[deleted post]You probably customised keyboard before update.
Power off the phone.
Press power and volume down buttons at the same time and continue holding them until phone turns on into DOS lookalike screen. Release buttons and press volume up to confirm.
Now choose full recovery.
Let it finish.
After reboot at the end of process, enter your gmail address again so settings and apps get downloaded again.

If OTA, you could have trouble if you OTA update to Kit Kat. But if you upgrade with full 800 MB file, you should be ok.

I currently have version V1.18.40.9 on my zenfone 5. I purposely didn’t upgrade it to kitkat as i came to know about the various bugs it has, but today when i tried to check for a upgrade it was showing me as “No new upgrade available”
Being still on jellybean it should show me the kitkat upgrade as it did 2 days ago but now there is no kitkat update available. I later checked on their website to do a manual update but i couldn’t find any kitkat firmware.
So my question is, is ASUS discontinuing the kitkat update due to a lot of bugs that it has?

But not to writing to SD card or pendrive.
you need to do full restore from recovery partition and most of your problems will go away.
However on writing to SD - sorry, KitKat no longer allows that unless you root the phone and make apps to run under superuser.
