Guest AngelOfRage Posted October 6, 2004 Report Posted October 6, 2004 Ive been reading through both this thread and the other "Car charger" thread. im think there must be away of using the standard USB lead that comes with the phone to allow it to charge from any pc with a USB port without AS installed, but still be used as a data cable. im not a technical person but from what ive seen so far, when connecting the phone to a none AS pc it picks it up and starts installing the USB drivers and then gives up, (no admin rights), but if you turn the phone off and then try it, it will keep repeating this over and over, instead of trying once then stopping, like when the phone is on. is there a program that can be used to make the phone think it is using active sync, to allow it to charge?
Guest Confucious Posted October 7, 2004 Report Posted October 7, 2004 Have you read the thread where someone modified the cable to allow it to work with his car charger? Presumeably the same mod would work for a PC without ActiveSync
Guest rickwookie Posted October 7, 2004 Report Posted October 7, 2004 That is quite an interesting point. I can't see that the charger has any USB logic in it- the cost would be prohibitive. I wonder what it does. I'll investigate with my scope when i get home on friday. Please don't wate your time, I've already solved this. See my posts here: http://www.modaco.com/viewtopic.php?t=1150...er=asc&start=21 There is also a third thread concerning charging here http://www.modaco.com/viewtopic.php?t=115599 so can we make this info sticky something?
