1 day after removing/disabling unnecessary apps, battery life definitely improved. Getting more than the usual 4 hours of screen on time

Here is list of what I removed. If your sms stops working (I couldn't send/receive SMS after removing something), gotta install Go Sms

Using the built in battery saver app, brightness is reduced by 30%, data is off when screen is off.

Actual battery drain when screen is off is 1% per hour. Actual screen on time reaches 6 hours

Cannot lah. After root no warranty. Besides asus should allow us to uninstall the bloatware. Misleading to say 6hours if u nvn say what usage. play game or watch video or surf?
Zenfone 2 battery is seriously cmi.

Do you know how root works? Its just adding super su app in system partition. To unroot just remove that or flash stock firmware

I cannot make out going calls.

Send phone to 313 they put in debugger patch.

Still not working.

Spent 2hrs on phone with ASUS Singapore trying to solve.

Still cannot...until read hwz found a solution.

Idiots at ASUS don't even know simple solution.

They ask me what is solution?

Not going to say...

Let the idiots at Asus find out themselves I am not doing their job for them.

Even the Indians at Bangalore call center cannot help.

The solution I found on HWZ is too simple for them to even try!.

That's quite misleading, so why not go root a Samsung phone, remove SU and bring to their service centre, you think they would still service it for you?

Root at your own risk. flash rom or delete stuff then Brick laio see how. Those using custom roms can say anything NPNT lol. (ur case got pic u win)

Can some Hero go try try test water see if asus know if we root & unroot b4? lol

Advice is root & try custom rom with older android phones no more warranty or spare phone that u can afford to lose.

Those ZenFone uses who take a little time reading thru these pages will know the solution(that's what I did)

If the 'experts' at Asus also bother to read they will easily find out.

313 Orchard got so many pissed off ZenFone users.

The thing which got me was their arrogance to just installed a debugger patch and send me on m merry way after waiting 45min.

"Ask Asus what is the warranty for".

Their attitude is nothing wrong with phone -straight away blame sim card.But Telco already tell me check with Asus !

I am not free to run around all I want is a working phone.
