Hi Guys,
I noticed that when I connect the universal connector to my pc or wall outlet, there is noise coming from the speakers. It's kind of a squeaky sound. Anyone else notice this?
Thanks.
Are you using the same outlet the PC is connected to? Try an outlet in another room.
Its a different outlet. The tablet is super quiet when not connected. Anyone have one they can test out .. it kinda sounds like a harddrive running but i never hear the sound when actually using the device
Just a guess.. maybe your charger is rated too low amps, or going bad. I have used 3rd party chargers that were cheap and caused the tablet to make a noise. But, with a good charger it stops.
Try substituting another (known good) charger and see if it still makes noises.
Good luck.
Whoops. I meant the universal connector port. The charger is the original asus prime one. All hardware and charger is original. No third party stuff.

I don't find a car charger powerful enough to Charge my Phone.
What is the right choice??
Brodit active charger.
I use it while navigating with the screen on and overclocked and charges just fine.
There are plenty of cigarette lighter chargers which offer a USB port instead of a dedicated cable. Simply use your phone's USB cable with this charger. Mine cost like £3.50, and it works just fine on my Hero.
Been using a Technocel Platinum MV3CPCP that came with a Moto Razr v3 with my HTC Sensation and used it previously with a BB8900 with no issues. When in the car listening to the Music app and GPS nav runnin' it eventually drains the battery meaning that the fone is using more power than the charger is providing but it is a USB charger putting out nominal power so this must mean the the fone can use more power than is provided while charging by normal means, yes? ... anyone else with a similar experience?
TIA
Any cigarette lighter USB adapter will be fine to just stick your USB cable into.
Here's one on Amazon for £3.83 delivered:

Hi,
In my 2 different make vehicles if I plug the HD2 into the Aux Input of the stereo and then into the car charger the phone instantly restarts (in one of the vehicles) or gets an instant red, blue, green, white screen which takes a couple of battery removals and restarts to cure in the other vehicle.
Does anybody have any idea why this happens?
All is fine if I only plug into the Aux Input but any attempt to charge the phone as well kills it instantly?
Tried a genuine car charger and a cheap Chinese knock off, both do the same thing.
Appreciate any suggestions as to why this may be so, would a diode in the charger line help?
Thanks.
Wow thats kinda wild. The only thing I would say is never start the vehicle with the phone plugged in. Most Chargers are supposed to regulate the volt/amps but if the charger is messed up even a little it could fry your phone. On a side note I had a car EQ in a PC one time and if you cut the EQ on while the PC was on it would restart the PC. So we always cut the EQ on First. With that said perhaps your problem is the order of operations.
Hey all,
I am thinking about getting the official Samsung car dock but had a few questions before I bought it:
1) In my youth, I heard that plugging and unplugging a device shortened the battery life. I am afraid that would be the case when I would charge my phone on the way home from work, when it's only like 40% still. Do these new batteries still have the shortened battery life problem when the charge cycle does not get complete? The same question applies to an alarm clock with phone dock that I am thinking about purchasing (know any good ones?).
2) I have a custom stereo with a USB input. Would it just work to go straight from the mini-USB to the stereo USB, and not need to use both the AUX output from the dock as well as the cigarette lighter? I guess using the AUX option I could bypass the issue in #1 above, since AUX doesn't charge it (mini-USB to USB does charge the phone), but I still prefer mini-USB to USB for audio quality.
3) This is a general question. My car originally had a two-din stereo, and I bought a 1-din with a compartment for the other din. Has anyone seen something that could go in the din to help hold the dock?
Thanks for any help!
The car dock sticks to your windshield or it comes with a plastic dics that you can permanently stick to the dashboard.
The dock comes with a cigarette/micro usb cord the connects to the dock. And for audio unless your stereo has bluetooth audio you will need to use a auxiliary 3.5m jack from phone to car.. That's how I have it set up on my car

The car dock will not allow a USB connection to the USB port - it is changed to an analog audio output when docked.
As to 1) - That's an old rule from the days of ****ty timed chargers that would start charging a battery for a set period of time when you turned it on. No phone sold on the market today is set up like this - they all have intelligent battery charging circuits that can handle almost any plugging/unplugging pattern.
Hello everyone,
I was wondering if there is a way to increase the charge rate while connected to an MHL adapter.
I have a 2014 Civic Si that literally has an HDMI input for the head unit.
I bought an MHL adapter and it works very well other than a safety limitation that stops screen mirroring while driving, and the fact that even if I am just using it to get the best quality audio into my head unit with the screen turned off, the MHL adapter uses more current than it returns to the phone, resulting in battery loss.
I have the usb power connected to a 2 amp 12v charger that works fantastic when it is just connected with a regular micro usb cable so I know its not the charger.
I have found some evidence that there is a mod that can basically tell the phone that it is connected via AC to take more current.
Would be awesome if someone could provide this, or another solution to this problem. I imagine there are a lot of people like me out there who like to use MHL adapters but don't want their battery to die.
Thanks
Check the quality of the cord. If it's some cheapo one from like eBay or something that may be the problem.
I've found that some of my older degraded cords won't charge the phone while I'm using it.
Also if you roll/folded the cord up sometimes it can pinch it just right to not supply the right charging power.

To be clear it does show that it is charging (via USB) but its using more current than its getting thus end result is the drain.
It could very well be the cable - hence why I am asking if anyone can recommend a tried and tested solution of MHL + charge that actually charges it quickly.
Thanks,

Hey guys! I need to purchase a USB car charger for my galaxy s4 and I want to make sure I'm buying the right one. I saw this one for example....Amazon.com: Anker® 18W / 3.6A Dual Port USB Car Charger with Built-In Micro USB Cord for Android (Apple Cable Not Included) (Black): Electronics
I know this one says its compatible with the S4 but my question is does it matter that its 18W/3.6A? Browsing different car chargers, I've noticed they all have different strengths. My question is, are they all safe?? Or will something like this one fry the phone or battery??
Any input will be greatly appreciated guys!!

i used one of these with my Charge and I did not have any issues with. I will say that only used it if had to have a bump to hold me over until I got home. Some after market chargers (Plugs and cords) will cause your phone to heat up. If your heat gets too high the next thing you know items are looking up and everything becomes a mess So I would say if you have to use this just be cautious and watch the heat on your phone.
Avantek USB Car Charge is good from all other chargers; personally I use Avantek USB car charger its service is so good.
I hope you also try to take good service.
