My new Asus Zenfone 2 stacked in wiping cache screen in recovery...

unable to do recovery, normal boot

and i think i cant even charge it in this situation...:crying:
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thunderc8:
My ZenFone 2 also got stuck at wiping case for 10 min or more I thought I should interrupt the process but luckily I left for some more minutes and got unstuck, it takes a lot of time for this phone to wipe case.

try holding power plus volume up for 15 sec to do a hard shut down and open it again.

if it doesn't work try volume down.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
It wasn't stuck. The wiping process is just extremely slow compared to your experience with TWRP or CWM. If yours is bricked Asus will likely replace it for you.

"I'd Totally Hug You, If That Was Something I Did"
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manager21:
no. it was stack because i wasnt patient and i stop it... but i fixed it with ADB Fastboot and the command "fastboot erase cache"

then i did a factory reset also very slow at wiping data, formatting data but i take my lesson and i was patient this time!
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pilz:
It's really slow, I bricked mine by updating while rooted accidentally and go stuck in fastboot with no ROM or recovery for a while however I managed to fix it. Patience is key in most cases
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eruz:
I brick my phone like you. Now I can use fastboot but not ADB and don't have unlocked bootloader. How can I fix my zenfone?:crying:
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcof93:
If you can enter fastboot, I think you can also enter recovery.

- If you don't care about your data enter recovery and do a wipe data (it may take very very long so please wait). When it reboots, if it's not working flash the original image from Asus site (the same version you have installed) via ADB Sideload in recovery.

- If you have to save your data run tethered TWRP, do a full backup on your microsd, use the TWRP file manager to copy all your internal memory on microsd. For recover apps data, use Titanium backup for recover apps from nandroid backup after you wiped everyting.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eruz:
I don't care about data, I'll try first method. But before I bricked my phone, I have firmware version 2.18. Now I update boot and recovery images to version 2.19 by fastboot: I have to downgrade them before wipe data or it's not important?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirsomething:
Enter fastboot and connect your phone to pc. If you have adb installed and intel drivers, after connect your phone to pc while in fastboot, open cmd and type: Fastboot erase cache

It will go back to normal after
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eruz:
It stuck on the boot animation with animated ring by 40 minutes. I have to wait more? :D Is there another way to fix it (like flashing with Odin as a couple of years ago)?

I have already wipe cache, data and all wipeable things

Thanks guys
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirsomething:
Just press power button until phone turns off. After that enter fastboot and do what I told you
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eruz:
I know that but what will I do? I already try to wipe that partitions and the phone is still bricked. Sorry for my bad english, dude.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirsomething:
Did you get stuck on bootloader after wiping the cache?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eruz:
Yep, for 40 minutes. I wiped it again and restart but nothing changes.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirsomething:
Can you enter Recovery or only fastboot?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eruz:
I can enter stock recovery and fastboot, but not ADB
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirsomething:
ADB is installed on your computer and you enter via command line. How can you not acess it? It is just opening the command line and write the code i told you
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eruz:
ADB doesn't recognize my device, fastboot does. I enabled USB debugging mode and ADB always worked before I updated Zenfone this morning, but now don't. Is it possible enable 'Update zip from SDCard' instead ADB? Maybe I can fix it in this way :confused:

PS before Zenfone I had a Galaxy Nexus and I have a bit of confident with ADB, fastboot, ROM and other stuff, so I know what they are and how work :)
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirsomething:
Sorry for the misunderstanding then. I don't think i can help you in that case :x have you tried to reinstall intel drivers or something?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eruz:
Yep, unistalled all Intel, Asus or Google driver and then reinstalled Intel driver. I think if I can installed custom bootlader ADB will be enabled.

Btw thanks man :highfive::highfive:
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirsomething:
Good luck man. I hope someone can help you :)
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcof93:
1) Try using USBDeview to erase every driver on the pc, (all Asus things, delete also your previous phone drivers)

2) Reboot

3) If you are on windows 8 or 8.1 disable driver signature verification and than install 1-https://software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/intel-usb-driver-for-android-devices 2- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=48915118#post48915118

4) Reboot

5) Go in C:/adb , hold shift on keyboard, right click in the folder and "Open command prompt here" (I don't know the exact translation)

6) Go to recovery with the phone plugged in

7) Tap apply update from ADB Sideload

7) Type in the previous cmd window: adb devices and see now if it's seen by Windows.

Now ADB worked, I probably created a disaster with drivers! Grazie Marco :)

Phone not powering ON...

Hi People,

My friend brought a Zenfone 2 ZE551ML 4days back and today when he connected the phone to the laptop for transferring the data the phone automatically switched off and not powering back on. Any clue what to do before taking it to the Customer Care (as they are asking for 7 days to look into the same)
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lucabeavis:
Hi everybody! I have a Zenfone 2 551 ML that I bought just a month ago. Yesterday the phone downloaded a system update and I let the phone install it right away. The phone got bricked and reading through this thread I realized it has to do with the fact that I rooted it (a week after I got it, just for Adaway). Yesterday I wrote to Asus but they have only replied with an automated message. I have hundreds of pictures that I don't want to lose so I'd like to restore it without losing its data. Can somebody help me and tell me what I am supposed to do? Do I have to follow the instructions that have been given earlier in this same thread or do I have to do something else? My PC has a fresh W7 installation.

Bricked on installing custom rom. Root before Trying. Thethered CWM working, sdcard erased.

Is there a possibility to unlock bootloader via adb or fastboot and gaining root-permission for push-over-adb in order of reinstalling original rom? (On trying: Access denied)

Also no access to additional microsd or usb-otg

[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] ruscik:
I was wondering is it possible to switch off the phone but leave gps on? :confused:

I am using Artemis as GPS on my motorcycle. It is annoying when phone starts ringing :mad: while you ride. Because of my annoying girlfriend I missed two exits of a motorway before she stoped ringing .... and well GPS told me that I missed them after she stopped. Artemis is in my pocket so I can not look at the screen. Also I am not mad to hold a bike with 1 hand at 80mph+ to look at screen or reject the call by pressing a button(not duable in gloves any how) :eek: .
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] Samson711:
Can't you just switch off the phone via the Comm Manager? I can't imagine that this will affect the GPS Reception, since they have to be two different aerials and devices?!
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] drclooney:
why turn phone off, cause its getting to hot...

there are two ways:

1. u can block the phone number for a while if you dont want to talk..

2. u shedule the phone for 3 times ringing it will take the call automaticaly..

:cool:

I'm in the same situaiton, use the Orbit GPS in my pocket, eaphone running to my ear when on the motorbike. Verbal TomTom is just enough. I just turn off the phone function in the com manager to stop calls. Works fine.

I do switch off my phone from comm manager and my GPS stops working at the same time. :confused:

[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] AquiEsta!:
Is there anyway to just shut off the phone's radio so that everything else

such as BlueTooth, WiFi, Ifrd still stays active? I know that with certain

OS ROMs such as Dutty's WM6 v2 you can control each item without

affecting the other. If you used "flight mode" I think that would kill your

BT connection assuming you're using a BT GPS.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] Samson711:
As i said, when i simply switch off the Phone in Comm Manager, no other device is affected, Bluetooth works fine, as well as GPS Reception and TomTom.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] fishes234:
I got fed up of fumbling around, pressing the screen by accident when it was in my pocket and just ordered a Ram Mount Aqua Box for the bike so that I can see TomTom and use the touch screen as well:

http://www.ram-mount-uk.com/ram-hol-aq2.htm

There's a base that bolts on to one of the clipons on the triple clamp, with the arm joining the base and box. Not cheap, but it lets you do you what you need to with the phone and keeps it dry.

If you are looking at them, don't be tempted to get the smaller box though - the artemis will fit inside, but the surround on the touchscreen membrane means that you can't get to all of the buttons or the edge of the screen. Works an absolute treat with a pair of Shure E2C earphones which block out the road noise. Only downside it's a bit fiddly getting the helmet on and off.

Been looking at the Interphone too, basically a bluetooth headset for your helmet which will also double as a wireless intercom, but I think the jury's still out

I got the bracket that bolts on to the clip-on clamp:

http://www.ram-mount-uk.com/ram-b-309-1.htm

I've got a thundercat which has clip ons rather than handlebars. If you've got standard handlebars rather than clipons then I would say a u bolt is the type of clamp you want.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] Gasman:
Hi all, with regards to the gps function being 'turned off' when in flight mode. It just seems to be a quirk with the latest version of TomTom.

Managed to get around it tho :-)

If you choose the 'inbuilt gps' from tomtoms menu then, in flight mode tomtom wont use the gps....bit daft eh!

If you choose 'other cabled' gps from tomtoms menu (com4) then tomtom will use the gps function whether you are in flight mode or not..

Hope that helps

It would seem that there are a number of bugs yet to be addressed on 5.0.2 on sony and other devices.My disappointment is updates from Kitkat has lead my wifi hotspot to become dysfunctional.

Title says short part.

Used wugs NRT to downgrade and revert back to LMZ28E and used NRT to root and install twrp,

Tried flashing cm12.1 and it gets to the boot animation and won't boot past that. :-/ the down grade flashed old boorloader and radio and everything....

Don't know what the problem would be.

Advice? Thoughts? Suggestions?

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
advice, thought, or a suggestion.. dont use toolkits until you know what you are actually doing. do things the right way, until you learn how to do it properly. then use all the toolkits you want. the problem is that toolkits dont teach you a single thing, and doing things right on any nexus is very easy.

my suggestion would be to wipe data/system then reflaah cm again.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blueyes:
Junk ROM anyway.. Lol
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sookieball:
I actually am not a noob,

And I do know how to flash factory images manually using fastboot commands.

I downloaded all necessary files to flash manually.

I did that,

Wouldn't boot past boot animations.

Tried again with tmobile official (from google) files,

Same thing. So last resort was wugs.

Clean flashed cm12.1.

And wouldn't boot.

I appreciate your advice, but don't assume because I didn't succeed on a simple thing as a flash, that one is not familiar with this. The only thing I can think of that would have prevented boot was maybe I had a bad DL of cm.

But unlikely.

Planned on downloading a diff ROM and gapps.

If it doesn't I'll be flashing factory images of LMY47M manually and reroot and recovery and start from there.

Oh and thank you for the wipe/advice.

I did :-/ go fig

Reflashed before I restored backup but no go.

Did you downgrade the bootloader back to 5.1.1?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sookieball:
Yes, manually first and when it wouldnt* boot past animation, last resort was NRT

I reread the thread like 3x.

And it was mentioned that another user used NRT to downgrade successfully.

I thought the same thing, but didn't try it till I read that thread till 4am. This morning decided to take the plunge.

I was thinking also, if I just reflash bootloader and radio and put M back on, then just try manually flashing 5.1?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
i did flash the new bootloader, but i went back and forth from M to terminus(rom) about 5 times yesterday. flaah the new bootloader again, and keep it. you trying to downgrade it might be the issue. btw, i flashed m, and the bootloader, via twrp recovery, its much easier and faster that way. after, i made a backup in recovery. so now all i do to go back and forth is restore the backups.

oh, and i meant you no disrespect. while it doesnt include everyone, most people using toolkits around here are noobs. and they are the ones that usually get stuck. so, i apologize :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sookieball:
I think that's where I messed up from the beginning when I flashed M.

I didn't notice the modified boorloader that doesn't force encryption and it was all downhill from there.

That being said,

Should I flash modified boorloader to not force encrypt, and blah blah blah?
