Faulty sleep mode behaviour on AMOLED devices esp. Epix Gen 2

Does sleep mode behave any differently on AMOLED devices (especially the Epix Gen 2) compared to non AMOLED devices?

I have some code that is only supposed to run in high power mode.  I have the following code:

    function onExitSleep() as Void {
        $.sleepMode = false;
    }

    function onEnterSleep() as Void {
        $.sleepMode = true;
        WatchUi.requestUpdate();    // this is probably redundant but better safe than sorry (or so they say, I think)
    }
I use $.sleepMode to determine if I should execute some block of code but for some reason it seems like that code appears to be executing even in sleep mode, or onEnterSleep() is not being called.  Unfortunately I don't have an AMOLED device to check this out.  The operation in the simulator is fine and my code is working as expected.

  • I have had 4 users in the past few days complain of a watchface problem on the Epix Gen 2 firmware version 8.37.  The problem seems to be caused by onEnterSleep() not being called or onExitSleep() not being called or both.  They say that the problem did not happen until the "last Garmin update"
