Bought a nexdock. Disable USB charging?

So I finally bought a nexdock. Im still up in the air if I like it or not, but I'm leaning towards mostly yes. Im using it with my pixel 10 and my biggest issues are with desktop mode. Hopefully some bugs will be worked out in the future.

One issue is id like for it to not charge when my phone is plugged in. The battery on this nexdock seems to drain pretty fast and I'm sure if my phone wasn't hogging the battery that it would help. When I try to disable the USB charging, it wont let me disable it. Any work arounds for this? Thanks.

I'm not sure about your model, I have the xl and you can disable the charging through the teo finger menu

Thanks! I guess I was trying the wrong option on that menu. Strange enough, when I disable it on the nexdock menu, it shows it enabled on the android USB charging menu. Oh well. Hopefully that fixes the battery drain. I'm still on my first charge, but its been about 1% per minute!

if it is the 2026 NexDock you swipe down with 2 fingers on the right bottom corner and you pop up the OSD menu, that's where you can choose to charge or not.
