I have a g2, but looking for a universal dock with separate connections for micro-usb and AC to allow for simultaneous fast charging and sync connection to a PC. Does such a thing exist?
Don't think so, since those 4 USB pins are all connected to the charger (2 for power +/-, and 2 to let the phone know about it's higher charging capacity), leaving no room for a standard usb connection any more.
I have a Beklin Wireless Charging Pad 10W and it works fine with my XZ2. However sometime I need to share my mobile network to the laptop, and every time when I plug the USB cable it will automatically change to get charge by USB.
Of cause I can keep the wireless charging by using the hotspot feature, but I find that hotspot + wireless charging + once opening some other apps it will make the phone overheat and I often get the overheat message. Therefore I am curious, is it possible to keep charging by Wireless Pad and share the mobile network with USB cable?
Thank you!
Does anyone know of a USB cable that it capable of supporting AA and has USB-C on one end (for device) and double 3.1 on the other end (to vehicle)?
I have 2 USB ports in my vehicle. The input port for AA does not charge the phone sufficiently when is running and the other port does fast charging but doesn't allow AA to run.
Thanks very much!
Welcome to the never ending problem! No, it is not possible to do what you want to do, that is, to be connected to AA and to fast charge your phone from an other usb port or car charger. I tried everything, including powered usb hubs, nothing works, unfortunately.

Do you have wireless charging on the phone? Might be able to add a wireless pad in the car.

Thought about that but I'm worried about overheating. I guess I might need to try it and find out?
Do not be worried of overheating, if the phone is connected to a usb cable and port and it detects charging, it will automatically disable the wireless charging.
The only way is to replace, if possible, car's charging circuit with a fast charging one.

Hi there!
My life does not match any pattern, that's probably why the new Smart Charge feature does not really work. I manually stop charging around 80% whenever possible. However, I frequently travel by car using Android Auto which requires me to connect the phone to the car using USB. It will ALWAYS charge to 100% when connected. Are there any options to disable charging at all? Are there USB cables which do not charge but rather provide a data only connection? Do you have any other suggestions?
You can't do it.
Usb data transfer needs +5v.
You can make a usb cable charge only, but not a usb cable data transfer only.
I'm trying to set up an Octoprint server on my old Note5 and as a result I need to be able to charge while using an OTG cable. I figured out that whenever I plug in a cable into the micro usb port, it disables wireless charging. Is there any way to override this?
