      I can see on github that v0.5 has been released.
      But only v0.4 seems to be available on the open store.

        @Eric-H probably the store review still in progress.

            Hi @Eric-H

            Here is an explanation:

              I tested the 0.5 release on surya and I can confirm that it works as expected.

              Regarding the udev rule, it works perfectly with permissions 0666.
              But if I try 0664, it no longer works…
              What is the group of the /sys/class/power_supply/battery/charging_enabled file on other devices?

                  @Eric-H try the next rule with 0664:

                  ACTION=="add|change", SUBSYSTEM=="power_supply", KERNEL=="battery", RUN+="/bin/chmod 0664 /sys/class/power_supply/%k/charging_enabled", RUN+="/bin/chown phablet /sys/class/power_supply/%k/charging_enabled"

                    I think it's indeed the right approach.
                    I will confirm today that it works.

                      The udev rule is working properly:
                      -rw-rw-r-- 1 phablet system 4096 janv. 23 09:08 /sys/class/power_supply/battery/charging_enabled
                      And the content of charging_enabled goes well from 1 to 0 when the charge exceeds 85%.

                      But, despite this, the device continues to charge beyond 85 % !

                      (I believe that, on surya and karna, we must have to write in another file.
                      I will try with `/sys/class/power_supply/battery/battery_charging_enabled )

                        According to https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/200032/difference-between-system-files-charging-enabled-vs-battery-charging-enabled battery-charging-enabled has a different behavior than charging-enabled.
                        So I will just make a MR to add the above udev rule in surya and karna.
                        Thanks for your work

                          On my N100 I don't have /sys/class/power_supply/battery/charging_enabled but instead I have /sys/class/power_supply/battery/battery_charging_enabled

                            A merge request has been proposed on surya, but another (global) solution is suggested in the comments :

                              Ahoy, there's battery_charging_enabled support in the latest builds and I need beta testers to check the limiting battery's charge.

                              You need to apply new udev rule from README and install the latest build from Github Actions.

                                Thanks !
                                I installed latest build from Github Actions.

                                Notice that, on surya, default permissions are :

                                • -rwxrwxrwx 1 system system 4096 févr. 17 11:15 battery_charging_enabled
                                • -rw-r--r-- 1 system system 4096 févr. 17 11:15 charging_enabled

                                I leave them untouched for the first tests
                                Let me know if you need tests with different permissions

                                  • when charge is more than 85%, device doesn't charge (and doesn't seem to discharge until unplugged)

                                    Test 2 (with udev rules) : same results as test 1

                                    I applied udev rules from README :

                                    phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ ls -al /sys/class/power_supply/battery/{battery_,}charging_enabled

                                    -rw-rw-r-- 1 phablet system 4096 févr. 17 17:06 /sys/class/power_supply/battery/charging_enabled
                                    
                                    • when charge is less than 85%, device charges :
                                      tail /sys/class/power_supply/battery/{battery_,}charging_enabled
                                      ==> /sys/class/power_supply/battery/battery_charging_enabled <==

                                      1
                                      
                                    • when charge is more than 85%, device doesn't charge (and doesn't seem to discharge until unplugged) :

                                          Yo, power monitoring and fast charging detection are now supported and I need beta testers (again!) to check how well it works.

                                          You need to install the latest build from Github Actions and start charging your device. If something is wrong - submit your power.txt.
