      Bro my asus 5z hasnt been detecting update file even after placing in internal and rebooting...the update patch is of jan and i downloaded the feb patch from asus official sized 1.71gb and pasted it in internal bt to no avail...i have been seeing faster battery drainage since android 10 update as told in ur video..

    Don't buy it. Have been using it for a year and a lot of issues have shown up.
    1st being the camera doesn't work. It blurs far off pictures.
    2nd there is the network issue where the network doesn't show.
    3rd the service center doesn't provide good services and the replacement prices are higher.
    4th there is no relock bootloader firmware once you unlock it.
    Additionally the asus company doesn't care that many customers have complained about issues and they still have not replied. I'd rather go for brands that provides good services and helps solve customers problems.

    1) Is SD 845 still better than 712, 720 and 730?
    2) is there L1 support for video streaming Platforms like Netflix, prime etc.,
    3)how long does it take to get full charged after the android 10 update?
    4) Are there any network connectivity issues?
    5)how is the signal reception?

      3) it takes around 70-80 minutes from 0 to 100, and it charges faster in the beginning(till 50 60% charge)

    • @OnceUponATechie
      @OnceUponATechie  4 роки тому

      Now the 1st step might sound silly, but powering off your phone for 30 seconds and switching back on fixes this issue usually. If you have done it already then it can be due to a recent app you installed which is running in the background or you changed some background settings for the app. This can also be due to an app installed outside from the play store which is not stable or malicious, now remember, this type of app might not be visible to you in the app drawer, so you need to go into settings-apps and see all apps and search it one by one. But if it's still not fixed then data wipe will most probably fix it.
      P.S. - all these steps will help ONLY if you suddenly started experiencing a battery drain issue, a gradual battery drain is common for the phones(like I am after 2 years of use).
      Hope this helps!

    Hey bro, I have some questions regarding the ZenFone 5Z
    1) Is it good for gaming?
    2)Is there any heating/lag/stutter/battery drain issues?
    3) Is there any connectivity issues?
    4) Is Asus aftermarket services any good?
    5) Is it still good for long term usage(planning to buy and use for the next 2-3 years myb)
    I'm just asking as I saw many were complaining about some issues they were facing with their 5z. Quite worried as I'm planning to buy one around next month.
    Supports from Malaysia btw and keep up the good work bro!❤️

    • @OnceUponATechie
      @OnceUponATechie  4 роки тому +3

      No problem with gaming, no heating, lag or battery drain issue. I don't have any issues with respect to connectivity but many people are. I never went to the service centre so not sure about the after-sales services. And lastly not a good phone for long term usage because it is already 2 years old flagship.
      So I won't recommend you to go with this one since you are planning to use it for a long term. And you can watch the whole video if you skipped some parts as I went into detail about this phone (hardware and software both!).
      And thank you so much for supporting the channel, really appreciate it!

    • @OnceUponATechie
      @OnceUponATechie  4 роки тому +1

      I think only Asus guys would be able to do it since they have all the necessary firmware/software to do it. But there is just 1% chance that this might work. Here it goes -
      Switch of your phone. Now hold the power button and volume down button, as soon as you see the logo/the bootloader unlocked warning release the power button but don't release the volume down button. Now you'll see a black screen with blue and yellow text on it. In this mode, the touch screen won't work so volume up and down will work for maneuver and power button for select. So go to factory reset and select it and go through all the prompts after that. Now 2 things can happen, 1, your phone will go to Android 8 with which it was released (which seems unlikely) and data wiped, or 2, your phone will be on the same Android update but all the data will get wiped.
      Either way, your data will be wiped, so if I were you, I would definitely give it a shot.

I have been using this phone for almost 1 and a half years and had no problem as such until recently ( three days ago) all of a sudden it got completely shut down while watching a music video on youtube. Before the shutdown, I saw it was 71% charged. Again I put it for charging but charging also stopped. Nothing works, the screen is blacked out. Due to lockdown, I couldn't take it to ASUS service station so I took it to the normal mobile repairing shop just to check the problem and after checking it they said, the IC is gone and needs replacement and it will cost 3000-5000 without any guarantee/ warranty. Pls suggest what to do? its a great phone and I don't want to lose it, at the same time I can't wait for so long to get it repaired by the ASUS service station. Never thought all of a sudden something will happen with this phone.

      That's unfortunate, this thing happened with my HTC One S. Well, I am not an expert, but it looks like we will be getting some relaxation after 17th May, so the service centres might become operational. Here's the Asus customer care number - 18002090365
      That being said, if a local shop is charging so much for the repair then I am pretty sure Asus will charge even more and I don't think paying so much is sensible. If you trust the local shop then let them repair.

    However since last update that I did in first last week of February.....my phone started giving Sim card not installed issue.. Initially I was getting that pop up....but gradually the frequency of that pop up increased and the phone was not getting the network at all along with this the other issue was that In settings>storage the 'Other Apps' storage kept on increasing and occupied the entire storage capacity.
    I did factory reset 4 to 5 times but still the Sim card Issue was not resolved...then I took it to Asus Service center....they flashed and downgraded the software to Android 9 and asked me not to upgrade the system.
    I was ok..and using it since last 5 days....first two days went smooth then there was the same issue for next 2 days...and now since yesterday its working fine again.
