Iphone 4s power/sleep button slowly breaking?

The other day, it was working just fine. Then one day, it started getting harder to press down. It still works, but I have to press extremely hard for the lock screen and just use the annoying circle menu. What are some ways to fix this?

I'm so sorry. Honestly I have no idea how to fix it. But if you go to apples website and make an appt for your nearest apple store, they could do something or give you a new one. Apple plus is $50 and if you have that or get that they'll just Hand you 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?
  • My iPhone screen is all black and my power / sleep button doesn't work. What do I do? I clicked on this app & my phone turned all black all I could see was the status bar and that's it & I pressed the home button but it stayed frozen, it didn't work. & well my power button doesn't work so yeah and then my iPhone locked and now I press the home button and Siri works and everything but my phones screen is still black!
