ASUS Flashtool

ASUS Flashtool is a program officially introduced by the electronics manufacturer, which can be used to update the firmware version of Zenfone series cell phones and tablets. Flashtool is a small application that allows you to install a new version of the Android OS and proprietary add-ons Zenfon Launcher, on devices of this model range. The developer states that the program is designed exclusively for Zenfon phones and tablets. It can not be used to update the OS of devices of other series, and certainly not on devices of other manufacturers. Nevertheless, on thematic forums there is information that some users managed to flash devices of the brand "Padfone" with the help of the program. This information can not be called a hundred percent reliable, because the representatives of ASUS, responsible for the development of the application said that their product works exclusively with "white" ROM.

Upgrade procedure

The program is characterized by simplicity of use. All controls required by the user are located on the main window. At the first stage it is necessary to click on the "BROWSE" button located next to the "CHOOSE FILE" field and select the firmware file using the browser you are using. You can download this file directly from the developer's website. After the path to Rom is specified, the user will need to wait until the progress bar is completely filled. It should be noted that in order for the program to correctly recognize the phone or tablet computer connected to a PC, the device must be activated debugging mode via USB cable. An important feature of the program is the ability to create a return point of the current firmware version in order to restore it in the future. To do this is as easy as updating the device software. The necessary elements are located in the "BACKUP-RESTORE" section.

Compatibility

The program can be used on all models of ASUS Zenfon series. The user is not charged for downloading and using the application.
