[Q] Charging while powered off

Has anyone managed to charge their HD7 while it's powered off?

As soon as I plug in power mine boots up and if I try to shut it down while charging it boots up again.

Well all my HTC devices did it. HD2, TD2, Orbit, Orbit 2 and so on so on.

It is not an issue, software is controlling charge.

I just pluged in my HD2 and it boots up ASAP. If I switch it off it stops charging until I boot it up.

I'm finding this issue really anoying, i like to charge during the night whilst my phone is switched off just like i did with my HD2 every night! Really needs sorting.

Just turn on airplane mode and put it on silent.

I discovered last night that the HD7 won't take charge via USB from a powered-down PC. I know the ports are still powered while the PC is off, as my Touch Pro used to take charge overnight.

Wondering if this is a hardware or software issue -- or some weird anomaly of Micro USB vs Mini USB.
