I had a problem with my asus zenfone 2 ZE550ML flashing the rom via the voice: "install update from ADB" arrived at 1/4% the installation crashes and everything goes wrong, I tried before flashing the firmware to format the mobile phone via the PC since it is impossible to turn it on because it does not start ... after a few commands left via ADB it no longer goes to the screen where the ASUS logo loads and in the fastboot screen it tells me in blue "waiting CMD" something of the kind .. after doing these tests, desperate, I took him to a service center, and he told me the guy who does not receive the software because the motherboard is burned ... how can you help me? Thanks in advance for who will do it?

I have an Acer A501 which had Android 3.2.1 on it and recently decided to provide to my parents as a tv guide device so they could sit and research on it. They didn't need the 3G component.
I performed a factory reset and we were unable to use the Market/Play Store to load any of my parents apps. I returned home with the device so decided to try and upgrade to 4.0+
Upon doing lots of reading I started loading an ICS bootloader (a500_a501_bootloaders_apx_ics_v9) with the A500APX Flash.exe I found.
Since doing this my device sits at "Reboot the device!" in big red letters and the Acer logo has turned yellow. When I try a Power+LeftVolume reset it tries to read from SD card but fails. My Micro-SD is 64GB, whats the max size and is there anything special I need to do to try and ressurrect the device?
Can anyone help me with my problem?
When I boot with Power + Volume Up I get shown the following:
Erasing Cache before SD update...
SD update cmd:recovery
--update_package=SDCARD:update.zip
Same issue

Hi
I got a friends A501 tablet and he asked me to upgrade the os. so I flashed the bootloader with the same bootloader as you and got stuck with the same problem. Yellow Acer and reboot the tablet in red. Did you ever find a solution?
Hi! I have exactly the same issue! did any one knows what the steps to fixe it? I tried to follow the unbrick solutions and nothins because I don't even get connection to the computer. The only way to listen the USB connection is with a paper clip press reset and power for 3 seconds (or more) and I will ear the sound of a USB device being connected to the computer, but then I try to write adb usb or adb shell and nothing... and with AfterOTA tool appears in the USB section: ERROR - connect usb cable and enable usb debugging (in dhe Driver section is OK).
Hello,
i have a problem with my 1 week old yotaphone and hope you guys can help me to solve.
Let me say, this is my first android device. After a long time using iphones i saw this 2-displays concept and wanted to give it a try.
But now my problem and the way to:
The phone was brand new and first of all i charged it for a wohle night.
After that i put in the sim-card and started the phone and walked through the start-procedure with WLAN, Googleaccount etc.
Then the phone told me about an update and i started it over WLAN.
The phone was downloading, rebooting and shows me a white window "updating x of 127(?) Apps".
Somewhere in the middel the phone rebooted again and now its in a bootloop.
What is possible with the phone right now.
I can start the phone wit the bootloop (powerred byAndroid, then restart)
I can use "Power + Vol-" to bring it into downloading mode
When i use "Power + Vol+" nothing happend.
When i use "Vol+ + Vol-" nothing happend.
The akku of the phone is empty now and it only works with usb or power unit connected.
In bootloop or downloading mode it is not charging.
What i tried.
What i try:
I read many topics with bricked / bootlooped yotphones and how to flash or cache whipping.
i connected the phone to my pc and used yotoflasher with many different firmwares.
I used fastboot:
- flashed the system.ing with differnet sizes.
- tried different custom recovery.img from different threads here and from other sites.
Even a complete new image, moddified RU img doesn`t help.
The phone stays in bootloop.
Yes, it`s a warranty case, but before i start to strech my nerves by handling with the dealer and shipping
this phone back to china i will try everything else and hope you can help me out of this situation.
Thanks a lot

If your phone displays Downloading... and fastboot keeps saying waiting for device then there is something wrong with the installed ADB driver. Check some of the posts in this forum like this one on how to fix this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/yotaphone-one/help/yotaphone-2-yd-206-china-flash-firmware-t3306797/post69311402#post69311402
Strange that you had an OTA (Over The Air update). You didn't do anything between the SIM/Google registration and OTA ?
Normally there are no OTAs allowed on yd206 phones bought from China/HK , where did you buy it ? Chinese retailers have their own firmware that they put on phones , for me , maybe you had bad firmware installed.
The warranty of your phone is voided if you flash yotaphones bought from China and HK .
When you use yotaflasher do you get error message or "waiting for device" ?
To flash the Yotaphone , it should be in developer mode , but you couldn't put it in this mode because it first did the OTA that started your bootloop. Android apps are updated like that ("installing x of 127") when it gets updated to lollipop. Normally the OTA should have worked OK. Did you allow enough time at the Yotaphone logo after the first reboot ? It stays on this logo for 5 minutes before starting. I made this mistake.
The OTA started just after you set up Google etc ?
If so, normal yotaflashing will never work, but at least you havent broken the warranty . The thing we need to know is what exactly happened when you tried to flash , what errors messages appeared ?
If you did not put the phone in developer mode, then you cannot easily flash the phone, so your best possibility is to return the phone. Normally you can contact the seller by chat or email . Some are very good in exchanging.
It IS possible to flash your phone using fastboot, but I would not personally attempt it and you would lose your warranty . You need rootkits, SDK toolkits, universal drivers and images. Google "bootloop without USB debugging".
When I flashed my yd206 , (after many attempts) I flashed my yd206 to yd201 Russian KitKat ROM first and then did an OTA to lollipop.
Hello everyone,
I'm writing here, because accidentally i turned my zenfone 2 into a brick, following an indian youtuber on this link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJPEc1NG_k8&t=185s&list=FLJXXdfRBIfVwi7iWKHUJJrw&index=1 while trying to update to Nougat 7.1.
The guide is very well done and precise, in fact the fault is totally mine because i accidentally launched by using ADB, the bootloader of the Zenfone 2 ZE550ML then the screen became blank on power up...
So i followed this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/guide-brick-soft-hard-bricked-zenfone-2-t3284256 stopping before point 2) and at least i reached to get out from the permanent blank screen.
Now i'm in trouble because if i use ASUS flash tools (after installing Intel Driver), i am able to see the phone and trying to install on it the .raw file, but at the end of a while, it says "Flash image Failure (Wrong image format).
Then i tried the way "2", installing it by using fastboot, i unzipped the official ROM for ZE551ML and tried to install one per one as the described in the guide, the various parts of the SO, but each time i send a command (checked many times the sintax), the software starts downloading it on the phone and then stops, saying everytime with every file "Failed".
Thinked also to ADB, but by using "adb devices" it doesn't recognize any device...
So... may the bootloader given by the guide be wrong? or an old one version? What can i do?
If i try to get into recovery mode, it just shows an USB cable forever... i'm costricted to repeat the first part of the operation with xFsTK Downloader.
I thank you for any help or suggestion.

Several other users have also reported bricking their devices with the 073 update. Also they seem to have tried every possible method to resolve it but failed. Service center is the last resolution now.
Mine also got the same issue . I checked with the service center .They are saying motherboard problem .

Unfortunately service center is the only hope now. Stock rom updates starting from pie 73 is doing this to the devices.
Also in the same boat, tried everything.
Got in touch with local official support, they're also saying that all I can do is to pay for repairs (aka replacement of entire motherboard, so basically buying a new phone), which costs more than a new Max Pro M2 used to. It's crazy.
And the issue seems to be spreading. Are they really going to ignore this?
Looks like in India though they ARE offering free replacements.
Hello!
I have an Asus zenfone 2 laser ze500kl.
Initially few day ago it was stuck on Asus Logo only I can access is twrp recovery and fastboot mode so in order to make it normal boot i flashed zip file through Aft all flash file initially in command prompt on pc it shows that "device unlock true erase sbl... and at the end Failed unknown error. Now we will try it again!"
but at that moment I disconnected my device from pc. And removed battery to turn off fastboot mode and want see will it turn on but my phone won't turn on. It's dead. no charging, no leds, no vibration. it is not recognized by PC with usb. nothing. Just dead. i removed the battery, let it without battery like, 20 seconds, put it back on, and still dead.
What can i do? Now is there any chance to make it on although device is dete to pc when I connect but won't turn on at all so pls if is there any chance to make it on pls let me I shall be much obliged to him. This is my favorite phone.
So. That's why i posting here. Some ideeas? Some chances ? i think it's I erased some file while flashing due to it wasn't turn on either in fastboot or in recovery.
Pls see attached flashing pic
*Sorry for bad english*
