[Completed] Possibly Softbricked Zenfone 2 after CyanogenMod 12.1 install - XDA Assist

Hello everyone! I have an issue with my Zenfone 2 (ZE551ML).
I flashed CyanogenMod 12.1 and everything was working fine. That is, until I decided I wanted to go back to stock ROM. That's when everything went wrong.
1) I went into recovery mode (using Power + Volume UP).
2) I wiped cache partition (probably my first mistake)
3) I restored to factory settings (possibly my second mistake)
4) After this I tried to flash the "recovery1.img" of the stock ROM I had.
5 ) That didn't work so I tried using ADB to flash different ".zip" files (all firmware downloaded from Asus website)
When that didn't work either, I abandoned and rebooted the phone. But it doesn't boot anymore.
It is stuck on the Asus screen and nothing happens.
Does anyone know if and how I can get out of this situation?
I must insist on the fact that I am only a novice. Until now I've only ever known iOS and have no knowledge whatsoever of how Android works.
I really hope someone can help me!

Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
If you can find your stock firmware you can use fastboot to restore the firmware via Asus flash tool.
I don't know the specifics of your device.
Try posting your question in the forum linked below.

Hi, thank you for answering.
I downloaded the Flash Tool but it only supports <.RAW> files. I can't find the proper files though, the only ones I can find are for ZF4/5/6... Any ideas on where I could find them ?
I'll post my question on both links you indicated, thank you.

Try this link, go down to where it says "please select OS", click that and then select "android", then scroll down the list until you find the firmware you are supposed to have.

I downloaded the appropriate zip file but flashtool only allows raw format. I found older version of firmware in raw format but couldn't get the flashtool to do anything with it. Waited 15 minutes for something to happen but nothing. Do you know of any way to convert zip format to raw ?

Try extracting the .zip, it could be a .RAW file that has been compressed for download, if it is then just unzipping the file should give you the .RAW you need.

Unfortunately the .zip file contains lots of differents files and folders...
By order of appearance :
- META-INF
- recovery
- system
- boot.img
- droidboot.img
- file_contexts.file

Wikipad Rooted

The Wikipad has been rooted and there is also a ClockworkMod Recovery available. I take no responsibility for your actions. This a choice you are making. If you brick your device that's on you. That being said, these procedures have been successful so far.
This only works on the Wikipad 7 inch running Android 4.1.1 and using Windows 7 64-bit (32-bit should work as well). I've not tried this with 4.2.2 or Windows 10, nor I have touched my Wikipad in years.
Download this: Everything you Need.zip and follow the read me(s).
A clean recovery backup! (Props to ordoeb) -- http://dfiles.ru/files/079843b8f
Thanks. Worked for me. Got root and clockworkmod. Still can't see my device in adb in Ubuntu. Trying to figure that out.
bad link
Thanks for root.
But link doesn't work.
Please, update the link "Everything you Need.zip".
Thanks again.
The Wikipad needs its own forum.
Sent from my R800x using xda app-developers app
Finally
Mad props to ordoeb! Thank you and thank you again.
I'm downloading his stock image. I'll install it, make sure it's clean, then upload a copy with a link to share. As promised, I will also release instructions and files for root.
ordoeb, you've done the Wikipad community a great service. We now have full control over a device we love.
We now:
-Have a way to backup the device
-Restore the device (even in some "bricked" situations")
-Create Custom Roms
-And root the device
:good:

How did you do it? I did everything correctly and I'm stuck in "waiting for device"
[SOLVED] I placed the original fastboot in the motochopper folder which probably didn't do anything. But since my android drivers are everywhere! I removed the adb_usb that was provided in the everything you need rar and used Google's USB drivers. Worked like a charm!

I downloaded it when it was called "just for you.zip" now the zip just has stuff about baltimore. Hopefully we'll get something to root the Wikipad soon. It's a good tablet, but it needs button mapping and I want to see if I can get rid of some of the useless google apps.

New Link.
This is not exactly a mirror but a new upload. Idk if I can even do that but its needed.
Root does work and there are instructions inside the zip.
The original download link works as well because I've seen that weird download link while trying to download via mobile network. After switching to WiFi it was there bright and clear.

Yup yup! I'd also create a backup of your own, not saying the one provided is bad. But on my device it stops the G-Sensor from functioning. Could just be my device though. Just a tip aha.
Hello guys,
I just received my Wikipad 7, it's a very great console without big audio lag unlike my Nvidia Shield...
Controls are excellent !
I just rooted my Wikipad, but I seen it's only a Tegra 3 T30L (not a T30S as described on first Wikipad Details before its release...)
So it's blocked at 1.3Ghz for 1 core and 1.2Ghz for 4 cores (instead of 1.5Ghz-1.4ghz as promised).
This tablet is a Nexus 7 clone lol So maybe an overclocked kernel is possible ? We can also dump the boot etc. with the ClockworkMod Recovery.
Thanks for your help.
I also made a topic in Q/A forum.

thanks,
unfortunately download is exclusive, need to pay for that.
I think the best one is 2.1.7 firmware general (multilanguage for sure).
anyway, about to flash, I cant determinate method, it is zip file but maybe there are images inside, if this, we need to use adb command (quite easy).
will wait for someone that can upload images by a normal link, and maybe a working recovery too, just in case files need to be flashed.

hello,
by the firmware name looks it is correct or let's say...it should be, but....to download from that link you need to pay and to test if is correct or not it is a risk.......
back to your question: normally to flash firmware you need to have .img files, with adb command you can push into watch from pc.
if file is zip, first you have to install recovery (watch) and by that you can flash file into .
our fellow-friend wildlime says that the one from the link is an exe file (quite strange for me, but that's it), in this case I dont know how to do, most probabably by pc cause you cant run exe files from watch....
to be more clear try to check this out ( credit to rickboy324 for the good job and help) : https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-watch/general/tutorial-complete-guide-how-to-flash-t3307137
DO NOT try with files included on the link I gave you, that is for HW 1st generation, rom are different from HW2. keep it just to understand how it normally works.
anyway, we have to wait some screenshot to be sure about, or, better than better, file uploaded here for free..

I'll wait until a more concrete solution comes up to change the language to English.

the only way to change language is to change firmware, chinese HW watches has only chinese language.
I think is question of time, there will be here someone able to pull images by adb command, I cant cause I am in China with a chinese watch......
hitting thanks button is more than welcome

How are you installing the apps for the HW Watch 2?
I only see a few Chinese apps on the Huawei APP store on the watch.
How is there no WeChat or more apps?
I'm using Android Wear (US version) on my iPhone to connect to the watch.
I hope that wildlime person is not joking and is willing to share.

hello,
first, if u use iphone, android wear is only one, so it is ok.
second, you dont need to have apps into watch, with iphone you can only receive notifications on watch even if there are no apps inside.
if you want to install apps into watch you have to do with adb command (adb install nameoftheapp.apk). you have to extract from the original apk ONLY micro.apk. you will find in "res" and than "raw" folder.
example: if you want to play with watchmaker, you have to install it into iphone from apple store, than you have to download an apk from the net. after you have watchmaker apk in your pc, open it with 7zip or similar, you will find "res" folder, open it and you will find "raw" folder. inside it there is micro.apk, pull this apk out and install it by adb command into watch. this is the way phone interact with watch with this app.
this is for almost all apps you want into watch.
about wechat, you cant install into watch, there is no micro.apk inside and the whole apk it wont work. again, with iphone, no need, you will just receive notifications (without the name of the sender..... just message receive....)
back to the topic of this treath, i am downloading file from our friend, i will check and report later.

You can flash without using the re-partition option. That is usually used when flashing the PIT file along with the firmware.

Yes, you can upgrade but you shouldn't need the PIT, the PIT is only used when one or more of your partitions are corrupted. Flashing PIT repairs your partition structure.

You can use terminal emulator or adb to pull a copy of your PIT file directly from the device.

Why can't you at least TRY finding something yourself. I will not do all the searching for you. I told you what you need and you know what your device is so do some searching to find how to pull PIT from your model number.
If the device is that important to you then you should be willing to do what it takes to learn.
@[email protected], read my updated info. I'm trying to help, but you need to understand that helping you does not mean doing all the hard work for you. I'm trying to teach you how to find what you need and how to search for the right thing, I'm not just trying to help you fix your device the way you want. If you're going to play around with your device then the most important thing to learn is how to find the correct information for what you need.
Try doing some searches like the example below.
"How to (whatever you want/need to know)"
"What is (whatever you want/need to know)"
"(Whatever you are looking for or want to know)"
I did a simple Google search for:
"How to extract PIT from Galaxy S3"
This was the first link in results:
http://www.droidviews.com/how-to-extract-pit-file-from-samsung-galaxy-devices/
That search took me 20 seconds to find. How hard was that?

What exactly are you trying to do? What modifications are you trying to make to the firmware?

For phones? Maybe
For printers? No.

Yeah no. What you're asking for can theoretically be done but it will require a lot of work reverse engineering the firmware, and by a lot I really mean it. Firmware is almost never open source so you won't find the source code anywhere.
What are you trying to do specifically?
