Rooted ZE551ML pre-image - ZenFone 2 General

I've follow instrucctions from this site to flash rooted pre-image to my phone:
http://www.asus-zenfone.com/2015/04/asus-zenfone-2-pre-root-systemimg.html
But no luck, I'm stucked after enter "flash system system.img" get <waiting for device> for ever, any idea how to continue?

Did you allow adb device on your phone. Did you install driver?

Yes I did, I did "adb devices" and returns my phone serial number.

Dumb question, did you reboot into bootloader?

Thanks for your help, but I did it, and get this message: "target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes"

U in Windows?

Yes, window 8.1
Sent from my ASUS_Z00AD using XDA Free mobile app

I did it on Linux but shouldn't be any different. Just put phone on bootloader mode, extract image to platform tools Folder and fastboot flash system system.img

Just wait a few minutes, then the file will begin to transfer with log like this:
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
erasing "system"...
OKAY [ 6.014S]
sending sparse 'system' <524257 KB>
OKAY [528.321S]
sending sparse 'system'.....
............
It's a long process (maybe because I doesn't use the original cable by ASUS).

Thanks TieuphongDN,
Whe I got the the message "target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes" I thought that something was wrong, I wait as you told, and could flash the rom, thanks for your help

I was able to successfully root and update firmware from CN to WW using that tutorial and this thread too. Thank you!

Nope, still working on that but I'm a novice at best at this so I'll keep trying things as new methods come out. H+ is more than sufficient now for the most part though.

FAILED (remote: Permission denied!)

Hi guys,
I need some help, I'm rooted running on the stock rom.
I was running the 6.0 L and decided to update to 6.0.1 vie fastboot.
I followed this guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928) section 10- and did the exact same thing.
Every thing was flashing fine till I reached system.img and this is what I get.
C:\SDK\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\6.0.1>fastboot flash sysytem C:\SDK\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\6.0.1\system.img
target reported max download size of 494927872 bytes
sending sparse 'sysytem' (463062 KB)...
OKAY [ 10.395s]
writing 'sysytem'...
FAILED (remote: Permission denied!)
finished. total time: 10.410s
I did not flash the recovery because it says it's optional. I proceeded with the vendor and rebooted the device. When the device starts I get a pop up saying : There's an internal problem with your device. Contact your manufacture for details.
In the setting im still on 6.0 L build but bootloader and radios are on the latest firmware.
any suggestions?
Thanks
I did some search and couldn't find a decent answer.
If this is copy/paste directly from Terminal, then you misspelled "system" in your initial command:
C:\SDK\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\6.0.1>fastboot flash sysytem C:\SDK\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\6.0.1\system.img
target reported max download size of 494927872 bytes

Notice the bold, the command is looking for "sysytem" which does not exist. You'll be good to go, if the typo is removed.

Correct, as long as you flashed the proper bootloader and radio. Just keep it all matching and you should be set. I try to avoid doing phone tinkering at night lol just never feel like troubleshooting at that time if I mess up.

My best guess would be if you have Jump just tell T-Mobile you updated your device and the update bricked it. It's worth a shot.

I would definitely try the LGup method via download/firmware mode. I've used it before to save my behind. Make sure you come from a completely powered off state. Hang in there bud.

git bash for what
@abuawaahed
Try this command..
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery xxxx.img
fastboot reboot bootloader
Their select recovery and boot to recovery mod..
If this not helps you... Please use toolkit..
Also it's better to ask in Question and answer thread...

Used gitbash terminal to use the fastboot command to flash recovery.

Have you unlocked bootloader.....
If yes change USB port/cable may help you...
Also check that you've enabled usb debugging in developer option....
And which version you are using adb&fastboot setup and drivers? Try different versions Adb setup 1.4.3 example.

Download the latest Platform Tools package directly from Google and try with these: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
Also indeed make sure that you have "checked" if you have properly unlocked your bootloader (follow the directions here

No it's not. It's something that you are doing wrong or your fastboot executable is too old or something. Works fine in OOS 4.5
just update to latest fastboot/adb package and flashing should be fine.

adb-setup-1.4.3 installed
I had the exact same issue, my main rig is on the latest update of windows so the adb minimal drivers couldn't install properly (windows problem)
so tried to do this on my laptop (not on the latest update) and was able to install the drivers.
Now when it came to flashing the recovery - I kept getting the same error as you.
To fix this I tried a different USB port (2.0) and it worked.
Give it a try, should work now.

Bootloop PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey everyone, I've spent the last 5 hours trying to fix my phone and I'm not getting anywhere.
It gets to the second part of the starting up process, where it makes the sound as well and it just keeps glowing over and over.
I'm able to access the recovery mode, I've already tried clearing the partition cache & I've also done a factory reset.
I've tried flashing recovery.img & boot.img from B170 which I read somewhere, I've done that successfully but it doesn't seem to do anything.
I had this before and I fixed it by flashing system.img but for some reason it keeps giving me an error when I try to do it now: "error: cannot load 'system.img'"
Also flashing the bootloader doesn't seem to work:
"C:\Users\Leron\Desktop>fastboot flash bootloader twrp-2.8.7.1-p8.img
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
sending 'bootloader' (25880 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.547s]
writing 'bootloader'...
FAILED (remote: partition does not exist)"
I've read something about buying a card adapter but as I said, I have no money...
I tried to root my phone, bad f***ing move because for some reason it's impossible on the Huawei P8, excuse my bad language but im extremely frustrated i should have never done this. any help is welcome
thanks

Big mistake, no wonder it won't flash.
TWRP is NOT a bootloader but is a recovery, so therefore the correct fastboot command is:-
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
The P8 is quite easily rooted see here:-

and here:-
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p8/how-to/rooting-huawei-p8-marshmallow-emui4-0-1-t3431249
Oh my bad haha.
I fixed it using SRKToolHuawei, which is very useful. I'm very new to this so that's why I screwed up so bad lol
Thanks for the help though. I'll check out the links you sent me and try to root again. Hopefully this time I won't break my phone lmao.

I just asked because the logs show that your LAF partition isn't flashing and from what I've been reading so far about the LAF partition is that it is a very fragile thing.
Have you tried a factory kdz with LGUP?

now ,iwant to konw how to get it into a system
Find stock.kdz to flash using LGUP, reflash TWRP using fast boot commands. Should boot correctly after stock .kdz is applied. Once confirmed your phone works correctly.. Boot into TWRP factory reset, and wipe partition, then attempt to flash your choice of custom ROM.
