do you have 8 ohm speakers....if not this will make the receiver run hot and could put it in protector mode

this is because something is going with cabling, high volume, speaker in process of going dead. I have one, and I have to tell you this is the worst receiver i have! My problem only happends viewing BD/DVD, mostly with Dolby Tru HD decoding and looking a very high frequencyt scenes liek the ones on Resident evil -extintion. I revise, reset, disconnect and do everything that the web site told me to. Also, I start testing each speaker, and disconnecting one speaker at a time and repeating the scene that is causing the protector to activate. I thaught I found the problematic speaker, but wrong, it happend again, same movie same scene...it is very frustratingMy advice, return the unnit, get a Yamaha.... this is because something is going with cabling, high volume, speaker in process of going dead.

We turn the volume down on the receiver before disconnecting. No volume on device.

As Pat A. answered, sounds like you didn't take the plastic protector off. If you did and it still shows all 8's, the unit is defective and should be returned.

Micah is correct. There will be a decending tone...hold down after that...then it will turn off. I leave my phone playing through it as I do this. That way I know it is turned off.

There's a a reset button on the back. This may seem like a silly question, but did you check the volume button?

I have the same problem, i have no solution to it i have learned to tune out the noise and raise the volume sorry if that doesn't help.

NO, I didn't have that problem, when I am talking on the phone, the screen is shut off automatically. I don't think the problem is your screen protector. maybe checke your sensor of your phone.

It must be a problem with the receiver.I did not have any problems with the volume.

Are you sure it isn't the subwoofer? It stays on all the time even when the system is turned off and produces a low level hum, constantly. That seems to be the norm for all the subs and the Onkyo receivers. I was surprised to walk into my media room and hear the hum coming from the sub and the system was turned off. Sub is always in stand by. Just a thought.

No, Do check everything others have mentioned. Also make sure your receiver is correctly configured. Run a sound test to help pinpoint your issue.

I have this problem.. since I bought it without warranty I didn't contact the customer care.. I connected it to the Home theater and turned the tv speaker off

The First Obvious Question Is charged? If u have a case protector that is really snug it's probably pushing down the volume buttons and that will prevent it from turning on. If that doesn't work then idk I would think it's broken or the battery isn't holding the charge. Good luck.

I don't recall it happening to me, but keep i4 volume on medium and control higher volume with phone. ..I usually turn volume down on the phone before disconnecting or powering off!

Not here. I would unplug it and see if it still happens and if it doesnt, I would assume its something to do with the volume dial.

Thanks Wagner. I will set it that way and see if anything changes over the next day or two and post back here.So much for a day or two, I just tried it and it is very loud now. Mine wasnt refurbished, I bought it new in the package. Werid bug for sure.

They told me to push the "volume up button", but that didn't work. I sent it back and they replaced it. This one works.
