[QtMoko] USB charging (and network) from Windows 7
Hi folks, is there any way to force usb charging in QtMoko ? As there is no support for usb networking with Windows 7 (it seems to be disabled in QtMoko kernel), my Freerunner only gets 100ma while being plugged on my workplace computer through USB. How can I force it to gets 500ma ? As QtMoko (v35) seems to consume a bit more battery than my old SHR, I would like to be able to charge it during the day (without bringing the charger). Any idea ? I've spotted a Fast charge mod in the upper left menu (the one full of icons) but it seems to do nothing. Thanks in advance for help.

If you put the phone to sleep, it should draw like 14mA, so you can charge with 86mA. Any idea ? I've spotted a Fast charge mod in the upper left menu (the one full of icons) but it seems to do nothing. It's one of the original scripts from Qt Extended/Qtopia.
