Battery Not Charging, but lightning icon displayed - Steamdeck 512 LCD
Issue I'm having is that the battery is not charging when plugged into a known good power source, plug, cable. It used this plug previously successfully and it still changes other devices (e.g. laptops, phones, etc.).
Here's what I'm seeing in the different modes:
Running Bazzite-deck-gnome variant, build Stable (F42.20250603) with Kernel Version 6.14.6-106.bazzite.fc42.x86_64 on Steamdeck 512 LCD
edit/update: running
Update/Solution: Completely discharging and then plugging in and charging to full seems to have reset the battery. Not sure what happened there, but leaving this update in case experienced by others.
Here's what I'm seeing in the different modes:
- Game Mode: The "lightening" bolt shows up in the battery icon upon connection, but it doesn't actually charge (battery slowly drains).
- Desktop Mode (Gnome): When plugged in it does not indicate it's charging when plugged in (and, in fact, does not charge).
- Powered off/Shut Down Plugged in: Out of curiosity I wanted to see if it charged when shut down. It does not (and doesn't respond in any way when plugged in).

upower -i /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_BAT1 results in a battery state of "discharging" when uplugged, but the strange to me "pending-charge" when plugged in (where it is not actually charging).Update/Solution: Completely discharging and then plugging in and charging to full seems to have reset the battery. Not sure what happened there, but leaving this update in case experienced by others.
