Phone won't stay off

[Legoboyii]

My Lumia 640 with the W10M build prior to .63 (on slow ring) will not stay off after pressing down on the power button and sliding the screen down. Instead it just turns itself back on when I want it stay off. It's really bothersome, and no I'm not charging it.

What about build .63?

any particular reason why you don't update to it?

As it sounds like a bug or do you mean it occurs with build .63 and didn't with the build prior?

.63 isn't available for slow ring users so I can't update to it. At least not that I'm aware of (I'm signed up on slow ring, checked for updates today, still no updates)

I'm on the build before .63 (I don't remember the version number... .39?)

Either way my phone will not stay off unless I take out the battery.

Oh okay, haven't been keeping up the builds on the slow ring due to work and everything else.

I doubt they changed the power off behaviour lol, so most likely a bug.

Well if it is a bug and there's nothing I can do that stinks x.x

Hopefully when the next build hits the slow ring it'll have been fixed

Hopefully, it should be as it is a rather glaring bug imo as sometimes you just need to turn your phone off.

Have you tried the fabled Soft Reset? Sounds like charging disconnect recognition is borked somewhere. Does it show a charging icon by any chance?

I noticed this on my 830 the other day. Used Power Off only for it to shutdown and power back on. Didn't think much about it but it happened. Now you have me wanting to see if it was a one off thing.

Not unless I'm actually charging it no.
Yes I've soft reset before, still turns right back on after powering off.
