Unable to install any firmware, can't even downgrade [zenfone 4] - Asus Zenfone 4

Hi there,
Couple of days back I rooted my Zenfone 4 a400cg, all went fine, the phone was working fine. But After a reboot, it stuck on asus logo. Tried to hard reset, but didnt happen. for the worst part, I dont have any back ups. I went mad and tried to install a ".raw" file.
But the droidboot and recovery didnt recognize it. then i went ahead and downloaded firmware for a400cg "UL-ASUS_T00I-WW-7.4.4.0-user.zip" bt while flashing the recovery said "android version too old status 7". then I tried to flash the downgrade able version "UL-ASUS_T00I-WW-9.9.9.0-user.zip" , bt the recovery gave some error of status 6. I formatted the /system and / data from recovery, so i dont have any firmware atm.
The only things I Have now is droidboot and recovery.
What to do now???
Help
P.S. my zenfone 4 was running on lollipop and the droidboot screen says IMAGE VERSION : 7.4.4.0

since this forum don't have active pro devs, I suggest you to bring your device to Asus Service Center in your region or you can going ask to zentalk forum about this problem. I'm sure on that forum there are many active users and devs

Galaxy Mini BRICK ROM Manager

Help!!!!
I bricked my phone with rom manager when i installed CWM over Rom manager i picked the wrong phone it was some huawei model my phone was ginger 2.3.4 galaxy mini stock rom
That's what happens when you don't know that rom manager bricks galaxy mini...
Go buy a new phone there nothong to do and now you know must not use ROM manager!
Sent from my GT-I9400 using XDA Premium
can you go into download mode
No way he can enter download mode when he flashed CWM for the wrong phone...
If you are aware you hard bricked your device, why are you calling for help? Hard bricks can only be repaired with JTAG, not something you can do at home.
time for a new phone... if it's hard bricked then just bin it and learn from you're mistake. remember research before you do anything with you're new phone.
If your phone is under warranty, go get it fixed in samsung service centre for free( Act innocent- say you set the alarm and your phone never started or rang in the morning)
If its not, say FML and use your phone as paper weight.
another victime of ROM MANAGERS ......lol
Never use ROM manager! Many people had brick with it!
Do you still have the guarantee? Go to SSC (Samsung Service Center).
Write a story and lied there. lol.
My friend do the similar thing with his Galaxy W, and got his part replaced by SSC. for free.
Damn!
OK guys im getting it to the ssc and ill tell you the results btw no download mode

Have you revived your phone?
I bricked my phone by using rom manager.
I can't boot normally nor enter recovery.
I can enter download mode but after I flashed stock roms by odin, nothing happened.
Anyone can help?

Wow, I guess the guy who sold me his GT-S6500 must have done something like this, because the exact same things are happening to this phone. It's true: before using strange programs or downloading any firmware without being sure it will suit your phone model, you have to read all the appropriate guides, as other users just recommended before. Or just ask for help to someone with more experience. :fingers-crossed:
Now it's almost 3 days I'm trying to solve the problem with this poor Mini 2. I'm afraid the seller could have used that ROM Manager, and if it wasn't enough, he also destroyed the battery.
Remember that if the phone shows a boot loop with the samsung writings but it still can go into Download Mode (but not into Recovery), the phone isn't bricked yet. It's called "soft brick" but it's still recoverable.
If not, you have to buy a device called JTAG (expensive option) or build you own small "Jig" device (cheap option), following some guides you can find on Google. That will "resurrect" your phone. Good luck

As you said, my phone should be soft-bricked because it can still go into download mode.
But I can't revive it from flashing any stock rom via odin.
So it seems hard-bricked.
should not use rom manager if still using stock rom. especially in the rom manager menu choose reboot into recovery. do not do this you will galaxy mini hard brick. This is my experience. but if you still can get downloads in flash mode can be through odin. but if you can not get into download mode . take it to the samsung service centre
This is my experience

General Mobile 4G PhilZ Recovery

Hello guys, today i have ported PhilZ recovery to General Mobile 4G which is an Android One Second Generation Phone. And i would like to share that with you on xda because after i flashed custom recovery there was an OTA update and unfortunately the custom recovery tried to install that OTA and before i backup stock rom it has bricked my General Mobile 4G. Now i need stock rom via other people's help. After that we will have stock rom and we can try to compile CM and other kinds of ROMs. So if anybody wants to help please pm me.
And if someone wants to use the PhilZ recovery:

sad to hear that I do hope you resolve your problem right away btw sorry I don't have the 2nd gen device yet so I can't test your recovery
Today i went to a shop and borrowed a General Mobile 4G and at home backed it up and flashed it to my phone and it was successful. It went so smooth now I have recovered my phone.

Hi Sadronis, Glad you got your phone successfully restored, This is jan 17 -2016, but I just read your thread , My problem is getting any custom recovery to install,,My phone is Cherry Mobile H220 (2nd gen), but after much playing about with it, it now works on IQii (thai version), ,On switching on , it shows the original G1 motto on screen,but in everything else in settings it shows it as IQii, Its now updated to latest upgrade (mmb28O), everything seems to be working as far as I can tell, but I just cant seem to get twrp into phone,, In device manager it shows that adb is working,, In portable devices in device manager, it says model H220, , so I think that part of windows operation is working ok, (drivers etc),,. I would like to install Philz recovery into phone, , I tried your link in first post, but link seems dead, ,Can you direct me to where I can download that version, that you used in General Mobile G4 ?, Hope You can help me in my search, Thank you Sir.

HTC Desire 626 Bricked, need help.

Hi there eveyone, thank you for reading this.
a friend of mine has an HTC Desire OPM1100 D626ph (says on the back of the phone)
when he tries to update to the newer version (the official way) He faces an error, the phone restarts and its stuck now on an endless loop. the options he had was htc recovery menu. he has tried all the options there in hope of fixing the problem.(he doesn't know english) and he probably ruined everything. now the phone doesn't have a back up, nothing works. ADB wasn't turned on in the begining. no fast boot. the only options i think i have is to download a rom via sdcard.(not even sure if it's external)
these are the options on the menu:
reboot system now:
apply update from adb
apply update from sdcard
apply update from cache
wipe /data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
backup user data
restore user data
any help on this would be appreciated, any ideas what should be my next step? i have history of using fastboot/adb. i don't know which rom i should download and from where? htc website confused me and the onlyy thread i found on the internet was this one and there are several links on there. not sure which one should i use?
thanks again guys.
Which carrier is he on? Also, we would need to know if it's a 626, 626s, 626x, 626g, etc... Not sure which model it is from the info posted above. If it's a 626s, the only way to recover is if it's a T-Mobile 626s (no other versions have an RUU to restore it to stock).

thank you for your response
it's an HTC Desire 626G+ (dual sim) and the carrier is "Telecommunication Company of Iran"
Hmm - I would have him contact his carrier and see if they have an "RUU" available for that phone. An "RUU" is Windows application that will reset the phone back to the way it came from the factory - and can typically restore any phone - unless it has a hardware issue.
Otherwise, let's see if anyone else has any input (I'm not familiar with the 626g myself).
Sorry that I couldn't be more helpful!

i don't think the carrier would help out with this. though it made me think he didn't do anything wrong so do you think that warranty will accept the phone?
The carrier are the ones that need to supply the RUU (either directly or via HTC), which I why I mentioned that he should contact the carrier.
I would agree that it's a warranty issue if he we just trying to install an OTA update and it caused all of this...

i have same problem with D626ph. I was rooted phone with kingroot after this try to update with ota and result was error and phone boot only to recovery menu
Ahhh - yeah, if you are rooted (and unlocked bootloader), you cannot apply OTA updates. Although, usually, they fail right away and you can just boot right back into the phone normally (without the update, obviously). It's kinda strange that the OTA is bricking the phone like that.

Your link requires an decryption key.
pl provide key. facing the same problem with htc 626g+. Updated via official OTA. Sad that they rolled it without thoroughly testing it.
Have you guys contacted HTC and/or the carrier? They should resolve this issue for you (via an RUU or some other means)!

Guys thank you for your replies. I'm kinda new to xda forum. Should i reply one by one and quote people's names or just reply in one comment? Are there any rules?
About the post, it's weird that many people are experiencing the same problem! And where i live phone carriers don't care about phone problems and it's the first time I'm hearing that i should contact my carrier for my bricked device. But things are differently in different countries ?? to @tpr0 i might try your solution when i get my hands on the device againand if no one provides a better suggestion. Because i gave it back to my friend and told him to try the warranty. After a day turned out he has bought the device without a warranty! They sell phones without warranty in iran for a cheaper price. I think it's worth paying 50 more dollars for a 1-2 years warranty. Anyway I'll let you guys know as soon my friend returns his phone (which will be pretty soon I'm guessing. Meanwhile ill wait if anyone has a link for the ROM or a solution.
try this:

Soft-bricked is good, download mode and Odin recognisable is better so don't worry we can fix this for you. First though, your English is understandable so keep it up and you didn't violate anything. You even posted in the correct section so +5 for reading.
Looks like your recovery is broken so you need to first make sure your phone is boot-able. Therefore Odin flash a stock rom (this uses the download mode) to reset everything. From there, two ways are available to install recovery, stock update or Odin flash again so choose which one suits you best. Don't use the old KitKat roms (except NightOwl) since they're unsupported. Stable ones are NightOwl roms as it's still in active development.

Right now you ignore all of that. Odin flash a stock rom from sammobile, then install the correct recovery based on your stock ROM from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191. Get the Jellybean rom, it's safer and easier.

Did you post your issue in the official LG UP thread or in the back to stock marshmallow kdz thread where the file that you need to get this back to stock using LG Up is listed. If you would have searched in the kdz back to stock thread you would have seen that another user helped me with the exact same issue ss you. Was ready to turn my phone in for warranty before finding my answer there. Your phone is still able to boot into recovery manually but you have to do it a few times then you install a rom that's saved on your sd card and your phone will boot up. Hopefully you still have your G4 and can try this method.

Really I'm thinking not explain to me how my lg g4 phone can boot into recovery manually when i relocked the boot loader through adb.
All I have is down load mode No regular O.s boot no fast boot mode
Its all secure boot error 1003
I download the kdz 20i from auto primes code fire link that's the only kdz for 20i around .
The issue is lg up tool sees my device as Unknown model because I was on a ROM when this happened apparently there's no fix unless you can boot into the O.s and edit the ROM

This is impossible lg bridge is not a semi brick or full brick fix tool its a upgrade tool from what I see
lts for a device that's in a bootable operating state allowing firmware upgrade .
It can only read in a device in mtp mode If you only have download mode that doesn't help at all Withp lg bridge The unknown device model issue is only seen with the Other tool Caller Lg up.
I go on and on and on and noone takes my exact scenario and breaks it down .

Actually my bootloader was locked at the point I used LGBridge.
Not being able to connect suggests driver problems. Reload them and try again.

No that's not true I guarantee you wasn't
Relocked boot loader u couldn't have been
I am for sure about this and lg bridge sees my device when I choose update recovery error it tells me there are No update errors that can be recovered
So how does that prove it fixed yours when we was in the same scenario?

I made a mistake when upgrading my phone from LP to MM and accidentally left my Bootloader locked when trying to upgrade, nearly bricking my phone. I was receiving a 1003 error every time I tried to boot. I posted this in a different thread last month for someone else who had the same problem.
I had this exact same issue when upgrading my phone. Didn't do it correctly and it took me about 3 hours before I got my phone working again. It was about a week ago on another computer, but I'll try to recall what I did when it finally clicked in my mind.
Download H81120i_00_0201.kdz flashable zip from here (1.6GB Feb-04-16):
http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime.../H811/H81120i/
Download LGUP and install it. I used the DropBox link in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/h...mm-lp-t3249803
Remember to install the LGUP_8994_DLL file BEFORE LGUP_Install
Download and install LG Bridge (for the USB drivers) here:
http://www.lg.com/uk/support/pc-suite
Select the LG 815 model, the drivers will work. I only used the LG Bridge to install the USB drivers. Nothing else.
OK, now here's where your phone comes in.
Step 1: Turn off your phone (pull the battery if you must, but put it back in).
Step 2: Hold the VOLUME UP button and plug the USB cable into your PC. This puts your phone into DOWNLOAD MODE.
Step 3: On your PC, open up LGUP. The program shoud recognize the phone as H811 in COM3 or COM4. Highlight it and click the SELECT button.
Step 4: Under the "Process" row, select UPGRADE
Step 5: Click the blank space under File Path, it will pop up a [...] [X] at the end. Click the [...].
Step 6: Select the H81120i_00_0201.kdz and click on Start. The program will push the STOCK H811 MM ROM to your phone. This will bring your phone out of Brick mode, but you will have to go through the entire rooting process again.

Once again I was on a ROM when in did all this if it wasn't for that fact Lg Up would see my device model as h11 not unknown
So tell me how to get past the Unknown device model issue due to bring on a Custom Rom when this happened

The issue lies in step 3
The phone doesn't recognize as h811 it is as unknown model
If you know a way around that I'd love to know because every day I Go to snap the phone in half and recycle it as trash I stop my self thinking maybe one person will get that I was on a ROM when this happened and have a solution for Lg up to see my device as h811

That sounds like a driver issue. When I did mine I was also on a custom ROM. I had to manually remove all LG drivers via the Device Manager and install the LG Bridge for its LG USB drivers before the LGUP tool would recognize it. Before I did that it wouldn't even see my phone.

I would like to think that butt LG up is evidently seeing a connection from my phone to the PC it's just reading the device model as unknown because if I unplug the phone it goes back to reading nothing I plug it back in pops up red box model unknown I know it's reading the phone in LG up because it actually tells you the ROM it detects which is Xtreme ROM by micro mod
Not only that LG Mobile support tool read my phone and says software is up-to-date LG flash tool 2014 attempts to flash but fails because it is not compatible apparently with Android 6.0
Nlg bridge when I try to use that tool sees my phone when I choose update recovery error and says there are no recoveries to update I don't believe it's a driver issue I think it's the fact that I'm stuck on a ROM that is edited in some fashion that will not allow the tool to to proceed to the next step and if you look at the LG up thread it talks about a member explaining about the unknown device model issue is due to the ROM developer editing his ROM name somehow
Everyone that has gotten past the unknown device model happen to have an unlocked bootloader or was just trying to do a regular upgrade and still had an OS to boot into there's just no way around this mess
