Hello all,
Just got a USB/power cradle on eBay for my Diamond only to find that it works great on my XP home PC, but can not find the drivers to connect on my "archaic" W2000 company/work PC. Has anyone else had this silly issue with W2000 and a standard USB charge cradle bought through eBay?? Can't be seen by Activesync or data drive mode after initial connection failure to find driver!!
Diamond connects and syncs fine with just the cable (Activesybc & data drive mode)
BTW: this is definately a USB driver issue, not Activesync or other.....
Thanks in advance
Just a funny idea and just thought I would share
I would like to get a keyboard and a mouse connect to my Galaxy S and use it instead of my desktop PC just as an experiment.
So my first question is what keyboard and Mouse work?
I'm guess they would need to be a bluetooth or could I get away with a usb hub?
regards,
jippie
Logitech wireless Mouse MX620
Logitech wireless Keyboard Pro 2800
Both work perfectly using the usb lead that comes with the cell phone and the dongle that comes with the mouse and keyboard.
Been doing some extensive searching looking for docks for my s4. Just looking for some user input.
What I'm looking for a dock that is powered by an AC Adapter but that can connect to computer at the same time. I'm not even sure if that's possible...but connecting directly to the PC is an excruciatingly slow charge and sometimes it'll discharge but at the same time I keep my phone synced to my computer for Outlook etc.
Again, if it's possible I'm looking for a dock that will charge through AC power, and sync to a PC at the same time.
Is there a way to charge an android device while it is connected to the PC?
Assume the device is draining its battery very fast due to some video or gaming activity and the PC cannot keep battery level stable. I would like to connect it to a USB charger at the same time, does such an adapter exists? I am afraid of damaging the PC or the tablet.
It is important to note that I don't need the android to work in hosting mode (OTG) but just for file transfer and adb port forwarding.
My Samsung S9 has had some screen damage and the touchscreen mostly does not work.
In order to navigate it I must use a mouse that I connect to the phone using the supplied USB C- A adapter.
I wish to get my phone repaired but I wish to backup all the data upon it first.
If I plug my phone directly into my PC, it asks for my permission to allow the PC access. However, since the touchscreen does not work properly, I cannot press the button to accept.
I could not plug both the mouse and PC simultaneously.
So I bought a USB-C hub. (Actually I've bought several, none of them have worked, this latest one is the most expensive and I had hoped it would work - (https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07ZVKTP53/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1).
It has a separate port for USB-C Power Delivery and a separate one for data.
I plug the attached USB-C cable from the hub into my phone, and then I plug my mouse into a regular USB port, my charger into the USB-C PD port, and another USB-C to A cable from the USB-C Data port on the hub into a USB port at the back of my (new) PC.
Now my computer does not recognise my phone at all, nor does my phone seem to acknowledge it is connected to a PC. The mouse still works upon the phone and it charges fine through the PD port. If I plug the phone straight into the PC, it is recognised, so I do not think the problem lies there. The hub seems to block communication between the phone and PC.
I would like to backup my data and get my phone repaired. If anyone can solve the USB-C Hub issue or propose another solution to my problem then I would be grateful.
A mouse and keyboard will take priority over anything else in a hub.
I'm betting the hub's power is 2000mA or 2.0 Amps.
What does your fone charger state its power is? Add the mouse, keyboard, and fone's milliamps together. If it's more than the hub's power pack supplies....
In this situation, I would use Vysor, this will defo solve your problem, it allows you work with your fone on your pc/lappy by providing a lovely window that is a duplicate of your fone screen, you'll be glad you found this!!!
I can provide an old cracked version I used for my emergencies, if there is no objections?
Then you'll only need the mouse to use as your finger
Google Vysor. case closed lol.

Hi
Thanks for your reply
It's not a battery hub, but just a USB-C hub (check the link). Power comes from the PD USB-C port which is hooked up to my phone's original USB-C charger.
It also fails to work even when a mouse isn't attached to it.
I will look into Vysor. Also thought about the possibility of using a standalone bluetooth mouse which would free up the cable.
Your fone will suck the life out of a poorly powered hub, by using vysor, your pc/lappy mouse will work your fone using vysor, best app I've ever seen for working with broken screens, just plug phone direct into lappy, vysor works if you've no screen at all!!!!!
Use
Vysor

Dont pay for mouses/hubs in this scenario. Just pay for a top quality tool. I would place this as my number one android tool for ANY fone.
Again, if all your doing is data recovery (saving your stuff) I have a patch for an earlier version to unlock full version I swear by, you could use this once if only to try before you buy
The hub supports 85W fast charging directly from mains, which is what it is getting.
How do I enable USB debugging specifically for the app?
I have enabled it in developer options but when I connect my phone via USB to my computer as per the Vysor app, another window pops up on my phone asking to allow USB debugging. Ask there is no mouse attached to the phone at this point, I am unable to allow it.
