    Q: Why is charging of Motorola phones so slow on the travel charger?

    A: The standard travel charger packaged by Motorola with many current
    phones puts out insufficient power for fastest possible charging and for
    continuous use while charging.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
    For example, charger SSW-0509 for the V551 puts out only 375 mA. The
    V551 detects this as a slow charger, and thus keeps the external display
    backlight off during charging. Worse, there's not enough current to
    keep up with use of the phone while charging, so while the phone is use,
    the battery will still be discharged even with the phone on the charger.
    With a fast charger the external display backlight is on during
    charging, and the phone can be used while the battery is charging.

    Motorola makes fast 1500 mA chargers that are compatible with these phones:
    * SPN4716* (where * might be "B" or "C"), also known as
    * NNTN4250 (nominally for Nextel, but also works with non-Nextel phones).
    These chargers are readily available from dealers and on eBay for under
    $15 (plus shipping).
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Motorola mini USB (EMU) chargers for RAZR, KRZR (with power output if known):
    * Wall "travel" (AC) charger (comes with the phone)
    + Motorola SPN5185/SPN5185A/SPN5185B/98604H: 550 mA (mid)
    + Motorola SPN5202/98605: 850 mA (fast)
    * Car (12V) charger
    + Motorola SYN1630/SYN0847/98603H/VC700
    * External rechargeable battery/charger
    + Motorola SPN5353/P790/98782H
    * (5 pin) mini USB cable to computer: 500 mA
    + Motorola SKN6371C
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
    (For what it's worth, Motorola probably saves less than $1 in cost by
    packaging slower chargers instead of fast chargers with its phones.)

    Q: Where can I get USB modem drivers for Motorola cell phones?

    A: <http://developer.motorola.com/docstools/USB_Drivers/Handset_USB_Driver/>
    [registration required, but free]

    1. UNinstall any existing driver in Device Manager before installing this
    driver.

    2. Install this driver _before_ connecting cell phone.

    Every time this crap is posted, someone feels he HAS to comment!

    Thank you for doubling the number of junk postings. Don't anyone bother
    to thank me for tripling the number.

    To be fair, the number of replies/complaints are _way_ down- the stupid bi-
    monthly FAQs USED to touch off 30-40 post debate threads over just what
    plague of Biblical scope we all hoped John Navas should be subject to for
    posted them- now we're down to just one or two complaints or cease-and-
    desist requests.


    Personally, I look at it in the scope of the groups' totality. Are Navas'
    six stupid "FAQ" posts a month to .attws annoying? Sure, but lots of folks
    here post at least six annoying things here each month (myself included,
    I'm sure!) and Navas' are easy to filter and/or ignore, as are the replies.

    No doubt he set his news reader to automatically send out those monthly
    posts. Just be thankful that that's the extent of his nonsense these
    days. Maybe he got tired of losing every debate.

    At least he hasn't been posting in the photography groups lately. His
    photographic knowledge (and expertise) matches his knowledge of cell
    phone chargers.

    Why do you expect a moron to be able to understand that he IS a moron?
    Telling a moron that he IS a moron may make YOU feel better but it's a
    waste of time and bandwidth!

    On the contrary: making oneself feel better is a valuable use of time &
    bandwidth.

    <mmmm. that felt good.>

    You're the one that needs help. But I do want to thank you for staying
    out of the photography groups. Your lack of photographic understanding
    and mediocre skills with the craft are not missed.

    You come in here twice a month to post **** about nothing and you, two+
    weeks later, telling *another* to "Get professional help"?

    The irony.
