Hi All,
I have a Blackberry Torch, and I cannot seem to charge my phone in the car, neither with the USB port, or with the cigarette outlet via an adaptor (cigarette adaptor with a usb port on the other end instead of an attached power cord - the torch uses the new mini usb port, so I plug in my computer's cord)!!
When I plug in the phone with either of the above connections, the phone does indeed recognize that it is hooked up to the car (the screen changes), but it gives a message saying these ports are not powerful enough to charge the device, or something along those lines. When viewing the top left corner where the battery indicator is, it does NOT show the little 'lightning bolt' that indicates the device is charging.
Has anyone else had problems charging their phones? I tried a friend's Blackberry Bold, and it DID charge, with only the USB port - but NOT the cigarette outlet...
Perhaps it some sort of phone/car setting??
