Battery won't charge.
#10
Perhaps charging deserves its own thread ? ?

The fact that the Pine phone does not recognize a usb-c charger was mentioned sometime back, I attempted to use a brand new usb-c charger
a few weeks ago and thought that charger was defective before reading that post.

Laptop usb ports do not seem to provide enough power to charge the phone while the phone is turned on.

A 2amp charger seems to be enough, but a 3 amp charger does seem to work better.

Phone power consumption will vary between distro's and even from one update to another. (Also from each different phone edition)

Not as a technical statement, just from my own observations.
