You're screwed then as holding the power button down for ten seconds is the only way to force shut it down.
It's slightly different than my N7 where you hold that power button to reboot, this one just shuts it down and I have to release and press again to start it back up.

It's just just like doing a hard shutdown on a computer.

[Q] Phone will not shut down

Has anyone else had this problem with the stock phone? Mine will power down but ten seconds later will boot up on its own

No, might be a faulty power button.
Fastboot is turned on. If you press the power button (just a press, not even a hold), then the phone will boot up. happened a lot when the phone was in my pocket.
Nope. I would pull battery out, put it back in, not even get the cover back on and it would boot up on it's own

Galaxy Tab 10.1 Won't Power Up

I took my Tab on vacation (in the Samsung bookcase). I went to power it up and it's completely dead. I have called Samsung and after troubleshooting they have sent me a UPS label for an RMA.
We tried leaving out on the charger for 3 hours but no joy. I then called them back and we then tried a hard reset by holding the power and volume up button but no joy with that either. We even tried the power button and volume down button but that didn't work either. For some reason my Tab that had worked perfectly up until now has died completely.
Before I send this back tomorrow does anyone have went last minute ideas? I'm at a complete loss at the moment.

Thanks I just took a look at the thread. Nothing there useful that I can use to get my Tab working but it does seem that I'm not the only one with the problem.

Nexus 7 Power?

OK so I have a wierd problem with my nexus. When I turn it off it won't turn back on doesn't matter if there's a USB or not. After a few hours sometimes it works sometimes it still doesn't. This is a huge problem and it stops me from getting into the boot loader. Should I just go to the store and get a new one or is there a fix?

I kinda have the same problem too, sometimes it takes a while to power on. All i do is hold the power button until the google logo shows up. Try that.

Power button problem?

Hi guys, I think something is wrong with my Nexus 4 power button. It usually took me many attempts to lock or unlock my device. Sometimes it recognizes my pressing as twice even I only press it once.
Is my button wearing? Anything I can do to resolve this beside a RMA?

Use one of those slide to unlock apps that you don't even need to touch the power button ,there's much talk of them around the nexus 4 thread .
EDIT: its called Touch Control

Go for Rma... or else use touch control.. Unlocking using volume button is another option...

Power Button

My power button has recently become sticky. It takes a lot more force to use it then it does my volume buttons. I tested the wife's note 3 and hers feels like mine used to. Anyone else had this happen?
