I have it set to check my gmail every 5 mins... I've tried 10 mins, 15 mins, etc, and for some reason it doesn't do it. I get emails which are hours old sometimes. It seems like it only wants to check when I'm actually using the phone and not when it's in standby, which is quite stupid if you ask me. Is there something I'm missing?
anyone? does it work properly for you? (i'm using jack's 1.04 fw btw... maybe I should reflash)

Same problem over here. When the phone is off (standby) it just doesn't check my email. As soon as I turn it on it starts checking my email. I use the default firmware so I don't think it is your custom firmware. I actually don't have a clue why it is not working properly.
This happened to me to but only if the phone was in standby AND the key lock was engaged. No key lock - mail check works fine.

Hm... I tried both, no dice for either. I thought it was maybe the panel I was using as the today screen... usually it was SPB mobile shell. I switched it to the default windows today screen, and it still doesn't check while in standby.
There's gotta be some setting that some program or I've accidentally set. I checked to make sure the "Turn off data when in standby" isn't checked so I know it's not that, unless something is overiding that somewhere.
Very annoying... might have to go back to my old nokia that can actually check email when I tell it to...

I tried searching for the reason/solution but could not find anything.
Basically my device keeps truning on. I read somewhere that it's due to a fault in the radio rom. Does anyone have any knowledge/solution for this?
Thanks
It seems very strange to me, which programs are installed in your phone?
If it's related to radio you can just try to flash the latest radio 1.38.00.11 (ripped by Pof) without losing any of your data to see if this resolves your problem.
pof's Trin_Radio_1.38.00.11_Only_SSPL rip
Thanks
I'll try this later and report back...

Do you have Exchange (Push) email? Do you have set email receiving to happen after a certain amount of time?
No, good suggestion but it's not the email settings.
I've put the newer radio rom on and so far no turning on. But it's only been a few hours so far...
Still turns on - oh well !
I have this same problem with my Imate Jam, my phone is set to check email every 15mins and I think thats when it turns itself on. But this must be a bug because it drains the battery so much faster especially it the screen gets random inputs when it is in your pocket constantly.
Another suggestion - do you use Sprite Backup Battery Monitor ?

or any other Weatherplugin which is checking every minutes the forecast ?

I have the same turning on issue. On mine, I know it is due to the email that is getting downloaded. Mine doesn't always do it, sometimes if I've been using wifi and turned it off, the phone will connect and check mail without coming out of standby. I haven't been able to track down exactly how to fix it. I do use DeviceLock which locks the screen so that if the phone wakes up for any reason when it is in my pocket or my backpack, buttons don't get pressed by accident.
My Dopod is turning on too and it really pisses me off.
I can be sure at 12:00am it will turn on every time.
I have reduced my power off time to 2min.

Before doing anything like flashing a different rom,start by eliminating some things
First remove your sim card and turn off the phone if it turns on by itself then its not network related nor has anything to do with your email settings.
Second try a different simcard and set the network manually to GSM and disable GPRS.
Third remove all programs that you've added(Hard reset if you have to).
Finally and if none of the above work flash a different rom.
* puts on noob protection *
Whenever I turn my device on, it goes back to the today screen and for the life of me cannot find any option to disable this!
I'm using LVSWs WM6 ROM.
RAH! Driving me nuts.
Thanks.
Same
I have the same problem with my PC. Every time I boot it up it goes to the desktop!
Can't work out how to stop it.

Good to know I'm not the only one. I don't think it always did this either.
Do you have HTweakC installed?
ok I am a little lost here if you put your device in standby it will awake to what ever screen was there before it went to sleep. If you power your phone off completely it HAS to start at the today screen thats just how it boots up... try using the ROM i have posted in the forum in my SIG since i have no issues with it.

I'm not sure that we are understanding your question properly. I can see some of those replying above are puzzled as well.
As Austinsync says above if you turn on after normal sleep mode you return to the screen you were on before. If you fully powered off (not something you should be doing in regular use) then it will go to the today screen.
So, when you start up your device what screen do you expect to see if it's not the today screen?

I believe I undestand the OP because I have the same problem. No matter what you have loaded, after going into standby the phone returns to the Today screen. The original active app is still loaded, but not in the foreground.
I have tracked the problem down to either pocketbreeze or Handyswitcher. I'll test more when I return from the business trip I am currently on.

Marcelo

Hmm.. I'm not using either of those programs. As for software running, I'm using HTC X-Button, phonealarm and spb tools.
I just flashed a different ROM. Older LVSW modified by austinsync this time. Same problem!
I just flashed the LVSW by Sleuth255 and it doesn't do this!
It seems to have been a problem with all of austinsync's ROMs. Phone starts up MUCH quicker now too!
EDIT: I just remembered that the customizations from EXTROM didn't run with Sleuth255's ROM. Could be part of it.
I have the same problem with Schap's Rom (3.57). Anyone else?
My .02.
I recently hard-reset my Schap's 3.57 ROM and have installed minimal software that interact with the Today screen. Before hard-resetting the device, my system would also go to the Today screen whenever my device came out of standby. After the hard-reset, it no longer goes to the Today screen until after the timeout period defined in the Today Settings.
Before Hard-Reset on Today Screen:
Office Communicator
Windows Live Search
Activesync Exchange Server Direct Push
Palm Messaging
After Hard-Reset on Today Screen:
Palm Messaging
No Data Connection or Direct Push
Hope this helps.
Murad
-----------------------------------
Running Schap's 3.57 ROM, not the Official HTC WM6 ROM (as in my signature)
I really don't have this problem!
OS see my signature
I just had to hard-reset (Schap's 3.54b), and the device still goes to today screen. Gaaaahhhh!!!
This is also being discussed here.
mikechannon suggested this might only happen when you're using device lock? My exchange admin requires it - I have a device lock and I also use Zenyee Stayunlock to allow me to adjust my settings...
I already posted in the sticky but didn't get any answer.
My problem is one that occurs quite often how I see but still I don't find any solution.
The problem is that the screen of my HD doesn't show up anymore when it was in standby and I left it for some minutes. It's on because I can still change the loudness and I can feel the buzz of the buttons when touching one. It takes me some luck and time to bring it completly to life again by pressing over and over the ON/OFF button. When I bought it the problem occured very rare but now it's happening all the time when it is in standby.
I never did install any roms (because until now I have no idea what it is about ), the only things I have done so far:
Installed TomTom 7.450.9028 and these two registry edits:
under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\POP3 i renamed the mailtrns.dll to mailtrns2.dll (it's a fix for the email because my GMX account didn't work with POP3 on my phone) and the other was setting the value HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/GPSIntermediateDriver/Drivers/GPSOneDevice/PollIntervall, to get better GPS-Signal
Everything else is just original, like it was when I bought it some days ago.
Is there anything I can do? Or do I have to send it in?
I really like the phone and it's working perfect except to this point so I'd like to stick to it. Hope you have some advice,
THX in advance,

Have you tried going to Start > Settings > All Settings > System > Power > Advanced and making sure device isn't set to turn off after a period of time?
Thx for reply but doesn't that mean my phone will be always on? Or can I set it then manually (by pressing ON/OFF) in standby and turn on again without problems?

Yes to both, it will remain on unless you manually put it into standby by pressing on/off
Ok, I try it out now. Hope it works that it comes on out of standby without problems.
Wow until now for exactly 1 hour and 33 minutes no problems. Seems to work, hope it will continue like this, if so I could kiss you

Could be difficult (grin).
Does anyone else have this issue?
Im pretty sure its MSN causing the problem.
I leave mine signed into MSN pretty much all the time. And I find somewhere between 6 - 12 hours my leo seems to crash.
Somtimes the screen lock will come on, I can slide the slider and put in my Pin but it says the pin is wrong (even though Im 100% sure I've put the correct pin in). Eventually the pin will lock out and ask me to enter a code at this point it seems apparant that my key inputs are not actually going anywhere and so my phone thinks Im putting in a blank pin.
Othertimes (and this is usually what happens) I press the on button and all I get is the keys light up but the screen never comes on.
Only way round it is to pull the battery or soft reset and all is fine again.
Im gonna run it for the next day or so without msn signed in to see if it still happens, and also with pin removed to see if that has any effect.
I guess maybe no one else leaves their messenger signed in?
Anyways to update. I've installed palringo and stopped using the default windows live messenger app and so far its been fine. Looks like its defo an issue with messenger.

I leave messenger signed in for most of the day at work, while the phone is on my desk charging via the PC, and I've never had reason to think it's doing anything it shouldn't.
The other things you mention are already posted on here though.
I don't use a PIN for my lock screen, so I never have the "incorrect number" issue, but it's a known windows issue. Other users are saying that they've had this for as long as they've had windows mobile phones, so it looks like you might be stuck with it for now. You could try some of the lock alternatives. Maybe ThrottleLock might help?
I've had the phone not activate when I press the buttons too. There's a thread about that somewhere on here.
If using Palringo instead of messenger really does solve your problems, you may make a lot of people on here very happy with you
Is there something simple that I am missing that someone can point me to? When I use GPS/Google Maps, the screen times out after the set delay (I have it set to 30 seconds) and I have to turn the phone back on again.
This never happened with my G1. When it was in GPS/Map mode, the screen would just automagically stay on.
i still have my eris (1.5) but i use keepscreen...

didn't want to create a new thread, but did anyone find a solution to this besides keeping the display on when charging?

Hello,
I've exactly the same problem. I tried keepscreen, it works, but I wanted to know if there was an other solution (without installing an application).
If somebody has a solution, it would be great
Screebl does what you want.
If you use the Navigate function the screen does not timeout. of course you can't be in any other app.
