View Full Version : Mogul randomly turns on?

Sometimes I notice that my device is on already when I take it out of my pouch.
I left it on my desk once to monitor its behavior... and sure enough, sometimes it will turn itself on as if it is receiving a call, but no call rings. Then the screen dims (as it should) and sits like that for a while.

Has anyone else noticed this?
What causes my phone to come out of sleep by itself?

I'm using the Sprint Mogul version with WM6.

yes, i've noticed usually that happens when i loses reception... don't know how to fix that hopefully someone out there is smart enough to figure it out :)

My Q did the same thing... it lights up for no reason, then times out like it should. If I don't lock my phone I end up opening a program or calling someone also it has to affect battery life. I have not been able to find out why the phone does this but I would sure love to know how to make it stop.

Do you have any emails setup that are pushed or checked on a schedule?

I find this happens when I am in fringe areas. I think it comes up when you lose service/switch to roaming/etc. I have slide 2 unlock so its really not a big deal.

I know I have read this somewhere but can't remember where I read it but lately I have had this happen. I reach for my mogul to find it awaken and with a screen asking for a password. I never have set a password and leaving password blank doesn't work. I have to soft reset to get out of it. Don't know if this is a mogul bug, wm6 bug, or 3rd party app bug. I have slide2unlock 1.19 installed as well as the Grumps iPhone theme, and HTC Touch Today plugin. Other significant apps installed includes Voice Command 1.6, smartskey, and Live Search 2.0

Anybody know the cause?

Edit: oops, meant to start new thread.

My 6800 randomly turns on and the screen for the voice dialing comes up. I have no clue why this happens but it is annoying and drains the battery faster.

Could it be that you have a BT headset that is trying to connect to it? I know mine reacts like that- as it should, since the BT should trigger a voice command.

yeah that's happening to me too, and my bluetooth is off. it's driving me nuts, i'm almost tempted to just lock the lock on my phone
