ZE500KL Can't access fastboot or recovery mode PLEASE HELP, URGENT - Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Please help, I need proffessional help.
Android Phone: ASUS Zenfone 2 Laser 5.0 (ROOTED)
Android Firmware: 5.0.2 Lollipop
Aim: To enter into Fastboot mode and Recovery Mode without problems
Situation: Recently installed TWRP Recovery in-app and through software, but when I try to enter in Fastboot Mode (HOLD POWER & VOLUMEUP) or even Recovery Mode (HOLD POWER & VOLUMEDOWN), I just end up in a hanged out ASUS Logo. I can't do anything except pulling out the battery myself and putting it back then booting the device through power button to boot it normally. I don't know if it's the problem with the model, or the phone's system itself, or it's just a bug, or a problem when I rooted my device through ADB.
(Note: When I rooted the device, I wasn't even able to see the blue "FASTBOOT MODE" when I tried it, I only saw the ASUS logo as well.)
For anyone who has any idea on what's going on with my device, please reply and help me. I really want to have the benefits of a rooted phone completly and I'm a new root user so I need assistance.

For anyone who has an idea on what I've done or on what should I do, please help me. Someone told me that I flashed the recovery and locked the bootloader, so it got damaged. If so, would Unlocking the Bootloader (from Wiki.CyanogenMod's Site) help my case?

I think I have "access" to TWRP recovery. However, I can only access it through booting it up from ADB. I used the command "adb reboot bootloader" to boot it to fastboot mode, however only the ASUS screen appears but I treated it as the fastboot mode itself. Then I checked if it was really on fastboot mode through "fastboot devices" and it showed my serial number. I can only enter into TWRP using "fastboot boot twrp.img" . I don't know if I already installed it because although I opened it, I can't do it from the phone (POWER+VOLUMEDOWN)

Ok now boot twrp and then flashamodified zip or cm13 and your phone should eork you dhould to have unlockrd bootloader

Hi to all, i'd re-open this 3d for the same problem. After months I'm trying to re-sleep my ZE500KL. It was in "can't load invalid boot image" loop. I tried to force recovery mode and (wrongly) force to update from update.zip the stock fw stored in the uSD.
Since this time I can't enter in recovery mode more but fastboot only. The problem is that, in spite of the USB drivers are installed, fastboot does not recognize any connected device.
I've run Win 10 pro with a zenbook ux333fn laptop and I remembered android 6 on the phone, the last time I saw it alive.
I've tried also to install twrp 3.1, with no positive results.
Anyone can suggest me any solving way?
Thanks to all

...anybody?

QFIL or AFT can be the solution.
I have a similar problem, a hard bricked Z00ED (ZE500KL) not able to get into fastboot or recovery.
after reading some thread here an there. that are Processor / Chipset specific flash tools that help flash bootloaders and repartition hard bricked device.
For mobiles with MediaTec devices, there is a tool called SP Flash Tool. I wasted a whole day with it. then understood that Z00ED (ZE500KL) has a Qualcomm Processor MSM8916
Therefore we need a Qualcomm Flasher here (QFIL )
But nos I am stuck with getting firmware for ZE500KL that can be used by QFIL tool, It should have a firehouse*.mbr file that is the programmer (dependent on CPU of the phone) and a rawprogram*.hex file that I don't know where to get from.

Thanks... It seems a bit less wild, but in any case no solving, yet

[Q] Hard bricked Nexus 7 32G 3g - cannot access adb, fastboot, only APX , please help

Hello guys,
yesterday a tried to flash custom recovery to my n7(2012) like i used to in the past.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recoveryCWM.img
flashing
success
fastboot reboot
And after it n7 was not able to boot, appears google logo a than starts to loading clockwork mod recovery and reboots.
I cant turn it off. Only if i hold volume up button it switches to APX mode.
So i installed APX drivers, downloaded nvflash and wheelie but i have no idea how to get blob.img file because im not able to connect via fastboot
Please could you anyone give me an advice.
Bootloader is unlocked so my warranty is gone i guess.
I will so much thanks full for any advice.
Thanks
If you can boot into bootloader, than flash a new recovery (stock, twrp) with fastboot.
If you can't, then send it to Asus, they are the only ones who can repair it.
( There is a tool called Flatline. It is nvflash for N7. The only problem is you need a backup of your device, since you can't use someone else's backup)

Need Help Unbricking!!!!!!

Hey guys! So my phone is bricked. Not sure what I did wrong. I tried out several roms and decided to stick with Exodus. When I flashed Exodus I forgot to flash Gapps and now phone stays stuck on boot screen and can't boot into recovery but can get into fastboot mode.
What I've done so far:
I've checked to makes sure bootloader is still unlocked and it is.
From fastboot I've re-flashed TWRP using the fastboot flash recovery twrp.img command and it says it flashes successfully.
However, I still remain stuck on boot screen and when I use the volume+ power button it won't boot in TWRP recovery.
Is there a fastboot firmware zip for the OnePlus 2 that I can flash via fastboot the way we could with the OnePlus One?
I've tried all three methods of unbricking described in this thread https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/mega-unbrick-guide-for-a-hard-bricked-oneplus-2.347607/
None of them have worked for me. First of all my driver does not come up as Qualcomm in device manager, it comes up as "RELINK HS-USB QDLOADER 9008." I have no idea what that's about. Secondly, when I run the Chinese recovery tool it does nothing, just sits there when I press start.
Helppppppppppp please
Try running "fastboot boot twrp.img" from fastboot.

Thanks for the reply! After some digging realized I was having some problems with my qualcomm driver and kept trying to install but stupid windows 8.1 was blocking it so I followed this guide and I am now unbricked. So for anyone who has the "Relink" instead of "Qualcomm" this is how to fix it and unbrick:

[Help] I cannot get my zenfone 2 into recovery mode.

I've tried everything I could find with a google search but I haven't found anybody with a similar problem. I cannot boot into recovery mode as every time I select recovery mode I get sent back to the fastboot screen. I can use normal boot and my phone starts up fine but choosing recovery mode just brings me through an endless loop of going to the fastboot screen. Anybody know a way around this?

It usually occurs simply because it cannot boot into recovery. This may be due to accidentally wiping the recovery partition, thus having no recovery to boot to at all, or that you flashed an incompatible recovery onto your device.
Fret not, just a few simple commands should get your phone back alive and kicking.
First, download the recovery.img (ZE550KL) at https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6QXDUz9wzc9bUZaOHJsTzBhcVk
Then, boot your device into recovery mode.
Once done, type the command, in order,
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot oem reboot-recovery
Do take note that you would need to have ADB tools installed, a reliable connection to your computer, ASUS drivers in order for your device to be detected, and some knowledge on where to place the recovery.img in order for the commands above to work. If you need any help, please feel free to ask. Also, since you did not state the variant of your device, I had put the ZE550KL recovery.img instead. If your device is of another variant, please inform me immediately and I will get the recovery.img up for you.

Thanks so much, this worked. I have a ze551ML but I had a stock recovery already on my drive. I've been trying to install the twrp recovery for the last two days but have been completely unable. Although the "fastboot oem reboot-recovery" failed as adb didn't recognize the OEM remote. Any idea why the most up to date twrp recovery has not worked in the least?

You need to unlock the bootloader first. There are plenty of guides online about how to do this, unofficial and officially. Also, there's a dedicated forum for your device variant, named "ASUS ZenFone 2"
This forum here is for the Laser variants.

Stuck on Bootloop & FirstAid kit won't help. Any Ideas? Please Help

Hello everyone!
Okay, so I'll try to keep it as short as possible but with the most information I can give ofc.
So here's what I did with my Oneplus 2:
- unlocked bootloader
- flashed custom recovery (twrp)
- flashed superSU.zip
- flashed xposed.zip
- used it for about half a year if not even longer
everything on Lollipop 5.1 stock rom so xposed would work.
Everything was fine but some day when I wanted to enter twrp recovery it didn't work. (I swear, this is the most illogical thing ever but I DID NOT CHANGE A THING!)
I tried to enter recovery via fastboot but that didn't work either.
So I reflashed latest TWRP recovery.img for OP2 via fastboot.
When I pressed power + vol. down to see if it'd work nothing happened.
When I tried to enter recovery when my system was booted via power button->restart->recovery my phone got stuck in a bootloop.
I had to go in fastboot mode to enter "fastboot continue" in order to get my phone booting normal again.
Then, one night when my phone was in my pocket it vibrated and got stuck in the bootloop again, even though it was booted into system and locked last time I used it (minutes before that).
I had no access to a computer at that moment so I had to wait for a few days.
Now when I boot my phone in fastboot mode and try to enter "fastboot continue" on my cmd nothing happens with my phone and cmd says "(command write failed (Unknown error))" even though "fastboot devices" shows that my device is connected properly.
I also tried:
- the FirstAidKit, copied the Win Files in my fastboot directory and started the firstaid.bat but it stops on "fastboot flash boot boot.img" (I waited for like two hours).
- a different USB port (USB 3 and USB 2)
I am kinda depending on my phone so yeah..
If someone knows how to fix this I would be very grateful.
Have a good day/night

Do you have a backup??
If yes, download the latest official OS from Oneplus and the stock recovery. Flash the stock recovery. Try rebooting into stock recovery. If it succeeds, wipe everything and flash OS via adb sideload.
Honestly, I can't guess what went wrong with your device. Maybe it could've been some app which crashed the entire system.

Same problem as with the FirstAidKit:
"fastboot devices" does display the device but "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" doesn't do anything (I waited for 1h just to make sure).
I'll try this Mega Unbrick Guide for A Hard Bricked OnePlus 2 next, even though I can get into fastboot but since it doesn't do s**t I'll have to give it a try. I mean, what's the worst thing that could happen? That my phone gets bricked?!
Haha.... hmm.
I'll keep the person(s) updated who care to know what's happening.

Asus Zenfone 3 (ZE520KL) Brick

Hi
I recently tried loading Lineage OS on my Asus Zenfone 3 (ZE520KL). Didnt get far though. Got stuck unlocking my bootloader via adb. As a result phone is no longer detected in adb. The phone is getting stuck at ASUS logo and I cant boot to recovery either. It does get detected by fastboot but nothing more. I have tried :-
(1) loading various ROMs downloaded from Asus website onto the microsd card
(2) using asus flashtool (various versions). The latest one says battery is -1% while the earlier version returns various errors including "frp request server log access is denied" and "failed to write partition"
(3) I have (seemingly) been successful at pushing recovery and boot images via fastboot but the phone still wouldn't go past the Asus logo when rebooted
Read a lot of threads but not much seems to be working.
Help please !
Thanks
For what its worth, I ran the 'fastboot getvar all' command and this is what I got. Seems to be a truncated run.
Hello,
I have the same problem as you, I only have access to fastboot mode and can't access to recovery mode. Have you find a solution ?
Thanks.
How did u solve the problem?
