Yeah it's true for MOST phones. All but 2 of my phones will charge with their data cable.
Yes, but i prefer the standard charger coz its faster, but as i cant deactivate that option, it continues charging every time i transfer files using it...
yes you can like the others said but it depends on your fone and data cable most sony ericsson can but not all just plug yours in and try it
i can with my samsung u600
hmmm, not all, but some, so yh, tht is posible,

Yes, when you plug your cellphone in the USB port of your computer it will charge.
Yes, I know mine does. But it takes considerably longer.
