Hello Friends, I just upgraded my Zenfone 3 ze520kl to Nougat, but i prefer Marshmallow i try from recovery mode to flash Marshmallow, it shows error and the installation aborted. Can any one help . Thanks.
What error does it show?
Error with some numbers follows by 'install aborted'. I unable remember the error numbers. I did three times all the time with same remark.Thanks.
That's not very helpful. Can you try it again and tell us exactly what it says?
Hi,
I downgraded a few days ago, here's an overview of the steps.
WARNING, this requires a factory reset so you will lose the data on the phone, so make sure you have backups before you proceed. You do this at your own risk and I am not responsible for any damages.
I assume you have adb / drivers all configured and know to how use them.
1) download firmware file http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZE520KL/UL-ASUS_Z017D_1-WW-13.20.10.152-user.zip and save to SD card / insert card in phone.
2) download recovery and boot img files for Z017D_WW_13.20.10.152
- https://mega.nz/#F!ok0V0RIA!5WKtHe98opzjVI3NPbM7Ww
- under the folder Z017D_WW_13.20.10.152
3) Go to fastboot mode (power + vol up)
- flash recovery.img (command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)
- flash boot.img (command: fastboot flash boot boot.img)
4) reboot to recovery (power + vol down)
5) install update form micro sd card.
set the file UL-ASUS_Z017D_1-WW-13.20.10.152-user.zip that you saved earlier
6) wipe cache
7) factory reset
If you don't do a factory reset and reboot, Android pretty much crashes on multiple processes on start up, it is unusable.
Regards,
TK

Warning- No file-contexts. This package is for "ww-phone" devices, this is a E:error in /side load/ package.zip (status 7) Installation aborted.
Same thing happened to me as well. I just went ahead to flash the RAW file (http://www.asus-zenfone.com/2016/12/asus-zenfone-3-raw-firmware-and-asus.html) and updated the software to the latest marshmallow update, followed by a factory reset.
If we Downgrade
Then we get update in future yes or no??
Sorry for bad English??
Yes.

It`s very useful for for rooting and reflashing recovery, and You will see if there is any error.
1. Download RootTattoo1Click_Recovery_2010-03-18_Mvx.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5835675&postcount=1
2. Extract rtattoo folder to C:/

This is a problem I had once too and I was like "OMG I [email protected] up my phone!!!" but it's not a big deal fixing it at all. Just go to huaweidevice.com download official ICS from there and then format your sd card. Open the rar file you downloaded and copy the dload folder that you will find in folder step 1. Put your sd card on your phone, connect it to your charger and press vol + vol- and power button at the same time. When update complete(step one takes 4-5 seconds) format your sd card again and do the same with step 2 and step 3. Step 2 takes about 5 minutes so no need to worry. Let the recovery wipe cache when you finish step 3 and then it will reboot 2-3 times. Then go to official ICS thread by pikachukaki and unlock pink screen. Through pink screen replace the recovery.img with the recovery made by ivan or geno and then reboot your phone. Flash a custom rom of your liking doing wipe cache, format factory reset, wipe dalvik, format system and install zip from sd card. PROFIT :good:
Thank you my phone worked fine . Only step2 is enough. But to unlock pinkscreen only pow+vol++vol- is enough or anything more to do. Coz my pc is not detecting any media in pinkscreen.pls post the link if u have:thumbup:

Hi everybody, i soft bricked my lovely Nova, here is the situatiuon :
- I tried to update the phone with the Emui 5 OTA zip but the phone turned off and now won't boot anymore
- When i try to boot normaly, it show the Huawei eRecovery and fail to recover the phone
- I can boot on fastboot mode / rescue mode
- I have TWRP installed and can boot on it but when i try to flash the can-L11c432.zip supplied by MORPH, it says "Failed to mount '/cust'" and stops here.
I really don't know what to do, moreover i lost the backup i made with TWRP.
If someone can help me i'll offer him a meal (paypal)
Sorry for my bad english and have a nice day everyone.
Hi Keezle,
here is the recovery.img from the EMUI5 Beta Update. Flash it with fastboot and apply the update once again (Boot with Power + Vol down + Vol up) After the Update is complete make a full wipe in the stock recovery.
You need a external SD Card with the dload folder thats include the Update.

I came to a similar situation. The CUST supplied by Morph seems not to be flashable. Untick the CUST when flashing the NANDROID. It will go through the process and the phone will eventually boot again.

Si, i put the C432B320 update.zip in dload folder on an external SD Card, i flashed the Emui 5 beta update recovery successfully, but when i boot with Power + Vol down + Vol up it starts the installation and stops at 5% saying "Software install failed !". Should i use another update.zip file ?
Thank you MORPH

Maybe unpack the C432B320 until you have an update.app in dload folder. I did that and flashed the ROM. The first try was a failure and I had to restore a NANDROID (bootloop). Currently, I'm trying to flash it again but now with the EMUI5 recovery morph has supplied.

Hello. I tried downgrading from the latest ASUS firmware to Android 6.0.1
I used this tutorial to install the raw firmware: http://www.asus-zenfone.com/2016/12/asus-zenfone-3-raw-firmware-and-asus.html
Went all the way to the last step when the app hanged. ASUS Flash tool went all the way saying
Code:
Run flash image script ...
It was hanged there. And as per this video, went all the way to the end where it showed the "code bar" on the right (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8xg7A-P7Ak)
This is when the "Android" uninstalled driver showed up in Windows. This is under "Other devices - Android". I tried updating this driver using the ASUS_Android_USB_drivers_for_Windows found here: https://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-3-ZE552KL/HelpDesk_Download/ but it wouldn't install the drivers.
Note that I used these ASUS USB drivers to get the ASUS ADB Interface installed. As per the tutorial I showed in the very first paragraph, I never got the "ASUS Android Bootloader Interface". This is what I think this "Other devices - Android" is found under Computer - Manager - Device Manager.
Most tutorials on the internet shows that the "ASUS Android Bootloader Interface" should be installed using these drivers found on ASUS website, the ASUS_Android_USB_drivers_for_Windows.
Now of course because I unplugged the phone, it will continously stay on the Android splashpage showing the loading circle infinitely.
As a last attempt I tried installing the "stock", not "raw" firmware (the one I wanted to install WW_13.16.5.49 but ASUS would not let you downgrade using the recovery "power+volume down" and using "Apply update from microSD card". It would give the
Code:
Warning- No file-contexts. This package is for "ww-phone" devices, this is a E:error in /side load/ package.zip (status 7) Installation aborted.
)
Well, after it brinked, I tried it again and this time it DID install WW_V13.16.5.49. Was succesfull. But after the ASUS splashscreen it's still stuck in the booting process.
I am very sorry if my post is convoluted but I tried explaining everything I did. Any way to un-brink it? I think maybe if I figure out how to properly install the ASUS Android Bootloader Interface, I can try again ASUS Flash tool and install the raw image and maybe that will fix it?
Please help. Any questions if my thread is too confusing, please let me know and I will answer it. I can't even turn off the phone. While it's stuck into the load splash screen, if I press the power button it just restarts, not turn off.
I still have access to fastboot (pwr + volume up) or recovery (pwr + volume down)
EDIT: Phone won't get recognized anymore in ASUS Flash Tools. Serial number won't show up to select
Factory reset and delete cache/dalvik through recovery and post back. It'll take 5-10min to boot up after that. You should always delete cache/dalvik after flashing.

Thank you, this actually worked!!
Aaaand, it's actually on the version 13.16.5.49!!!! THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED!
So apparently by brinking my latest nougat 7.0 update from ASUS via the ASUS Flash Tool trying to flash the .RAW 13.20.10.137, the standard recovery system (power+volume down) allowed me to install the 13.16.5.49 version. Then I assume remnants files didn't allow to properly boot, and your idea to wipe cache and factory reset fixed that!
What is so great is that I was scared that because the .RAW firmware was newer than the version I needed (13.16.5.49), I wouldn't have been able to install it. It was the same problem initially, when I tried to install 13.16.5.49 directly via recovery over the latest nougat 7.0 version from ASUS, but it was giving me
Code:
Warning- No file-contexts. This package is for "ww-phone" devices, this is a E:error in /side load/ package.zip (status 7) Installation aborted.
I think this error was due to the fact that ASUS won't allow older firmwares to be installed over newer ones, as per their webpage
https://www.asus.com/support/faq/1009748
Code:
You can not change the SKU from one to another, e.g., WW -> TW, and also can not downgrade your firmware, e.g., V2.20.40.13 -> V2.19.40.18
So in the end, what allowed the 13.16.5.49 stock firmware to be succesfully installed? The installer not detecting a proper firmware anymore because of the damaged update due to ASUS Flash Tools hanging because my computer won't install ASUS Android Bootloader Interface?
Glad you got it going :good:
I have twrp flashed on my phone, and so cant get the oreo update. The phone had been stuck in the bootloop recently, and the guy at the service centre flashed the first available version of the firmware, but how he did it without removing the custom recovery, i dunno. So now i need the boot.img for this firmware: (WW_Phone-13.16.5.33). Thanks in advance.

It says the stock firmware is for nougat, i myself am currently running marshmallow. I had tried to flash nougat through the custom recovery, ( when the thing was stuck in a bootloop) and it said something like only versions upto *some serial no.* can be updated.
Anyway, thanks for the links, will try it.:good:

2) Go to fastboot mode (power + vol up)
- flash recovery.img (command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)
- flash boot.img (command: fastboot flash boot boot.img)
3) reboot to recovery (power + vol down)
4) install update form micro sd card. set the file UL-ASUS_Z017D_1-WW-13.16.5.33-user.zip that you saved earlier
