  3. I downloaded the file from ASUS website to upgrade to lollipop as mentioned in your video. But even after transferring to internal storage and restarting, the update did not show up. I then realised that I had extracted the files which I then deleted and restarted the device again but the problem persists. What to do now?

I unrooted before transferring the file to internal storage. what's interesting is that when it rebooted is rooted again. any solution?

    1. Hi Edjen, you will need to downgrade your firmware to 2.20.40.53 for a smooth transition to Android L . Downgrade the v2.50.40.53 from asus website, then using adb sideload downgrade it (Technoplanner has a video for this too) , once you are down to v. 53 , let the phone restart... Wait for few minutes or an hour if you can.. .. Then using the same method of adb sideload upgrade your phone to Android L. You can't upgrade to Android L v. 60 directly, upgrade to lower ( v. 52) first then you can directly upgrade to latest version from. Setting menu... Long procedure but worth it :) . If any queries feel free to reply. I'll help you with that
