That is indeed weird.
Can you share some more details? Like charger make andmodel, which port is used and all that. Does windows show what the charger negotiated somewhere?

I have a USB-PD analyzer at home (and I am not there). When I get back, I will take a look with the analyzer and post back with my findings here.
Thanks for the recommendation. I picked up the Anker 737 and it charges the laptop, thankfully!
Thanks to the others for the recommendations as well
With the 3.03b update my steamdeck charger is now working again for the framework, thanks
I retested my chargers with 3.03b, changes are in bold:
Cute little 18W power bank module:
Any idea when this update might be availble for the Framework Laptop 16? I have a no-name 4s lithium battery 140W PD board that I’d like to be able to use but it cuts out constantly trying to start charging because of the sudden load step which it sees as over current. Once the laptop does manage to start charging it’s mostly stable although still prone to seeing load steps as overcurrent events and dropping into over current protect again.
Thanks for these tests! These three were the ones I was most curious about. Sadly it seems the AMD framework laptop is still worse at charging than my deceased 11th gen Intel framework laptop.
Just wanted to chime in and say the Minix Neo P1 does not work on version 3.03b
It’s just got a bit of a mental block with those, since it’s possible to kickstart it is perfectly capable hardware wise so this may get fixed just as the sub 45w pd stuff got fixed.
I have the same issue, I brought with me only the steam deck charger, and it doesn’t charge my framework 13 amd 7640.
Cruelly, I can’t update the firmware to fix the charge without a charger plugged in.
Can second that this is the case
Adding data here: My FW13 AMD doesn’t charge through Apple’s USB-C dongle (A2119). Tried it with both the MacBook Pro charger, and my own Anker charger, which both work fine when hooked straight up to my laptop. I’m using Firmware 0.0.3.3, and running Arch Linux with Kernel 6.8.9-arch1-2.
Definitely upgrade to firmware 0.3.5 to confirm whether the issue still persists after the known bug is fixed. (Framework laptops do have a history of spotty compatibility with usb-c docks, which is what that is … there are some other threads about that.)

. Went very smoothly, but it did not seem to fix the issue with the Apple USB-C adapter. I noticed that the power consumption in the Energy app is <10W, but on charger directly it’s 30-45W. I will note that on all ThinkPads I’ve tried this adapter with, it works fine. I’ve also tried several different adapters, and the issue is consistent across all of them.
