ZenFone8 stuck on waiting for flashing full ramdump

[mail_jackr]

As requested by the mod - opening new discussion for the issue.
The Flashing Full Ramdump happened to me too - the phone was being charged over the night and the error was waiting when I woke up.
I hope that at least your service will fix it quickly.

I got mine few weeks back...refund depends on your local consumer laws, unfortunately where I'm from there is no refund. So will probably sell off this phone after finding a good replacement.

Even if anyone offers it free, refuse it, because you're certainly going to lose your data, not if but when the phone dies. Imagine using this damn thing as an alarm for the whole family and it goes crapdump at night, you get sacked at work and kids run late to school, so stay away!

I got ramdump too few hours ago. 16/256 Black, MFD 04.2021.
Was listening to music through BT to my car audio. YouTube Vanced cast music to it, then I opened WhatsApp, started to type text. Pressed "Send" button and phone freezed, music stopped to play. I tried to tap on "Send" button few times but phone didn't react and image on display was static. Then dispaly switched off for about 10 seconds and that generic ramdump screen appeared to me.
But I don't know if it's because I have unlocked bootloader or because I have custom kernel or because of something esle - I was able to easily restart my phone to bootloader and then press power button on green "Start" and my phone boot normally back to Android without any problems.

Unfortunately you've joined the dreaded Asus zenfon 8 team and you're number 34 on this thread. This happens with or without bootloader unlock.
Come on Asus, please recall this phone now, and save consumers the hassle. The phones are dying at a rate of 2 a day, surely this is now a crisis situation?!

I don't know. My phone isn't dead. I mean I use it normally. I do not know why for some people when it happens they are unable to escape that ramdump screen. And for some (like for me) - I can easily restart phone and continue to use it normally. This what is really strange.
