S4 Mini: How to turn screen off?

Hello all,

I have a Samsung Galaxy S4mini. I've owned since new. It's not rooted, I don't have many apps. I mainly use it as a phone and to see/read/reply to emails.

Over the last couple of months it has developed an odd fault. When I press the screen sleep (power?) button the screen goes dark but the bottom bar near the big button lights up. The screen then comes back on. I can repeat this about 5 to 20 times before it will turn the bottom bar off and actually go to sleep.

I've turned off some animations thing that the internet suggested. I've turned off the screen keep alive face recognition thing that the internet also stated. These haven't improved things.

Cheers,
Glen.
