How do I know if my phone is compatible?

What does 'shielded cable' mean?

Troubleshooting

Device not charging

Ensure the cable is fully inserted into both the device and the power source. Try a different USB port or power adapter. Confirm your device supports charging via USB. Clean the Micro USB port on your device if dusty.

Data transfer not working

Verify that the cable is securely connected at both ends. Check your phone's USB settings to ensure it's set to 'File Transfer' or 'MTP' mode. Ensure you have the necessary drivers or software installed on your computer. Try a different USB port on your computer.

Slow data transfer speeds
