I've seen it on a UA 744 dep LHR last year, where the wheels were down for as long as I could see him, certainly beyond WOD. Leaving Sydney on a 744 some months ago, the same thing happened, and the explanation was due to a defective facitlity to stop the wheels spinning prior to stowage - the engineers advised a 2 min wait before gear up to allow the wheels to stop spinning.
