So I'm new to Android so maybe this is a stupid question.... but with my touch pro 2, pressing the power button on top would put my phone to sleep, meaning it wasn't doing anything except waiting for calls, text, email to wake up. It seems my EVO doesn't do this, it seems like it just shuts the screen off. I can only imagine how much battery life I'd save it if truly went to sleep if I pressed the top button. My reasoning for thinking this is because when I look at my battery status, it says "up time" 8:43:55 and "awake time" is 8:43:55.. So they are the exact same as though it was never sleeping.. In Spare Parts the setting that says battery history and "running" says 100%, screen on says 17% and phone on says 2.7%. If it was sleeping "running" wouldn't be 100% right? I may not be explaining myself well but hopefully someone understands my question and can help an android noob out. I searched but could not find my answer for this in the EVO forums.
