No, this is not for selfie, this is for ze550kl.
build nos of zenfone laser and selfie are different.
This one based on latest version of zenfone laser ze550kl.

Superb work
I am new to Zenfone laser Ze550kl. I have two queries below
1.We need to unlock Boot-loader to execute this?
2.and this is void warranty?
Thanks for your work.

You don't need to unlock the bootloader and I'm not sure about warranty but it is usually safe to assume that you will void your warranty.
The good thing is that you can always reflash the stock rom and that should return it to factory condition but can't guarantee your warranty won['t be voided. Someone else might be able to confirm for sure.

when you flash stock firmware that will re-flash everything & your warranty would not be void.

Hey Buddy, I am in Big Trouble this time. While Flashing System.img file, i am getting the following error
Command - fastboot flash system system.img
error - cannot load system.img
Can you tell me what's the issue here? or can you provide me your Fastboot ADB Zip file will be great helpful
waiting for your answer

Just wait & let command got completed,it will take some times as file too big to send.
it will sparse & send in parts, whole process will complete around 15 minute.

command is not starting at all. just showing error like screenshot i attached

what is the size of image size, did you extract file correctly ?
actual size of system image is 2.84 GB (3,05,09,60,328 bytes).
other commands executed or not ?

go in the extracted folder where system.img.7z.001-006 file is. click on anyone of these six files and decompress with 7-zip file manager.
now u will get a single file SYSTEM.img of about 2.4 gb. put this system.img in the adb and fastboot folder.
now flash the system.
happened the same with me a few hours ago.

I experienced that same error on that system.img and solved it by
1st: Not using administrative cmd C:\Users\(pcname)> on cmd
2nd: I just put those 3 files on C:\Users\(pc name)\
only recovery and boot img work when on adb folder.. dunno if it's on windows 10 but I got it working on above directory

just xposed needed now
can we flash xposed zip file in stock recovery?via adb or any other way?
though there is some method of flashing xposed framework without recovery which we used on 551 ML..via adb only..
anyone shed some light on this?

Stuck on mi boot screen avec flashing boot and recovery using fastboot

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to install TWRP + Boot on my Mi5 in order to install Xiaomi.eu rom later.
I have been following these steps: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads...r-xiaomi-mi5-unlocked-bl-only-released.31231/
All went well:

Until the moment to reboot to TWRP.
It just displays the mi logo forever and doesn't boot. It's been 10min now.
Is that normal?
Should I continue to wait?
Thx

After 30min with no progress I decided to stop the phone.
I pressed the power button for few seconds. The mi logo disappeared. I stopped pressing. But straight away the phone is trying to reboot and displays again the mi logo forever
F*********************ck!

Managed to enter in Fastboot mode! Don't ask me how.
No I guess, from what I read in various places I need to flash a fastboot DEV ROM using MiFlash?
Seem to be the procedure when you are in bootloop.
I guess I'll have to unlock again the phone once this ROM will be flashed?

Ok I'm back on track. I've downloaded the last Mi5 Global DEV fastboot ROM (gemini_global_images_6.5.30_20160516.0000.22_6.0_global_9cee9512c7.tgz)
I flashed it using MiFlash. But I kept the storage. I probably should have flashed all because now it keeps on say it can't find the device ID and I get some java stack trace errors complaining about SQLite access problems.
Tomorrow I'll try again to flash TWRP. We will see if it does the same :-/

That's it I've managed to flash TWRP + xiaomi.eu stable rom.
I think the part that generated the bootloop was the fact that I didn't run the following command after flashing TWRP:
Code:
fastboot reboot
I rebooted manually using power button + vol. up.
Now everything is working fine.

Post proper log.
Bootloader lock or unlock?
It seens that you are tring to flash wrong boot.img cause it shows that length error means boot.img size is higher than the actual partion is

Can you enter erecovery??

Hello. Hope you have enough data on your plan. First download the firmware from this link https: // androidhost . ru / 9X9 (remove the spaces while pasting). Once downloaded extract the contents from the zip file to your pc. Before proceeding make sure your smartphone is charged. In the extracted contents you will have a folder named 'Software'. Inside that folder you will have a folder named 'dload'. Copy the 'dload' folder to the root directory of a formatted sd card. Once it is copied insert the sd card inside your honor 9 lite and press the power, volume up and down buttons simultaneously until your phone enters recovery mode. From there it will take a few minutes for the software installation to be completed. Once the installation is finished your phone will be rebooted and you will have to finish the initial setting up process. If you follow these steps you can recover your phone but you will loose all the data previously present in the phone. Hope this works for you. Please reply if this is successful.

Very late to the party, but wanted to thank you for a comprehensive, helpful answer.
The fact lilolahcen didn't respond is hopefully because his phone is working once again.
Good post ?

Thanks. I myself have gone through many guides available here at xda. So I hope I can be of some use for someone who is facing the same problems I have faced.
