So today I was using my phone and then i could turn the screen back on. So i pulled out the battery and tried to turn it back on, however it didnt work. I tried plugging in the charger, but there wasn't any orange charging light (it was on around 60-50% battery when it stopped working). I tried connecting it to a pc, but there was nothing, i couldnt access the sd card and there was nothing on the device manager. I tried doing the volume down and power button and other stuff, after a while i managed to get the phone to boot up but it died before it made it to the lock screen (not charging). Is there away to fix it?

Try removing your battery and then plug in the cable connected to PC USB. I would also try doing the same with a unix based system, just to be sure that there are no driver issues(though windows should at least show an unrecognised device in device manager).
Also, can you keep it on charge for some time and see if the phone feels a bit hot...? If not, it seems to be hardware fault.

Maybe your phone is bricked,but the way you explained it seems like a hardware problem !
Do you have warranty ?
Woke up one morning and the phone was stuck on the startup screen. Turned it off, and when I rebooted, it still was stuck on the startup screen. Then, after a day or two, it would not reboot at all. no red light when plugged in charger. also when its plugged to pc, pc is making sounds like its plugged and then unplugged many times. is it possible to fix it? or its dead motherboard?
Are you able to access the bootloader?? By pressing volume down and the power on button simultaneously while no cable is connected to the phone?
Was charging my phone and I saw it had a fb notification. As I clicked on it, the phone froze and then shut itself down after 10 seconds. Now the charging LED doesn't come on when plugged in and the phone won't boot up anymore. No combination of volume keys or power button does anything. When I plug it into my computer, it is recognized as "QHUSB_BULK" and won't let me access it in any way.
Any ideas or is it time to just bury this phone and upgrade?
Hello! I could not find a section for my phone, so I am posting here.
My Zenfone 5 Selfie/Lite (ZC600KL) randomly "bricked". After being left alone charging for 20 minutes, when I came back it was turned off. Holding the power button resulted in the phone showing the "Powered by Android" logo, then the ASUS logo, and stop there.
I don't think it's a battery issue as it always lasted a long period of time; this is the first time anything like that happens, and might be the last. I also never tried meddling with my phone (rooting or the likes of it), so I'm pretty much clueless. I messed around with the phone, turning it on and off for a while, letting it run out of battery and charge it again, leaving it stuck on ASUS logo over night, to no avail.
Here are some things that I noticed that might help solve this problem:
1. After I connect the charger, the screen shows an empty charging battery along with the LED showing the red color (which means no battery). After 5 seconds, the screen turns on again by itself to show the true state of the battery, which is whatever % it is right now and the correct LED light (orange/green).
2. Turning on the phone makes the "low battery" buzz followed by a normal vibration. If it's charging, the "No battery" red LED shows.
3. I can turn on the fastboot mode by pressing Volume + and Power, but it only shows "CSC Fastboot mode!!! Long press power key to shutdown device". While on fastboot, my computer recognizes the phone is connected through USB, but I cannot access the phone's storage.
4. Pressing Volume - and Power does nothing besides restarting the phone.
My english isn't the best, so I apologize. If there's anything that I messed up and you can't understand, please do tell me.
P.S: Zenfone 5 Selfie is the same phone as Zenfone 5 Lite, but it is known by both names for some reason. Thanks for reading.

Exactly the same problem and phone I have here and Google research has been useless plus it appears this model phone has many firmware versions also
I have tried flashing firmware in fastboot mode but the ADB and fastboot tools won't work as it shows write protected as it appears bootloader is locked and am struggling with QPST also got so desperate to get phone working I even checked out some of those android repair software like DR fone then realised they want $70 USD and instantly removed the software haha
Hope we can get answers but seems like that maybe no one has solutions for this
So yesterday i wanted to charge my phone cause it died, before charging it i dropped it by accident and when i tried to charge it it gave no response (just the white led, i couldn't turn it on, there wasn't any vibration).
I waited for several hours for it to charge but nothing, i started to try to flash it, the problem is that the phone doesn't appear on "devices" in windows, it's not even unrecognized cause that's another problem but the device appears (tried different usb cables and installed drivers in a bunch of ways).
Connecting it just turns on the white led, pressing button combinations does nothing, and it isn't the screen cause there's not even vibrations from when u turn it on or something, every input does nothing.
is it over?
