Hmm, sounds interesting that. In a sense, another way to reset the phone if problems arise, though probably annoying to others. Not that it matters now seeing that the issue has been patched.
This is one of the more bizarre bugs we’ve ever heard. The T-Mobile G1 has an open root shell that interprets everything you type as a command. It was discovered when a user just happened to type the word ‘reboot’ in a conversation and the phone immediately rebooted. A patch has already been rolled out to fix this issue. It also buttons up the earlier telnetd SUID problem.
