    Post No more transparent menu for Zenfone 5z?

    Tried the steps, but it seems to only change it on the Home Screen or Lock Screen. I had them set to None before and if I set them to Blur and then change it to 0%, after clicking on Apply it gets changed back to None.

    Post No more transparent menu for Zenfone 5z?

    Hello, Thank you for the fast reply to the thread. My app tray isn't transparent and I can't find a way to make it transparent. In the older Zen UI, you could go to Preferences and there was an option there to make it transparent. However, I can't find such an option on Zen UI 5.5 on Zenfone...

    Thread No more transparent menu for Zenfone 5z?

    Hello, Did Asus remove the ability to make the App Menu background transparent in order to see the Home Screen wallpaper? Zenfone 2 and Zenfone 3 Deluxe had this, but I can't find any setting for Zenfone 5z to set the App Menu transparency in order to see the wallpaper even if I'm not on the...

    Post Difference between 8GB and 6GB ram models

    Except for RAM and Storage size, they're basically the same. The Antutu score will indeed increase because it takes in count everything in your device, including how much ram and how much storage, but other than that, there aren't any differences.

    Thread Manual update notification not appearing after downloading Android O firmware

    Hello, Asus finally released Android O for ZS570KL and I tried to manually update, but after downloading the file and placing it in the root folder, the update notification doesn't appear. It doesn't matter if I restart the phone or just disconnect the USB, the notification still won't appear...

    Thread No notifications when the phone screen is off

    Hello, As the title says, I'm having a problem with notifications when the screen is off. I'm not getting notifications from Yahoo Mail, unless the screen is turned on...and I do get them ONLY if the app is opened. I had Asus Zenfone 2 before this and I'm used to always closing my apps after...

    Post Moving on.

    The only thing I had to replace (under warranty) was the battery, never had any other problems. Still using Zenfone 2 after two years and a half because I don't have any issues with it. Will eventually change it too, but I guess that will be when the phone won't keep up with apps and games...

    Post What did you use before your ZenFone 2?

    Before buying the Zenfone 2, I was using a HTC Desire 310 and before that a Samsung Galaxy Mini 2 (which was my first smartphone actually). Really like both those phones, but they were budget phones and they quickly started to have performance problems, since they were generally weak devices...

    Post Z00A going from 50-60% battery to 5% and shutdown in 30sec, should I be worried?

    I had a problem similar to this one back in September. It was cause by the battery. Went to the warranty service and they replaced it. In my case, the battery was swollen at the bottom, that's how I knew the battery must be the culprit. And the issue happened more than once, plus even when it...

    Post Zenfone 2 Stock Marshmallow 223 Bugs?

    This version is pretty stable imo. I've encountered only one issue: After I use the GPS, the phone heats up and it starts draining battery. This can be solved by restarting the phone after using GPS stuff (Google Maps etc). I rarely use the GPS so this doesn't bother me. Other than that...

    Post Official ASUS Nougat for our Zenfone2?

    I know there have been people that had problems with the phone, but isn't it the same with all the phones? There's no perfect manufacturer or phone, some will have problems, some won't. I'm still satisfied with my Zenfone 2 and even if it had 1-2 problems with Marshmallow when it was released...

    Thread Question about Flashing from Cyanogen to Stock MM

    Hello everyone, My cousin has Zenfone 2 ZE551ML (the variant with 1.8Ghz and 4 GB RAM) and he wants to go back to stock MM ROM. My questions are: 1. Is any ROM from Asus website safe to flash with Asus Flash Tool? Or do I need a specific ROM for it to work? If I need a specific ROM, can...

    Post Does Zenfone 2 (ZE551ML) still worth buying? (comparing to OnePlus)

    It all depends on what you do with your phone. There are people that have been satisfied with their Zenfone and people that haven't been satisfied and only had complaints. Personally, I love this phone, got it 1 year ago and still works like a charm. It was cheap for what it offered and it...

    Post Ze551ml New ota update. 184

    I've upgraded from LP .198 to MM .184 and I have no issues so far. Performance is good (no factory reset), battery is the same as on LP (I lose 1% at each 2 hours on stand-by), the sound distortion and freeze problems I used to have in games are not there anymore. All sensors work.
