I have had the same when i flashed a rom recently. at the end it was simple in my case.
backlight settings for batterypower were not activated.
go to start/settings/system/power
check there at backlight if dim and turn off options on battery are checked
thanks it worked.can't believe I didn't think of that. .

Hi,
First of all, I want to thank ALL of you for doing such a great job on improving this wonderful device.
Now, my problem: After upgrading to latest ROM 2.11 I noticed that my device doesn't go to sleep. I have it set to turn off backlight at 30s and sleep at 1min and the backlight does turn off, but it doesn't go to sleep at all!
Does any of you have the same problem and know a solution?
thanks in advance!
Chris
I've got sorta the same problem, only with WM6 (LVSW). It seems to only occur when WiFi is on, with WiFi off it sleeps fine. :/
Strangely the device started to sleep normally. I didn't change anything. Very strange!
Thanks
Chris
Have anyone noticed that the phone wakes up at midnight?
The backlight goes on even if the phone was in stand by....?
What is a Vampire-Phone?
Will it kill me while I am sleeping???
Does anyone know why???
Thanks
Windows maintenance service, checking if everything is OK.

yes i have seen this on my phone. it would drain my battery when i wake up in the morning, (I didn't set the power settings to let it go to sleep).
I cannot say if it is fixed because right now I have the power settings to put it to sleep in 1 minute if nothing's happening, I have also hard resetted my phone since then. but I blieve it was some third party application I installed before.

Easy there, pureheart. I didn;t have anything to do with it. I just bought one.

Have you recently flash a ROM? If so, then this may be a commonly known side-effect, cause by having the connection setup wizard running in the background. If this is the case, using the comm manager, switch to airplane mode. You may need to restart afterwards but it should just bring up the setup wizard. Just complete the process and your problem should disappear.
Hope this helps
Awesome, worked! Thank you so much!
Everytime I turned the phone off I could see the setup wizard running and I did think it could be that, but couldn't find a way of switching to it.
Thanks again!

Hi everyone
I have a strange problem since a couple of days. If turn my HD2 off (standby) the wifi connection remains alive. This naturally is a massive battery drain and the only thing I can do, is to manually turn it of whenever I don't need it. Does anyone have a solution for this problem.
After this problem appeared I thought I might have accidentally turned on the WiFi Standby tweak in BsB Tweaks. It appears turnoff in BsB Tweaks. So I thought I might try turning it on an then off again to clean up the registry, but I don't seem to be able to turn it on so it sticks. I'm thinking maybe BsB Tweaks isn't actually showing whether it's turned on or not. Does anyone know the reg-key concerned, so I can check manually whether it's turned on.
Thanks for your help

I have exactly the same problem. Have you found a solution?
I had this problem today where it constantly kept trying to connect and my battery went from 73% to 4% within a few hours, even though i selected cancel.
do you have bsbtweaks installed? there is a tweak in there that lets wifi stay on when on standby, perhaps that is active?
this is not issue this is normal , as they make the end key closes the screen they should have stretched the wifi turn off time after standby so wait from 2-3 minuites after going to stand by and you will find it closed automatically

it was doing exactly how you say before, but it now never disconnects. I keep forgetting to turn it off and it's such a battery killer. "keep wifi connection in standby" is not active under BSB Tweaks by the way.

Check this registry value...
HKLM\Comm\BCMSDDHD1\Parms:HTCKeepWifiOnWhenUnattended
It should be 0 to turn off wifi when in standby.
Hope this helps
Edit:
Ignore the space in "HTCKeepWifiOnWhenUnattended" above. It's this forum - it's always doing that
I've found this:
HKLM\Comm\BCMSDDHD1\Parms:SuspendOffDelayInterval
I've set it from default 30000(30 seconds) to 5000 (5 seconds) and WiFi does restart when I power-on after 5 seconds.

that didn't help me, still stays connected in standby.
This thread is interesting. I, on the other hand, would like to keep wifi ON while in standby (with screen off). For certain programs such as Pandora, I would like it playing in the background but have my screen off.
I am having the opposite issue. I can't seem to make it do that given the tips I found already on this thread.
I tried changing the following from 0 to 1 but noticed that when I poweroff phone, it goes back to being 0. Can anyone help me out? Sorry I don't mean to take over your thread. Maybe I should start a new similar thread with an opposite meaning..

Hi, is there a way to keep wifi ALWAYS on?
My mom doesn't have a data plan, she doesn't need one. She spends 22 hours a day at home with a wifi connection, so I got her this phone. But the problem is that wifi automatically turns itself off after a while! She has to turn it on to get the notifications. Is there a way to always keep it on so that notifications always come through? I've tried the battery management profiles, but unless I'm doing something wrong, it doesn't work correctly!
Any ideas? Apps? Or tweaks or something?
Thanks!
NEVERMIND! FIXED IT! I couldn't find the sleep policy but now I did ^^ Thanks guys!
OK, NEVERMIND! It's STILL not working! I got the policy to ALWAYS ON, but after a little bit the wifi connection disconnects! I went through the battery saving profiles as well, and same thing. Is there an application or a setting I can use to fix this?
Thanks!
you can try "soft locker" apps in market to keep your phone not "100%" sleep when the display turned off . .

I'll give it a try. What about any of those battery saving apps? The ones that auto turn on / off your wifi and 3G based on time. Do you think any of those could also work? I wrote Motorola and let's see what they say.
Thanks though I"ll give it a try today
