Can't even get a logo at boot... could this help because so far I can't even get my device properly recognized by xfstk

 

[Balagopal.G]

Well for those having problem with windriver and errors as such
use soft_fuse option in the OPTIONS>MODIFIED SETTINGS in xfstk downloader........
The softfuse i used is attached along with this post...............
(extract the zip to obtain the soft_fuse.bin file)

Also when stuck at usb logo

Switch off the phone first........
Select the 5 files (dnx,ifwi,osdnx,osimage,softfuse(in options>modify settings))
then select download.....
then press and hold volume down key and connect phone
After phone vibrates,release the volume down key,
be patient and the usb logo appears and a green line is displayed below usb logo and then asus logo is shown.........
in the XFSTK downloader success message is displayed..............

well i was able to successfully flash IFWI and OS but it is not automatically entering into fastboot.........
I dont know why.
It gets stuck with Asus logo with a red underline...........

Still no luck.......

if someone finds anything please let me know............

Encountering " Windriver Error: 0x20000015 "

Expected cause : Driver not installed correctly .

please edit for correct repair. volume- and insert usb only. succesfully repaired droidboot.

 

[doantienphat99]

Hi! I did the entire xFSTK method, and it shows success message at the end. BUT after that the same "Intel inside" logo appears again on the screen. I tried it many times, same thing happens everytime. Also during this process, USB logo appears on the screen with a small white rectangle beneath it, which suddenly turns green for a very short time and the phone gets stuck again on "intel inside" logo. Could anyone tell me the solution to this problem? I would be grateful if any senior member could help me out.
Thanks

i am too, please help me, Im has stuck the same like this
(bad English sorry)

Help, please

I have a problem a little different than usual in this case.
My sister's Zenfone 5 are stuck in Intel logo, and can't enter droidboot/recovery.
I've tried this method, and the method of this site here:
andrewbenedictus .wordpress .com/2016/02/15/how-to-unbrick-asus-zenfone-5-stuck-on-intel-logo/
(i don't know if is prohibited send links of external sites, now let's move on)
But that Zenfone 5 keeps on the SAME Intel logo, without entering on nothing, just locked and bricked on that Intel logo

Error while flashing the raw file

Hello ! I've tried to unlock bootloader at first and succeeded in that when i was on the lollipop . Unlocking is done by the unlock tool provided by the ASUS Officials.
Then i flashed the cynogen 12.1 unofficial via a boot.img , atwrp v3.img & a system.img.
Everything was fine until i needed to revert back to stock firmware.
And also everytime when i try to boot into recovery via Power & volume (-) button , it boots into system.
I used "adb reboot recovery" to boot into twrp recovery .
So, to revert back i saw a method in which we flash a raw firmware , and i downloaded a 4.0.3 for Asus Zenfone 4.
But after flashing it , the bootloader i unlocked , got locked by itself (means i can open droid boot but cannot modify boot and recovery partition via "fastboot flash boot boot.img" & "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" ).
I can only flash system via " fastboot flash system system.img".
I tried to unlock it on Jelly Bean but no success.
Also i tried updating the firmawre via OTA and flashing zip in recovery mode but i was not able to boot into recovery mode, even with "adb reboot recovery".
It always ends up with a reboot , then booting into a 'Android logo for 200 to 300 millisec' , & then boot into system.
Then i found a KitKat firmware raw file , but when i flashed it via AFT 1.0.0.0 , it always gives error "no space left for flashing modem binary".
I tried "fastboot erase data" ,"fastboot erase userdata" ,"fastboot erase cache" , & "fastboot erase system" , but ended up with stock rom with no modem binary.
So , i tried to unlock the bootloader again by the "unlock tool" provided by ASUS , but even after connected to a high speed Wifi , It gives connection error and rest of the other things are working fine like browser etc.
I also tried to flash the modem.zip inside the stock firmware zip via fastboot as : "fastboot flash update modem.zip. It has flashed the zip but still no modem binary.
Then i tried to flash the bin file inside the modem.zip as : fastboot flash radio radio_firmware.bin and it gives error : No space left for flashing modem binary.


Now i have a bootloader (locked) but no recovery and a stock firmware with no modem binary.

I'm having the same problem here. I've tried the method on this thread and despite the xfstk side performed successfully, the phone is still stuck on intel logo when trying to access fastboot. At this point I really wish I could at least know what's the problem because I've been trying solutions in the dark and the phone won't let me write anything to it (it seems).

yeah, I've tried that before I did this one and it didn't work. There is a thread here that talks about my particular problem, and I also found someone else having the exact same trouble and errors as me. It seems as if the flash memory is corrupted somehow so really there's nothing I can do except for hardware replacement which is hardly worth it.

The first person i helped regarding this problem have to replace his hardware ...!

I'll just dump what I've done here

Phone is dead but thought I'd share my troubles on xfstk's side in case someone else faces the same problem as I did.

1. Started and did everything on the original post, encountered Windriver Error: 0x20000015. I tried both method but it didn't work, to the point that I build xfstk in linux only to find it still throws errors.
What fixed it for me was to hold down the volume down button before I connect the cable to my laptop for whatever reason but it worked.

2. It then still gave me an error but I forgot what it was, I didn't save the logs until much later. Scouring the thread someone suggests providing a soft fuse file. Okay. I downloaded the file from him BUT xfstk gives me error code 45 softfuses signature error. I had to download the raw firmware from here to get the soft fuse file to get it to work.

So there it is. In the last "successful" attempt xfstk gives me "Success: Download of FW and OS Completed." but of course the phone didn't cooperate. I think you should add those to your original post, especially the first one since it helped a lot of people.
