<p>Skv: </p> <hr /> <div>{{under construction}}<br /> <br /> This page details a hardware fix for an issue that was found on early PinePhone hardware revisions (see [[PinePhone#Hardware revisions]] for an overview of the different revisions) and has been fixed since the 1.2b hardware revision.<br /> <br /> == Affected Units ==<br /> # [[PinePhone v1.2‎]] - UBports Community Edition<br /> # [[PinePhone v1.2a‎]] - postmarketOS Community Edition<br /> <br /> == Disclaimer ==<br /> <br /> This fix requires desoldering a tiny resistor, therefore some experience with soldering is highly recommended.<br /> <br /> == Issue description ==<br /> <br /> When connecting a VBUS powered device to the affected devices, like USB-C docks or hubs, the brightness changes significantly. The cause of the issue was a VBUS_CTRL signal provided by ANX7688 to control VBUS power direction. The signal is connected to AXP803 to tell it to not trying to charge from VBUS when the VBUS is generated from the battery.
