New update WW 2.20.40.174 - ZenFone 2 General

Just installed this new OTA update on my ZE551ML (Z00AD), no problem found so far.
The ASUS site doesn't mention it yet, so no clues as to its changes

It's to fix the storage bug.
See the SS.

Further to that, regular security updates are really nice to have.
Most vendors of phones in this price range simply forget their devices after releasing them, ASUS is still working on its phones. Slowly perhaps, but still..

Ota link for ze550ml? Ty!

Agree, but these days I'd rather have them focussing on the MM release

Confirmed, only internal storage bugfix:
http://www.asus.com/zentalk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=70265&extra=page=1&mobile=2

atleast Asus is providing software updates. Unlike other major smartphone manufacturers.. like samsung.. 1st promising an update and later refusing to give.

Thanks for all the info.

Any OTA link for ZE550ML? Ty

I've never had a storage issue. I don't understand why they have never worked on the battery issue. Ready to sell this damn phone is anyone is looking for another. $225 firm and it's the 128GB / 4GB version lol

Unless you've skipped the .168 update you should have/had internal space decreasing without a reasonable explanation.
My 32GB apparently freed up 1.5-2GB of internal storage after installing the .174 update, FWIW.
About battery life, Android M should help somehow..

I updated when my device is rooted, and I'm stuck in a bootloop with no idea what to do lol

Sorry to hear that, try having a look here:

Off course i know but what i mean is why no something new while on 5.0,not even 5.0.1 or 5.02.
And the update just fix the hole from previous update and that like circle over and over.

Because all the fixes and features have been back ported. No need to a version to do that.

+pardon me. Wasn't the last one 5.0.1 for g3? This one is 5.0 . I'm pretty sure it was 5.0.1.
But the update rised performance, gov change or something, they obviously sacrificed some battery for performance.

Huawei is a funny company!
hooray!
It's a great news! Honor 6 is an amazing device and it's extremely good of Huawei to release M on it.
It will be amazing when Huawei opens up kernel sources for this device.

aleast huawei provides updates to most of their devices
Other brands don't even provide a single update to $300 and below devices and huawei always gives 2 major upgrades even to 4c and 4x.
I mean, you can actually flash lollipop no problem on 3 UK, I did it. It's just the OTA isn't there yet which means there's something wrong from 3's side, not Huawei.

But there are two oddities:
1- file.Zip is in ZE550KL folder [emoji27] [emoji27]
2- the name of the file says Z00A and even buildprop contained in the zip say the same thing. (build.ze551...) [emoji16] [emoji16]
