anyone else having this issue and/or know of a fix?
I know that's a setting.. at least in the cm10 roms
Look in settings then developer settings and have a look if you turned it on by accident

its not the "keep screen on while charging" option you guys are thinking of. for some reason the screen just stays on while charging. the asus charger it came with does not cause the problem though.
when i first plugged mine in to a charger that wasnt the one shipped with it, it'd keep thinking i was plugging/unplugging it and so the screen would always be on.
Does it alternate between Charging and battery level on the lock screen?
Screen is on when charging, but once it's plugged in and charging, can you turn the screen off by pressing power button while it's charging?
That's how my NC works.

Title says it all...
When you plug in the nook color the screen wont turn off in Cyanogen Mod... This isn't good when you are using <2 amp charging (say 500 mA from standard usb) as the screen uses more power then the charge provides... so it actually drains the battery. Any ideas?
When you say it will not turn off, do you still have a display or just the backlight? When I am charging my nook in standby, I have noticed that the backlight will remain on until I tap the power button. That gives me a black screen

I noticed that recently with one of the later nightlies. I can still power off while charging though, can you?
I put it in sleep, I don't turn it off.
Same problem here. I just turn have to remind myself to manually turn it off whenever I plug it in. Probably some kernel bug or something?
Not a huge problem though. =)

Turn the screen off by hitting the power button.
This is not a bug but a workaround for a kernel bug. We fixed a bug that would cause kernel panic if you let the device sleep while plugged into USB. However, it would still eventually kill ADB so for now I start a partial wake lock when connected to USB.
Just wondering when this might be fixed? Having to worry about the screen being left on when plugged in is a problem for me. I normally charge my Nook from a standard usb. If the screen is on it drains the battery.

When what might be fixed? As Dal just said, this IS the fix for the time being. And it isn't a worry. Just plug it in, and hit the power button; your screen will turn off, and you will be good to go.

The fact it sounded like a temp fix "for the time being" is why I asked about timing. Turning the screen off is fine but I have had one case where the screen turned back on during the night and I woke to a nook that was almost dead even though it was plugged in all night. Even an answer like planned for next RC or for the final release of 7.1 would be helpful.
If there is not fix coming it would be nice to know that too.
I appreciate everything that has been done for the nook and enjoy using it as a tablet.
Using the high capacity cable is not an option. I have tried two in my nook and one would not charge it all and the second was very hard to plug and would sometimes charge it. A standard USB cable has always worked fine. I have read about bad high capacity cables taking out more than one nook so I won't even go there anymore.
Have this been solved somehow?
I have recently mounted my Nook Color on the kitchen wall and it is annoying to manually having to push the power button to turn off the screen, instead of having the screen turn off automatically after a specified time.
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?

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..

Is there any indicator of charging? When I plug in charging there are no indicator of charging once screen is off. Couple of times, while charging over USB, my phone didn't charge at all, and I didn't know because screen was off and there's no indicator of charging exceps icon on screen.
Anyone had problems with charging over USB?
Your usb ports may not provide enough power for charging. Often the case with laptops, sometimes only specific usb ports provide power.
My USB charger works fine but there is NOT an external indicator because there is NO LEDs
battery icon changes when charging

You do not want to keep the screen on while you are sleeping, for example!!!
Try this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.led.notify&hl=en
Makes use of the LED backlit screen, VERY useful.
Not enough power over USB is not likely, because sometime it does charge, sometime it doesn't. On same USB, I charge HTC Desire without any problem.
And I also think that not having indicator of powering is wrong, because keeping screen on is bad solution. There should be a led light indicator or some other way without keeping screen on.
Sounds like a bad cable but if you can charge your desire then i'll guesss it's not.
Stupid question, but have you tried different cables? Different usb-sockets?
Only problem left I can think of is if your connector on the phone is bad.
Mine charges just fine through USB.
Tried different cables, different USB. But sometimes works, wometimes not, so it bugs me. I would hate if it's bad connection on the phone, but just can't find what it is, since sometimes it works, sometimes not.
It would have been nice, afaik the S III has one. But then that's a design decision by Samsung. If you decide you need that LED, you should have chosen another phone.
For me, it's not that that big an issue...

Using NoLED now and powering over charger, no problems so far
When I put my phone on the wireless charger at night, the screen turns on. Its like a beacon in my bedroom.
Anyone know how to disable this? I found the xposed module to turn off the sound, but that's just half of the problem.

Mine only makes a chime. Does yours stay on?
Do you have 'Stay awake' enabled in Developer options (see attached)?
Is the wireless charger magnetized?
Well, it doesn't stay on for long, but its bright enough to cast a light on the celing for a few seconds before turning off.
I dont want it to light up at all.
Its not a magnetic charger, just the little Nokia puck. Worked well withy Nexus 5.
Use a dark black background and the pixels will be off. You could even set it up so it switches to that wallpaper around your bed time or when it gets plugged in.
Just take the battery out.

You can't do that actually. One thing you do is to turn on the adaptive brightness and then put the brightness to lowest, now put it into charging. brightness is too much low with this
What's the trick to allow the Note 9 apps to function while it's wirelessly charging? Currently, the phone won't even charge when wirelessly docked unless I lock the screen or enable Daydream.
Is there a hack that can fix this arbitrary limitation?
There's no hack. The Note 9 functions just fine while wirelessly charging. You have a bug.
Thanks for the quick reply. So, you can have an app like YouTube running on the foreground full screen while your phone is fast wireless charging?
Mine DOES show that it's charging in the notification bar, but the red led on the phone doesn't turn on unless the phone screen is locked. So, it looks like it's charging, but it doesn't actually charge the battery. When doing searches on this issue, I just see others asking the same question without a solution.. even for other Android phones.

Mine charges just fine while using it. I often put it on the wireless charger and watch Netflix. Of course using it will slow the charge rate, but it should at least keep up with the use.
Does your red led for charging stay on for wireless charging while watching Netflix, etc? Mine turns off unless the screen is off.

No that light only stays on while the screen is off.
Your get the same thing when using wall charger, indicator only turns on when screen is off since it's a notification LED. It isn't meant for it to stay on while screen is on since you can see battery icon showing its charging.
From what I've experienced, the phone will charge wirelessly, with screen on (about 800mAh) and wirelessly fast charge (I cannot get a mAh measurement, because the screen has to be off to get the "fast charging" toast message seen on the lock screen) with the screen off.
This seems like an odd limitation to purposely install, but there it is.
