Phone turned itself "ON"

[erict]

No, mine was not plugged in to the charger any of the times it did this.

Does it turn back on every time you have shut it off? I have only shut my phone off once and will test tonight.

Not everytime. Perhaps every other day now.

And you have stopped this occurrence with a battery pull but the problem returns, correct?

For me that's how it has been. Even after a battery pull the problem still returns....but I think zombiestomped may have fixed this...I'll keep testing.

I don't really want to install a ROM to correct this issue. I can live with other issues but the phone turning itself on is crazy.

You correct. The battery pull stops the restart at that time. but eventually it will do it again another time when i shut it down and power off.

I guess this can only mean one thing: the assimilation is complete, and the Android army is poised to come "alive" and start taking over the world.

While not everyone is experiencing this issue, MOTO is aware of this problem.

Did they say they were doing anything to correct it?

No word on that yet.

Great link. So what we have here is a known issue with no solution in site. LOL!!

Great just one more reason why I don't like this phone.

I tested this and was amazed that my phone automatically restarted after a few minutes of being powered off. The only way to be sure your phone is turned off is to pull the battery.

I notified the FAA about this issue. People with Droid X phones in their luggage or pocket and thought they turned it off may actually be unknowingly violating the law and possibly endangering the safety of others when their phone restarts on its own.

A friend of mine works at a place that would fire her if she had her cell phone turned on while at work. Thankfully she doesn't have a Droid X. I doubt her boss would believe that the phone was off but turned itself back on.

I agree this is an absolute joke. I can live with small bugs but this is major if you ask me. Either a battery pull or factory reset does not solve this issue. I am not a happy camper.

 

[erict]

I have just giving up as nothing solves this MAJOR issue.

Battery pull does not solve
Factory reset does not solve
Clearing Cache does not solve

The only thing that works is leaving the battery out of the phone. Gotta love this

Glad I found this post. Thought I was going crazy. Updated with tbh 2 part. Damn phone has be restarting for about 4 days now. Actually saw the booger do it once. Battery pull and no issue for last 24. 2nd X still on froyo, still not a single issue.
