Category
Other
Hardware
Heltec Wireless Tracker
Firmware Version
2.5.20
Description
I can see the unit charging on the web interface while usb cable is plugged in over time but the USB flag & charging flag is showing false. Also consider adding release to the JSON report Full Release ID is missing in the apps.
Relevant log output

Thanks for writing in. Can I confirm by "see the unit charging", you're seeing the charging icon in the web interface or through the app? However, the MQTT Json content shows the wrong values?
Yes the weird thing is now that it hit 100% it changed them, but during charging it doesn’t say connected or charging, but you see the battery charge growing.
