    Hi

    I've been using my w910i's 3G to send emails from my AOA150-Aw which has UNR installed (fully updated). Only issue is, when i plug the phone in via USB, the netbook will charge it. This eats the 3 cell battery like a starving child.

    Is there any way to disable the charge mode and just use data transfer?

    This should be a feature of your phone...

    You know, at first i was going to berate your comment, since options for any sort of charging were not available on the menu or settings of my phone... however with some extremely creative googling (and some less than savoury websites) it turns out that there is a "Secret" settings menu on Sony Ericsson phones, accessable via this code/command:

    >*<<*<* (where > = right and < = left )

    Wow. Never knew that.

    Problem Solved, thanks for the nudge in the right direction.
