When I read your post I turned on one of my test phones,    it has been turned off and sitting for almost 2 weeks.

I do not remember how much charge it had when I turned it off,  But it now shows 88% charge.

> That phone is a PMOS Convergent phone,  with Phosh/Arch on an sd card. with the original Pine battery.

So while your phone may possibly have a hardware fault,  I do not think it is a fault in the Pine phone design.

Or possibly a defective battery ?

Try charging to 100%,  then remove the battery,  then re-install after 24 hours and see what condition the battery is in then.

If I have to remove the battery to do this test, then it sort of defeats the purpose of the power down feature. Then something is causing it to not completely power down.
