Got my proporta USB TurboCharger.
the micro usb plug that comes with it is too large to fit into the n900 (also too large for n96, so i guess its not standard).
it also comes with a plug for the previous nokia chargers, so i used it with the small power adapter that comes with the n900 and it charges ok*.
*though the adapter gets a bit hot and charging takes forever through this thing.
UPDATE:
i've contacted proporta, and they sent me a new connector head that works!!
*no need to short the data pins (http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...sb+charge+pins) the connector head already does it. so the retractable cable that comes with it can be used with any dumb charger.
( https://www.amazon.de/Proporta-Turbo...1801695&sr=8-1 )
and it does not charge the N900. :-(
The N900 does not charge when switched on.
It does start to charge if N900 is switched off but the orange indicator LED only blinks 3-5 times, then the white moving dots appear and charging stops, the whole cycle starts again after some time - does anybody know what this means?
I also tried the "Just Mobile Pro" ( https://www.amazon.de/Just-Mobile-Po...1801756&sr=1-1 ) and it also shows the same behaviour.
Is there any external battery pack that charges the N900 for certain or gives even power when the N900 is switched on?
Is there some way to tell the N900 that it should start charging even with lower voltage?
Some configuration in /etc or similar?
