So really?! there's no apple "geniuses" out there who can advise what to do? My iphone4 was in my pocket for half and hour while I was in the rain today in my $600 waterproof GoreTex jacket. Just the humidity in the air was enough I guess to make my iphone flashlight stay on. I've re booted it numerous times and even blow-dryed it for 10 minutes and nothing will turn it off. Doesn't anyone know what to do? Wait for the battery to die or light to burn out? Whichever comes first?

Thank you.

The post from gbiasi01 was the first Google result when I typed in "flash on iphone 4 wont turn off", I didn't even look to see where the original post was under.

I'm going to have to take in to the Apple Store today because even though the battery died 12 hours ago after hitting 1%, the flashlight is still on! Those LED lights really don't require much power!
