot boot twrp.img
From the twrp ui, go to advanced wipe and format your storage.
To mount the internal storage on your PC, enable mtp from twrp screen.
If U are using a decrypted boot.img, it will easily mount ur internal storage. Or try flashing a decrypted boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then try the above again..

I flashed the twrp.img and it went through successfully at least on the computer it did but when the phone actually tries to get into recovery (twrp) it will start to boot loop and keep on doing that. I tried both an encrypted and decrypted boot img but it still made no difference.
I'm really going crazy over this

You need to explain more on what you actually tried here.
Just download the latest factory image and try to flash the latest bootloader using fastboot.
Then boot to the bootloader and try formating the device. Not wiping
Then you have to
fastboot boot twrp.img
I believe you have only tried wiping not formating. I faced similar issue before. But once I flashed a decrypted boot.img, it cleared the user data and then I was able to get to twrp.
Maybe your twrp img is corrupted if this didn't work.

i just flashed the latest bootloader from the most recent factory image and i did the command format user data and then tried the fastboot boot twrp and the phone will then try to get into recovery, the google logo comes up lasts a couple seconds and boot loops all over to where is says my phone cant be check for corruption
By now i should have been able to get into recovery and it wont go through

download a factory image and run the flash all file...... it should reboot your phone after 5 minutes and the issue should be resolved.. a hard brick would be a device that does nothing.... in this case i believe that you just didnt do something right.
Then download the latest factory image and extract it
fastboot flash radio.img
fastboot flash bootloader.img
& do a fastboot update the rest archive file as it is
This will flash the rom via fastboot& U don't have to rely on TWRP or CWM

I was really really hoping this would help. I erase/formated everything before flashing anything. I then ran the flash-all file and it took a couple of minutes and it said finished on the command box and my phone restarted and went into the white google logo and rebooted again with a bootloop. I waited around 15 minutes hoping it would start but it didn't.
It honestly feels as if the phone is not processing the full commands but on the pc it seems to go through successfully
is there a way to force an install of a rom and see if maybe a dirty flash over the stock one will allow it to start up?

Just unzip the factory image and there U can see the flash shell script files too. Open them in a text editor & U could see the exact command. In a factory img, they also do the same thing via script files. Flashing the radio & bootloader & updating the rest archive
so this is what I've done
I've manually flashed every file needed for the factory image from google.
I also tried wugfresh tool kit which is great but didn't help me much. I flashed stock recovery and treid to boot into to and nothing. I flashed a customer recovery and nothing.
It always does the same thing
the screen that says my phone can't be checked for corruption and then the google sign comes up stays on for a couple seconds and then it bootloops to the can't be checked for corruption.
I try to get into recovery using fastboot commands and the phone does the same exact thing.
I was even able to lock and relock the bootloader and I was able to successfully flash everything at least that is what it showed on the computer
so ive read almost every thread that had to do with bricking and I feel like an expert now but im starting to think it is done =/

Hey there. First off make sure to unlock again your bootloader. Then you may follow post # 10 of @Heisenberg 's flashing guide for our device.
First images to flash would be bootloader and radio. First flash bootloader, then make sure to issue the command adb reboot-bootloader. Then afterwards once the phone has rebooted back to bootloader, flash radio, then again do the adb reboot-bootloader again.
Once the phone is again back to bootloader flash the rest of the images except userdata. For the boot.img and recovery.img, flash the stock ones-don't use the decrypted boot.img and don't flash the twrp.img yet. Once all necessary images have been flashed issue the reboot-booloater command one more time, then on the bootloader screen choose the reboot option. Wait anywhere from 3-10 minutes for the phone to load. Let us know how it goes for you.

fastboot flash bootloader C:\angler\images\bootloader-angler-angler-xx.xx.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio C:\angler\images\radio-angler-angler-xx.xx.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash cache C:\angler\images\cache.img
fastboot flash recovery C:\angler\images\recovery.img
fastboot flash system C:\angler\images\system.img
fastboot flash vendor C:\angler\images\vendor.img
It does the same exact thing it will try and restart the phone, the message that says it can't be checked for corruption the google logo comes up and it repeats it self non stop.
This is what doesn't make sense to me.
This is the file that I had flashed through twrp when it was working fine

This is weird. What version of the stock factory images did you flash? I've been using leviticus 1.3 since it came out and when i was still on stock rom. I switched over to cm builds and have been flashing every nightly since the 7/24th build, and in the process repeatesly reflashing the aound mod along, and i've had zero issues with the phone booting afterwards.

[ZE551KL] Stuck in bootloop, need complete rebuild. Help!

OK, 3 days ago I rebooted my ZE551KL and it went into a bootloop. I was completely 100% stock. No root. Locked bootloader. Spent the better part of the weekend trying to troubleshoot it, and I have made almost zero progress.
I've tried a bunch of things, but here is my current status.
Can get into fastboot mode no problem.
POWER + DOWN VOL gets me into stock recovery, but at some point I flashed an older version. I tried flashing TWRP, but after install could never seem to get into it (is that because I'm unrooted and locked?)
Current recovery version: Android system recovery <3e> LRX22G.WW_user_1.16.40.763_20151201
I've tried flashing to a couple different firmware versions from the ASUS website both via ADB and via the SD Card.
Current firmware: UL-z00T-WW-1.17.40.1531-user.zip
Still in bootloop.
Any advice on rebuilding this thing from scratch? I dont care whether I just get stock back, or if I need to root/unlock, install TWRP and a custom ROM. Dont care, just want a functioing phone!
Thanks in advance.

I dont get it. Did you factory reset your phone? With stock rom, factory work most of the time.
You said that you tried flashing TWRP. If you see successfull message after flash, type "fastboot reboot" and hold volume down button right after hit Enter. If you did right, you can get into twrp, then choses Wipe > format, it more powerfull than factory reset.

1. Factory reset from within the phone's OS? No, I cant get that far. Just constant bootloop on ASUS logo.
2. I've used the fastboot erase command to wipe everything, and used the wipe data/factory reset option in the stock recovery. Still bootloop.
3. I've tried flashing TWRP 3.0.0.0 and the newest version of TWRP. I hold down the VOL DOWN key before hitting enter on "fastboot reboot"; it just goes into a faster bootloop, like every half-second. When I release the VOL DOWN key, it goes into the same, slower original bootloop.
ACFH said:
Ok. You can format through fastboot
Code:
fastboot format userdata
fastboot format cache
If it still stuck in bootloop, try reflash boot and recovery, fastboot wipe system. Then copy update.zip to sdcard. Boot into recovery > install update from external sd.

Awesome. I'll give that a try and report the results.
I just downloaded the .img with the same date as my recovery version from here. https://asus.kremowka.xyz/categories/show/2
Its been hung at "Verifying update package...." for about 10 mins now. Once this is finished (and probably fails ); I'll give your format commands a try.

install UL-z00T-WW-1.17.40.1531-user.zip from SD card.''
Installation successful.
Reboot.
In a bootloop that shows ASUS logo for 10-15 seconds, flashes a blue screen really quick, then reboots.
What can I try next?

stuck in bootloop after Magisk Module disable

Can someone please help? I tried a Magisk Module, which was working, then disabled it in Magisk Manager and did a reboot. Now I'm stuck in a bootloop.
I tried sideloading this to remove the module: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-tool-magisk-manager-recovery-mode-t3693165
But it says: "(!) Magisk not installed or version not supported"
I'm on Magisk 17.3, TWRP by blu.spark and on stock ROM 9.0.5.
Please help!
Are you able to get into fastboot? If so, I think if you were to just fastboot flash the stock boot.img it would fix your issue by removing magisk. I think it would keep your data as well.
If that doesn't work just fastboot flash the stock 9.0.5 images.
Additionally, if you can boot into TWRP and have a nandroid on hand go ahead and just flash your backup in recovery.
Unfortunately flashing the boot.img does not work. Still bootlooping. I've already flashed the stock boot, recovery and system.
If that's the case I would just reflash the stock images.
Try to flash boot_a and boot_b with fastboot:
fastboot flash boot_a stockboot.img
fastboot flash boot_b stockboot.img
Being "stockboot.img" your stock boot image, then reboot and try if it works.

I tried with this one as stock img, no luck here :/
Boot a, boot in recovery
boot b is a bootloop
Thanks guys, but nothing helped. I think I'll do the full wipe now. Need a working phone tomorrow and time is running. I have a OnePlus Switch Backup, so not everything is lost.

If you're able to boot to recovery, maybe you should consider wipe all system settings, cache and data...
It's annoying to start over again, but doing that just after flashing both boot_a and boot_b partitions, should get rid of Magisk and all his settings.

the boot was a bit long but indeed it worked,
I need to learn a bit more about A and B partition, does that wipe clear A and B partition or only one ?
how did you access recovery after bootloop? I’m in a similar situation.

Press and hold the vol. down and the power buttons until the phone vibrates or turn on.
bootloop
Hi All...I had a same issue.. after trying root, magisk, i installed the pixel3lsk module...but when i tried to uninstall and reboot, went to bootloop
then I kept trying the fastboot pressing both volume and power keys... then through fastboot did the above 2 commands into both partitions..
then still stuck... then wiped cache and reboot.. voila...now back to stock rom...
so all ended well... and decided against rooting for ever..hahah

Use this to uninstall magisk modules.
I found that reading this article:

Last but efficient solution: flash official stock rom from twrp without factory wipe, it will fix broken files and keep your data
Had this exact issue yesterday after uninstalling "Pix3lify". In order to fix it, I had to used adb and check for devices. Volume up and power would not turn off the device, but adb could reboot into twrp where a full data reset fixed the phone.
Okay. I am just in a bootloop now after disabling Pix3liify. So its a dead end, I'm going to wipe data
after over 20 hours' fighting , I swipe the factory reset button~now ,it's OK~~~
