For some stupid reason, the OS will sometimes wake the device when dropping from EVDO to 1X.
I forced EVDO off by forcing roaming on my 6700 for a day and I found that my phone stopped doing this as much. Something else was still waking it occassionally... but I was in a fringe EVDO area so my phone was flipping non-stop between standby and being awake. I left it on my desk at work so I could watch it do it... it was at least 4 times an hour that it would pull itself out of standby.
Luckily, Sprint put up a new tower in that area so I don't have to mess with it anymore :P

I'm not incorrect... I said none of my GSM phones ever did that, nor have I seen one that does. This is correct. My phones never "woke" themselves.
Perhaps there are some 3G GSM phones that do, but since I was on T-mobile (who still doesn't have 3G) this may be a moot point.
Thanks for the insight, apparently this is a 3G problem!
