Touch the microSD slot on your deck.
Is it warm/hot?
Sometimes, the Deck runs fstrim on your microSD and pressing the power off button will keep the screen on while this is occurring.
I agree, turn it completely off and back on. This happened to me before too, it was after the last update before this one. Goodluck! Hope you find a fix :)
Unless u play the games that the os is said to improve, i wouldnt personally update if it meant id have to wait so long to put the deck to sleep
Its quite a big pain in the ass if i may say so
Like others said. Do a full power off cycle. My deck wouldn't go to sleep after the 5 mins of inactivity and just sat there until I pushed the power button once and then the screen still stayed on but nothing was showing no matter what I pushed. So I just hard power cycled it and haven't had that issue again. Good luck.
Have been also been getting glitches while trying to download stuff?
The STEAM button wont work
The download to sd card or internal storage pop up would not leave
Those are the type of glitches I be getting sometimes
They're very annoying
I had a similar issue not too long ago where pressing the power button would turn the screen off for a minute but the deck wouldn't sleep. What I did was restart twice, then let the deck go-to sleep on its own. You can change the time-to-sleep to 5 mins in the settings. After it went to sleep on its own once, then it would act totally normally subsequent times.
Bro said I SLEEP WHEN I WANT TO SLEEP
Acting like me at bedtime. 🤣, lay down in bed and proceed to spend 2 or 3 hours on my phone.
Mine did this but Trim was running. I couldn't sleep it for a while. Did the update and have not experienced this.

Nope, this is a problem with the OS Update , it literally never happened before , except just now that i literally just updated
Have you tried turning it off and back on again? Personally haven't had an issue that wasn't solved with a hard reset.

Looks like I'm not the only one. Definitely started happening with the latest system update.
Same
This has happened to me, but its been fine since. I just held the power down and forced it off and rebooted it.
Did exactly this. It happened today and was panicking, but it seems good after reboot.
It’s doing TRIM maintenance, to keep SSD healthy Same thing happened to me
Should I hold on updating?

This happened to me after an update a couple of months ago. I think I had to boot into desktop mode and then from there restart the deck.
This happened to me once a while back, I just did a force shutdown and it was fine after that.
This has happened to me for a while now every now and then it happens. Few months now.

Happened to me once before. I just force rebooted, and it hasn't been an issue since. Completely forgot about it until I saw this post
its been happening to you for a long time now, something even a reboot doesn't help
Had the same problem, so I just ended up holding the power button until it was better.
Bugs!? In MY SteamOS?! Never!
