Just the screen, or does it power off completely?
Is it shutting off while you're touching the screen? If its turning off when you're not touching the screen you might accidentally be hitting the sleep/wake button. Or it could be your screen timeout. It may be set to a quicker time. Go to settings>display>screen timeout and check wha the time is.

Something's crashing. Start uninstalling your recent apps. Don't forget about updates.

I had that issue for a bit, I ended up restoring from a previous backup. Worked okay after that. My screen was shutting down/turn off. This also happened for a bit when I wasn't able to do a full for a day.
You most likely have a buggy app that is crashing the UI. I had this until I got rid of some crappy apps that wanted to run in the background that was for mapping 4G coverage.

I have a i9020A and my screen will not time out. I have it set to 15 sec, even installed screebl and set it to 15 sec....no matter what i do the screen won't turn off unless i press the power button......tried multiple reboots and no fix....how do i fix this? this is becoming a real pain
Try doing a factory reset. I had the same problem. It was not the first factory reset that solved it but the second one. Make sure you do not install the apps immediately. After the facotory reset use it for a day or two and observe. Then install the apps one by one. I think some apps cause this problem.

Is the phone plugged in? There's an option to keep screen alive during charging which may be enabled?

for some reason its working now...no clue what was going on
I'm currently running cm7.02 nightly #94 with a color theme.
I can see that sometimes my phone doesn't sleep properly. There are periods of time 1-2 hours long when the phone is awake with the screen still off.
What is the quickest and the most efficient way to figure out which process is doing that?
Thanks.
Spare parts, download it click battery history and them partial wake lock or something. I'm not sure if it still works. It would force close on sense 2.3 don't know about asop

I like using Process Monitor Widget. Download it from the market. Open it up, then hit menu>record. keep the phone unplugged, turn the screen off, and let the phone sit for like 5-8 hours with Process Monitor Widget recording (preferably overnight). Then, stop recording, and hit analyze. It should be evident what is causing the wake lock.

I'm going to second and say use Spare parts, super easy and it will tell you what is keeping the phone awake.
Man best way to tell is to go to the menu and click on about phone all the way at th e bottom and check your battery there is a uptime and awake time if you are having wake issues both of these numbers will be the same even when the phone is off.
Been running synergy nightlys with latest OTA no wake issues for me.

Most of the time it's when WIFI is on it will keep phone awake I noticed this when it's off phone sleeps like a baby. Some apps can do this also but mostly WIFI seems to do it for me on some nightlys depends on the rom tho .

I have never suffered a Wi-Fi issue like that. Never once have my problems with awake time ever been that. Always is a bad app... Which Spare Parts will show you which is doing it specifically.

Sorry for the delay. When you have process monitor widget open, if you press menu, one of the options is record. Press that to start recording. Let it sit for a few hours, then go back into process monitor widget. When you press menu, you'll see it says recording. Press that to stop recording, then press the analyze button and review the results.

I'm on 2.1-update1, and this has been happening for a long time.
When someone calls me and I pick up the phone, half the time the call stops and the Vibrant jumps onto something else, regardless of how gingerly I pick it up.
I'm thinking the screen is overly sensitive... or perhaps the menu buttons are.
Any way to dial down the screen sensitivity... or some other solution?
Thanks for any suggestions.
I just got my Vibrant last night from a friend to give to a family member out of state. I started messing around with it last night and noticed the same thing. Mine was more like the touchscreen was not calibrated correctly. After soft bricking it a couple of times, loading some ROM's then finally ODIN back to stock, it's been fine ever since. GL
Does the phone app crash or is it more like you hit the home button? I had that problem a while back with a custom rom. Incoming calls would crash the application but I could call out just fine.

No, the phone app does not crash, it closes... and I don't hit the home button either.
Imagine static electricity, and just grabbing the phone messes up the electrical connections...

If you are rooted, you might be able to adjust your build.prop to down the touchscreen sensitivity. Look in the dev forums for that.

That is weird. Any chance you could make a video of that?
Or is the only way to press and hold the button on top of the console.

I was wondering about this myself. I run Nova Launcer. So what I was thinking is if there's a shortcut or maybe a widget I could install to shut it off completely. Haven't checked for those tho..

If you download quickboot from the play store then it gives you the option of making a power off widget. I use that since sometimes I'm too lazy to get up and just want to roll over . Also in the stock launcher there's a power off button but it doesn't shut the ouya all the way off. And then there is editing the layout of the controller itself in I believe system/usr/keylayout/something.kl replace something with the controller or keyboard you wanna change. By the way a .kl file can be opened and edited in any text editing program.

good info gotta try that
I noticed today that when you press the power button on top, the console goes into standby. You need to press and hold for a second then it asks if you want to power down. This is a full power down
HDMI shuts down and even it the screen still has power, that eventually shuts down to.
Let me know it that helps.

The only full power down i found is holding the button on top of the console. The off option the controller gives u seem to only shut off the video out put which can be woken up very easily.

So quickboot is very good. Only thing is , it instantly kills everything. Like physically pulling the plug. Should I be concerned it's not properly 'putting everything away' before shut down? Thoughts?

This doesn't technically turn the OUYA off, it puts it to sleep in a low power mode. While it should be okay, even over long periods of time, it may not be the ideal way to turn off the system all the time.

I had the same issue too, but it can be 'fixed' by changing an option in the menus. If you go into the Manage->System->Advanced menus, then go into Developer options and turn it on via the on/off toggle switch in the top right hand corner, then go down to the 'Stay awake' option and uncheck it. It should shutdown completely now.
But its still to easy to wake up only sure way I found is to hold the button on top of the ouya.

My understanding is that this disables the hdmi wake-up issue, but still allows the controller to wake it up. I was using Android Tuner to shut down the OUYA, but never actually checked to see if it was in some type of sleep mode. I'm fairly certain it was completely off. I haven't fixed su since the last OTA, because I have been content with my setup. Next OTA I'll probably do a full data wipe and try some of the fun stuff that has been created recently.

After doing that configuration change, I found it doesn't wake up unless I activate the controller and turn it on. Before, it would start up again on it's own and just sit at the prompt even after I told it to shutdown.

Yes, that make sense, that's the behaviour I see. I'm guessing it wakes up the Ouya even though I shut it down because I leave my monitor/tv on and it goes into sleep mode automatically. If I turned off my monitor/tv, it probably wouldn't do that anymore.
I have a HDMI splitter with a blue light to show what channel is being used even with this new change the light show active it only goes of when the ouya is powered down from the top button.

Okay, this is plane and simple all, there are TWO WAYS to turn off the OUYA COMPLETELY! This DISABLES the ability to turn on the console by the controller:
FIRST is the built in way of holding down the button till the dialog comes up then clicking it off.
SECOND is to sideload an app that does that with a button press. Apparently some of these DO NOT work and I'm not sure which ones do, BUT if you can turn it on with the controller it is NOT all the way off.
ALL other ways will NOT completely turn it off!
IF you can turn it on by the controller it is ONLY ON STANDBY/SLEEP

I'm not sure what all the shouting is about. I think the last few posts were clear about whether or not OUYA was asleep or off. I may setup su tonight if I time. I have had an unlucky streak of OTAs releasing within a few days of every time I setup su. Only a big deal because of the plug being a pain to access in the cabinet. Wireless adb has caused a few people headaches I'd rather avoid. If I do, I'll verify what the shutdown command does in some root apps.

hello
i have note 4 n910c with 6.0.1
My screen doesn't automatically time out if I press the home button or the power button to turn on my screen. In order for the screen to turn off, I have to manually press the power button. Otherwise, the screen just stays on and drains my battery !!!!!
I should also note that if I receive notifications, my screen lights up and I have to either dismiss the notification or manually turn off the screen.
i downgraded to 5.1.1 it worked for few days then the same issue again
i formatted my device and flashed most recent stock rom 6.0.1 again few days and the same problem screen not turn off automatically
any solutions?
by the way when i use smart manger and end all RAM applications screen turn off work good immediately then after few minutes not turn off again
You can try widgetsoid app, that haves a big list of toggle widgets, and no lock screen is one of their widgets.

Confirmed same issue here. Also same issue when using s-cover. Very annoying. Now that I've trained myself to manually turn off the screen, I'm getting much better battery life than I was with LP.
