========================================
Soo i pluged my phone to charge(it had around 50% batery) was texting at the time and noticed the batery jumped from like 55% to 100 and completely died.Tried to turn it back on,the rog logo apeared and after that it died again.Since then i couldn't turn it back on.Dosen't apear to charge on any of the ports also tried fastboot it but nothing helped and the phone keeps getting hotter and hotter to the point i can't keep it in my hand for more then 10 secconds and from its side charger there is a faint smell burn.
The phone keeps getting hotter so i left it on the floor in my bathroom afraid it might blow up and burn up the house(no im not kidding its that hot).
Keep in mind i have phone for 5 days.I will get in contact with the place i bought it from in 2 days (unfortunantely tomorrow ill be at work the entire day)and hopefully ill manage to get a complete refund cuz i don't want to deal with this again and yes unfortunantely its the tencent version.

Just because it is too hot to hold doesn't mean the IC has burnt.

That automatically tells you it's an IC chip failing?
I am not denying the fact he has to go to the reseller or service centre, but don't claim it is an IC chip that has failed.
Also, the reason why I say try calibration is of course when he has fully charged his phone. This actually includes being patient with the charging and ensure it does it part.

Cannot hold it 10s => 70-75 ° C, so battery had to be> 80 ° C
Burnt smell
Do not charge
Charger plugged in, it continues to heat up.

All the information given shows that the user has done well to isolate it to let it cool and that it must be returned to the after-sales service.
I would even add that he must send a registered mail to ASUS to report this failure, which is far more serious than WiFi and which does not require many similar cases for a verification procedure to be done by asus and a reminder. is place
