    Nexus 5 BATT_ID issue

    Hey folks,
    I have a used Nexus 5 motherboard I bought with a ripped out battery connector. Replaced the connector but phone won't start unless VBATT_THERM is disconnected. Then it seems to work fine but of course only shows 0% charge. Did factory reset and it does detect the charger.
    I've tried 3x batteries and they all measure ~68Kohms to ground on that pin.

    To make matters weirder, BATT_ID is grounded on the battery itself, I cannot understand why they even bothered with it connecting to the MCU. VBATT_THERM (i.e. VBAT_THRM) also connects to the MCU.

    Schematics (page 223): https://mega.co.nz/#!AoY2gKbA!5fTTr1...p6Od5GPNdUL7Rw

    Thanks for any help!

    traced everything out and I think it must be the GPIO pins on the MCU. cant fix it without painful BGA work :/

      MacBook Air A2337 (820-02016) USB-C Port Issue – Only Works in One Orientation (CC Line Problem?)
      by rounin
      Hi everyone,

      I'm working on a MacBook Air 2020 (A2337, board 820-02016) and running into a strange USB-C issue. I've gone through quite a bit of testing and part replacement, but I'm stuck — hoping someone here can shed some light.

      🛠 Original Issue
      The machine initially wouldn't negotiate 20V over USB-C — stuck at 5V.
      Diagnosis showed PP1V5_UPC0_LDO_CORE shorted to ground.

      I replaced U3100 (UF400) using a donor board (A2179), and the machine powers on fine now.

      ⚠️ New Problem: One USB-C Port Only Works in One Orientation...

      Three 820-01700 32GB Logic Boards Same Issue: Won't Wake From Hibernate
      by ugamazing
      I have three identical-spec 820-01700 boards (2.6/32/512), and ALL THREE boards came to us with the same fault, from different sources: The boards don't wake from hibernation with the keyboard or lid, they ONLY wake when you press the power button. I understand this is a very minor issue, but the boards must be fixed!

      We will of course begin with the obvious (checking lid signals), but I couldn't help but notice these three boards were all 32GB variants. Has anyone noticed an issue relating to these 32GB boards in particular? I of course don't think it's a RAM issue, but it's bizarre...

      HP 15-cw1002ua strange keyboard issue

      Hello guys!
      I have a strange issue with my laptop keyboard and I'm lost trying to detect what's wrong - the KB9028Q-C or the keyboard itself.
      It powers on OK and has no other issues except the following:
      • CAPS LOCK does not work at all
      • Fn button toggles Flight Mode
      • When I press 't' or '5', it produces 't5', and when I press 'y' or '6', it produces 'y6'
      • (with SHIFT pressed: 't%' and 'y^' respectively)
      I initially thought it was a keyboard malfunction (internal short, etc.),
      but when I press and hold...

      Alienware 15 R2 Service Tag: DL7NN32 ISSUE (Battery is not charging)
      by Simone Vergani
      Hello everyone,

      I'm experiencing an issue with my Alienware 15 R2 (Service Tag: DL7NN32). The laptop works perfectly when connected to the AC adapter — it powers on and functions normally. However, the battery does not charge. If I disconnect the DC adapter, the laptop shuts down immediately, as the battery is at 0%. I have replaced the battery with a new compatible one, but the issue persists. I also replaced the AC adapter with a compatible one, but the battery still doesn't charge.

      To assist with troubleshooting, I'm attaching two power circuit schematics:

      Dynabook Satellite Pro C50D-B-100 - BIOS Issue, Black Screen
      by wizard13
      Hello everyone,

      I am experiencing a BIOS-related issue with my Dynabook Satellite Pro C50D-B-100. When I power on the laptop, the screen stays black, and there is no response from the system. I suspect a corrupted BIOS.

      I have checked the forum and the available documentation but could not find a solution specific to my issue.
