@linmob > For reference: At least according to the Powersupply app, I managed to charge my Librem 5 with 5V at 3A - but only with two specific chargers.

*Every* compliant >=15W PD 2.0 charger will provide the L5 with 5V/3A - unless something's broken, in which case: send logs!!!

@dos @linmob to add to this the #PinephonePro on arch for me charges up to 11w. So not sure whats going on with testing on their side. This was also measure by power at the wall and not what the phone itself was reporting.

@dos Only one out of the three chargers I use regularily fails to charge the Librem 5 (a secondary device for me these days) properly - it's a Anker USB C 47W, 523 Charger (Nano 3). With two out of three chargers working, finding the motivation to figure out how to send logs is really hard, sadly, there's too much else I actually have to and want to do.

@linmob Just for the record, whenever I stumbled upon a PD charger that L5 did not like, it turned out to have an out-of-spec voltage drop and it was the phone's undervoltage protection firing up. I suspect that other devices are configured to be much more forgiving to bad chargers.

One issue that was on our side was incorrect handling of contracts with more than 3A, fixed in March. All the other issues I'm aware about were fixed years ago at this point.
