Go to settings >apps > click the button on the right and press clear cache for all apps, restart.
If that doesn't work go to settings >apps > What's next app > force stop, uninstall updates, clear cache , restart.
This should fix the issue.

I got my room mate Zenphone 5.
Not checked much, but everything seems to be fine.
But the camera is not upto mark, especially the front. The images of front camera are so "reddish". Plus the clarity is pathetic when I compare it with my Redmi 1S' front cam. Rear cam seems to be OK, but not better than 1S'.
However, the build quality and design of Zenphone 5 blows my phone. It's soo light and sexy.

Well, I think it's because of the Update. I have updated to KK via OTA but the apps were not updated. I got the updates for the apps now. I think after the update it'll be ok.
Because, before the KK update it was working fine. Seems that something broke after the KK update. So let's see what happens after the Apps update.

Guys need your opinion on newer version of zenfone 5..
Asus Zenfone 5 A501CG Price in India - Buy Asus Zenfone 5 A501CG Black 8 GB Online - Asus : Flipkart.com
10% cashback on HDFC cards too. So will it be worth @7200 INR?
Will give my Redmi 1s to near ones & planning to get this zenfone5 for me. My elder bro had original zenfone 5 but it was stolen. He mentioned that calling earpiece sound was weak compared to redmi 1s & his current redmi note 3G. Can anyone please confirm this for me??
I know camera of original zenfone 5 was not par on redmi 1s but I feel it good buy for 7200 until I get something VFM in Windows which I prefer more over Android for phones.
Thanks in Advance.

I don't suggest to buy it.
1. It clearly says that no earphone is included in Important Note.
2. I doubt whether it's actually 501CG. AFAIK 501CG have 1.6Ghz and 502CG have 1.2Ghz. I highly doubt flipkart is trying to sell 502CG by fooling users.
Also note that, Camera resolution of 501CG and 502CG is different and 502CG has bad reviews. But in the link, flipkart mentions that it's 501CG and camera resolution is that of 501CG but the processor is that of 502CG.
Another point to note is that...
502CG : Phones - ZenFone 5 (A502CG) - ASUS
501CG : Phones - ZenFone 5 (A501CG) - ASUS
On the avobe links, asus clearly mentions that 501CG have 2X2: Intel® Atom™ Multi-Core Z2560 Processor 1.6Hz with Intel Hyper-Threading Technology whereas 502CG (the bad one) have Intel® Atom™ Z2520 ( 1.2 GHz )
Now, if you read the Flipkart Important Note correctly (Quoted Above), it says This variant of Asus Zenfone 5 comes with a 1.2 Ghz Dual Core Intel Atom Z2520 Processor with Intel Hyper Threading Technology which is the processor model of 502CG not of 501CG

But again it will be costing around 10k or +. I'm keen on windows phone & I'm not getting good one under 10k with HD display & 1 gb ram
I'm getting it just for time being as got bored of redmi 1s.

Thanks for the info bro.
I do not care much for headsets & camera. Camera of original zenfone5 was worse than my redmi 1s. My only concern is the 2 gb ram & the processor should be good.
Could you please shed some light on this chip 1.2 ghz intel?
If its not that good I'll skip it & stay with redmi 1s only till something attractive comes from microsoft stable.
You can read reviews on 502CG for detailed info.
Redmi 1S is any day better than Zenphone. I have used both the 8gb and new 16gb (without headset) versions. Only pro the latter has RAM availability.

Asus Zenfone 5 is good but Moto G 16GB is better as it has Lollipop Update already released. Zenfone 5 Lite version is not that good as it has very low RAM but its better to find out which version is being delivered(online) before going for any purchase.
For any RMA then write to Asus and get immediate resolution. *account.asus.com/signup.aspx?lang=en-in&site=in

Finally got zenfone 5 A 501CG newer 2gb ram model @7200 for replacing Redmi 1s just for better ram management.
Was bored with Redmi 1s especially off late it was lagging while multitasking[ram management] & network problem in 3g preferred mode while traveling. Even felt some lags in candy crush game without any apps in background so sold it off @5k after extensive use for 4 months.
No doubt Redmi's camera is superior & snappier to zenfone 5. Missing it
[May think of Mi3 in next few months]
Music on Redmi is great too...
If I remember correctly this version of A501CG 8gb has somewhat better display brightness compared to the first version of A501CG 8gb which my bro had got in august 2014.
Now need some help for getting good quality screen guard tempered glass preferred.
Can any owner suggest me some??
Currently have one Veegee Antiglare / Matt which was lying around

Currently this black is out of stock but other colours are available.
How is the battery back up. Planning to get one
Only battery life is making me think twice. How long do you get in a single charge without gaming.

For my purpose the battery is around 5 % in the evening around 5. Normally the phone is fully charged around 9.30 am.
Usage mainly Calling, surfing & 15-20 mins of candy crush
Still not examined properly but I felt redmi 1s was slightly better even if it heated up a lot.

Does anyone know the cost/convenience of replacing the battery? It is an important issue. My usage pattern usually leads to a degraded battery by one to one and half years and I still would wish to use the phone further.
