My phone does the same. Random "wake ups".
I've stopped the pocket dialing by locking the device from the "Today" screen. I figure it's just the phone talking to the towers. I keep te phone on my night stand charging and it literaly lights up te room at night when it wakes up.

Now this is the worst part: Yesterday morning, my phone alarm didn't wake me up. Having woken up at the same time for the past few years, I just figured I forgot to check off Monday. (I like to uncheck the days... kind of like a motivational "make it through the week count down".) I looked at the screen and it was PASSWORD LOCKED! Um, I NEVER set a password for this thing. The phone sits untouched on the night stand all night, nothing touched it and it PASSWORD LOCKS!

I tried every password I might have ever used and nothing! I even searched for default passwords. Nope. Wait, it gets better...After you enter the wrong password about 15-20 times, it locks you out for a few seconds. Then each try after that, it double the lock out time! I gave up at about a 2 minute lockout.

I ended up hard resetting the phone. Luckily I did a back-up a week ago.

This morning, the phone woke me up, but CONTACTS was open?!

My phone or hosue is haunted!

I'm going to build a new rom tonight to see if I can drive out the poltergoats!
