Phone no longer charges since latest OTA update
-
I applied OTA-24 yesterday. Since then, the phone no longer charges when I plug it into the PC while booted to UT. When I do, the battery icon turns green and the lightning symbol appears for about one second, then it disappears and the battery icon turn white again. If I let it plugged in for hours, the battery charge doesn't increase.
Turning the phone off and plugging it to a regular USB charger still works, thankfully.
Another side effect of the latest update is that touching the fingerprint sensor at the back no longer wakes the phone up (not a big deal as far as I'm concerned, but a regression nonetheless).

After retesting yesterday and today, issue no longer manifest itself (don't know why). And that also covers waking up the phone by touching the fingerprint sensor at the back.
In any case, thread can be marked as resolved (my apologies for the noise).

@lakotaubp Many thanks for the pointer. Problem reported as https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/2076.

Small clarification: if the USB cable is plugged after unlocking the phone (I'm talking about the UT-level PIN, not the SIM PIN), then charging takes place as expected.

When a Xiaomi Mi A2 I used did not charge anymore or only very slowly, the problem was fixed by using a different USB cable and a stronger charger.
The old USB cable and charger still worked perfectly fine with other mobile phones, so this was clearly an issue with the Xiaomi Mi A2.
This was under Android, so I think this is a hardware problem, that can appear after some time.
