Ok, so I think I have it narrowed down to the wifi scan interval registry key as it went all night without waking, but then its started again today, and I checked the registry tonight and its back set at 20 for scan interval.
Now short term answer is to have a small prog I can run to reset it to 0 - any ideas?

Hi
I have an XDA Exec, and as I am using it with our corporate email system (with Push email) our IT guys insist on the PDA locking after 15 minutes of non-use ... OK so far...
The problem I have is that I use my XDA as my SatNav as well, and this means that it often locks itself as I'm driving down the motorway!!
The option to change the timeout is greyed out, so I cannot change it via the normal user interface, so I guess I need to change some registry setting somewhere .... can any of you guys point me in the right direction???
Just a gentle nudge... this forum is buzzing at the moment!!!
It takes it's setting from your corporate policy, and every time you connect it will reset anything you change in your registry.
There is however a cab that specifically stops it locking while awake on external power, and auto lock as soon as you switch of or close the lid.
Might fix your issue.
Thanks AlanJC.... I'll give it a go
It is not working for me.
Hi guys,
I setup when my JASJAM running on battery, to turn off backlight when the device is not used for 1 minutes.
When the device turn off backlight after 1 minutes, and i turn on it, and check the settings i see that there is a new value set - 10 sec.
Can someone help me, which registry value i need to change.

This problem is purly with the rom you are using. I tried changing this when i installed the beta version of AKU 3.5 Rom and it wouldnt work, even after setting it in the registry! Everytime the device turns off it just resets to 10 secs....very annoying!
2 options.... Flash it, or live with it.
It has been reported that add on programs cause a conflict with the operating system. This results in the backlight defaulting to ten seconds. (With WM5, default is set at thirty seconds.) To remedy situation you can remove, one by one, any programs that you have loaded onto your PPC to find the offender.
I resolved this problem with a hard reset and it hasn't recurred so far.
Here is my trouble:
When I change the backlight timeout to 30sec in the GUI under the Backlight, Battery Power tab, it resets back to the 10sec default after power cycling the 8525.
I do have an HKEY_CURRENT_USER/ControlPanel/Backlight/BatteryTimeout that changes from 7 (Value Data) to 30, when I change the GUI as mentioned above. However it doesn't stick, and changes back after a power cycle.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Registry changes aren't realtime. If you're resetting the device too soon, the change won't take.
Wait a few minutes after making the change before you power down or reset or try to change it again.

I've changed the setting in the GUI & in the registry in the morning, and at around 14hrs later, reset it, and it still changes back to the 10sec default.
Any other idea's?
Thanks,
Steve

This problem has been discussed many times on several fora. One such thread is:

Are there any other updates/solutions to this backlight resetting problem? Mine started doing it after a hard reset and it's driving me nuts. I've changed the same registry settings as suggested above, but no effect.
I don't want to hard reset again as it was a major pain to get things going on my 8525 again and I really don't want to uninstall a bunch of programs (I have a ton on mine).
If worse comes to worse, I'll wait for the official AT&T WM6 update to come out next month, but I'd like to see if there's any other solution for now.
Thanks!

I think I found something. The backlight timeout stays set until I lock the phone using the today plugin. As soon as I do that, the 10sec timeout is reactivated.
I'm running VP3Gs V3
I've gone for the easy option, given that I don't fancy either uninstalling applications 1 by 1 until I find the culprit or having to hard reset and rebuild the device all over again.
That option is to disable the backlight turn-off setting and manually do it myself after using the device.

It appears that you are right. The "device lock" today plug in does not appear to re-enable the black light turn-off setting if it is off. If it is on, it does change it to 10sec through. Good to know.
I've been trying different options to alter the Data Disconnect on my Verizon Titan. Ideally I wanted it to disconnect after the phone shut off +/- 30 seconds. I've tried several different options, ending up with PocketToolman which is simple enough...or just using the ConnMgr directly. I just recently tried using the KaiserTweak, and things seemed fine with that.
The problem w/ KaiserTweak (at least in my case, may not be generally) was that whatever interval I set the time for: 1 minute, 30 seconds, 10 minutes..it seemed to randomly disconnect whenever it wanted to.
At this point I'm just looking to
1: Remove KaiserTweak - Done that already
2: Bring back the original Registry Settings - Need a bit of help
I've hard reset my phone enough times recently to not want to take up the 20 minutes or so to install everything and get settings going.
The following changes have been made in my registry:
SuspendResume: GPRS_bye_if_device_off
CacheTime: 120
Could anyone post what SHOULD be found under:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Planner\Settings without changes?
Thanks, if not...one more hard reset never heard a guy.
Hello,
since a few days my device is not entering standby probably. The screen goes off but my battery is down in a few hours. "time since last softreset" and "running time" show the same numbers.
I have the following processes running:
Code:
AEBplus
Biotouch
connmgr
cprog
device
filesys
gwes
nk
poutlook
services
shell32
My running Today Plugins are: TodayAgenda and HomeScreen++
I didnt install or change anything for the last weeks. So i have no idea where the sudden trouble with standby comes from. Any ideas (hard reset doesnt count)?
Is it possible that my gps wont turn off? Can i check this somehow?
I just went through my registry backups. 2 Month ago
ACSuspend = 0
ACSystemIdle = 0
BattSuspend = 0
BattSystemIdle = 0
appeared in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\Timeouts
Could that have something to do with it?
Make sure Wi-Fi Bluetooth and Internet Access is turned off I guess.
Of course thoose are off.
