Helly everybody, I love my htc, and I found the cure to the 100% awake time. I tested each app out myself, and checked the usage and it happens to be voicemail. Well what do you do from here, well it seems sprint has already fixed the issue, you just need to open the voicemail app, and go to setting, then download the new update, that fixes it so the phone doesnt stay awake non stop, before I dled that update my phone was at 100%, not good, but after I sit at around 18%, which is correct for my usage today. So hop on in the app, and fix your problem, It doent make the battery life a whole new world, but instead of being at 20% at the end of the day, I hit around 45%, so it does help. Also get a task killer, and kill those pesky non used tasks :P
Peace, Derek

have you restarted since then? get advanced task killer, and kill all apps, do a restart and go right to settings to the awake time, hit the red power button to turn screen off, then wait about a minute, and turn back on to see if its fixed, if not then im not sure, that is what fixed mine

I leave email, and messages on, one thing I did do, is I completly reset my phone, cause my wifi stopped working, after backing up my contacts of course, then I did the VM update, and it seemed fine after that, I have a crap load of apps on there, and it still goes to sleep, I do not know what may be causing yours, VM seemed like it was the big prob for me

We'll figure it out. I'll keep hashing it out over here and you do the same maybe we'll help somebody else out, But can you check your VM version for me.So you kill everything else? Thanks

I know this sounds stupid but how do you reset you phone incase i ever mess something up and need to do that.
Also what does resetting it clear? Can you redownload the apps you've bought. The phone itself is still registered to the sprint account right, i wouldn't have to call/go to sprint to get it working right. |

It's the Dialer. Download and run Spare Parts. Go to Battery Activity, Partial Wakelock. You'll almost definitely see Dialer keeping your phone awake all the time. It'll be ok for a little while after a reboot but then it'll happen. Trust me. I think it's a bug with 1.5.

for those with this problem, does pressing the [end]/[power off] button not turn off the screen?

I think we just need to make sure Sprint/HTC know about this so they can fix it in a software release. My Dialer starts keeping the phone awake even wihtout receiving or placing calls. Seems to be related to text messages too for some reason.

Just an update...
Before going to sleep last night I rebooted my phone and then immediately hit the power button to put the phone to sleep. After being off for 8 hours I turned it on, did just a couple things and then checked the wake time. It was down to about 12%. So, maybe this means I'm not having as much of a problem with wake time as I originally thought. It could be that my high wake time percentage was due more to my playing with the phone all the time and using it to stream Pandora even when the screen is off. Even so, my Dialer is still far and away on top of the list when I check Partial Wake in Spare Parts, no matter if I sort the list since 'last boot', 'last unplugged', or 'total'. The next closest thing in the list is Android OS, and it's barely a sliver of blue. ![]() Quote:
