Sorry for my bad english.

I can't post links yet so sorry if you have to copy+paste below but that method just worked for me:
1. Unlock Bootloader: raphsonbd.com/unlock-bootloader-lenovo-k6-power
2. Custom TWRP: drive.google.com/file/d/0B-RzcbLjUW5pRUFvTDluRnRYLXc/view
3. Flash standard SuperSU from inside TWRP
4. ???
5. Profit!!
Hope that helps.
i think root is not confirmed but you can try this method to unlock bootloader and install twrp

You did that on a k6 note? Even though the bootloader unlocker is for a k6 power?

I did that on a Lenovo K33A48 which would equal the marketing name "Lenovo K6 Vibe" so both bootloader's unlock commands seem to be identical.
Sidenote: Unlocking the bootloader wiped my device's /data partition, not sure if that's supposed to happen but this was just a dumb test-phone for my company anyways so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It could be that they all share the same bootloader, unusual but makes sense if you want to spend less on it.
I would've done it already if there was a way to unbrick the phone, but not even the Lenovo software seems to have an option to recover any of the k6 phones, let alone by other ways.
Is TWRP working fully on it? Also, did you managed to root it?

TWRP works nicely. It can access quite a lot of partitions (a lot more than on my HTC One M8 anyways): Aboot, Boot, Recovery, Splash, System Image, System, Preload, Persist, Cache, Data, Modem, Firmware-Update, Efs, Mrd Data. And they're all showing meaningful sizes. A backup of them all works nicely and installing SuperSU.zip using TWRP worked on the first try as well so yes, it's easily rootable if you can tolerate having your /data-partition wiped (= factory reset = do a backup first)

Using these instructions on a K53b36, aka K6 Note (aka K6 Plus on Brazil), I was able to unlock the bootloader and install TWRP on it successfully, without /data partition being wiped.
But, couldn't install supersu 2.79, and beta versions, on it, neither systemless or system mode, will try other supersu versions and also other super user solutions and see if any works.
Also, supersu system mode gets you into a boot loop, if you only installed supersu once and have no system backup, use this UnSu Script to fix the boot loop.
Any chances this root works on Vibe K6 Brazil (K33B36)?

Hard Bricked Zenfone 3 ZE520KL

Hello, I recently tried to root my Zenfone, and it went horribly wrong, and now I need to flash a new rom. Ive tried to do the method mentioned by Snshahid and it didnt work, as his boot.img was corrupt upon downloading. Any new fixes?

root on Zenfone 3 laser (zc551kl) ?

Has a method for rooting the zc551kl been made available?
Why is it taking so long? Is it because there is no bootloader unlock available yet? I've tried kingroot, TWRP, SRSroot, damn I think I've tried them all. Can someone help me?
No BL unlock, no root. It's that simple.

Hi, the official bootloader unlocking tool is out, and there is an option to flash TWRP and root ZenFone 3 Laser. Let me know if you're still interested. I'm using ZC551KL rooted with TWRP Android 7.1.1 stock.
How?

OK, Here we go; You downloaded bootloader unlock tool from Asus and want to root: https://www.asus.com/us/Phone/ZenFone-3-Laser-ZC551KL/HelpDesk_Download/
FILES TO DOWNLOAD:
-First you need to download the unofficial TWRP that works for this phone (twrp-3.1.1-unofficial): https://depositfiles.com/files/ux8w5thp6
-Second, you need superSU file (Many thanks and credits to @mauam for the links): https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/v2-64-2-66-supersu-mode-t3286120
-Third, if supersu doesn't work, you need Magisk v.15.3 (Lots of thanks and credits to @topjohnwu for providing us with these tools): https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
-Fourth, download ADB drivers and install them in your PC: https://gsmusbdriver.com/asus-zenfone-3-laser-zc551kl
-Again many thanks and credits to @Gt5228 for the original helpful "Idiots Guide" of how to root ZC551KL. If you have issues, follow this thread for info, links and solutions: https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3/help/how-to-root-zenfone-3-laser-zc551kl-t3502606/page5
NOTE: For some phones, superSU doesn't work. I run Android Nougat 7.1.1 stock on ZC551KL, and using superSU soft bricked my phone. I had to flash the stock again and try Magisk instead supersu, which worked. Others used successfully another version of SU, so please read the original thread before you start if you still have questions. I am not responsible for bricking your phone or any other issue you may encounter. Just to be safe, make sure you backed up your device, and have access to the original firmware file just in case you need to flash it again.
HOW TO:
-Install adb drivers;
-Enable debugging on your phone;
-Copy "twrp-3.1.1.unofficial.img" on your installed ADB folder (PC);
-Copy "Magisk-v15.3" or "superSU" on your phone's SD Card;
-Go in adb folder where your files are and pressing and holding "Shift" right click on nothing inside your folder and choose "Open command prompt here"
-With your phone still on and connected to PC, type "adb devices" You should see a serial number, that means your phone is connected via adb and you are good to go;
-Next, type "adb reboot bootloader"
-Once in bootloader type: "fastboot flash recovery <file name>.img (fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1.unofficial.img);
-After Flashing, DO NOT REBOOT YOUR PHONE INTO SYSTEM!!! Reboot into Recovery!
-Using vol up/down choose Recovery and wait to reboot on TWRP. You'll be asked for your pin if you have one;
-In TWRP (Recovery) press "INSTALL" from main menu and navigate to your saved file on SD Card (superSU or Magisk) and select it;
-After the installation, clean cache and restart. Now your phone has TWRP recovery and is rooted. Enjoy.
This is not entirely my work, all i did was just collecting information and links from web and put them here together.
P.S. I used Windows 7 Ultimate 64bits, USB 2.0 port.

Click to expand...

About custom roms, at this time there's absolutely none ported for ZenFone 3 Laser. I've been looking for weeks now, here on xda and everywhere else and found none to 0... No CM, no AOSP, no Lineage, no Viper OS, no nothing... disappointing, as there's lots of ZC551KL users waiting. As posted here, twrp, bootloader unlocking and rooting is possible, but beside the privacy apps we can install over root, we still have to live with all this blootware on Asus Zenfones. We'll get the Oreo update in August though, if that makes you feel better...
And here is the thread for How to download and install Xposed Framework. Must read as there's a different solutions for everyone. Works for my device. All thanks to @topjohnwu , @rovo89 , @wanam : https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-systemless-xposed-t3388268

Help with Root

Hi guys.
I saw a highly recommended post on rooting an Asus Zenfone Max 2 Pro(https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...t-asus-zenfone-max-pro-m2-unofficial.3885457/
Unfortunately , I saw it after I had already unlocked the bootloader using the UnlockDevice.apk tool from Asus' official website. Hence , the steps for rooting are now confusing since in that guide I have to use unlocker to install Magisk and root.
I want to know how to now root my phone now that I've already unlocked the bootloader , I just need help with the rooting part. Please help me out , I really need to recover some data that I lost when I factory reset , and the recovery tool I downloaded is saying root access is needed to deep scan and find those files.
I'm running a stock Android 9.0
