It's probably the instant messenger receiving an SMS message with someone signing on/off or you getting a message.

if you are using a case with a magnet in it it will cause it to turn on like if you were sliding it open to fix this download kaiser tweaks and turn off the option to turn on when slide open or keep away from magnet cases

This is indeed the only thing i can imagine is happening. Strong radiowaves can turn on/off devices and even uses them..... Just to give a exemple, I work on a warship and we had a 250KW powercable with some leaks in the isolation. This causes some of the other equipment to power on and even use it while all safeties were still on!

My brother wanted to give me his old Wizard holster which closes with a magnet. I told him the magnet might cause my screen to turn on. Sure enough, as soon as the phone got near the holster the screen came on and switched to landscape just as it would if I had flipped out the keyboard.

Guess that's why my Kaiser came with a holster that uses velcro.:(

This has been driving me nuts since I got my Tilt! The slightest sliding movement of my screen would wake the phone up.

Thanks for the easy fix with the Kaiser Tweak setting!
