The PHY shouldn't need that much voltage (maybe even just 1.8V) but in case DC-IN voltage is insufficient strange things might happen.
a couple questions to clarify...
Are you saying to provide power from a controlled source via the Euler bus (pins 2, 4, 6, & 9) INSTEAD of over the micro-USB power port?
Also, I have a 3.5A uUSB wall wart that I bought for my Pi2 (I got tired of seeing the rainbow cube while watching videos in kodi). Currently, I'm just using the power supply that I bought with my backer kit. Do you think the 3.5A ps will help? Or, is the AXP803 pmic limiting the voltage (or current) through the board? (which is my guess, and thus powering via euler bus by-passes that... but, power management is not my strong suit)
thanks
