[ROG Phone 3] New Feature - Bypass Charging!

[CH_ASUS]

Hi all!

With the new firmware update rolling out WW starting from Sep 21 , version below, we are also introducing a new feature in Game Genie
17.0823.2008.70

The 'Bypass Charging' feature is added to Game Genie, and can be enabled in-game , to temporarily allow power to the system by plugging in the charger , yet not charge the battery. This feature can prevent system from heavily draining battery while playing games yet avoid the charging of the battery which can in instances introduce extra heat.
Added “Bypass charging” feature in the in-game Game Genie panel. Allows you to power the system without charging the battery.

GLHF!

Sounds like they haven't even tested the software properly before releasing it to the public. Sigh.

You cannot use temperature to determine it is charging, this is subjective. What if game working the phone harder? What if you have other apps running in background?



You should download app like ampere, turn on bypass feature for the app.
I tested it indicates battery not charging if it is turned on.

I doubt it is fauly. FOTA rollouts are always staggered. For any inquiry about refund, contact your reseller.

Did you get it through a FOTA or did you find UL file online "not from ASUS"? I'll PM you as to not clutter this thread about bypass charging.
