Micro USB/Charging Port...

Is it possible to use the charging port on the side of my Q10 as an extra data port? Can I use a micro usb drive as an external media storage device and access it through the port when I insert the stick, or is it just a charging port?

I highly recommend every Playbook owner have a rapid charger. It is far superior to the USB charger and prevents the problem you have already encountered. Alternatively, I prefer the charging dock. It uses the same charging port as the rapid charger. I just bought one a few days ago for $13. Here is a link:
http://www.amazon.com/Blackberry-Rapid-Charging-Stand-Playbook/dp/B004XDTXZI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=...
It comes with everything you need to charge it. Both chargers do the same thing. I just prefer the dock.

  • Can I use Micro-USB Charger for Nokia C5?

    I am planning to buy Nokia C5.
    According to http://europe.nokia.com/find-products/accessories/all-accessories/power/chargers/nokia-micro-usb-cha... it says that Nokia Micro-USB Charger AC-6 is compatible for Nokia C5, is that true?
    Because I thought Nokia C5 uses the AC-8 charger.

    Yes, C5-00 supports charging via its Micro-USB port, this one should work with it.

  • Mac Book Pro Power Adapter with USB charge ports?

    Does anyone make a MBP power adapter with 2 USB charge ports? It seems logical to have one power adapter that charge your MBP, iPhone and iPad all at the same time while minimizing the things one would have to carry on travel.

    Hopefully!
    I said to them "you dont even need to put the ports on the brick itself, put it on that little wall plug adapter thingy... that way if you only want to charge your iOS devices you can leave the brick in the bag!... Fingers crossed and thanks again for the help tjk!
    Best,

  • Will You Repair My Cricket Usb Charging Port?

    Alright, here's the gist of it all. My ZTE X500 by Cricket's usb charger port is BROKEN. I have a very difficult time trying to charge my phone, if it'll even try! It's broken at no fault of my own, and I need it fixed ASAP. Should I try to buy a universal charging pad, or can you guys fix it? If you can fix it, how much would that cost and how long would it take? My Cricket is barely a month old. Please HELP! Thanks!

    Bring it to the store to see your options. If they deem the port problem not due to accidental damage, the store might be able to exchange it under manufacturer warranty.

  • Curve 8330 usb/charging port issues.

    My 8330 just started to have problems with its usb/charge port. I plugged it in last night before bed like I always do, but when I woke up it hadn't charged a bit and wasn't even recognizing that it had been plugged in. I tried my USB data cable as well, and that didn't register either unless I wiggled the cord around and held it still once it did register. I eventually did get the phone to register that I had plugged it in, but I had to wiggle the cord just so and leave the charger half-way plugged in once I found the sweet spot.
    It is a few years old and pre-owned, but this problem literally just cropped up. I haven't dropped it recently, and I only plug it in once a day. It has no problem holding a charge, but getting it to register the cord is a battle. Do I need to just replace it or is there a way to fix this? There are no other problems, just the port acting up. Thanks!

    You can try contacting Sprint for repair options for your device.

  • Micro-USB charger AC-50E makes squeeks when chargi...

    Hi,
    I have a micro-USB charger AC-50E that cam with my Lumia 800, it charges but the squeeking sound it makes while charging is driving me crazy. When I unplug my phone the squeeking stops.
    Is this a known problem, is this a malfunction? I still have warrantee can I replace it with another charger?
    best regards,
    unclebenz

    I presume your charger is emitting a high pitch whine. Only time I've ever experienced this mytself was when I used a charger on a socket with a dimmer switch. It seems transformers can whine when the input voltage is not right. However, it could also indicate a fault with the charger itself. I suggest trying the charger on other wall sockets in your own house or at work, friends house etc. If it only whines in  a particular socket or in your house then you might want to get your wiring checked out. On the other hand, if it whines everywhere then you might want to get it checked out before your warranty runs out.   

  • Micro USB charging current

    Hi I have a Nokia E52, which has micro USB charger, I just got an HP TouchPad which also has micro USB charger, but TouchPad charger is rated at 2A output, my Nokia AC-10X is rated at 1200mA output.
    Is it safe to plug my E52 into the TouchPad charger?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    If I understand correctly, you're looking to carry just one AC charger instead of two?  The amperage (current) isn't what's important, but the voltage.  My E73 charger is rated at 5V and 1200 mA, and may be the same as yours.  If your HP charger also puts out 5V, then it can't do any harm.  Your E52 will draw just the 1200 mA it needs and no more.  (You can confirm this if you've ever seen a universal charger.  These offer a switchable voltage setting, but never a switchable amperage.  They would have sufficient amperage output for most small electronics, and again, the device draws only what it needs.)
    But the above doesn't mean it will work with your E52.  Dell laptop chargers, for example, include a custom chip that has yet to be duplicated by makers of universal laptop chargers.  This prevents third party chargers from charging Dell laptop batteries...and is one of the reasons I recommend that people don't buy from Dell.   So screwy things can still happen.
    But I see no harm in trying.  Good luck!

    Not all variants.
    Agree.  The two Asha bought in Australia do not charge using USB via computer or car cigarette lighter.

  • Zen Micro USB Charger quest

    I have a Zen Micro 6gb. I also have a Belkin travel kit that I bought for my Sony PDA. The kit comes with a cable that connects to the PDA on one end and the USB on the other. It also came with a auto and home adapter. The adapters have a USB port so that the USB end of the cable plugs into the adapter and it becomes a charger.
    My question is does anyone think this may work for my ZM. If I plug the USB cable from the ZM into the auto or home adapter, would it charge the ZM without damaging it.
    As info the specs on the adapters are:
    Auto
    Input : 2 - 24Vdc
    Output: 5.5Vdc; 700mA
    Home
    Input: 00 - 240VAC; 0.3A
    Output: 5.5Vdc; .0A

  • Can a USB charging port be replaced?

    I have a Samsung charge. If I plug in the USB charger, the phone goes blank and freezes. This occurs even if the charger is not connected to power, so I suspect there is a loose connection or unseated port. If I remove the battery and replace, letting it reboot, with charger plugged in, it will show the battery status bar as not charging. I carry 2 extra batteries with me, checked the other 2. Sames issue, so I doubt it is the battery.

    If the phone is still under warranty, you should check into the possibility of a warranty replacement. If it's no longer under warranty, it might be worth contacting a cell phone repair shop to see if replacing the charging port is possible. If they can replace it for a reasonable cost, it could solve your problem. Of course, be sure it's a reputable shop.

  • Micro USB Charging

    I believe I read he Excite LE will charge via micro USB, albeit at a slower rate.  Can someone confirm the same is true for this new Excite?

    You can now order just the cable without the charger from Toshiba.

  • Zen Micro USB chargi

    Never have I had more difficulty finding an answer to a rather simple question...
    Can the Zen Micro charge via USB?
    I searched the knowledge base here, and found one article that was a FAQ for the Zen Micro that indicated it would answer the issue of "USB Charging" but does not do so.
    I'll ask the question here:
    Can the Zen Micro charge via USB?
    If not, Creative, then why not . . . my original Nomad charges via USB as do its successors.
    Thanks
    Artie

    Yes it does. I just left it plugged in last night after exhausting the battery and transferring music and this morning it had a full charge.

  • Combo built-in power outlet with USB charging ports...

    Are iPhones only fully functional while charging on an OEM plug?  We just installed a combination USB charger into our wall and now the touch screen will not work while it is charging?  Anyone else have this particular situation?  We are using a Legrand Pass & Seymour P/N 340982 Combination USB Charger.

    Seems the charger is the issue... I have never personally had an issue with using my device while charging via any accessory/cable/charger.

  • Melted USB charging port on 920

    I picked my phone up off the desk this morning and tried to remove the USB charging cable from the phone but it wouldn't budge. On close inspection the cable and phones plastic were both melted. Incidentally the other end of the charging cable had been removed from the charger the night before.
    the phone works but the charger cable and phone are fused together. Has anyone else seen such a case? Off to Nokia care to get them to take a look.
