I thought this is firmware issue, so I download the latest and upgraded. The first time it starts fine, and then the problem come back again.
Is this hardware problem or software? Anyone experienced the same?
If the battery is weak, and you can forget the battery indicator as it can't be trusted, the 770 will perform strangely. If you have had your battery for a while, i would recommend trying a new one. Does not hurt to have a spare anyway.

Note that waiting until the screen lights on while holding down the power button does not work. I wonder if this is a feature to prevent the thing from turning on all by itself.
Of course the simplest solution is not to turn it off at all. That's what I do.
