I had my BA suspended in the pocket near a school yesterday, and suddenly it warned me about having found a new WiFi network. And it was suspended! I'm 100 % sure, since I don't have any software that can turn off the screen and leave the unit running. When I took it up from the pocket, it was on (and that didn't happen by accident either, since I have locked all buttons except for the power button, and I had just put it in the pocket from the passive car holder, where it wasn't on either).
This is with the WiFi fix, that I really like since I almost always need the WiFi when I turn on the unit. But what the heck's going on?
turn off wi-fi and reset
It happened the same to me after the wi-fi fix. I believe you can get rid of this automatic wake up if you turn off wi-fi and reset after 10 seconds.
cheers
fucsia
Thanks! So that will only turn it off temporarily? Most of the time I want WiFi to come on when I turn on the BA.

When the BA's connecting to the WiFi, it almost locks up. I don't think that it was so bad under WM2003. Is it possible to lower the priority of that, or something? Overclocking doesn't change anything, btw.
For the life of me I cant Work out what you mean.
MY BA under WM5 works fine under wifi (untill it goes into suspend mode and I have to turn the wifi on and off).
What I have noticed with Hackmaster is that the IE takes a lot of CPU usage. Never noticed a lock up.
Maybe he means when wifi is connecting it slows the BA down so much it appers to have locked up. On mine it does seem to lock up but only for a second or two. I do use Pocket Hackmaster though.
Exactly. When WiFi's connecting, everything stops. And I too use PHM to overclock.
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):

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?

Anywho, yes, suspending (power button) will turn off the built-in GPS, and I think even bluetooth GPS. TrackMe will just turn off the screen, the phone itself stays on, and it'll keep tracking as long as the phone doesn't turn itself off.
I use PhoneAlarm to set the suspend time to disabled, turns up the backlight, turns up notifications, and runs TrackMe in a "GPS Tracking" profile, so I just change profiles and go.
I suppose more GPS Tracking programs are not a bad idea, just... eh.. Duplication I guess.
So I am having relentless problems with Bluetooth and phone waking up, first issue Bluetooth randomly drops when connected to car during a call, secondly when phone is connected signal won't refresh when it is in sleep mode, instantly when you wake up phone signal comes on, also when I click a phone number link in messages dialer comes up but number not there, do it again then number appears, ok Google has to be said twice to get speech recognition to open and when I'm connected to my smartwatch any notifications mostly don't appear till bluetooth is toggled on and off or phone is restarted, seems to me like some sort of wake up lag and Bluetooth issue, trying here for any solution before I get rid of phone, never experienced such problems before, ps honour 10 also had horrible Bluetooth issues. Any fix for this?
I guess it's probably connected to Huawei's horrible battery saving mode(s). From experience it will shut down so many things as soon as the phone goes to sleep. Did you try fiddling around with the battery saving settings?
