About an hour ago, the lock button on my iPhone 4 completely stopped working. About 4 hours ago, I noticed the button becoming difficult to press and sticking, but it worked. Now it does not work at all so I enabled the AssistiveTouch from my settings. I was just wondering if I can replace the button somehow? Take it to an Apple store and have it fixed. If so how much would that cost?
I DO NOT WANT TO REPLACE MY PHONE. DO. NOT. My mother recently got her phone replaced and she told the store to transfer her pictures and contacts to her new phone. But they only transferred HALF of her contacts and photos. I DO NOT want that happening to me. I have over 1,100 photos and lots of precious notes saved. I have had this phone for about a year and 8 months, and this is the first problem I have had with it. Maybe because I've had it so long the button just wore out?
I have now become paranoid that my home button will break also and I won't have any way to get into my phone. If possible, could you tell me a way to access my phone if both buttons break?
Questions to be answered-
-Can the Auto-Lock button be replaced?
- If so, how much does it cost?
- If both my Auto-Lock and Home buttons are broken, how would I be able to access my phone? (Without plugging my phone in to charge it. What if I'm not anywhere near an outlet or charger? Like at a County Fair, or Sightseeing and I want to take a picture or respond to a text?)
Please ANSWER! And thank you
