Just today (20 Nov 2023, around 4pm local time at GMT +8, Malaysia), my Zenfone 8 indicated that a new Android version is available for download. I downloaded it and when prompted for a reboot, I proceed to do so. The Zenfone 8 has been bricked since then.
It won't accept charging, will not reboot regardless whatever combination of button presses. How to force a restart short of bringing the phone to the local authorised service center?
I love the Zenfone series, have been a Zenfone user since the Zenfone 2. However, I may change my mind.....
