Instructions
Step 1
Check if your phone model supports USB charging. To do this, go to the manufacturer's website and familiarize yourself with the characteristics of your mobile. For example, if you have a Samsung phone, go to https://www.samsung.com/ua_ru/consumer/mobile-phones/mobile-phones/index.idx?pagetype=type_p2&. Most Nokia models do not support this feature, but some models are an exception. List of models with this feature: 3710 fold, 5630 XpressMusic, 6500 classic, 7900 Crystal Prism, 7900 Prism, 8600 Luna, 8800 Arte, 8800 Carbon Arte, 8800 Gold Arte, 8800 Sapphire Arte, E72, E75, N85, N900, N97, N97 mini, X3.
Step 2
Connect your phone with a cable to the USB port of your laptop. On your phone, select a connection mode such as Media Transfer or Mass Storage. Next, on the laptop screen, select the phone and open the explorer window. Look at the screen of your mobile and determine by the state of the charging indicator whether your phone has started charging. Wait for the phone to charge from USB and disconnect the cable.
Step 3
Use an additional battery for your laptop if you often need to charge your phone from a laptop, for example, on a train, in a car. For example, connect an APC Universal Notebook Battery to it. It is a universal battery that fits all laptops. It represents an alternative option for extending the operating time of equipment by several hours; this device weighs 750 grams.
Step 4
Please note when charging your phone from a laptop that the USB connector is only capable of providing 500 mA of charging current, while a regular wall charger supplies the phone with a current of about 800 mA. Therefore, the charging time of the phone from the computer will be longer than from the outlet.
