Every once in a while i get a black Box reminding me that if i hold down the volume button for ten secs that the phone will shut down. I dont know if Im activating it unknowlingly or if Its a bug
That sounds like the message you get if you hold the power button down for 7+ seconds, like you would do a force reboot on an old HTC device. Now you get that window telling you how to do it on current ones.
You have a case? Take it out of the case and see if the issue resolves. I have had to cutout ports on cases in the past.
That message is what you see when you ONLY push the power button down, not both power+VOL. I was wondering if your case covered your POWER.
