Sorry, if you have the problem yet you can try to connect your phone in fastboot mode (having all drivers ok) and write "fastboot devices", if your device appears download the twrp modified of the link of the instructions to install OOS 3 (https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/installation-instructions-faqs-oxygenos-3-0-0.439108), open cmd in the download folder (shift + right mouse -> open cmd here) and write "fastboot flash recoery recovery.img". This did not work for me, but I tried it with an toher recovery. I wish you solve the problem soon!

You need to boot.img from stock rom v 13.10.10.34.
Stock rom you can download from Asus website and then extract boot.img from this stock rom.

I don't understand what your problem.
For Marshmallow use this TWRP.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7F3ZXr565GkY28yUjhfRkd5MUk/view?usp=drivesdk
Another possibility how to fix your phone is flash stock rom from stock recovery. It's the easiest way.

Well, i can feel some doubt in your post...but h*ll yeah! I'm currently facing the same problem; where flashing stock rom, downloaded from their site, using their stock recovery, adb, and adb sideload....
the rom flashes successfully, but still boots with the same error...To be frank, i'm fed up...and almost about giving up on this phone...
-i believe i'll give it another shot this very night, trying different methods...funny ones though; if and when they work, i will definitely update my post again... my phone version is Z00ED, in case anybody cares to know -
UPDATE:
=======
Aaaaaanyway, I downloaded 2 kinds of stock roms from the Asus official site;
1. UL-ASUS_Z00E-WW-13.1010.1612.53-user (the latest:- M) and...
2. UL-ASUS_Z00E-WW-12.8.5.222-user (and older version:- actually, the pre-installed version)
after flashing the first one over and over again; after and before wiping my phone and cache over and over again, NOTHING HAPPENED; no change!!! still kept throwing back the error message.
So I decided to flash the second one, and for a split second, I was happy cos the error had disappear...only for me to wait for eternity and in vain for the phone to boot (that is, even if it could). suddenly, I realized what had happen....the phone couldn't boot pass the ASUS logo, neither could it load recovery again (as it used to). It only boots into ADB, but of course, that will require USB DEBUG MODE to be ON to be able for the phone to be detected through ADB (which is far from possible due to the numerous wipes I performed).
CURRENT SITUATION: I can't ADB, I can't get into recovery, and I'm stacked with the logo at boot......when the phone is completely turned off and placed on charge, the battery shows an empty battery with the loading (status) sign (but it charges, even without the OS being able to display the process).
Don't know whether anyone is facing same, or I can start a new thread with this? and I need help before taking it to a 3rd party repairs (since we don't hv Asus customer care in our country yet).
Will be glad to find help.
PS: The computer still detects the phone as an ADB Android device, and to me, that's a beacon of hope.

download factory image maker :- https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BxGRG9YXw62rUWNLMjdNaGt1a2s
method 1
extract the fast boot firmware and factory image maker in same folder. then follow these steps.
put your phone in fast-boot mode and type fastboot -i 0x1ebf oem unlock (will unlock your bootloader)
and now find flash_all.bat file in the folder where you extracted all files and run as admin. let the process finish you would be back at stock firmware with no boot loops.
if you don't want to go to factory image then
method 2
boot your phone in fastboot and type
fastboot -i 0x1ebf oem lock (to lock your bootloader)
fastboot -i 0x1ebf oem unlock (to unlock your boot loader) as you used yuware or something that might created problem in bootloader so follow both.
fastboot -i 0x1ebf flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
and let it flash recovery then boot into recovery go to advance wipe format data type yes and swipe, install any custom rom and flash gapps done.
if you face still boot loops follow method 1 and flash roms later.

Like i said your device is soft bricked try methods i suggested, but recovery should work fine press vol up+ vol down+power button to boot into recovery you would be able to use TWRP. if not try to flash recovery again as i said yuware might have introduced some bugs install as i suggested. your device stuck at boot loop has nothing to do with recovery not working.

Are you mentioning that your device only boots to fastboot now? If you press 'start', does that boot to system or not?
Which stock ROM did you flash, and can you confirm if the flash worked? How did your device brick in the first place?

As siddhesh9146 had mentioned, the Athene stock ROM cannot be flashed in stock recovery, it is not a flashable zip file. You need a computer and ADB set up, extract the zip on your computer and use the flashing commands in the fastboot ROM thread to flash a stock ROM.
Until you've flashed the stock ROM, I'm not even sure if you have stock recovery, or a stock system on your device. The supplied blank flash does not appear to have a functioning recovery included with it.

So, you booted your device to the bootloader screen (not to recovery), connected your device to your computer, and you've flashed using the OEM_flash script, and yet you're unable to reboot to recovery?
Sounds like your stock ROM flash did not work the first time, leaving you without a recovery or a system. Try the following just to confirm:
1) Ensure your adb folder contains the extracted NPJS25.93-14-8 stock ROM (all the files), should be about 2 GB for the stock ROM. Also confirm that the OEM flash script is in the same location (so your adb folder should have the stock ROM, the flash script and the adb and fastboot.exe and adb.dlls)
2)Reboot your device to the bootloader (power down, then press the power and volume down keys to boot to bootloader) and connect your device to your computer.
3)In the adb terminal, type 'fastboot devices', without the quotes. If communicating, you should see your device respond with its serial number.
4)If communicating, run the OEM flash script again.
5)If your device does not boot properly, then reboot to bootloader.
5a)Copy each of the commands from the script (you can open the script in a text editor) and paste them in the adb terminal window and run each one by pressing Enter on your keyboard. You should see the command report [OKAY] if it's flashed. Any errors, let us know, that might point more accurately to what might be going on.
As an aside, this is one of the reasons why downgrading isn't a good idea....

"soft-brick" on Essential Phone PH-1

Originally posted by: Azpre
Hello
A while ago, I tried to root my Essential Phone using magisk. I unlocked the bootloader, flashed twrp, but when I tried to install the magisk zip file, it failed, and I was stuck in a bootloop.
Easy problem to solve right? I wiped everything from my phone (including the ROM), downloaded a stock ROM (.ZIP file, and I think that’s what ****ed everything up) and when I tried to install it, it failed once again. Therefore, I downloaded another stock ROM file (this time as a .img file) and tried to installed it.
But what I ended up doing, was installing some other .img file as the boot image (on twrp), and after that, my phone kept restarting endlessly. I couldn’t access the recovery mode (if I tried to press the vol down + start buttons, or just the start button, the process would repeat, so I leaved my phone there until it run out of battery, now its off).
I was despaired and tried to search every inch of the internet for a solution, and obviously, I could not find it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks for your attention.
(Im not sure if this is really a soft brick, I named this thread wit my basic knowlage, sorry if Im wrong)

Use
fastboot unlock_critical
Then flash your full stock formware to both slots
You can get in the bootloader right?

From my understanding ... After you get the bootloader unlocked and the critical partition as the poster above stated. Pretty sure, Magisk, when booted into the android OS should be installed.. After that you can patch the boot image(to include root) without root! And then, fastboot flash boot (path/to/boot.img).
For not being able to boot into TWRP .... Did you use the command fastboot boot twrp.img? Or fastboot flash recovery twrp.img ?
If you used the boot command - TWRP will not stick.
If you used the flash command and cannot access TWRP, IDK, you may be on the wrong partition. I personally had a bit of difficulty with there being two partitions. Just made it a bit confusing...
As the above poster asked, .... Are you able to get to the bootloader? If so, I don't think all is lost... I'm thinking you'll just have to do some fastboot commands again, like, fastboot boot TWRP.img . Then you should be able to just press the volume a time or two to boot to recovery.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot unlock_critical
fastboot: usage: unknown command unlock_critical

oh my god Im such a dumbass, sorry

I had this problem tonight also. In my case I suspect it had to do with the install of magisk in which I checked both boxes and patched the bootloader. on reboot I was stuck on boot. Just wanted to add my solution. I got the pie back to stock zip here https://forum.xda-developers.com/essential-phone/development/stock-7-1-1-nmj20d-t3701681 then I put it into the adb folder and ran the flashall.bat script. I tried the no wipe one and it saved my information. very happy I didnt have to resetup my phone in the end.
