I do not know if this could be hardware issue, OS (Manjaro) or anything else?

Thank you for advice and suggestions.

PS: I've just noticed this post with similar, possibly the same issues https://forum.manjaro.org/t/usb-port-bre...sue/139653

One of the nice things about this hardware is how easy it is to rule out software: Try a different operating system on micro SD card. Hopefully you don't have an issue with U-Boot preventing that.

What are you trying to connect? The PBP is a low power device and things like large external drives (storage/DVD/CD writers) will require a powered USB hub to function.

I used just ordinary devices, keyboard, mouse, a small WiFi adapter, eth adapter etc. It used to work. I have installed postmarketOS and had the same issue, no USB available. Therefore I assume it is problem with the hardware.

Sorry, I can’t assist with PostmarketOS/Manjaro; I don’t use them, my PBP was only Manjaro the first boot up to check if the hardware was working.

With that said, I can usually use a <20gb pen-drive and a mouse fine on my PBP, (without the additional NVMe kit installed) utilizing the stock power adapter. Anything more than that and I need a powered hub.

Try a Debian based OS if you have the time, Kali & Debian have been reliable for me.
