When plugged in, the device will normally show charging. It really depends on what the USB side is plugged into. Some devices may not provide enough power to charge the phone. But normally it will show the charging signal while in use. I bought this for use in a car, and it will charge while synced to the stereo receiver.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, it can. You just need to plug your micro USB charging cable into the side port of the adapter. This does two things, it powers the unit to send the signal to the device receiving it, and it will still trickle charge the smartphone. Although, this may vary depending on what you running on the phone. Videos and apps draw a lot of power - especially if it is streaming video, and may use more power than the adapter can provide.
I would recommend:

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it does charge but it is best use have your device charged beforehand and as a side note you can only use a Samsung charger
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I was told that it should do that since there is a separate micro usb port that looks like it could do both. When I tried, the device did not appear to be charging but may have only been using more juice in transmitting to the TV then receiving from the plugin. My perception was it was not charging by also plugging in with USB connection to an AC plug.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Not quite sure about this but I would think that you wouldn't be able to while you are watching tv because one port gets plugged into your phone and the other port gets plugged into the HDMI cord which is plugged into your tv
