Question [CLOSED]Can't download latest System Update - ASUS ZenFone 8

Hi, can anyone help - I'm trying to download the latest system update, 30.11.51.83, to my Asus Zenfone 8 and keep getting this error: "The download has been paused due to a network error".
My WiFi is working fine but I've restarted the router and logged out and back in on the phone.
I've also restarted the phone and turned off Background App Management and Data Saver.
Any advice appreciated!

Used to get a similar issue on a different phone. Try changing your dns to something else like one.one.one.one or anything else and give it a try. or try using a vpn.

Thanks for your advice. It has actually resolved itself because I went to a friends house whose WiFi I'm connected to, and it did just what you said and downloaded automatically.

Quick GPS problem with download data

Hello everyone, i have a problem with QuickGPS app. It doesn't download the data anymore, no matter if it's on automatic or manual. I have tried through ActiveSync, WIFI, GPRS and nothing. It was working fine before, i don't know what happend (i haven't installed anything lately - except Opera Mini 4, but i don't really know if the problem happend before the install or not, i didn't mess with GPS Settings either).
I press download, it connects (sometimes i see the percentage for downloading) and then it says "Connection failed. Please try again later". Also i'm sure i had 5 more days from last download so the data shouldn't have expired yet (is after all 6d23h validity) and at Valid time says "Expired".
Any thoughts?
I had same problem in these few days, but, it worked again after wait few hours and retry. So, I suspect the server was not available. The server/service is probably hosted by htc.
Hmmm... so i can hope is a problem with the data posting site? Because i have this problem since yesterday morning
I just tried it & was successful. Maybe its fixed now.

The only thing that helped for me was a hard reset...

[Q] "New Connection Setup database found. Do you want to install it"

About once every minute I receive a message on my screen saying “ New Connection Setup database found. Do you want to install it?”
I push yes and it downloads about 14% stops and says server error.
My question is what to do with this? How do I disable?
Thanks for the help!!!

I have exactly the same problem. Been driving me nuts Whatever I do, whether I am on HSDPA or WIFI connection, it never gets further than 66% (that's the max I ever obtained) - I've tried at least 20 times and would really like to know if there's a way to get rid of this thing. I tried disabling the auto configuration, but I can confirm (as per above) that this does not work on the Touch HD.
Naturally, HTC refers you to Microsoft. I haven't contacted Microsoft because I thought I'd first find out where this comes from.
Any ideas/tips/solutions!???????????
Thanks!
This thing also bugging me alot...disabling the auto configuration doesn't work...May be some know any tweak for that...
I happened to me. I managed to download the database connecting the phone to a desktop with DSL connection. It installed something (I don't know what) and since then I don't have the messages anymore.

So far there's no working solution for this. Some people have managed to download the database, the phone rebooted itself (keep this in mind, because you'll lose any open and unsaved data) and a new connection rom version now shows up, without any visible impact.
But most of the people just cant download the whole database (me included). Seems to be related to the fact that many people are trying to download at the same time. Maybe try doing it at some wicked hours when the load is lower.

yes, that's true.... I got also the same problem, but fortunately I was wide awake at 5 a.m. and my HD manage to finish complete database download, after which phone auto rebooted and now there is no more message “ New Connection Setup database found. Do you want to install it?”.
after this update I didn't notice any significantly changes ....
Everyone connect the phone to activesync using a pc that has internet connection and then press update on the phone. It will use your pcs internet to download it and it will go successfull.
I tried to download with my HSDPA and my WIFI but no luck. As soon as connected on activesync it started to download and finished 100%

Running CyanogenMod-4.2.4 need to activate over wifi

I have successfully flashed my phone with the CyanogenMod-4.2.4 rom, enabled WIFI and can browse the internet.
BUT, when I try to activate my Gmail through the activation wizard with WIFI enabled I get the following error message: “Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server.”
I am using a T-Mobile pre-paid account, which means I don't have a data plan, so activation over WIFI is my only option.
Any suggestions on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

Frustrating is more like it. I have spent days search this forum and the web for an answer.
I started out with CyanogenMod-4.2.3 installed and I thought that might have been the problem so last night I flashed 4.2.4 and still have the same problem.
I can browse the internet so I have a hard time believing it is a connection problem. I did come across a post earlier this week where someone was having issues with his WPA2 connection. Later today I will change the connection type and see if that fixes the problem.
If you can think of anything else I might try that would be great.
Thanks for the quick reply.

I changed my WIFI settings to WEP and WPA but still got the same error. Any more suggestions would be great.
The problem is probably due to gapps failing
keep trying and maybe it will go through

I finally got it to work and for those who may run across this thread with the same issue here what I did:
I ran across a thread on a different forum that stated the reason I was having the problem was because I skipped the initial activation process when the phone was first turned on. Well with CM4.2.4 and other rooted roms there is an option to skip the initial activation process, which I did.
So I went back and reread the other threads about how to activate your phone over wifi and they all state the same thing, you will need root access, which allows you access to execute debug commands from your PC to control your phone.
So I did a hard reset and re-flashed CM4.2.4. Then after I rebooted my phone I followed the instruction on this thread http://modmygphone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9471 to turn on the wifi. Once the wifi was on I disconnected my phone from my computer and proceeded to activate it, which worked like a charm.

Problem accessing Youtube and Play Store

Hi, I desperately need some support as my device refuses to sign in in both Youtube and Play Store. I'm therefore unable to use both these apps. An error message keeps saying I'm offline and proposes to retry, but it simply never works whatever I do.
Issue has been going on since many weeks; I googles and tried many suggestions without any success.
Before I do a hard reset, has anyone an idea what this can be?
The amazing part is that my daughter's tab (Galaxy S2) is also having the same issue since some time! She has her own google account. What the heck is going on?
Thanks!

This may be an bug in the updated version of google play store or YouTube..Have you tried to sign in specific apps usning another google account you have..Also try to clear cached data of phone as well as clear data of those apps* you can also uninstall updates of those apps and force stop or disable them and after enabling again try to access*..Also might be network related issue sometimes weaken network shows such type of errors..Try to acees with high speed wifi or data with maximum signal..Even if problem exist then simply reset is last option for you..

Hi, I tried most of the solutions you're are mentioning, without any success. What I find interesting is what you wrote about weak network. I cancelled my cable connection at home some time back and using instead a 4G modem. Could that really be the culprit, knowing the coverage is medium? It sounds to me strange that such possibility exists, also I often go out and have full 4G network for hours sometimes and still it doesn't work. Interestingly enough, every about once per month it suddenly works, and I'm able to update my apps and also access my account in Youtube. It'll work for 2-3 days, until it's again the same bad. Really boring and would love to understand this issue better so as to possibly fix it. Thank you.

1)It's possible sometimes your networks proxy enforce your google id not to be sign in into specific apps you have mentioned and yes sometimes low network coverage also causes the issues like offline or sign in errors like please check network connection due wireless functionality limitations
2)I am curious about one thing if you have tried almost all the solutions found on google as well as your own, is it that much impossible for you to make backup of your current imp data and give a try to hard reset?? If i am not wrong, please give it a try because sometimes software glitches also causes the app crashes or network errors
3) Next thing sometimes your stock software gets corrupted due to some fatal malwares so many system apps as well as third party apps pretended to show errors like unfortunately process is stopped also some network related issue, so one solution you can try is to re-apply or update your current stock firmware..i.e. if update is unavailable you can fresh install same firmware version again on your phone which most of the times resolves the issue
4) As i mentioned in my first post you should give a try to any high speed mobile network like LTE or 5ghz band Wi-Fi which gives constant access to internet connection which probably help you to figure out exact issue i.e. with modems or connection your using or with your device itseld due to corrupted software
5)Please mention your device model no,country,your mobile network provider information so that it would be easy to figure out your issue
Thank you. Yes, a hard reset could solve it although I'd like to avoid it if possible. I will try ASAP on a solid wifi and see. I forgot to mention an important point: my daughter's tablet (Galaxy S2 pro) has got the same issue, and it started near about the same time like it did to me. She has her own Google ID, and she uses a different set of apps. Will report whenever I can test on a wifi.
My mobile provider is Salt Mobile here in Switzerland, and my Note 5 is a generic one bought in UAE. I run Dr. Ketan rom of about 8 months ago.

1)Ohhhk now i got, i assume you might be using Indian Variant with indian mobile network providers as per your username 'prerna'
so your device might be factory unlocked SM-N920C
2)So you should try on any faster network provider or incase wifi to check if problem is due to weak singal strength or specific with your device software integration
3) And i think you should give a try to dr.ketan's nougat rom which is based on latest nougat firmware which will might help you to overcome your issue as new base,new kernel will help you to get stable connectivity
4)If your running dr.ketans MM 6.0.1 based rom then download latest N5 nougat rom to flash
5)I know u might not new in flashing custom roms ad your running a custom one only from 8 months but once again be sure to enable 'oem unlocking' and 'usb debugging' options from developers option before flashing latest twrp version(Don't worry u can flash dr.ketans rom using any 3.0 twrp version ur running now but if latest version with stability and improvements available for your device then you can install it as per your requirement) if your running old one or before flashing nougat based N5 rom by dr.ketan

Issue updating to 8.1(v2.13B)

Hi just got the 7 plus.
I connected the phone using WiFi hotspot of my main phone.
When I try to update it during setup, it looks like it's going to start then it says waiting for Wi-Fi. I skipped that part then went on to set up my email using said wifi, which worked.
I then came back to update the phone and it keeps giving me the same message.
I switched the SIM card and downloaded some apps because it won't even download any app, and downloading the update won't work that way as it requires WiFi.
Browsing works though as does YouTube and the Reddit app am using while on the hotspot.
Is there anything I can do to get the update on my phone?
Phone was bought from UK though I'm in Nigeria now. Don't know if that matters.
Unchecked the metered connection on the Nokia so now it downloads apps but still not the update. Keeps giving me the same message. The model of my phone is TA-1055
Is there anyway I could get the update?
Thanks in advance.
