Power button not waking phone up

[dsotm82]

Every once in a while after not using the phone for a few hours the power button won't wake the phone up and I have to take the battery out or soft reset. Any ideas what is causing this?

[dsotm82]

Anyone have any ideas?

When I wake my phone up, it seems like it takes two hits of the power button to fully wake it up.

On the first try, I can see the answer and hangup keys light up for a second then go dark. On the second try, the phone wakes up.

Not sure what may be causing this. Can you try to see if hitting the power button a second or a third time will wake it up?

I can hit it 100 times and it won't wake up, needs a soft reset or battery removal to wake up. I've tried it with programs installed and just hard reset it and it's still doing it

It's a bug in HTC's software and they told me the fix will be included with the EVDO Revision A upgrade. Also the default SIP does not stick between soft resets and THAT bug is supposed to be fixed as well.

can you inform which ROMs you used that had this problem and which carrier?

[utexascg]

It's not a bug with the rom or the phone specifically. It's issues the phone has with certain software, etc.... I experienced the same problem when installing and running some items. After uninstalling the software the problem went away.

I've experienced this with several different applications that weren't intended for the Mogul but i decided to try out anyways.

My suggestion is to figure out when the problem started and then determine what software you had recently installed. This will most likely solve your problem.



Also, in a previous post someone mentioned that the SIP won't stick after a soft reset. This is true, however you can fix it with a free program on xda's site. Look for SIPChange

Someone posted previously that this happened even after a hard reset, and the only fix was having it exchanged for a different unit.
Sounds to me like at least in that case, it wasn't merely a software issue.

I actually had this happen to me today, but its not as often as some people report it to be. I've owned this phone for over a month, and its happened maybe 2-3 times. A little press on the soft reset button fixes it, and I forget it ever happened!

does this problem happens on WM5 & WM6?

[Yoshi Joghurt]

did you solved the problem? i have had the same problem and in my case PhoneAlarm was the reason.

I'm so happy to hear all this! especially since I plan on getting the phone this weekend! I can't wait to run into these problems! Just out of curiousity, where did you guys purchase your phones? City, State? Online? Earth? thanks!

What a funny place to be asking such a question. You comment on a thread discussing answers to problems you can't have had because you don't even have the phone yet!!

Can You Specified What Phone Do You Guys Use?
