Did you try wiping cache partition?

It would not solve the problem but it may a first step to identify. I am using 3C Toolbox, see example pic below. It also can record discharge and charge patterns. There is also a battery only free part of 3C Toolbox available https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ccc71.bmw .
[Zenfone 5 General] b-jack:
That might be the problem with the AC, try using original Asus AC, bc tbh Im using both z5 and z6 , when im using Samsung or other's cable or AC, the charging time takes forever to charge. try changing the AC. :)

That screen is for when you're using Asus Flip Cover, seems like the the function has been enabled, did you have crack or something on your screen ? mine once got stuck bc the screen cracked. try rebooting and disabling the flip cover setting.
[Zenfone 5 General] mepsnet:
I did wiping cache partition, found that advice also on Asus forum, I have also tested other cables and adapters like Nillkin 2A fast charger but it did not help. When I use original Asus charger it also shows usb charging and needs more than 5 hours to charge.

You can try Titanium Backup
[Zenfone 5 General] peter-k:
So download the battery app and check how much mAh actually reaching your device. Note, at 80 % + charging is slowed down.
[Zenfone 5 General] kloroform:
yes you can, you need to be rooted though

after you root your device if you already dont have root access, download and install terminal emulator

download the imei image file from this link http://www.mediafire.com/download/9a87r1bgn1zks7b/mmcblk0p3.img

now that you have downloaded, copy it to internal memory/internal sd card/phone memory whatever you call it

now in terminal emu, type su and press enter

give it root access, now run this command

dd if=/sdcard/mmcblk0p3.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3

press enter, reboot you phone
[Zenfone 5 General] mepsnet:
I have tested charging with Battery monitor app, and on wall charger it shows USB charging and it shows ma flow 400mA, I have also voltage tester from ebay(the white one) and connected it on my charger it shows 0.44 A output.

Hi guys, I fave a Zenfone 5 A501CG and I tried installing Cyanogen Mod 12.1 on it. Unfortunately I did something wrong (I guess I didn't unlock bootloader) and now my phone is stuck on the usb logo. I managed to get it to the factory reboot, but it goes directly to "no command" screen. So, my android was deleted. What do I do? Anyone can help me?
[Zenfone 5 General] peter-k:
That's below USB 1 specs.

Is this the original charger? Then it seems you'd need a better cable. For comparison I get 730 - 900+ mAh with the original charger, I can get exactly 1000 mAh with a quality 2 A charger and dedicated USB charging cable with double wire gauge.
[Zenfone 5 General] mepsnet:
I use original cable and also tested with nillkin 2A charger, the result is the same. It could be that the microusb connector on device is corrupt, any other reason?
[Zenfone 5 General] peter-k:
Seems possible. It shows USB charging even you have a wall plug, which explains your 400 mAh. There have been reports regarding broken USB Pcb, but as far as I remember these people also had other probs, such as only being able to charge when phone is off. BTW, did you try that, too?

[Zenfone 5 General] kunalshah912:

Hello,

I tried to use CM12.1 and Resurrection Remix 5.5.6 in my device, but I am experiencing endless random freeze/reboots. Doing some research, I got the info that the ifwi image used to unlock the bootloader is compatible with a limited set of Zenfone 5 devices (mainly 1.6GHz models), and using such ifwi with the wrong model will cause this freezing problem.

The question is: can anyone provide an ifwi image able to be used for unlocking the bootloader of 1.2GHz Zenfones? How could it be done? How can the user community help with that?

Thank you very much in advance!

There is very little chance. Last year there were a number of attempts to convince XDA opening a reasonable section for ZF 5, all to no avail. They didn't even bother answering anyone.

Edit: Well i found out how to make dissapear the update process and enter recovery, for whom to make concern:

# In droidboot mode, write in shell command :fastboot erease cache. Caché will now be erased and you'll be able to enter in recovery mode (btw I flashed recovery after that..)

Hi guys, need help reviving my Zenfone 5.

Before I explain what happened, I am fully aware that what I did is stupid. So yeah, that can cause a lot of problems.

Summarized points of events:

- Phone got stucked on 'System UI error', can't pass through it.

- I flashed TWRP. Tried wiping / factory reset but, didn't pass boot screen (waited for 2 hours+)

- I backed-up my system, then do a system wipe. Restore it, reboot and still stuck on boot screen.

- I wiped everything. Including the internal storage. That's where I think the most stupid thing I did. I wiped everything, including the backup.

- Tried flashing UL-ASUS_T00F-WW-3.23.40.60 but failed (it's looking for a certain version, probably the last KK firmware)

Current status of phone:

- With droidboot and TWRP Recovery

- NO OS/System

Been looking for a ROM for hours that can be flashed(for No OS) but most of them (based on its description) are updates only. I tried flashing UL-ASUS_T00F-WW-2.19.40.18 but It also failed.

Can anyone help me with this one? Thanks in Advance!
