> TL;DR – when the PPKB is attached to a PinePhone (Pro), please treat the phone’s USB port as if it did not exist.
why don't they make the case cover the phone's usb port? saying "don't use it" isn't a solution for such an easy mistake to make
@avery I think it may be used for transfer only in the future so power via the keyboard port and data via the PinePhone port. However that requires usb C role negotiation to work flawlessly beforehand so it doesn't deliver too much power and fry the device. So best to just say don't do it for now.
