I just recently upgraded my phone to the new zenfone AR through verizon. Previously i had a rooted HTC one m9 which gave me some trouble with rooting but some people on here ended up helping me get it very easily therefore i was wondering if anyone has found a way to gain root access to the verizon modle of the zenfone AR. i have gotten it into recovery mode but it wont let me flash anything from there. any information that could help would be greatly appricated. thanks in advance

There is bootloader unlock app on asus oficial site (but search for model ZS571KL) but do not know anything about root.
You try and tell us
Unfortantly I have tried the bootloader unlock tool on the Asus website, but because I have the zenfone AR through Verizon it does not work. Any ideas on how I may go about making that work on the Verizon version? Also I have not found a firmware for the Verizon one anywhere I've tried extracting it from my phone when I got the update to no avail. If anyone has any ideas on how to get any of these things working it would be greatly appreciated because then I can start working on a twrp for it as well.
I think you're out of luck, mate.
Root is easy here with the non-Verizon using Magisk to patch the boot image. But, bootloader.
I'll try and see if I can find that Verizon update online.
Here's a wild idea but have you tried intercepting the update instead of extracting it (judging how it would probably be put into /data). i.e. MitM.
It'll be nice to have the Verizon users free to get some development on this phone.
Good luck. Cheers.

connect phone, choose USB connection type - System Update/Repair
install software upgrade assistant
Run it and choose repair - it will download current version of firnware
or
Run it and choose update - it will download update, if available
download folder will be C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\VerizonSUAAsus\firmware\ASUS_A002A
But file in a RAW format, not sure how conver to some kind of flashable or how to flash???

maybe you need update to newer firmware
look here, https://www.asus.com/zentalk/thread-186959-1-1.html
I actually had not thought of doing a mitm to intercept it next time an update comes out I can try that. I'm going to try the software assistant one later today when I get home and see if I can for an update or something. Thank you guys very much for the ideas I'll let you know if I get anything.
Hello,
my son has a samsung a3 2016 and unfortunately he made a hard reset and now can't remember the google account info. To bypass it i wanted to downgrade it to 6.0 from 7.0 but sw rev check fail device 5 binary 3 error.

Probably you want to downgrade the bootlader. If the firmware is A310FXXU2**** you can't downgrade. If the firmware is A310FXXU3**** you can downgrade. https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-a3-/SM-A310F/SER/download/A310FXXU3BQD2/132023/

You can downgrade a firmware is the firmware has U3 bootloader. For example A310FXXu3CQI2. If the firmware is A310FXXu2**** you can't downgrade.

Hello i have a samsung galaxy s9-g960f with binary 17 i think, odin says device 17 binary 2 (or whatever i want to flash). Is there any way to downgrade it to binary u2?
Samsung's downgrade lock is an insult to users. The blatant destruction of the device is a mockery of the user's intelligence and an abandonment of Samsung's reputation.
Hello guys! I would like to downgrade my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge to a version where I have the outdated security patch, preferably in the May 2018 version for me to play Pokémon Go. However, I downloaded a ROM of that date but when it was installed, the security patch remained the same, February 2019. I am downloading another ROM, but with the android version 7.0, but if anyone can help me in knowing what the problem is, thank you!

I finally got it, i root it and i try to install hungarian firmware, baceuse i cant unlock it -w-
I want to downgrade my sprint s7 edge (it has oreo 8.0.0 G935PVPUACSJ3) for root and network unlock.
There is no way to downgrade as i read, but what about rooting?
good day everyone,
Please forgive me for asking this about the VNS-L23. I know there are tons on similar issues on the forum, I've been reading but non specific to my model. I also know that some of the solutions may work on the VNS-L23 variant as well but, I'm swamped and a bit confused. Can someone please assist in helping me restore the VNS-L23 back to stock OR the latest OS/firmware that is available?
I tried flashing a Nougat firmware, flash was successful but, when phone rebooted it would not go past the Huawei eRecovery, no matter what i try.
I tried flashing other VNS-L23 firmwares via 3 button method...no success
I tried 'Download latest version and recovery'...no success
I am able to get into Fastboot mode.
I tried to flash TWRP...i was unsuccessful (ADB did recognize device).....on FASTBOOT screen i see Phone: Locked FRP: unlocked...failed...command not allowed (i think)
I tried to use DC unlock-er to make some headway, of course i have to make a purchase costing 15 pounds. I always support these things but, i do not want to purchase and it still does not work.
According to DC unocker's detection:
Firmware: VNS-L23C605B120
FB LockState: Locked
USER LockState: Locked
You guys are awesome here and i know I'll get back my device to work....Please, I just bought it, not even 2 days and i cant even use it now because of this issue.
Many thanks in advance....Ronald
Is this the 2016 or 2017 model?
2016

I just wanna known wich files i have to use for make a rollback
Guys...I tried and tried and tried. Was most frustrating so I resorted to someone from Pakistan with software and programs to bring my P9 lite back to life. If you guys want I can put you on to the person. Or, if we can sort it out here then better because, of course it comes with a small fee to restore my device back to normal but I was desperate. I will say though, I didn't regretted it.

Hi dude, ok, if you tell device version and exact stock firmware
a little possibility to find some rollback package still exist.
But what are exactly your issue ?
Maybe you don't need rollback files...
Can you boot to system ?

My version is vns-L23C212B336
I have two problems:
1. When I'm on horizontal (for example whatching a vodeo in YouTube, or playing in a game) the screen rotates itself, and the comeback, even when the autorotate is off.
2. When I'm going to type something the keyboard hides itself and I have to open it again.
And that's all, I hope you can help me.
By the way, I have tried to make a factory reset but it didn't work.

Well, looking onto the UNIFIED HELP THREAD, in post #6
there is "UNBRICKING AND DOWNGRADING FROM EMUI 5" section.
Here are some rollback packages but not for L23...
You need that package and need the full ota L23C212B130 firmware
from which extract update.app.
I don't know how to grab those files. I've searched with
Firmware Finder but B130 full ota isn't there...
So, go to next step...

B336 seems to be the latest firmware and no update are available.
If you want play a bit with your device you should consider
a rebrand but it is a bit difficult to find correct L23oeminfo file and firmware.
Maybe it can be converted to L21 or L31 version but never tried, i won't risk..
Some payed services should exist to assist you...
That's all dude, feel free to ask.
Cheers
edit: modified the link to UHT thread.
well, i think i will resign.
Thanks for your help anyway.

Hi, I have the same problem with my Vns l23, could you tell me what firmware did you use to fix it?
Hello,
Recently I've updated my Galaxy S8 g950fd from Android 8.0 to 9.0, however i found it terrible and I would love to go back to 8.0. I've read many topics and all of them states that I have to downgrade it through the Odin. I've downloaded a few softs from websites:
SM-G950F_1_20181227130827_c3nriwjmas_fac
G950FXXS4CRLB
G950FXXS4CRLB_G950FOXM4CRL1_LYS
G950FXXU3CRGH_CL14023573_QB19093103
G950FXXS4CRLB_G950FOXM4CRL1_LYS
G950FXXU1AQG5_G950FOXM1AQG5_ZTO_4file
And non of them works. Odin keep showing FAIL message, phone stuck on bootloop and the only software I can use is 9.0 ( G950FXXS5DSF1_OXM5DSF1_(SM-G950FD))
At this moment I'm downloading 2 firmwares from sammobile.com website: XSG-G950FXXU4CRL3-20181218135110 and XSG-G950FXXS4CRLB-20190128142840 and I hope they will resolve the issue I'm facing.
What am I doing wrong? Is there any other way to downgrade my phone?
Thanks a lot for replies!
Your bootloader version is v5 and all other firmware including previous pie and all Oreo firmware are at v4 . If u installed June or July update on your phone then u can't go back anymore and thus Odin keep faling for your

I've found Lineage 15.1 OS with bootloader v5 on android 8.0 however I am struggling now with installing TWRP. Keep getting FAIL in ODIN and note in phone: Only official relased binaries are allowed to be flashed (RECOVERY). I've tried to reset cache, perform factory data, OEM is enabled and usb debugging as well. I don't know what's going on to be honest and after reviewing thousands of posts - I can't fix that issue.. My current software on my g950fd is G950FXXU5DSFB Android 9.0.
Is here anyone who can advice me what should I do? I would really appreciate that. Thanks!
Anyone?
