Guest pndragon Posted January 5, 2006 Report Posted January 5, 2006 Hi there, I'm fairly new to this forum and to the SP world, so please bear with me for a possible noob question. I have an Audiovox SMT 5600 and love the syncronization ability it has. So much so that the only times the phone is NOT connected to a pc is usually on my trips back and forth from work. I am allways by a computer (because of my job) - hence my need for a smartphone for those momments when I'm not. So my question is this, does the battery life get severely affected if I plug the phone into the USB cable frequently and don't let the battery get nearly drained before I do so? My phone gets charged via a USB cable or a AC adapter, but because I am almost allways around a computer - its allways being plugged in and out of the USB cable and I don't know how that affects the battery life since the battery level rarely ever gets below 60%. Any thoughts?
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted January 5, 2006 Report Posted January 5, 2006 It's best to keep the battery topped up. As long as you are not unplugging it thenn plugging it in all the time you will be ok ;)
Guest Amun.hidden1 Posted January 5, 2006 Report Posted January 5, 2006 does anyone know a way to disable from charging while in synch ?
Guest mini_man Posted January 5, 2006 Report Posted January 5, 2006 apparently there is a wire inside your usb cable that is the power supply, so technichly cutting this wire will only allow usb transfer, or just use bt
Guest Amun.hidden1 Posted January 6, 2006 Report Posted January 6, 2006 @ mini_man: indeed... i do not know tough wich is that wire ? i was hoping for a software solution...cutting the wire seems a bit harsh
Guest gpcarreon (MVP) Posted January 6, 2006 Report Posted January 6, 2006 does anyone know a way to disable from charging while in synch ? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You need to modify the sync cable. The images on the link below will show you. It is in Tagalog (Philippine dialect) right now. I will be posting English texts soon... http://www.gpcarreon.com/?p=197&page=4
Guest Amun.hidden1 Posted January 6, 2006 Report Posted January 6, 2006 pleeeease english version !! :drool:
Guest thefishdude Posted January 7, 2006 Report Posted January 7, 2006 not actually familiar to your device as i am new to all this also but if it has bluetooth you could synch to your pc with bluetooth and therefore wouldnt be charging all time. if you device does not have blue tooth then please ignore everyhing i have just said lol ;)
