Hello
I am using a Blackberry 7290 connected via USB to a PC with Linux Red Hat 2.4.18. and the message about insufficient power for charging on USB appears.
I have tried to use the bcharge utility from the Barry project v0.7. I compiled it with "g++ -o bcharge bcharge.cc -lusb" but it doesn't seem to work. Bcharge says "Scanning for Blackberry devices... Found device #002... adjusting charge settings... no Pearl adjustment... done"
But lsusb shows that the MaxPower value for my Blackberry continues to be 100mA instead of the supposed 500mA.
The libusb version used to compile the bcharge utility is libusb-0.1.so.4. The firmware version of the Blackberry is 4.0.0.255. I have also tried using kernel 2.4.20 but the same problem occurs.
Also, If I let the Blackberry connected via USB during a long time it gets switched off or enter in a kind of suspended mode and then I have to switch it on manually. Is this normal? Is it related to the insufficient power for charging issue?
Does anyone have the same problem or has any idea about what is happening and/or why bcharge is not working?
Thanks very much
