I have addressed this Issue before regarding other iPhone variants, but now that iPhone 8 and iPhone X have made their way to market. I have got many emails about the same issue iPhone Won’t Turn Off, so I thought why not make a new post and add more explications for this error.
This time I have included iPhone X and 8 in this Tutorial, so you can apply these steps to your brand-new Apple devices too. Let’s start the process to fix iPhone 8 or iPhone X Won’t Turn Off.
