Battery problem with a Pinephone keyboard and Mobian - elode - 07-26-2022
Hello,
I have a Pinophone equipped with the Pinephone keyboard (operating system: Mobian).
As indicated in the instructions, to recharge the Pinephone, I plug the usb cable from the charger into the usb input on the keyboard.
Until a recent update, with Mobian, once the battery was charged, the charge indicator showed 200%. It seemed a little strange to me, but considering that with the keyboard battery, the device has two batteries (keyboard battery + Pinephone battery), there is a logic to the matter… and there was no problem. My Pinephone had a battery life of about two days.
But since a recent update, things have changed:
I can still charge the Pinephone by plugging the usb cable into the keyboard input, but it seems that mobian no longer detects the keyboard battery.
After charging for a whole night, the charge indicator in mobian only shows 65% maximum. Also the keyboard battery doesn't seem to charge the Pinephone battery
Result: the autonomy of my pinephone went down to about ten hours!
Does anyone have a clue to help me?
Thanks

I am using Manajro ARM (Phosh) and I have the same problem.

Previously, it used to show 66% on a full charge,
but after updating to the latest version, it shows 33% on a full charge.
Perhaps the latest version of Mobian (Weekly) will also show 33% on a full charge.
I do not know how to correct the problem.
I wish I had a better solution....

For me, on Mobian and PostmarketOS it's started displaying 25% on a full charge.
My current theory is it's due to changes in how the UPower daemon calculates the display percentage. Have a look at my thread about it:
