Chosen Solution
Has anyone ever had a problem with an iPhone 4S where the flash will not turn off?? I’m told the phone has never been water damaged, and this happened shortly after a screen change. Has anyone ever solved this problem? I have never come across this before.
The easiest steps to try would be to take out the battery for a few and place back in, see if that doesn’t solve your problem, as well as inspect to make sure there was no water damage even though you were assured it hadn’t been an issue Try a soft restore, and if that doesn’t work, I’d recommend a hard reset bro.
I figured I would post this. My light was on for probably close to three full months. If I turned on the flashlight it would be very bright, and when I turned it off, the light would dim slightly but wouldn’t turn off. I didn’t want to pay to have them replace the whole camera so I left it. I had it in my pocket during a water fight when this happened so water damage may have been an issue. But rice, hitting it, soft resets, hard resets, taking the battery out, resyncing with iTunes, nothing worked. I even let the battery die COMPLETELY but then when I restarted it the light just came right back on. Then three months later it just magically shut off. AND it didn’t burn out. Now it works for the flashlight and the camera app. So I ended up saving $70 just by letting it sit.
Tap the phone camera flat on a solid surface, not too hard but hard enough to hear a smack, the flash light should go off then The camera should be like this on the corner of the surface you’ll tap it against, but the opposite way (camera facing down) http://blog.denivip.ru/wp-content/upload…
Gary was right on, unplug the battery for a minute then try a RESTORE directly through iTunes and make sure to update to the latest iOS (don’t forget to back up and make sure you are aware of the iCLOUD ACCOUNT AND PASSWORD attached the phone before doing this). I’ve seen this issue a lot. Most of the time it’s from liquid damage or logic board damage and not from a faulty camera, but your camera could also be defective. I guess the LED could be shorting out if it was touching the logic board. If the screen replacement was done recently I would bring it back and ask them to test another camera in the phone just to rule out of the possibility of a faulty camera.

Thanx i guess that’s what I have to look forward to.. Mine must have gotten wet on the beach with a wave… I realized the problem when it got really hot.. Then the cooling down message came on.. Not eligible for a new phone for another six weeks
I did drop my phone in water but it did not start till I turned my phone off and like 20 minutes later it cut back on and the flashlight was on but I didn’t turn it on so all I’m going to do is let it die so I’ll get you feed back of what happens
My phone battery has died and has been switched off for at least 3 days now, but the flash is still on which I’m finding really strange. Any ideas?
Don’t of the flash why
