Touch Pro stops charging FIXED by no2chem!

No2chem has released nueForceChargeOn 0.1! This program is intended to disable the VERY low temp threshold for the charging cut-off for the battery. As most of us know already, when your TP stops charging, and you check the battery, it's fairly cool. It's the radio that's getting hot (due to tethering, or WiFiRouter, and other radio heavy activity... even just talking while charging!) but not the battery!

EDIT: DISCLAIMER FROM NO2CHEM REGARDING POTENTIAL DANGERS TO DEVICE: "Please note that by disabling the temperature sensor, you run the possibility of damaging your phone or causing physical harm to yourself/others due to an exploding lithium-ion battery." as posted by no2chem.

Finally we can run our WiFiRouter, or tether, or charge while using GPS in our cars, without having the TP decide it's got too hot of a battery to continue to charge.

Please read the disclaimers on the nuerom.com site with regards to this new (and totally needed) software modification.

And for good measure, READ THE WHOLE POST. If you aren't comfortable with what this does, then don't use it.

Here's the link! (For CDMA devices ONLY at the moment)

Thank you no2chem! Everything you come up with is a good idea, and usually a badly needed change.

EDIT: I should've previously mentioned that it's currently available via the donator control panel so that testing is limited enough to not have dozens of Touch Pros with blown batteries.
