Meaning you power off via the off button or remove battery??
Poweroff via button and make sure you have the power cable disconnected. This bug is just starting to "unfold" right now, so details aren't 100% certain yet.



The cause of this problem was in the CLOSED SOURCE BINARY PROPRIETARY PoS getbootstate. This program should be Free Software.

If you think closed software binary proprietary bugs are bad because you can't correctly fix them (as I would be doing right now), VOTE for this bug please:

Or we can just wait for Nokia to update their proprietary program and we can have the fix when they get around to releasing it, and people can have bricks abound...
