I Love L.A.
Is there anyway to shut off your iPhone to the matrix? In other words my other phones could turn completely off even if someone called me or texted me. I just cant seem to do that (turn off the iPhone) with the iPhone unless maybe airplane mode? Sorry if this is a noob question but I am still new to the iPhone.
 
Hold down the power button, then slide to turn off.

Press and hold the on/off button at the top of your iPhone. A red button will appear at the top of the screen and next to it will say slide to power off. Very similar to how when you turn on your phone it will say slide to unlock.

I will sometimes put my phone into airplane mode when I go to bed. This way my alarm will still go off, but no phone calls, text messages, emails, etc will cause the phone to sound.
 
Unplugging from the matrix is quite difficult and dangerous.. you sure you want to go through with it?
 
I see someone beat me too it, but I'll say it anyway:

You take the blue pill and the story ends. You wake in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill and you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.Remember -- all I am offering is the truth, nothing more.
