Hi Everyone
I will show you how to unlock bootloader, install TWRP and ROOT on
ASUS Zenfone 3 Max 5.5 ZC553KL (X00D).
Before you remember to backup data carefully.

All needed files will be in this folder:
Please edit all the link to be form of google shorterner

goo. gl/xCAUAB

1. We downloaded two driver compression files on:

Adb: goo. gl/SBVPVG

Intel Android Driver: goo. gl/oYN7mG

2.Download this file:

goo. gl/5yA6yp

3. After you download all the necessary files, you unzip them all and start installing.

Run file adb-setup-1.4.2.exe to setup adb

Adb is now installed Intel Android Driver next next time as usual.

That is the driver. Now copy the two files (frp.BIN and twrp-3.1.1-0-X00D-20171020-5.img) into the C: \ adb folder.


4. Brother downloaded this file supersu and then copy to phone memory card.

goo. gl/jLmknM

5. Now start using adb to flashboot


After copying, we go to PowerShell (Admin) if using windows 10


You guys use win7 and 8 then run cmd with admin rights.
After open brother type the following commands in turn order:

cd C: \ adbadb reboot bootloader

The command to enter the bootloader, wait for the machine and then reset then type.

fastboot flash config frp.bin

Waitt for the copy to complete the command to reset.

fastboot reboot-bootloader

After resetting, type the following command:

fastboot oem unlock-go

Once done, type in the following command:

fastboot reboot

After the reboot finishes the power off.

Then press the volume key + before pressing the power button, wait for the screen, then release the power button to keep the volume + key to bootloader.

Please enter the order fastboot flash recovery
twrp-3.1.1-0-X00D-20171020-5.img

Wait for the file to finish typing the command below to enter the TWRP

fastboot oem reboot-recovery

After entering the TWRP, the brothers swipe the left "Swipe modified system".

Next select Install -> Select Storage under -> Micro SDCard -> OK

Youu will see the file SuperSU-V2.82.zip you just copied to the memory card.

Click on this file -> Swipe to Right Swipe to confirm Flash Finished, now sit back to finish running and reset the machine.
So is root finished.

Wishing you success.
