Fios One STB - TV turning back on after powering off with remote

When hitting the power button, the TV turns off but then about a minute or two later, the screen is filled with the Verizon logo to hit any key to watch TV. How can I get the TV to remain off when I hit the power button the first time on the remote? This seems to be happening on my smart TV sets.

Check the TV's CEC controls, like Samsung's Anynet+, Sony Bravia Sync, etc and see if there is an option for powering on the TV when a source is powered up and disable it. The Fios box never really turns off, so that may be the problem. Also look here, and disable the TV Input Control. Main Menu > Settings > Audio & Video > Video Settings > TV Input Control.

I would re-pair the Fios remote with the TV to see if that helps.

Can it be doubly confirmed that the TV is turning off? 🤔

The TV turns off then back on with the Fios logo to hit any key to watch TV. Apparently the STB turns off but the TV turns back on with that screen showing.

Is the on/off button on the remote control being used to turn everything off, or is the power button on the STB?

A quick question: which STB is being used? 🤔

The TV input Control in the STB settings is set as “Disable”. I use the Samsung TVs Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) settings turned on to control the sound bar with the remote. When turning off I use the STB remote…normally. If I use the TVs remote the screen sometimes pops back up and I have to turn it off again

Yes using the STB remote usually. Sometimes I use the TV remote. I have the Fios One boxes.
