Might be a good time to point out that as the weeks have gone by since GB and apps continue to update, almost on a daily basis, (two or three a day), I have noticed my phone running smoother.

I never turn my phone off, so I can't comment on this issue. Just saying lock-ups, battery pulls and overall glitchyness has improved as apps and developers are catching up.

I have had the same problem since this update I have also changed out the phone twice and have had fresh ones from Verizon and with nothing installed I can shut it down and anywhere from 30sec to 5 min it will power back on then you can shut it off again and it stays off. I have talked to at lease 5 techs and they stated they had no record of this problem.I have learned to live with it but it is annoying when you forget and you phone is half dead in the morning

Mine does it around two minutes after I shut it off EVERY night. Annoying, but not as bad as my other problem.

Despite what the "experts" at Verizon and Motorola say this problem is far from solved. I wiped my phone clean and reformatted my memory card and went back to all original factory settings. I have the most updated Verizon and Android systems running on the phone and with no, I repeat NO added applications, and I still suffer the same problem. Since I can't get rid of all the preinstalled apps without having someone Root my phone, something I have no way of knowing how to do, it is clear to me that the problem is with the updates Verizon and Android has sent.

Thanks for posting winddancergw!

 

I know this can be very annoying, but I just want to assure you and the rest of the Community, this has been lifted up to our Product Support Team and they are working diligently on providing a fix to the power issue with the next software release.  I don't have a specific date or time frame, however, we are working to provide the update as soon as possible.

 

Thanks again for your patience and for being a part of the Verizon Wireless family!

I look forward to a fix as I started having this same "powering on" issue since the last update.  Please keep us informed here when an update is released.

I know it's not the "fix" we all want, but you can get around this annoyance by putting the phone into "SLEEP MODE".

I'm not sure why the post heading says this problem is solved, as there is no solution given.  I have the same problem and it is persistent.  Has Verizon or Motorola developed a solution?

I think the reality of this is that Motorloa and Verizon have moved on from the original Droid X and we won't be getting any support from them. Why would they want to spend time on what is now an out of date phone when they can just let us get frustrated enough so that we buy a new one at full price.

@Rick --  long thread at MOTO on this... Trust me, they are very well aware of this & the fact that GB introduced it.
