Default XDAII switched on automatically

Hi All,

I noticed a strange behavior on my XDAII recently, after I installed a few softwares to it. When I switch off the unit (by pressing power button at the top), after a while it will switch on automatically. I am not really sure whether this is caused by the software I installed or it is hardware faulty. Anybody experienced the same?

My XDAII:
ROM vers: 1.03 USA
ROM date: 09/24/03
Radio vers: 1.05.14

Software that I installed:
1. Agenda Fusion
2. Resco Explorer 2003
3. Lextionary
4. Sprite Backup Premium
5. Wisbar Advanced
6. Pocket Divx

p/s: this behaviour can quickly drain the battery.. :cry:

i have noticed some what similar behavour on my XDA. hoewever this only happens if i activesync with my PC and then shut my PC down. The phone will then sit in the cradle and every 5 mins or so the screen will come on and stay on until i manually press the power button.

i have found this to be that active sync is still running in the task list on the xda and is still trying to sync with the Pc which is switched off? but ive not had this problem with any other software :?

Default SpriteSW is just ignoring this PROBLEM !!!

:evil:
TURN OFF any scheduled backup in the spritebackup software !!!

Sprite knows this problem but since u bought it already... they refused to acknowledge it or do something about it!!!

COMPLAIN !!! :twisted:
