Device Not Detecting Charger

rnieblesealo · 2024-05-10 03:59:26

Hi! I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but I'm not sure how to approach resolving this issue.

I own a Lenovo Legion Slim 5 laptop, running an Arch Linux + Windows 11 dual boot.

Recently, I shut down Arch using

shutdown now

After doing so, the system hung with a blinking dash in the upper left corner for quite some, which was unusual. I held down the power button (yikes!), booted into Arch again, and kept using my computer normally.

A short while after, I noticed that my i3status battery indicator was behaving as if my battery were discharging, despite the fact that my AC power adapter was plugged in and the percentage was increasing.

I booted into Windows 11 to check if the issue persisted, and it did: the battery percent went up, but the system seemed to think I was running on battery.

After uninstalling and reinstalling the ACPI compliant battery from Windows' device manager and rebooting, per the recommendation of multiple troubleshooting guides, the issue persisted, but now the device's battery percent isn't even going up like it was before.

Here's some output that might be useful. All commands were ran with the AC adapter plugged in:

acpi -b

Battery 0: Discharging, 52%, 05:01:25 remaining
Battery 1: Discharging, 0%, rate information unavailable

The thing charges via USB, right?

tl;dr: Shutdown, press the power button and keep it down for 30s …
