Home / sleep button not working properly

I am using an iphone 3G with the last updated 3.01 version. the Sleep and home buttons are not functioning in a single touch. On the third or fourth press the keys are getting triggered. How can I come over this problem.

Is there an "APPLE STORE" in India or you just went in a reseller store?
There is a replacement program for sleep/wake button for free. Just look for an Apple Store and make a reservation at Genius Bar.
I have an iPhone 5, bought in Dubai U.A.E.
It is a US model (model A1428) which is different of the model use here in Italy/Europe
My serial number is qualified for battery replacement program.
I thought the Apple Store wouldn't repair my phone because I bought it from another country , a different model and it is already out of warranty.
The Apple store's staff just checked if my iPhone's serial number is eligible for the program and he replaced the battery for free today.

Anyone had issues with on/off sleep button not working anymore

Anyone had issues with on/off sleep button not working anymore?

If there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation or set up Service and take or send to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, use virtual Lock Button, tap Settings App > General > Accessibility > Assistive Touch > ON > tap new white screen button > Device > Lock Screen. This can even turn OFF iPhone. To turn ON, connect iPhone to power, charger or USB of computer.

It means that for one year from the data of purchase, Apple will replace the phone with a refubished unit for any malfunction not due to abuse or physical damage (i.e dropping, exposure to water, etc,)
To be clear, it's a new or refurbished unit, whichever Apple has in the replacement phone stream.

Wifi sudden disconnection and lock button not working properly on my iphone 4s....... It is under warranty

When using wifi on my iphone,sometimes it disconnects automatically...... And my lock button is not working properly.....
What should i do, my iphone is under warranty....

The Sleep/Wake button is a hardware issue and that's covered by the warranty. I would take it to the Apple Store and see what they can do.
Hope that helps

Button not working properly.

Hi I bought my new HP Envy k112tx its capslock button is not working properly when pressed softly. It has to be pressed hard so that it could work, Its minor.What should i do?.

if it's not bugging you then you can safely just leave it, there is a small risk of causing damage to the keyboard though. If you contact HP they may be able to replace the keyboard for you unless it's less than 30 days old then you should be able to return it for a replacement unit, you'll still need to contact HP first though cause that's where the retailer will refer you to straight away

Sleep button not working at all

I recently got a new iPhone and about 2 days after buying it the sleep button stopped working. I've tried restoring it but no change. It doesn't work at all. Any ideas? Could it just be a hardware problem? It's still under warranty so I'm thinking of taking it back.

Sorry. We can't help you. The iPhone is not user servicable. There are no legitimate sources for iPhone parts.
If you can't figure it out, find a competent repair shop or buy a new phone. Apple won't touch that one.

Ipad dipped in water and sleep/wake button not working properly?

My son dipped my ipad 2 in the water bucket for like half a second the ipad,before this ipad was out of battery and was off! i quickly took it out dried all the excess water and even used a blow dryer to dry it,after a quick dry i tried to swtich it on and everything is working okay till now except the wake/sleep button,its not locking the screen or not switching off the ipad. it did turned it on but its not locking the screen or turning off the ipad!
when i tried reseting it from the general menu in settings it turned off and then the apple logo kept on coming for like 5 seconds and then going away this keeps on happening till i dont keep a hold off the sleep/wake button to switch it on or till the ipad runs out of battery,then if i hold the wake/sleep button to turns it.
One more problem im facing as soon as the ipad turned.it gives me power off option everytime then iv to cancel it to use my ipad.
so the main question is my sleep and wake button is turning on my device but not working while its on,what would be the problem and whats the solution?
p.s. i was tensed about it so i quickly turned it on to check whether its working,i know i shouldnt had turned it on :/
currently my ipad is off and iv put it under a fan to dry,thinking this might might help but im feeling it wont now its too late:(

Hello:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
That resets the iPad. If that does not work, I am afraid it has been damaged by the "water dip."
