The lifting it up thing is interesting. I wonder if that's done with an
accelerometer? If so, it would be checking that too.

 A few more comments, but I don't know much about this topic.

Then you better shut up.

1. Even if a phone is "off", when you plug in a charger, "something
    happens", so is it really off? I don't know, but how does it charge?

Do you still live in the 80s of the last century? Charging electronics is seperate from the OS.

2. The government has, in the past, secretly modified gangster's phones
    such that they looked to be off, but were secretly still transmitting.

They call her SIRI and her boy friend is Google.

3. The iPhone, I believe, is never off, which, I'm told, is how the FindMy
    sensing works for stolen phones.

Simple mind. Why are you writing here? Are you bored?

How does any of that work? I don't know.

Obviously.
