CM 13.1 failed in Zenfone 5 - Zenfone 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i'm just a beginner in custom roms, so i've tried to install CM 13.1 in my zenfone 5 running 5.0 Lollipop version. The installation consists in unlocking bootloader by Windows 10 cmd (worked OK) and giving a command to a new boot (worked well too). But when i tried to install the CM 13.1 iso file the following message appears:
FAILED (remote: flash_cmds error!)
I suspect that the iso CM was corrupted in downloading, so the installation was not succeed. Or could be another reasons for the failure? I tried at least a hundred times the command to install the rom archive :crying:
I'm now trying to reset factory my fone, hope that's works ok.

OMG!
did u read instruction b4 proceed flashing ROM ?
1: u need to unlock bootloader first
2: flash latest TWRP via fastboot
3: use TWRP backup ur current ROM
4:flash ur CM13 via TWRP
TWRP sometimes unable to flash
reboot TWRP flash again it should works!
wish u good luck !

No mm rom will work unless u first upgrade the default cyanogen software from cm11 to cm12.1 since the bootloader of cm11 is 32bit and cm12.1 is 64bit and all roms mostly are 64bit so they wont boot
So follow the above steps you mentioned the same way but first flash cm12.1 fastboot images and boot then you will be able to flash any rom

Hearty thanks for your reply ,cuz i spent more than 5 nights on this but couldnt make it ,now I got clarity about the problem I'll try to implement what you said but how can I update to 12.1 n after that how to root and install twrp or cwm and finally thanks thanks thanks a lot for ur reply
I tried with several KitKat roms
I also tried to install several ROMs, which are based on CM 11, but only 2/20 ROMs have worked.
Rest 18 are not working, and they get stuck up at the 2nd boot screen.
How can I resolve this problem?

1) download cyanogen os 12.1 fastboot images from here http://builds.cyngn.com/factory/tomato/cm-12.1-YOG4PAS3JM-tomato-signed-fastboot.zip
2) download flashing tools from here https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B48lBYmwzkD5cVA1dVFvU0plTW8/view?usp=sharing
3) extract files of both zip files in single folder
4)connect your phone in fastboot mode and check all drivers are installed
5) now open flash-all.bat and let it run
6) if everything went fine then you are done (first boot may take 20 mins after flashing )
7) use this for more http://forum.xda-developers.com/yureka/development/windows-yuware2013266073-t3193757

Unofficial way to unlock bootloader of MAX ZC550kl without the app ?

Hello everyone
My phone suddenly went into a boot look after multiple process getting stopped.
After that its not booting.
Now it shows the unable to mount E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument and i haven't unlocked the boot loader.
please help me with the same.
i have tried wipe cache partition , system reset everything,
If I understand correctly you can't use the official bootloader unlock app because your phone isn't booting android. I'm guessing your recovery is also not working or you would just factory reset the device and boot into android to unlock the bootloader.
I don't know of any unofficial way to unlock the bootloader so if I were you i'd just do it the official way.
1. Download the raw firmware for your device as well as the ASUS Flash Tool.
2. Boot your phone into fastboot and flash it with AFT.
3. Boot your phone into android if you can. If not, at lease your recovery should be working now. Download the latest device firmware form the ASUS website and flash it using the recovery menu of your device. (power + vol down)
4. Boot your phone into android install the bootloader apk.
5. Open bootloader unlocker app to unlock the device (you need to be connected to the internet for this bit)
Raw firmware for your device can be difficult to find but this one worked for me https://ainotech.com/how-to-flash-fi...twrp-recovery/
I am looking for the unofficial method because the official method does not work now.

I am successful this way, Peetama flash official beta rom 6.0.1 raw. After successfully booting back to fastboot to flash twrp. Once done, immediately reboot into twrp. Flash the magisk if necessary. But I went straight to the custom rom viper os 3.1.1 and done.
For details You can read the article here TWRP WITHOUT UBL

You flashed the beta kernel and then flashed TWRP and then switched to custom rom right ?
Did that method from the given link worked for you ?
I flashed the beta rom and then when I booted into the system it said Decryption unsuccessful.. Please help me

Cannot install LineageOS from TWRP (bootloop, error 7, etc.)

Hello, I'm trying to install LineageOS on my Asus Zenfone Max Pro m1 (ZB602KL) but I'm stuck in TWRP and cannot install any OS.
(Sorry I cannot post proper external links as i am new on this forum)
I will try to explain what I did as clearly as possible (I was following the install page X00TD from the LineageOS website) :
1. Unlocking the bootloader
No problem here I guess, I just downloaded the from asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-Max-Pro-M1/HelpDesk_Download/ then
Code:
adb install
it then run the application from the device.
2. Installing a custom recovery using fastboot
This is where is start to be blurry for me. I download the TWRP from the link given by the LineageOS install page (androidfilehost.com/?fid=3700668719832241089) I can
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <recovery_filename>.img
without any problem but when I reboot into recovery I don't get TWRP and when try to
Code:
fastboot boot <recovery_filename>.img
I get something like this :
Code:
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 2.292s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
So I'm trying to get an other version of TWRP from the TWRP website but the Asus Zenfone Max Pro m1 is not listed in the devices section (twrp.me/Devices/Asus/). I finally found this reddit post reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/aiiw3f/flashing_twrp_on_linux_fastboot_doesnt_work/ , download this TWRP androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603879312 and flash it using
Code:
fastboot flash:raw boot <recovery_filename>.img
as recommended on the post and can finaly boot into TWRP.
3. Installing LineageOS from recovery
I "format data" and do an "advanced wipe" as indicated on the LineageOS install page, I get some error messages (encryption, etc.) so I reboot into recovery and try again and it seems to work. I try to sideload the last lineage build downloaded here download.lineageos.org/X00TD but I get this :
Code:
adb: sideload connection failed: closed
adb: trying pre-KitKat sideload method...
adb: pre-KitKat sideload connection failed: closed
so I decided to
Code:
adb push
it and install it via TWRP but I get an
Code:
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
. I found this reddit post reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/cfwnox/x00td_lineageos_16_firmware_error/. I downloaded the firmware from asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-Max-Pro-M1/HelpDesk_Download/ but I cannot install it from TWRP (error 7 again).
Then I found some link to a "PIE" firmware that I can install from TWRP after installing the "PIE" firmware I can finally install LineageOS but when I reboot I get some warning message saying : "the boot loaded is unlocked and software integrity..." after this I get the LineageOS loading animation (the right to left blue bubble) for 2 minutes then it reboot to TWRP.
Voila.
- I don't really understand the difference between the FIRMWARE (1.5 Gb) or the PIE FIRMWARE (60 Mb) or even the LineageOS file. I'm still trying to adb push some firmware or OS and install them but i'm affraid of making an irreversible mistake and "brick" the phone.
- I don't know if the problem come from my
Code:
fastboot flash:raw boot <recovery_filename>.img
TWRP install or from a bad TWRP file, or from the OS/firmware file.
So what should I do now? How do I clean this mess and install a working OS (LineageOS or even back to Asus/Android factory OS)?
Any help is appreciated, Thank you
uncheck TWRP boxes?
I found this post reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/dtnec5/infinite_loading_screen_after_fresh_installation/
and I simply unchecked the TWRP auto install boxes before reboot... and it seems to work for the moment.
The OS takes 7.8Gb, I don't know if it's a normal size or I messed something.

Fastboot Failed (data transfer failure(unknown error)

Hello and thanks for inteterest to help. (My phone Redmi 2 Prime)
So to the point, i have my phone installed custom ROM. And today when i try to reset factory, it stuck in the MI Logo (Show and then turned off). So i forgot to flashing the twrp again last time, so i left it without any recovery. The only way is repairing it with Fastboot and installing TWRP. So i start installing all driver and flashing. But, when i want to flash twrp to my phone, it keep showing me this
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
flashing 'recovery.img'
FAILED (Data Transfer Failure(unknown error)
DONE! 5.8 sec
But it doesnt installing any recovery. I have installing MiFlash driver. Is there any driver that i should install again? Or anything that i can do? Also my PC doesnt read my phone storage at all, it doesnt show in the explorer, but can read "my phone" and my phone model. And I'm using USB 2.0. I also have try USB 3.0 but it doesnt work too.
Any help would be appreciated. Sorry for the long post, eh?
Try to temporarily boot into recovery by this command
"fastboot boot recovery.img"
(If it boots to recovery then you can flash any zip)

Thank you for replying
So i've try it, but why its stuck at 'downloading boot.img' for 2 hours?
Can i download the boot.img manually? If yes, what should i download?
Can you share a photo of error.
Or you can try miflash to flash stock rom. Then you try to flash twrp. I suspect there would be something wrong with your recovery partition.(i also had similar problem while flashing different roms.)
Ok, so when i flash stock rom on miflash, at average 70%, it show me "fastboot.exe has stopped working" and show me error 0x80004005('Error flash system.img')
Why, godness? Is it because my laptop is only having 2GB Ram?
Or is there any ways to flash TWRP with fastboot without UBL?

Help! stuck post unlocking bootloader

So i was just following the instructions from this page https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/flox/install, was able to unlock the bootloader of my nexus 7 device. Now at this point i didnt know my device codename, i thought it was flox but i just noticed on the bootloader page it says deb. [Im a noob..guilty]
Now the 2nd step was no biggie either, i was able to flash twrp recovery, but somehow it was not working as i was keep getting error 1 and vendor invalid argument when i tried to flash the lineage 18.1 zip.
The recovery img i tried were
lineage-18.1-20211018-recovery-flox.img
twrp-3.4.0-0-deb.img
twrp-3.5.0_9-0-flox.img
twrp-3.5.2_9-0-flo.img
twrp-3.5.2_9-0-flo_followmsi.img
Now after flashing twrp recoveries i was getting the problem of not able to flash the LOS 18.1 rom file, plus if i would format the device and then try to reboot the device back to recovery i would get an error with android logo collapsed [check the image]
what am i doing wrong? plz help.
I sense its repartitioning process? also i am not sure if i did an EFS Persists back up.
so if someone can give a walkthrough. would be very greatful _/\_
thanks again
Was your device rooted? Start it in to recovery mode, go to "Mount". And see if you could chose system directory. If not, that means TWRP can't access system directory and will not be able to flash any custom ROM until you sort root permissions.
Edit: Sorry just now noticed that you can't get in to recovery mode anymore. Connect your device to computer and use Nexus Root Toolkit to flash TWRP recovery.
