ASUS Zenfone 2

[kennyboy]

hey, try to uninstall the update of android system webview.. I suspect the update are crashing some apps..
I believe it is the same issue as the Instagram crash

It's not even installed on my device. And going to the PS link says its not compatible with device.

I'm using the Zenfone 2 (ZE551ML 2G/32G).

Is there any reliable method to root this device. I am on ZE551ML

Those probably wanted to try the new Zen UI can try this Zen UI launcher to quench your thirst!

ASUS earlier announced that ZE551ML 2GB/32GB model is already avail together with the 550 variant. But M1/SH store still do not over this model. Anyone know why and when would this be avail? I know the 4GB version will be out on 16 May but I am not looking for this model. Many thanks.

Hi guys

Gotten my zenfone 2 and pasted tempered glass screen protector.

Strangely my proximity sensor is not working after i paste the glass screen protector.

Make a phone call and my screen will go blank . If i take out the protector all is good


Any one having this issue? or any one bought a glass screen protector with hole on the proximity sensor area?

Hi creativetec,

I had the same problem when I pasted the tempered glass screen protector that my wife bought (I can check the brand tonight). But for my case I'm sure the issue is due to the screen protector because I tested that screen protector on my S4, the same black screen happened. Now going without screen protector for my zenfone 2. Do let me know if you come across a suitable tempered glass screen protector for zenfone 2. Thanks.

Asus quite clever to allow free use of their launcher. This will garner new users to their phones.

Dude. It's XDA. Asus didn't "allow" them to do anything.

Would like to know as well. All 3 Asus Brand stores are quite far from my place. I stay in Jurong.

Using tethering and setting up Zenfone 2 as hot spot, my iPad and iPhone could not connect to internet. Anyone having same issues? How to resolve this? It maybe an Android to iOS compatible issue.

I don't have issues connecting to the Zenfone 2 as wireless AP. Tried both desktop (Ubuntu) and other Android phones. I don't have any iOS devices so can't comment.

Hmmm.. the back covers of the 5" ZF2 and 5.5" ZF2 phones don't look the same from pics (save for the size).. the 5.5" ones have a brushed, shiny metallic look but the 5" ones don't.. am i right?
