Download Zenfone 2 Stock Rom:

First of all, you need to identify the firmware version installed on your zenfone 2. You can find this in software information, under the build number. Just navigate to Settings -> About -> Software Information -> Build number.

It looks something like WW_12.16.5.61. So, here your software version is 12.16.5.61. Now visit Asus Official Device Support page and download the original stock rom from there.

How to Flash Stock Rom on Zenfone 2:

In this tutorial I'm taking WW_12.16.6.61 as an example.

1. Once you have downloaded the full stock rom, rename the zip file to WW_12.16.7.61.
2. The reason why we did this is, by renaming the zip file the phone gets notified that a new version of software is available to install.
3. Copy the renamed zip file to internal memory of your zenfone 2.
4. Disconnect the phone from pc, you'll get a notification of available update.
5. Install it. Now the phone reboots with the fresh stock rom flashed in it.

This process does not wipe your internal or external sdcard. But it removes ROOT and restores Custom recovery to stock recovery.
