USB Charging

cellulararrest · #1 (**permalink**) 02-09-2008, 06:10 PM

I've been looking, but haven't been successful yet.

Has anyone successfully been able to make the i760 charge while connected to your computer VIA USB? I feel like I read about someone doing it, but not sure? Anyone have a link?

Thanks,
Chris

just my 2 cents, but might just want to look into the desktop cradle/charger, If you don't plan on moving it around much. Works great, and charges the spare battery as well.

Bowtie,

3 of them had bad screens, a dark line "grew" down the center of the screen, and the last one the keyboard quit working. Not that the 6800 has been any better, I got it last Friday and had to warranty it on Sunday because it wouldn't send or receive calls and the techs on the phone and in the store did everything they could to try and make it work. Now my replacement sounds like there is something loose inside of it and when it vibrates it makes this really loud noise with it. I am ready to take this one back as well. I have had no luck with either phone and i am ready to go back to my 6700 that worked flawlessly for 2 years and still is because my wife is still using it. And before anyone asks or states, I do not abuse my phones and none of these have been dropped, kicked, thrown, or any other type of violent action towards them. I treat these things like they are gold.
