    Console powering down despite "instant-on"


    Seems not-so-random lately.

    Console is in "instant-on" mode.

    When I "power off" the console, it goes to sleep mode (white led on power birck).

    The next day, the console is powered off completely (orange/brown led on power brick).

    Other than that (and the usual preview program glitches), console seems fine, I can play lots of games without issue. So doesn't seem to be a power brick failure.

    For the record console is on UPS, so it's not due to my *** power lines.

    And no it does not seem related to system updates background downloads.

    Any help?

    :)

    Console powering down while in "always on mode"

    hi,

    Same problem here as well.... Always on mode / instant on doesn't work anymore. When turning off it stays in always on mode/ instant on , the next few min / houres or a day later it is completely off. Started with the last official system update : OS version:
    6.2.11785.0 (xb_rel_1411.141104-1838) fre

    I am also in the preview program and never had a prob before.

    i have opened an SR with the great help of MS XB1 support Rep. Mr. Edgar who was very informative and helpful.

    i do hope that its a software glich and not an hardware prob.

    i will appricate your comments prior using and activating the SR and send it for repair.

    thank you.

    Hey Brotuulaan!

    If you have your console set to instant on it is indeed a different power cycle. With Instant On your console is put into a lower power state, but holding down the power button completely powers down your Xbox One. Let us know how it goes :)

    External Hard Drive Doesn't Spin Down with Xbox One in Standby

    Does the drive spin down if you set the console to 'Power Saving' in the power options? If your console is set to 'Instant on' your drive will likely not spin down.

    Automatic downloads remotely via app

    Is your console enrolled in the Insider Preview program`?

    Can you also try the following:

    In the energy settings, set your console to Power saving (not Instant on). Shut down the console, and restart it from the power saving mode.

    Then re-set it to Instant On mode, and shut the console down. Does the console now download stuff in the background?

    Is your console set to Instant On ("Xbox On"). If so, then your console is never fully powered down but always in a low power 'ready' mode.

    People cant hear me but I can hear them when playing fortnite

    Is your console set to instant on or power saving mode. If set to power saver try changing it to instant on and see if that helps.

    You can also try performing a hard reset EXACTLY like this. Hold the power button on the console for 8 seconds or until the power shuts down completely. Unplug the power cord from the back of the console for 5 minutes. Plug the power cord back in and restart
    the console.
