If you can't use or don't have access to a powered hub, you can use a USB "Y" cable - a usb cable that plugs into two ports on your computer. One port acts as power/data and the other supplies power. WOrks good if you are running on a laptop that is running in powersaver mode where USB voltage is reduced to save energy on the laptop.
If at all possible, use your AC adapter to charge your phone.

i used my AC adapter whenever i can but im at work and can only use my work computer. It seems there are times when it charges quickly and smoothly but then times when it doesnt charge for s*$t. I try what you said up there...
On another note, is anyone else experiencing this problem. My facebook app wont load picture... Weird...
