Hello all,
I looked through some threads here on chargers and read another on the ibolt docks but figured I'd start a new one rather than necro-thread.
Anyhow, I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 (AT&T) and recently bought the ibolt xprodock to use with it. My problem is, I can't seem to find a charger that will keep my phone charging while running in this dock. In fact, I'd be happy even if I found one that kept it dead even, as it is right now it drops about a percent every 1-2 minutes or so. When I'm in the dock I'm running a dashcam app and I know they use battery but I turn the screen off so I would imagine I should be able to find a charger that will at least keep it from draining while doing this, right?
I've read various information on data vs. charge cable, etc. so do I possibly need to swap out the cable this thing came with? Or am I just not buying the right type of charger? I've tried one or 2 of the "cheapy" chargers that are single USB outlets supposedly rated at 1000mA and I picked up one this weekend that is another single outlet 2.1A charger and claims to be for android instead of Apple.
Anybody have any luck using this dock and getting their battery to charge properly while in it?
