The phone was working without any issues till the update. Now it heats up very much and battery drains a lot quicker than usual. Kindly explain why this is Asus, else you'll see me in consumer court.

I dont want "reduced" phone heat issue. Phone was not heating at all before the update. I did not expect Asus to do stuff like this.

@Asus tell me how to downgrade from this shit upgrade to previous versions or I'm going to file a complaint today.

Battery was at 100% last night and the phone was getting quite hot during charging. Today when I woke up the phone was really hot (it was not plugged in) and battery level is at 64%

Are you guys mining bitcoin in my phone or something?

I am trying to downgrade to previous version, but could not remember the old version number. Try asus website  /in/Phone/ZenFone-Max-Pro-M1-ZB601KL/HelpDesk_BIOS/  ( I cannot post links yet)

I am downloading Version WW-16.2017.2002.061 now but I think the old version was Version WW-16.2017.1912.060

Will let you know after I install
