As the title states, rooted w/ cyanogen... for some reason if i don't use it for about 20mins my book color turns off? Any reason why it would be doing this?

When you say "turns off"--do you mean the screen turns off, or you have to reboot?
If it is just the screen turning off, you can go into tablet tweeks and set the amount of time before the screen turns off. If it is shutting down, needing to be rebooted, then I am not sure what would be causing that.
I meant as in power's off after about 20 minutes or so.. If I let the screen timeout to the set time which is 1 minute or so its fine If i hit the nook button immediatly to turn it on, but after 20 minutes or so it powers off and I have to hold the power button for about 10 seconds too get it too turn back on...this was on cyangen 7.1 encore or something i belive....
I just flashed the MIUI rom and so far no problems with it so let's see
Never mind it's doing the samething with this ROM also......

Are you booting a rom from an sd card, or did you flash a rom to the internal emmc?
Myself, and others, have had issues with booting roms from a card.
Im not booting from sd card not that I know off at least, I just followed guides, installed cwr and cyanogen and now miui... my internal memoryonly comes up as 800mb and mnot the full 4gigs.or whatever the nook came with... wen I connect it to my laptop it shows as 2 drives

I have developed a small lockscreen problem. I can't get the lock screen to come up anymore. When i go into standby through time out of pressing power the screen just goes black and doesn't kick into the lockscreen anymore.
I'm sure its a software error and a re-image would fix it but i'd like to fix this without having to do this.
I'm using mdj gingerbread cyanogenmod 7 v2.3 NAND. The rom itself works perfectly and i've had no problems until now.
I have noticed that the fade out screen that is on this rom doesn't happen any longer. When i press power the screen just goes black. then i press it again no matter the wait the screen just comes straight back on where i left it
Checked through cyanogenmod settings and the lockscreen is set to instant after standby and time out but still nothing.
help i've been calling and e-mailing the world from my pocket!
I don't know what your problem is but I am willing to bet that the issue has been caused by an app that you have downloaded and is now conflicting with the lockscreen. Have you downloaded and lockscreen replacements (eg Widget Locker), or maybe a screen off app (eg Screen Off)?
Either way, perform a restore and you'll be fine.
You did backup your system didn't you?!
Its not from a lock screen app but from a general app just not sure which one. Removed my last few installed apps but its no different. Everything is backed up I'd just rather try and fix the problem and wait to reimage when 2.3 with sense comes out. There has to be a way

I have the same problem. it happend the first time yesterday on Typhoon CM7 2.2 build. so I figured that it must have been an error in that build, so I updated to Typhoon CM7 2.3.3 today, and it was fine until for 10 minutes ago, but now it's back, I tried calling my phone from another phone, but nothing came up other than the backlight, there's still sound and vibration, but no display picture. :S
Lol Ive fixed this now there is an option in battery indicator pro that disables the lock screen. I accidently disabled the lock screen
Please close the thread

i was just about to post it could be that app, i did it on mine last week
Obviously, I'm using a rooted DX. I have liberty 1.5 installed. I also use Droid X overclock. Many times a day, when the screen is off, and I try to unlock the phone, the screen never wakes up, I try pressing different buttons but it just remains unresponsive. Meanwhile , I can see that the phone is still working (the clock, the unlock button, etc. ). It takes like 2-3 minutes, then the phone reboots.
Could the reason be the fact that I make the phone underclock (400,800) when the screen is off?? so it doesn't have enough power to wake up??
PS: NOOB

Thanks a lot. Apparently I'm not the only one having this issue. Too bad, liberty is a good ROM other than this issue.

Hi
I have a rooted stock ROM/Theme MT4G which I noticed last week that it stopped going to sleep. If I set the timeout to 15 seconds (or anything) then right after the timeout is reached the screen sleeps and then within a second immediately comes back on (to the lock screen). It keeps doing that no matter what settings I try. This of course kills the battery life with my screen being nearly 100% of use.
I thought it was related to an app update so I removed nearly everything I could to no avail. Thinking that it was something related to the ROM I decided to try a different ROM. I installed CM7RC2 and low and behold the same problem persisted. I had to disable trackball wake for this problem to go away. I then tried several other ROMs and the problem still remained. I've attempted the various Royal* ROMs and the same problem persisted. Any Sense based ROM was problematic since I had no way of disabling Trackball Wake so I'm now running CM7 (nighties).
The other snag I'm having is that I too have the problematic power button but in my case I have to REALLY press hard to operate the power button which of course is annoying.
Anyone have any suggestions or experience with this sort of problem?
Thanks.
Did you check out the Cyanogen mod 7 in settings ?
I did. That's what I'm running now.what exactly are you suggesting? Thanks.

I have the same exact issue, ive been trying to get some devs to add the disable trackpad wake option in sense roms but so far nothing so right now i use either royalginger or royalmiui im on miui but i really miss sense :/
I had the same thing. I booted into recovery and wiped data and cache and flashed again and everything worked.

I must have done that a bunch of times already but nothing worked except CM7 because I can disable the trackpad wake function. I wish Sense based ROMs allows for disabling the trackpad...that would be greatly appreciated. An even more helpful feature is the ability to remap the buttons.
Is it possible your trackpad is defective? DO you notice other odd behavior that could be related to it?
If your using google voice its the application doing that you can fix this on cm 7 by moving the application to the Sd card.

I believe this is a real hardware issue... It seemed that the optical sensor in the trackpad is broken and it's always sending signal to the kernel telling that it detected activity but in reality nothing was going on, so the kernel can never go into power saving mode.
Sense UI is a CLOSED SOURCE software, there's nothing you can do to patch it.
Since ALL MT4G are still under the 1 year Manufacturer's warranty, you should call T-Mobile/HTC to get it fixed or just get a replacement....
Ok I found a solution for us mt4g owners with the messed up trackpads, you are gonna have to flash virtuous unity rom v. 2.39 and then apply this patch:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/28766802/Virtuous/trackpad_disabled.zip
This patch was made by one of the developers of the rom chrisch1974 specially for this issue, so good luck =D
Same problem, but found work-around
My phone (MT4G) has the same issue but I know why it happened. I got caught in the rain and although I had the phone in my pocket, it got wet. Everything works except that. I left in a bag of rice overnight to no avail.
Anyway, when I press the power button to send it to sleep mode, it just comes back to the lock screen. If I let it time out, it goes out but comes right back to the lock screen. Sounds familiar?
What works for me is holding the home button (the one with the sensor) and, while still holding the home button, pressing the power button once. It is then that I let go of the home button.
Works, but sometimes I have to repeat this charade a couple of times before it sticks. Usually have to repeat it when I don't fully press the home button.
Anyway, hopefully this will help someone that is stuck with this phone and is unable to get a replacement.
Rooted, using Cyanogen... will turn off randomly when the screen times out, when I hit the N button nothing... any idea's?
How's about hit the power button instead of the N button
Try connecting it to your computer, mine does the same thing, and the only way to get it to respond is to connect it to my PC and hit the power button.
My does the same thing.
Mine does this too. Just flashed it with using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1030227 yesterday.
Any fixes?
I just took miui and put nightlies on there so let's see

Idk why you post 2 threads but for me if i turn wifi off before i put my nook to sleep i don't get SOD (screen of death) which is what your experiencing. Give that a try.
mine did the same....
which build is stable and without this problem?
Maybe you should check the dates on the threads... I thought I had this one deleted...I found pressing the power button and not the nook button prevents it from happening so ill try that out also

So I got my Nook Color a couple of days ago. I've been using CM7 off the SD card, but when I just went to turn it on nothing happens. I took the SD card out, still a no go. I even tried using a cwm from sd card thing, nada. The Nook doesn't turn on at all. any ideas?
Try plugging in the nook and leaving it for a little while. Sometimes that helps it reset itself.
Try holding down both the power and the nook button simultaneously for awhile untill it reboots sounds like the sod (sleep of death) hit you. Google it!

Have you tried rebooting your Nook? Hold the power button for 10 seconds or so, then release it and hold it again for a couple of seconds until the screen flashes white.
I just left it alone for a while and when I picked it up a few hours later it came on. It happened again today, I turned off the screen for a minute, went to turn it back on a and nothing happened. Just a black screen. Interestingly, it was still running though, because when I hit the volume keys the tone sounded. I just held down the power button till it turned off and then turned it back on and it booted right up. Any ideas what could be causing this?
Edit: I forgot to mention I'm now running CM7 from internal memory, so its not just instability from running it from SD

I was under the impression that in sleep of death the nook is inoperable, ie the volume keys wouldn't work. Is that inaccurate?

No, for some odd reason sometimes you can hear sound and the volume keys will work. Nothing else will.
To fix SoD: set up two profiles in tasker. One for wifi off when screen is off and one for wifi on with screen on.

tasker fix, good to know, had this happen the other day to my nook
Glad I came across this thread. I updated my ROM to CM7.1 earlier this week and have been enjoying it. Came home today and couldn't get my nook color to turn on. Was starting to panic that it had died. Thankfully it was the SoD and I got it back on.
Thanks for the quick tips on how to get it back up and running.
