So I need to revert my OP2 back to 100% stock. I found my self some flashable stock firmwares but I'm not certain if using odin would work. Im noob at this lol. I currently have installed TWRP and root on my OP2. Can anyone tell me the process to undergo in order to go back to 100% stock
Yeah flash the 2.0 image and then apply the ota update. This will give you stock firmware and recovery.

Do not use Odin for anything related to OnePlus devices. Odin is used to flash firmware on Samsung phones.
Just flash the stock recovery image through TWRP. Wipe cahce & dalvik. Let the phone boot into Oxygen OS 2.0. It will then prompt you to update the firmware to 2.1.1. Apply that update and it will get you back to stock on the latest firmware.

I did what you say, and I'm back to stock! THank you! Also after doing full reset, TWRP prompted me if it were to overwrite the stock recovery, i said no, and then the device is 100% stock again!
Hi All,
A couple of days back, I installed custom ROM (Recreated Remix Leopard) successfully on Zenfone 5. I was on the stock lollipop 3.24.40.87 firmware before that. I rooted, unlocked Bootloader and installed TWRP recovery on the stock ROM and I also took a nandroid backup. After using the custom ROM, I decided to go back to the stock ROM. I used the nandroid backup for restoring and got the stock ROM. But, now I want to go back to the stock Kitkat ROM (as the lollipop sucks) and I also don't want the custom recovery or anything. In short, I want to revert my phone to the real factory condition.
I tried to go back to Kitkat by the ASUS official method. But that didn't work. Then I tried to re-lock the Bootloader with the tool from which I unlocked it. But when I did that, I got stuck on the USB logo screen. So, I unlocked it again with the same tool and the phone starts normally. So, how do I get back now?
What would happen if I flash the stock ROM via TWRP? Will it remove the custom recovery and lock the Bootloader?
I read a couple of articles, a few of them suggested to install the stock ROM with the official ASUS method (copy the files in internal storage and the phone will notify to install the update). The article even says that by this method any custom modifications (recovery, root, Bootloader) will be deleted. Is it true or will this work?
Thanks in advance!

Link rom WW 3.24.40.87 modded, flash via TWRP: drive.google.com/open?id=0B7Py5ad2aHwKMHRsZ1NJM0tfLTQ
If you flash this rom, it will not remove the custom recovery + lock the Bootloader
If you having a problem while flashing this rom, you need to flash stock recovery 2.22.40.54, after that you can sideload stock rom via ADB
Sorry for my bad english ^^

Hi, thank you for the reply
You said WW 3.24.40.87 modded, do you mean that this rom is not the official one? Does it improves the battery life and other bugs of the stock rom?
I really appreciate your help!
You cannot flash stock rom via TWRP!
This is modded rom, so you can flash it via TWRP easily....
It's Official rom from Asus, just modded to be able flash through TWRP

Thank you for the info
But the thing is that I am already on the stock 3.24.40.87 rom and I want to go back to Kitkat 2.22.40.54 because it has much more improved battery performance than the lollipop. Is there any modded version of the stock Kitkat rom too? Or how do I go back to it?

I have rooted my op5 and got twrp recovery but every time I update the rom by flashing it from recovery the recovery goes back to stock. Is it normal? Or is there a way to keep the twrp recovry ever after updating.
You need to flash supersu/magisk after flashing a ROM update to keep TWRP

Yes, and flashing the stock ROM also flashes the stock recovery. Hence TWRP being replaced.
If you want to keep TWRP after a stock ROM flash, just flash the recovery img file right after you flashed the stock ROM.

Or use Flashfire and check the appropriate box.
Use Flashify it's an app in the play store I had the same problem. Flash recovery via that

So I don't need to install it via bootlaoder every time.. I can just flash it via recovery after installing the rom and that will work??

Yes. I updated mine the exact same way.
But remember, flash them all at once and reboot only after you're done. Rebooting will replace TWRP with stock recovery and you won't be able to flash TWRP in stock.
Flash stock ROM, Magisk or SuperSU and a TWRP.img file, then reboot.

Thanks a lot
I just need to start fresh on my A510FD and I was wondering if I could simply flash the stock firmware to get rid of TWRP. I have a backup of the original recovery. The question I'm trying to ask is: can you remove TWRP by flashing stock firmware or do you need the backup of the original recovery. If not, could anyone provide me with some instructions on how to flash my stock recovery? Thanks a lot everyone!

it doesnt matter from where u have the firmware,after odinflash your custom recovery is gone,just install it new,its no problem.
So I'm in a custom rom, twrp installed.

You can flash AFT ROM through fastboot mode. It'll revert everything back to stock, including recovery. You can download everything here.
