Brand New ROG 3 came with a battery with no charge

[Roystoys]

I just got my brand new ROG 3 strix edition and I am a bit concerned. First thing I noticed is that it had no protective film on the screen and the battery was totally dead so much so that it would not fire up until I had it on its charger for 5 minutes or so. Is this normal. I have had tons of New phones before and this is the first one that came like this. I am wondering if this particular phone has been sold to someone else and returned??????????

Download steps are same as I stated in one of my comments above
Plus judging from the comments I guess you have an tencent phone with WW rom right? See if this manual method through full firmware works

I don't know if I am doing something wrong or this phone has been stuffed when they flashed it . I have tried several times and everytime I get to the update notification after restarting it but it just says,,, update failed,,, it doesn't offer any reason why it just don't work. I am thinking of selling it while it's still retaltivly new and purchasing one that likes me ( I known this one must hate me after all the names I've called it today) . What are the rog 3 that comes in the odd shaped box called. I think at this stage I would rather pay the extra and get one that I know Will get regular updates. It's either that or the pixel 5 but I really hate Google so I would rather stick with Asus because I think they are s$&t hot phones. I mean apart from the update problem I love this phone and my old 5;z was one of the best phones I have ever hade. What to do eh at 60 something I'm to old to be spending hours and hours trying to get this thing to play nice . Then there's the war office she's ready to shoot me in a place I can't mention on this forum

This phone has a WW Infront of the firmware version and from what I've read it should get updates. What is the ROG 3 called that aren't CN global flashed versions. I'm thinking of taking a hit ( financially) and selling it on eBay but I'm not sure what the phones that come in the odd shaped box are called

To my knowledge that isn't the case.

With gorilla glass 6, u don't need to add any protective glass films. As per their promotion, it's said that it will be able to hold impacts up to 1.5 m. wkwk
