Quoting Doug Goldstein <cardoe@xxxxxxxxxx>:
FWIW, if someone needs a device to test a potential patch with just take any rooted Android phone. e.g. an HTC at the HBOOT menu presents itself as a different product ID than when the phone is normally booted. You can also do this with an iPhone, just hold down the power and the home button to boot it into a "recovery" mode where it'll have a different product ID than normal.
Okay, thanks; so now I know that it's not just badly designed hardware that may do this. My device, however, is not a smart-phone or some other consumer device: it's a scanner with a rotating drum on which to mount flexible, reusable photographic plates from an X-ray machine. It's rather expensive too. Of course, it only works with a Windows application. Can you imagine a legitimate reason why a machine like this might keep flipping its product ID?
