Why won't my iPhone 4S turn off? - 1

When a slide the power bar it shuts off but a second later the apple symbol shows up and the phone restarts asking me to enter my password. In like to turn it off to save power since it runs down extreamly fast.

I don't ever even turn my iphone off ever. At night I just let it go dormant (screen goes dark etc) but it stays on and I don't lose any battery power, you don't have to shut it off.

Turn off things you don't use and that should help, these are some things I did:

Are you running apps? What about the background light? I also have the iPhone 4S and I have no problems with my phone. I have my light down to half, shut off all unused apps or throw out. Have you tried to power down, wait then restart? Did you call your carrier? ATT works great for me at things like this. Did you get the upgrade for iOS 6.1? Go to setting, general, software update and see if you need to do this or not. Hope this works.

  • Why won't my iPhone charge or turn off? I have an iPhone 3GS that's about 2 years old. It has been dropped a couple of time, but doesn't have any external damage aside from a couple scratches. When I plug it in, it rarely charges. I've tried a few different chargers with it and it still doesn't charge. Whenever I turn it off, it almost always turns itself back on after a few minutes. Is there anything I can do or should I look into getting a new phone?

  • Why won't my iPhone 4's flashlight turn off? I accidentally dropped my phone in some water, so I left it in a bowl of rice for about 24 hours, and it's working now, but while I was charging it to see if it worked, the flashlight turned, and it won't turn off. I tried to turn it off with my flashlight app, but that didn't work.
