I think that if the device is left to errorneus state without re-trying, it shows up to user very annoying. For example: My mouse now has the problem with buttons: if i click left button -> nothing may happen, and it is not functioning until right button is pressed once. I make adaption to divide the timeout by 100, and keep the try-loop in core.
