I recently falshed the new WM6.1 ROM from the HTC website. The only problem I can't seem to get around is when the phone is locked and put in sleep mode, a few seconds later the screen will flash white for a second. And then periodically blink white. Mainly I don't want to waist precious battery life. Its now driving me insane. I've looked and searched for hours on hours and can't find anything like this.:confused:
I've hard reset, soft rest. Got rid of the bloatware. But still got this blink.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

I've came across this several times with many 6.1 roms. I am not sure if a fix exists. However, this has never bothered me. I simply click the power button twice and the blinking stops. Hope this does the same for you.

All The Best.

Same thing happens to me. I will be watching to see what the response is. Bugs me too. No idea how many times that's happening while it's in my pocket or something - not good for battery life and can't be good for the screen either...

Using the latest HTC WWE WM 6.1 ROM the TyTN II will occasionally require two button presses to come out of power saving mode.

If you were happy/happier with the WM 6.0 ROM complain to your ROM provider and if necessary request it be reverted (or read up here and once you know whats required, do it yourself). I don't see any 'new' official ROMs coming for this device now it's comparitively elderly, so I think it'll be up to you to come up with a solution.

HTC has provided an HotFix for that issue at :

AT&T Tilt WM 6.1 Backlight HotFix (http://www.htc.com/us/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=67&cat=1&dl_id=269)

But Truely speaking, I installed and it didn't worked for me.
It might work for you, so just give a try.

Thanks guys. I'll try the double push of the power button and see if it works, if not I live with it a little longer, till I go mad.:eek:
If I can't take it anymore I'll just re-flash to a different ROM.
Once again, thanks for the replies.
By the way the BACKLIGHT HotFix didn't work for me either. I think thats mainly to fix issues with the backlight timer always reverting back to 10 seconds, no matter what the user setting is.
