[SOLVED] - [ZE601KL] Need help to find stock recovery - Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I bricked my device flashing the wrong recovery and rom (didn't know it was the wrong one til I saw the poop I did), now the screen sucks even after flashing correct firmware with back2stock. I believe that installing correct recovery would solve (if not, well, idk what to do with this)

if you install an older version with back2stock and put the latest version on internal storage then it'll detect the update file and ask if u wanna install the update.
if you update like that, stock recovery will be back... i don't have a ze601kl so, i can't just share the recovery
for example, install "WW-21.40.1220.2161" with back2stock then put the "WW_21.40.1220.2170" zip on your internal storage.

Thanks, it is now working as a new one :3

it was probably the firmware...
since you installed the z00l recovery and z00l rom, you replaced z00t firmware with z00l firmware.
if that happens again, you can just flash this with twrp and should fix the problem. https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24671318762849134
this one is a bit outdated but you can just copy the "firmware-update" folder from latest rom and replace the files in this zip. that would work.
back2stock doesn't update the firmware thats why it didn't fix the phone at first. but when you installed the new rom as an update it updated the firmware with correct z00t firmware. it wasn't about the stock recovery, it was the firmware.

EMUI 4.0 Android 6.0.1 KIW-L21 C185 (Middle East Version)

Warning : I am not responsable for any bricked devices, dead sd cards, or other issues, I just wanted to share this, because I know, there are many Honor 5x KIW-L21 C185 users, and this, in my case, worked.
Warning :
***This will turn your device into a single sim phone.***
This WILL CHANGE your CUST version to 432.
Because I couldn't wait anymore for the official MM update from Huawei. I managed to install EMUI 4.0 Android 6.0.1 on my KIW-L21 C185, Middle East Version following this steps here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67851428&postcount=2 .
1. You need to install TWRP, obviously . http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=19454
2. Download mm-update from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=19446 and extract files, you should be seeing 2 image files : TZ.img and MODEM.img .
3. Download and install Huawei Update Extractor http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454 .
4. In my case, I downloaded this firmware here http://download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=84663&version=327467 .
5. Now, using the Huawei Update Extractor, open the downloaded firmware and extract BOOT.img , CUST.img , SYSTEM.img on your computer.
6. Reboot phone in recovery mode and make a full TWRP backup.
7.Wipe data/factory reset and then wipe system, Data, Cache, Cust, Dalvik/Art Cache.
8. Install, and in the bottom of the screen, choose install image as following:
I. BOOT.img install to Boot.
II. CUST.img install to cust_image.
III. SYSTEM.img install to system_image.
IV. TZ.img install to tz_image.
V. MODEM.img install to modem_image.
9. After installing all of the above files, just reboot and there it is.
Untill now, I haven't found any bugs or issues, except that in the 'About Phone' panel at Model Number it doesn't say anymore KIW-L21 , but says 'MSM8916 for arm64'.

So it seems, in my case,everything is working, no FC's , camera working fine in professional mode, extends battery life.
Only thing I didn't try is going back to stock C185 Rom.
Also,didn't try flashing others rom,because I really like how it's working on EMUI 4.0

I'm not sure, I would try going back to stock rom first , as I not know how would it affect flashing over CM. Try to revert to stock first , than do update,than flash CM again.

You have to put it on the sd card in dload folder than hold volume - , volume + and power , and the rest does it by itself..also, after , make sure you update to b140 , as it will ask for it after you configure the phone.

Yes,but you got back to stock using the update.app or your recovery ? If You did recovery try force updating stock using the dload folder and the update.app.

Download this https://mega.nz/#!Q0YQmIQD!KSwQvGymMUf-YA4A5oDFBvg12UwQlPDm5dIOdTDsEjc
You should be seeing either an archive either the update.app file, wich is the stock b130 rom.
Now, copy the update.app on the sd card into a folder called dload ( If you don't see it, just create it ).
Power off the phone, then press at the same time volume +, volume - and power and it should install the stock b130 rom. Next just do the update to b140 through the updater and reinstall twrp and try again .
If while updating you encounter any errors , try reinstalling stock recovery first.

Help me Zenfone 2 laser ZE500KG Bootloop!!!!!

my zenfone 2 laser is bootloop! (ZE500KG)
I try flash file TWRP but I can't do that!
It say ''Failed'' > '' zip verification failed''
anyone know how to fix it faulty?
TWRP 3.0.2-0 (TeamWin) for zenfone 2 laser!
ALSO DO NOT FLASH WITH ADB! Help me. :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Hey,I dont know if u found the answer yet
TWRP can just flash unofficial rom
not official rom
if you want official rom
you have to use oem recovery...not twrp
I m look for answer too...that is all i know
TWRP can install both Stock Or Custom Roms...it is based upon the update-script...
I had an issue where I could install any of the cyanogenmod 13 nightly updates past June 14th on my phone, a ze551kl. I resolved the issue by updating to the OEM ROM 21.40 from the Asus website. Hopefully this is helpful.
I downloaded the following files from the?*Asus website and copied them into the?*SD Card?*of my phone:
- UL-Z00T-WW-1.16.40.763-user.zip
- UL-Z00T-WW-1.17.40.1234-user.zip
- UL-Z00T-WW-21.40.1220-1615-user.zip
- UL-Z00T-WW-21.40.1220-1794-user.zip
I then used fastboot to install the stock recovery image. After installing the stock recovery, I rebooted into recovery mode and installed 1.16 and restarted the phone. After the phone booted into 1.16, I rebooted into recovery and installed 1.17, etc . . . until I updated to 21.40.1220-1794.
After the last update, I replaced the stock recovery with TWRP and l was able to install the latest nightlies. It seems like installing 21.40 was the key to fixing this issue.
An important side note : I downloaded the WW ROMs because my phone is a WW region. If your phone is from a different region, you will need to download the appropriate ROMs.
Good luck with your phone.

ZE552KL need stock recovery for ASUS_Z012D-WW-14.2020.1703.28

Hello,
My device is an Asus Zenfone 3 ZE552KL with TWRP 3.1.0.
I need the original stock recovery for ASUS_Z012D-WW-14.2020.1703.28 (Android N).
Is it possible to build it from the firmware?
Otherwise, where can I find it?
Thank you in advance for your help.
nobody can help me
Are you running on 1703.28 currently?
Do a TWRP backup and then dirty flash the stock image on top, it shouldn't change any data or settings but will replace recovery (happened to me when I updated from 1701).
I'm curious, why do you want to go back to stock recovery? I'll never go back, lol
Edit: if anyone with the stock 1703.28 firmware and root can run an adb shell and make a backup of it using " dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p59 of=/sdcard/recovery.bin" and upload it.
I am currently rooted and to install the latest firmware stock, I have to do it from stock recovery because it does not work from TWRP.
After that, I will reinstall TRWP
The stock recovery can be downloaded from asus site :
https://www.asus.com/fr/Phone/ZenFone-3-ZE552KL/HelpDesk_Download/
Or direct download link : (1.8 Gb)
http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZE552KL/UL-ASUS_Z012D-WW-14.2020.1703.28-user.zip
@olivierzx
This is the full firmware, but stock recovery is not available.
Unless you know a way to build it from the firmware.

You do not need stock recovery to install the stock rom.
Just edit the update script, see this

Flash-able Zip for Latest MiFavor 5 for A2017

Anyone can give a link for a flashable zip for the latest rom for the ZTE Axon A2017 (chinese) variant. Greatly appreciated.

why do you want a flashable zip? If you have an A2017 you can simply flash a stock recovery then put the official ROM on an SD card and install it (there's an option that says 'sd' between the Chinese ideograms) and you'll have OTA support (B08 just came some days ago).
If you still want the zip I guess you can use the one on Kernels, ROMs, Recoveries (something about MiFavor 5). Keep in mind that the dev deleted the stock browser and you don't have Play stuff unless you install it, AND you need to format data to get rid of the encryption which wipes out your internal storage, so you'd need to sideload a browser with your PC. And after that you can install the google stuff. OpenGApps don't work, you need a manual install / with an app.

Thanks for the heads up, do you have the link to the stock recovery for the device and the rom for the A2017. I am sort of new to this.

I have the G - only have the link to the G recovery. But there should be a flashable stock recovery for the A2017 around, just google some. Be REALLY careful with the model though, nasty things might happen if you install another model's recovery!
If you find the flashable zip file can you send the link to me? I will add it to my guide if you find it, hopefully make it compatible with the Chinese.
They will put the download link in this link below soon. And if you are already on A2017V1.1.0B17, you can get A2017V2.0.0B08(MiFavor 5.0) through OTA. What version are you right now?

So flash B17 zip through recovery. and you get B08(MiFavor 5) through OTA. If it gives you error flashing B17 , then download B13 from that link and try if it works

You can't flash the official zip with TWRP though, you need the TWRP flashable ones. Just saying
Or use the custom B06 ROM and be done with it, it has no bugs
