USB - Charge only

Is it the posibility to have an option when connected the phone to PC / laptop via a USB cable for the option "Charge only" as the HTC phones had?

Most of us charge our phones at work using the PC / laptop USB ports and while it is the corporate network I feel somewhat uncomfortable on my data are exposed to Admins who have a remote access to computers of the company...

You could try to buy one of these USB cables with magnetic connector that fits on the two power pins exposed on the left side of the body of the Z3.   Simply plug the USB connector into a USB port available on your laptop or use USB charger provided with your phone.  I like this approach to charging because it eliminates having to open the cover to access the mini USB port on the phone.

I hope you find this useful suggestion.

See you soon,.

    I just bought Aspire E5 - 474G laptop. It is said in the brochure that she has turned off of the features of USB charging port, but she did not mention which took port support the feature.

    installation of El Capitan in a mac by usb, but only using windows to create the USB

    I'm having a problem to install el capitan on a mac book pro 2009 has changed (dead) to an ssd HARD drive

    I can't find that any information how to do this from a windows machine (now only available) of the old system had the lion as I was told and when trying to install lion line or wireless it says it isn't available now so the machine is stuck without an operating system.

    If you are anywhere near an Apple Store, I would suggest bringing your MBP to and asking to help. For USB, you need to partition and format to allow to boot on a Mac, what Windows can not do. Then either create a bootable installer or install OS X on USB and then copy the installer it, boot from it and run the installer with the SSD as a target.

  • Satellite U - charges only 45% battery, so how can I fix?

    For the last year, my battery charged very well, about a month ago my battery suddenly charged only at 45%, which means that life is very short.

    Does anyone know why this might be and how I can fix this problem?

    Hello

    Can you also tell us what phone do you have?

    As Akuma written perhaps the battery must be replaced. They can only be recharged about 500 times so I think that you have reached it.

    You can get a new battery to an authorized service provider. On the Toshiba site is a list of people. You can contact the guy and ask for a new.

  • Port Replicator III + very high CPU when you move the usb mouse only in W2k

    Tecra M2 with a port replicator III +.

    It is set to dual boot XP and Windows 2000 (yes I know it is well a bit but I have a bunch of stuff installed in win2k it is difficult to find these days).

    XP is very good at 100%, but with win 2000 if I use my * USB mouse * on the * ports port replicator and waggle the mouse around - the * CPU * jumps from 0 to * 70 + % * use (System process that seems indicatates like IRQ problem). If I plug the mouse into the ports of the laptop (when the laptop is connected) - it's fine, no more than 5% cpu usage. It's a microsoft basic mouse. I really believe that this is a problem of usb any, because the cpu jumps a little if I type quickly on my usb keyboard (only a few %). It comes with the usb ports on all the Replicator.

    Any ideas? I don't really want to plug my mouse in the morning because it beats a little interest to have a docking station in the first place! I have installed mobile extensions. All other aspects of the replicator are fine

    Martin

    Huh it will not be easy to find the right explanation for this.
    At the moment when Tecra M2 has been offered on the market as Replicator port compatible Toshiba offered Toshiba Advanced Port Replicator III (no +) and at that time both supported in operating system has been tested with it.

    Toshiba later designed Toshiba Advanced Port Replicator III + and confirmed the compatibility with Tecra M2, but obviously with more recent WXP (at this time).
    So now, you've been following situation: you use most recent Replicator port, but with much older operating system so I assume that there may be a compatibility issue with W2K.

    I can't imagine use you so often with W2K and if so, may not be so problematic to connect the mouse directly on the cell s USB port.

    Sorry, but I don't think that there is nothing you can do about it.

  • USB charging question

    New Fuze owner here. Love it so far.

    Question: Is it possible to NOT have the "rocket" USB charge when connected to the computer.

    Situation: I have completely loaded the "rocket" with a wall adapter. I listened to the radio for some time function, using about 2% of the battery. I plugged the USB to the computer and the rocket once I was ready to transfer songs. Of course, with the USB, the "rocket" begins to load when connected to the computer. I'd rather not "rocket" load it again since it is essentially charged already.

    So is it possible to disable the function of the load, even if I have the "rocket" connected to the computer?

    Or is it really important?

    Sorry if this has been resolved before. I did a search and didn't come with a similar topic. Thanks for any help

    No, it is not serious and will not damage the "rocket".

    Like the Beatles famous song say, just "Let It Be."

  • USB charging

    Hello

    I just bought HP stream 7 Tablet.   IAM able to charge the Tablet via usb power cable but I am not able to load via cable sb via laptop. Could you please check and let me know if this is expected behaviour or problem?

    Yes, a USB port provides only about 1 amp, which is sufficient to display the indicator of State of charge on the screen of the Stream for about 6 to 8 seconds when plugged in for the first time, (The Stream must be turned off before it appears).  The USB port does not provide enough power to show that the Tablet is supported in Windows.  It will always load it slowly however, and you'll see the percentage of battery charge increase slowly if there is not much to be able to consume the output of the activity on the tablet.  The adapter provides about 2 amps simply specify the Tablet is supported in Windows and it will load faster.

  • USB charger - 29W C - compatibility with 12.9 "iPad Pro

    I'm looking for an answer as to if the USB - C 29W charger is compatible with the iPad to 12.9 "Pro. I know this question has been asked and answered by the communities in the past, but when I went to the Apple Store to buy the charger today, the staff told me that the charger could damage my battery over time. I then started a support chat session to confirm the answer and the representative said (and I quote) "If 2 people advised me not to do something, I would not even waste my time." We could care less if you want to damage your unit. »

    First of all, I never got a rude responses to Apple, so it was a surprise. Secondly, I really just trying to get an answer to the question. Can anyone (especially Apple) help out me? Thank you!

    If it is not in the specs of the iPad, you're crazy to use it. The Chargers are cheap, the iPad is not.

  • Satellite Pro U400-11V - charges only battery when the computer is turned off

    Following a reformatting my hard drive of the computer, my laptop recognizes only the AC/DC power adapter when it is turned off. When the computer is turned on, it does not recognize the AC adapter.

    Changed the power supply ac and it made no difference.

    Have also tried an update of the BIOS (3.0), I am running Windows Vista 32 bit.

    Hello

    I doubt it has something to do with the software or the operating system. In my opinion, that this looks like a hardware problem, because the battery will be always charged if AC/DC adapter is plugged in. That's why it of not necessary to enable this setting in the configuration of the software.

    If your BIOS is already updated, contact an authorized service provider. Technicians can check your laptop and maybe the motherboard needs to be replaced.

  • HP Pavilion Notebook 15-p119: USB charge, but does not sync devices

    Dear folk to HP support,

    I have a situation very similar to the mentioned in this thread, the only difference is my OS: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Software-and-How-To-Questions/VGA-and-USB-Driver-Not-Working/m-...

    With any device (iPad, Samsung Galaxy, FIIO x 1), if I plug it into my laptop the device starts to load, but is not synchronized and I can't access or transfer data between the laptop and the device.

    I tried to disable the drivers and their reset. I tried to reset hard devices. None of these help.

    This laptop came with pre-installed Windows 8.1. I have it wiped and now have a manually installed Windows 10 (64-bit). I have difficulties to find specific drivers. I used the HP support assistant and he tells me that everything is up to date. Windows tells me as the drivers are up to date, but I wonder if the drivers are generic and not specific to this laptop.

    Where I find a better driver? Or are there other solutions?

    Thanks in advance.

  • WANT 750se: USB charging port

    I have a HP 750-100se ENVY. The Office has 4 ports USB at the back and 4 top / front, a total of 4 ports USB 3.0 divided 50-50. USB 3.0, two albums identified by an SS has a Flash to identify it. It is my understanding that the "BOLD" lightning USB port can also serve as a fast charger for my mobile phone. I have a Samsung Galaxy S6, has the ability to use a fast charger. I used both the cable that came with my phone, and the other bought separately from Verizon, both are fast charge cables. Nor can charge my phone to anywhere near a normal cable, my phone says a full charge of 30% would take more than 4 hours.

    Is their no way to "activate" the bolt of lightning port USB is able to load quickly?

    BlueHawk172, welcome to the forum.

    All the information I found on the USB port with a bolt of lightning indicates that it can be used while the computer is turned off.  However, I have not found any information indicating it is a fast charge port.  It seems to load at normal speed.

  • Can we use Satellite A200 - 1 GB DC charger only?

    Hello

    Any body can help me?

    I want to know if I can run my laptop A200-1 GB by continuous tension given by charger always.
    I mean he must unplug the charger once the battery is completely charged with leaving plugged?

    In my user manual, it is not mentioned. But when I download a manual of Toshiba web, it is said disconnect after full load. Other wise battery gets spoiled.

    Cannot therefore t we use portable using DC even completely?
    Which will reduce my battery life?
    Can any body give an idea?

    Hello

    Last days I followed your job offers and looks like you manage your A200 with care. It is very good. I'm really surprised that you read the user manuals document s because a lot of people post about things described in manuals.

    Back to your question: of course, you can use your laptop connected to the power supply current only. All desktop computers or laptops placed in offices are connected to the permanent power supply and person, but really nobody, switch the power ON or OFF.

    Of course, it is good and useful if you can work from time to time on battery only, but battery technology is today all right, you don't need to do.

    Believe me, I have older computer Tecra laptop at the office and it works on mains only almost 5 years and I still have the original battery.

    Please don't worry about the battery. If you work with your laptop at home or in the office and you need also for certain complex operations it is best used with AC power, and also with the PERFORMANCE profile in power management. In this case, you will be able to use the whole performance of the CPU.

    Bye and good luck!
