I just got my pinetab2 in the mail today and I can't seem to get it to charge.
It powers on just fine and I've got wifi working and upgraded the OS, but I can't get it to charge.
I'm at 60% and dropping.
I'm using the included cable and I've tried various chargers, but nothing works.
I've tried several that say they run at 5V and 3A, but nothing has worked so far.
Is it DoA?
Has anybody else had this issue?
I searched, but couldn't find anything.
Thanks!
what OS did you install or is it still on a test os?
I'm using the pre-installed Dactnix Arch linux.

Yes, it is plugged into the one furthest from the power button, labeled "USB/PD".
But it does not charge.
I tried uploading pictures, but it says they're too large.
Here are some links to the images:
Plugged-in, but still discharging:

The AC adapter - it works with other devices and has the correct amperage and voltage (and wattage if you multiply those together).

The bottom port - the USB/PD port.
