I think I know what is happening with my N800.

Last night, I woke up in the middle of the night and saw my N800 with the screen on!!! Yep, I left it off.

What can be turning my screen on??

Thanks,
L.

1. lock your doors and windows , vampires roam at night.
2. read through the below manual completely.
http://www.ehow.com/how_6886_kill-vampire.html

3. once the above steps are completed, you will be well prepared. now, unmount, do a file systemcheck.better still a full format and a fresh install, carefully installing apps.

4. this will regenerate fresh blood to keep the vampires happy.
5. gift them with many sd cards. they love them.
6.make friends with them and be at peace.

Understood. Everything seems quite reasonable, except the silver bullet stuff. They don't sell those in supermarkets here, this is not the US!

Thanks anyway,

I am having the same problem with my N800. I have a fully charged battery and just a few hours or so later it is getting close to fully drained. this has just started a week ago. I've read through this thread and tried a few things. I just reflashed last night and it is still doing it. I have 3 batteries and they all do it, so it is not just the battery.
I am running "top" and don't see anything excessive running. I do use the modest email client, but have never had a problem before. After reflashing I thought that would solve the modest problem if there were any.
One Thought: I recently(three weeks ago)bought a cheap external charger from Hong Kong. Do you think that it is killing all my batteries. In a different thread everyone seemed to think that would not be a problem with the chargers.

i did find that my chinese charger can't charge my bats. up to the level the tablet charges them. but if you see the battery level indicated as '10days/7hrs' (do you?) that shoulld not be the cause.

yes when I charged the battery up it does say '10days/7hrs'. I started using the NIT and within 10 minutes battery level said '9days/3hrs". So either my battery(s) is going bad or something is sucking the charge out of it. any suggestions?

recently, I decided to clone the flash memory of my N800 to the internal card.

I created an ext3+swap partition, and I was obliged to remove easy debian 's image in order to free space.

What surprised me, is that battery life is much higher now, it's about 2 times (on idle). but sometimes, it feels that its getting empty faster ...

I'm not sure what caused the problem, but at some point,(before the cloning) I was so upset I removed all of the desktop widgets, and most of tray apps.

I would suggest, that if you have easy debian, try to disable it or rename the image.
