How to stop it turning on - henriettamyres - 10-24-2025
Hello,
The PinePhone automatically powers on when plugged in. While I know there are workarounds and suggestions like "using a better charger," I’m not interested in those.
What I’d like to know is:
Is there a command I can enter in the terminal to prevent it from doing that, so it only turns on when I press the power button?

It is designed to power on when plugged in. The OS is needed to properly charge the battery.
