Broken sleep/wake button iphone 4s?
Earlier this morning my sleep/wake button on my iphone stopped 'working', i don't mean it's not responding, but you just can't click it anymore. I'm pretty sure it's jammed in place too far down, as it's definitely not as 'raised' as it was originally. Either that or it's stiff/stuck and won't move.
it doesn't matter how hard i press on it, it doesn't move down as if i was to click it.
i really can't get used to using assistive touch.
i've had this iphone for over a year, so i don't think apple would do anything to help this. Is there anything else i could do? (to maybe get it un-jammed or something)
Added (1). also, i used that button completely normally. I didn't ever over-do it, or press down too hard. It just all of a sudden stopped working.
Well it is a iphone 4s it might be good if you updated to iphone5s, or you can just send the phone to apple
Why do you ever need to click it? I haven't shut my iphone off in a year.
Many use this hidden feature especially on the 5 as a work-a-round. A bypass.
Best luck.

- Will Apple replace my Iphone 5 broken sleep button? It's just a little over a year old and is not damaged in any other way. The top button use to sometimes work and then only in the left corner but now it's completely dead.
- Why won't iphone sleep/wake button work? It worked completely fine yesterday and now it won't.haven't dropped it and it hasn't given me a problem before.
- Why doesn't my iphone's sleep/wake button not work? So my iphone's sleep/wake button feels weird.whenever i push it, it feels like i have to push it harder for it to work. Can i fix this by myself or do i have to get it repaired? And if i do have to get it repaired, how much would it be because i don't have warranty on it.
- My iPhone 5s sleep/wake button quit working and it's new? I got this like 4 months and it has quit working completely, since I didn't break it will they give me one for free under insurance or warranty
