SUMMARY When phone is charging it goes into sleep state after predefined timeout, which will, by the rule, interrupt device charging. This is really a bad first impression users are facing, not only for the PlaMo, but for the chosen underlying OS as well. This do not occur while Caffeine mode is enabled, though. After small amount of time while using the Mobian Posh OS, I haven't noticed the same problem. It seams that phone don't go into suspend while charging, and this appears confirmed by their wiki: https://wiki.mobian.org/doku.php?id=faq#charge-is-slow-or-phone-discharge-while-plugged I don't know if this is entirely true, because my impression is that phone takes longer to wake up after 100% battery charge has been reached. Nevertheless, the screen's power off and lock settings are respected. Also, within their settings application, there is an option to enable suspend while charging, which is disabled by default. IMO, this is a good solution, since it can be eventually easily reversed. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS PinePhonePro Operating System: Manjaro Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.103.0 Qt Version: 5.15.8 Kernel Version: 6.1.12-1-MANJARO-ARM (64-bit)
Is this still relevant?
(In reply to Florian RICHER from comment #1) > Is this still relevant? Manjaro ARM releases haven't been updated consistently in a while so I don't use them anymore, but with Mobian trixie: Kernel Version: 6.12-rockchip Phosh:Gnome 48 vs KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.13.0 Qt Version: 6.8.2 Situation is pretty much the same. Phosh, on their Settings > Power > Automatic suspend have two separate cards: "On battery power" and "When plugged in". The latter is unchecked, in spite the recommendation/info stated right below to keep automatic suspend enabled to avoid higher power consumption. And here is the updated wiki link: https://wiki.debian.org/Mobian/FAQ#Charge_is_slow_.28or_phone_discharge_while_plugged.29 PosmarketOS currently undergo heavy transfer to systemd, so I haven't tested it.
