@blue_led, joerg_rw and other h-e-n developers -

could you please take a look at usbhostmode.diff and confirm (or not) that

Code:

+                if (machine_is_nokia_rx51()) {
+                        musb_platform_resume(musb);
+                        musb_set_vbus(musb, 0);
+ 
+                        devctl &= ~MUSB_DEVCTL_SESSION;
+                        musb_writeb(musb->mregs, MUSB_DEVCTL, devctl);
+ 
+                        musb_writeb(musb->mregs, MUSB_TESTMODE, 0);
+                }

is missing a call to musb_platform_suspend(musb); at the end of the block

btw I hope I've not missed to link to it in post #9 :-)

ultra-terse howto: get charge.sh from ShadowJK, install so you can execute it.
do:
start H_E_N, select speed
only *now* apply external VBUS
*now* immediately click vboost in H_E_N
enum, mount, etc
now do boostoff; charge.sh

to end: kill charge.sh, then close H_E_N

cheers

Thanks, I'll read it and try it in stride.

I'm just using an external power supply and the battery continues to fall alarmingly.

Thank you again.

why do you think so? aah wait, seems this is a code snippet called when disabling hostmode? then probably yes, should (maybe) fix the annoying increased-power-consumption problem after ending hostmode.

I still grin about musb_set_vbus(musb, 0); as it's a completely empty function - alas

And should fix annoying KP bug when device reboots instead of shutdown when a charger is connected. And annoying bug when you cannot power-up the device with charger connected. etc.

I've already sent a patch to Pali for inclusion in next KP as it seems like correct fix for the above bugs. But don't expect me to be able to grok in a day or two a patch that was produced in 6 months as a result of combined work of 6-7 developers. That is why I need someone who is familiar with code to confirm.

I still grin about musb_set_vbus(musb, 0); as it's a completely empty function - alas

And what that should mean (I know what empty function is)

Shouldn't mind it too much since using both USB host mode and flashlight together is probably the best way to drain your battery within minutes. :P

Now I started writing kernel driver for battery charging (kernel module for chip bq2415x).

Do you mean this or the other way round? My experience is that the reboot command causes poweroff (only); also (as you say), the device doesn't power up when charging.
- when using Kernel-Power.
