BootLoop - ZE500KL

Hi friends...
First of all, I'm sorry for my bad English.
So, my phone went to bootloop out of nowhere, no updates caused it, no root method either, just all the suddent... Went to bootloop.
Via recovery mode, I erase all user data & cache = Still BootLoop / Did not work.
Downloaded the firmware from the Asus website (concerning my model of the zenfone), also drivers & tools. So via adb installed it 100% = Still BootLoop / Did no work.
So, if anyone could be facing the same issue and solve it somehow, please let me know the way.
I've seen that this problem is a frequently issue in this phones, but, I haven't seen the solution for this Zenfone Laser 2 ZE500KL specifically.
Thanks in advance.

Place your downloaded full firmware in external sd card. Apply update through sd card in stock recovery.

Solved!

[FIX] Asus Zenfone 2 Laser ZE550KL Marshmallow update problem, failed to mount /asdf

I have good experience with other phones but this is my first time working with ZE550KL.
So I took my uncle's phone and he asked me to update his phone to the latest firmware to get the VoLTE feature.
He is was on ZE550KL_WW_21.40.1220.1708 which is Marshmallow of the ZEN UI.
I have downloaded the latest firmware from the ASUS website but I couldn't update it because the recovery which came with the marshmallow update is broken.
These are the errors I got

}
Here is what I did, and hope this works for everyone.
Hoping that you already went and searched about the problem over the internet.
These are the things you need to download :
ADB and fastboot
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0aDjdU4gTwZZW1HUHhqWnEteXM/view
Recovery image file
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0aDjdU4gTwZa1MyUmVPN3BhQjQ
Latest firmware:
https://www.asus.com/in/support/Download/39/1/0/22/ZROQURlyupei1ZQz/32/
1. Download the adb and fastboot drivers. Download the latest firmware and copy it onto your internal storage.
2. Boot into the bootloader.
3. Download the recovery image and paste it into the adb folder.
4. Now type the following command.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
5. This step is very important.
Now, all you have to do is hold the power button and the volume down button to boot into the installed recovery.
Remember that if you restart your phone after step 4, your old recovery(which does not work) will still be there.
6. Now select update from sdcard and select the zip file of the latest firmware you downloaded.
7. It will take at least 10 minutes to install, don't panic if you think the screen froze.
I hope this solves the issues many users are facing.
Feel free to ask questions, I will be very happy to answer.
The recovery we installed is the recovery of Android Lollipop version of the Zen UI ROM.

Thanks. It worked. The only difference is that after flashing the old recovery, my SD card was showing blank. So i selected the adb sideload option and flashed the new build.. Thanks for your guide.

Thanks but few doubts remain. The recovery you used is from Lollipop`s 1.17.40.1503 right?
Can we not do this by installing a temporary recovery image (twrp)?
I have also read elsewhere ( https://devs-lab.com/e-unable-to-mount-asdf-recovery-error-solved.html ) that you would need the boot image too. But your instructions are way too easier and easy to follow. Why don't you use boot image?
If we are using the boot image then which version of it should we use?

Before I tried any of this... First thing I did was boot TWRP and install the lastest firmware.
But I couldn't do so because TWRP doesn't let you flash .img files.
And for the best result it is always better for you to use the official recovery to flash an official firmware.
Because ASUS f***ed up, I needed to install the previous version of the recovery to flash the firmware.
And I'm very happy that my guide worked for you.
Don't forget to give thanks. :laugh:

I haven't tried it yet. So you didn't tamper with boot.img at all. Right?
Also as previously asked what's the build number from which you extracted the recovery.img? Is it from .1503?
My current build is .1708 same as what you worked on. And will data get erased during this process?

How can I boot into the bootloader? is it by unlocking it? or is there any other non-invasive way?
Update: I installed as per your instructions. Device shows "Optimizing app 5 of 51".
Thank you.

Thank you
Thank you sir, this helped me a lot.

recovery link is asking need access plzz help

My Asus Zenfone doesn't boot anymore and doesn't even allow me to factory reset it from the bootloader. How to force reset it??

I think the folder you extracted the rom must be in C:\ and have no spaces or symbols, e.g. C:\miuirom and not C:\miui rom or C:\miui_rom.

Your device is in locked bootloader, you need to unlock your bootloader first before flashing ane image

Hi,
I've installed an ota update and the device didn't boot... it is stuck in a bootloop....
When i try to flash via fastboot, it appears an error saying that the device is locked ant cennot erase...
via fastboot oem unlock i get the error message: Remote: oem unlock is not allowed

I tryed to flash TWRP with command fastboot flash recovery but the error is the same: remote: partition flashing is not allowed
Can anyone help me please??
I'm stuck on the bootloop i can't go to setting - developer - allow oem unlock option!!

Have you tried doing a Factory Reset from stock recovery?

This is a strange behavior, even if an OTA update corrupted the system for some reason, the phone should boot from the original slot.
Have you tried switching slots manually from fastboot ?

How can i do that?

Hello!
I've faced the exact same problem yesterday.
You need to force the phone to boot in EDL mode by opening the back cover and short circuit 2 pins as shown in THIS video.
After you have the phone in EDL and being detected by your PC (you need the correct drivers, you may get them on THIS thread by @CosmicDan), you may use MiFlash Tool to flash official PIE Rom, access developer options and enable oem unlock to be able to unlock your phone again.
If you wish to revert to Oreo, please use THIS guide.
Cheers!

Actually you have a recovery. You need to long press the power button and, afterwards (not at the same time), press the volume + button. You'll see that all options will appear.
