My home button and lock button don't work on my iphone 4

Okay so about 2 weeks ago my lock button stopped working and I don't know why so I went to mts store and they said to go to the apple store and i haven't been able to go yet and then tonight I was on my phone then I went to eat dinner so i put it in my sweater pocket then after dinner i took my phone out and it wan't responding! Is there anything I can do right now other than going to an apple genius? It's like 9 at night!

Just get the iPhone 5, the iPhone 4 is stupid anyway. I can't believe you still have that thing, to be honest! Just by the new one it only costs a few hundred dollars! Hope I could help!

My wife had the same problem, and it ended up being a hardware issue. If you are still under the warrenty, they will fix it for free. If not, you will have to get a new phone.

  • Power button and home button doesn't work on iPhone 5C? Hi, so a while ago I dropped my phone in water, I took it to a repair shop and they fixed it but when I got it back the power and home button didn't work, I turned on assistive touch so I can use my home button and turn off my phone, now I can't turn it on without using my charger or having someone text me, is there any other way I can turn it on without having to do that?

  • Lock and home button broken on Iphone 4? My lock and home button are broken… Usually i've been able to manage with assistive touch and making it so it won't lock automatically, but recently i had to restore it. When i did, i went to my photos first to check to see if I still had any, but now I realize I don't have assistive touch yet and i'm stuck at my photos. How do i get out?
