      [Yet another beta] Asus ZenFone 5 Android 10 stable update allegedly released with May security patch (Download link inside)

      This story is being continuously updated…. New updates are being added at the bottom…..

      Original story (from June 19) follows:

      Asus has reportedly released the stable ZenFone 5 Android 10 update. The official announcement post is still nowhere to be seen and there is little from actual users that have received the update.

      The ZenFone 5 started testing for Android 10 in early April 2020. As usual, the beta version comes without the bloatware that usually accompanies ZenUI-based firmware.

      Asus followed the initial release with another AOSP firmware in mid-May. As expected, this version didn’t bring many changes to the first release. The update, which arrived as firmware version 17.0615.2003.22, was mainly meant to fix bugs and improve performance.

      In fresh developments, we are now being tipped that Asus has started rolling out the stable version of Android 10 to the ZenFone 5. Our tipster has provided us with a download link as well as the changelog of the update, which carries firmware version 17.0615.2005.25.

      1. Upgrade to Android 10
      2. Improved System Stability
      3. Updated APN List
      4. Fixed Quickstep launcher issue
      5. Updated Google security Patch to May 2020
      6. Fixed Speaker Cracked Sound Issue
      7. Video stabilization Added to the camera app

      Apparently, the update also brings the May 2020 security patch alongside a fix for the annoying crackling speaker sound bug. The update also adds video stabilization capabilities to the stock camera app.

      One interesting bit is that the provided link suggests the new Android 10 update for the ZenFone 5 is still AOSP version. Essentially, this should mean the firmware is still in beta – the third installation to be precise.

      However, our tipster claims that going forward, the ZenFone 5 will only run on the AOSP-based version of Android and not ZenUI.
