As expected, Asus has rolled out Android 7.0 Nougat to the LTE model of the ZenPad 3S 10 (Z500KL). Now if you are one of the many non LTE owners, I would expect your update in days, not weeks. That’s a guess on my part, but the ZenPad 3S 10 series is a flagship device and the Nougat update is overdue.
So for this update, here are a few of the details:
Date: June 6, 2017 / June 7, 2017
Size: 1.5GB / 1.52GB
Version:
- JP_V5.3.7 (For JP Version Only)
- WW_V5.3.6 (For WW Version Only)
Release Notes:
1. Software update to Android 7.0 Nougat, The preloaded Holo Spiral, Bubbles, Black Hole, and Phase Beam live wallpapers are not compatible with Android N and will be removed after system update.
2. Remove redundant app shortcuts “Audio Wizard”、“System update” from all apps menu. How to turn on Audio Wizard? (System settings > Sound & Vibration > Audio Wizard) How to check system update? (System settings > System Update).
3. Remove “PC Suite” (CD ROM) and Share Link App.
4. Remove “Tap and hold to show menu” from Settings > ASUS customized settings > Touch key setting. Add “Tap and hold to activate Multi-window” in Touch key setting.
5. For user who use Easy mode, a Launcher app menu will show on the screen after upgrading from Android M to Android N. Please select your default launcher ag.

That day I update the nougat version, and my tab having problems with Wi-Fi issue[keep disconnecting with the home wifi], the. Only solution I get is sent to repair centre and. Get the older android version back
Is it normal that I can’t update mine to nougat 7? I have zenpad s3 10, it’s a non LTE. Is it me or?
It’s not yet available for the non 4G LTE model.
Any idea when Nougat will be available for the non-LTE version? Also, is there a way to turn off the Zen customizations and just use stock Android?
You can disable those apps quite easily. Some can be uninstalled. You can find the Google Inc. app counterparts in Google Play store. I didn’t have a problem settings things up with all things Google and removing Asus apps. Not a long process actually.
Does someone here now when the non LTE will be updated to nougat? It’s almost 2 weeks after the Late version have been updated. It really sucks we have to wait so long. Definitely never buying Asus products.
Not sure why asus support was so tight lipped about this when I contacted them last week, but today’s major update… ?
Does this work on the Verizon zt500kl ?
How long does it take Asus to release z500M support with android 7?
Today!
Crashes like crazy
Is it just me, or does anybody elses return/back key on the left at the bottom not work any more??
