In the unattended state, the device is still running, but the screen and backlight are usually powered down. The user would look at this as being an off state, but the device is still awake. If no programs need to continue running then the device will go into the suspended state. In the suspended state, all of the programs that had been running are still in memory, but they make no progress since the CPU is in a halted state.
i did not know this! i always thought that pressing the power button and letting the screen turn off by itself was the same thing. is there a way to make my TP go into unattended state when i press my power button. there doesn't seem to be any need for suspended state that i can think of.
