I did simply turn my phone off and then off again, but no other action was taken, no other buttons were selected or pressed. And I've also heard other people say the exact same thing about their iphone. There must be some kind of glitch on some iphones that allow this to happen.
The alleged glitch is probably associated with your settings. Are you using the native Notes app or a 3rd-party app for note purposes? If you're using the native Notes app, go to Settings - Notes and then make sure the default account is set correctly. If your notes are associated with iCloud or another email service, sign out of the account on your device, reboot, and then reconfigure the account on it. If you've been experiencing other alleged glitches, I recommend you do a clean install of the latest iOS version for your device and then set it up as new.
