I'm confused as to why people don't understand what you are saying.
WHAT A TRIP... that is FUNNY! but also serious... thats a total drain on power (ever done tethering with USB charging off... a good example as well of the energy being consumed by the speed the battery dies)

Hopefully I can make this simple for those still confused, but it only works if you have the HTC charger that has the backlit HTC logo built into the charger!!!:

1: Take HTC Charger in one hand
2: TP2 with Android running in the other
3: Plug in the USB charging/data cable between the 2 *
4: Notice the HTC backlit logo being lit up
5: Realize that the charger isnt plugged into the wall, BUT the logo is STILL LIT UP!!!**

This most definitely could cause a few things: Inability/problems to charging, Inability to exchange data (whats that jim? data is power!? -google it), and of course, Terrible Battery life!!!



*No, you dont have to set one down to do this unless you have really small hands... or are terrible with your hands... in which case why do you have a TP2 with the keyboard for your terrible hands... (coordination anyone?)
**IE power is flowing from the TP2 to the Charger (Phone ---> Charger) instead of the way its supposed to go, which is from the Charger TO the TP2 (Phone <--- Charger)...



If that doesn't help the confusion... then i guess a video with extra... "special" care taken to "explain" is needed... or a bat...
