ZE551KL - Z00TD - Unable to install stock firmware - Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just got a new ZE551KL - Z00TD. I planned on unlocking the bootloader, rooting, and installing CM13.
The phone came with Marshmallow. I found out that the Asus bootloader unlock app will not work with MM. So I wiped the phone and tried to downgrade to LP.
I have tried to install two different ASUS firmwares via recovery:
UL-Z00T-WW-1.15.40.639-user.zip
UL-Z00T-WW-1.17.40.1531-user.zip
Every time I get the same error:
Installing update...
Device image SKU:
WW
OTA image SKU: WW
This package is for "Z00T" devices; this is a "Z00L".
E:Error in /sideload/package.zip (Status 7)
E: fota_return_code 409
nstallation aborted.
This error doesn't make any sense. The phone is a Z00TD. The label under the battery confirms this. This is the only mention of this error that I could find via google:
asus .com/zentalk/thread-96133-1-1.html
Any help would be much appreciated.

Zenfone Selfie (zd551kl) weird problems

so i have a new zenfone selfie bought in china, so from the first day i noticed that headphones are not recognized, i read that this problem could be the firmware version so i tried to update via OTA, but no firmwares were available so i went to ASUS website to verify and in fact there is a newer firmware than what my phone has.
So i tried to manually download and update but when i unpluged the phone or restart it, it doesn't recognize the new firmware, so next step was trying to update it through adb.
in the phone settings it says that i have WW_21.40.0.1877_20160903 firmware so it's a WW sku firmware so everything i tried is with WW firmware updates and when i tried updating it with adb sideload it says "cannot read" so i was stuck until i tried a CN version firmware with adb sideload and FINALLY! something happened it started updating until it aborted installation, here is what the screen says.
since i can't post a picture i'll write exactly what the screenshot says
Supported API: 3
Now send the package you want to apply
to the device with "adb sideload <filename>"...
