Help, is there a logger of any kind?
 

I need something that tells me what is turning on my backlight in the middle of the night.

I leave the setting to turn backlight off automatically unchecked. Because I dont want my phone, which is my alarm to freeze when I am sleeping.

Problem is I wake up every morning to the backlight on... It does it before 2am I think, because I woke up at about 2am accidentally, and it was on.

Is there any kind of logger that will let me see what is running at that time? Preferably right when the damn light turns on?

I dont care really about the light, but I dont want my screen to get dimmer cuz of age, more than it has to of course.

I know this is a common problem, but is there any way to freakin track it?

I've never had that problem or read about something like that. The only instance I know of where the backlight turns on for seemingly no reason has something to do with the device's reception and tower communication. Are you on a EV/1x fringe area or have any signal fluctuations like that where you're at? And to answer your question, I'm not too sure if there's a logger for something like that, I could be wrong though.

I dont have a super strong signal, but I get a constant EVDO signal.

Ive heard it turns on when a program starts a data connection or something. But I dont know, seems like it only does it once a night, becuase after I turned it off at 2am it didnt come back on.

I am running Mighty ROM and alot of other apps are installed. So I dont really know what to narrow down.

If something is running it should be listed under your task manager, I would think.

Mine turns on every night at 11:59, and about 40 seconds, the time changes, then the backlight turns off. I believe it's galarm that does it.

Ahh ha, I just installed G alarm when this started happening. I didnt think that would be the cause though, didnt see a reason for it.

Hm, now IM more curious as to why ...

This is prolly the program that is causing it.

BKhoste, I know that, but since I am asleep and there are multiple applications running it makes it kinda hard to check ya know? I was trying to find out if there was a way that you can see what programs are doing during certian times... Im gonna try turning off galarm for a night and see if thats it.

Anyone know why it might turn the backlight on?
