Public bug reported: On Samsung Series 9 laptops the battery state and the charger status are incorrectly reported in kernel 4.15.
This bug is a regression: it has been fixed in 2012 [1] it used to work fine until Linux 14.10 (included). Quoting Matthew McCallum from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/971061/comments/161 > If I disconnect power, remove the back cover, disconnect both the main > battery and the backup battery, I am able to get power status updates (e.g. > battery will show as charging/charged when plugged in, or just regular > battery when not). Once I sleep, I have to repeat this process if I want the > battery status to work again. > > `acpi -p` correctly shows the charging state, but `tlp-stat -b` does not.
