How to fix a Lock Button on a iPhone 3GS?

Well, that's a bit tricky, you're going to need a new button and an iPhone tool kit, you'll have to open up the iPhone using a pentalobe screwdriver (comes with the iPhone tool kit) and access the lock button, I have personally never fixed an iPhone 3GS så I don't know what components are in the way to access the lock button, but be careful when you do that, you can find a lot of videos on youtube about how to open up an iPhone 3GS and how to replace different parts.

  • Is it possible to replace the home button and the lock screen button on a iPhone? I've had my iPhone for about 2 months now, and the buttons are starting not to work. Besides the buttons my iPhone is in perfect condition. My phone carrier is straight talk, from Walmart. They don't offer insurance or a warranty or anything like that. So I was wondering if it was possible to replace these buttons?
  • Iphone lock button broken, is there any alternative to lock iphone? My iphone 3G lock button is totally damaged and is out of warranty and I can't afford to get it repaired. I was wondering is there any app which can convert "silent" button to lock button. Or may be an app on which i can manually lock the device. By the way my Iphone is jailbroken, and "accessibility" is not accessible.
