I've been having a problem recently with my Touch Pro, every five minutes the wait cursor flashes on screen 5-7 times, make my phone lag, then stops for another five minutes. I'm not running the TF on it I use Ifonz, I have all automatic updates turned off and have my EVDO set to turn itself off after 3 min. I've opened my processes and don't notice anything out of the ordinary. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've only installed two apps since I noticed this happening (K Button and GetSportz) and have uninstalled them without it helping my problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have searched but I haven't seen anyone reporting this problem.
I have had this intermittent problem with the clock moving suddenly back a few hours and I couldn't really figure out what operation caused the problem but now I have noticed that it happens (not every time) when I turn the phone off. Immediately after I turn the phone off I go back to the home page and the clock is hours behind.... usually four or five hours...
Anybody seeing this behaviour?
yup mine does the same
rarely does it tho like once a week if that,
seems to be no pattern to it i dont leave things running in the background and its happened twice both times phone had been suspended (clicked the power button)
i run S2u2 and when that was unlocked the clock cycled through 4 hours worth of minutes
_ I THINK _ this problem occurs if the phone is disabled while Opera is running. If Opera is not running in the background then switching the phone off will not change the clock. Can anybody please try? Use Opera for a while then go to Comm Manager, set "Airplane Mode" and check if the clock time changes. Thanks.
Hey everyone,
I need your help figuring out why my Touch Pro 2 will not enter sleep mode on it's own. For some reason, the back light will dim, but the screen will stay on even though I have all my settings correct in the power management settings. Has anyone experienced this before? I think the fact my phone will not sleep automatically really impacts my battery life as I can barley make it from 7AM-5PM with barely using it much. It use to work fine, but now it doesn't. I've even done a format of the device twice, but still that doesn't seem to fix the issue.
Any help or advice is appreciated.
Not sure what programs you have loaded but try cold boot, see if works. Then check as you add one program at a time.
There is also an option under settings/battery/advanced to force the device to sleep after a period of time.
@ Aspesi4
Did you ever find a solution for this? I'm having the same issue.
I'm not sure when it started as I have a habit of putting the phone to sleep manually before I holster it.
If I lock the phone, the screen will dim, and at intervals, get bright again on its own. If I leave it at the TF Home Screen, it will stay bright and never dim.
I just can't bring myself to hard reset this phone right now . . lol. Maybe when I have more time. For now, I'll keep manually putting the phone to sleep .. . . sort of a muscle memory thing anyway. I wouldn't mind fixing it though, either.
Nope, never solved this problem. Sorry, I think you're on your own on this one.
I have also been experiencing this problem. I just got my Verizon Touch Pro 2 about two weeks ago. I have only added a handful of apps (WinMo MarketPlace, NetFlix Mobile manager, AP Mobile News, WeatherBug, and Shazam. I am pretty sure it was doing this before Shazam.) I think the phone was doing this even before I installed anything on it, but not certain. This is what I noticed;(I had T-Mobile's version and it did not have this issue.) I was amazed that my new Verizon Touch Pro2 was draining its battery life much more quickly than my TMobile version. Then I figured it out; when ever I get any notice on my phone (missed call, text message, phone notification)the screen lights up. This is normal. However, what is not normal is that the screen stays on until I manually acknowledge the notification or I manually hit the sleep button. I have the power management settings to turn off the backlight if not used for 30 sec and to put the phone to sleep after 1 minute. I tested it a few times to see if it would eventually turn off, 1 minute, 3 minute, up to 15 minutes and it still stayed on. . .
htc touch pro 2 won't enter sleep mode
It's the weather program that keeps it awake ...Slider Bar -> Settings -> Data Download Weather -> Uncheck download weather automatically
htc touch pro 2 won't enter sleep mode
"It's the weather program that keeps it awake ...Slider Bar -> Settings -> Data Download Weather -> Uncheck download weather automatically"......
Agreed it is the weather program.
Specifically I turned off my location data collection..... Settings > Location > Improve Location Service (Slide to off). This worked! However out of interest I switched it back on and my backlight still sleeps OK, I just hope this problem doesn't keep randomly popping up.
I'm experiencing the same issue, suddenly...
But when I re-enable the Location option, it won't go into sleep...
Any ideas how to fix this?
bloddy idiots. HTC adds fancy animated auto-downloading weather at GPS location and break the ability to turn the phone on or answer calls! Quietly BRILLIANT!!!!!! idiots.
Hi!
- it happens randomly (while driving, overnight, during day)
- it always goes back by a random amount (from several minutes to several hours)
- it sometimes happens multiple times per day, and sometimes works fine for weeks
- i have enough of this, i always need to set up two devices to wake me up.
Any solution HTC masters?
Hey, I have the same problem... Anyone can help?
i had the same thing and nearly freaked me out BUT there is a fix:
in phone settings there is a tab GSM/UMTS services
deactivate time syncronization there and it never happens again
I switched it just like the exilkubaner said about two weeks ago, so far it never bumped back again. So I believe it works
Yup, also had the crazy thing when sometimes I woke up in the morning and my clock on the phone was at like 7pm or so.
tab GSM/UMTS services -> deactivate time syncronization did the job
Had read a few suggestions for fixing this "sleep of death" issue on the G tabs... doesn't seem anyone has posted this
I've tried multiple ROMS, multiple apps like Regpon Wifi stay awake etc. and multiple GTabs...
The only thing that repeatedly seems to completely fix the not waking after sleep issue is an app called "Captivate Keep Alive"
Instead of tying wake to WiFi or CPU, it lets you tie it to battery %.
Try it, let me know if it works on your ROM.
Tested working 100% for Vegan 5.1.1 and CM 7 Harmony.
Tablet used to require boot after leaving it, now it will always wake up, after 1 hour, 20 hours, etc. Plugged in or not.
Completly agree. I tried all ROMs, and Kernals(up to .40). Nothing helps, but Captivate Keep Alive.
I had a similar, but not same issue. My WiFi would turn off completely when teh screen went blank. I could not ping it. Turns out that I had to update my kernel to pershoot's 2.something.39. That fixed it. I do find it every now and then totally unresponsive but pressing the power button patiently 3-4 times wakes it up. I'm running CM7.
App works
So glad I found this thread. I was having this same issue using TNT Lite and installed Captivate Keep Alive. I have been able to turn on from sleep without the reboot.
Hello,
I own my device for 2 years now and last week I decided it was time for a fresh restart and did a factory reset without any issues...well, until yesterday.
Suddenly, out of the blue, in games like Marvel Snap (card game) and Twitter app, the touch screen becomes unresponsive - only power button to turn screen off and fingerprint unlock works until phone thinks it is okay to respond again.
Weirdly, it gets worse while on Wifi and I notice a slight heating up during such temporary freezes.
My phone is practically useless especially while on Wifi now and doing a clean-up, a BitDefender sweep, changing performance settings did not work. I have to mention that it got worse when I set the power profile to ultimate performance so I am beginning to think there is some kind of overheating issue.
I am on MIUI 14.0.1.0 if that helps in any way. I keep all my apps updated.
Do you have any ideas so as to diagnose the problem here?
Thanks in advance.

Heat causing hardware issue could be possible.
A backup phone and migrate data and apps just in case.
Changed refresh rate to 120hz and uninstalled TorBrowser and the issue seems to have disappeared.
Took refresh rate down to 60hz and it happened again instantly. For some weird reason, 60hz seems to be the problem in my case.
I got stuck at "post reply" button for a few seconds just now.
Nah, nothing seems to work. The issue persists. Videos keep playing - anything happening real time keeps on, but touch controls get stuck/extremely sluggish at best.
