Ok, there IS something strange.
I assumed it was a coincidence, maybe the otg adapter I use is cheap (yes) and fragile (maybe) - and that is why my it is not showing in /dev/input anymore, not consistently.
Maybe even that diags fried it, etc.

So I tried my other otg adaptor, and it's exact the same problem.

I'm very certain this can only be because of when it went into diags...
because before it was flawless and perfect.

Huh, I rebooted whilst keeping the usb in, and not rmmod'ing hid and usbhid - I'm back in diags. I guess that is how I got here.

Whilst in diags, I did the hallsensor test (it checks if the cover is closed, to see if the device will sleep ok).
I am pretty sure last time I did it, and from the text on the screen, the LED was OFF, until the cover got close.
But this time, the led blinks every 3 seconds or so... even when there is no cover attached.
