Iphone 4 On/Off Button Stuck

The on/off button on my iphone 4 is stuck. When i press it nothing happens. Any ideas on how to "un-stick" this button??

Its on its way to completely stop working. The same thing happened to me. The power button worked for a couple of days if i pressed very hard but now its not working at all. So cant lock the phone or power off. If you're still in the warranty period take it to the apple store and they will give you a new phone.

  • IPhone 4 on/off button jammed

    Evening all,
    I'll keep it short - my iPhone 4 on/off button has been jammed for the last couple of weeks (on within the past few days I have been unable to actually turn it off), previously I was able to but with a lot of force on the button.
    I've ad the phone since Dec' 2011 and presumably it's out of warranty? Would Apple replace it for a new one or could it get costly?
    Cheers

    Settings App > General > Accessibility > Assistive Touch > ON > tap new white screen button > Device > Lock Screen. This can even be used to turn OFF iPhone. To turn iPhone ON, connect to power, charger or USB of computer.
    Apple Store would handle this problem with replacement iPhone 4 exactly like yours for $149.

  • Iphone 4 on/off button jammed. Bought it from Singapore can i get it repaired in Mumbai?eair it

    Iphone 4 on/off button jammed. It is under warranty. Bought it from Singapore can i get it repaired or replaced in Mumbai without any charges?

    The iPhone warranty is only valid in the original country of purchase. You would need to ship the phone to someone you know in Singapore. This would be at your expense. Your other option is to look for a local 3rd party repair shop but this will void your remaining warranty.
    Good luck.

  • My iphone 3gs on off button does not work.  Is there another way to reset the phone?

    The on/off button on my iphone 3gs does not work.  I cannot shut the phone down to reboot and it is stuck in a no service.  I cannot get cell or internet service.  Is there another way to reboot the phone?  Possibly a soft reset?

    The screen goes to voice control.  It only recognises the home button not the on/off button.  Is there a way to soft reset the phone?

  • On/off button stuck inside

    My 8GB Nano (6th Gen) ... the on/off button seems to be stuck. I cannot get it to turn off or operate unless I plug into computer (as if I were charging). I can then get the screen to light up and proceed. I do not think it is ever turning off but just had the problem today after long run. Any suggestions?
    Thank you so much in advance.

    Try resetting your iPhone.  Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, contact Apple Support.  Here's how:

  • Iphone 4 on/off button got struck

    Hi Folks,
                   My iphone 4 on/off switch got struck suddenly when i am about to switch off my iphone. can you help me out in this?

    Not really. If the button is stuck it is a hardware malfunction and you will need to seek assistance with Apple Support.

  • Reset Iphone without on/off button

    My Ihpone 4s is totally dead. I cannot start up with my computer. Does anyone can help me how to reset him? Suddenly the iphone was totally off.

    A reset requires a functional power button.
    If the device will not power on when external power is connected, take it to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

  • IPhone 5 turn off button not working properly, is it a hardware defect?

    My iPhone 5 (1year and 4 months) has trouble with its turn off button, I've heard of other friends with same issue, is it a hardware defect?

    Things just break. The IPhone buttons are basically a thin plastic sticker with a thin flexible metal lining. The simple sticker slips (slides) out of place just a hair (far less than mm) and the alignment of the metal lining cannot make connection, so button does not function correctly. Things just break.

  • On/off button stuck, messaging screen stuck in landscape mode

    I have had my iPhone 4 for 1 year and 1 month. It has been great up to two days ago when the on/off button mysteriously quit working. Then, today the messaging screen just froze in landscape mode. I have been googling my problem and the average response is to reset your phone. Which makes sense, except I can't use my little on/off button. So, what can I do? Super annoying to text in landscape mode...Help me!!

    Can I turn off my phone using the accessibility feature and then plug it in to a power source to turn it back on? It may reset my messaging screen...I can live without the lock button but I'm not a fan of texting in landscape mode. I just want to for sure know the power source will turn it back on.

  • Iphone 5 on/off button in main display

    Dear All,
    I have recently bought a Iphone 5  with 32 Mb and one feature that I miss from my Nokia is the on/off button on the main display, as I need to do it every day four times when going on the car to use hands free, I have checked in the Iphone 5 and it needs to go to settings, bluetooth and then on/of ( three clicks ) before I can do the operation compared to Nikia one click.
    Any idea how to resolve this problem and have the on/off buttom on the main display?
    Thanks for the support and regards

  • Red off button stuck, phone in reset loop.

    I sold my z2 to a friend, and when he has tried to insert his new sim has forced the red reset/ off button down too hard, and its stuck. So now when the phone has any charge it is stuck in the cycle of reseting itself, vibrating 3 times and the sony logo comes up, and it just keeps doing this. Are there any tips on unsticking the reset button.
    Cheers
    Liam

    Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
    I'm sorry to hear that. But if it's not possible to release the button by pressing it again, it sounds more like a hardware issue that needs to be examined and repaired by a technician at an authorized service center. You can always try to perform a software repair via PC Companion to exclude software related problems:
    http://support.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/pc-companion/
    In PC Companion you press start on Support Zone > Start on Update the phone/tablet software > Repair phone/tablet (the blue clickable link in the message) > Follow these steps without having your device connected to the PC.
    Follow the instruction that appears in the program and do not connect your device until this guide tells you how to connect it.
    If this software repair does not help, I suggest that you contact your local support team for further information about how to proceed with this in the best possible way:

  • Iphone 4 on/off button failure, what am I gonna do with it

    on/off button does not work suddenly, home key is not working well neither. Shall I ask apple store help me with it?

    Sounds like you're developing a hardware issue.  Bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

  • Iphone 5 on/off button won't function right

    Recently, my on/off sleep/wake button on my iphone won't cooperate sometimes and I'm ending up pushing it down a couple times for it to lock. Can someone help??

    Is it physically stuck in? If it is, you will want to call AppleCare (US)
    If it is not physically stuck in, then try backing up your iPhone in iTunes and then restoring it to factory settings. That will rule out any potential software problem. If it still doesn't work, you can go to the Apple Store or call AppleCare (US)
