If I press and hold the power button the menu pops up where you can select Silent Mode, Airplane mode or Power Off. If I select power off it does indeed power down and doesn't use any battery. When I look at the screen in a dark room I don't see the screen like I do when I just do a quick press of the power button.

Not saying this has anything to do with the repack. I was just saying that I didn't have the original firmware on it long enough to notice if it did the same thing. I have noticed the wake up problem also but I also get that with my Android phone (Milestone v1). I think that has more to do with applications that are running that wake up the phone to do checks. Things like Doggcatcher (podcast client) does a check every 6 hours for new podcasts but when I do the quick power button press to turn off the screen I don't see the same things as I do on the IQ. So like I say not sure if its an app I'm running or the firmware or if this is normal. Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this as I'm sure that because the screen is not turned off it is still draining power.
