do any of you have a problem when charging your phone that the touch pad gets wonky? Or if the screen is locked you can't unlock it while plugged in? What about when you plug it in while it is already unlocked and it "presses" apps and goes nuts?

I noticed over time this has gotten worse. When I got this phone they did not give me a Motorola charger,they told me to use my Samsung Charge charger. At work I have an aftermarket one. The Samsung one is ok, but the one at work makes my phone go nuts! Yes I am going to get a Motorola charger, but i wanted to know what you guys experienced first.

thanks
 
Thanks all for your replies (I always see the replies in my email on my phone but the app never alerts me so i get lazy to reply).

My car Charger is a Motorola and the screen doesn't work. As of right now, my Samsung Charge charger is the only one that works. (I have to use that since they didn't give me a charger with the CLN).

I have a Droid 3 desktop charger that I use at work, so I don't have issues with this phone. When I had the D1, though, I bought an aftermarket charger and the phone went wild. Turned off and on, screens flashed, apps started and ended. It'd vibrate, play sounds and do all sorts of wonky stuff. It was bizarre. I returned it, got the Motorola one, and it was fine.
