AnonD-352156, 14 Jan 2015How to update to 4.4.2 Kit Kat in the Asus zenfone 5, If anyone can give me an answer please?... moreHere is a guide..

Download the correct firmware for your device SKU

http://support.asus.com/download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=ASUS%20ZenFone%205&p=39&s=1&os=32&hashedid=96nqlxHp1VKV4Rdz

(CN, TW, WW), extract the zip file you donloaded, and you will get another zip file, put this file in root of internal sdcard, and you will see an alert on status bar, that there is an update for your device, open this alert and click "Update". Your Zenfone will reboot and will be update.
I cant remember if data in internal sdcard will deleted, so, is a good idea to back up all your data..

PD: depending of your current firmware version, probably will be necessary apply another update before last version.. read in above link, description of each version and check "steps for update" section.
You can apply this update in the same way that I described above..

                                Please guys come & share if & how Hyperthreading technology can be terminated because i guess this is the only culprit of battery life by making this dual core into quad core unnecessarily.

                                      I got this phone and I'm using it for 4 days now. All things are good except for it's battery's performance. It drains so fast especially when you are using a lot of applications. Well, it's has HD screen resolution so, I have no doubt and I understand why the battery can't last that long. I think, use of powerbank will help. For me, it's all about the battery. That's all! No complaint! Guys, please don't compare this to Z3 of Sony or what so ever! They're expensive compare to this. If you are rich and you can afford buying those kind of stuff then go for it and not to go to this one. But I prefer this phone because it's affordable. Thumbs up for this.
