Well, best suggestion is to use a locking app and set it to shut off device after 1 minute or 30, 20, or 10 sec on battery power and battery drain will be minimal.

yea but some are just too ignorant to realize this and would rather scapegoat MS for their problems.

My TP2 was sitting right next to my Epic for several hours. They were both connected to my Airave sitting about 3ft away. The TP2's screen turned on very damn frequently and the Epic had not turned on once.

I have not received any calls, texts, or other data connections during this time (midnight to 6AM). It is also worth noting that both phones were running the latest stock Sprint roms with absolutely nothing added or modified with the sole exception being Sprint network activation under my account.

After two seperate two-week test phases, the Epic had not turned on a single time while being connected to or switching to/from the Airave. These results suggest that it's an issue specific to WM (as assumed) or possibly the interaction of WM, HTC hardware, CDMA radio, and the CDMA standard.

Various builds of EnergyRom have not changed anything to the TP2 nor have several kernels and SFR for the Epic. I also get text messages on my Epic where it plays a notification sound and flashes the LED without the screen coming on.

Is it possible that your phone powers on when the Airave accepts a new connection from a different device (or drops a device)? That may be the reason behind the "clockwork" thing... people going in and out of coverage area at a specific time for work/school/etc.

Any updates or fixes by Sprint/Samsung for this?

FWIW my TP2 in airplane mode doesn't turn on at all except to upload its daily backups to my FTP server.
