If so, then technically even the powered USB1.1 hub should have worked. Now it is possible that the 1.1 hub's power block did not have sufficient rating to power the 2 devices. Regardless of how cheap the HUB is it should have had atleast a 2000mA adapter. 500mA X 4 ports. With 2 phones that should have allowed 1000mA per phone which is plenty.
If not, then a hub wont work period.

The TP will charge if it is plugged into a ACtoUSB adapter. I personally wonder if the circuitry in the hub kills the power to the ports if it is not recieving a power signal from the PC side through some sort of relay. It would seem like a feature that they would use to conserve power in the hub. Quick way to check would be to plug some sort of USB powered device (keyboard maybe) into the hub and see if it powers up without that PC signal cable connected
