Turning Off Wake up on SMS?

[constitutionalist]

I've tried hacking the registry, also, in addition to trying various freeware that was supposed to cure or change this in other PPC devices. What surprises me is this shortcoming isn't mentioned in the reviews out there - it substantially reduces battery life. At least with the multiple carriers represented in this threat, it seems less likely a clever way for the carrier to curtail use by heavy text users with unlimited plan (my cynical early assumption). I might e-mail HTC directly about this. :/

I know this sounds obvious, but I think I may be able to offer some more evidence to support this, and that is that the SMS software is overriding the registry.

As my TP1 gets squirrelier, I've noticed that the SMS app has developed a bit of an attitude about when I'm allowed to turn my screen off. If I turn off my screen too soon after sending a text, for instance, it turns the screen back on. Sometimes it does this a couple of times and we go to war. Other times, when I try to turn the screen off, it simply refuses and just stares back at me as if to tell me it will no longer serve me but I will serve it.

It's actually a bit like Washington.

Anyway, I think a possible resolution to the wake on SMS on the TP1 and possibly the TP2 (as well as the XV6700) is to deal with the SMS software itself.

I'd be interested if those using other ROMS sans this SMS or who have removed this SMS software and replaced it with another are still having problems.

I've been having this issue myself for quite some time. I've had the problem on all ROMs that I've used (Stock, Mighty ROM 5, then 6, now using custom built using calkulin's kitchen). I've tried both with and without TF3D enabled as well as cooked it out of a custom ROM at one point, and this option has always been set to "1" AFAIK. I agree that it may be in the SMS software, but it doesn't appear that it is HTC specific, since it happens whether TF3D is in play or not.
