Are you sure your USB-C charging cable is good? The only time I had a problem with USB-C charging on my pinephone was when the cheap cable I bought from eBay went bad.

Can be that same.

You are happy with your new phone?
Please write something about that in separate subject and send link to me.

what? so consensus is pine phone cant charge usb c to usb c?


RE: USB C to USB C charging not working. - KC9UDX - 08-21-2024

USB C charging works via a negotiated protocol. Pine devices don't support it. (Some might? I don't know)

The reason you can use a wall wart is that they will send power even if the negotiation fails. Other devices don't (and shouldn't).
