Hi Blake@ROG,
As another ROG staff has stated already, internally they've already confirmed there are issues that need to be fixed in the next firmware, the problem is we don't know when it will come as we've already missed thomas_yiu@ROG deadline by a month already. What I will say is that the issue of random connect/disconnect is definitely more severe on my phone than on my laptop.
1) It's hard to think that the random disconnects have anything to do with interference when I'm sitting on my bed far away from any other electronic device, with my phone in hand, and the dongle sticking out of my phone literally less than 30cm from the headset. Unless somehow the 4G from my SIM card is causing "interference"... but at that point it's just silly.
2) Recently the Armory software has been updated so now we can see in the notification area a more precise battery indicator of how much battery % is remaining on the ROG Strix Go, which is great. However, there are issues where the Armory Crate and the notification icon show different levels of battery, and often the value becomes "stuck" and therefore reports a false value. Here is a screenshot where the Armory Crate becomes stuck at 80%, and it stays that way forever. Note that just like the Armory Crate, the notification area icon can also get "stuck" at a false value, and the only way to get it to fix them is to uninstall and reinstall the software. But it happens again soon.
Please pass this bug onto the team as well.
UPDATE 07/31: Issue (2) from above seems to have been fixed with the latest HAL and Device Kit updates, great! Though the battery indicator only goes down by 25% increments, wish it was a little more fine tuned (say, every 10%). Looking forward to new Firmware to fix the connection issues.
