Stand alone version. Mogul WM6.1 stock. Set to any periodic mode you like from auto to 1 hour. Logging enabled. Running S2U2 with a 15 second timeout on wakeup.

Behavior: Logs for a few times. Continues to wake up phone randomly (not following actual selected wakeup schedule) but stops logging after a few entries. Works after soft reset for a few times as before.

Did you guys remember to put it in the "don't go to sleep until I'm done getting the fix" power state?
You should not use any automatic update of position on most HTC devices, because if the phone goes back into standby before it FINISHES using GPS, then you will lose GPS until you soft-reset.

I would definitely not use S2U2 at the same time, since it will force the device to sleep, even if it's attempting to get a lock.

For me, I just leave it in manual mode, and it only automatically get a lock when I take a picture. I know this will happen each time, so I make sure to leave my phone on for a bit after I snap a picture.
