                      Just go to settings, storage. Here on the righthand side top corner you will find a small usb icon, touch on that to get your usb options again. Click the first option and your phone will be recognasied as USB again.
                      Hope this helps :-)

                                Only some territories for Zenfone 4 and 6.

                                For Zenfone 5 only LTE version has "official" release of Kitkat.

                                The one I am playing with is not on any site, and I am not sure if this will be final version released for it. Likely not.

                                        If course it won't be mentioned even when there are improvements.

                                        I have 4.4.2 on Zenfone 5 loaded, and one of the others on 4.3 pulled them off the charger at the same time, and they are both idle - 2 SIMs each, identical telecoms, sitting one next to the other, 3G on, no calls, several email addresses (same ones) and same apps sync enabled.

                                        At this moment, the JB has 88% battery and 92% on KitKat.

                                        But this is not a scientific experiment and there could be other things affecting this.
