Charging via PC?
hello,
i've received my dingoo today. sadly the AC-adaptor is not compatible to the power plugs in our country. now the battery has drowned, and i wonder how i could recharge the dingoo. if i connect it via USB to my PC, the dingoo gets recognized as a memory and can be accessed via "My Computer". is the dingoo charging while doing this? how long does a full charge take, when charging via USB on the PC?
is there any faster way to charge? can i use every AC-to USB adaptor to charge it or are there some limitations?
try 'ejecting' the dingoo from windows, but leave the cable connected, the dingoo's screen should now show a big icon of the battery charging - which should change when its fully charged.
also, try plugging it directlty into usb port on pc, not via a USB hub - mine wouldnt charge correctly until i did this (my hub obviously doesnt supply enough current to charge the dingoo)
hope this helps
Does the screen always stays on while recharging? It gets pretty hot.
It charges through the PC, it just doesn't show it.
I had the same problem, but was lucky enough to find my parents had a mini-USB that's got 3 prongs.
