This is a really good point. At conferences where I would find myself walking around wearing a backpack anyway, adding the X Mini to the backpack along with the Nexdock wouldn’t add all that much weight. This is one area where the lapdock model gives you much more flexibility than a traditional laptop, you can swap from one lapdock to the next without closing any applications. Try that with a pair of traditional laptops!.

About the only issue I have with the Mini X is the rigidity of the usb c to usb c cable that comes with it. It makes it awkward to position your phone and the dock. Does anyone know of a cable to that is more flexible and not so long? I mean I need 6in / 15cm cable and that is it. The phone is always being used as a second screen, and so I don’t need it to be long.
I’ve found this sort of cable to work well. Having a high quality cable seems to be important. The lower quality cables have a tendency to fail, causing flickering on the screen and other problems:

Thanks Kyle. I didn’t get that one because Amazon.de could get me something a bit faster. I have been using my L5 quite a bit lately with the Mini X and it has been an ideal situation for the most part!!!
My only real gripe about the Mini X is that it can’t be charged via USB C. Only the little barrel connector that comes with it. Which I can’t find at the moment.
But the Mini X has basically tuned my Librem 5 into the work break programming station. I am able to work on my side projects and it all works awesomely. Syncing things with Resilio Sync things are all synced up when I get home.
The only bummer is that the L5 cannot negotiate cell signals when close to the border here.
Still being able to have a pocket computer like the L5 enable this kind of thing is truly awesome.

I found this adapter works so that I can charge it with my existing USB-C chargers:

Thanks Kyle. Once I get things a little more sorted, I’ll do a little write up about using the L5 in the way that I am, and use that as an opportunity to give it a little review. Try to spread some positivity about the awesome software that is being done.
I really appreciate all the work being done on the L5!!

And copying my comment from above: Weirdly, the three larger models all seem to have USB-C for power input.
I don’t know what UPERFECT were thinking there??? I’m not a fan of charging via USB-C but if you already have a number of models using USB-C for charging and a later model released after the X Mini that also uses USB-C for charging, why slot in one model that does it differently? I can only guess that it is a design consequence of the smallest form factor.
I just got my X Mini today as well, seems to work pretty well. After realizing you need to enable touch support in phosh-mobile-settings, it mostly works. The hardware itself is alright. The keyboard a little small, the trackpad sounds a lot when clicking it, the bezel is a bit thick and when touching the screen too hard on a black background will show a bit of backlight bleed (just flimsy plastic protection on top of the LCD/digitizer I guess). But when it was on sale for less than $200 I just couldn´t resist and it is certainly worth that price. I am writing this on it right now.
The only big issue I have is that the phone does not charge from the laptop. Some users reported low charging rate, but I am talking about it not charging at all. Anyone got a similar issue?
The following is also spamming my journal, unrelated to the charging though. Not sure why that warning is spammed, everything works as expected in phoc as far as I can see.

So it seems to at least detect the dock battery, and seems like it can charge for 5V 500mAh. Maybe it´s actually charging, maybe it´s just so slow that I don´t realize it as well as there is some bug in gnome-power-settings that it thinks the phone battery is in state “Discharging” as well as a bug in phosh that the top-right battery icon is not showing that it is charging?

When your Librem 5 is not connected to some power supply (source) it will show very same output. This means therefore, as you already supposed, that there is not happening any charging of the connected device battery. One additional approach would be that you at least check if this USB-C port charges some other smartphone … not sure at this moment what else you might want to try there.
It seems to be charging my Android phone just fine (an OnePlus 7). Will try and see if I can find any logs from dmesg or journalctl.

I did “sudo journalctl -f” while putting in the dock, this was the result. The prints from bq25890-charger looks a bit suspicious, but I don’t know how to interpret what they might mean.

I can’t speak for the battery icon part, but even though you are getting 500mA from the dock to the Librem 5, if the Librem 5 is currently using more power than that (which is quite possible when docked and doing things), then it could very well be discharging (it is using more than 500mA power, therefore it has to get that power from the battery).
You need more cat /sys/class/... to look at the actual current flow with the battery, rather than the option negotiated with the (potential) power source (over USB).
e.g. cat /sys/class/power_supply/max170xx_battery/current_now
should be negative if discharging.

It is negative, so it is discharging.

Thanks for the tip. After some more investigation it seems like the dock is providing less power than the phone is consuming, so it’s technically true that the battery is discharging (at the same time as it is being charged).
When having the “Power” section open in Settings, it jumps for 4-5 hours expected battery life to 6-10 hours when I plug in the dock. I also found gnome-power-manager which clearly states that while the battery is in “discharge” mode, the “AC adapter” has “Online” set to “yes” when the dock gets plugged in. So I guess that phosh and the battery icon probably just looks at the battery “state” which is “discharging”, which was the only thing that confused me (also the fact that i saw 6-7 hours estimated battery life when plugged in the first few times when I looked at the battery stats, which is what I’d expect from a phone when it’s not plugged in…). I’d prefer if phosh looked at if the charger was “online” rather than if the battery is discharging, would make more sense to me.
Hey Kyle I asked this in the other dock thread, but I noticed with my Nexdock that if I have my samsung connected, even if the phone and dock screen go into screen saver mode the phone continues to charge and the screen can awaken with mouse/keyboard.
With the Librem 5 once it blanks, shortly thereafter the nexdoc shuts down completely and can only be woken with the power button and as a result is also not charging the phone. I discovered this when I left the L5 connected to it thinking it would continue to charge but it just drained as if it was not plugged in. Is this a hardware issue or is it a driver/kernel/whatever issue?

I suspect when the L5 screen blanks it disables not only its own display (to save power) but any displays it is connected to, so the Nexdock thinks it has been disconnected and starts the timer for shutdown.
I personally have automatic blank screen disabled on my own L5, but I do have “Dim Screen When Inactive” enabled.
