IPhone :: On/off Button Stuck In - Can't Get The Button To Come Out
Jun 29, 2012
My on/off button is stuck in. The phone is on but I can't get the button to come out. I don't want my phone to die and not be able to turn it on. Do I have to take it to a store for them to open it up and push the button out?
my lock button on the top is stuck in my phone i dont know what to do about it? i cant turn off phone only way is to let it go dead an i cant lock it unless it locks on its on
my home button has been getting stuck i have to hold it down for awhile before anything pops up on my screen. The top button works, and i have done a soft reset it will work for a couple of min then revert back to how it was..
i was using my iphone 4 last night when all of a sudden the hold/lock button at the top of the phone become stuck. I have not dropped it or anything and so cannot understand why there is a problem. it is stuck in the downwards position, as if i had pressed it and the button has not come back up.
I've had it for almost a year, I got it from Verizon. The Power button got stuck randomly. It was workin fine & next minute its jammed. I can only click the power button on the right side. & even then it's still tough to pres it.
Earlier when I locked my iPhone the button got jammed, is there a way I can get it out myself (would it be worth trying to stick a small wire or pin underneath to un jam it?) or should I wait until have time to go to an apple store and get them to repair it?
Periodically when i am using my iphone and i press the home button it get stuck in and is very difficult to get back out. This doesnt happen every time i use the home button but it is happening more and more frequently. It started happening about a month before the iphone warranty ran out and i didnt think much of it. However now the iphone has been out of warranty for a month it seems to be happening more and more frequently.
I bought my iphone 4S on March 17th, 2012. Today (April 18th) I noticed that the lock button isn't working and unfortunately I did not buy the apple care plan or any type of insurance on it. Is there anything I can do to get the issue fixed? The nearest genious bar is two hours away and I don't want to drive all the way over there just so they can tell me that they can't do anything about it.
My iPhone 4's sleep/lock button is stuck in. (From wear and tear) It's out of warrantee so apple won't fix it, a genius did tell me to replace the button, so i ordered the parts from I-fixit and followed their guide. (http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Installing-iPhone-4-Power-Lock-Button/4332/1) After reassembly the new button is still stuck in! What am i missing here? is there a part that needs to be fixed other than the actual button?
I am having issue atm with sleep button it just get stuck without any reason I was just holding the phone in my hands and running didn't drop it or anything.
So my lock or sleep button requires a large pressure to work. But now it wont even response to that. The button is now stuck in there so now I can't lock my iPhone 4 or do anything related to that button. Should I go to a Genius? Oh by the way my warranty expired
The sleep button on my iphone 4s is stuck / unresponsive. it also has a small scratch on the top, that couldnt have caused the damage.. i have never dropped my phone, so id like to know if apple will replace my phone even with the small scratch..
I was wondering what you guys did when your iPhone's sleep/power button was frozen. Mine still works, but it is very difficult to use. I have to hit it a few times for it to actually turn off. It is very difficult, and it acts like it is stuck or jammed.
I'm on vacation and my iPhone's home button is stuck in the depressed position. There's pretty high humidity here, higher than back at home. How do I get it unstuck so I can use my phone again?
I've just had my iPhone 4 replaced by Apple, as the sleep/wake button was continually becoming stuck in a rigid position.Â
Unfortunately, after the phone was replaced (and the data on the old handset deleted), I realised that - for some reason - my iCloud contacts were not up-to-date (I reckon I'm about 100 short). I'm missing key contacts from my phonebook.Â
However, when writing a text message on the new handset, I can click on the "To" field and start typing the name of contacts who were in the phonebook on my last handset (but not in the phonebook on the new one) and their name appears.Â
For example, the contact "Louise Thomson" is not in the Contacts app on the new handset, but was in there on the old one. However, when I start typing "Louise Thomson" into the "To" field of a text message, her contact details bizarrely appear, and I can send her a text.Â
Firstly, why is this happening? How are the details making their way onto the new handset, if they are not updated on iCloud? And, why are they not appearing in phonebook?Â
Secondly, and more importantly, how I can add all the contacts (IE the ones available to text) with a single click?Â
My friends iphone 4 left his phone charged and suddenly his phone shut down and cant be on anymore. it is all blackscreen ... the blackscreen is like when ur phone is off. my friends phone can go to DFU mode i tried restore it using itunes. but it keep give me error code and i have try to solve all the error code but it still cant works ...
My buttons seemed to have stopped working properly. In order to adjust the volume using the side button, I have to shut down the phone and then restart it. It will work for a while and then stops working and I have to go thru the process again. The home button just works whenever it wants. It doesn't fix the problem when I restart the phone. I can slide my finger in a circle around the button and it still doesn't work.
My phone came up with a message asking if i wanted to update to the new software so clicked ok, it seemed to be taking ages and then suddenly went off. Now when holding down the power button and the home button it is still not working and wont restore?
have had my iphone for almost 1 and a half years, and about 8 months ago my home button started wrecking; i would press it and it would either not open the iphone (take it off sleep mode to show lock screen) or the button would get stuck in and would start the voice control.. then about one week ago my vibrate button wasnt vibrating, even when i got a call or message or alarm... around one year ago, my camera started wrecking; like i would go into it and it would be blurry, and over the past year it has been getting worse and worse, and now i cant use my back camera at all.
