Thanks! Installing now.
Iv'e got a bad battery drain that I think is associated with one of the Asus apps. I've seen battery life as low as four hours.
I've got my fingers crossed that this will fix it.
 
WOW!
My phone finally went to sleep! It had been constantly "Awake" and now it's not.
Huge thanks to ASUS!
 
I don't see it on the fix list so not expecting it, but can somebody test sending MMS (attach a photo) while connected to Wifi? I already switched my main SIM to a different phone and only have a voice-only SIM in there now or I would check myself.

While not connected to WiFi at the moment I do have it turned on and I was able to successfully send an mms.

You would have to be connected to a Wifi network to test it since disconnected you would be using the data network already. Also for anyone else, I'm talking about using the stock Asus messaging app.
 
Hi there, I don`t know why, but people on ASUS ZenTalk Forum talking, as crazy, about Cache wiping after recent update of ZenFone2. Is it really necessary to wipe the phone`s cache? Isn`t dangerous things to do? Thanks.

There's nothing dangerous about it. It's a good thing to do after an update (and also on other occasions) but not necessary if you are not having any problems.

Do you mean Wi-Fi only? I have not had any issue send a picture over text with my phone with Wi-Fi on with cellular on. I just tied it again without any problem.

No, not wifi only without data. You're the first person who has mentioned being able to do that. Most of us cannot send MMS when connected to Wifi (with data still turned on) when using Asus Messenger app because it will not switch to data to send. It also will not receive MMS in this circumstance. I had a bug filed for it.
 
Loving ASUS for all these updates. I honestly can't tell if they do anything because I haven't had any issues with my ZF2, but there's just something nice about seeing a system update frequently available.

Interesting. Here is a screen grab of the two pics I sent to my work phone and my work phone with the pics received.

Just manually checked and still don't have this update. 😕 I expect it'll show up eventually...

OTA not working any more for mine, a WW version. Other updates did work fine. Had to download this from the website and place it in root of internal SD folder. After restarting the phone acknowledged it and updated.
