[GUIDE] Marshmallow Root Guide for ZE500KL

ATTENTION!
You MUST read all the guide BEFORE doing it, if you do it without reading all of it first you may ends up bricking your phone!

Prerequisites:
Asus ZE500KL (may work on ZE500KG, but haven't tested, do it on your own risk) on Marshmallow, NOT LOLLIPOP!
Also, it must have fully booted AT LEAST one time, otherwise, you'll soft-brick it.

If your phone is not on Marshmallow, you can use THIS guide instead

Download and put the unlocker zip file and the SuperSu zip file in the phone

How To:
1 - Install adb and fastboot driver (follow THIS guide)

Now you can connect the phone to your computer

2 - Reboot in fastboot mode with one of the following method:

a -Volume Up while booting up

b -With adb, after enabling USB debugging in developer settings, using:

Code:

---

adb reboot bootloader

---

Now that you are in bootloader, you have to boot in TWRP,
download THIS recovery (is the twrp one) and boot in to it, using this command:

IMPORTANT: DON'T FLASH IT OR YOU WILL GET BOOTLOOP!!!

Code:

---

fastboot boot TWRP-x-x-x-x.img

---

(Obviusly the recovery name must be the one you downloaded)
IMPORTANT: DON'T FLASH IT OR YOU WILL GET BOOTLOOP!!!

It should automaticaly enter in recovery.
Now you MUST flash FIRST ZE500KL_BootloaderUnlock.zip, otherwise you'll brick your phone

Btw, the recovery will mount your phone's memory, so you can put now the files in the phone, if you forgot to do it before

AFTER you installed the unlocker zip, you can install the SuperSu zip

When the install is complete, clear the cache and reboot your phone, now you can enjoy your root!
