Shield TV is turning itself on, any ideas?

by shatheid

I've seen Kodi mentioned on xda as a possible cause, and I do have that installed.

Anyone here with any experience with this issue? Or suggested troubleshooting tips?

I've had it since November, and its only started in the last 3 days...oddly, thats around the same time that I started setting up my Harmony remote and re-setting up Kodi on it.

(I've put the Harmony two rooms away just to make sure it wasn't sending signals, and its still happened a few times...its IR, so that should rule out that as a possible cause)

Thanks.

HDMI CEC enabled? Could be the cause.

Do you have a bluetooth mouse hooked up to it?

I have this issue sometimes. A restart of the Shield will fix it for a while. I think it's an app, I've thought it was Sling or Kodi before, although I think it has turned itself on before I had either of those installed.

I've had trouble with the official Android TV Remote app that would turn the console on whenever it pleased

Mice are notorious for picking up micro movements, especially newer mice with higher dpi. Unplug that puppy and see what you got
