It will be interesting to see what the Pinephone does when hooked up to that charger.I *finally* got my new USB-C PD 3.0 charger (5/9/12/15 V, 3 A, 18 W) and USB-C-to-USB-C charging cable today. Yay! I started the "Powersupply" app that comes with Mobian, disconnected my old USB 500 mA charger and connected the new one. And... nothing. The charger is not detected; Powersupply shows charger as "Not connected".
Hmm. So let's try powering the phone off and then connecting the charger. Result: the phone powers on! But, the charger is still not detected when Mobian has booted.
This is with a UBports CE Pinephone running Mobian. The charger is a Deltaco USBC-AC130 and the cable is an Otterbox 78-52671.
Now my problem is that the Pinephone, the new charger and the new cable are the only USB-C products I own, so it's rather difficult to know where the problem lies. Since the phone starts when the charger is connected I'm guessing the cable is okay, and the charger cannot be completely dead, at least.
Has anyone else tried to charge the Pinephone with a USB-C PD charger? Did it work?
I got charging to work at 7.5 W (USB Battery Charging standard 1.1?) by disabling the ANX7688 chip as described here.
