Having a weird thing going on now that my wallpaper in metro mode goes black occasionally after sleep, anyone experienced that?

Well (at last) there is a description on: Microsoft Surface Pro 2 update history | Surface firmware updates

January 2014 update
Updated UEFI firmware, version 2.04.0350, to resolve behavior where the Surface failed to enter sleep while idle, negatively impacting battery life.

My SP2 works nice with this firmware installed, but I hope it will works better!!

Specially the battery life!!

I've also noticed that a couple of times in the past few days.

I guess I'm late to the party: just got the update.

It seems like since the update (that I got last week), that my battery life is even better. I'm really loving this Surface Pro 2, even better than the first version.

Tried to change the wallpaper all together on desktop (therfore also in metro) and it hasn't been doing it the last 2 days now. Guess the firmware update made the wallpaper had when installing go a bit weird...

Oh dear seems as if they've mucked something else up now! Albeit less serious.

Depends on the device again... :/
Mine got apparently "repaired". No wakings at all anymore and that was the only issue...
