Since the update of my X10 to 2.1 I noticed some strange behaviour.
I could do almost a day with my battery, but on days I wasn't using my phone the battery also lasted 1 day.
Today I found out that my screen turns on randomly.
I suspected the Live Weather Wallpaper which updates every 3 hours (only), but disabling it didn't do the trick.
Strangely enough, my screen doesn't shut down either after set time.
Does anybody have the same problem or knows about an app/widget which influences the screen?
I'm not sure if it's the same problem but I ran into something similar before where every night my phones screen would turn on at 12am. After some looking around and thinking I realized I had my phone to back up at that time both with the standard back up tool and one for titanium back up. My screen would turn back off after the set time however.
It might be the same thing but since you said the screen doesn't turn off I am not certain.
If you really have no idea what is causing the problem you can take a closer look to see if it is truly random. It may be periodic.
EDIT:
While you're at it, list the widgets and other additional apps you've installed since 2.1
I found the reason for not turning off. The app Quick settings had it turned of (guess by me).
Now to check turning on.
Same thing is happening to me. The screen turns on randomly and stays on

Last night the screen stayed off.
It was probably my settings within 'Quick settings' which disabled the screen off function.
This is still happening to me from time to time Not sure what is causing it.

This weekend it 'got' back again.
While connected to power, the screen turns on when the battery is at 100%.
Annoying.
But last two days I'd to recharge the X10 because of a lit screen.
I thought it was because of the 'Quick settings' app, but that's gone for over a week now.
It's still happening to me. The screen turns on when it reaches 100% charged, very odd

I've noticed lately that after I end a call or lock my phone and then go to use it again the screen will stay black, HOWEVER I can see the lights between the hard keys light up and the actual screen LCD come on but stay black.
Has anyone else experienced this? Sometimes it will come back by itself and other times I will have to take the battery out to restart it
yes and quite offen actually, it happend on the first day i got the phone.
Happens to me if the up time is 30+ hours. Usually I just press the home key and it comes back around.

Hi, sometimes while I am using my phone, the screen turns off on its own, but the touchscreen still works and (obviously) pressing the power button doesn't do anything. I have let it sit this way overnight to see if the problem goes away and it doesn't. I have to remove the battery to make it go back to normal. This problem started about 3 days ago and has gone from happening once a day to about 10 times a day, which is getting me worried. I was running cyanogenmod 7 when the problem started, but I switched to liquid gingersense to see if the problem would still occur and it does. I apologize if this has been discussed already, I did a couple of searches and couldn't find anything that seemed to be my exact problem though.
Sounds to me that u r experiencing bsod(black screen of death). This happen when u leave it sleep and screen doesn't come back on....what u have to do is change ur governor to ondamand and up ur min....and that should work.

I'll give that a try, but I've noticed that it only happens when i'm using the phone. I can leave the phone on all night and it won't happen, but if i use it for like 10 minutes it will.
so heres the story:
when i lock the phone, the screen turns off as normal. but when i hit the power/home button to wake it and unlock it, nothing happens. literally, nothing happens. its as if the phone has turned itself off.
So whats happened is, I left the phone on the charger last night. it woke perfectly this morning when the alarm went off. no issues there.
I put the phone into my pocket and headed into work. i went to check my phone when i got on the bus and this was the first tme that I noticed that the phone wasnt waking. i eventually pulled the battery to get the phone to restart. i tried it again and the same thing happened.
later I made a phone call. the same thing happened again when i took the phone away from my head (the screen didnt restart, and I couldnt hit the End Call button cause there was none.)
since then, i've figured that to make sure the phone doesnt go to permanent sleep i have to do one of 2 things,
1) keep the phone music player running constantly, or
2) keep the phone connected to the usb charger.
clearly this isnt exactly practical for a mobile.
im not running any other Rom, its still the stock rom, android v 2.3.5, not rooted or anything else?
is this somethign anyone else has seen?
its called 'sleep of death' or SoD. some people has experienced this and some are able to fix it. it depends on what is causing it.
some blame it to the battery and the battery's contact point..
sometimes it fix itself after few reboots..
cheers for the info. Ill look into it and see if its worth trying to fix or just sending back.
no problem, i have this problem and cant do anything about it. i used load monitor to keep the phone awake, u/v a bit so it wont drain so much battery. but battery drainage still noticeable like 1% every 5 min..
just wondering, does it feels hot/warm near the camera lens when it happens? bcause mine does.
not particularly.
i finally got through to my provider and will be able to get it fixed/replaced soon. they just dont half drag their feet
So my Rezound will occasionally just shut off. It always happens while the screen is off (so not while I'm using it). But I'll go to try and turn it on to no avail. And I am forced to do a battery pull to get it working again.
Recently whenever I try to restart my Rezound it hangs on the HTC Logo for over a minute and never leaves until I press the power button and then press it again.
Any thoughts?
Edit: Also I just noticed, this has never happened before, but the screen is now showing the blue flicker like crazy. I always got the blue flicker here and there very fleetingly but now its every few seconds and the entire screen turns blue.
Shutdowns?
Are you undervolting or underclocking? I've had problems when using a screen off profile with clocks and voltages that are too low. It caused my phone to get into a deep sleep state that would need a battery pull to get it back.
I'm assuming you're running an ICS rom since you mention the blue flicker? Did you update the rom recently? Apparently if you set the animation to 1.5x it reduces it IIRC.
I've had mine shut off on it's own a few times. I'd leave it on at night and when I went to use it in the morning it would boot up instead of just showing the lockscreen, I assumed it was because the battery was dead but it would be at like 80%. Still never figured out why it does that, only happened a few times.
I am running stock S9+ from T-Mobile. Latest firmware. Today the phone has been shutting down after staying on for a few minutes. It just powers off. No new apps have been installed in days. I'm guessing some app that's been updated via auto-update in the past 24 hours is causing this. Looking for tips on how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue. Thanks!

Mine was doing that at one point. It has since then stopped on its own.

Did you try turning off lingerprint scanner? I saw a few people had the same problem and they solved it by disabling fingerprint scanner (Hardware Problem).
This problem went away same day but has come back again. I can't figure out what triggered it. What I did notice is that when the screen is on, the phone does not crash. I turned on the Timer and left the phone running and the phone stayed on for 1+ hours with screen dimmed but on. As soon as I turn the timer off, or lock the screen which allows the screen to go dark, the phone shuts off moments later. It's a mystery!!!
more notes: while the phone scree sees to be off and the phone is unresponsive, the blue LED is blinking!
