I know this might sound dumb but i need all the help possible. I'm on holiday now for a month and the bad news is that i 4got my charger back home. So technically i can't charger. And i didnt take my PC2mobile connection since i wont be using it. any idea on how the hell i can charge my battery. Shops here r selling the charger for 30US$ which is a bit xpensive when i actually do have the charger.

any help is really appreciated.

Theres nothing you can do if you have forgotten charger & PC cable, no other way to charge it i don't think.

as long as the computer is switched on everything should be fine and should charge. mine does.

the only thing is that the cable might be faulty

Just a thought.. maybe it requires drivers for phone to recognize it and actually charge it instead of just "linking" it to computer? I donīt remember how my Moto V3 reacted when hooked up to "unknown" computer (as in without MPT installed)

From what i know, as long as there is a current running through the cable, everything should be fine. No need for drivers and stuff. Thats only needed for transfering pictures and multimedia etc.

correct me if i'm wrong....

Can't you just go into a shop and ask then to charge it for you for an hour :-) that's what i would do... This message was posted from a K750

My guess is that the USB cable is only good for trickle charging. On all the K750i's I've tested, they won't charge above 85%(ish) on USB. Maybe that also happens with a minimum %age; anything below that just doesn't charge...

Maybe.. i can tell you that when my V3 died it was impossible to charge via USB anyway. I still think it (computer) needs to be able to identify what device is at the other end of the USB-cable.
Whatīs the harm in trying with the drivers installed anyway? Or you already have?
