When I was looking at this I found that any genuine button press would have at least 70msec between press and release, while the device could wake up to the point of being able to handle interrupts in about 14msec. That is enough of a gap to make it pointless to try to 'fix' the code. With enough verbose debugging enabled that 14msec can easily grow to hundreds, but then if you have debugging enabled to can discipline yourself to hold the button for longer. Ivan: What sort of delay are you seeing between the button press and the interrupt routine running? And can you measure how long the button is typically down for? NeilBrown
