Battery discharge problem

Please  give your operating system(s) when describing your faults, as there are some differences.

Thanks for the head's up, edited my post to include 'about' info from the two distros.

This seems to be a software issue. At least for me charging the PPP without the keyboard worked after I booted danctnix sxmo from microsd (you need to boot the phone while shortly pressing the reset button located in a small recess labeled RE with the back of the case off, it's in the top left corner under the camera). Now I just need to test if charging works with the keyboard attached, but since it's working on my PPCE I am pretty confident it will. I did have to add a little paper shim under the pogo pins to get good contact on both PPCE and PPP btw.

You can also boot to the sd card by just using a 5 or 6 second press on the power button, instead of the usual 2 second press. (with a working bootable sd card )
I just discovered this myself.
