This functionality is actually very good for me. I was intending to make a system that prevents user from turning off BeagleBone Black without proper shutdown. I thought i will have to implement this in code, but since the BeagleBone Black is shutting down automatically after the main supply is down (running on the battery in that time) i dont have to do this on my own. Please correct me if I am wrong in understanding this.

I can accept that. This woul be only for non battery operation.

    And also an important thing- I cannot turn on BeagleBone Black on
    battery only now.

    Replace the resistor with a wire and just short it to ground.

        I have tested the board again and heres what I have come to:
        - Using meanwell 5V ac adapter works when the 10k resistor is
        NOT soldered to battery header. If theres resistor soldered,
        but there is no battery attached it stops working and the
        power led blinks all the time. It really seems that the power
        controller is trying to switch to the battery that is not
        there. After placing the battery everything works correct. I
        only home it wont get discharged to fast when the board is off.

            The output voltage level is different. When the DC is
            contented it is supposed to go to the DC input and go
            into charge mode for the battery. Measure the output
            voltage of the PMIC. If it is 5V, then it is DC in. If
            it is 3.7V +/- then it is running on the battery.

                Another test here would be to connect the battery
                and see if after it switches to the battery if it
                switches back to the DC input.

                    the voltage is measured on the resistor ill
                    swap it to lower value one. I hope ill get it

                    Not likely. As I said we need more boards
                    that fail and the power supply that is used
                    with them. What I have seen is that it tries
                    to switch to the battery, that is not there,
                    for whatever reason. Theory is it sees a
                    voltage drop due to the inrush limit on
                    certain power supplies. I have fixed this on
                    a few boards by connecting the TS signal hard
                    to ground using the battery pins on the board.

                    What I see when the board "does not power up"
                    is the PMIC cycling on and off. You can look
                    at the 5V output rail of the PMIC for this
                    condition.

                        I dont agree here, and this is the weird

                        great and a certified meanwell supply

                        We are working on one if we can collect
                        enough information to confirm the issue.
                        it appears to be a power supply issue
                        that creates a condition that the
                        TPS65217C does not like. If you use a
                        good power supply, the issue is not there.

                                fine, but when I connect to

                                the power LED on board is lid
                                for a second and then doesnt
