You cannot copy data obb directly to MicroSD because it's not working. You must first installed apps and data into phone internal memory, only after that you have a choice to moving data to MicroSD card via built-in 'Move data to SD' in Setting - Apps - Moveable. System created hidden folder name '.android_obb' on MicroSD for data linking from the original source.

    AnonD-9853, 17 Jun 2014Actually Zenfone 4 has capability moving apps to MicroSD Ca... moreYes, i mean the data, you cannot play games if the data is in the external microsd, i tried that already.
    I tried to installed GTA 3 (apk) and i keep the data on the Android/Obb in the external micro-sd and the game wont run, it's try to download the data through internet. but when i copy the data in the internal (emulated external-sd) the game runs perfectly, i think the problem is ASUS make the internal memory as an emulated external memory, thats why BBM cannot read the DCIM folder that located in the real external micro-SD.
    I hope ASUS fix this thing, or it kinda annoying when we want to send photo via BBM we must copy the photo to the internal memory first.

      jonathanho_98, 17 Jun 2014it is will lack after upgrade to android 4.4 (kitkat)? I s... moreNonsense, there's no reason to dismissed upgrading to KitKat v4.4.2. This new android version is significant upgrade since it could done great optimization to your Android phone with more improvements compared with current JellyBean 4.3. Although KitKat 4.4 may slightly not be different from Jellybeam 4.3, but it has more enhancements and improvements to the operating system, file management, security features, dialer pad and more. Some of my friends which are already upgrade their LG G2 and Nexus 5 to KitKat said very satisfied eventhough a few apps not working properly after upgrading new android but these minor issue wont be a problem and can be solved from apps updates.

          XeGiL, 10 Jun 2014do we have to install it at play store?I'm also using alternative keyboard apps due to some bugs or glitches from default ASUS keyboard. You can download it from link below. Make sure to enable Smart keyboard Pro at Setting Language & Input.

My phone only drop 2% for 2 hours when left idle without any connection to WiFi, GPS or Bluetooth.

Just open SETTING - APPS, then look at Tab MOVEABLE - choose your apps and tap button 'Move To SD Card' (only if MicroSD Card exist). It does not moving all files completely but only data files which are usually consuming large space could be shifted to Sd card.

                I'm using this phone for couple a days.
                First Impression :
                - A Little small in physically but tough
                - i bought the 8gb version
                - a little poor battery life 1170mah, although i got 2 ea battery in the package, this is my activity : i disconnect the charger @6:00 AM with mobile data on, standby with bbm,whatsapp,path and facebook on until 2:35 pm now, it's still 41%. i'm using just to check path facebook and reply bbm.
                - bug in the BBM application, I'm sure this bug it's from the phone firmware / OS, i cannot send any photos or pic from the micro sd (external micro SD), i hope ASUS fix this bug immediately
                - I tested a few games including real racing 3 and all work perfectly, a little glitch maybe its because using intel chipset, but it running smoothly.
                - for a cheap phone, the 5 mpix autocus camera is good enough.
                - It cannot move application data to external micro sd card. maybe it need to be rooted.

                we'll this is one of the best cheap branded smartphone i ever used, low price with medium spec phone.

                            I use this phone for 1 week already.. some app or game are not compatible with this phone... I mean that some after downloading game in play store you cannot play the game it just say the game stop working.. probably the game not optimize for x68 processor..

                            Another problem is the battery life
                            .. I already update the firmware, use batttsaver, use only WiFi and about 10percent brightness it only last for 3hours 5minuts..

                            The phone also have overheat problem.. the battery temperature reach 44 Celsius when contious use .. this is by far the hottest phone I ever use..

                            The front camera is also the worse I ever use.. it's so dark you can't even see you own face..

                            Now for the good , it's has the fastest process in its price range. Its intel 1.2 dual core (but it's has hypetread technology that make it's look like a quad core processor)the ram is 1 gb is good.. 512 is not acceptable anymore ..
                            Gorilla glass 3 work really well I never use any screen protecter and still no scratch..

                            Trust me I write this using my zenfone 4.. I know it's a cheap fone and I should not expect much.. but I feel cheated by the poor battry life and camera quality..
                            if you don't care about the problem buy it.
