Sleep mode

Sleep mode saves battery power by putting HTC Desire X into a low power state
while the display is off. It also stops accidental button presses when HTC Desire X is in
your bag. You'll still receive messages and calls though, and missed calls and
messages appear on the lock screen.
To prevent missed calls or messages from appearing on the lock screen, slide the
Notifications panel open, and then tap
Switching to Sleep mode

buttons (or Display & buttons) settings.
Waking up from Sleep mode
