Help Led's wont turn off

Having a strange issue that after searching for a few days I dont see anyone else having it.

Every once in a while the 3 led's will not turn off. The home, menu and back lights. Then when the phone tries to go to sleep it automatically wakes back up and gets stuck in a sleep/wakeup loop. Sometimes unlocking it and hitting menu twice resolves it but other times I have to restart the phone. Im thinking either pandahome or handcent are causing it but Ive got a few friends running the same phone and those apps that arent having issues. If anyone else is having this happen please let me know.

Uncheck "use wireless networks" in Menu, Settings, Security and Location and see if it continues. There is a known bug with that setting that causes your exact issue.
 
Yeah I saw that a couple days ago and turned it off but it started doing it again. Im thinking it has to do with handcents popup when my screens off but Im too stubborn to uninstall it and use the default app long enough to find out.
 
Weird. I know that Google Lattitude can cause it also. Yeah, there may be something stuck with Handcent. There should be a setting in there to tell Handcent to not wake the screen on new message. Maybe you can try that first before uninstalling it. I know ChompSMS has that setting.
