aramburuyy,
The secondary, or non pulsing non-BME charge mode is fine to use, the phone will charge to full and then stop the charge. I don't remember if the orange light turns off or turns green at full charge. Your BL-5J battery also has over-volt and overcharge protection circuitry in addition to the N900. The reading after your restart BME will read all over the place for a bit, much like after using USB host mode, but it will settle down after a while.
I am waiting to get Pali's BME replacement correctly installed, that might work better than this solution in that the data pin shorting wouldn't be required but the N900 (pali)BME would stay on allowing normal charge monitoring.
