This is my first nook. I did some trading to get it. It had cm9 on it when I got it but it a tad laggy so I put mirages cm7 on it using from manager. It has been running great ever since and today I put it on the counter(battery was around 60%) I took it to my room a little later to charge since I have to work tonight but before I plugged it in I tried to wake it up but the screen would not come on. It will not do anything at all. Never owning one I have no idea how to diagnose it.

Welcome to the Sleep of Death - I have this happen occasionally too.
Hold the power button for ~10 secs, the screen will get noticeably darker when it actually turns off. Let go and press for another ~8 secs to cause it to reboot - you'll get that distinctive flash from the back-light.
I find this happens more often when I leave the wifi on and it goes to sleep, so I'm pretty obsessive about turning that off before sleeping the nook.
What ROM are you running? Stock CM7 or Phiremod / Mirage / etc.?

That was probably Sleep of Death (SOD). Read about it in my tips thread in my signature link.

Sorry about posting the thread here as I couldn't post it where it needed to go. I have had this GT 10.1 for a few days love what it can do but It continuously wants to go to sleep and not wake up. This is a locked rooted 32gb version.
I have noticed while it is in the dock it tends to only lock up on the home screen and it solved by just removing it from the dock and inserting it again into the dock. When its not in the dock it does the Sleep of death and If i plug it back into the dock while is SoD it will come back to life. I don't have any idea if this helps with your deductions on dealing with this bug. But I thought It could help somehow.
I didnt plug the dock into any power source either.
Well I tried doing the above now its boot looping DARN I REALLY like this thing
after the 3 or 4th SoD the OS got garbled and I had to do a factory reset and reload the OS using ODIN and back to Stock.
Gonna remove the OC kernal witch I had loaded and reload the STOCK OS until its fixed.
I have this problem, my tab 7 days old is dead... I was using it, turn it off connect it to charge it and it is not working now..
Is there any fix or way to get out of the sleep of death?
the asus transformer forum says it's fixed with 3.1 (mostly).
i guess it's the reason why the EU release is delayed permanently.
guys i dont thing there anything wrong with the tablet. i believe its the wall charger.ur usb on ur pc or laptot is not ready to charge ur tablet but it will at a slow rate, really slow.i tired charging it with the wall outlet n it would not do anything. called samsung thay wanted me to send it in for service.i said no.i have it charging with my laptop.that work for me.give it time to charge and u'll see it charging.the cable is good its the big box that plugs in to the wall thats bad.
gt 16gig gray unlocked

Mine wouldn't turn on for the life of me yesterday...exchanged for a brand new unit at best buy....wtf!
Mine does the "Sleep of death" only with custom firmwares and when charging on the media dock...going back to stock fixes the issue...to wake up the tablet I had to make a combination of Power + Volume Down for several seconds until it finally turns on...
Mine was stock. No combination of button presses worked for me
Same with mine. I just shipped it back for repair...

You just need to hold down the power button for 15 seconds, or so. Maybe 30. I've had this issue a few times in the few months I've had this. My bigger problem is the Wake of Death. The stupid thing turns itself on for no reason, and never goes back to sleep, so the battery is almost dead when I go to use it. This happens a few times a week. Drives me crazy.

same here...my first one died...my exchange unit randomly freezes, but the volume and power button works, unlike the first unit
So I got my thrive yesterday and I love it, out of all the tabs out, it just feels like it is the smoothest, graphically and strongest, hardware wise. I haven't had any problems until this morning when I woke up and tried to wake up my thrive, and unfortunately it would not wake up, so I had to do a hard reboot by holding down the power button until it shutdown, but it booted right back up. So here's where I think I went wrong, I turned on the GPS yesterday and didn't know I had left it on overnight, thought it would turn off when you stopped using maps, for what reason? I don't know why, but I did. Either way I think that there are certain programs that cause problems with the sleep of death, and that's the reason it may have happened to me. But if anyone has any ideas as to why this happened, then I would like your input.

Actually, GPS is not active unless an app is accessing it. You can leave it on. As for the SOD issue, Toshiba released a fix today and it should fix it.
Thanks, and I got that update, it fixed it.

Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda premium
I believe this is what they call a SOD.. 'sleep of death'... I've seen it as a common occurrence for some on CM9 based ROMs but not CM7, but in all fairness I haven't followed the CM7 stuff too much.
I'd try reading through the entire development thread of the ROM you are running and see if others are experiencing the same thing along with any possible fixes.
Hope this helps.
Hah I was reading hash's new thread when my KF did the same thing. The screen flashed on, it made a weird noise, and then promptly died.
It's like a SOD+Zombie reawakening.
today this happens again!
i charged battery to 100%
and then i slept when i woke up screen was on and battery was 30% left

Just wipe all the caches and see if it repeats. If so just reinstall the rom. There's only so many options you have.
thnx for reply i have done this and now it seems that problem has solved

I sit with mine on my desk while I work and Ill sometimes look up and the screen will be on when I know its been locked for a while. it doesnt seem to matter if its plugged in or not.
I was thinking it might have to do with my ROM (paranoidandroid) but if other people are experiencing this it might not be.
its an app or process waking the device. or a bad power connection that connects and disconnects(if plugged in).
Mine isn't even unlocked or rooted... soooo who knows what it can be lol

I'm having the same issue, but only when my N7 is being moved (even gently!). Several times, I've manually put the device in standby (with the power button), or I let it idle and then go into standby, but when I pick it up, the screen turns on. I haven't noticed the screen turning on while it's sitting still on a flat surface, but then again, I haven't really hawked the device while it was sitting still. This wasn't an out-of-the-box problem. It just started happening on my 3rd day of use.
Anyways, this gets pretty frustrating when I have my tablet in my bag or pocket. I checked to make sure I wasn't accidentally hitting the power button to wake the tablet back up by putting the device on standby and then gently tilting the tablet. That was enough to trigger the screen to turn on.
The power button doesn't appear to be visibly loose either. (My tablet doesn't go into standby when I jostle it, if that matters?)
By the way, I haven't really moved my N7 while charging, so I can't verify whether or not this issue occurs during charging as well. But I guess I can rule out charger issues. Maybe something's loose?
Side notes: I AM unlocked and rooted; did this on day 2. Haven't gotten any new apps between the time my tablet last acted normally and the time when it started turning on during sleep (during day 3).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Might be the smart case magnets. Putting magnetic stuff near the screen turns it on.

This almost always is caused by a rouge app. Use watchdog (there is a free version in the market) this can help pinpoint what app is misbehaving. Also, if possible try to get a logcat of this, of course if it feels random it may be hard to capture the information needed but if you do you will no exactly what the problem is
Oh and as a side note, wakelock issues can happen to nonrooted phones/tablets just as easy as with rooted ones

I'm having this issue as well... But I can't figure out what the heck is causing it! Anyone find a solution? I'm using Paranoid Android... could that be an issue?
No one find the solution yet? In stick and rooted and having the same problem.
Why is the door on the right always locked?
Fully updated stock not rooted on 4.2.1. I first noticed this issue after updating to 4.2. Screen wakes every 3 to 5 minutes and stays on for @30 seconds each time. I left it sitting on the couch next to me while watching TV last night.
So it is affecting the stock ROM as well.

had the same problem. It was an calendar widget app that cause the all 30sec screen on. I have deleted the app and it's all fine now.
Which app?

Quick Agenda. Replaced with Simple Calendar Widget.
I have neither. Too bad

Spolier alert! This is the plot of Paranormal Activity 5. Possessed N7s. At the end it turns out it was iOS the whole time. It would have gotten away with it too if it weren't for us meddling XDA folk.
Serious note I have had this happen before and as previously stated it was a rogue app accessing background data.

Bought a refurbed 32GB WiFi from sears on Jan 2nd and had no issues except for a screen flicker. I was running a CM10.1 build from around Jan 26th and the latest Motley Kernel.
Yesterday I was using the tablet as usual, but I hadn't charged it in a couple of days
so the battery was getting low. After I got home from work I went to use it but the screen wouldn't come on. I figured the battery had died so I went to charge it, but I never got the powered down battery animation. I've tried holding down all 3 buttons for at least a minute and nothing is happening, and when I connect to my computer I get a USB not recognized error.
I have about one day to return the device to sears with the 30 day warranty, but I just thought I'd check to see if anyone else was able to resolve a similar issue before I do so that I don't lose all of my data, and the fact that if they do get it running again that its rooted and running CM.
Any suggestions, or should I just take it back?

AW: Tablet bricked itself?
One thing I learned from here, is that I never ever should let the nexus 7 run out of juice. Seems to be a death sign..
Jup, take it back.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Not a death sign.
You just need to let it sit on the charger for about 1/2hr, then it should boot right up. People panic when the device doesn't respond or screens start flashing, but it won't boot and they start mashing buttons and posting about their 'I think I bricked my device'. After a device has run down it might take a long press of the power button to get it to boot and/or sit on the charger for a bit.
Running the battery down should not be confused with the Sleep Of Death (SOD). The fix for an SOD is also a long press of the power button.

try connect to charger at least a half an hour, then press just power button for 1 minute. i had similiar issue, and it worked for me. if dont work, maybe you got battery connector loose problem. try search in general section about that.
