Jump to Best Response

Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to disable the controller charging when it is plugged to my smartphone. When my stadia controller is plugged it use my phone's battery to charge itself.

Hi @Lorwon1, thanks for posting this. In order to achieve the effect you want, there are some options, but know that it is inconsistent across different devices and cables.

  1. Try swapping the ends of the USB-C cable -- some users have reported that this resolves the issue
  2. Try a different USB-C cable
  3. Play wirelessly on your device if the above do not work for you

Let me know if I can help further.
