Charging not recognized #1205

Open sven2778 opened 4 years ago

sven2778 commented 4 years ago

Describe the problem:

Pop_os does not recognize my machine(ASUS ROG GL752VW) is charging. The machine does charge as the battery percentage does not go down. Tried unplugging and re-plugin in the charger and reboot cycles doe not seem to affect the issue either. This issues forces the machine into battery mode by default so one would manually have to change the power profile to performance for each and every power cycle. **Steps to reproduce:** 1. Boot into Pop_OS 2. Plug in charger 3. Check charging status **Distribution:**

"Pop!_OS 20.04 LTS"

Pop version:

5.2.0~1588203971~20.04~d94d9ec

Transferred from gtk-theme because this issue does not appear to be related to the Theme, and instead might be a bug in upower or with the ACPI/firmware for this machine.

sounds good thank you for looking into the issue.

You may have to ask ASUS for help with this. Your only choices are looking for firmware updates and installing them, and/or installing a newer kernel that may have the fix.

I'm experiencing the same issue after recently switching from Windows 10 -> Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS.

Laptop model: Acer Nitro AN515-54

I'm also facing the same issue on Lenovo Ideapad Slim 5. It seems to charge, and the indicator is glowing but the battery icon shows "Not Charging". Seems to be an issue with Pop_os! only.

Update: It started working again. Not sure how.

Same issue here, Lenovo Ideapad 3 (82MFS00200), it doesn't show as charging but it actually is charging, however the battery percentage does not change

kanak8278 commented 1 year ago

This is not an OS issue. What happens with Lenovo laptops (some) to save battery life and stop to overcharge, It disconnects the charging. It's not an issue. https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Gaming-Laptops/Laptop-wont-charge-Stuck-at-95-plugged-in-not-charging/m-p/4030955\ https://www.quora.com/Is-it-normal-for-my-laptop-battery-to-be-at-95-plugged-in-and-not-return-to-100

Here, when i plug says that is not chargin, but when i unplug says that is charging!

leviport commented 4 months ago

As stated above, many laptops (including System76 laptops) have charge thresholds by default. If you see "Not charging", it usually means that your battery has charged to full and the charger is turned off so that the battery isn't continuously charged at 100%. This is done for battery health and longevity. Depending on the make and model of the laptop, the start/stop values may be configurable.

This issue is not resolved, I'm still facing it with my laptop (Samsung Galaxy Book2 running Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS). This thing comes and goes and I'm not sure why, looks random. My battery is at 25% and not charging. I need to turn it off to charge it, but somedays this problem simply does not exist.

leviport commented 3 months ago

@arthurto your machine's EC is probably responsible for this behavior, not Pop!_OS, but I can reopen this issue for a bit longer if you want to investigate it further. Comparing this behavior to that of other operating systems would be helpful. You may also want to investigate your BIOS settings to make sure there are no charge threshold settings that might be interfering.

I was experiencing a similar issue (Samsung laptop - model: Np350XAA). In my case, after connecting the the charger it still says it is not charging. But after waiting like 5 minutes the charging icon shows up and it says the time remaining until fully charged. It seems as if pop os have to detect at least a 1% increase in the battery charge so it can update the status to say it is charging. Unfortunately my laptop is old and does not charge fast, so it leads to the impression that the charging status is not working. Maybe it is a more complicated issue, but that is what it was happening to me.

I'm facing a similar issue on a Lenovo Yoga i7 running Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS.

The behavior I am seeing is that after plugging in the laptop, regardless of the percent charge, the battery/charging indicator does not change until it increases by 1%, after which it shows as charging. If I plug in the charger and then remove it, the indicator changes to charging only after the charger is removed, and then after about 10 seconds returns back to the regular battery icon. Could it be that the is indicator being updated from a source which isn't updated instantly (something similar to this stack exchange question)?
