    I had to put my xbox one on a smart plug so it doesn’t have power when not in use.

    Otherwise it turns itself on constantly. Every time I came home it was on, and sitting in the livingroom with it off, it would randomly turn on. It does this both with and without network access.

      If you mean that it spins up connected USB drives when “off”, I’ve seen that as it tries to keep games updated in the background. But I’ve never had any fully turn on (power button lit up, on the main menu if you switch to the input) on their own. That’s weird.

        No, I mean fully starting up as if I’d pressed the power on button.

        Plays the three beep startup sound, power light comes on, I then turn on the tv and it’s sitting in it’s dashboard doing nothing waiting for input.

        Manually press the power button and it shuts down, then starts again a random amount of time later. Sometimes only a few minutes, usually within an hour or two.
