            Ncus, 02 Aug 2014Does anyone know, why Asus Zenfone 5 just loading and doesn't start? May be software issue. Just try with Hard Reset.

              2.Slide left to reach Preloaded
              3.You can see lot of applications like Google Drive ,Asuss Webstorage ,Google play stand etc.

                    Not sure whether it is carried forward in the subsequent version.

                        Does Asus provide any system update for improving the battery? I have gone through the firmware updates they provided in their website, and the update for my version doesn't include improvement in the battery performance.

                              I recently bought a zenfone 5 8gb. all the features are good except for the battery. it is draining fast. I was using the internet, for 2 minutes the charge dropped by 1%, and the same thing happened for games as well. I don't know whether there is a defect in the battery or not. Is this the normal performance of the battery or is the battery defective? please help me.
