      For those worried about how to differentiate between Chinese and international version, I've loaded some Chinese model A500CG with 8 GB eMMC and 1 GB RAM, 2 GHz Atom CPU, Chinese Android photos.

      They are on mega-networks.asia/ZenFone/CN/

      Ny03rZK - if phone has printing on the box in Chinese and lacks the line of configuration

      MTxiwfG - If the IMEI starts with 35223906

      195EX2a - if the Intel logo is on a sticker and not printed on the back plate (and if plastic wrap is written in Chinese)

      Hope this makes it clearer.

                        If you are upgrading, you should not lose any data or apps, unless your phone was rooted.

                        Still a good idea to have backup to gmail account enabled.

                              Is it possible that the driver is installed wrong? Maybe under device manager you have any unknown device - if so, remove it first.

                              Yes, it is possible to copy to SD card and then use File Manager to place it into the internal memory.

                              It might even work from root of SD, but I never tried that.

                              Make sure to unzip the file you downloaded, don't place .zip in the phone.

                                      battery life is worst for zenfone 5. does anyone have same problem. its 2110mAh. bt actually battery is not giving that best output. battery drains out without any use of smartphone. and from 100% to 10% within 6 hrs with just no use (battery was fully charged at night, but in morning it showed me just 10%). plz tell me what to do now if your battery is poor what is the use of all these extraordinary features ?
