Hello dear Community,

every time I'm trying to charge my n900 with several wallwart chargers from Nokia it is starting to charge, but ending that after about 30s.
Charging with USB works without Problems, what could that be?

Thanks!

I have the same problem.

Did you find the cause of the problem ?

Try charge21.sh script by joerg_rw's/shadowjk's (search forum for it) while connected to charger, and report back terminal output. Also, bq27200.sh script from same authors may be helpful to determine, if wall charger is detected properly (via short on D+D- pins, that is factory-made on modern microUSB plug chargers)

from repositories, extras-devel. Also, You can download i2cset separately, from the same page where charge21.sh and bq27200.sh resides (one owned by shadowjk)

// Edit
OK, I've found it for You:

I looked for it on this side, you'll only find i2cget there, not i2cset, wich is also required for the charge21.sh script...

apt-get install i2c-tools
from extras-devel (enable/add it in application manager)

charge21.sh will create a logfile in /home/user/MyDocs/charge.log which might be vaguely useful for troubleshooting charging issues.
