Try to flash stock firmware :

Put your firmware on external sd card , reboot into recovery and upgrade by sd card select your firmware and wait if you have stock recovery

This Device is to young for flash all and nothing ....

Waiting for more Mod , Recovery , and others utilities for this ZenFone 5
[Asus Zenfone 5 (2018, ZE620KL) Guides, News, & Dis] velis74:
I can confirm the procedure from OP.

I only took an additional twist:

* I booted to fastboot (adb reboot bootloader)

* Booted TWRP recovery (fastboot boot twrp.img) - I skipped unlocking as I had no code

* uploaded magisk image (adb push magisk.zip /sdcard)

* flashed magisk

*root*

Thanks for the guide.

Anyone with solid info on whether this can safely be done AFTER rooting?

If so, does root stay after re-locking the bootloader?
[Asus Zenfone 5 (2018, ZE620KL) Guides, News, & Dis] imna357:
Before relocking bootloader make sure you un-root, root will not be retain if you locked your bootloader, then follow this link--- to flash STOCK OS-[DOWNGRADE][ZE620KL] Firmware Downgrade for ZenFone 5 (2018):By Saktis.

after booting, click debugging and reboot bootloader and then do--- fastboot oem force-reset.

It will prompt you to put your password, just power off and press down button and screen will pop up says erasing, after that, your back to stock FIRMWARE, no root and bootloader locked.

Hope this helps:good:

As for your second question, you need to unroot first. Download the official firmware from asus website, move it to your external sd card, reboot to recovery then choose apply update from external storage, choose the update file, then let the system do the rest. It will tale some time so be patient.

hi,

i am trying to follow your steps. Unlocking the bootloader worked.

How did you extract the boot.img? In the zip from asus there is only a payload.bin.

edit: ok i found a tool to extract the boot.img. payload_dumper.

I patched the boot.img with magisk. Now i could flash the boot.img but what concerns me is, that the patched boot.img is only 19mb while the original boot.img is 64mb. Is it supposed to be smaller?

Well I unlocked bootloader in my ZE620KL, installed GSI rom and then tryed to re-lock my bootloader. This soft-bricked my phone(had stock recovery and had flashed GSI via fastboot). So I had soft-bricked phone with locked status. After small reserach I decided to install raw firmware from guide listed somewhere here. Everything passed fine, but the version of the raw firmware is outdated. I am not able to unlock my phone again, unlocking app shows an error every time, OTA also not works for me. So please consider locking bootloader on stock recovery, because you may not be able to unlock your phone again. Now I can't even update my phone to newest official build.

Don't ask me why I wanted to do re-lock, I just wanted to check if this is reason of SafetyNet test failed.

edit:

Manually OTA works, I have updated to the latest official firmware, but unlock app still shows me an error(translating from polish): Unlocking device failed, try again later. Any ideas how to unlock my phone once again?

After using unlock app ASUS adds your serial number to blacklist, that blocking you from recaiving OTA and any warranty help.

You need Official Asus Firmware

You need to have Official Asus recovery

You need to have Official Boot.img not the Patched

After That you can try to relock your bootloader but Warning the adb command won't run after relock bootloader

After relock your bootloader you need to flash official firmware with official Asus Recovery

You can watch the ZS620KL Method step by step but take the ZE620KL firmware if it's your model phone

Asus Zenfone 5 Lite ZC600KL (ASUS_X017D_1), BootLoop

Hi

my phone was brake and I try to fix that but noting could found from googlein .

let me explain that

My phone model : Asus Zenfone 5 Lite zc600KL

First of all , I try to root , so I found documentation in ASUS website for unlock bootloader , after that I should try to go to recovery , I found 3 file and flash recovery.img with ADB fastboot , after that my phone only go to recovery or can boot in ADB ,

Even I try Cygwin to crate rom for flashing via TWRP but I get error 11 in that recovery , I was google it to find why I get error , someone says downgrade TWRP recovery and someone says it’s for updater-script

Now I have 3 rom , 2 of that I get from ASUS and one of that is called Flushable CMD rom I get it form this link but I couldn’t flash it with that instructions.

Also I have problem in connecting my phone to TRWP and computer dos not recognize usb and didn’t get me and error or connection sound

I have post here and no one helped me !

If this Thread is for ASUS Zenfone 5 Family of 2018 , Please help me .

1-how can I restore original CWM recovery for my phone ?

2-why ASUS.Flash.Tool.v2.0.1 dos not recognize the phone ?

3-how should I do for flashing the this rom (this link) ? this is the instruction and I the folder contain these files.

(SOP of Updating Software by fastboot

1. decompress the software images package you got which is used to update software by fastboot. after decompressing the software package, you should see the following files under it:

adb

adb.exe

fastboot

fastboot.ext

flashall_AFT.cmd

flashall_AFT-linux.sh

and a directory named 'sub_scripts' and corresponding images.

2. press the power key and volume+, bring the device into fastboot mode.

3. then connect the device to computer with a USB cable.

4. flash images with scripts.

1) if you're on a windows system:

a. open the cmd terminal, cd to the directory you just decompressed at step 1.

b.execute "fastboot devices", make sure that the connection between the device and the computer is OK. the "fastboot devices" should print the device's SN. if there's no output, please check your USB driver on PC and the cable connection. see picture 4.1.1(it's a fake SN on my device, just as a demo here, the actual results you got should be different).

picture 4.1.1

c. execute "flashall_AFT.cmd 1" lays in the directory, note there's an argument "1". see picture 4.1.2.

picture 4.1.2

d. "flashall_AFT.cmd" will read your phone model through fastboot, then determine which images should be flashed into your device, then call the corresponding script which lays in the subdirectory "sub_scripts" to flash images into your device.

e. after that, the script will reboot the device.

)

the script warn that connect phone under fastboot , when i connected to pc , cmd will close automatically

Any help would be appreciated.

If you manage to decrypt data or use the format data method, you can install most gsi, but the main point is whether the gsi works with zenfone 5, so far many roms have issue with bluetooth (rr and pep are good examples).

Do note that if you wish to or need to, you can still directly install ota updates with encryption disabled, even if you are currently on a broken build of custom gsi.
