TWRP Recovery for ASUS ZenFone 2 Laser (ZE551KL/ZE600KL)

Team Win Recovery Project 3.x, or twrp3 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

Changelogs:

Completely new theme - Much more modern and much nicer looking (by z31s1g)

True Terminal Emulator - Includes arrow keys, tab and tab completion, etc. (by _that)

Language translation - It won’t be perfect and especially some languages that require large font files like Chinese & Japanese won’t be availble on most devices. Also some languages may only be partially translated at this time. Feel free to submit more translations to OmniROM’s Gerrit. (mostly by Dees_Troy)

Flashing of sparse images - On select devices you will be able to flash some parts of factory images via the TWRP GUI (by HashBang173)

Adopted storage support for select devices - TWRP can now decrypt adopted storage partitions from Marshmallow

Reworked graphics to bring us more up to date with AOSP - includes support for adf and drm graphics (by Dees_Troy)

SuperSU prompt will no longer display if a Marshmallow ROM is installed

Update exfat, exfat fuse, dosfstools (by mdmower)

Update AOSP base to 6.0

A huge laundry list of other minor fixes and tweaks

Bugs:

- ADB works only with system mounted (no root at the moment). As soon as /sbin folder is writeable I will re-patch adbd binary
