Help I7500XEFJB2- Phone never sleeps !!!

Hey friends:

I had flashed my mobile to I7500XEFJB2 yesterday. Thanks to the wonderful instructions from most of you folks that actually made this possible!!

However, One thing i observed ever since i had installed this firmware is the phone is awake 100% of the time and never has gone to sleep when checked in "Spareparts" :mad: :(.

The only apps i had actually installed were GOGGLES, Advanced task manager, Seesmic for twitter, Google Voice, Advanced task killer. Now i have actually uninstalled GOGGLES, Advanced task manager to check if they were keeping my phone awake (will revert back if this shows improvement ).

Need help :thinking: !! Has anyone faced the same issue of phone not sleeping? How did u handle it??
 
My tests reproduce the No Sleep error if I place a call and then let the caller end the call. Like if I call my VM or auto parking attendant and let it time out and they hang up on me rather than me ending the call the phone will not sleep after. But if I make a call and I hangup the phone will sleep as normal.

Each call was made after a fresh boot and Goggles is not installed.

These are just my observations. Can anyone reproduce?

After uninstalling GOGGLES, i happen to find the Sleep issue is taken care of to a larger extent :) Although the phone does not completely sleep as it used to be in 1.5.

Before uninstalling GOGGLES phone was awake for hours together...now after uninstalling i see the awake time to be in MINUTES which is by far an improvement that i see after getting rid of GOGGLES..

Anyways, nothing much i could do with GOGGLES in India as it was not scanning and identifying anything out here...so no real worries in missing it ;)

Sleep issue is system related, not some app. I think it has to do with sound notifications bug.

Listen: The very first boot with 1.6 I noticed weird repeating notification sounds, so I just rebooted phone and sound disappeared. But after first battery drain, I noticed "system" keeping awake my phone so I did logcat:


Code:
E/NotificationService(   94): enqueueNotification :: useDefaultSound = false, notification.sound = null
E/NotificationService(   94): enqueueNotification :: useDefaultSound = false, notification.sound = null
E/NotificationService(   94): enqueueNotification :: useDefaultSound = false, notification.sound = null
E/NotificationService(   94): enqueueNotification :: useDefaultSound = false, notification.sound = null
E/NotificationService(   94): enqueueNotification :: useDefaultSound = false, notification.sound = null
E/NotificationService(   94): enqueueNotification :: useDefaultSound = false, notification.sound = null
E/NotificationService(   94): enqueueNotification :: useDefaultSound = false, notification.sound = null
E/NotificationService(   94): enqueueNotification :: useDefaultSound = false, notification.sound = null
E/NotificationService(   94): enqueueNotification :: useDefaultSound = false, notification.sound = null
E/NotificationService(   94): enqueueNotification :: useDefaultSound = false, notification.sound = null
E/NotificationService(   94): enqueueNotification :: useDefaultSound = false, notification.sound = null
E/NotificationService(   94): enqueueNotification :: useDefaultSound = false, notification.sound = null

I'll try a wipe once again. Damn beta 1.6....

To check if you're hit with this bug do the following:

Type "*#*#4636#*#*" from the dialer. Click "Battery history" and then watch watch two parameters, "Running" and "Screen on". The difference betwean those two should be few percents if your phone sleeps well. If the difference is huge, you have sleeping issue.

Next thing to do is etting adb from SDK working and running "adb logcat" to check if you have those same notification errors.
