I've been a lurker in this forum, but I wanted to share my experience on this issue.
Preface: I did a factory reset (#3), and I installed no apps outside handcent, I changed notifications appropriately. I removed all widgets, icons, etc except for 3 pages. Main page: default clock, small calendar (1x3), People, Gmail, Browser icons, Handcent SMS widget. Second screen (1 to the right). Bookmarks. Third screen (2 to the right): Google search.
Result: This worked fine for me (for about 24 hours) until I did the voicemail upgrade, and I followed the instructions by the sprint rep in the sprint forum (different thread). Voicemail upgrade went flawlessly (again). However, immediately after the upgrade (and multiple reboots) my awake time is back to 100%.
Sidenote: I should add that I'm not using a task killer program and I'm not killing messages at startup as some people have suggested (because I haven't loaded any additional 3rd party apps, and because some people in report killing the Messages app even at the beginning of a reboot may cause SMS failures).
This is just my 2 cents, and my experience. I was trying to get to the lowest common denominator (i.e. not using any 3rd party apps other then for SMS). I'm convinced that although there is an issue with sending sms messages with the default app ... there is also another issue here (besides 3rd party apps).
