    This may shed some light on the issue:

    How to block or allow device's in Symantec Endpoint Protection
    https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/articles/how-block-or-allow-devices-symantec-endpoint-protection

     

    Note: on Windows 2000, XP and 2003 if you disable a USB device with SEP's Device Control then the operating system will power down the device.  Devices such as Androids, iPods, cameras and other types of portable devices will not be able to get charged.  On newer operating systems such as Windows Vista, Windows 7 and 2008 the operating system will allow the devices to receive power even if they are disabled.

     Please update this thread with news if this haas helped!  &: )
