To expand on what gedster wrote, it seems kind of crazy and out there but what about any devices on your network that might send Wake on Lan requests? What if something on your network had located your NOOKcolor. I don't even know why a eReader Tablet would have a function for Wake on Lan but it's just another crazy avenue to jog down.
[Nook Color General] lifeisfun:
I do have weather app installed but I find it hard to believe that it can wake up OS that is not in standby but completely off. WIFI is also not enabled before shutdown.
[Nook Color General] lifeisfun:
Looks like the problem is there only if I used market, if market is not used it will shut down fine and it will not boot on its own.
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
Seems that's unlikely if you're the only one having the issue, I'd keep digging if I were you.
[Nook Color General] lifeisfun:
Looks like you're right I can't replicate the problem every time :(

The timing when it will boot also varies 5, 15 and even 35 minutes.

Don't know what to do, it's hard to imagine how it can boot on it's own from

complete power off state :rolleyes:
[Nook Color General] lifeisfun:
I can't believe I'm the only one with this problem :(
[Nook Color General] oscillot:
I just posted a thread about this issue for me less than an hour ago! Funny, no one replied to mine: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=940713. It was pretty long...guess I should've added a TL;DR.

It happens to me on any (or no) power source. Timing varies like yours as well. I'm going to pull my weather app based on the above recommendation, and I will try your Market theory out. Knowing someone else has this issue makes me hopeful that we can find something that we have in common as the culprit.

I did download the newest Honeycomb image yesterday and I'm going to put that SD card in and see if I can get it to turn itself back on on a Market-less, user App-less build. If successful I'll Titanium my 1.1 apps and remove everything non-system, then slowly add until I get this figured out. Keep me posted if you figure something out, I'll be sure to do the same!

In case it matters I bought mine about a week ago and the serial number starts with 20046.

EDIT: Testing with Honeycomb SD now so if that's the case here it should just stay off. I booted into Honeycomb at 9CST and turned it off at 9:01. I'll give it a couple of hours.
[Nook Color General] woot1524:
I used to have this same problem. I would randomly find my 1.0.1 auto-nootered 950mhz rom nook on, when I knew I had turned it off. interesting part is, this problem completely solved itself after I flashed my emmc with the custom nookie 5.9 img. so it must be an eclair issue and not a hardware issue
[Nook Color General] oscillot:
Really? I've been putting that off because I don't like the idea of not having Clockwork Recovery. I understand there are ways to do the same things using IOMonster's things but I'd really rather just have Clockwork Recovery working. Unless there's a way to get it going that I missed?
[Nook Color General] unknown.soul:
Yup, I've been having this issue as well. I really want to flash NF but I want hardware video acceleration.
[Nook Color General] woot1524:
you are correct that clockwork does not work with froyo. however the bootable sd card that you would burn automatically starts up clockwork first. you can run a backup and restore, as far as i know, without having to reflash froyo. on a personal note, froyo still has some issues but overall I'm exteremly pleased so far. i really just wanted to get rid of all of the b&n stuff (mainly the status bar) along with any possible way of them pushing an update to break root. I would recommend it, but CM 7 with gingerbread will probably be out sooner rather than later.
[Nook Color General] oscillot:
Which I guess brings us back to, why is Eclair doing this, and why does it seem to be limited to lifeisfun and myself?
[Nook Color General] lifeisfun:
I'm glad I'm no longer special :)

My serial # is 200503 .....

Removing all application that I have installed didn't help.

Only 100% way to shut down is to let it boot and immediately shut down.
[Nook Color General] oscillot:
Now that I understand the power of this things SD slot and that CWR can be run off of an SD, I can totally live with that. Hardware Video isn't a must for me yet, so I may take the plunge tonight after work...BTW, what are people's favorite video apps? I have been playing with VLC stream and convert, which works somewhat with my media server's samba shares. I have the share mounted to a directory on the sdcard since many apps look there exclusively.

More on topic, I couldn't get SD Honeycomb to start itself on its own. I tried booting then shutting down. 2 hrs of nothing 15mins light activity then shutting down. 2 more hours of nothing. About an hour of heavy use, seeing what could be installed, sideloading, testing, editing things like build.prop and rebooting often and trying to get swype working (don't think it's supposed to, but that's "heavy use" for me.) Powered down. Went to bed. Still not on this morning. This looks indeed to be an issue with the B&N stock Eclair.
[Nook Color General] danbutter:
Mine doesn't turn itself on with no interaction at all, but will turn on every time when you plug in the charger or cable hooked to USB port in computer.

I can turn it off once it is already plugged in and it will stay off, but remove and replug the charger and it is on again.

Strange.
[Nook Color General] lifeisfun:
Well, strange that only two or three of us noticed this strange problem.
[Nook Color General] brgavino:
Yeah, started for me after 1.1 update. Turned it off last night, tonight it was on with 40% battery! I think its 1.1 related, this didn't happen with 1.0.1 ...
[Nook Color General] oscillot:
I'm sure there's a condition that's causing or exasperating this issue, something common to us all. But at this point since I don't use the Nook as a video player (I actually bought it to read books, but I use Aldiko and the open epub format) I will likely flash Nookie to the eMMC and call it a day. Honestly can't wait to get a clean notification bar on this thing anyway.
[Nook Color General] YertletheTurtle:
Me too.

I mentioned the turning-on-by-itself issue a couple weeks back in the Nookie Froyo thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=10813758#post10813758), but no one else seem to have the problem and since I was unable to reproduce it, I quit investigating. I have not had problems since (running nookie froyo off the card with the 1.1 ghz kernal).

Sorry that I am not more help but it is reassuring to know that I was not going crazy!
[Nook Color General] lifeisfun:
I can confirm that it happens on 1.0.1 as well, since I restored 1.01 from CWM backup but the problem is still there.

I'm tempted to restore to stock to see if it will do that as well, or if the cause is rooting.
[Nook Color General] lifeisfun:
Guys, can you test if the problem persists if you remove SD card ?

I took mine out and looks like that eliminates the spontaneous boot for me :)
[Nook Color General] :
Mine still does it without an SD card.
[Nook Color General] TJNooker:
My nook only behaves this way if I shut it down then plug it into the charger. Plugging it in first, then powering down resolved the issue.
[Nook Color General] lifeisfun:
They all do that with charger but our problem doesn't involve charging at all.
[Nook Color General] GrillMouster:
I'm having this problem on my rooted nook running brianf21's Customized Nookie Froyo 0.6.7 CWR for eMMC (v1).

I've only had the NC for about a week and have been too busy to play around with it extensively. Immediately upon getting it I installed the BN 1.1 update, then rooted with auto-nooter. I sorta had a feeling that I was having this problem, but convinced myself that maybe I forgot to turn it off, and I never tested it out before installing Nookie Froyo internally a few days ago. I started getting that nagging feeling again that it was turning itself on, and tested it a few times today. Sure enoug I'm having the problem.

Here are some observations:

I start the power-down procedure by long-pressing the power button. The menu comes up asking if I want to turn on Silent Mode, Airplane Mode, or Power Off. Sometimes right after I select "Power Off", the screen turns goes dark and I have to press the power button again to wake it up so I can select OK on the next pop-up window that says "Your phone will shut down". After I've done that, the NC shuts down (verified by the fact that pressing the "n" button doesn't turn on the screen).

I've also noticed that when the NC is off, I don't have to press the power button for long before it starts up. Not sure if this is normal. I only have to hold the button for a full second, not two or three.

I haven't timed it to see how long before it turns on by itself. I just turn it off, set it asid by itself, where the power button can't accidentally be pressed, and when I check on it later, pressing the "n" button immediately wakes up the screen, as though the device was already on, just sleeping.

Finally, I'm thinking that it may have something to do with being charged. I notice this happening after I've had the NC charging. I unplug it, power it down, then later in the day I notice that it's on again. I think that if I shut it down a second time after it has been unplugged, it stays off. The problem doesn't resurface until after the NC gets plugged in again.

If I have time I'll try testing this theory.
[Nook Color General] absskier:
im having the same problem

using nookie froyo 0.6.8 emmc
[Nook Color General] GrillMouster:
I restored to stock 1.01, then went to customized froyo 0.6.8 v2 and the problem went away (I think). However, I can no longer play video.

Edit: I spoke too soon. It's still turning on by itself. While here at work I've left the NC on my desktop in front of me and I noticed it turning on by itself about ten minutes after I shut it down.

I'm wasting too much time troubleshooting this dang device. If I assigned a modest value to all of the man-hours I've spent researching and working on this thing I would have more than made up for the difference between the NC and the Galaxy Tab.
[Nook Color General] GrillMouster:
I can't believe that if this device is shut down that an app or setting would cause it to turn itself back on. However, the device does automatically turn on when it's plugged in to a charger (as it's supposed to, and as most Android devices do). This got me thinking that it could be the port, something physical, that causes the problem.

Last night after flashing back to unrooted stock, then going back to Froyo the auto-start problem went away. I charged it overnight using OEM charger and the problem came back. It kept turning itself back on about 20 minutes after I powered it down. I tested it a dozen times. At work I charged it a little with my Droid X's charger and the problem hasn't resurfaced since then. I think the OEM charger in the NC's microUSB port that for a second makes the NC think that it's charging, and it turns on. The problem persists until the NC is charged by some other charger. This a theory. I know the OEM charger is longer and has a couple of pins that normal microUSB cables don't have, both of which could be related to the problem. I and several others have had other problems with the OEM charger (phantom touches/haywire screen touch sensitivity when it's plugged in), so this could be it.

I know that low quality chargers have caused similar touchscreen problems with other Android phones.
[Nook Color General] KitF:
I've been having this issue too. I only really notice when I go to boot things off SD card while I'm changing SD cards.

I don't usually keep my nook off otherwise.
[Nook Color General] GrillMouster:
I didn't have the problem on unrooted stock, which leads me to belive that it's not a hardware problem, but, rather, a problem with the ROMs. However, it's happened with every ROM I've tried. So few people are reporting the problem that I wonder whether only a few NCs are affected or whether it's more common, but people aren't noticing it because they rarely turn their devices off.

When Wifi is off, screen backlighting is turned low, and screen timeout is set low, I guess the battery life is low enough that it shouldn't be a problem. However, when I go to bed, a movie, or anywhere else that I don't want a notification or alarm to sound, I'd prefer to just turn it off (and have it remain off) rather than always having to turn of wifi, turn down the screen brightness, and turn down the volume.
[Nook Color General] variable47:
FWIW, I've noticed it too. Several times I noticed it was back on when I explicitly did a shutdown earlier. I've been running various combinations of Nookie 0.6.7/0.6.8 and Dalingrin's 1.1 GHz kernel.
[Nook Color General] GrillMouster:
I thought the OEM charger was related. I tried my Droid X's charger today and thought was working until later this afternoon. The NC turned itself on again.

A few hours ago I created a power down widget using Widgetsoid2.x. (there's also a free app called Quick Shutdown in the market that sounds like it would do the same thing). In the lasts few hours the NC hasn't restarted itself when I shut it down using this widget. Fingers crossed.
[Nook Color General] kschumake83:
I think my problem may be related to this. If I am not on the charger and my battery is low my power button goes nuts. turns my screen on and off and the power off window comes on and off. Im not sure if this is a hardware issue for me but ive only had the nook for a couple hours so im going to research this a little bit more. Btw im running the 2/25 version of nookie froyo
[Nook Color General] kenp1980m:
Same here

My wife's Nook does the same thing. We have the latest stock rom rooted on hers. We've only noticed it happen when it's not charging, but she doesn't charge it very often so....

Hello group,

Wish me luck. I am about to start my first root/rom install. Going with Andromeda. This will be applied to my 5th replacement phone for the auto shut down issue. It just arrived. I am getting tired of getting replacements and waiting for a good one so that I can go to 2.2. I have read the guides. I have a couple questions that I can't find a clear answer on.

1) I already have a paid version of mybackup pro. Can that be used instead of titanium?

2) My phone is up and running on the stock 2.1. Is it normal to restore all apps, data and system settings from the 2.1 phone to the 2.2 install? Are the system setting compatible between the two?

3) I think I recall some mention of writing down some number from your original phone so that if you have to set it back to stock for warranty. I don't see that in the official instructions though. Is there such a precaution necessary?

Thanks in advance.

[Captivate General] zelendel:
1. should owrk

2.Never restore system data. Your just asking for trouble if you do.

3. Back up your efs folder from system and copy it to your pc. As roms chnage android id and imei
[Captivate General] psloan:
cool thanks for the quick response. Nubish question from your response. How do I backup the "efs" folder I don't see it using the phone to browse the files or mounting the phone via usb and browsing via the pc. Do I have to root it first?
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Yes you will need to root it first and then you will need a files explorer that will allow you to get to the system files. I use Root Explorer my self. One of the few apps that is well worth the money
[Captivate General] rquiett:
good luck with the first go at it. I just did the same the other day and must say best decision I made with this phone.
[Captivate General] sircaper:
What everyone else said is good. I would also back up your contacts and write down your APN settings. Some ROMs change the APN.

Contacts:

1) Contacts > menu button > Import/Export > Export to SD Card > you will get a vcard file saved to your sd card. You should also back this up on your pc.

2) You can also sync your contacts with your gmail account. I usually take the vcard from earlier and import it into gmail.

APN:

1) Settings > Wireless and network > Mobile networks > Access Point Names > just write down the settings in case they change in the future.

You will be nothing but happy after flashing. I do not mpost much on here, just read and read, but this site is excellent in finding what you need. I ran Phoenix for a while and it was very good, but I have flashed Serendipity 5.0 with the latest Speedmod kernel and its working great. Battery life seems to have improved for me with this combination.
[Captivate General] sujesharukil:
So did you flash?? What was the outcome? Success? Check out Ceszar's continuum theme for Andromeda, just love that along with Andromeda 2.0 :)
[Captivate General] rquiett:
I'm curious too as to how everything went for you.
[Captivate General] psloan:
Yes i flashed. running andromeda for the past couple days. seems fine. much faster and the gps lokcs in seconds now. with 2.2 i can now use skype, flash, chrome to phone and use the power button for the camera shutter. All wins for me. I am not sure I get any more battery life out of this setup. I have been playing with it non stop, so I don't have any real world numbers on the battery life. I also learned that mybackup pro can't restore apps backed up from 2.1 to 2.2 I tried 3 times and every time the apps would fail at some point and I wold have to hard close them.

I have noticed a couple times that I have lost the data connections either on wifi or the 3g. Not sure it's the rom, hardware or just plain bad cell sites. but on reboot the connections were fine.

Over all impressed with the dev team for adromeda. They have an irc channel and there seems to be someone always there to answer my questions.

I rolled back to the untheamed 1.0 andromeda and then applied the DMT Dark Theme. did not like the battery meter so loaded modded circle one. Pretty happy with the look now. See the attached running launcher pro.
[Captivate General] SmithEC:
That looks really good.

I wish I had seen this thread before you installed that new ROM. I would have told you that stickies are for sissies.

Do it all from the seat of your pants and depend on luck. That's what I say. (j/k)

Do you see that business about restoring all system data? I tried that yesterday, I think it was. Got a good install of Paragon RC5. I think I then tried a full system data restore from TiBu. Rebooted the phone and it started back up so that it required a PIN to unlock it. I guess because I had been using that function before install of RC5. The PIN did not work. Tried this method not only once, but twice. Finally figured out how to use TiBu for real, I think. Makes me wonder if these locking schemes are worth using. I suppose they might buy you just a little bit of time in case of theft.

If you get to jonesing for something new, check out the ROM mentioned above.

Glad you're happy with your efforts!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] akhan360:
Hey guys,

There is no audio, when making and recieving phone calls!

I have a GSM Tilt2 (att branded), and the microsd I'm using is a class 6 4gb microsdhc. I connected my phone via usb, formatted the microsd card as fat32 (not quick format), and unrared the contents of the reference release of android 2.2.1.

Booted into it (haret via file manager) it was smooth, but i didn't get any reception.

Restarted into winmo, and launched xdandroid. updated it, unticked cdma, and checked everything else. overclocked at the lowest setting, then booted into android.

I got reception 1-2 bars, received phone calls, but when I picked them up, I had no audio. Person on the other line couldn't hear me and vice versa. Searched around and ppl said to use an updated kernel (1253, not the modules, just zimage). I now had the 3G icon with the blinking up/down arrows, and it's still the same problem.

Can anyone help me out, im sick of winmo ._.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Why would you use a kernel and not the modules?

In theory the only thing that is broken is wifi. Did you remove the old zImage and rename this one to "zImage"?

Also, are you using FRX04?
