Phone completely bricked - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone !
Yesterday, I wanted to wipe cache for some reasons, and I stupidly restarted the phone while formatting cache.
Result :
-A bootloop at the firt restart, then a "Error !"
-Can't acces Recovery mode, "Error !". I tried power button+volum up, don't work.
-ADB don't work anymore, I can't see the phone via adb devices
The only thing I can do is execute fastboot commands in Windows. I successfully made a tethered TWRP recovery, but I seriously don't know what to do from here. I tried flahsing a ROM, but it didn't worked (still have Error !).
I tried install permanent TWRP (unofficial), but I can't acces it. Probably because my bootloader is locked.
So... what should I do ?

Fastboot format cache should do the trick.

I tried it.
Still don't start correctly, don't forget that I did some **** to try to fix it :s
The ROM is probably also damaged...
EDIT : Now it don't show the Error ! anymore, it always return to fastboot mode...

After formating cache you should've been able to get into recovery mode, if not, download recovery image from here then:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash fastboot droidboot.img
You can always sideload stock roms from there.

I get this :
">fastboot flash F:\recovery.img
unknown partition 'F:\recovery.img'
error: cannot determine image filename for 'F:\recovery.img'"
EDIT : oh **** sorry i misswrited the command é_è
EDIT 2 : THANKS ! I have acces to normal recovery. Can you tell me what should I do now ? (seriously don't want to make everything goes brick again ^^')

Download stock ROM from Asus site, and then sideload the ROM in recovery mode. Follow 3.2) Flashing Zenfone 2 via ADB in this thread.

Sideload with "Apply update from ADB" ?
The stock ROM is a zip of about 1.1GB ? I heard that their were update only package and full firmware ?

That zip file is a full firmware.

Thanks !
I did it and I have now the stock firmware installed correctly !

I have the same problem... But there is no option to fastboot format cache... only normal boot, power off, recovery mode... can't enter recovery mode either...

You need to follow the steps in this thread to install drivers and adb package first. Fast boot firmat cache is the command that you should type in on your PC.

Just a thought but instead of trying to install anything through adb why not instal a pre-rooted rom img through fastboot too. You can always wipe out root with the next OTA...

I have already wipe cache and now boots up properly but the problem is that touch screen doesn't seem to work...

Can't connect my Zenfone 2 to my pc even though I have installed drivers and adb...

Any way to remove TWRP 2.6.3.3 version??? I try to use fix posted by surdu_petru and all failed, TWRP 2.6.3.3 version is still here??? Does some one succed to remove it and back to stock recovery?
yes many times..
connect your phone to the pc..
wait 'til your pc recognizes your phone..
enable debug mode under settings-developer options..
then load the adb cmd console..
then type "adb devices" (without "")..
if your phone is found you can do the next step..
type "adb reboot bootloader"..
then wait a few seconds..
before this you should have put the respective recovery.img from your firmware inside the adb folder (from where you started the adb cmd)..
when your phone seems to stuck on the huawei logo you can check if your phone is still recognized by the pc - type "fastboot devices" - it should show some weird things - thats ok..
then you can flash the stock recovery by typing "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (the .img must be exactly written how you have it inside the mentioned folder, e.g. b512_recovery.img)..
then you should see some lines describing what the adb has done (sending, writing,flashing or so)..
and that's it..
you should have a stock recovery..
you have just to reboot your phone now by typing "fastboot reboot"..

Its look like you catch a wrong turn..

If only bootloader doesn't work..

What do you mean by wrong turn???
I can flash stock rom because:
1) I have TWRP 2.6.3.3 version and I can not back to stock
2) Error from TWRP is "E: Unable to mount '/Ecache"
3) I try to use dload folder with UPDATE.APP and its failed!
4) The phone boot and stop at MIUI logo

Calm man..
If you on stuck.. Cant bootup.. You must reflash your phone firmware..
Cant mount means your twrp has bugs.. Or your firmware corrupt.Try with another source.. To download..

you might have unlocked bootloader with unofficial method. nothing to worry about its just a warning devices are far more insecure. if you are worried about privacy things. believe there is nothing like secure when using digital devices. and there is not even single service provider which do not collect data. hence enjoy your unlocked device and play around

now reboot your phone in fastboot mode and connect to PC.. now run the following commands
fastboot devices ( to see if device is recognized by pc and fastboot tool)

before this problem happen i upgraded boorloader to MM then flash TWRP and installed MM ROM so now it has MM Custom ROM.

Unable to install TWRP with Miui 10 Global Beta *FIXED*

Hey guys, I'm having a problem.
I've installed the Miui 10 8.7.12 Global Beta and all is well, however i want to install TWRP so I can root and uninstall some Xiaomi apps still on the phone. However whenever I try to install TWRP via fastboot there are a few problems I face.
1) I flash twrp.img and its fine then I do fastboot reboot with volume up + power to go into recovery, but instead of taking me to TWRP, or even the stock recovery it keeps going back into fastboot mode.
2) When I try another method with adb reboot recovery it says device not found
3) If I try and directly go into recovery with fastboot boot twrp.img it restarts the phone and goes into the mi screen and nothing happens from there.
I've tried every possible combination I can think of and made sure I downloaded the proper TWRP from the official website and it still isn't working. Any input?
*EDIT*
I managed to figure it out! SORRY!!! Delete pls!
What was the problem?
how you solved ?
you got the anti rollback ?
You should boot phone with twrp.img like this. Don't reboot.

Hi guys after installing miui pro miui 10 Oreo , my twrp become blank screen , i try to install using cmd , and i try to boot using cmd also didn't work , help me this .

Mi a2 Lite stuck at Fastboot - No recovery, no nothing! Help.

Hello,
I've unlocked the bootloader and installed twrp..
First thing that was strange was that after I've put the .zip file to the internal memory, and booted back to twrp, the files were not there.. after that I've rebooted the phone, it asked me for a password (I've had no password after I've unlocked the bootloader)...
I've puted the Linage OS and Gapps on the external sd card..
Went to recovery again tried to flash the linage OS, got some error, like step 1 step 2.. and then error, tried to reboot into system.. now it only boots into fastboot.. I can get it to the EDL.. However cant flash twrp.. I get the error - mdp image is corrupted..
So I'm stuck! Don't know what to do anymore..
Any help is much appreciated.

No..
I can get into the EDL by typing fastboot oem edl.. and computer recognize the device as Qualcom HS-USB QDloader 9008... I just can't find a way to flash anything..

Bro just stay in fastboot and flash the official stock firmware. Extract it on your computer and run FLASH ALL.
https://en.miui.com/getrom-354.html?m=yes&mobile=2
Btw- make sure you have charge over 50%
I don't recommend to use mi flash tool in that situation.
Download the fastboot rom and adb to the same folder and run the flash_all.bat.
What it will do it delete the partitions and remake them what mi flash tool don't do, after that your phone will be back to stock.
I played with this phone a lot and I even got the system is now destroyed message and also deleted my imei, if I did recovered from that so I know what I'm saying?
MAKE SURE TO NOT RUN THE FLASH_ALL_LOCK.BAT IF YOU DO WITHOUT TESTING IF YOUR SYSTEM BOOT FINE YOU COULD BRICK YOUR PHONE FOREVER!!!​
OP did any of these methods work?
I had the exactly same problem when I first got to flashing on my A2 Lite. Download the newest Fastboot image, extract it with 7zip and run the flash_all.bat, <b>NOT THE FLASH_ALL_LOCK.BAT<b/>. This will recover everything. After that you can proceed normal installing. Also use unofficial TWRP by offain instead of the official one.
The exact installing instructions can be found here: https://github.com/tkchn/daisyinstall
Use only this installation guide, except for the disable encryption part: don't flash the disableencyption.zip directly after TWRP on Slot A, but instead install it after the GApps and leave out Magisk. This will automatically install Magisk 16.7 on your phone, but you can upgrade that after a successful boot. If you will try to flash the def.zip on the Slot A, it will give an error and your phone will encrypt the data on the first boot.

I don't recommend to use mi flash tool in that situation.
Download the fastboot rom and adb to the same folder and run the flash_all.bat.

thanks a lot , it work for my Mi a2 Lite which previously had an error message "device unable to boot Error - mdtp image is corrupted"
now normal again
i found the souliton man do you still need help? i had exact same problem

Soft bricked, need help.

Hi guys, in short, I wanted to install the latest xiaomi.eu MIUI 12.5 beta on a Mi 10T Pro, european version.
What I did was: unlocked bootloader, flash latest TWRP 3.5 beta version, I think I booted the device normally after this...
Then went back to TWRP and flashed the Zip file right away, don't know what I wiped after the install.
All in all the device won't boot now, I'm stuck to either twrp or fastboot.
Problem is I cant flash a fastboot stock rom, says it's successful but the flashing process is like 2 seconds, i can't copy a recovery rom to the internal storage, i think Data partition got corrupted.
Can't wipe Data partition, there is a FBE decription error, and says unsupporter file system auto.
Does anyone have any idea what can I try.
Already tried to change Data file system to ext2 then back to ext4 but no luck.
PC recognizes the phone as a media device, I can see the Internal storage icon, but can't see any files nor can I copy anything to it.
Tried flashing the stock rom with mi flash tool and with command prompt too.
Any advice is welcome.

I typed fastboot erase data, i get: FAILED (remote: Check device console)
Code:
fastboot -w
or
Code:
fastboot erase userdata
is the correct command. Now, if this fails, find lr-twrp, flash that, reboot, wipe data, and try again... And you have to do fastboot commands from fastboot, not from twrp...

this looks like it worked, still now says unable to mount storage when trying to format data from twrp, but thats a step ahead...now it says in yellow )
I have an idea to flash lineage os recovery with fastboot, might that work?
