New MacBook Pro Boots When Lid is Opened

Bev in TX All Messages By This Member #2650 Well I started setting up my 2019 16” MBP, sand I am learning some new things already. ?For one, simply opening its lid causes it to boot. ?I found a command to run in Terminal that will turn that off, but if you reset VRAM, then you have to reset it again. ?Actually that feature also on MBP 2016 and later models and the MBA 2018 model. If you have one of those models, what do you think about that feature? ?Do you like, or dislike it? For those who elected to turn that feature off, have you encountered any drawbacks after doing so? Thanks, -- Bev in TX
Otto Nikolaus All Messages By This Member #2654 My view is, why would you open the screen unless you wanted to use it, so booting from shutdown?makes sense to me. This is an obvious follow-on from wake from sleep.

Daniel Settles All Messages By This Member #2655 Howdy. Article on how to disable boot when lid is opened. <> EaszPeazy in Terminal. You can copy/paste the command from the article into Terminal.

I don’t like the fact that you have to turn it off again every time you reset VRAM. So I was trying to get folks opinions on whether this feature is something to just become acclimated or if it would be a bother. -- Bev in TX
Bev in TX All Messages By This Member #2659 开云体育 Yes, I think that is what you would want to happen most of the time. ?And since it boots and shuts down so fast, it would be easy to shut it down in the less frequent situations when you didn’t want it on. toggle quoted message Show quoted text On Mar 6, 2020, at 4:55 AM, Otto Nikolaus via Groups.Io <otto.nikolaus@...> wrote: My view is, why would you open the screen unless you wanted to use it, so booting from shutdown?makes sense to me.

Daniel Settles All Messages By This Member #2661 Howdy. Bev, I'm not aware of a VRAM reset. You may be thinking of NVRAM which means Non Volatile Random Access Memory. There is a startup maintenance command called Zap the PRAM which is a reset of NVRAM aka Parameter RAM. This type of PRAM holds settings that are accessed by the Mac before it finishes booting.

Daniel Settles All Messages By This Member #2663 Howdy. Or, boot with Option Command p r pressed. If you have a startup chime, keep the 4 keys pressed until you hear the chime a 2nd time.

Denver Dan Of course you are right - ?that’s what I meant. ?In fact the command is “nvram”. For those who like more details, PRAM Is different from NVRAM. ?The following 2018 article says, “?Modern Macs no longer use PRAM; they instead use something called NVRAM (NV for non-volatile)...”. ?I’m not sure what they mean by “modern”. -- Bev in TX
