How to root zenfone 5 without PC

First of all before rooting your android mobile you should know :-

What is rooting???

Rooting is the process of gaining administrative rights on your Android device.  Once we root our Android device, we can then make changes to it to customize it well beyond what it normally can do.

Once you have root access on your Asus Zenfone 5, you’ll be able to:

• Remove apps that were preinstalled by your carrier/manufacturer from your device.
• Free up storage space (because of the above benefit).
• Increase battery life (apps that might have been running constantly can be removed).
• Increase performance (after removing apps that are always running, the device will be less bogged down and run smoother).
• Update to a new version of Android (by flashing a custom recovery/ROM)
• Tons of other customizations when you use your new found administrative rights to flash a custom ROM.

 Warning!!!

This will void the warranty of your device. We won’t be held responsible if you end-up bricking or damaging your device. Do it at your own risk.

But You can unroot your device to reinstate the warranty, if an unrooting procedure’s available, though.
