My diamond wakes up - no reason

My diamond wakes up on random intervals without any obvious reason. It is just laying on the table and all of a suddent the screen wakes up. I press the power button ot sleep it again and in a few secounds it happens again. After that is might stay sleeing for hour or two, then it wakes again. It is annoying because I don't currently use any lock, and if it wakes up while in my pocket, I start dialing people and starting programs.
Any clue ?
P.S. I have made 2-3 ROM replacements in the past. First I did some custom ROMS, but now I am using the official one from HTC.com.

Wake up...
Sounds like some third party software is causing this. Search the forum because I remember someone posting this very same issue. May be there is an answer to your question here already?

I'm recently experiencing the same problem! Although wake up on new sms is turned off the phone wakes up when a new message comes in and a few times it just wakes up for no reason?! ive never had this problem before and installed no new third party software so what could it be?

I was having exactly the same issue after upgrading my Htc Touch Diamond's rom to the recent official rom. Untill now !
I just figured out that my phone frequently wakes up due to the cell broadcast messages received from the channel 050 (location info) which is regularly updated by the network provider.
And I just unchecked the location info (city/district name) channel code (050), and the problem is solved. !
to turn it off:
Start menu - settings - phone - More - Broadcast Channels - Settings -
uncheck 050.

PPC PimBackUp
I have PPC PimBackUp scheduled for midnight backing up of SMS, speed dials, etc.... it turns on the screen as expected, but there isn't any window/progress bar showing the program is backing up stuff. Got me the first time around.. not sure if that could be the case for some...
And not sure if I read about this somewhere.. try disabling "Today timeout: x hr" in settings > personal > today > items

Mine does this too.
Only started recently and not installed any new apps prior to it happening.
Broadcasting isnt enabled anyway on mine.
Just turned off the today timeout to see if that helps....

Clock always changing time randomly

Hey All, I've have recently flashed Touch-it V4 to my Xperia, but now the clock keeps on randomly changing the time on me. Usually puts it out by an hour, or sometimes 15mins. I've tried putting day light savings time on, selecting my city etc but still randomly changes the time on me.
Also noticed if I set my country, it will randomly change itself as well. Eg. set it to New Zealand, then go back and check and it will be on Fiji??
Anyone know how to fix this?
Is super annoying as messes up my alarms & appointments, nearly missed my flight the other day.
Cheers

Same problem here. Seems to be a TF3D bug. It doesn't seem to recognize daylight savings time. It keeps switching me to the "Bogota, Lima" timezone which is 1 hour behind my real timezone of Eastern Standard (US).
I'll have to use a different panel for now to keep my schedule/alarm on time, probably the SPB Mobile Shell.
Alternatively I could just use "Bogota, Lima" time and set it 1 hour ahead, but then every time I sync the phone, the time will be reset to 1 hour behind and throw my calendars off.

Yea is a right pain, fiddled round with it so much but still can't get it to work

uGo check your iGo?
I had that problem and found it was iGo set to an incorrect time zone, so each time I started the program it changed the time.

I had this problem, it was so anoying with syncing
go to the "settings">select "phone">select the "time zone" tab, and untick automaticly change timezone or whatever.
I have a htc diamond, but should be similar/same as they both WM

try ticking the check mark...it worked for mee and then soft reset

I'm fairly certain it's a TF3D bug and whether or not that option is ticked won't make a difference. If you live in a time zone where they observe daylight savings, touching the time on the TF3D home tab will change your time zone to one that's 1 hour behind. If you go back into your clock settings and set it to the correct time zone, it'll be ok until the next time you press the clock in TF3D.
So the short term solution is to never press the time =)

SMS timestamp too
I'm using Touch-It 4.0 II.
I'm also experiencing my time shifting by an hour and that my system clock and alarm settings keeps resetting itself back to Bogota, Lima.
Also, my incoming text messages' timestamp is now always 5 hrs in the past.
Is the clock setting from Touchflo 3D supposed to be aligned with the system clock and alarm settings?

Got the same problem before. Able to fix it by making sure the time settings on my computer where i actively sync my phone are the same. That is time, date, time zone, and if DST settings are checked or not.

Is def a problem with touchflow, flashed generic rom back & now phone is working fine again

+1 on this...

Time zone
I read somewhere that the reason text messages were coming in 5 hrs off was that the Rogers tower was doing its own 5 hr timezone offset on the messages so I ended up getting messages with a timestamp of 5 hrs ago. But I never experienced this problem on my Vox so I don't know. I haven't tried to reflash my ROM to a generic and receive text messages either.
Did anyone else notice this SMS timestamp problem only after flashing to a touchflo 3d rom?

Anyone know if this is fixed in touchflow ver 5? Never had the problem with v3

try not to run any navigation apps..i found out my garmin always changing my time every timr i start the apps..

I ad the same problem
In settings of my navigation (Polish AutoMapa) i can turn off synchronization of my time with gps. (sry 4 my english)

Xperia doesn't turn off Backlight sporadically

Hi @all,
i hope you can help me with my issue.
I searched very long here and at google, but i didn't find any solution for this.
My xperia is set to "turn off unit after 1 Min", and no dimming light.
Now it is so, that in 49 of 50 cases is works probably, but in 1 case, te display doesn't turn off.
Backlight runs and runs and runs, till i turn unit off manually.
When problem starts, only a softresets helps to turn it back to normal
proberties.
I didn't install any Tf3D, oder any other profil programm.
Can someone help me please?
ps, sorry for my bad english, once i was very good, but i didn't speak it very long time.
Thanks

Are there any programs which is running? any cables which are connected while it happens?

No, sometimes it happens while phoning (then it dimms, but it doesn't turn off), then sometimes after looking for Messages, then sometimes after syncing. I can't repeat this issue. I even don't know why it happens ?
Is there something i can look in the registry?
Only thin i installed is
Calender+,
Task+,
SPB Insight,
Clifford Xperia Tweak (only thin is i switched off the Threaded SMS Look),
SPB Wallet,
Sprite backup
The Rest i run from SD Card, which was pre-installed from my old unit (Kaiser).
I put it out from Kaiser, then put in in Xperia, then i rebuild the links to programm folder.
so i saved the install Progress.

You said while phoning the light dims but it doesn't turn off. perhaps 1 of your config is set to "do not turn off screen while phoning"

You mean in Xperia Tweaks?
Sorry, no it isn't set so. I wonder because i used google and searched in all languages, and no one ever had this problem ?
Is tere any Key in registry what helps you to see, what can be the problem?

I had have this problem only when i tried an new Program like SPB Shell or something like this. Some programs are disabling the option for automatic turn off in the energy management. reenabling it fixed it evertime.
Another strange issue with my X1: every night an midnight it turns on - and after 1 minute (0:01 o'clock) it turns off. oO

But i have not installed SPB Shell, other Programms that do this?

How to disable auto turn-on when connecting usb-cable?

Hi!
Is it possible to disable automatic turn-on of the TD2 when I connect the usb-cable?
Background: I'm using the TD2 on my bike with a dynamoo-charger. Everytime the charger begins to charge ~17km/h my TD2 turns on and I have to turn it off by hand. That is not very comfotable ... ;-)
I hope someone here as a suggestion to solve this little problem.
Greets,
geordy

I would suggest a profile manager such as G-Profile.
You can configure your power settings for time of day, cell tower location, etc.
I know I have seen this option in one of the configuration apps but couldn't find it in Advanced Config or TD2 Tools.
I also searched the registry and was not able to find anything for power except in my G-Profile registry.

This ist not the answer wanted ;-)
I bought G-Profile a while ago but last version I tried drained my battery in one night.
Will try an actual version.
Thank you!

Clock Issue with Energy rom

The issue im speaking of is the actual home screen clock. Every morning I have to re set it because it ends up becoming off by a few hours. I searched this forum and couldnt find anything. I had also posted the question in the Energy rom thread, but it kept getting swamped out by random question. Im running a tilt 2 FYI.
Any help appreciated, thanx

Did you set your time zone? Did you turn on or off internet time sync? Did you uncheck get time from network under phone settings? Any of these could be the cause of your problems...

Im feeling really dumb this morning...My alarm didnt go off this morning because of this same problem. And I cant for the life of me figure out hwo to make sure the clock is auto updating to the network.
Im running Energy Cookie Reference. I have seen the settings before...but cant locate them today.

Time synchronization?
Hi.
Do you have the automatic time synchronization on? Try to disable it.
Settings -> Personal -> Phone ->
or
Sense settings tab -> data services -> internet time sync ->

Hey thanks for the response...my settings are different though. I found the setting in BSB Tweaks and turned it off...only time will tell if it helps though...we will see if my phone fails to wake me up again tomorrow...

Left Energy yet again because of this issue...I dont know a whole lot about the technicalities but it seemed to me that the phone is 'going to sleep' and actually losing track of the time thus keeping my alarm from sounding in the mornings.
When I hit the power button to wake the screen up in the mornings it would be displaying a time that was hours behind and seemingly random (what lead me to believe the phone was in a deeper sleep than normal). Possibly a really stupid theory...but like I said I dont know a whole lot. I just know it was way unacceptable in my case.
I will still monitor his threads like always and try the latest and greatest ROMS.

Clock Issue with Energy romArrow
I think the problem you are having is the windows alarm bug. I used to get this all the time until i started using g-alarm. it fixes the issue when you first install it. (note that its a paid app.) but here is the description and the registry edit that you need to change to fix the problem.
can't post the link soo you will need to copy and paste the url below if you want to view the webpage.

Windows alarm bug
Windows Mobile has on some devices a strange behaviour: Although an alarm is successfully added to the WM notification queue (it's like a scheduler) it doesn't go off.
Searching the web gave me following information:
At midnight WM rebuilds the notification queue, therefore it wakes up for about 15 seconds. If the notification queue is too big or the device too slow WM goes to sleep again before it could finish building the queue for the next day.
If you force WM too stay awake for a longer time, it should successfully build the queue on at least more devices.
If you start G-Alarm and it complains about the Windows alarm bug, you've got the default WM settings (15 seconds WakeUpTime). If you press "Yes" G-Alarm changes it to 120 seconds which should be enough.
Here are the registry values G-Alarm changes:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\Timeouts\ACResumingSuspendTimeout
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\Timeouts\BattResumingSuspendTimeout
