I have captured and saved for people that DONT have or have problems downloading the OTA.zip
think of this as a safety net rather than the only way to install
UK RETGB lollipop 5.0.2
Build version LXB22.46-28.1
System version 22.26.1.titan_retgb.retgball.en.GB retgb
you need to be on stock 21.11.23 RETGB kitkat to use this, fingerprint check , no root, stock recovery
method 1
copy zip to internal storage and goto about phone and check for update to software
method 2
place on external sd card and manually boot to android recovery and install
UK retgb Lollipop 5.0.2
remember its named after your old kitkat firmware not as a new lollipop firmware
RETDE 5.0.2 OTA.zip
lollipo
Auto brightness is bit flickery seems OK so far

does not require unlocked bootloader is original
I think they rolled out all the OTAs for GB at the same time, I got mine earlier today but didn't notice.
PS: Its my birthday, thank you Motorola!
Just got notified of the pending update on my retGB model, can't do the update just at the moment but fingers crossed it fixes the notification problem some people (and me) have with the phone.
Does any one have the stock 21.11.23 RETGB kitkat recovery to share please? :crying:

Hey pals,
Good evening .After a long i'm back. I was rooted and today only i fully unroot my device 820U dual sim. Running lollipop v5.0.2 with software number 2.10.720.1
I was prompted for basically 2 updates for mail and system enhancement 1.99MB both were installed successfully.
After that i got again update for system enhancement of something 89.xx MB update. It was downloaded and i pressed installed as we all do. Stock recovery prompted and installation begin. In a while might be after 10% it threw me status 7 error.
Is anybody experiencing this issue ?
What could be best possible fix ?
Status 7 error in OTA, shall i edit updater script or could something else causing the issue ?
Might be if i am not mistaken then this 89.xx MB update was 2.10.720.4
I'm in official rom and re-locked bootloader.
Please share your views and recommendations.
It might be due to changes that you made to system partition before so unless you flash a lollipop RUU you cant update though ota.(there was a problem like this on my other HTC phone and I was unrooted and on relocked bootloader same as you but I couldnt update untill I flash RUU and started over.)
Can u give the link of lollipop ruu ??

Got that brother. I rolled back to KK from Lolli and made OTA for lolli.
After getting android L, i again installed all 4 updates before android M. Now my software number is 2.10.720.5 and running lolli.

Hello to everyone.
I would kindly ask for your help.
A friend of mine has a zenphone 5. She is experiencing various problems with the playstore synching, viber synching etc and getting errors with play services.
The phone is on android Kit Kat (4.4.2 if I recall correctly).
As I am more experienced with phones, she asked to me to have a look at it and see what can be done.
I do not want to root the phone and/or install an unofficial rom (like lineage) as I will not be the one using the phone, and my friend is completely unaware of what to do in case there is a problem with the phone.
So my best thing would be to perform a backup, then wipe all data and finally update the firmware to the latest official available version.
As I never had an asus phone before (I am more experienced in rooting/updating unofficial roms etc to sony and samsung phones) I kindly ask for your help.
The phone is a zenphone 5 T00F has a WW sku. I attach a screenshot of the firmware version. I found on asus website and downloaded the latest firmware UL-ASUS_T00F-WW-2.22.40.540-user.
How do I install it?
Also, I believe that there is also a lollipop official update for this phone? Where can I find it and how can I Install it?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanx.
Hello , you want the phone to be in stock rom , right ? @madvinegar
1) update to latest kitkat version by ota updates . Latest kitkat version is 2.22.40.540
2) if you want to update to android l then after updating to latest kitkat just place the file (rom update zip ) into internal storage ( not inside any folder just in the internal storage ) . A pop up will come just tap it the update will be done .
3) But if pop up does not come then just reboot your phone once . The latest version of lollipop which you need to download is 3.24.40.87
Alternatively you can sideload the official firmware , if you know how to :laugh: just make sure you download the rom as per your device sku
stock rom official

Yes you are right. I had to scroll further down.
One odd thing happened.
As you have seen in the screenshot I uploaded in my 1st post, the SKU of the phone seems to be WW.
So I downloaded the update for WW, but when I tried to apply it, I got an error saying that the update failed. I think the reason was that the SKU found on the phone was "CUCC". How can this be...?
In any case I am downloading now the firmware update 2.22.40.540 for CUCC and I will try again. What is the difference between CUCC and WW...?
Also, I don't see that there is a lollipop update for CUCC. Can I use the SKU of another firmware? i.e. WW?

So in my case I will have to download and install first the WW 1.14 (not the CN 1.14) since my formware now is the ASUS_T00F_WW_user_1.13.40.8_20140516_17063.
Correct?

So, I finally managed to solve the problem and update the zenphone 5 to lollipop.
My problem was the recovery image which was either faulty and/or different version from the firmware. To be precise, the recovery was CUCC, while the firmware was WW.
So, to solve the problem I did the following:
1. Using fastboot, I flashed the latest recovery image from WW 2.22.40.540
2. Again using fastboot, I flashed the latest fastboot image from WW 2.22.40.540.
3. Then using ADB I flashed the latest firmware WW 2.22.40.540
So, after successfully flashing the latest kitkat firmware WW 2.22.40.540, then I downloaded the latest lollipop firmware WW 3.24.40.87, placed the zip file inside the internal storage of the phone and rebooted. After reboot, a notification was waiting for me to update to lollipop. I pressed OK to continue, the phone rebooted, installed the firmware, updated all android apps, and ... voila ... the phone rebooted to Android Lollipop 5.0
@Boomshiva I thank you very much for all your kind help and guidance.

I was trying to sideload the firmware many times, but I was getting an error.
Only after I flashed first the correct recovery image, I managed to sideload the firmware.
All is well now.
I have a Zenfone 3 Z012DE and I do not know what firmware to install, since I have seen different models in the roms and otas uploaded to the forum, I do not know how to check the correct model to which my equipment corresponds
Is possible update to Nougat?, not link for my Firmware of my model ...
Edit: ZE552KL (Asus Z012DE)
Thanks
First off, as a new user I am unable to supply you the link directly to the page but I can direct you to where you would find your update:
If you search in Google "Zenfone 3 Z012DE" (Without quotation marks obviously) then the first link should be an Asus page. Once the page opens, you will see a bunch of gallery pictures of your device, near the top right under the search bar you should see Support, click it. Then, go to Driver & Tools, select Android as your OS and a few boxes should appear. On the second box, you will see the latest Nougat update for your device (WW-14.2020.1706.53). If you notice in your screenshot, your software code starts with WW, only download firmwares that start with WW off Asus support page since those are the only ones that will work with your devices. Unfortunately, if your phone works the same way as mine, your build indicates the date 09/09/2016 which means the latest update may not work because it will refuse to update on a build that is older than 01/20/2017 (I think that's the exact date) in which case you will have to download and upgrade each version at a time until you get to the lastest firmware.
To install the updates, copy them over to an SD card from a PC or download it through your phone and make sure you know where to find it on the SD card, boot into recovery and hit update from SD card.

Flash WW_13.20.10.152 first.
After flashing, update your device to WW_14.2015.1701.8/ WW_14.2015.1701.13
After upgrading to Nougat, flash the new WW_14.2020.1706.53 firmware.
P.S: These update files can be found on ASUS' website.
Hope this helps

Good afternoon, I can install firmware ww15 (Android 8) ASUS_Z012DE?
At the moment I have the firmware WW_13.20.10.152.
Do I have to install the firmware WW_14.2015.1701.8 and then the WW_14.2020.1706.53?
Or can I move from the WW_13.20.10.152 firmware directly to WW-15.0410.1712.31 or WW-15.0410.1801.40?
