Can I get my phone fixed if the lock button is broken
My lock button doesn't work, and neither does my volume button. I didnt do anything to break this like drop it in water so is there a way to get this fixed ?
If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
iPod Service Support and Costs
iPhone Service Support and Costs
iPad Service Support and Costs
There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task. Start with Google to search for these.

My lock button isn't working. I am using the assistive touch thing right now. Can I get my phone fixed or replaced?
Rice is hit or miss but if you can (assuming you live in a home with a furnace) sit it up with the speakers facing down on an air flow register for about 10 minutes. The heat from the furnace will not harm the sensitive components and will dry the phone out nicely including the display layers. DO NOT USE a hair blower! The iPhone is capable of drying out much more easily than phones with removable backs as the iPhone while sumbermeged in liquid (for a short time) will take on limited moisture hence can be dried and keep on keeping on. My dauhter dropped her iPhone 5 in a toilet and it was fine after spending 24 hours in rice and 10 minutes on the air register while the furnace was producing heat.
One last thing. DO NOT POWER ON the phone until the drying out efforts have been completed and certainly DO NOT plug it in. -
How can you reset an ipod if the lock button is broken?
how can i reset my ipod if the lock button is broken?
To reset the iPod without the hardware buttons,
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. All your wifi and bluetooth preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected. You will have to rejoin wifi networks and repair BT devices
If you mean place in recovery mode then use on of these

I just bought my iPod Touch (4th Generation 8GB) from my friend and the home button doesn't work. Then, my parents took it away for about 6 months and I just got it back and I forgot my password. Then, I tried to get in too many times and now it says "iPod Disabled Connect to iTunes". Then, when I connect it to iTunes, it says for my to put in my password so it can connect. I've been trying to get back in but haven't found a way to restore it. HELP!!!!!
P.S. It's jailbroken, but the damage isn't due to Cydia. Also, I can't put it into DFU mode since the home button is broken.Actually, I can give it to someone who fixes jailbroken iPod touch home buttons, but I don't want to pay anything. Also, if you just have something to say to me that will kill me, don't say it at all dude.

Mysterious white screen when waking up the phone by using the lock button
Anyone else experiencing this?
Every now and then (about 5 out of 10 times) when my phone would fall asleep in an unlocked state, and i press the top lock button to wake it up, my screen turns white for a few seconds before returning to its normal screen. This doesn't happen if i wake up the phone with any other key (including the silent button on the top). I am only having this issue with the lock button. Is this something that is normal on all 8900s? Or can this "issue" escalate to something more serious? Any input would be great. Oh by the way, i already tried multiple battery pulls (did not help).I am unable to get into the chat. I tried explorer and chrome and neither will allow us to access the chat. It continues to go around and around.

I dropped it and it turned off. When the lock button worked I could just press the home and lock button down and the apple icon would appear. What do I do now? I already tried plugging it into my computer.
Thanks!Not much you can do with a broken lock button.

How do i turn my iphone on when the lock button is broken and it wont turn on after being plugged in
my phone will not turn on after being plugged in and my lock button is broken!!! Please help.
Sorry, there is no other way to turn your phone on. Make an appointment at an Apple store or go to a third-party repair shop. Be aware, if a third-party touches your phone, you forfeit the right to an out of warranty replacement from Apple.

I just bought a new iPod and I have it set up the same as my old iPod but I can't get notifications on the lock screen like I did on my old iPod. What can I do to fix this?
Hi.
What is the exact notification you are waiting? This could be possible that the device has already been opened once. Don't you think? -
How do I power off my phone when both the lock button and home button are malfunctioning?
My home button and lock button don't work. My screen is frozen and I need to know if there's a way that I can power off my phone or reset it.
Hold both down at same time for about 10-15 seconds and see if it restarts. If not, the battery will eventually die at which point it will shut down.
You'd need to get the phone repaired/replaced if your buttons are truly broken. -

I was on my iphone 4s and it randomly restarts to the apple logo. Usually this brings it back to the lockscreen in a minute or so but now it is just staying there. I have seen solutions where you just reset it by home+lockscreen button/ itunes, but i cant do this because i have a broken lock button..
I've found that using Chrome is very quirky on the Verizon website. Rather than get all upset, I simply use a different browser - whether it be IE, Firefox, Safari ... whatever will work. Just as an aside, reps have stated that the website is designed to work in IE. I've found other sites that are quirky in Chrome as well - I keep IE loaded just in case. It's easy enough to use IE now and then if I need to, and it saves me the frustration of quirky sites.
If you insist on not using IE, you can pay using your phone, or My Verizon mobile app, or by calling customer service. Waiting for Verizon to make their site cross browser compatible, 100%, is a lost cause, I think. -
Hey, apparently this iPhone 4S was dropped into the ocean and the light for the camera and a light where the 3G/4G bar is are both glowing. The iPhone 4S, I assume, was on iOS 5.1.1 I need help getting off info from it WITHOUT RESTORING IT. I'm not sure if Apple has any third party apps that they are allowed to suggest to us or if I'm on my own on this one, but if you guys can help I would greatly apperciate it.
Thanks!Those are definitely features of liquid damage. First step after completely drying the iPhone would be battery replacement. The camera circuitry and proximity sensor circuitry are surging because you are seeing these lights.
New battery may get this booted back up so you can recover data, or even get the iPhone working again. -
Can I get my phone fixed for free?
My iPhone lock screen button has stopped working when I try to turn it off, I have heard that this happens with a lot of people so maybe they would fix it for free. I know about assistive touch but it's annoying and I don't want to use it anymore. Please help !!
No one in these user to user support forums can speak for Apple.
Schedule an appt at the Genius bar of your local Apple store or contact Apple to arrange evaluation of the device. -
How do I get the group icon to show up in the upper right hand corner of my contacts. Mine just has the partial circle with the arrow on one end
Cloud services... Yahoo!, hotmail, AOL, Google... Undoubtedly others I may have missed. Check the settings for each mail account and see which, if any, have contact syncing turned on. On your computer, Outlook or Windows Address Book on a PC, Contacts/Address Book on a Mac. Check the info pane for the phone in iTunes.
