Oct 19, 2022 at 15:35 comment added Crigges So couldn't it be possible that my phone is a "device which ignores the USB standard and draws more than the allowed 0.5A for USB 2"?
Oct 19, 2022 at 13:48 comment added Robert The Y cables are in general a violation of the USB standard. They only work for devices which themself ignore the USB standard and draw more than the allowed 0.5A for USB 2 or 0.9A for USB 3. The idea behind the Y cables is to avoid destroying USB ports by drawing too much power from it (or to improve the maximum current that is available to the USB device).
Oct 19, 2022 at 12:25 comment added Crigges If this is true then there is no solution to my problem, right? And what about the "USB Y Cables" that are beeing sold. Are those just snake oil?
Oct 19, 2022 at 5:10 comment added Robert Is don't thing the wall charger will help you as usually devices detect that they are connected to a charger by the not connected data cables. Only then the 0.5A restriction is ignored. So you can't have both, USB data connection and increased current at the same time.
Oct 18, 2022 at 20:08 comment added Crigges @Robert Yes. Yet I would consider the offical wall charger USB compliant aswell and it can deliver up to 2 Amps. This is why I am asking if there is maybe a way using a special cable or USB hub.
Oct 18, 2022 at 19:47 comment added Robert Your Mainboard and device are simply working USB compliant. USB 2.0 devices are allowed to draw a maximum of 0.5 A. For more power you need an USB 3 device (0.9 A) or even better one that supports USB-PD.
