Does this dock charge the phone, or does it just hold the phone?

It charges the battery and fully functional while it is docked (charging). They also included a screen protector for free!

there is a micro-usb port on the side to plug in a charging cord. The charging cord that came with the phone will work. The dock will charge the phone with the cord plugged in. It works great!

PoloHi...you can charge your phone..and very easy to use, just plug the phone and start the charge....( you need to have the cable from the wall to this charger, use the cable that came with your original charger)....

No. The dock is basically a passthrough for the USB cable. You plug your USB cable in the dock and the dock has a micro-USB connector of its own. What you are looking for is an external battery charger.

the cord from outlet to dock is standard usb -> micro-usb. the cord from dock to phone is micro 3.0 (the dual-plug)

I returned the dock I purchased because I have a Motorola Droid Razr HD (Not the Maxx) and the info was confusing about which phone it charges. Well it DOES NOT dock with my phone. I don't know which phone it does dock with but not with mine.

Your question was when plugged in...in computer would it charge the phone?Hmmmm...okay honestly I really dont like to assume plus your question is a bit unclear but if I had to assume I believe you are referring to the Dock...plugging the Dock into the computer...and if so will it charge the phone...just to clarify! After testing the theory myself I can definitively say No It Will Not Charge the Phone!Using a data cable or a micro USB plug for your phone....you can actually plug the Dock into your Computer or Personal PC or even your Laptop....but all 3 results just will not charge your phone....I hope this helps!

Yes, the phone can be charged/powered while docked. You need a car charger, which can remain attached to the dock.

It isa micro-usb which inputs into the dock for charging. The standard usb connects to the wall outlet charger.

if you have usb charging cable you can use it to charge the phone that has battery inside. If you have extra battery you can put the battery in the dock. You do not put the phone in the dock.

No, there is no charging dock. The cord just plugs into a small jack on the bottom.

Yes, you can still charge the phone while in the dock since the phone is held horizontally.

The dock has an input for a mini USB on the back ,,then the cable that goes to the phone comes out of the dock

That is what I use it for. Realize that it only works with the dock though. The charger is not "the original charger that came with the device?" So trying to charge the phone with the cable is for some reason impossible.

We bought 2 docks. Our Z3s would only charge if held just perfectly-a near impossible task. Results might be different if you have a case on your phone

Yes, the dock will charge the phone. I ran a long micro USB cable from my aux power port to the dock so it is always ready for the phone.

The phone charges when docked. You can alternatively plug your phone in to a standard lightning cable charger and play through the speaker via Bluetooth or via the Aux In port on the back of the dock (with a 3.5mm cable).

It only charges with a device attached. It does not hold or continue to retain when not attached to a device.
