Edge 1050 turning itself on randomly? And not talking about during charging.

3 times now I have gone out to the garage to get ready for a ride only to find my Edge 1050 dead.  Caught it this morning sitting on my desk and it just randomly out of nowhere turned it self on. Doesn't seem to be a stuck button being it doesn't feel "stuck", and if it was a sticky button issue one would think I should be having issues during rides with random power downs. 

To be clear I am not talking about how it turns itself on during charging, I am well aware that bug is a "feature".  This is 100% randomly just turning it self on at times.

I long press the power button when I am done with my rides and hit the "red" power button every time. I am certain of that.  I ride 5 to 6 days a week so it's also not like the computer has just been sitting in storage for weeks on end without use. 

Any help would be great.  I searched an sadly this doesn't seem to be a common issue here.  Hope a Garmin dev has maybe seen this.

  • 1st of all set the auto-sleep ON to prevent the battery drain if this random turn on happens (the autosleep turns off the device after 5mins )



    it is interest that the unit is power on from full switched off state, for this it really needs the power button pressed in, so maybe it is a hw defect. but try to reboot your device with long press and hold power button until the unit reboot by itself (apprx 20-30s holding), and lets see what will happen after this . are You on latest 13.14 stable firmware or on newer beta? 

  • I will turn on the auto sleep feature. 

    As for the software I am at 13.14
