i inherited a tilt 2 that i am using withut a sim card. just wifi, and primarily as a skype phone at home.
works ok with skype, but how do i get wifi to stay on with screen off? everytime i kill the screen with the power button, wifi turns off.
and, even with power settings arranged for screen to go off (both on batt and ac power), the screen never goes black on its own... i have to push power button.
im up for changing roms too... so if u have any advice, all i need is wifi and skype to work. period.
here ya go, fixes wifi stand by issue.
thanks. download and installed... seems to have done the trick.

Hi all,
My XDA IIs works well before. But few days ago the Power button doesnt work properly, it can turn on the phone, hold to turn off the back light, but I can't use it to turn my phone screen off like before. Anyone has same problem ?
Can you see any part of the screen? It might just be that the backlight adjustments are set too low when the unit isn't cradled. You might be able to see the screen in daylight.. or maybe it was inside your home. I forgot where I was at when it happened to me. In anycase, if you can see a bit of images on your screen, go into the Backlight properties and change the setting to your liking.
Good luck..
The problem is i can just press the power button to turn off my phone BEFORE (the screen is completly off), and NOW it doesnt work at all ! When my phone was off, I can press the Power button to turn it on, or when I hold it for few seconds the back light will be turned off, but press once to turn off. I dont know why, if somthing wrong with the Power button it should be doesnt work at all, that's mean i cannot turn on my phone as well. But other functions of the Power button are still work well, except the 'Turn off' :roll:
power off doesn't work anymore
I have the same problem here. I can't use the power button to power off my qtek 9090!!
i can use the power button to turn my pda on and to switch the background light on and off - so the "hardware side" of the power button is working.
however, i can't use the power button to turn off the device. it's very annoying, because i can't put it in my pocket after finishing a call :-(
this should be some sort of a software problem - so i hard resetted my device (a couple of times) - but that didn't help!
can anyone help?
thanks,
lorenz
the ba doesn't turn off it is always on staand by mode. ->settings -> system -> button lock
this will stop any missed call because when the ba is in standby the power button is the only one to work
power on is no problem. i can't put my BA into standby mode. if i press the power button while the BA is turned on, nothing will happen. the screen will stay on, the background light stays on.
i have no way to put it into stand-by with the power button!
try this and see if it works. it's a software app that wil rest, shut down, and turn the screen off. just copy it to your BA temp directory and install it.

power button problem
Does anyone solve the problem???
Had the same problem...
I had the same problem going on for about two weeks or so...never changed anything and it went away all by itself.
The problem has not come back now in over 4 months.
Sure would love to know what the problem was tho...

Power Off does not work
Add my name to people with this problem.
The only event I can link it to is this: I deleted my Motorola Bluetooth headset and installed a Logitech headset. I noticed the problem (can't turn OFF with POWER BUTTON) soon after that.
same problem for me ..... someone must know !!!!
I think it is a hardware problem. The contact is not making cleanly. Disassemble and spray time, perhaps.
It's a standard push switch, easy enough to replace, I occasionally list themon ebay but any phone repairier should have them in stock.

i had same problem yesterday afternoon, but it is ok now. recovered by himself
Write again in two weeks and let us know if it is still healthy. In my case, anintermittent problem became continuous.
Can't turn the screen on after pressing power button
I have a problem with my Bell Atrix. After pressing power button to lock the screen, i can't wake up the screen up by pressing that button again. Could anyone tell me how to fix it pls.
My PDA2k seems to be turning itself off even when in use :?
I use TomTom3 in the car, and even when the power is plugged into the bottom it was turning off ever few minutes.
I just took a phone call and when I has finished talking I noticed the screen had gone blank and pressing the red handset didn't bring it back, the power button did. (I do have screen lock on).
Having said that, thinking about it, I was watching TV progs on WMP on the way home and it never shut itself off once :?:
Anyone have any idea what is going on? Is this normal?
I have an o2 XDA2 S running TomTom 3 with the TomTom cradle. I occassionally find that the pda just turns itself off.
It doesn't happen all the time.
I have also found that sometimes during a call the pda turns itself off and I cant get it back on by pressing the handset key, just the on off button.
Cheers
Fatzzz
click start>settings>system>backlight . . in here you can change the time it takes to turn off in not touched the device, 5 mins max.... also if you click button lock in system settings, you can set it so that when it happens, you can tap screen and it comes back on again.... tho i prefer to keep that off, otherwise it may ring people while it its protective case.. :lol:
and going by all the software that is out for these xda's, you can prob find a programe /or hack to change it even longer if you need that!!!
But when it is on external power (plugged into the car using TT3), it shouldn't shut down at all. Aside that, when in use (when receiving a call) I wouldn't think it should shut down should it?
I have a seperate scren lock installed too. I found the built in one not enough. When it is in my belt pouch and I get a text, or connect to my BT car kit or something, it wakes it up. All of a sudden all the keys are being pressed (by the squeeze of the case) and all kinds of applications are opening!
Ok guys weird problem here. I was using my blueangel today, everything fine, went to turn it off using the power button and it didnt go off. Wifi was on so i thought it was just being slow like it sometimes is to turn off when wifi is on. However, sadly no.
Now it will not turn off using the power button. If i hold the button down then it will turn the backlight on and off as usual, also if i wait for it to turn itself off then the power button will turn it back on so i cant understand.
I have tried hard reset and even reinstall firmware and still the same is happening. Anyone have any ideas it just seems really weird that the other functions of the button seem to be working but just not the power off.
Please Help.
Thanks Guys.
I had the exact same problem, and all I can say is that it is better now - it just fixed itself randomly.
My advice until then is to set the self-turn off time to the minimum value, and wait the 30secs to turn it off.
How weird.
How strange, how long did it take until it started working again. Mine hasnt sprung back in to life yet, but then it has only been a day or two. Also did you try to fix the problem with hard resets like i did or did you just leave.
Thanks for responding.
Rob.
I tried a few hard resets to no avail. At around the same time (though they started independently) I also had a problem where only a few items would actually show up on my today screen, despite being enabled. At this time I was on holiday in tunisia, phone on flight mode the whole time to save battery since I couldnt get any coverage.
When I got home to the UK, I tried to see if luton airport had a wifi network. I didnt find anything, but mysteriously my two problems had fixed themselves over the course of the flight.
Very odd. I cant think of anything that would have trigerred the self-fix.
(For the record, I dont think it was the flight mode on/off switching, as I'm pretty sure I turned that on/off a few times while the problem was still prevalent).
Again, all I can say is leave it and hope.
Yeh mine's doing this. My power button actually broke off board a few months ago but got it fixed and I thought it had come off again but the only prob is switching screen on, if I hold it the backlight goes off
This is getting really frustrating. I can't use my phone for anything.
It started a couple of days ago.. My phone started losing wifi connection but then connecting again almost immediately. My data network isn't great at home and that means, when the wifi drops nothing works.. I've tried everything I can think of.
The wifi doesn't turn off, it's set to never sleep.. It just disconnects for about a second, even when I'm using it.
Any ideas?
Does it only happen to your phone?

Yes, my transformer stays connected and so does my pc..
Edit: Actually I had a weird problem where my transformer pad couldn't connect a couple of days ago. Nothing seemed to work and I think that is around the time this started happening.
Edit2: It seems it happens only when bluetooth is on...
I had the same issue and fixed by typing at the dialing keypad *#197328640# then press the menu button and choose WIFI then disable WIFI Power Saving Mode , after every restart you need to do it again

I read about that and it's not really a solution to me. What bothers me the most is that it only does this when bluetooth is on.
I was browsing through the forum to see if anyone has a similar problem, but this doesn't appear to be the case.
Since I updated my Note 2 (UAE version) to 4.3, my screen keeps turning off completely randomly (even when in the cradle). It just goes blank. Now - the phone doesn't go to sleep and I know that because if I play video, it still keeps playing (I hear the audio). When the screen goes off, I then need to push power button to turn off the screen and turn it on. If the video is playing, pushing the power button will of course lock the screen, so I actually first need to push home button to get out of the video, then power button to turn off the screen and then power button again to turn it on.
Am I explaining this well? So, the problem is not that the phone goes to standby, the problem is that the screen stops functioning and i need to push power button to put it into standby and then back from standby.
It is completely random - I can sometime work on the phone for hour and nothing will happen, and sometime it will happen after few minutes. It doesn't matter what I am doing, whether playing video, browsing web, checking email etc.
Anyone with a similar problem? Anyone, class, anyone? Bueller? Bueller?
