1. Turn off the device.
2. Connect it to charge device.
3. Try to switch on N900.
4. Bingo, now you can switch it on only after battery removal.

:P


Am I the one who have experienced this bug?

I've just followed the steps you gave, and I'm unable to reproduce the results you report. My N900 boots in step 3.

I was connected to a laptop via usb and didn't see any issues. How are you trying to switch it on? Press and Hold the power button. If the device is mounted, it will take a few seconds before booting up.

I too have seen that connected to my computer it sometimes refused to turn on. But since this behaviour was erratic and non-reproducable, I did not think of it again.

Removing the USB cable was enough for me.


-------------------
I do have another problem, or problem, oddity. When I connect the usb cable to the phone, sometimes, nothing happens. I disconnect the cable, either on the laptop side or the phone side, and wait a bit and then reconnect it and suddenly the device knows it can charge and starts doing this and asks me in which mode I want to connect.

Does anyone see similar behaviour?
