Vagrant Cascadian on Nostr: Well... I think this might be the end of my #PinePhone ... I have been noticing ...
Well... I think this might be the end of my #PinePhone ... I have been noticing unreliable charging for a few days or so, and now when charging the charge port and cable get VERY HOT to the touch in under a second... I presume something in the connector is shorted.
Still works "fine" with 40% or wait, 37% ... no 35% battery ...
I guess I could maybe charge the battery with an external charger?
Seems like a pocketfire waiting to happen, though :(
