APP Name & APP Version (If your issue relates to the app):

========================================
Hello. I connected the ROG Kunai 3 to my ROG Phone 3 to play and it worked fine until I got a prompt to update the firmware for the Kunai 3, so I tapped it. It said failed yo update and the right controller stopped working and would never responds, but the right controller still works.
I think this should be addressed very quickly as it basically bricked an expensive accessory.

Sadly I'll take this as a hard lesson. this is the 3rd ROG Phone released and first I buy. With the awful bugs and issues I face with it. even tho it is advertised to be working with them. I will never buy an Asus phone in my life again after this. Unless they miraculously prove to me that their products are worth it, which I highly doubt they'll ever do, their phones are blacklisted forever for me.

Hey, recently i connect kunai with that middle acc (acc to charge kunai) and use a cable to directly connected it to phone and it prompted to update firmware. Now my kunai can be used again. Maybe this method will help you too

Amazing! Thank you, Thank you! I did the same, I used a USB-C to USC-C and connected the Charging Piece which you mentioned to my ROG 3. I also got a prompt to update the firmware and it worked perfectly!
I attached a screenshot of the hardware version as well. The Charger Version is also V3.1.0

I'm bringing this up again as this should be solved. I've seen other facing the same problem on the Asus Armory app.

Still no update or response from Asus.
My issue has been around for almost a week now.

I contacted Costumer Service email, but they gave me no useful answer.
I'm pretty disappointed of this... a flagship phone should have better and proper support, and yet I got better support for a $150 phone more than a $1200 phone.
