good work! but i’m curious why iphone can’t be charged while the PC is in standby or off (i.e. acpi S3/S4/S5). i know apple had notified users do not charge iphone while the PC is in standby or off since the battery may drain. but currently most PC’s usb ports supports 5V standby, i just can’t realize why i can’t charge iphone in acpi S3/S4/S5. at least it doesn’t need to have my PC powered on just for charging the phone. any comments?

Hi Matt,

could you add support for the remaining iPod devices? According to today’s version of lsusb database, their product number are the following:

1201 3G iPod
1202 iPod 2G
1203 iPod 4.Gen Grayscale 40G
1204 iPod [Photo]
1205 iPod Mini 1.Gen/2.Gen
1206 iPod ‘06′
1207 iPod ‘07′
1208 iPod ‘08′
1209 iPod Video
120a iPod Nano
1260 iPod Nano 2.Gen
1261 iPod Classic
1290 iPhone
1291 iPod Touch 1.Gen
1292 iPhone 3G
1300 iPod Shuffle
1301 iPod Shuffle 2.Gen

Is there any chance to see the module officially merged into the kernel?

Ciao,

Stefano
