Does it charge at the same time?

Very disappointed... I should have read the questions before I bought the cable...definitely doesn't charge the Dell Venue 8 Pro.

I just got the cable and it won't charge my Nexus 7 2012, Nexus 7 2013, or Dell Venue 8 Pro but it did work with the Galaxy S3 (Sprint).

It DOES charge my Galaxy S3 at the same time as my USB deviceA) Connect cable to phone, connect USB device, connect powerPower is ONLY routed to external USB deviceB) Connect cable to phone, connect power, wait till phone starts charging, connect external USB devicePower will charge phone and at the same time power external USB deviced

It charges my nexus 4, seems to work somewhat like a pass through. It will charge slower depending on device draw. Such as a 2.5in external hard drive will exact much more current draw than a flash drive.

In theory yes, but it probably wont work. For those with Dell V8Ps, it isn't working because your power brick isn't supplying sufficient power. Try doing it with the power brick from a Surface 3, that worked for me, also try using a shorter or larger gauge cable. It is my understanding that most Android flagships have the hardware to charge and use host mode concurrently, but some require rooting, see the answers to other questions for more details.

It doesn't charge the Acer Iconia W4 64GB Tablet. :(But the USB side works well with a USB hub so I can connect a mouse & keyboard & flash drive at the same time.

Yes, I regularly charge two devices simultaneously. Great little device, turns two wall plugs into three, plus the two USB ports as well, all active at the same time.

Yes you can charge both the device and phone at the same time. The charging device will take prority during charge if the phones battery is low.

Yes, It can be Used while it is being charged. And its working perfectly as well.

Yes. The battery pack uses advanced Texas Instruments Battery Management IC. So you can charge the battery pack at the same time when it is charging your phones.

Yes you can use it while charging, but it can only be charged via USB cord.

most certainly! I have had two devices charging at the same time with no problem. Certainly one item charges faster but all in all the charger is real quick on recharges and you shouldn't have a problem good luck!

Yes it charges both at the same time! It's a great docking station & sleek. If you shine a light in the space where the battery goes you can see where it attaches to the battery. I use it everywhere. I haven't had any problems with it. It's a great buy.

You cannot charge the phone and case at the same time, from my experience it charges your case first then it charges your phone

Not when the pocket port is completely dead but once it has at least 1 bar of power then yes you can charge both at the same time.

Yes, it does charge it while playing...unless you're using the AUX port of course.

I never try to charge while using this device. But i believe it could. Sorry not to be so helpful.

No, but it charges quickly. As soon as I'm done I plug it in for about 30-60 minutes and it seems to keep its charge.

No it will not charge phone and battery at same time. The cradle is just that, a cradle for placing phone in.

I've noticed it takes a bit longer to charge everything at once, but yes, it does. I find this to be great if I'm in a hotel and have to charge everything at once overnight.

Yes. It plugs in at same place the charger plugs in so you can't do both, but yes it works cause thats what I use it wth

Yes, but it doesn't charge well if you use it while charging. Also very slow charge.
