I went to turn my nook on after not using it a few days, and it won't turn on. I get a message saying to charge it and try again in 15 min. I have it through the power adapter into the wall, and the light is on, but after an hour it is still isn't turning on.

Are you using the original cable and power box
if the battery is 100% run down, it might take a few hours to get it to fill up.

Where is the setting to make the nooks screen time out, and turn off while charging? Secondly does anybody have any idea why my tablet has been charging so slowly lately?
Sent from my MOTWX435KT using Tapatalk
i think screen stay on while charging because "charging" is one of the possible SOD cause. That's why there is no options (and it's charging slowly because the screen is on..)
Ok thanks, I thought the sod problem was fixed.

Just press the lock button after you plug it in.

I normally do turn off the screen when I plug it in, but until just this morning the nook would die in my book bag due, to it waking up when the nook button was hit in my book bag. Thanks to somebodies help I rectified that problem this morning, but long story short I would charge it when I would go to bed, and it would be too dead to turn on when I plugged it on, so by the time it was ready to have the screen turned off, I would be asleep. Sorry for the long post.
Before I went to bed last night (11:40-ish), my nc was at 48% charge. This morning I woke up (7:30) and my nook was dead. About an hour later after charging it for a bit, I noticed my screen somehow turned back on and I hadn't even touched it. It seems the screen timeout is broken, or the option screen always on when plugged in is broken, because I double checked to make sure it was off. Btw I'm on Nightly 177
May just be my nc though.

It is not broken, nor is it your nook... this is common just like stock B&N ROM works.
If it is dead when you connect charger... when it gets around 15% it turns on... if it is not dead when you connect charger... it does not go into sleep... you have to manually turn off screen by short pressing power button.
Its availabe under Settings->Applications->Developement->Stay awake
but this never works for me here(unselect above option), my screen will never turn off automatically on CM7 while charging.
It does seem like the nook is charging much slower on CM7, even when the screen is off, I remember it charged fairly quickly on stock, but on CM7 it seems like it takes hours, I have left it charging over night, and it has not charged all the way before. I could be wrong though.

I have the same problem too. Is there a way to resolve it? The reason I'm asking is before I turn my device off and go to bed while leaving it to charge and when I wake up, the device is somehow turned on (I have come to realise that the NC turns on by itself at random while charging) and the screen never goes to sleep which causes my NC not to be recharged even after a whole night.
To actually turn the NC off when charging you have to attach charger... THEN hold the power button in until you get the power menu... select Power Off

Of course I did that. What I'm saying is that my NC still randomly boots up. Sometimes after a few minutes, sometimes after a few hours.

Mine does that too (turning on while charging from powered off). It is telling you that it is now charged enough to operate. My solution was to not let it run down so far before you charge (below 15%). And don't turn it completely off. Plug it in and just turn the screen off. Then it charges the whole night without turning the screen back on.
I wonder if it would be possible to have the nook color shut back down if it loads into the os or recovery from a charger activation.
With mine as Long as the battery isn't dead when I plug it in, If I turn it off while its plugged in and not move it at all it stays off, but if I move it in any way it turns back on. Don't know why but movement fires it back up when plugged in.

Seems to be a bad connection....same thing happens wirh my nook also...I plug the cable in, put the nook on one of my floor shelves, turn it off, and leave it to charge overnight....then again ANY kind of movement while the cablle is plugged in to charge OR use usb storage makes it disconnect....maybe a bad cable, unfortunately I haven't found them in stores anywhere lately..

I had to reboot mine in to flash mode in order for mine to come back up. I had to hold the down volume (or up cannot remember right now) + power for a minute nearly. Then it rebooted correctly into normal mode.

So I ended up calling AT&T and they went ahead and shipped me a new MAHD.
I took the dead phone to work and tried charging with my work charger, and now it works! When it finally turned on, the battery level was at 3%. So lesson learned: Do not let your battery drain to 1%!

I am having the same problem. I can get the boot screen up if i hold the buttons in at a certain time while the phone is plugged in and attempting to turn on. however, the phone cuts out no matter what and repeats the cycle even with the boot screen up. during the few seconds i can get the boot screen up, i'm unable to select an option, only scroll up or down and highlight them. then the phone cuts out and 20 secs. later attempts to turn on again but never gets past the motorola icon. Any suggestions? I originally thought it was the battery so i ordered one and installed it correctly and charged it, but still the same thing is happening. When plugged into a pc, charge light comes on but phone won't attempt to turn on....?????????

Our phone doesn't receive power from the cable until it's fully booted. Factory cables are a good work around.

Hi, I was using my XZ yesterday flawlessly and then out of no where it just turned off. I did everything I could find on the forums but it just sits there with the red Led permanently on. I left it charge overnight, when I woke up the led was green and the screen said it had a full charge. I turn it on, it gets to the lock screen and then shuts down again. It's sitting there again with the red led on as if the battery was drained completely in 1 min! What can I do about it? THANKS!

Hmm... Try doing this:
Get it charged till you get the led green, KEEP charging, and then turn it on. See if you can use it for 5 mins, 10 mins, even an hour. See if it turns off automatically. If it works fine while plugged, then that shouldn't be the problem of your ROM. Then, unplug the charger, and see if it shuts down soon. If it does, we can make sure it's the problem of your battery.

I'm gonna check that out thank you! .. and I'm pretty sure it's a ROM problem because it was fully charged and yet it shut down never to be woken up again til 5 min ago that I connected it to the PC and it briefly showed me the charging screen (battery completely drained) and then the Red Led came back on and the screen went away as soon as I disconnected it from the PC. I connected it to the wall charger but the screen didn't come on again. Thoughts about this? (also the computer briefly recognized the phone and then it didn't anymore) right now is plugged to the wall charger to see if the battery picks up, so I can proceed with all the flashing stuff.
What causes this type of problems? I really had high hopes with this phone, it's gorgeous to look at (the best design on a phone IMO) but it failed me
I looked in the previous threads about non-booting but no one I could find had my issue. Bought the Nook HD+ about 4 months ago and rooted it and installed Android (not sure which version but cm11). Out of the blue, last week I pulled it out of my bag and the battery % was flipping between 1% and 31%, so I put some stuff on it via USB and then shut it down to charge. I plugged it in overnight and tried turning it on in the morning. All I was getting was the low battery picture, so I kept trying to charge it, but it wasn't charging, the power light would go to orange when I plugged it in, thena fter 3-5 seconds it would flip green and then turn off and retry. My assumption is the battery is dead, but it could be a corrupted OS now as I got it to charge long enough to get to the CM11 boot menu. But I even went out and bought a new charger and converter to rule that out and it still is stuck in the same boot sequence. I obviously can NOT charge this thing while it is off because of it's reboot loop, it can't charge. I'm not quite sure what is going on or whether it is a battery or boot issue but after I leave it for a big it freezes on the cyan picture (which is frozen on some scrambled version of it) until I turn it off.
I can't power it on enough to charge it to rule out the battery, I tried holding the power and n button for 3 seconds, letting go of the power, and then pressing it again to get into the recovery menu, but that isn't working either. And I prepared another SD card for a second flash for a corrupted OS and that didn't seem to work either.
I'm stuck here and I'm not sure what to do now to get it running again. I don't care about the data on my tablet at the moment.
Try plugging it into a PC USB port over night.

That's what I did that got it charged enough to get to try to boot, where it now shuts down. But now as it tries to boot it reboots, maybe from too much power consumption? I only had it plugged in for half hour or hour before that got it charged to the point where it boots to the logo screen. I have a feeling it is not charging because every reboot the light turns off (orange light stays on for like 5 seconds)
I will plug it in to my PC and charge it overnight and let you know what happens. It's interesting, I plug it in now and the orange charge light comes on, shows the Nook screen, then shows the low battery screen and shuts off, then the orange light turns off, but it remains plugged in... not sure if it is still charging but as I said, I will leave it overnight and see what that gets me.
No success. I can turn it on and the charging lights turns on for 5 seconds and shows the nook screen, then goes black and shows the low battery screen, then immediately shuts off and the charging light turns off and it no longer charges.
Any other suggestions? I can't seem to do anything with the Nook now.
I bought my Nook HD+ in 2013 and it has been a great companion all along. About two years ago, I noticed that the battery was not what it used to be, requiring charging too often. Last year, I installed LineageOS on the Nook.
About three months ago, something happened to the battery so that the Nook would turn on and be usable only if the main power was connected. If I switched off the charger, the Nook would immediately shut down - and by shut down I mean it would just blink off, not shut down over a few seconds. Also, in the shut off mode, it would lose battery a lot, like 20 to 30 percent in a day, without any usage.
Then, about a month back, I forgot to charge it for three straight days and now it won't turn on at all. When I connect the charger, the charging light turns from green to red, and stays there, indicating the battery is charging, and the back of the Nook also becomes hot, but whatever I do, it doesn't turn on. When I press the power button, the screen comes on and shows the charging icon for a second or two and then goes off. I've left it charging for a couple of hours, maybe six or eight or so, but it still won't turn on.
If I remove the battery and turn on the main power, the charging light keeps blinking green and red over and over. So, is there any way to use the Nook without the battery, running it off the mains power only? And if there isn't, is there any way to turn it back on? I've already gone through the threads here and tried some of the things but nothing has worked. I don't have a higher power wall charger, and it is not possible to go out in the present condition, what with the lockdown and all.
Please help.

I know that, if the tablet runs dead, you _have_ to put it on the original Nook wall charger and let it sit overnight... mine just went dead a couple of days ago and I tried just plugging the cable into a generic USB charger, but it didn't charge. I then remembered this and plugged it into the Nook charger and it charged overnight.
If I remove the battery and turn on the main power, the charging light keeps blinking green and red over and over.

I have no idea about this part... I've never taken mine apart (I wanted to buy a replacement battery a few years ago but they ran out and I never found more). Update: I just searched and there are a few battery replacements listed with Google search, I just don't want to pay 40.00 to 50.00 when I can buy a new tablet for a little more than that.
I usually just leave mine plugged into my bedside clock and it keeps charged, or if I unplug it plug it back in within a couple of hours.
Hope you find an answer.
better off buying a new tab
