CE OS 5.2.20771 /20771.1.4.6
ROM version 5.11.502.2 WWE 5/6/09
I plug my phone into a car charger and hang it on a dash mount. While power is connected, I want the phone and screen to stay on and bright. No matter what the settings are set to for powered mode, it goes to sleep in about a minute. I see the power plug indicator, so it knows its plugged in.
No problem if its plugged into a USB port on my computer--always stays on. In my car I have my Jawbone connected, on my desk a BlueAnt speakerphone.
Maybe I found a solution--I plugged in the USB dongle that came with the phone and plugged the charger into that., Stays on now. I also have a FM adapter plugged into the headphone jack to play music on my car stereo.
I have my old android phone connected to my audio port and charging port 90% of the time, I would like it to start playing when power goes through the charger ( when i start my car ) and stop when the charger turns off... Can someone help me accomplish this ?
Unfortunately I don't have bluetooth streaming in my car..
After connecting my Galaxy Note to the TV to watch some shows, the phone won't charge in the cradle any more.The phone only charges when plugged directly from mains or USB.
There is nothing wrong with the cradle, I have inadvertently changed the settings on the note.
Can anyone suggest what I can do.
I have a phone which I want permanently connected to an OTG keyboard and charger. (Mounted in car)
It's connected via a microUSB charging hub. (Pic attached)
The male MicroUSB must be plugged into the phone at all times - it cannot be removed. Likewise, all other components (OTG keyboard and microUSB power cord) must always be connected permanently.
So, the only option I have is to switch the power off at the source, i.e. cut power to the microUSB charging cable going into the whole system. (The power is cut when the car is turned off)
All the OTG charging hubs do not resume charging when the power supply is turned on again. It only recognises to charge the phone when I unplug the male MicroUSB from the phone and reinsert it.
Can I set up a tasker task to simulate this unplugging and plugging, say when the battery is less than 50% - so that when the car is on it charges the phone.
I've done some research and there seems to be a usb bind/unbind command I could potentially use?
Thanks for the help.

You can cut 5v wire (to phone and not to hub-> needs 5v to operate with all usb devices) and put switch on, so when you need to charge just turn on the switch. So you have modified cable from hub to phone. Really simple solution. I've done it couple of times to fix friends tablets (aka 10 inch nav displays) + Phone charging + Auto android HUR + USB drive(for music collection), all shares same active powered hub.
Good luck.
Hello guys
I recently changed from S9+ to S21 and I have a question : I usually use my desktop computer to charge my phone during night while I sleep. (with data USB cable)
I have no problem when the desktop is on (under windows) : my phone charge (with USB cable) and I can transfert photos.
When my computer is off, when I plug the phone, the screen show the charging screen for 2 seconds and stops
I have no problem with my S9 to charge when the computer is off. (I know that there is an option in the bios to keep USB charging when computer is switched off)
It looks like the USB power is too low, and the S21 doesn't want to charge with it.
Maybe ther is an option in the phone to authorize this kind of charging ?

There isn't such an option in the OS as of now. It's possible that the S21 battery amp requirements are more than those of S9
Do you think the computer's USB port has a lower supply when the computer is turned off ?
We don't know what kind of computer you have, or what it's USB port capabilities are. That's something you can try to figure out, looking at your computer or manual for the computer's motherboard. Also check the BIOS settings, sometimes you can control the power state of the computer when it is "off" and whether power is still supplied to the USB ports (e.g., to allow the computer to boot up when it detects mouse or keyboard USB inputs).
As an example, my MSI motherboard has a feature where you can install software to set the USB ports to a high power output state, so you can power USB devices using more than the standard output current.
My Dell laptop has a USB port with a special symbol that means it's for high-power output for charging phones etc. So it can handle charging modern phones, and puts out more than 0.5 amps, but only for those USB ports with the special symbol (lightning bolt).
You'll need to just find out more information about what your computer is capable of.
I have a MSI gaming pro carbon X370 ( the optional wake by USB is on, without that, you're right, the USB are totally off and nothing will charge)
I did more investigations .... I tried all my USB cables and all USB ports and finally find 1 combination that works.
Only 1 of 12 USB cables worked ( the one took from an external HDD ) even the original cable supplied with the phone didn't work and nor a 100W Ugreen cable...
And only the front USB work. The different USB directly on the motherboard doesn't work with this phone, despite I always used them to charge many devices...
for information the working cable is a KAIBAO revision 3.0
Finally it doesn't work with this cable : it take longer before the phone stops to charge, but it stops too ...
Hi,
You need to check the power requirements of your new phone.
Thank you.
