Can I set my Iphone to turn off only when unlocked?
I have an Iphone 4. I want to make it so that you would only be able to turn the phone off when it is unlocked. How do I make this happen? I believe this would be useful in a case where my phone is stolen. The stealer does not know the passcode to unlock the phone, so he can't turn the phone off. This would allow me to use location services without the possibility of my phone being off.
Dear even if your phone stolen, he/she can restore it with itunes so, i suggest you to sign up on apple and download i caught you somthing like this its an app.
while the stealer put code wong on it.automatically comes to your email his photo. The iphone will take his face.,
i suggest you to keep the package, incase its stolen just call provider to block it. So he can't use it.

This is a great question. In order for this to work, you'd have to disable the Sleep/Wake button so the phone couldn't be powered off. You'd also have to disable the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button being held together as that Hard-Reboots your phone.
The only way I can imagine this being done is if you were to Jailbreak your phone, install Activator (which allows you to re-assign actions or deactivate buttons), and disable the long hold for both Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
Good luck.
(update: Using Activator, I disabled the long-hold for the Sleep/Wake button at the lockscreen. Now, you can't power off my iPhone from the lockscreen. You can still reboot it though, but that means it will turn on again and I can still locate the phone if stolen.)
- My iphone only charges after I turn it off and back on? When I plug my iphone in it won't charge so if I turn it off and plug it in the turn it back on it starts to charge and my battery is going dead really fast and help on how to fix
- IPhone lock button broken. Can turn off but how do i turn it on? The lock button at the top of my iphone is broken, but i have been using it fine as i have turned on 'Assistive Touch' and have been using the white dot that appears on screen. However, I'm worried about turning it off, and surely the white dot will disappeaer when the phone is off, and I will have no way of turning it on? Am I correct in thinking this?
- I bought my daughter an iphone 5c.Do i set up the Apple id/password first, or buy the plan, then set it up? I have bought Iphones before. But i didn't set them up. Do i by the plan, usually $40.00 first, then do the Apple id/password? Or vice versa?
- Can you set a text-only background on an iPhone 5s lock screen? Basically, screen-capturing a note from "Notes", but without seeing the time, battery icon, network etc. Does an app or something completely different let you do this?
