henesyminute: is there a known fix for the pocket not beginning charging while powered on or is that WIP01:06
minutehenesy: not yet reproduced over here, but i'd like to solve it of course01:33
henesyoh interesting01:40
henesyi am just using an anker usbc cord and the provided crowd supply brick Wall Mount AC Adapter, USB Type-C, 60W Power Supply w/ US Plug (no USB Type-C Cable)01:41
henesyhas never started charging while turned on for me01:42
henesyare all the people experiencing the issue in the 01:42
henesyUS?01:42
chdoes it charge when off?01:42
henesyyeah01:43
henesyi have to power off the lpc then plug it in01:43
henesythen charges fine once i power it on if i plugged in power while the lpc was off01:43
chshould try it with my anker, it certainly didnt like charging at all. but havent tried lpc off01:44
henesybut if the lpc is on then it doesnt charge at all01:44
henesymy wonder is if it has to do with eu vs us wall power or smth silly01:44
chpocket evokes very good hacker vibes so far :)01:56

jfredI was poking around linux power management docs and hoo boy the warning at the top of this one is fun XD https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/power/swsusp.txt02:37
jfredjust went to see what s2idle would do on the pocket out of curiosity. it suspended, and power usage dropped a bit... but the lpc wake command didn't bring it back ^^;02:39

jfredgives me hope that it might be possible to get working on the pocket too - but, I bet getting s2idle working first is a prerequisite03:04
jfredah, some light reading: https://docs.kernel.org/admin-guide/pm/suspend-flows.html03:07
chhenesy: can confirm my anker charger exhibits the same problem. can only charge (in 5v/100ma mode) when lpc is off03:08
chhenesy: however, when the main cpu is running it charges :D03:11
chhenesy: with main cpu on, reversing the usb-c plug is necessary to pick the right direction and then it charges03:17

NanoCodeBugminute: I put a reply on the pocket pd charging thread, I have a basic pd debugger and there is at least one fixable thing with how the pocket talks to devices - it requests incorrect amperage - but i doubt its the actual reason why it refuses to communicate with my charger when powered on.06:02
NanoCodeBugah looking at the pocket firmware source it is just hard coded to 10 ma, so definitely not the problem06:09
NanoCodeBugthe large number of capability request messages is odd though, I don't have any ideas but the difference in the two communication traces is *interesting*.06:10
NanoCodeBugmost baffling is it immediately successfully negotiates power after som (a311d) power off.06:36

joschI cannot help but notice that with all the people who have been demanding that the Reform charge via USB-C because it is so much better, this feature has caused quite a bit more trouble and frustration than charging via a barrel jack with anything from 9-36 V with sufficient amperage behind it. Maybe the traditional connector with just +/- poles has some advantages after all... ;)09:56
[tj]josch: they want usb-c because it works great for them when someone else has done all the work10:01

Zabathere are ICs you can use that handle PD negotiation for you in barrel jack replacement applications 10:58
Zabaobviously it’s less flexible than doing the negotiation yourself10:58
Zabaa wide input voltage range is nice but it does entail having more complex power circuitry in your device, which in case of USB PD can in theory be offloaded to the power supply 11:01

Zabathe fusb302 is a PD interface chip, yes11:10
Zababut what I mean is you can get chips that handle the entire negotiation process and do not require a host MCU at all11:10

gsoraahhh15:57
gsorahuh, i should check the mtk card i got for my reform2 then15:57
NanoCodeBugthe pocket's m.2 b-key is setup for a wwan card - so it only hooks up usb, sim, and audio lines.15:58
NanoCodeBugiirc minute said there were something like only 3 wifi cards on the market that are m.2 b-key and use usb - it's a rare configuration.15:59
