Hi Rmatanguihan,

Thank you for your reply, I know how to upgrade, I have knowledge how to update firmware via FOTA,
My concern here is, If there is someone here, who has a possession of Stock Flash Rom for ZC520TL - Version MRA58K.WW_Phone-13.x.x.x
that contains a "MT6737T_Android_scatter.txt" file, which can work with SP_Flash_Tools, and flashing it into my phone, Because unfortunately,
I got a wrong "ROM" file from web Its Russian or Ukrainian Multilingual package, I need the Philippines Version of MRA58K.WW_Phone-13.x.x.x

If someone here who can provide or who have sources, please reply here, Thank you in Advance.

Finally, I already have the answer for the long lost concern,
This solution of mine is only intended for those who got bricked their Zenfone 3 Max (ZC520TL) WW_Phone Version
The working stock firmware link is: https://mega.nz/!GFFnQJQb!dJJ9mw ... JXHqdzzBwEIW63Iikfo
and you just need to find a latest SP_Flash_Tool to flash it on your Bricked Zenfone 3 Max,
The struggles I've encountered since day 1 of troubleshooting this device is, I can't install the MediaTek Preloader driver,
Actually: You don't have to do that, If you already have the SP_Flash_Tool because this software will do it automatically just for you,
How to Flash using SP_Flash_Tool with the Freware-Firmware That I've given in the link,
First run your SP_Flash_Tool
Second Find/Open the Scatter File.txt from the downloaded Stock Rom, Then let it finish the reading,
Third is choose the Download Only Option before hitting the "Download" button,
Fourth Hit the "Download" button first, before plugging on the USB your Bricked Phone,
Fifth just wait for the process to finish and you will See the Green Circle with Check on the center,
Sixth you can now safely remove your Zenfone 3 Max Flashed on the USB cable and then Power It On.

False that I've learned with this Stock Firmware, The IMEI for Sim Card 2 is invalid, so maybe you just need to Update to the latest Firmware version from ASUS Official Support Website, to fix the issues, I'm still Trying it now, I'll keep it posted here.

Hi man, I have the same Chinese ROM and even it has Gapps, I can't update the firmware, my zenfone it's not bricked, what happen if I try to flash the phone with flash tools? I'm going crazy, please help me, a friend has a zenfone bought on best buy and mine is bought on eBay. Hope you answer ASAP, greetings and sorry for my bad English 

Hi zenfans_43F9,

You can add me on Google Hangouts at: mckloon1209@gmail.com and We'll try to figure out the issue,
and may I know the version of the firmware you want to flash? because I have MRA58K.WW_Phone-13.0.1.33-20161022 flashed and working on my current device.

thanks...

i have also the same phone model, i flash the firmware that you use but stuck at ASUS (in search of incredible) with a rotating dots..

Can you please provide updated link? Unfortunately, These ASUS guys don't want to install your phone with the STOCK firmware because they said it is not included in the warranty. ASUS Update sucks.
