Keyboard doesn't charge my phone no matter what, so can I charge my phone directly
#1
I got my PP keyboard when they first launched and within about 2 months it stopped charging my phone. I've shimmed it, changed kernels, changed OS's and did all the troubleshooting steps found on Megis website and the only conclusion I can come up with is that the charging chip is fried. 

I can check the keyboard battery with UPower and it shows 100% but no matter how good/bad of a charger I connect to it, the power never gets to my phone. The good news is, I can type on it though. 

So my question is, since there is no working connection to the charging chip, would it be safe to charge the phone directly while it is connected to the keyboard?
