How to connect Dingoo to computer? (mine just charges)

Postby tj1 on Wed Jun 10, 2009 6:45 am

I'm probably missing something simple here, when I connect my Dingoo to my compuer it just charges, it doesn't display as a storage device in Windows.

Do I have to press some button or change some setting so that it appears as a storage device instead of just charging?

Thanks.

I use Windows XP.

It worked for me only two times. But have not been able to connect it anymore and have it recognized as a storage device. It always starts charging now.

Is there some setting or some button(s) I have to press when connecting?

Thanks.

Make sure you're using USB 2.0.

boot up a livecd/distribution of linux or something related, e.g. gparted livecd. plug it in, open a terminal and type dmesg. Gives you useful debug messages =]. Thats if you can be bothered lol

Thanks for your help.

It seems to be working now.

I think there's something wrong with the mini plug of the USB cable, it kind of fits a bit loose in the Dingoo. The Dingoo and the USB cable have to be perfectly still, otherwise if I move them it will most likely lose the connection to the computer.

Also, the B button has to be held pressed before connecting it.
