Working recovery for flashing

I am trying to flash an image onto a zenfone 5 using the recovery. I have tried sideloading and also pushing the zip to the SD card. It just seems to hand randomly.
I then tried checking the uploaded zip file (to /sdcard) by running md5um on it and the value changes each time I run md5sum. I have tried a few versions of the TWRP recovery and the all seem to have the same problem. Is there one that works?
I just rooted my friend's Zenfone 5 with an auto installer. Here's the link on google drive LINK . Just extract the zip and follow instructions in the "help file.txt". It's a script that automates all the commands. I don't remember where I got this from, but if someone else knows, please link the original for credits.

ZTE Blade A2 Plus Rooting( SuperSU or Magisk),Recovery & Flashing Stock Rom

Hi there, good to see you.
After struggling to find any helpful information about rooting ZTE Blade A2 plus, I finally was able to root>soft brick>hard brick>stock flash>repeat this beautiful device. So thought to share it here so that it becomes helpful for someone in need.
Device Information: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ge...te-blade-a2-plus-5-5-fhd-mt6750t-3gb-t3480759
Prerequisite: Winrar Latest version, VCOM and device drivers (MT67xx), General intelligence to download the attachments and to arrange everything in order and you're good to go
Step 1: Install custom recovery (We'll install TWRP)
a} Download recovery and preloader
b} Download Scatter file
c} Download SP Flash tools
d} Only tick recovery and preloader and select the downloaded files and flash it
e} When the process finishes and SP flash tools displays done, remove the phone and press "Vol Up+Power" to boot into recovery. It may ask you to make /system writable if you want swipe as indicated
f} Done enjoy
Note: Take this opportuniy to first of all backup your stock rom using TWRP and save it elsewhere.
Step 2: Rooting (With Magisk Or Super SU)
a} Download Magisk or Super SU flashable zip as per your need
Note: Magisk gives most of the Super SU features and doesn't trips google security net so you are able to use banking apps while rooted with magisk
b} Place downloaded zip in your sd card
c} Boot into TWRP recovery and flash the said zip
d} Done enjoy
Step 3: Flashing stock rom (Only russian version as of now)-Language is english bloatwares are Russian
a} Download Stock Rom from https://yadi.sk/d/RZLBrKKv3LxejN
Note: It contains PC Flashable stock rom along with scatter files and NVRAM backups so it'll help if you lose IMEI during the process, it is advisable to keep this offline as backup in case links stops working.
b} Flash the downloaded stock rom with SP flash tools
Note: This stock rom doesn't support VOLTE so i advice you to first take a full backup of your initial rom after installing TWRP, also please share that backup here as well so as i could add it to this thread to make it helpful for someone who has already lost VOLTE inclusing me
Conclusion: I'll be very happy if this information proves useful to you in any manner and also request you to must share your backup for me to get VOLTE back.

Is this an update to the Stock Rom?
hi, can u help me please, iam tryin to update with twrp , i did remove first line from script but i have error.
Found a way to unlock bands on MTK based phones by flashing basebands from phones with the same chipset. Doing this by using SPFLASH and flashing md1 files. Still unable to connect to cell network on my Doogee bl12000. Flashed this phones MD1, was wondering if anybody could provide me with the nvdata and nvram from the ZTE blase a2 plus. Hoping by flashing those files can connect to a U.S. network.

Flashing stock rom gives Treble Compatibility error

Hello.
I'm trying to get my phone back to stock rom.
I'm using the TWRP from the [All In One] post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...overy-unofficial-twrp-touch-recovery-t3921637
And I'm trying to install the file I got from: http://en.miui.com/download-360.html
But when I flash the file (miui_LAVENDERGlobal_V10.3.5.0.PFGMIXM_a5cabeca22_ 9.0.zip) I get the error attached.
Can anyone help me with this error?
Download the zip file again from miui.com, if you’re using a custom rom go to ‘Wipe’ -> ‘Advanced Wipe’ and wipe the ‘Cache’, ‘Dalvik/ART Cache’, ‘Data’ and ‘System’ partitions.
Once you are done, go back and tap on the ‘Install’ button and browse the rom file.
If this doesn't work, try the fastboot method with the miui flash tool.
delete compatibility.zip in rom file and flash normally
Thanks for the replies. I already formatted and wiped, and tried redownloading the stock rom file, but got the same error. I also tried the MIUI flash tool but got an error after doing the last step.
However... I did end up fixing the problem moments ago.
As I was leaving work, a nerd directed to a wepage that had instructions that worked:

Almost soft-brick my device. Need help, Emergency!!

Hey guys!
This is my first ever thread on XDA! And my problem goes like
I have a Asus max Pro m2 device. And also I'm familiar with things like custom ROMs, custom recovery, rooting and all that stuff. I have been using custom ROMs, etc etc.. from a long time. And I use TWRP as my recovery system. Recently I tried to install lineage OS on my phone, but it gave me an error 7. Then I searched on google about what is error 7. Tried all the solutions, nothing worked. Then I thought it's happening because of my phone's modem. So I searched for the latest modem file for my device, then I got a file on XDA. And that was a TWRP backup file of the Modem and the EFS. So I downloaded it and restore the file through TWRP. And from there, I'm not able to install any custom rom on my device. I tried many of them but couldn't. All of them have me an error 7.
But before that everything was fine. I was in evolution X custom rom. And that file ruined my device completely. Now I'm completely helpless, clueless. So what to do. Any expert suggestions?
PLEASE RESPOND!!!
Hi, if you didn´t solve this problem watch this video that has the solution for asus zenfone max pro m2 brick devices. Keep in mind that when you do this, the phone gonna be with the first oreo version, relock bootloader and unroot your device so you have to uptade manually.
Copy the zip ROM file to your PC and unzip it using your favorite archiver (for example, 7-zip);
After unpacking find META-INF folder and go the META-INF/com/google/android line. In the last directory you will find two files called "update-binary" and "updater-script". We are interested in the latter one;
Rename "updater-script" to "updater-script.txt" and open it in any text editor (for instance, Notepad++);
Now remove the line starting with "assert" to the next semi-colon. Usually it is the first or a few first lines in the beginning of the text file;
Save the modified file;
Rename "updater-script.txt" back to "updater-script";
Update all files you have unpacked;
Copy the modified zip-file on your phone;
Reboot your Android device to recovery mode and try to update it again. Status Error 7 should be gone.
