So, I am charging, or rather, trying to charge, my 5x. Since the charger supplied with it is back home, i am using some cables i bought on amazon, with type-C connectors. I plug these into my laptop, since I dont have a wall plug with usb port handy at work.
However, charging over the usb port seems to do nothing, or at least not charge my battery. Then I tried a little usb-micro to type-c converter plug on an older samsung charger which does plug in the wall, but that didnt improve it either.
I know the supplied charger works, and I know my car charger i got works too, both rapid charging too.
Any ideas? Are laptop ports not supplying enough amps?
