good day to you all ! I just have a question. is it bad that I'm not reading the " plugged in , not charging " when I hover my cursor to the battery icon ? will it damage my battery because of suspected overcharging ?

What are you actually reading then ?
Is your power brick connected to the mains and battery icon shows correctly this status ?

You didn't specify what ROG series you have got. On my G752 things works this way: battery is connected but not charging until below 95% then charge begins until 100% and then cycle repeats. This is done to improve battery life and prevents overcharging.

On my G752 Win10, it just says 100% fully charged or xx min to full charge. Unlike my G74sx which says xx% charging or xx% available, plugged in not charging.

This is perfectly normal and will not cause damage. It will not indicate charging until you drop down to around 95% then it will initiate a charge cycle by design. This is to avoid cooking the batteries.

It looks just like this . is there something wrong ? " plugged in , not charging " at 100% , if possible , is understandable . but im not sure with this one . maybe it's still supplying current in the battery . is it still supplying to the battery or not ?

fyi.

It should apply to other models too and there may be more to it, but found this FAQ on the ASUS website for the G751JT if you want to take a look.
