Support for ipad air 2 #33

Closed agibson2 closed 9 years ago

agibson2 commented 9 years ago

Anyone know what it would take to support iPad air 2? Interestingly the product id shows the same as ipad4 definition in the code (0x12ab) according to dmesg. Why would the ipad air 2 show the same product id number as the ipad 4? It just shows not charging with the latest code installed.

I have an iPad Air 2 64GB Gold Cellular device.

lsusb: Bus 003 Device 009: ID 05ac:12ab Apple, Inc.

I am using CentOS 7 btw. Sometimes when I plug it in the charge icon just goes off and on constantly like I am plugging and unplugging the device in every second.

This works fine for my iPad Air 2, no source code changes needed. The ID is indeed the same.

@agibson2 It could be system related issue or some hardware problem. With the confirmation by @Hackworth I am closing this issue.
