The screen on my Storm continually comes on by itself. The screen will light up by itself with no touching or vibration. It fades out after 35 seconds but lights up again after another 90 seconds. It does this continually. Here are the times:

On: 48:40
Off: 49:15 (on for 35 sec)

On: 50:48 (off for 1.5 minutes)
Off: 51:23 (on for 35 sec)

On: 52:55 (off for 1.5 minutes)
Off: 53:30 (on for 35 sec)

It appears to be turning back on by itself every 90 seconds. I've been having really bad time with battery life and now see why.

Any one else experiencing this - any solution??

Thanks,
Bert

i've heard its the youtube app.. it's was happening to me earlier.
once your done using it make sure you hit the bb menu button and than hit exit.

Thanks! That was it. Hopefully my battery will last more than 5 or 6 hours now!

Mine has done that, a battery pull fixed it.

I often wonder if they designed this phone for constant battery pulls - why did they bother putting a back cover on the phone?
