So I don't know if I need a new USB cable or what but I noticed that when I plugged my Lumia 920 in my car charger it showed up like it was charging but when I used the Nokia Drive app it was actually depleting the battery. Suddenly the phone shut off and was out of battery. All I got on the screen was the low battery indication.
After about 10 minutes it started back up because it had enough charge.
I went to the battery saver option and it said it was at 6% battery, I turned the screen off for 5 minutes and checked again... it then said 7% battery. I loaded Nokia drive up and about 5 minutes of use I checked the battery saver option again and it fell down to 5%.
It's seems to me that when the phone is being used (screen on) it draws to much power to charge the device, but when it the screen is off it actually charges it.
Anyone else notice this or care to try this themselves?
