Hey guys, I love my Razer phone, haven't had any problems with it. I just noticed though, since I just started using the Night Mode feature, that when it goes into night mode sometimes the phone just shuts off. Its not everyday but it has happened a couple times. Anyone else encounter this?

Yup, happened to me last night. It auto triggered based on time of day and when it switched to night mode the phone vibrated and powered off.

Hello all,
Since this morning I have a problem with my DHD. When I turn off the screen, it is supposed to stay of until I turn it on again. Since this morning it starts turning itself on over and over again. Everytime I turn off the screen, it switches on in a few seconds. But once it's on it doesn't go off by itself. So I doubt if it is a problem with the on/off switch. What else could it be?
Edit:
This seems not to happen when the phone is connected with an USB cable. Either on my PC or on the regular power charger.

Have you installed anything new at all. Also have you restarted the phone since it began exhibiting this behaviour. Make sure it's a proper restart aswell by turning off fastboot i settings, it's under power settings I believe.
Thanks for your fast reply.
I have not installed anything new since two days ago. And the problem really started this morning. So I guess it is not caused by a program I installed a couple of days ago.
I have indeed restarted my phone. Also turned it off, toke the battery out and waited a couple of minutes (just to make sure it was really really really turned off) but this did not solve the problem.
The thing I find very weird is that it does not happen when the phone is attached to USB...

Maybe USB debugging, or possibly a short on the mini USB connector. What firmware do you have on the phone?
Android 2.3.3
HTC Sense 2.1
I also think it might have something to do with a short in the micro USB connector. Have cleaned when the phone was of. Seems to have solved the problem, but that's only for the past few minutes...

Hopefully, that's the problem solved.

Darn! The problem still isn't gone. It appears to be less frequent than an hour ago, but the screen still turns on every couple of minutes
This is happening to me as well. The phone screen keeps coming on and then going off after a bit. This and randomly going into car mode and whenever I make or receive calls, the phone speaker is switched on automatically.

Indeed! I just noticed that too. I received a call and my speaker was turned on without me turning it on manual..
Update: my phone stopped switching its screen on automatically, but the problem with the speaker still is not gone.
My DHD has started showing both of these symptoms, ie, switching itself on from standby and the speaker phone being activated on incoming calls .. ever since I upgraded to Android 2.3. I'm not sure if this is something to do with 2.3, the DHD or T-Mobile (my provider) .. or a combination of all 3.
And an app called Car Panel keeps launching ..

I have this problem, too.
Before the last update of my DHD the backlight turns on in standby for some milliseconds. I saw only a short flash in standby.
After my update to version 2.3 this happens everey 7 minutes.
And the backlight is on for about 10 seconds, then turns off for the next 7 minutes.

DHD light off on
I had the same problem going to settings/dock and turning off auto launch and then power setting turning off fast boot appears to work so far
I have a problem with my Galaxy Nexus turning OFF at night.
I goto bed at night and open the clock app and click the screen to dim it. When I wake up in the morning the phone is OFF. I have to pull the battery in order to boot. The battery is fully charged.
I returned the phone after this happened twice and received a brand new one. I have the same problem with this new device. I have changed the power socket and the charger yet still the problem persists.
Is anyone else experiencing similar problems?
I have Skype installed and running which maybe the cause. I will keep it OFF for the next few nights to see if this has a positive effect.
Try it without any off your apps installed. If the problem goes away you know it's an app causing the problem. Then start adding them back in batches until the problem re-occurs. Eventually you'll narrow the issue down to one app.

This is happening to me too.
At random times, the phone will refuse to wake from sleep.
Nothing but a battery pull will fix it.
I don't have skype installed.
Have a look at this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1360880&highlight=sleep+of+death
Mine started today. Really hope this does not keep happening or I need to return this right away. Missed a few phone calls today and didnt realize until I looked down any my phone was just simply black. Will not wake up or do anything at all. You have to pull the battery. Right before this happened my data was dropping non stop about every 5 minutes for an hour.
I'm trying to stay calm because I love this phone, but between the data drops and the phone turning off im loosing patience quick.
This is happening to me as well. With TWO different phones. The first one I returned to Verizon and now its happening on the second one.
Phone will power off while doing random tasks. The two I've noticed is browsing on the stock browser and texting on the stock texting app.
I'm having the same problem. It's happened twice in the 3 days I've had the phone. It hasn't happened while I'm using it, both times it was when the screen was already off -- it just wouldn't waku up. Nothing short of pulling the battery, letting it sit, then powering on would work.
Couldn't have come at a worse time either, my daughter is in the hospital and I get updates from the surgeons via phone. So now I have to check every 5 minutes and make sure the phone is still on.
Phone is bone stock, out-of-the-box.

it does it when i have skype running too. also i have other other audio apps open. (power amp, tunein, pandora) It's happened twice to me and each time it has been during a skype call while the other apps were running. (in widget form)
shock sensitive in the area right below the camera?
My device just "randomly" switches off (sometimes several times a day). After a long search for a reproducible cause, it seems safe to say that at least some devices seem to be extremely shock sensitive in the area right below the camera (on the back of the device). Even minuscule shocks to this area switch these devices off. Youtube-user 'jardinepatten' demonstrates this problem nicely in a video called "Galaxy Nexus Turning Off".
My phone had about 60% battery last time I checked but I just went to unlock it and the phone didn't respond. I tried to turn it on by holding the power button wasn't getting any response from the phone
I've plugged it into the charger and didn't get any charging light so again I held in the power button and nothing! I kept trying and eventually the buttons lit up and it started to boot...
I've had the phone for 2/3 days now and this is the first problem I've had but it's still a little worrying!
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced anything like this? I'm on the 1.26 software.
I had this on one occasion when adding the messages widget to the home screen. When I powered the phone back on I got a request to send HTC a bug report.

Interesting. I didn't get the bug report.
I'm hoping it was just a software bug but I haven't seen any other complaints on the forum yet.
I have just noticed a problem with my phone too, turned it off for the first time last night, on start up this morning it started ok but did not load completely and froze for about 30 seconds on the home screen with no app icons showing. It then rebooted and started up ok with the bug report. I then turned off the fast boot and tried again, it booted correctly first time. Would there be any particular apps which would cause this to happen on fast boot?
Hey mate, currently having the same problem as you. Have no clue what to do. My battery was at about 50% and it just crashed when i was playing riptide. Now it wont turn on or anything. Even when the phone charger is plugged it, it wont budge. Have you found a fix?
This morning, I experienced something strange on my Hercules. The phone display automatically turned off after waking it up within a sec, it happened on and on. Sometimes it would last for 15-20secs then turn back off. Sometimes (very rarely though) it would power up fine and stay that w My timeout setting is 1 min, so it was not because it was timing out. This happened all throughout the morning, then it fixed itself miraculously after 2-3 hours.
I'm running the official CM9 RC2 rom. I don't think it was a software issue as luckily I had nandroid backup from 2 days back which I was able to restore, yet the issue was still there. What do you guys think? My guess is the power button was acting screwy, maybe it was not releasing properly or something.
The answer lies within the depths of your soul. When it is destroyed, only then will you find your path.

Something similar happened to me on aokp milestone 6 with the original kernel.. The screen went off and whenever I tried to turn it on it would back off again almost instantly.. Not giving me enough time even to do anything on the screen.. It kept doing it till I did a battery pull... Haven't experienced that since
I joined the darkside while riding a unicorn
So the last couple of days I noticed a weird glitch that has been happening regularly. Although I think its been happening for a while except recently its got a lot more noticeable.. My screen turns its self on randomly. Yes on. Not off, On.
I can be sitting there watching TV or working and then the screen just lights up, no Messages, no notifications, Nothing.
You may think its not that bad but its rather weird. The other day there was another weird thing that happened where the phone didn't recognize being charged until it was at 11% which didn't show up on screen as charging then from 11% it popped up "Charging 11%" thats fixed itself but the screen is still an issue.
Ideas?
