TyTN II waking randomly

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:

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):

Backlight turns on randomly

Does anyone else have this happening my screen will randomly turn on after i press the button on the top to turn it off? it is very annoying at night it makes me think i have an incoming call or text message and being that Im on call 24x7 sometimes have to check it everytime it happenes which is about ever 10 to 15 minutes????
I searched on here already and couldnt find anything?????
any help?????

yes, that's probably normal behaviour, since the SCREENN-OFF button also works as SCREEN-ON button, whatever necessary...
but my screen doesn't turn on randomly...
my tip: just put your device in a thick wool sock and put it face down on your desk ;-)...
another possibility is, that if you charge it over night and the plug isn't fitting right then the screen may turn off because it constantly thinks it's plugged in and out...
Best Luck and nice dreams
Regards

not only when plugged in
actually it doesnt only happen when the phone is plugged in it happenes all the time

mine does it too upon occasion. i think it has to do woth background processes running, or your phone is roaming for alternative towers.

mine does it too. I have the Sprint CDMA version. Someone on a different forum thought it might be the phone looking for a signal. But no one was really sure. Haven't been able to find much useful info on it anywhere.

it's switching towers...my Mogul did it too.

is there any way to make it stop

In some of the aboce cases it can be that someone is trying to make a video call to you while Phone skin is disabled.

I also have this problem. My screen will turn on from time to time without any obvious reason. It's especially annoying at night... I have my phone in a cradle on my nightstand, so when the screen comes on the whole room lights up! I've resorted to keeping a shirt over it at night.
I tried setting the phone to 100% roaming since my Sprint signal is low in my apartment and I read somewhere that the phone will turn on when it switches towers/service, but alas it did not help me.
ANY IDEAS FOR A FIX?

Diamond keeps "waking"

My phone is constantly waking up when not in use. There is no obvious activity that i see, such as email,SMS etc. I was told possibly when the signal or towers change it wakes up?
All i know is im at work and the darn phone keeps lighting up. Im driving at night and it's lighting up. it's in my pocket and im dialing my last call! This is also killing my batteries!
Is anyone having this problem?? Can this be fixed?? registry tweak?? Im so angry with this phone because of this. otherwise i really like this phone.
Thanks.

I had the problem of dialing when in my pocket... and a slightly different error with the lights.. the ones around the dial just won't switch off even when all the messages and alerts are cleared.
I've found that if you lock the screen so that you can only use the power button, it solves this as it's easy to unlock the phone from ur pocket (I've had it in a jacket pocket and it's done it!)
Should solve it!...
As for the lighting up... have you tried adjusting the power options for optimum battery as this solved the same issue on my Touch Cruise.

you can use TouchLockPro for preventing bogus calls. Are you sure it does not awake on buton presses, a windows mobile setting.

wake up woes
Same issue here. It seems the CDMA Sprint Diamond wakes up on new SMS or when switching cell towers and there is no way to disable that regardless of what ROM you're using. It's ridiculous... and it is my only major problem with the phone. Hopefully someone will find a better solution. Until then Locking the phone will have to suffice.

ive been using the lock feature. the only thing is it often gets "stuck" in lock mode. i will turn on the phone the backlight would be dim - like in lock mode. i can use the phone but it wont come out of the "dim" mode until i take out the battery and put it back in.
separately,
I wonder if i was using the diamond phone from another provider if i would have the same "waking" problems?

I have the same problem. The phone wakes up all the time by itself. It is a problem with the defective power buttons that come on the Diamonds. No fix for that so far that I know of. It is a hardware problem, I think.

Mine wakes up when switching between home and roaming towers. Not sure about switching home to home towers or roaming to roaming. I also had my power button being bumped on from time to time; I'd take out my phone to find it had tried to dial someone, adjust the clock, etc. Very annoying.
Pocket Shield is amazing; it's the only lock app I can find that does what my Treo's always did: unlock on center button.
Works wonderfully well!

Before I upgrade my 1.93 CSL ROM to the 2.0x CSL ROM, it also always woke up itself...
After I upgarded my ROM (i.e. a hard reset) problem gone... So I think that's not a hardware problem...
Yet at this moment I'm still unclear which program caused that problem...

I've been using the locking program S2U2 which is free and it works beautifully.

[Q] Wifi and Bluetooth under XDAndroid

Since Sprint is going to try and screw me big time if I get a new phone, I've decided to see what new life I could put into my old Touch Diamond (DIA500). I installed XDAndroid FRX05, and it seems to be working really well, with a few exceptions. One of the first things I tried was to enable Bluetooth. What happens is that it enables, but about 4 seconds after being enabled, it says it's shutting down, then it starts back up, and shuts down. It keeps doing this forever, until I turn it off. Now that I tried Wifi, it does the exact same thing. I've rebooted a few times, and took the battery out once, but still nothing. I've since installed a battery-saving program, but this happened on a fresh install.
The next issue is with the backlight. If I try and change the brightness, it changes for a second, then goes back to the brightness it was. It does this whether I turn the brightness up or down. It's not set to auto.
The third issue is the GPS. It works, but seems to take a long time to get a lock. Under WM, I'd have some kind of location within seconds, even inside. I'm guessing it was using the phone network to speed things up. Under android, it takes a few minutes sometimes, and it's worse inside.
I also had a nightmare calibrating the screen. It's still a little off, but it works. Does anyone know a screen calibration program that would work?
Any ideas?
Thanks!

To solve the brightness problem. Boot WinMo and turn off auto brightness there. That will solve that problem.

Thanks for share you knowledge here DA01

Sleep mode

Guys, what is this? Anyone know how it works? There is limited info on HTC's site.
Does it only shut off the mobile data? Will I stop receiving email when it kicks on? What turns it off? Unlocking the screen, or does it read the accelerometer?
Anyone know? It was on by default. Phone seems fine, but I don't want to stop receiving email whenever my phone sits for a while.

YES???
No really when you phone sits for longs periods without use it will turn off mobile data wifi etc... Once you turn on the screen it will turn everything back on. This is the new smart dormant mode or night mode for HTC. I hope imagine its has some type of adaptive algorithm that will know when to conserve power and when not too but I'm sure I'm reaching too far.

I'm not sure if it has a smart algorithm...from what I've felt is simply turns off the data connection around half an hour after I turn my screen off. So far though it hasn't affected my use of the phone though I guess the real difference should come when you sleep at night.
