Thoughts?

blame everyone who couldnt press the end call key. BUT, you should just plug in the phone and not power it on. Once you out the charger on the light will go orage and the charing is behind the scenes (as long as you are not using cwm).

I am aware of both the reasons, and the alternates. With that said, it's less than user friendly. Is it possible to detect charging USB vs USB used for data (sync, storage, adb, etc)? I know that in winmo, when a charger is attached, it doesn't ask to start active sync, usb storage, or internet sharing, only when it is attached to an actual computer.

Also, given that we have physical keyboard devices here, is it possible to use a key on the keyboard rather than the front panel keys? (I haven't looked into this at all)

Sorry, I'll attempt to be more descriptive. I would like for lk to be able to detect the difference between a charger vs a computer, and not attempt fastboot when it's simply attached to a charger. Though, in typing this, given how USB works, that may not be possible. I forget the order of operations with USB negotiation.

No offense, but the tradeoff of being able to reboot normally is worth being cautious when you plug the phone in.

Considering the phone still does reboot at random, and then gets stuck in fastboot every single time... is madness. So long as you've gotten past the flashing stage, this really should never be an issue - either charge the phone when off, or plug it in after the double vibe.

Unless there was some way of figuring out the difference between an AC charger and a USB plug in LK, IMHO the existing way LK works is just fine. It's not perfect, but I don't really see a solution sans what we've both already written .

FYI, this is generally not possible when the phone is dead. Without plugging it in, powering it on, unplugging it, and rebooting (which screws with your battery), there is (depending on just how dead the device is) no way to wait until the double vibe.

Did you miss ACL's post?

With the new LK, you should be able to charge with the device off. So there's no need to turn the device on to charge it...
