Apps not sleeping

Hi I just got my incredible 2 and activated it last night. I installed all my apps. And my phone is not sleeping almost at all. How can I find out what apps are keeping the phone awake?

Menu/settings/display/screen timeout set for the duration of your choice.

Install spare parts from the market and it should show you battery history. Other usage, sensor usage, and partial wake usage are important. That may help. Also I like CPU Spy also free in the market that will tell you how much time your cpu spends in each state in an easy to read format.

Actually I had the same problem on my old phone (from which I copied all my apps ) and I've been using spare parts and CPU spy both show that The phone is spending very little time in sleeping state. I believe this must ne due to some app/s that are keeping the phone awake. Also on battery usage under settings there's a graph showing awake time which is almost the whole time.
So what I need to know is how to locate the app that IS causing this.

In spare parts battery history choose partial wake usage and see if anything is high. That sometimes happens when an app keeps wake lock when it shouldn't be. I had a rogue app doing it before and I just wiped and restored my apps and then restored the data in small batches until I found the problem. I just started new with the app and all was well. Something must have been corrupted.

Spare parts battery history doesn't work with GB 2.3.4

Yeah sorry I forgot. I don't run stock. There is the way I listed (installing data a few apps at a time) or you can try to understand the logcat. Connect to the computer with usb debugging enabled and you need adb running and type

adb logcat > log.txt

Do this and then shut the screen off. Let it run for a few min and then press and hold CTRL and press and release C and CTRL. Then in the directory where adb is you will have log.txt and you can see what acquires wakelock. Keep in mind this file will be a bit daunting so be warned.

I logged a few minutes and all I saw was iKeygaurd. What is that?

Yeah not sure what that would be. I searched the web for it and I can find references to it being a key logging app for iOS bit not sure about what it does here. May get better luck diagnosing at XDA but then again they may tell you to just wipe and start again. Good luck.
