[Q] Uninstall Clockworkmod

Guys any suggestion on how to uninstall CWM, want to give a try on roms using 4ext.

Lol. Its funny cuz i was thinking the exact same thing this morning.
However, its really simple. just go here. Go down to Download section and download 4ext Revocery Updater. Put that on your phone. install the application thru a file browser. Then open the application and press Online install | upgrade and it will ask for u to connect to 4ext servers. Click Do not display again and then press yes. Install the latest version. This will come in the form of a zip file and put that back on your computer.
Extract the recovery.img (dont rename it for simplicity sake) from the zip folder into ur sdk/platform-tools. Then open the Command Prompt and navigate to the platform-tools folder or alternatively just click shift right click and "open command window here" from within the platform-tools folder. Now power into bootloader and clock fastboot. It shoulds say fastboot USB. Now type into the cmd from your computer
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
and hit enter. Then ure recovery should be flashed. Boot into recovery and u should have 4ext touch reovery

Download 4EXT Updater. Download latest version of 4ext and the phone flashes it for you. Keep in mind that 4ext does not replace cwm, it just copies over it. You backups are still in the cwm folder.

What I see is that I can continue using both but by sepatate.
Once installed and in a future want to use the CWM just uninstall 4ext or have to do something special

Yes i did flash 4ext recovery and works like a charm. However, its just copied over cwm. I also dont think its possible to uninstall something once its flashed to your phone. its like when u flash something in the ROMs or other things like Mods from the recovery. U cannot remove it (at least from my basic understanding lol). Cuz whenever u wanna flash something in cwm it always says
Are you sure you want to flash this
-no
-no

Once its flashed "over the top", CWM is removed and 4EXT takes its place. Basically anything you flash on top of something else removes what was there before in that exact place. For example if you were sitting on a chair and I came and replaced you, you wouldn't be on that chair anymore, would you?
That is just a precaution because you can go wrong with flashing the wrong thing, and you can't un flash

Lol very nice metaphor!
I did this the other day and it worked fine. Just install the 4EXT app and install from there.

I installed the app and installed the recovery from there, everything working fine.

Downloaded the 4ext recovery, installed it on phone, did the online install, upgraded and installed 4EXT_Recovery_Touch_v1.0.0.5_RC9, extracted recovery image from this file put it in the android folder with the following files adb (application file), AdbWinApi.dll, boot (image file), Fastboot (application file), Unlock_code file. Connected the phone to the computer in bootloader, went to fastboot and connected it to the computer which than showed fastboot usb, went into cmd and typed fastboot flash recovery recvoery.img in the android folder with the above mentioned files with the recovery image file. Now for the past 20 minutes it is stuck at sending recovery <5466 kd>.....
Please help??? dont know what I am doing wrong???

there is other way to Flash recovery by avoiding overwriting files...I used this many time to switch between 4EXT Touch >> CWM >> TWRP...
Right click on command prompt and select 'RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR'...
Give a path of fastboot drivers... (mine is C:/android/adb) depend on ua adb driver location...
type command...
fastboot erase recovery
it will erase ua recovery (It will erase ua recovery only and only if u run command prompt as administrator)
put ua desired recovery in adb folder where u installed adb and fastboot drivers (rename it to recovery for more connivance )
type this command now...
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
it will send ua recovery to system and ua done...

Thanks but right now I am stuck at sending recovery, so if I remove cwm and than flash 4ext as you have suggested and I again get stuck on sending than I won't have any recovery...

So you are saying that after flashing 4ext, you cant boot into recovery???
Cuz i find that kinda funny considering the fact that 'flashing' means you overwrite and replace. Since 4ext is built from CWM I dont see how it wudnt be compatible. Plus our device is fully supported.

It's not that I can not boot into recovery...I cannot flash the 4ext recovery, it gets stuck at sending recovery for ages and than I have to unplug the USB and reboot the phone...

can't find it anywhere how to install recovery

guys... i've searched everywhere... how to install recovery ?
i have root and bootloader unlocked.
everywhere i go i see it's a flashable zip... but how do i install a flashable zip when i don't have a recovery installed ?
i've tried flashing the recovery.img from those zip through fastboot. but no luck... i'm on .283 kernel.

You can use adb commands or Flash Tool!
1)Download any dogo ROM or any flashable kernel zip!
2)Open that zip and find boot.img file.
3)Extract that to a folder.
4)Use adb or flashtool method
adb method:
Install adb drivers and adb cmd
Go to the folder where you extracted the boot.img
Press CTRL + Right Click and click on open with adb
Once adb is opened in that directory,
Type this : fastboot flash boot boot.IMG
Flashtool:
Open flashtool
Click on thunder sign and select fastboot
Select kernel to flash
Navigate to folder where u extracted boot.img
By default *.sin are shown. Change it *.img by selecting it in the menu
Select boot.img and in 10 sec u r recovery will be flashed

found my way....
- download any stock .283 kernel ftf.
- extract the kernel.sin using winrar
- send it over to nut's recovery website
- it generates a flashable recovery.
- extract the boot.img
- flash it using flashtool's fast boot method.
- done
check out nut's recovery... pretty handy script there that generates most of the recovery flashable.

[GUIDE] Downgrade Zenfone 2 Laser to any official firmware

I have discovered multiple ways of downgrading ZenFone 2 Laser out of which two methods proved out to be easy and reliable. Both methods have been tested and are working.
Method 2 doesn't require root while method 1 needs root access.
Pre-requisite: Stock firmware zip file. You can find download links from index thread for all variants.
WHILE THIS GUIDE HAS VERY LESS CHANCES OF MESSING UP YOUR DEVICE, HUMAN ERROR CAN ANYWAY HARM THE DEVICE. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING YOU DO TO ANY DEVICE. YOU ARE DOING THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK
METHOD 1: Requires ROOT-
Short instruction:
Some users say you can downgrade by renaming the OTA zip to correspond to a higher version but that will NEVER work because the update script has this line
(!less_than_int(1457089250, getprop("ro.build.date.utc"))) || abort("Can't install this package (Fri Mar 4 19:00:50 CST 2016) over newer build (" + getprop("ro.build.date") + ").");
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The recovery reads ro.buid.date.utc value from buid.prop. If the value is less than the value in updater-script (like the value highligted in above quote) any recovery will not flash it, neither stock nor custom. Just increaase the value of ro.build.date.utc (in build.prop) to any value higher than the value in updater-script and then flash the zip via recovery.
Detailed Instructions:
1. Open updater-script from the firmware zip. It will be found in /META-INF/com/google/android inside the .zip
2. look at the first line (!less_than_int(1457089250, getprop("ro.bui....
3. The value 1457089250 is taken as an example, your updater-script may have a different value. Keep a note of this value.
4. Install any root file manager like ES file explorer (if you dont have already)
5. Goto /system (the system folder) using the root file manager. Grant root access if prompted
6. Open buid.prop file as text and look for the line "ro.build.date.utc=1446585430"
1446585430 is taken as example, your phone will have a different value.
7. Now increase this value in build.prop to any number greater than the value you noted from updater-script
for example, if my updater-script has 1457089250 this value and buil.prop has 1446585430 this value, I will simply change the value in build.prop to 1546585430 or 1448585430 or 1457089251. Any number greater than 1457089250 will work in my case.
8. Now reboot to recovery (vol down + power)
9. Select "apply update from external sd card" select your firmware zip file, and then select yes to flash. It will take 5-10 min
10. (optional but recommended) Wipe factory/data . If you don't do this, you will see the annoying "Android is upgrading.." screen which takes around 30-40 mins to reach home screen.
Method 2: Without root, requires computer
Short instructions:
As I mentioned earlier, recovery reads "ro.build.date.utc" But you can bypass this check by erasing system partition.
Just do
Code:
fastboot erase system
from fastboot mode and then flash the zip from recovery
Detailed Instructions:
1. Install Asus drivers to your computer. (link in index thread)
2. Download adb_fastboot.zip and extract its contents
3. Reboot your phone to 'bootloader mode'. To do this turn of your phone completely. Hold "volume down Up" button and then press and hold power button. Release power button after Asus logo appears and then release volume down button. Your phone is now in bootloader mode.
4. Connect your phone to pc via a reliable usb cable. Look at your phone screen. It should display "Fastboot mode!"
5. Now go to the folder where you have extracted all the files. Holding down shift key, Right click on any point on white screen. Then click on 'open command window here' from the menu that appears. Command Prompt will open now
6. On command prompt type
Code:
fastboot devices
and hit enter
and check if it is detecting your device.
7. Then type
Code:
fastboot erase system
(this will erase your current OS, you are warned!)
8. After it is done type
Code:
fastboot oem reboot-recovery
to boot into recovery mode
9. Select "apply update from external sd card" select your firmware zip file, and then select yes to flash. It will take 5-10 min
10. (optional but recommended) Wipe factory/data . If you don't do this, you will see the annoying "Android is upgrading.." screen which takes around 30-40 mins to reach home screen.

Successfully downgraded to 1.16.40.763 from 1.17.40.1234 without root
Thanks!

"Failed to mount /asdf" error is harmless you will get that error even on latest twrp. You can ignore the error and use the MM stock recovery like normal. Recovery will do its job it can format, install updates, clear cache and everything, you just need to ignore that /asdf error
But you can use any stock recovery from any firmware version lower than or equal to your current firmware version. Drawbacks: You cannot apply update to MM OTAs if your recovery version doesn't match the current firmware version.
Going back to stock 1.13 is a bad idea. I would recommend you to stay on MM since it has many performance improvements.
But still if you want to go back to lollipop, consider downgrading to the last lollipop update i.e. v1.17.40.1531

I got a 412 mb ota update some days before. I downloaded it. Apply it for proceed. Then it start checking system as usual phone restarted. But update did not happened. Instead this same error show up. Then i can only reboot system. Got an update failed message.since that when i check for updates iam not even getting any. May be it will be solved by a factory reset .but even if i get an ota. The update wont proceed .because the recovery wont allow me to do that
And also that wipe cache partition also results the same error .so without solving this error i cant update to the latest MM too :/ .

In my experience, the most reliable method is to
extract the recovery from the version of stock ROM you want to upgrade or downgrade to
Flash that recovery with fastboot
Wipe /system in fastboot
Reboot to recovery and update with the stock ROM .zip
Or
Even easier, use Sziraqui's fastboot ready .IMG files and just flash them via fastboot.:good:

The recovery is included in the stock ROM zip file. Extract the zip and you will find it inside.
Presumably if you want to flash the stock ROM you have already downloaded it?

Thank you.
Can ZE551KL use the recovery.img from ZE550KL? My ZE551KL has the extra 1700(AWS) band.

Please where are you guys downloading your stock rom from?
The stock zip is NOT flash-able like a custom ROM .zip. That's not how it works. If the Roms you have are custom recovery flash-able, they are not the OEM rom, they have been modified.
All the Roms I have come with a recovery.img file...
Then again if I have to explain how to use fast boot to flash the recovery, there is a good chance you shouldn't be messing around with fast boot.......

Weird ..... I can find recovery.img

Can anyone explain me detail. How to flash recovery only. My bootloader is not unlocked. Someone said that i need to unlock bootloader to flash the stock recovery

You don't need to unlock bootloader for flashing stock recovery that you downloaded from the above mega drive.
To flash the recovery.img (or any .img) You need to have Adb and fastboot files in your pc as well as Asus Zenfone drivers installed
All info and downloads for adb and fastboot can be found here
Search and download Asus ZenFone 2 laser drivers.
Once you have your pc setup with these tools,
With Administrator priveleges, locate the folder where adb.exe and fastboot.exe files are present. Hold down shift key and right click on that folder and select "open command window here". Then reboot your phone to fastboot mode [power off, hold vol up +power, release power when logo appears]
Connect your device to pc.
Type the following command on cmd
Code:
fastboot devices
Output should be something like this
Code:
FCAHSJSJJAKAK fastboot
This command will check if your device is connected or not
If output is blank, device is not being detected.
To flash recovery.img, copy the recovery.img file to the same folder where fastboot.exe exists and then type
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Output is easy to understand, if it says [OKAY] then flashing succeeded

Tried downgrading ze551kl by fastboot erase system then installing .zip from Asus website (via sdcard). All of the Asus updates except the earliest fail with 'fota return code 403'.
1.14.40.550 installs ok but then boots (gets as far as displaying the wallpaper), gives an error message in german (looks like 'android media process stopped') and goes into boot loop. Anyone seen this before?
Also, any way to build a recovery.img from the Asus update files?

invalid boot image whenever i flashed stock recovery,any one know why ?
What i do is flash the stock recovery and flash relock bootloader.

I think OP needs a small correction to enter into FASTBOOT you need to press volume up and power instead of volume down and power buttons

i was in the cmd and started to type the commands but it say that the "fastboot" is not recognized as an external or internal command, operable or batch file...
my phone is open in fastboot and rescue mode and "unlocked"

you need to download minimal adb and fastboot, and run the commands from it. or, you can do it the easy way. just put your update.app file inside /dload/ folder, and do the forced upgrade. if its not working, then fallback to fastboot method.

Thank you

My Device stuck in Erecovery

I can access fastboot. Phone unlock & frp unlock but when i try to flash something i get remote command not allowed

download original firmware for your device e.g. L09C432B386 (the firmware most people on this forum use, is the most up to date from Huawei)
Extract from the zip file the UPDATE.APP file and move it to an external sd card with folder "dload" (without quotation marks)
Then turn off phone. Then hold volume up + down and Power button at same time.
Your phone will then force flash the UPDATE.APP file which will give you stock rom again.
Alternatively, if your fastboot works and you want to flash Lineage, you can flash (through adb) TWRP recovery and then flash lineage.
EDIT:
I used this link (not mine) to download stock firmware. Choose whichever one is best for you:
https://mega.nz/#F!w41RmZKB!IG53JadhjUKgFK8anbctIw!988RHBpK
If you have a decent internet connection, should finish downloading firmware in 20 mins?
Also heads up, you need both the update.zip and the update_data_full...zip. Flash the UPDATE.APP in the update.zip file and then flash the UPDATE.APP in the update_data_full...zip file after. If you only flash the update.zip, you will be stuck in setup wizard.
