In fact, I just rooted my bitch and ran dmesg under several scenarios:
unplugged
plugged into USB on computer
plugged into HTC stock USB to AC charger
plugged into Plantronics AC charger
Plugged into HTC stock USB to AC charger from TouchPro
The Android clearly runs a process to identify the manufacturer of the charger:
"Get USB ID PIN, mfg_df_serialno: 0000000000, usb_switch_dummy_serial_num_by_GPIO,usb_id_pin_gpi o 37
usb: mfg_USB_ID_pin_status: 1, ID_Pin 1:1,usb_switch_dummy_serial_num_by_GPIO
usb: suspend
usb: not AC charger."
But when the stock charger is plugged in:
"usb: AC charger"
It even instructs it to slow charge under certain circumstances.
Please. Someone hack the crap out of this.

I got it!
so i too was having the same problem, i was like "wft?! thats such an apple move HTC, and apple doesnt even do that..." so i i was just messing around (while playing CODMW2), and turned my phone off just to soft reset it. and thought "lets see if it really does charge while the phone is off". (and it worked) so after about 15 mins of charging while the phone was off, i turned my phone back on bc i didnt want to miss any calls. i kept the plug in, and to my surprise, after the phone turned on, it continued to charge! so i thought, to keep it charging with the after market charger, just turn it off and then back on again and there you go! but i unplugged it, and plugged it back in and it still charged! and so far it works with that charger without having to power down and power back up! and it still works with the OEM charger! problem solved!....? someone else try it and see if it work...
also, this seems kinda long winded, but im kinda drunk right now... YAY!
