Power button.

Hi guys,

Just wanted to ask, after the latest update. It feels like you really need to press down on the power button to get the shut down menu to show up.

Not sure if this happened before. If i don't press down hard enough or right, the shut down menu shows up then it locks and the lock screen shows up.

On my note 2, it's quite straight forward, and I don't remember having to hold down the power button for that long for it to shut down.

If I recall, the update notes mentioned an increase from .5 second to 1.5 seconds for power-on. I noticed it too on my AT&T S6.

On AT&T as well. Noticed now that you mention it. A step slower on power on but power off, didn't notice any difference.

The two above posts are correct ... original press-time on the lock/unlock/power button was 0.5 seconds, which was too quick for most people, causing too many accidental requests for "power off". Therefore, AT&T changed it to a 1.5 second press/hold time before pulling up that menu. Power down/up time remained the same, and only the time taken to invoke that menu changed.

Thanks for the info. Probably a good thing.
