Hello Everyone,
I am having lots of issues with rooting my ZC550KL. Used both the Asus Utility Unlocking tool (The APK does not install even though the unknown sources option has been enabled) and the Fastboot hangs while looking for a connected device. I have had used the Google USB Driver on Windows and the Phone is recognised, also tried this on Linux and still no luck..
Can someone help me with any other fresh Ideas on how I can get this sorted? I have had used the latest Update from Asus and updated to marshmallow. Also not sure if I can downgrade back to 5.0.2 which was the original Firmware this phone was shipped with.
Really appreciate any feedback.
After a few hours of digging, I've ended up flashing the stock Lollipop Image and now I am finally rooted..

Hello guys, I have a D802 phone and I was on Ressurection Remix 5.0 but since the official lollipop update was made avalaible, I wanted to return to stock and unroot so I could again use my warranty(for some weird reason they couldn't tell last time I took it there that it was rooted). Basically my problem is that every guide for going back to stock has the phone connected to the PC and use the flash tool. Well, I did that but when the mobile support tool opened for the upgrade, it couldn't find my phone. So I found a guide that showed you how to extract and rebuild a kdz file into a .zip. I tried that, used the UK d8023b rom ( A friend of mine who has a d802 as well, though unrooted, got the prompt to update through the pc suite and it updated his phone to d8023b, thats why i used that version), flashed it and I am now stuck in a bootloop. I have full access of recovery and adb but the phone isn't recognised by LG software. Can you please help me use my phone again? Going into download mode didn't work with the flash tool.
Alright here is my situation. I ran the latest OTA update on the stock rom and the phone started going into a boot loop. My problem is that I havent performed a recent backup and need to access some files on the phone. Developer mode is enabled, however I disabled USB debugging prior to running the update.
I've tried to flash the rom with sp flash tool but it's stop at red colour bar(100%) and than nothing happen.
Is there any solution to flash back my phone.
Thanks in advance.

Same problem with me on lenovo a7 50 (a3500HV) getting errors in SP flasing , If you have usb modem drivers of your phone than it can work, if you dont have my suggestion to you is go to service centre as they can help you on this. Even I created a thread on Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting requesting for usb modem drivers, so far no reply,Later I decided to visit service centre and for now the status is my phone had flashed and working good
SOLVED
I just got my phone back to normal after a few time tried to flash via spflash tool
Hi everyone,
I bought axon 7 (A2017) Chinese version from aliexpress. It's on B07 version, when trying to check OTA updates - it says no updates. If I understood correctly, that's because seller flashed gapps. No problems, I thought, I can do this myself... After 2 days of reading, downloading malware and even trying to register on chinese zte forums I give up.
-Tried simply putting update files on sd card and updating - no luck. Most probably because I can't find b08/b09 updates for straight A2017 (without U or G), have the last two only.
-Installed drivers, tried unlocking bootloader -failed. Adb works, detects device, however after rebooting to edl - adb does not detect any devices (enabled usb debugging and oem unlocking.
-tried flashing with MiFlash - errors "[2,07 COM6]:cannot receive hello packet,MiFlash is trying to reset status!"
-tried rebooting to edl manually (up/down+power) - boots, but adb does not detect devices (MiFlash sees it as com6 though)
-tried using axon7tool and minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.4 - same, detects while on, reboots to edl and nothing
-tried sideloading twrp through the adb sideload - says signatures are bad...
Oh, as a bonus, recovery is in Chinese, so I have to guess what's what
What could be the issue? Drivers, device itself? Owner? I don't want to be on the damn 6.0.1 - my nexus 5 was on that. plus zte skin is awful, I would want to flash cyanogenmod or at least a newer version that does not have the damn bell icon, or permanently stuck sms that I can't delete or mark as read
Is there a way to flash US or EU firmware? Any ideas would be welcome. And sorry for writing here - as a new user I'm unable to reply on the dev posts
Hi I have the same problem can anyone help on this issue to resolve
My unit is from aliexpress also but it was B11 when i received it. What i did was enabled usb debugging and oem unlock from dev options. Then boot in stock recovery and format the phone. I think it was the option above the choices where there is 'sd' written. Then installed the update via sd for b13.

I finally managed to do this via this method
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-b13-chinese-a2017-root-unlock-t3549873
and now I run lineageOS
you will need a laptop that you have admin access to, which allows you to disable your antivirus though.. which was my main problem
Moderators, if any, you can lock the thread
Hi man I hope you're OK. Today I was on A2017V2.1.1B07(MM) and I just downloaded B11(third one) from this link (http://www.ztedevice.com.cn/support/detail?id=B4C0ACE418834F588FED0C72D6046C78]) and put it on SD card and updated and installed it from settings(although I downloaded and put B11 on sd card, it showed B13 ROM update in settings). Then when It was finished , I got B15 Nougat OTA in settings and downloaded and installed it then again I've got B16 OTA in settings and installed it and now everything is okay. But I wanna ask you if I did it all correctly???(because I downloaded B11 Rom(not b13 rom from that link above) but I got B13 when I put that B11 on sd card and went to the setting)and Did you do the same???
Hi,
To be honest, I don't remember the actual steps. I followed this threadhttps://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-b13-chinese-a2017-root-unlock-t3549873 and finally did it =)But I don't think I was able to get and instal OTA updates =) I'm on US B25 version now, and every time I update I basically use DrakenFX's builds. How do you like your axon mate?
build 16 is latest so you are up to date
Hello people!
I've been doing installation of custom ROM and any kind of configuration for a while now. But I have now in my hands a tough problem. My dad bought athene XT1640-DS (Moto G4 Plus), just like the one of mine own, but mine doesn't have the '-DS'.
But the device is stuck at Stock Android 6.0.1 and I can't update it.
The USB seems have some problem because any PC in my house recognize the 6.0.1 phone, but works fine with my up to date 8.1.0 athene, but it's charging only, and the turbo charging isn't working. the fingerprint isn't working neither.
It looks like the bootloader was unlooked, because everytime it's turned on shows the 'bootloarder unlock message'. But I was unable to root it, I tried all the one click root apps, but none of them worked.
It doesn't have any custom recovery, so I tried to update with the stock recovery but every OTA Blur Version rom that I found for athene shows a error telling that my ROM version isn't compatible with the updates (the ROM version code of this phone is MPJ24.139-23.1/ 1 user).
Anyone have any hints of what can I do to update this device?
Device XT-1640-DS
Android: 6.0.1
M8952_7000.04.03.32R
ATHENE_BRAZIL_DSDS_CUST
Kernel: 3.10.84-GCF01273
[email protected] #1
MPJ23.139-23.1
From what I know one click methods doesn't work with this device. You need a proper kernel for android 6.0 like elementalx 1.0. And supersu or magisk zip flashed through a recovery like TWRP.
Is there a way to update de kernel, or do that other things without PC and root?
Or a way to use adb without USB connection?
Have you tried fastboot flash methods like in this thread?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138
So.. the big issue is that this device isn't connecting to the PC, it's charges, but neither the PC not the Android show any signs that their are connected. I can't use adb from the PC because I couldn't make the computer recognize the phone.
can you at least transfer files in mtp mode with the usb cable? because looks like the micro usb port is messed up.
If you are on warranty period you should go for it
I can't use the mtp neither. The only thing I can do is charge. And I'm out of warranty :/
I purchased a Zenfone 3 ZE552KL ( actually ASUS_Z012DC) on eBay that I wanted to put a custom ROM on.
It was indicated that the 3.5mm jack did not work. I thought it's a hardware issue, it's fine and I'll just replace it eventually.
However, after starting the procedure to install LineageOS, the phone would not be detected when plugged into USB, it would only work for charging
I tried:
- different USB cables (I am sure they are data cables)
- tried with USB debugging.
- tried different OS (mac, Linux, Win10) on different USB ports.
I did some research and found this thread that has the same problem: https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3/help/headphone-jack-usb-file-transfer-to-t3855942 The person seems to have fixed it:
What I did was I flashed (while device is unlocked) the Nougat raw firmware (WW_ZE552KL_14.2020.1712.85_M3.10.47.15), tested it and both were functioning. I decided to update to Oreo using the system update feature and it is still now working after I installed all the Oreo updates. I'm not planning to re-lock anytime soon as I installed root and found it beneficial.
I did follow the unofficial unlock/ re-lock prior to doing the previous steps, although I first flashed the factory raw rom (CSC_ZE552KL_13_13_1_36_M2_6_7_P7_userdebug.zip), unlocked and the flashed the Oreo raw firmware (WW_ZE552KL_15.0410.1806.68_M3.10.47.19) . Maybe skipping to flash the Nougat Raw firmware caused the problem? I'm not really sure, sorry I'm relatively new to all these.

The only difference is that this user burtosdad has "ZE552KL" in the firmware, but it seems to be the same phone. I was not able to find the firmware that the user refers to.
I have tried flashing "UL-ASUS_Z012D-WW-14.2020.1708.56-user.zip" by putting it on an SD card and going into recovery mode, but it failed (I think the error was that it failed an identification check or something).
What should I try next? Any way to get Nougat on this phone and try to fix the USB+phone jacks?
Thank you
Update:
Ok, so I found the official Asus files and here's what I tried doing:
Unlocked bootloader using ZE552KL_SIGNED_Android_M_UnlockTool_2016_0715.zip
This worked (getting a black screen before the ASUS logo now), and after this was done, I tried to flash the official firmware UL-ASUS_Z012D-WW-13.16.5.36-user.zip
However, I get this error:
This package is for "WW_Phone" devices; this is a " ",
and then an error " /sideload/package.zip (status 7) "
Someone had similar errors to mine here:
