Hi XDA Community,
I'm in a bit of a pickle. Yesterday my Zenfone started to bootloop and I tried to reset to fabric settings in bootmode but it didn't do anything. Afterwards I put the stockrom (Lollipop) and the latest rom (Marshmallow) and installed them. No errors, but it is stuck in bootloop and I can only enter fastboot mode now and it gets stuck there.
Tried Intel SoC solution, no results and also QFil but it isn't shown under ports.
How can I unbrick it?
Thank you very much.
The way I did it
If you install the latest version of twrp it should automatically boot correctly as if nothing happened. it's strange, but every brick I have had has been fixed that way.

Tried it.
This is the error that it gives me.
g:\adb and recovery>fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1-0-Z00T.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.944s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: unlock device to use this command)
finished. total time: 0.953s
So, I finally managed to install the latest version of TWRP and SuperSU (don't know which version, tried two of them and thee TWRP install and finally one of the stuck).
I tried back2stock with 1.14 and 1.17 firmware, but the same problem happened. Bootloop and bootloop, on and on and on. The curious thing is that I didn't encounter any error message during installations so what could be the problem. Is there a log I can see to disover what could be the solution.
Thank you.

This happens when you flash wrong version. You must be using the twrp for KK, while MIUI is LP.
So try this one

Extract "boot.img" from the root of MIUI rom zip and flash that with "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
Then flash the twrp for lollipop
Otherwise, you'll need to flash the firmware through QFIL Downloader

It seems you successfully flashed the twrp recovery...............
If your recovery is right i.e.according to your previous os
Then just u need to enter into recovery by pressing 3 buttons at the same time....
if not worked then flash another twrp version....

My friend,this is no hard brick.sometimes this error happens because because your recovery.img file is corrupted.Check that your recovery.img is found in the cmd folder...And use command 'fastboot boot recovery.img' << this one surely will work.Otherwise,please follow my own thread where I faced an identical problem..>>http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-a6000/help/problem-flashing-rom-soft-brick-t3353665 Oh,and calm down, not that serious of a problem,you wont have to go to the dreaded service center.

When you can't even enter to bootloader (or fastboot), that situation is called hard brick. The problem you are facing is due to the wrong recovery version. Try this latest twrp 3.0.2 by sevenmax.
And yah, if "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" doesn't work, then try "fastboot boot recovery.img"

This method alsi not gud. Try this method.
https://boycracked.com/2016/02/12/e...rmware-any-android-devices-via-fastboot-mode/
I did it & saved from hardbrick. Just do whatever files u have. But dont forget ti erase boot. Erase boot then flash boot* this is main step. Then flash twrp and instll any backup or new rom.
Follow these instruction.... main files are in stock firmware file. Recovery alone flash ur own custom recovery of ur choice

Bhai, This method is for soft- bricked device, when you can enter bootloader.
In case of hard brick you can' t even enter in bootloader, and can't run these commands. The link I posted is for hard bricked devices.
And, you don't actually need to go through these complicated steps in case of soft brick.
Just flash any recovery through bootloader and then flash any ROM. You don't need to extract and flash each file separately.
Hello guys.
Today I wanted to go back to MM, since I had some apps that didn't work on N.
I did this my unsigning my 6P from the Beta program, and then got the OTA to return to MM.
When I rebooted, I got the well-known 'Error' screen with a droid laying on it's back.
I tried fastboot flashing the 6.0.1 mtc19v factory image, but it gave me this result:
Code:
error: cannot load 'bootloader-angler-angler-03.51.img'
rebooting into bootloader...
OKAY [ 0.013s]
finished. total time: 0.013s
error: cannot load 'radio-angler-angler-03.61.img'
rebooting into bootloader...
OKAY [ 0.014s]
finished. total time: 0.014s
W/ (64495): Unable to open 'image-angler-mtc19v.zip': No such file or directory
error: failed to open zip file 'image-angler-mtc19v.zip': I/O Error
I also tried flashing TWRP trough fastboot, but for some reason, it hangs at the TWRP start-up screen.
Can someone tell me what's the best way to workaround this problem? I'm quite skilled at fastboot, adb, recovery and flashing all together, so I just need to know what I overlooked.
UPDATE: Flashing TWRP was possible after flashing a modified boot.img. But now I constantly get a ERROR: 7 when trying to flash or sideload the factory image...
UPDATE2: Seems it's only a STOCK problem. Dirty Unicorns v10.3 flashed normally.

Maybe installing twrp from adb again, download Oxygen OS full rom, transfer it to your phone and flash it?

Bricking phone with an unlocked BL is kind of hard.
Even if you wipe the device, you should be able to recover by writing the correct files.
The only way I know of killing a phone like this, is if you can't get into the bootloader to do fastboot.
Hi all, I have a Sony Xperia X Compact which still worked perfectly fine.
Today I tried to install Lineage OS but had trouble making it work properly - see the thread.
I managed once to successfully install TWRP but then it got removed during the formatting. I tried many times to reinstall it but it didn't work:
$fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.7.img Sending 'recovery' (27424 KB)
OKAY [ 0.863s] Writing 'recovery'
OKAY [ 0.340s] Finished. Total time: 1.214s
$ fastboot getvar recovery
recovery:
Finished. Total time: 0.002s
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Strange... So instead, I boot to recovery through the fastboot. It always worked, I've done it 10+ times today
fastboot boot twrp-3.7.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But after my last install of Lineage OS, I can't boot anymore to TWRP and get stuck on a black screen. I tried other versions of TWRP and it's the same result.
Now I have
- a buggy Lineage OS which crashes while accepting the Google terms, which means I cannot activate the debugger mode and cannot use adb
- a buggy TWRP which doesn't load
-----
Solution: install the Sony flash tool and flash the original firmware.
