Issues fixed

Pairing issue

If all four lights are not blinking at the same time after pressing the power button, immediately try pressing and holding both the ⇽ ʙᴀᴄᴋ and ○ ʜᴏᴍᴇ buttons at the same time for about 3 seconds while there is still LED activity which should cause all four lights to start blinking at the same time and restart the pairing process.

The next time you turn on the ASUS Gamepad, you should notice all four lights will be blinking sequentially (not at the same time) indicating the gamepad is trying to pair with the system set up last time. Once the ASUS Gamepad pairs with a system, a single light should remain on.

This means the ASUS Gamepad can only be paired with one system at a time and will always try to pair with the same system after the power button is pressed. So if you want to pair with a different system, you need to follow the procedure mentioned at the start of the troubleshooting section above advising to press and hold both Back and Home buttons to restart the pairing process.
