========================================
After updating to A11 I started to see major issues with the battery optimizations, mostly on Gmail app, but once I started to investigate I see it overall. Email notification come with hours , if not tens of hours delay , which was not the case on A10. I noticed that even whether app is not updating in timely fashion.
It looks like phone goes to hibernate and not resumes for notification only once in a couple of hours if not more. Strangely but whatsapp is working fine. I have disabled all battery optimizations and I saw some improvements but not that good as in A10. Yesterday for instance, I lost a couple of important emails since they Gmail App only synchronized once in 10 hours....which is unacceptable.
Factory reset does not help since I have done it at least 7 times due to various issues since A11 update a week ago...

Please help!!!! I don't know what else to look for!

If it helps anybody, I got the Weather app working somehow using the following trick. So now it updates temperatures automatically. I don't know how long it works, but at least it has worked 1 day.
- Go to Weather app settings and click on "Force stop"
- Remove the weather widget from the home screen and add it again
Found this solution from a oneplus user who had the same issue, so it looks like this is not just an ASUS-specific issue.

It has been more than 3 months I have opened this thread....1500 + views, more than 150 responses , more than 3 times I have provided the logs and still no answer....not to mention a fix....is there any moderator left on this forum that at least could reply and tell us the latest status from dev team about this issue?
Should I sell the phone or wait for the power button to break (since I have to restart the phone almost every morning in order to receive the notifications...sometimes more times a day...) ???

As suspected, they've neglected this phone because of the ZF8. They're super active on there. Might as well just post on there instead. You might have more luck in getting a response lol.
Such poor form from these guys. First & last Asus phone forever. Only glimmer of hope really is A12. But given their utter neglect, I'm pessimistic. I'll probably root & install a custom ROM (and kernel) from the devs on XDA even though there's not many.
I sent a PM to 5 mods/admins to see if they will even respond.

Give up for God's sake I think if the powers that be where going to,,FIX,, anything they would have done it by now. The zenfone 9 must be around the corner so I think what we have is all we are going to get 🥺
