Hello folks!
First and foremost, let me thank you all in advance for taking the time (hopefully) to read this...... dancedroid
I have had the HTC incredible for one week now.
I am a very experienced "smart phone" user with many BB phones under my belt.
I have the "Advanced Task Killer" App and "Task Manager" App on my device.
I do not have Flickr or Facebook active.
I use the Power Widget and keep everything off except wi-fi when needed.
I just did a sleep button depress and left it that way for about 9 minutes.
Upon taking out of sleep mode I am viewing uptime and Awake time as follows:
Up Time 42
Awake Time 33
I gather this is what I DO want to see? It is telling me it DID sleep the entire time after I depressed the sleep button, on top, until I depressed it again? Therefore, nothing is syncing or draining the battery that I am not aware of?
A second problem that perhaps you have found a fix (I hope):
This involves getting audible notifications or vibrations upon arrival of new emails while device is in sleep mode. I get none, only a flashing green LED light. Only when the device comes out of sleep mode will I get an audible notification (but not a vibration, even though I have vibration checked off in all my settings, email and global ones) when an email comes in.
When I am walking around, since the screen is sooo sensitive to every touch, I tend to put it in sleep mode, but then I miss any emails that come in. However a phone call will take it out of sleep mode and ring or vibrate depending on what mode I have it set for.
Is this what your experience has been?
I would like to get email notification (other than LED blinking) while in sleep mode as I do when a call comes in!!!
Any ideas / solutions??
Many, many thanks for any suggestions to a fellow "Incredible" user!

Steve
