Hey guys,
I have a problem with my dock, it doesn't reacts any more. Knows somebody if there is a resetbutton or something like that
Thanks a lot
Well sometimes, due to the connection problems, the dock won't react here either so I have to disconnect tablet from the dock and connect it again.
I think you probably tried that.
Does it charge the tablet when dock is connected to the mains?

I have tried this a few times, but it doesn't helps
The dock charges, but not the tablet when it is connected with the dock....
Thanks for your help

I'm having an issue,and seems not just me,that I can't charge the Tab via usb connected on a laptop or a Mac book (pro).
I'm wondering if its firmware related, I've tried JID and JI6 same issue.
Are you guys having the same?
If someone is not having this problem can please be so nice to tell me the firmware version?
Thanks
no, you cannot charge the tab from a PC usb slot cause of some minimum power requirements which was the same way with ipad

No is not the same than ipad, ipad is possible to recharge with new macs (that what apple says on the web site, the don't say how new though). But is true the iPad has 2A battery versus the Galaxy Tab that has 4000mAh, I was hoping that there was a way to recharge it (slowly but at least to keep it alive when is connect)

Mine is the same guys... I left my AC charger at work over the weekend and have been charging it via USB the whole time... Slow but it gets there if you leave it on over night!
Mine won't charge unless I use the power adapter from Samsung
Mine does charge but slowly from USB.... you should also know that different PC boards and laptops have different power outputs.... in most cases, your tab should charge very slowly on USB power. Mine charges and has BT and Wifi on also... but with heavy use and plugged in to my laptop, it may offset and drain ever so slightly....
Same thing goes for car chargers... if not rated for higher output, it will charge VERY slowly. The original Samsung car charger has a much higher power output. If you can find one that has the same aftermarket USB car adaptor for Ipad charging, that should work too

The contacts on mine are upside down compared to an iPad/iPod/iPhone charger. The blade on which the contacts sit is also higher in the charger slot than an iPad charger. How did you get it to fit without breaking something?
Some PC:s (motherboards) have so weak power output via USB, that they just barely provide a mouse and a keyboard but nothing more.
So anyone should not expect it to be enough for charging Tab.
Tab's own power supply gives 2 Amps out!
My experience about car-usb-adapters: one can charge Tab, other quite similar for some reason not. However, both charge Galxy S fine.
Just something to keep in mind as an option... Usb 3.0 will give more juice to usb cables than current usb ports. Apple has "cheated" and already increased the power to the regular usb ports on their newer laptops on par/better with usb 3.. So... If you get usb 3 cards installed you'll have a port with enough amps to charge the tab. Easier/cheaper to just buy a pdmi cable but if you are about to upgrade to usb 3 its more incentive to do so.

Regarding the ipad charging you can use the below link to to download an ASUS program that will boost the USB power for Windows this works for the ipad and it's showing as charging when connected to my PC this may also work for galaxy tab

Charging using usb on my mbp does take a long time. I timed it and it took at least 6 hours to charge from completely empty to full. Its ok since I plug it in when I'm about to go asleep and by the time I'm up its fully charged.

Careful with that.
Seems it has the not-uncommon tendency to screw up USB drivers to the point that mice and keyboards won't work either, especially on Win7 and Vista X64 machines. It got me, had to do a system restore to fix it. Neat idea though.

USB port should give at least 500mA. But anything more is OK. So Apple can make their USB ports to give anything over 500mA and it is well within the standard. Actually it is good for everyone because if Apple port can give 2A you can use non powered hubs and have power for lots of USB devices.
Actually the Tab charges fine (albeit slowly) from a USB, you just have to be aware of a few things. Firstly as mentioned above some USB ports provide more power than others. Try the different ports on your machine and you'll soon figure out which ones work best. Secondly, while the Tab will display the "Connect your charger" message, it is actually charging. Go into Settings, About Phone, Status and watch the battery level. It'll take a while but will creep up. Finally, it charges faster when the Tab is switched off. ie: if you're actually using it, you won't get a charge, if you have it in standby with screen off, it'll charge slowly (takes most of a day for a full charge) and if the Tab is switched off, it'll go a lot faster (though still not as fast as with the power adapter.)
This is good to know as you can plug it in to your computer and let it set on your desk at work all day and know that it is slowly trickle charging.
I also found that plugging the USB cable into an Apple adapter (from an iPhone) brought up the same "Connect your charger" message, but did charge the Tab, faster than a USb but not as well as my samsung plug.
So my cousin gave me his HP TouchPad to fix because it didnt boot up, he had gotten it from someone and it worked for a while as he stated but than it died and now it woulndt turn on. It's a 16bg i believe and i have searched the forums so i did try a few tricks. When i hold the power button it gives me the low battery and right after it, the white connect to power logo. It shuts off afterwards. When i connected to the computer straight away, it gives the low battery and says to charge reliably use the original cables and so fort, then it shuts off. Anyone can help me with this please?
Thank You
did you try to charge it with the original charger?
Bad charging cables are known to cause this problem.
Well I have the USB cable it came with but not the wall charger. Tried cables from my galaxy s 4g, blackberry and few other cables that fit it. Nothing. Tried apple wall charger and Samsung wall charger still nothing. U know where I can buy the originals for it?

You need that hp charger or one that puts outt the same juice 5.3v=2.0A it wont charge on the computers usb port.
It will charge with a 1 amp charger(iPhone;htc wall usb) albeit slowly.
Definately test another cable, find the highest rated USB charger you can, ????, profit!
Well thanks for the replies. I just got home from work and it was connected to the usb port all day, now i took my iphone chargers end and connected it into the power strip and connected the usb. Any idea where i can find the originals or ones that work for this touchpad. When ever power connects to it, low battery comes up showing little bit left with red and it says connect originals if u want the most reliable charging..

nothing is 100% sure, but you will need an original charger anyway...only 5 bucks to find out...i bought 2 just to have an extra usb cable.....
also a nice addition to have is the touchstone charger, yet they run about 40 bucks..you can check one out at tiger direct or flebay.
well thank you and i will keep you guys updated. ordered the original one today.
you can get a wall charger for $5 http://www.shopping.hp.com/en_US/ho.../FB341AA?HP-TouchPad-Power-Charger&aoid=35252

Hey guys,
I purchased this dock and at first I absolutely loved it. However, just recently when I use this dock to connect my N2 to my tv, sometimes the content on my tv screen flickers. I use qualoty hdmi cables and made sure all cables are secure and toghtly plugged in. It is important to mention that this is my 2nd N2 (I was having problems witg my first N2). This screen flickering never happend with my first N2 and I want to know of it is the accessory that is a problem or my actual smartphone that is. I should also mention that my 2nd N2 has a problem, whenever I plug my charger in it is loosely plugged in and falls out sometimes (if this is an indication of a faulty mocrousb port then perhaps the faulty microusb port is causing the flickering on my tv screen).
Does anybody have this accessory? How does yours work?
Thanks for your time.

very likely a dodgy usb socket will cause that problem.
My dock is a EDD-S20EWE, not tried it on the tv yet, but I have used an MHL cable and it works fine without flickering

i was having the same problem and i tried a diffenrt hdmi cable and the flickering stoped. I hope this helps.
So, for the past couple of days I've run my battery pretty much dry, when I got to a charger it was at about 6-12% both times. What I've noticed is that my phone doesn't seem to charge from anything except the charger it came with (in the dock... now that I think of it, I should probably have tested that as well, so it isn't just shutting down USB when low on battery) when it is in this low-battery state, nor does it appear in ADB. I tried shutting the phone off and charging like that, but it didn't work. As I am typing this, the phone (currently at a much higher charge) is successfully charging from exactly the same machine and same USB cable that it wouldn't work with last night while at 6%... what gives?
Has anyone else experienced this?
For the record I am running CyanogenMod nightlies (2013-06-10), however I am finding it difficult to believe that software would have an impact on this.

That's strange. I'm currently using my. Old x10 charger and got no trouble. The manufacturer should not have any impact for charging. You can use an iDevice charger if you really need juice. ( of course with the right cable )

I believe it's CM that not allows off charging... If I want to charge my old x10, I had to tun it on. If I connect the charger the green light tun on. So it go into flashmod.

Well like I said, at the moment (at 80%) it is charging fine using all manner of chargers (Apple iPhone charger included). It is only when I really need it that it doesn't seem to want to charge from "lesser" chargers

I guess I will have to restore Sony software on it and try at some point. It certainly doesn't seem like there is a good reason for this behaviour to be hardware related, I mean what if I didn't have the dock? (Again, need to test if the original charger will charge via USB in low battery state)

Not as bad as you seem to think
Ok, I think I've nailed this down. My Xperia Z dropped to 18% at some point during the weekend. And all I had to charge it with was an iPhone charger (providing up to 1.1A so that's still not too bad) and a USB cable without a data pair. This didn't start charging. However, luckily my friend had an LG charger with a USB cable containing data pairs. This did start charging! (And his phone charged using my iPhone charger with data-less USB cable) Unfortunately I am an idiot and didn't think to try his cable with the iPhone charger, but at least this is a start! (I'm starting to believe it is the iPhone chargers somehow, which is strange because electricity is electricity, and chargers don't discriminate)
I use my old N900 charger
Sorry to hear you have problems with the charger, I use my N900 charger to charge anything (that charges by micro USB - Including my Xperia Z) around the house with no problems. I can't charge the phone in a MAC or PC USB port if the device is not detected (even if the port has power), but I found out that lots of devices behave like this (I guess its a good way of forcing users to buy a "quick" charger).

Ok. It's effectively a start of and answer. It make me believe that the phone communicate somehow someway with the charger. But that sounds unrealistic.
You wake up my curiosity. Will try to look at this. But it will take some time.

That's odd, a micro USB cable doesn't change by the manufacturer, except if they change de voltage, i use the Sony cable and a GS3 usb cable at work, no any problem.
Anyway just in case i always prefer to use the manufacturer cable to avoid damage my phone.

We don't think it is the cable (unless it is a cable which only has the power pair and no data pair, that could be a problem), but rather the charger, that is causing problems.
I purchased z1 recently came with magnetic charging dock. I cannot get the charging dock to work.
I plugged USB into pc and the phone in the dock, the pin on the phone should be matched into the dock, but I don't see the phone show charging. is there any settings on the phone need to be enable for this ? or is the dock not working?
