Zenfone 5 user here. Have updated two days ago. Make sure to check your firmware build first and follow the instructions. Once done with the update, it is important to perform a factory reset and clear cache via Recovery mode. Experiencing some apps force closing, some apps not loading, FB hangs or lags. Also perform hard reset to facilitate apps optimization process.
