We swing either withASUS websiteor from the mirrors below.

Differences of firmware (look in the name), for example UL-ASUS_T004-Tw-11.2.5.26-user
CHT- compiled for Chile (operator Telefonica)
TW- for Taiwan
WW- for the European Region
There are practically no differences in the firmware itself, they differ only in the pre-installed software.

Getting Root 4.4 and 5.0.2

Finally, we have a custom RECOVERY !!! So is the kernel source !!!
For those who are not friends with WinRar or just too lazy to do it yourself, I post the official firmwareUL-A86-WW-12.4.0.66-MOD with modified Recovery to TWRP 2.7.1.1(the rest is all stock)
Firmware for unlocked bootloaderKernel with root shell, init.d and TWRP support

Use only after hacking the bootloader
Kernel with root shell, init.d and TWRP support

Described in this post

Option 1orOption 2

We put a programNextApp SDFixor do the same handles:
1) Get root by the instructions in the header
2) Install a program for reading and editing the system, such asRoot Explorer (File Manager)
3) Open the file /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml
4) We are looking for a block with the following code:
Code
<permission name = "android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE">
<group gid = "sdcard_rw" />
</ permission>
5) Add a group<group gid = "media_rw" />in the end it should turn out:
Code
<permission name = "android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE">
<group gid = "sdcard_rw" />
<group gid = "media_rw" />
</ permission>
6) Reboot the device

Option 1: Set any time zone to +3, except for the corresponding time zone (for example, Baghdad)
Option 2: downloadicudt51l.dat(18.14 MB)
and replace them with the original one at /system/usr/icu/icudt51l.dat
Do not forget to give reading rights to all (3 checkboxes). You can give a record.
Do not use the File Explorer to replace the file in the ES point, the phone will reboot during copying and you will need firmware, it works correctly through root explorer !!!
P.S This file presumably fits all models, on PadFone S it has also adjusted everything. (To be sure, you can check the size of the “factory” file - 19,032,544 bytes)

1. Go to Settings>>Individual settings and uncheck Enable fast download if previously enabled.
   
2. We send the phone to reboot (by long pressing the power button and then selecting the appropriate item from the list).
   
3. As soon as the screen goes out, hold down and hold the volume key down until the menu "Update Mode" appears
   
4. Select the Enter Recovery Mode item by pressing the volume key "down" and confirm the selection with the power key.
   
5. Further in the menu we find Update and select the firmware file.

PS The file should be in zip format (and immediately firmware, and not another zip !!!

Installation: We throw on the internal memory card, the phone says "there is an update, install?", We press "Yes" and wait ...
In case of unsuccessful update attempt (if the system software was deleted and not frozen):
1. We do not clean anything, just put the necessary one over the installed firmware through Recovery, previously thrownto internal memory
2. Now, any firmware will be installed without problems (except for rolling back from 4.4 down).
