'Wave Live Wallpaper Light" app is not preventing sleep on mine
[HTC EVO 3D] ktrotter11:
Check for rogue apps, or things continously syncing
[HTC EVO 3D] lionmane:
Turn off all radios if you are sleeping, that might help.

I've done a hard reset twice, and the problem still persists with no apps downloaded.
[HTC EVO 3D] bballer71418:
I found my phone was not sleeping as well. I didn't do much extensive testing but I thought it may be weatherbug so I deleted that. I also read somewhere to reboot your phone and using a task manager wipe everything 5x then turn the screen off and let is sleep for 5 mins. And look in battery setting to see if the # is different and it was. So those 2 things fixed it for me
[HTC EVO 3D] CrippleB:
Good night sweet 3VO

Maybe the charger idea or rogue app. I have not used live wallpapers more then just to check them out and have not downloaded a whole bunch of apps. Anticipation formatting when root is here.
[HTC EVO 3D] xPhantom:
I am thinking I might just have to go to the Sprint store and get a replacement and see how that one works.
[HTC EVO 3D] chrischoi:
When the screen locks without going to sleep, it just doesn't go to sleep. I sat here and stared at it for a while. It just sat there on the weather homescreen/lockscreen.
[HTC EVO 3D] VoXHTC:
Same here, think several thousand of us got bunk phones.

Why don't they test this ****? Sigh...

They usually test only a percentage of what goes through the line

[HTC EVO 3D] thesparky007:
without root and hence spare parts battery monitoring i cant tell which app is killing my battery.... i am getting nearly 75% awake time....

my battery is barely surviving 7 hours
[HTC EVO 3D] Ep3n3wp:
I just got a replacement phone.... Cause my last one the battery would drain while on charger the charger all night.. No wake lock issue either the phone slept amazing during the day. And if I looked at what the battery went to it showed the phone declining from charged to nothing while showing it was actually charging
[HTC EVO 3D] chunk23:
Oh, maybe this is why my phone is reporting the display is responsible for 59% of the battery usage
[HTC EVO 3D] xPhantom:
How is your replacement phone?
[HTC EVO 3D] Ep3n3wp:
looks like replacement Is no good... Having wake lock issue... And I powered off my phone last night and put it on charger while off and the led came on (red) saying it was charging and I woke up(10hours later) and it was still red I powered on phone and my battery was pretty much dead (2% left)

This is ridiculous

Going to sprint again today I guess
[HTC EVO 3D] xPhantom:
Damn, that sucks to hear. Good luck on your next replacement! I'm about to head to the Sprint store also right now.
[HTC EVO 3D] parousia15:
Have any of you tried updating your profile (settings>system update > update profile)? After I did that, my phone's wake issue disappeared.
[HTC EVO 3D] LostRib:
Did everyone take the ota? I thought that was supposed to help wake issues
[HTC EVO 3D] itsallsubliminal:
are you guys using manual brightness or auto brightness? I'm using manual ("brightness widget" is free and awesome) and have not having as bad as issues... so far today, my display is 24%
[HTC EVO 3D] Neo31697:
Did you check or try a different charger? A friend of mine had the exact same problem with a hero and it wasn't until he gave it to me after braking the screen and I found out the USB cable was bad not the phone, just another idea,

[HTC EVO 3D] mhoepfin:
No conclusive proof, but I think the camera is causing the wake lock issue.
[HTC EVO 3D] imex99:
Wake issue here....

Running all the same apps that I had running on my rooted EVO 4g. Had no awake issues then.... It has to be something with the phone, hopefully can be updated and corrected!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] xPhantom:
I just got back from the Sprint store. Got a replacement. While I was in there, I checked the demo models. Both had the OTA and application updates... neither had the wake lock issue. Currently seeing if my replacement has any issues. The first thing I noticed is that the speaker on my replacement is NOWHERE near as loud as the one on my first E3D. Before, I could watch videos and listen to music at half volume... but now even at full volume, it's not as loud. I will watch for the wake issue though. However, I am tempted to replace it again due to the crappy speaker.
[HTC EVO 3D] VoXHTC:
Yeah I've done this 5 times, though it seems there is "always" a profile update. It never goes away.

Your profile always needs an update? Why is that? You would think that would disappear after you apply the update once. Sigh.
[HTC EVO 3D] Ep3n3wp:
So I have ran some test... in the evo 3d car dock no wake lock issue, on my old evo 4g car charger no wake lock issue on 3 different htc wall chargers all wake lock issues... im going to try my wifes htc slide charger next also going to double check prl and data
[HTC EVO 3D] clark44:
Omg why would you guys make a whole new threads. I already made a thread About this before. It was simply because either it was chargingor I had auto sync on. Now turn it off and run the ota because it fixes account syncing
[HTC EVO 3D] VoXHTC:
Sorry bro, it's not that simple. Not everyone can force themselves to see the problem as easy as this. The OTA has already been applied to my phone. The issue it seems, is with a few phones, not the majority. Auto sync on or off. The battery drains.

You're lucky you're either ignoring the problem, or you don't have it on your particular phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] Ep3n3wp:
I just tested on my wifes htc slide charger and I have wake lock issues.... I just unplugged and left phone on table and it had no wake lock issue... It actually slept in under 5 minutes

I think it us a charger issue cause on my old evo car charger (ebay charger) it across fine with no wake lock
[HTC EVO 3D] chunk23:
I'm seeing about a 10% energy discharge an hour if I dont use the phone at all in that hour. Looing at the battery meter, something is waking the phone every 5 minutes and I have no idea what it is.
[HTC EVO 3D] VoXHTC:
I'll try charging via USB tonight with my computer. See how that goes.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
There are a few things you guys can try:

1) Download Terminal Emulator from the Market and run this command:

top -m 5 -d 5

That will give you the top 5 apps running on your phone and it auto-refreshes every 5 seconds. You can modify these numbers if you want to see more or less info or have it refresh faster or slower. You don't need to specify -d at all and it will refresh automatically in 3 second increments.

2) Download SystemPanel Lite from the Market. I have the full version, but you should still be able to monitor what you need with the free version (although, I do recommend buying the paid version, great app!) You can have it look for the "Top Apps" within a specified time period. Lots of detailed info in this app!

3) You can try BatteryMonitor, however, I got an FC when trying to use it on my phone and didn't bother clearing data or reinstalling. Granted, it was auto-restored by the Market so that may be the issue or it may not. But if it works, you can see all kinds of usage - what you will want to look at is partial wake usage.

Hope this helps :)
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
Everything looked fine with terminal, I already have System Panel, didn't reveal anything really.

I do have a wake lock issue though, didn't have one when I first got the phone, but I can tell that as of a couple days ago it started, my battery life hasn't been very good. really don't want to take the OTA because I want S=OFF!

Things I've tried, uninstalled Music Beta, SugarSync (had read it caused issues.) Friendcaster. none worked, still wake lock.

any other ideas?
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Well, you can take the OTA and still get S-OFF. I read it on Twitter.
[HTC EVO 3D] nate420:
I read on Twitter the EVO 3d can double as a underwater 3d camera...

sent from a 3devo
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
LOL. priceless.

And, I've seen posts from TeamWIN stating that you still shouldn't take the OTA. got a link of who said it was ok?
[HTC EVO 3D] VoXHTC:
Well regardless, the current temp root method works with the current OTA. HTC will probably release their bootloader unlock fix before we get S-OFF.

either way, I'm taking the risk, because I would rather have the update and my phone working well...sorta of working with the wake lock issue.
[HTC EVO 3D] Anon9mouz:
Well I think mine is OK I haven't had ne issues so far I did have nexus s in hand brand new and traded off for 3d brand so u hope it was a better switch
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
I'm not making it up.

This was from the FAQ in Dev...

What's up with the OTAs, can we take them?

I'm at work, so I can't log on to twitter to find the post, but agrabren said that this exploit will work regardless of OTA or not and that he has tested it on 2 devices- 1 with the OTA, the other without.
[HTC EVO 3D] nate420:
Nothing is wrong I'm just saying don't believe eveything you read on Twitter

AS OF NOW

Anyone that took the first two updates (the only two that I personally know of) are still ok and the exploit can still work!

They also stated do not take ANY other OTA untill they look over it to make sure it doesn't close the sphincter to the exploit!

sent from a 3devo
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
Ok.... Well, thank you both for your help. and the OP.

I'm going to take the 1st 2 updates. Igot titanium backup working (worked?.. did work?) so, as long as I could restore some of my app data I was...well, it was enough to hold me over for a proper root, S-off and some custom ROMS. lol

thanks again.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
I'm very excited to get this phone S-OFF and get custom ROMs on here! I'm not a Sense guy, but since CM7 is probably going to take a while, I figured I would make a Sense ROM for the E3D. I sucks it can't be tested yet, but it should run really well. I took all 200+ system apps, ripped them apart 1 at a time, took out all the extra files in the apps, recompiled, pngopt, and zipaligned everything. Cut about 40-50% off of the size of the /system/app folder will all the original apps in there.

I could have royally screwed up and it may not even boot (I'm pretty sure this isn't the case) but I'm anxious to find out!
[HTC EVO 3D] BrianBaker:
when the phone is charging it counts it as awake time....Unplug the charger and it sleeps fine
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Correct, but that's not what we're talking about. It seems that some people have their phone unplugged and screen off and the phone is keeping itself awake.
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
OMG, I can't wait!. no, shut up... you're just going to get me all excite and I won't be able to sleep. And I'll blame you. :D

Yeah, mine isn't plugged in. Soooo..... what now? lol

I did install the OTA, lets see what happens next, shall we?

EDIT: seems to be all good...... for now. >.>
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Oddly enough, this is happening to me today. The phone shows that it's been awake all day and not sleeping. I rebooted and it seems to still be doing it. What the hell...
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
haha so did i.

It's either from being on the charger, a ****ty app, or having performance wifi turned on.
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
OK, so my phone is back to not sleeping again.. I took the ota.. it seeks, for nothing. Anyone have any idea what is causing this?..... Seriously.

It would sleep fine, and then slowly seems like it sleeps less and less until its just locked, even after pulling the battery.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Mine is doing fine now, but you can grab Process Monitor Widget from the Market if you want to do some detailed logging of what processes are doing what.
[HTC EVO 3D] VoXHTC:
That app doesn't show up in the market. Who makes it?
[HTC EVO 3D] VoXHTC:
How do you know it's seeking?

Ive already delt with this, called htc, its a software defect and the phone needs replaced
[HTC EVO 3D] Raspster:
Software defects get delt with on rom updates... Don't think a replacement will fix it unless the replacement has a different ROM version.
[HTC EVO 3D] marc.ientilucci:
well, u can add a +1 to the group. my phone died in about 4 to 5 hrs today, steady decline - it says it did not sleep at all.

:( i have the latest OTA's, profile and PRL's. i was gunna clear storage but i see its already been attempted. any have any updates on this?
[HTC EVO 3D] marc.ientilucci:
wondering if anyone has tried swapping batteries with someone else who has good battery life? maybe we have defective batteries. we all seem to have some typ eof charging issue...
[HTC EVO 3D] shark1987:
This may just be my situation but I discovered today that Vtok was causing this problem for me.

I had been having constant awake times "since I got the phone". I think it was that I installed this the first day.

This morning I checked my battery usage and Vtok had taken up 5% the battery used in a couple of hours. The thing is the last time I used the app was 3 days ago and I had signed out of it then and not even opened it since. Also there were multiple reboots since. Then to see it was running and taking a significant % of battery life was shocking.

So I uninstalled it and the constant "awake" time has gone away!!! The 12 hours of sleep time for my phone in a week!
[HTC EVO 3D] marc.ientilucci:
i dont have vtok and am cursed with awake time.

i just did a clear storage. have not even signed in yet( the phone was about 97% when i did the clear storage.

when i got prompted to enter info for google, i just turned the phone off and put it on the charger, its been about 20 mins now and LED is still red.... something cant be right here...
[HTC EVO 3D] novanosis85:
Uptime: 54

Awake:17
[HTC EVO 3D] sdezrilov:
I just noticed that after I reboot or turn my phone on after being off all night that the running on battery timer states its been on for several days.

Not sure if this is in any way related?
[HTC EVO 3D] marc.ientilucci:
so i did a factory reset, (vol down and power) and then turned the phone off before signing into google. let the phone charge all the way (wall charger). pulled phone off charger and turned on. i signed into my google account (chose to manually sync, then later chose sync automatically). the market restored 32 apps or so, i also updated the watch app. i am connected to wifi as well.

i have been letting the phone sit, off the charger un touched, i have 39 mins of "up time" and about 7 mins "awake"

ill report back once i have more info...
[HTC EVO 3D] marc.ientilucci:
I charged my phone for a bit on the wall charger. Left it unplugged over night and IT SLEPT.

Another change I made prior to this was setting screen brightness from manual to auto.

I did my normal routine this morning, listened to my Sirius xm on the way to work. Charged with car charger. Phone seems to be sleeping as normal....

I have a list of apps I had installed before I did this. I will remove the apps I currently have on my phone from the list and post it.

Maybe we have a similar app that is causing phone to stay awake.

So far the clear storage has worked, but remember I haven't returned all apps I had when I did have the awake issue...
[HTC EVO 3D] shark1987:
Amazing!

After removing Vtok yesterday I thought I noticed better battery life (as well as actually going to sleep as mentioned in my previous post).

The past week everyday I have left work (5-6pm) and barely had 10-20% battery left.

Right now it is 10:45pm my time and I have 60% battery left.

I don't think I will ever install that app again.

i'm one of those people that uses their phone constantly. i look at it nearly every 10 minutes. i'm on SRF 1.2 and have calibrated my battery. and i got about i think 10 hours last night to about 15 percent area. i'm using the AIM, and IMO messenger app, also weather bug. so i'm trying to figuare out best settings to get the best battery life without lock ups and freezes.

any help would be appreciated :]

is really easy to undervolt, all u have to do is mess with the frequencies a little and use it like u normally do a couple of hours to see if u dnt get any freezes, if u do, all u have to do is pull the battery and restart ur phone. And to overclock u gotta have a kernel that allows overclocking like genocide or vision kernel. All phone are different so the frequencies that work on my phone may not work on urs. So jst give it a try :)
