[FIX] Asus Zenfone 2 Laser ZE550KL Marshmallow update problem, failed to mount /asdf

I have good experience with other phones but this is my first time working with ZE550KL.
So I took my uncle's phone and he asked me to update his phone to the latest firmware to get the VoLTE feature.
He is was on ZE550KL_WW_21.40.1220.1708 which is Marshmallow of the ZEN UI.
I have downloaded the latest firmware from the ASUS website but I couldn't update it because the recovery which came with the marshmallow update is broken.
These are the errors I got

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Here is what I did, and hope this works for everyone.
Hoping that you already went and searched about the problem over the internet.
These are the things you need to download :
ADB and fastboot
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0aDjdU4gTwZZW1HUHhqWnEteXM/view
Recovery image file
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0aDjdU4gTwZa1MyUmVPN3BhQjQ
Latest firmware:
https://www.asus.com/in/support/Download/39/1/0/22/ZROQURlyupei1ZQz/32/
1. Download the adb and fastboot drivers. Download the latest firmware and copy it onto your internal storage.
2. Boot into the bootloader.
3. Download the recovery image and paste it into the adb folder.
4. Now type the following command.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
5. This step is very important.
Now, all you have to do is hold the power button and the volume down button to boot into the installed recovery.
Remember that if you restart your phone after step 4, your old recovery(which does not work) will still be there.
6. Now select update from sdcard and select the zip file of the latest firmware you downloaded.
7. It will take at least 10 minutes to install, don't panic if you think the screen froze.
I hope this solves the issues many users are facing.
Feel free to ask questions, I will be very happy to answer.
The recovery we installed is the recovery of Android Lollipop version of the Zen UI ROM.

Thanks. It worked. The only difference is that after flashing the old recovery, my SD card was showing blank. So i selected the adb sideload option and flashed the new build.. Thanks for your guide.

Thanks but few doubts remain. The recovery you used is from Lollipop`s 1.17.40.1503 right?
Can we not do this by installing a temporary recovery image (twrp)?
I have also read elsewhere ( https://devs-lab.com/e-unable-to-mount-asdf-recovery-error-solved.html ) that you would need the boot image too. But your instructions are way too easier and easy to follow. Why don't you use boot image?
If we are using the boot image then which version of it should we use?

Before I tried any of this... First thing I did was boot TWRP and install the lastest firmware.
But I couldn't do so because TWRP doesn't let you flash .img files.
And for the best result it is always better for you to use the official recovery to flash an official firmware.
Because ASUS f***ed up, I needed to install the previous version of the recovery to flash the firmware.
And I'm very happy that my guide worked for you.
Don't forget to give thanks. :laugh:

I haven't tried it yet. So you didn't tamper with boot.img at all. Right?
Also as previously asked what's the build number from which you extracted the recovery.img? Is it from .1503?
My current build is .1708 same as what you worked on. And will data get erased during this process?

How can I boot into the bootloader? is it by unlocking it? or is there any other non-invasive way?
Update: I installed as per your instructions. Device shows "Optimizing app 5 of 51".
Thank you.

Thank you
Thank you sir, this helped me a lot.

recovery link is asking need access plzz help

My Asus Zenfone doesn't boot anymore and doesn't even allow me to factory reset it from the bootloader. How to force reset it??

Video tutorial for rooting redmi 4/4x

I have unlocked my phone recently. And then I downloaded TWRP from "twrp.me" for my Redmi 4X. And I tried to flash it through adb and fastboot. And I successfully flashed. But unfortunately my phone doesn't boot to TWRP recovery except commanding through cmd "fastboot boot recovery.img". When I try to boot to recovery mode with volume up + power button, the stock recovery comes up. How can I fix this?

Thanks buddy

i was using twrp 3.0 but as i installed latest 3.1.1 it is encrypted and asking for password . Files are also not properly flashing . System mount unmount error etc. I did factory format , data wipes and also flashed recovery using fastboot but nothing happened but when i reverted back to twrp 3.0 all the problems were solved .

Same for me, went back to 3.0.3.0, too, because of the encryption problem. This might be solved (not testet yet):

Edit: just upgraded to "TWRP 3.1.0-1 Santoni.img" (see dl-link above) which runs without any problem so far...

Use TWRP 3.1.0..
DON'T use the newest 3.1.1.0... it's faulty as sh*te

Why i am not able to boot into recovery through advanced power option? Even i tried through power and volume up buttons but failed.... Please help me....

volumeup+volumedown+power=twrp recovery
Or use the twrp app to boot into recovery, BUT do not twrp update!! It'll update to the sh*te 3.1.1 version!

You should flash Gionee_A1_0301_T7207_MT6755_02052018 version stock rom using sp flash tool first then root using MAGISK not super su .. as all know MAGISK is latest root solution and bypasses google safety net..

Bricked Zenfone 3 ZE552KL - This package is for "WW_Phone" device. This is a ""
I'm handling a bricked Zenfone 3 ZE552KL WW model, but I am unable to flash the stock rom back into the device.
For context, this device has never been unlocked, rooted, and always worked under its original factory Android. As told by the owner, he received an OTA update notification last week and confirmed all prompts to initiate the update. As instructed, he plugged the device to its original charger, left the update running and went by with his day doing other stuff. When he returned, the device was completely OFF with 0% battery. We figured the charging cable disconnected due to a bad connector endpoint, and the phone ran out of juice while the update was running!
The result is a bricked Zenfone unable to boot beyond the ASUS logo. It keeps crashing and gets into a boot loop.
I have tried most of the basic tech support I can give him.
I have downloaded a fresh copy of the official ZE522KL firmware from the ASUS website.
I can boot the phone into recovery, which is still the original ASUS recovery. But as I try to flash the firmware, I get this lovely error message:
{

ERROR: This package is for "WW_Phone" device. This is a "".
I know for a fact this is a WW_Phone device because when I try to flash the JP firmware, the error message is different.
ERROR: This package is for "JP_Phone" device. This is a "WW_Phone".
Already tried "Wipe data/factory reset" and "Wipe cache partition" from the recovery menu, but that didn't help.
Already tried pushing the firmware via "adb sideload" and placing it in a SD card. Those didn't help either.
I am also willing to flash a community ROM, like LineageOS or Mokee, but I first need to unlock the bootloader. I'm running adb and fastboot from Linux, and I can't find a descent tool to unlock using Linux is proving to be a real pain. Every tool seems to be made for Windows only.
So, I'm resorting to anyone here, hoping anyone could give me a light before we send this phone directly to ASUS tech support, not available in our region (we'll need to ship it to another city).
Anything I can try before that? I'm running out of ideas.
Best regards and thanks in advance for any help.

Flash the latest stock recovery thru fastboot and then flash the latest raw firmware.
Otherwise try launching, not flashing, twrp thru fastboot and then flash any raw firmware with the updater script edited.

Hey juliohm,
Just follow these steps & your device will operate normally
1) Download and install ASUS Flash Tool :
2) Download Latest Oreo RAW
ZE520KL:
ZE552KL:
3) Enter Fastboot Mode (Power + Volume Up)
4) Open ASUS Flash Tool
5) Select device & select firmware (select YES on wipe data tab too)
6) Connect phone to PC
7) Hit Start and wait 10-15 minutes (ignore the error 5 [FRP])
MOD EDIT: PAY-PER-CLICK LINKS REMOVED

Thank you, Saktis_STi. But these are Windows tools and I'm running Ubuntu on my local system. No Linux tools available for this task?

Try unlocking your bootloader using the unofficial way located in the Zenfone 3 forum. It should be doable because you only have to boot into your bootloader. You can then flash a custom recovery, such as TWRP, and go in and wipe data, cache + dalvik, and then install a custom ROM. In your case, it looks like the stock recovery can't detect the device model (WW_Phone), so it's most likely that something is wrong with the system partition.

No need. Flash RAW firmware is enough.

Just a quick follow up.
The owner decided to take it a local assist shop. I don't know what method they used, but they managed to reflash the stock firmware back into the device, and it's working fine again.
Thank you all for the tips. If this was my own device, I would be tinkering a lot more. But the owner decided to play safe and pay for repair in some authorized assistence shop.
Best regards all!

It is little buggy. I played pubg very smooth and animation and rom is also smooth.

Did you tried to install this or any other GSI with Dynamic System Updates?

Not yet

Does this works with PE only or Evolution X will work?

What are the bugs? Can it be used daily or are there too many bugs?

I can't find "GMS" apk..
LInk please?

Latest erfan GSI Pixel Android 11 works flawlessly.
Using it for few minutes checking what doesn't work. None so far except VOLTE/Vowifi which is GSI specific

Does this GSI support DSU (dynamic system update)??

Yes

I used only with PE FE

I'm getting mi a2 booting to fastboot after install latest magisk canary and can't boots to android

Is it worth using as a daily driver considering the useful features in Android 11?
Or is it better to stay in PE rom?
