Does this charge a phone even when the phone is turned off?

mine didn't charge my phone at all. turned on or turned off. in my opinion, its a piece of junk made to sell, not to perform a usefull function

yes- it's part of the charging system, so it acts just like it would with the normal charger. Charges with the phone powered on or off.

Apparently it does. I just turned the power off and placed it on the charger pad. After a couple seconds an image of the battery state displayed.

I didn't know it turns off. I think that maybe you didn't have the charger lined up right on the contacts. When its charging there is a status bar indicating what percentage the charge is up to.

I think the button only turns it on. From what I can tell, it stops charging once the load goes away. When my phone is fully charged, I'll notice that about 10 or so seconds, the indicator that it's still plugged in goes away. If I plug in another device, nothing happens until I push the button on the battery. The same thing happens, device charges and the battery apparently stops supplying power a little bit after the device stops drawing power.

Yes, it does charge while you use it. It will charge regardless of what your doing, just like if you were using your phone while its charging. A standard charger and cable is used in conjunction with this.

No. I takes two times as long to charge your phone with this charger. Mine stopped working all together after 2 weeks. Waste of money.

No,which is very inefficient. Ill be nice if if it would. Overall, it does its funtion of charging my phone.

Yes, the phone charges as long as the base is plugged to a electrical circuit and is in the base.

Yes...as long as the back up case is charged just flip the switch on and it will charge your phone.

Yes, should be. Usually charged my phone while turned off or in airplane mode.

No, the phone does not need to be off, but for quickest charging results, the phone should not be used while charging.

No. In fact if you plug it in to charge while on, it will shut them off to charge.

As far as I know, this can't be used to charge a phone when it's off. For whatever reason, the phone will only charge when its on and in either media transfer or mass storage mode. At least that's how it is with my w518a. If your phone has enough of a charge to be turned on, do it and set it up quickly, and you should get it charging. Otherwise, you'll probably need to use the regular wall charger.

I haven't found that it does, although I don't tend to use the charger to also charge the phone at the same time, as one can. Instead, I simply use the charger to charge an extra battery while I'm using the phone, and carry it around with me. If I have a particularly heavy day, I'll just swap out the battery from the phone and substitute the fully charged battery from the charger, then when I get home, use the charger to recharge the depleted battery.

Yes but only if charging from a wall outlet as soon as its connected to a PC via USB the WiFi turns off.

Yes! I've charged my phone or my iPad while it was plugged into the wall! Just don't forget to push the on button or else it won't charge whatever is plugged into it

It will keep charging your phone until you unplug it. I had my backup completely charged the other night, I left my phone pluged into it and by the morning the backup was drained because it never shut off. Even after my phone was 100% charged.

Yes, same with any electronic device. Always unplug it when it's fully charged.
