Is there a way to charge the note 10.1 while using the usb connector? I would like to use a usb flash drive and charging the same time.

I don't think that is possible, still you can try a usb multiplier with separate power and see . I know that it can support multiple usb flash drivers connected same time but i'm not sure if it will charge
And be careful, you could end up frying your tab... I was using a powered HDD and something went wrong. Long story short, Dead tab and dead HDD...:crying:
So I went out and got the 32gb 3G version...
i connect my tablet yesterday to my PC and left it 32% then i slept after like 8 hours sleeping i waked up and find that my tablet 100%
The tablet will trickle charge when connected to usb. It's mainly that it takes a whole heap longer to charge...

Hi, You don't have the box ticked in the battery screen do you ?
the one that says
When device is turned on, do not charge the battery when connected to the PC
this should be unticked.

Hi Dean
Now I dont have it ticked !!
Any other idea's?
The problem could also be your usb line or usb port. try some alternatives first.
Tried everything, different usb leads, different sockets even different laptops !!

Same problem here. But i changed the USB cable and problem solved. Did u tried it, with the official USB cable from HTC? (I guess so, just to check)
Yep I did !!
Will try again when I get home though..
Thats strange... my TP came with UK power adapter, so I couldnt use AC power until I get an adapter (4 days)... in these days I always charged via USB (all night long)
Well I tried the official usb lead and it charged last night, Im now using the official lead again using same laptop and same usb port and guess what !!! It wont charge again

Hi,
this is sounding kinda weird..
What kind of wall charger came with the phone, mine is a wall adapter that i plug the USB lead into to charge the phone
So i know my USB lead works as this charges the phone with both the adapter and via USB on any PC ( i have tried home and work PC's)
Sounds like it could be a handset issue then ???
mine is a Vodafone handset that i bought unlocked and flashed with a different ROM and its working fine..

Laptops can be a bit funny about USB charging, I remember one laptop I had wouldn't charge my phone (SE K800i at the time), unless it was on mains power. The laptop had to be powered up while on the mains, with no USB devices plugged in, then it would supply power to the ports.
My work laptop is also a bit funny about it, I had to disable powering down of the USB ports otherwise it won't power them back up, but since if nothing is connected there's not much of a problem. There is also the possibility it's powering the port, which will charge the phone, but not enough power to actually make it worthwhile, you can check to see how much power is going to the ports by looking under device manager. So you might want to check it's not a problem with your laptop.

This is exactly what mine turned out to be. At work I've got a Dell Optiplex 745 tower and none of the USB ports put out enough power to charge my phone and have the phone on. I've got wifi turned off but the data, EDGE, is always on. If the display is on and I'm in Storage mode there's very little charging going on. It doesn't drain quickly but it definitely isn't going up. If I'm in sync mode it drains pretty quickly and it seems as tho it's not even charging at all.
What I do now is plug it in at work and turn off the display. Kinda sucks but I need my phone fully charged at all times.
I have the same problem....
the usb and the factory usb are different if u have looked carefully
firstable, the shape of the heads are different. secondly, there are 4 pins inside usb and 6 pins inside the factory usb...I guess that's the problem.
Try messing with the USB to PC settings. I know my TP was acting funny and not charging, and after i disabled network functionality, i think it started charging. GL.
Thamks for all the replys, if done everytjhing sometimes it will charge sometimes it wont, I have it connected to my laptop all day for internet sharing, it has charged up very slowly twive, and not at all 8 or 9 times, same usb slot , laptop plugged into mains, official usb lead used ( it never charges from another usb lead )
This is the 3rd htc Ive owned and the first to play up like this over usb !!

Have you tried it plugged into a desktop computer? It would rule out the laptop being the problem if it didn't work. You could also use a mini-usb cable, which could also prove if the official cable is a problem.
Having similar problem...
I'm having a similar problem. My laptop used to charge Touch Pro when i connect it. Now for reason i noticed that it doesn't anymore.
I could be wrong, but I thought I read in the manual that when the phone is synched to a PC, it only charges in trickle mode, so it doesn't recharge the battery efficiently. Is this the problem?
same problem here. Mine was working fine with ANY charger whether it be USB, car charger or wall charger. But now it will only charge with the htc plug but not the HTC wall charger. The plug is the one with the ports for tv-out, headphones.
I'm going to go try and do a hard reset.I dont understand what could cause this.
I just noticed something with my phone. When I am charging my phone it takes a really long long longggggg time to charge. Usually more than 8 hours. I kept tracking the charge and usually it remains on 99% forever. Sometimes if I get a call, or open the phone to check how much battery life was charged or just anything that makes the phone active a minute later its finished the charge. I think my charging is messed up and my phone will remain on 99% unless I make it active so it registers it as complete charge. Is there a setting or something that I am missing?
bump .
Is 99%-100% a big issue? The 8 hour charge sounds too long, but is that from the mains charger or from a usb charge?
Does the phone actually charge correctly & just not show the battery status properly? (charge it on the mains for 2 hours, then use the phone - if it lasts the day then its probably just the indication playing about).
Were you charging from the main USB port on your computer OR via the USB hub. there is a huge difference.
If you were charging through the USB port from your computer, you would be getting power exclusively for the phone
if you were charging through the USB hub, then your phone is fighting for power with other devices so therefore less power going to charge it.
your other choice is get yourself a cradle so you can mainline from a power outlet and also from the computer directly.
Goodluck

A self-powered (not bus-powered) USB hub would be able to deliver the same 500ma/port that the controller on the motherboard would deliver. In reality, most USB ports (both on motherboards and hubs) can deliver more than that, because there's a lot of poorly designed USB devices that'll draw more.
true. I did forget to mention self powered ports, just because I rarely have those kind of hubs. Godefroi is right. If your USB hub is powered via an adapter, then that should not be a problem, otherwise it can be either the cable or even the port itself.
Fuze - power outlet wont charge
I am getting really annoyed by this, someone please HELP!!! I have a Fuze and for some reason for the past few weeks my phone will not charge on a power outlet but it will charge on a usb and with the car charger. I have tried my dads charger same thing so i know its not my charger...
SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!
Hello,
I didn't use my tablet since 2 month and last week, i installed team EOS 4.2.2 JB rom.
After, my cable did'nt worked, When i tried to conect it to my computer, there was an error message that the tablet wasn't detect correctly.
And when i put the cable into the charger and the table to charge on the wall, i saw the icon on the right corner of the tablet charging but in the information battery, i sax that "Disconect" and the tablet % didn't grow up.... So i thought the cable was dead and i bouth one new on ebay.
With the new cable, no problem the tablet was detect and the charging with the charger was good. But after 2 days, i had new problems.
when i conect the tablet on my laptop, all is OK, the tablet is detect normally. But whn i try to charging with the charger on the wall, the tablet doesn't charge. I see the icon in the right corner is charging but in the battery informations, i see "disconect" again and the battery doesn't charge.
Yesterday, i saw a topic that i can put the charger on the freezer, i put it alle the night and i tried this morning but nothing the tablet does'nt charge.
On the charger, there is 2 parts, I open the little part with removing a screw and i tried to little move the 2 metal parts but nothing alwas the same problem.
So i think now the problem is not the new cable but the charger.... I know it's a specific voltage and if i try with my HTC ONE X charger, this will not work...
But maybe it's a problem with the tablet connect port?
I changed the rom and i installed the Cyanogen 4.2.2 this morning, and now when i conect the cable, with the computer, it's OK i see my tablet but the icon on the table isn't charging and i see "disconect in the battery information". And with the charger wall, it's the same, i have charge icon and i have disconect in the battery information
Do you think i must buy a new charger?
Sorry for my poor English my French
Try a trickle charge from the USB PC > Tablet
Plug the tablet cable into PC USB port and turn off the screen, then leave to trickle charge overnight
If you have the screen on it will not charge, so best to leave it off for a few hours to test if it is a charger problem

When you use PC USB to charge, it will not show charging on the screen, you have to leave it overnight for best test results
The freezer trick should only be used for about 20 minutes just to cool the charger down and reset the cutout
Try trickle charge overnight, if it works, its the charger
I think this is because tablet use a lot of power when in use and that is why the tablet is discharging when you use it. PC has even less powerful USB charger so the tablet will probably be recharging VERY slowly or even discharging when you use it.
You should leave tablet overnight to recharge and it is better to charge it in one piece than constantly plugging and unplugging it from PC.
Have a nice day,

You should be able to charge and use it at the same time with the actual charger plugged in, but you are correct, with the PC you can not use and charge unless you mod your USB ports for extra power
Ok i will try to conect the tablet (power off) all the night to my computer but i think it will not charge...
And if it's not work, it's not a problem with the cable because i can use the cable to transfer media PC> Tablet, so it's a problem on the tablet connector?
Hello,
My tablet was charging all the night. She was at 22% and now 38.... It's very slow!!! But now, i know that my tablet and my cable are OK and my charger is the problem.
There is a solution to repair my charger or i must buy an other?

Try this, separate charger and its pins, then take it along with the cable and put it in a zip pouch, now freeze for say 2 hrs. Take it out let it return to normal temperature and then try charging. Remember freeze them in a zip pouch (air tight)

Since some days I couldn't charge my tablet. The red led on the power button did not light when I plug in the charger. First I thought the port is completely broken but when I connect the tab to my pc I have the full access. My second thought was CM10.1, but I flashed the latest RC10.1.2. and it won't charge anyway. Besides I didn't read anything about such failure. Then I have tried with another charger but it also did not charge. Now I have only left 35% battery.
Is it possible that the micro-usb-port is broken for charging but not for connecting to the pc? It sounds a little bit strange to me. I just want to find out if it is hardware or software related.
Thanks for your help.

On my A510, I had a problem with the charger, by connecting via USB to my PC I was able to charge my tablet, something like 3% per hour XD
If it works for you too, that means that is might be your charger the problem (and not the tablet)

Obviously it is the charger. You are right. I have plugged in the tab with the charger of my Defy and 8! hours later it charged about 40%. So yes, it is the charger.
I will send back the tab because it is the same failure as it was with my A500. Now I will try the Xperia tablet Z.
Thanks anyway.

You can't. The usb ports on computers don't supply enough juice for the large battery in the tablet. However, I did some research and found this: http://www.pcworld.com/article/2024993/finally-your-laptop-can-charge-your-tablet.html
It's a dongle you can get to plug in your pc's usb port that supplies enough juice to power charge tablets. The article says it has been tested on an Ipad 3. So surely it shouldn't be a problem with an Android tablet.

You can very slowly, but only if the tab is sleeping, and it will only charge around 8% per hour. If the tab is on, the drain from the screen and cpu will most likely exceed the power of the computer's usb port, and it will slowly run down. At least that is my experience with my P5113.
