Hi, my phones screen keeps turning on in the middles of the night and just stays on as it is in the charger.
I dont want to change the settings, but I want to know what is causing my screen to turn on.
Is there some sort of logger that I can look at later the next day and see what activated my phone out of sleep mode?
Thanks
my diamond comes on every night at midnight. Been wondering the same
my vogue and diamond do the same
Wasnt this a problem touchflo (tf3d) ? Try doing a search... someone else has this problem before, for sure.
i think its start>settings>today>items tab > uncheck today timeout

Hey everyone
Has anyone else noticed that their TyTN II wakes from standby when switching between GPRS and 3G. At least I think this is why mine appears to wake up randomly! It will be sat on my desk in standby mode and then the screen will switch on and the signal strength bars will move.
I've checked to make sure nothing is running in the background and performed a soft reboot.
Any ideas?
Hi
The Kaiser does turn on at least once every hour (some house keeping tasks), and will turn on if the mobile signal is lost. However these on's are in unattended mode which means the device appears off to the owner so the screen will not come on.
If you have some software that likes to do work or updates the today page for example, that software may be detecting the device has turned on and in order to get your attention or just through bad programming, issues a power announcement to say turn on proper, hence the display lights up!
Regards
Phil
Thanks for the info, I'll have a look what I have on there and try and isolate what is causing the power ups.
Cheers for the help.
If you have sprite backup installed with the auto backup on low power option that causes occasional power ups to enable the power check.
I may have solved this issue. After uninstalling enAlarm the phone, no longer appears to be waking. I'm still monitoring it though
i have the same problem when im signed on to AIM. Once i sign off it stops waking up, but if its on it'll wake up every 5 minutes or so, and it is in fact annoying. Havent found out the solution for it yet so i just dont really use it that often

it's when a friend log's in or out of AIM.. it's a paint, rediculious and ATT refuses to get rid of OZ messanger and use a real one.
here's the kicker. it supposed to use TEXT , but when a friend logs in or out, the message is sent to your phone, and then DATA brings up the list..
STUPID and ignorant of ATT but,. big companies do what they want!
I have been having the same problem as well. I just installed this DeviceLock program:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=305402
If you enable the "Lock on Wake" option, the device will be locked when it wakes up, so the backlight stays off and you won't call anyone by accidentally hitting buttons.
Also, I ran across this related thread you might want to check out (basically talking about the same thing, but for the Tilt):

Hi all, whenever my Kaiser goes to sleep and I turn it back on, it closes whatever app was up, and presents the Today screen.
I am sure I saw a setting to prevent this but cannot find it any more in Advanced Config or Kaiser Tweak.
Anyone know how to make it come out of standby showing the same screen it entered standby with?
Today timeout....... under settings?
No that's something different to what I described.
I was thinking the same thing as grizzley. Can you describe a little more on how it is different than what you described?
My Tilt always comes out of standby to whatever program was running when it went into standby.
That's it really, mine doesn't. E.g. I'm in Calendar, and the device automatically goes into standby after 2 mins. I press the power button and it instantly wakes up, closes calendar, and shows the home screen.
I have seen this option in BatteryStatus but it doesn't have any effect if I tick or untick it.
Yes, I see.
There is also the "Today timeout" setting under Settings>Personal>Today>Items, but I do not think this will help you either.
The only other thing I can think of is maybe you have a Today plug-in that has some sort of "timeout" feature?
Actually, I also have a vague recollection of a setting (maybe in SKTools) that might have been something like "Today screen on resume." But I might be imagining this; I will do a little investigating.
Sorry I can not be more helpful.
Don't know if anyone has exerienced this but, everytime I turn the screen on the device shows the today screen, no matter what it's running. Not a big deal, but I used to turn off the screen for a few seconds when I wanted to take pictures in low light conditios and I can't do that anymore
It all began when I configured my exchange account and had to install Zenyee's Stayunlocked to avoid having to enter a password every 5 min (due to my company's security policies).
Anyone else has this problem?
thanks in advance

nope
nope. I already tried different settings there and it didn't change. I just noticed another funny thing. the screen turns on alone for a moment five seconds after I turn it off. but this only happens if I'm using the camera. Isn't it weird? It just flashes and turns off again....
any suggestions?
Anyone else has something to add to this issue? Has anybody else used zenyee Stayunlocked in a Kaiser?
thanks
Do you have Batterystatus installed? There is an option in the tool-tab:
"Show Today-Screen on WakeUp" Check if checked.

Hi guys,
does anybody know an application for the Diamond, that keeps the light on for certain programms? I´ve got the prob, that I´m using many Nav-Software on my Diamond. But the only programm that can keep the light on and prevent the Diamond getting into "sleep-mode" ist TomTom.
Now I´m searching for a programm, where you can for example click checkoboxes for certain installed programms where you don´t won´t that the light goes of.
It would be fantastic if there is anything like this software for my diamond.
To understand my probs. I´m using my Diamond for a flight navigation software an for me it is a huge problem when the light goes of during a traffic pattern before the landing
Thanks

Go to Settings => Power.
There you'll find Yoda... err sorry, screen power off settings. Disable every power saving measure you find there and your screen will stay on.
Yes I know.
But to disable power saving does not solve my problem. Because then the phone stays on. For ever. And when I quit my application, the light stays on.
So I´m searching for a program that keeps the light on during an application. And when I quit the application it should go in "normal" power saving mode.
I´ve tested a little bit the last days but when I leave my phone in the kitchen and had the energy saving off, the phone stays on after a missed call and so the battery is empty on that evening.
So not a good idea.
Any others?

Hi,
it's hard to believe no one asked this before but I could not found anything about this..
My Diamond (as probably every wm phone) wakes up at midnight.. but because I'm loading the battery over night it does not switch off the display completely but stays dimmed until i switch it off manally.. because it lays right next to my bed I really hate it doing that.
So is there a possibility to switch the display completly off during loading? I have the windows configuration the way that it should switch off the display after 1min in ac-mode.
Thanks in advance,
Michael

I'm having the exact same issue with my HTC FUZE.Wakes up, then stays in a dimmed mode until I put it back to sleep. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

The phone settings are set for backlight off after 1 minute (on external power). Once the phone wakes up, it stays on (in a dim mode) until I physically press the power button to put it back in the standby mode.
Why does it wake up at midnight?
Is it because you have installed a program that restarts it automatically?
i've noticed my diamond wakes up at midnight, feels like it doesn't go off, but does after a few minutes, all the buttons light up as well as if i a txt is about to come on, but the screen come on, i've only noticed it as i've been up late recently and i have the diamond on front of me on hy desk, my old orbit phone (which i keep meaning to sell) doesn't do it, so i can't see it being a wm bug
Weird.. My Diamond doesnt wake up at midnight

Do you (or in the past) have G-Alarm installed. This fixes a windows alarm clock bug. It switches on at midnight to do some sort of maintenance. I have found my phone no longer stays on as you describe, but I always run the latest version of g-alarm
BTW - get your orbit on ebay. I did a buy it now auction and got £150 for my Orbit a few months ago
No More Issues
I have since flashed my ROM to the NATF 4.5 and I have no more issues with the phone coming on at midnight.
Mine used to do that too, the screen would come on and the clock also switches back to the big clock which I hate. After installing galarm it went away but the clock still switches to the big clock and I have to switch it back every morning.
My Topaz also wakes up at midnight and it feels like it won´t shut off! How long should this session last to reorganize all the things? G-Alarm is installed and since then I had this issue.
I could deactivate the midnight wakeup, but I don´t think this is recommend!? Is it?
