I have a nice stylish apple iphone dock. It takes a straight forward apple iphone cable and then connects to my PC.What i am trying to do is also connect it to the mains, so that my dock becomes a charger dock without the need for connecting to my PC. - So from a standard USB input, i need to have it connect to BOTH my PC and power.I tried a mains powered USB dock (7 port, 3A / 5V hub) - but it doesnt work, it still only starts charging when the cable connecting the hub to my PC is connected, it doesnt use the mains going throguh the hub to charge the iphone I have an iPhone 4s (if that makes a difference). So What do I do?
My daughter dropped my wifes iphone in the bath and it will now only power up when plugged into the mains. When plugged in it cannot find the sim and according to the local apple store the wifi antenna is also broken. We are not bothered about the phone it is the 1500 photos and videos of our girls which we don't want to lose. The phone hasn't been backed up recently and she is not registered with icloud so that is out the window. So, I thought that if the phone could be powered by the mains and somehow connected to my mac at the same time I could perhaps get the photos synced.
It worth pointing out that the USB doesn't turn the phone on when connected to the mac. Is there such a cable in existence which has two usb leads from the iphone dock connector? I just cant believe that the photos and videos cannot be accessed and saved by a company that always tells us they are cutting edge and ahead of the rest of the market, especially as the phone traded in will get, repaired, wiped and sold on as a refurbed phone, if they can do that they can get us our files off.
Last week I bought a S2 and the charging from the mains has been fine. I bought another S2 for my wife, and she put this on charge in the bedroom but after a few seconds of putting on charge the charge stopped and it said 'Battery Disconnected'. Tried with my charge which was plugged in and worked OK with mine and it said the same. Tried the charger in a different plug socket in another room and the phone didn't show the message and charged ok overnight. My phone charges OK from the bedroom, but the other doesn't, but it charges ok elsewhere so it can't be any issue with the plug sockets.
My iPhone 4 has today decided not to charge from either mains or USB. When plugged in it starts to but then comes up saying that charging is not supported with this accessory even when it is plugged directly into the mains. It was a little damp the other day after my daughter left it out in the rain without me realizing, it went into the airing cupboard for the day and then charged fine when i got it after work, but today it just wont charge?
I have had a 9860 Torch for 15 months with Orange now, with no problems to mention. The phone however started to play up, the battery seem to run dry very quickly and I had to put it on charge daily without having used the phone much, ie no bluetooth, not surfing the net etc. Then the phone started to go off when I took it off charge. The screen would go black and only the butons at the bottom would be alight. Nothing would happen if I pressed any of the buttons, and I am not able to restart the phone. I then have to put it on charge again, take the battery out and re-insert it, and it will start up again as long as it is connected to the mains. The battery indicator shows the battery is fully charged, I did however buy a new battery and downloaded the latest update just before Christmas, which seemed to solve the problem for a few days, however the phone has now reverted to the same problem. The phone works perfectly well when connected to the mains, but the screen goes black as soon as it is disconnected, and will only start up again if connected back up to the mains and battery taken out and re-inserted.
Just recently my Defy refuses to recharge using the mains socket charger connected to the usb cable.It charges perfectly well through the computer and also through my car socket..........what am I missing?
I have a ridiculous problem with my phone Z2. When i plugged my phone with my PC at first its working and Sony PC Companion can read it after that i connect it with otp and made safely remove. After that moment my pc did not see my Xperia Z2 ...
I am the proud owner of a new E52. I love the phone and the battery life is superb and I'd like to keep it that way. While I'm at work I use the data cable normally to connect the phone to pc suite and I use pc suite to respond to sms etc. However I notice the E52 also charges on usb. I love this feature but I wanted to ask will this decrease the battery life or shorten its life span. I would like sure answers if possible and not just hunches as I really dont want to damage the battery.
SInce the latest update 12070, if my phone is plugged into the mains charging when the power / wake up button is pressed, the touch screen is notally non responsive, and you cannot use the phone. If however, you reove the mains lead BEFORE pressing the power/wakeup button, everything works fine.Rolled back to previous update, everything worked fine - mains power or not, put the update back on, and the problem returned!
My blackberry bold9700 wasworking great last night. This morning i woke up, and the internet no longer works. I did not even turn off my phone last night . I gave it a charge and the net stopped working.

it won't stay in the charging case, I can see the light go off after a few minutes and hear it turn on and announce that it's connected or trying to connect (if my phone is paired to my desk headset that is).
I have an Iphone 4s that was purchased a few months ago. The charging cable all of a sudden would not charge my phone and I noticed there is a burn mark on the inside of the plug that goes into my phone. Is this cable covered under applecare plus warranty and should I be worried there is a problem with my phone?
When I plug my iphone 4 into the usb port it will show that its charging, but all by itself it will all of a sudden be not charging within a minute. anyone else having this problem?

I have both the DT-900 wireless charging plate and the DT-901 wireless charging stand. They both have a charge light that stays on when charging and goes off when charging is complete. I've notice that with the Icon the light never goes out when the phone is fully charged. When I charge my 822 the light goes out when it's fully charged.
I plugged my bb into the wall and for a little bit it was charging fine but then the symbol disappeared. I unplugged and plugged back in which made the clock pop up so I know it connected right. But its still not charging. I turned the charging indicator led on with berrybuzz and the light didn't turn on when I plugged it in.
Meterberry says the temp is 111 degrees. I don't know what the 'normal' ranges are. I'm still under my 30day warranty so do I take it back? Is anyone else having this problem? Its done this before and it eventually charges but something is going on....
Help! I bought a BlackBerry Charging Pod for my 9700, the packaging that came with it says it is for a Tour 9630.
I plugged it in and the power light on the pod lit up but there is no indication on the 9700 that says it is charging when placed in pod and I set the clock to display when charging and that doesn't work when placed in the pod!I bought it from a place called OEM in Brooklyn.
The one I played with in the store yesterday didn't have prongs for a pod. Anyone else bummed that the Torch doesn't have charging prongs on it for use in a pod?
I took a 21 hr trip w/ no recharge. Battery completely drained. Since then...

Having issues with their Nexus 5 not charging, or at the very least charging super slowly?
Mine has been plugged in for about 3 hours and only charged up about 10%. Could it be a teething issue (it's the first charge out of the box) or something worth contacting Google about?
I just updated last week to Gingerbread but this was happening before that. I plug my phone into my factory charger and when I go to unplug it it says it is still charging. Dosent go away until I reboot the phone, any ideas? When it is fully charged the green led even stays lit. Dosent do it all the time just enough to be annoying. I really dont want to trade my phone for a reconditioned one since it is only three weeks old.
the red charging light that comes on when charging phone has now started to stay on even when not charging and the phone heats up when using it and battery seems to be draining fast im to scared to charge phone up incase i fry it.
When I tried to connect to magnetic charging dock the Led and the charging symbol starts blinking continuously without getting charged, while it used to be perfect previously, and usb charging is perfectly fine , i even tried with multiple chargers.
