Asus Zenfone 5 [OFFICIAL THREAD][ROOTING][TWRP]

Guys,

May Zenfone 5 lite ako.

Kaso sa kaka insert/remove ng nano sim with adapter....naputol yung pins/contact points ng sim tray/holder # 1.
Yung sim tray/holder # 2 ay ok pa naman.

So ngayon, naging single sim use na lang ang fone ko.

Ma re-repair pa kaya ito ?
Pag pa warranty ko ba sa Asus ito mabilis lang magagawa ?
Magkano kaya ito kung pa repair ko sa greenhills ?
 
May naka pag install naba ng twrp or cwm recovery dito? Anyone knows here?
