Obviously I was using one of those non-data capable cable and no data was going through that port.
I've never come across a charge-only cable. I understand why someone would use one (e.g. public charging), but I thought some use of the data pins was necessary to switch from lower power mode.
If you keep unusual cables, label them. It'll save you from some headaches in the future.
Yeah... funny you wrote this as I was wondering they make those kind of cables as the extra cost for full data cable is really not much and secondly why they are not labelled as such! ... guess I could indeed label them myself.
I usually get those when buying cheap battery-powered stuff requiring a cable to charge its battery. So I will label them when I identify some.
Thank you.
