IPhone 5 Lock button problem

Hello , i am new to this country (India) i am from Dubai before coming here i bought myself an iPhone5 and its been around 3 months i am having trouble with my lock button.It wont work on the first tap i have to press it on some angle or sometimes tap many times to make it work.Where can i get my phone fixed and will my warranty work here in this country?

Until you get your Warranty and repair issues sorted, try to protect your Lock Button. Use Assistive Touch when convenient. Settings App > General > Accessibility > Assistive Touch > ON > tap screen white button > Device > Lock Screen. This can even be used to turn iPhone OFF. To turn ON if needed, just connect iPhone to power, charger or USB of computer.

  • Apart from the lock button problem in iphone 5 the display brightness suddenly goes blank and becomes normal after locking and unlocking the iphone. The Apple service centre in India is denying to service the iphone as it was purchase in USA even thoug it

    Apart from the lock button problem in iphone 5 the display brightness suddenly goes blank and becomes normal after locking and unlocking the iphone. The Apple service centre in India is denying to service the iphone as it was purchase in USA even though the iphone is in warranty.

    iPhones do not have an international warranty.  Warranty is valid only for the country of purchase.  This is most likely because different countries require different iPhone models.  Not reasonable to expect all countries to maintain stock for all models.

  • My iPhone lock button is not working

    my iphone lock button is barely working what should i do?

    Thank you for the advice for the lock screen, although useful it does not solve the problem of the buttons not working, really Apple should fix this even though it's over the 12 months, I have had many Iphones now but I've had many problems with them like buttons and screens, I am now going to get one of many other phones that are now as good as Apple Iphone If not better, Apple will be getting old now and competition is much higher , time to move on to the future of better phones )

  • Lock Button Problems for iPhone 4

    I'm having problems with my lock button for my iPhone4 . I need to press real hard to get it to lock or turn off / turn on.
    How can I fix it? Or; How much would it cost for apple to repair it?

    The iphone has a one year warranty.
    Make an appointment at the local genius bar ro call Apple Support. If your iphone is defective, then they will replace it.

  • Will an apple store replace an iphone with lock button problems, but has a small dent on the top

    My iphone 5 lock button only works if I push it in a certain place
    If I go to the apple store will they replace it? I dropped it a couple months ago and there's a small dent on the top

    There's really no way for any of us here to know one way or the other.  You will have to take it to Apple and they will tell you whether they consider it covered under your warranty or not.

  • My iPhone lock button is broken..and now the phone is dead and won't turn on! Help!?

    So the lock button on my iPhone 4 is broken, 100%, and the battery died earlier today, when I plug it in, it usually turns on if it has been dead...I tried doing this for hours and nothing happened, I plugged it into 3 different chargers thinking that might be the problem. And since there isn't a apple store close to me, I went to AT&T and they told me I need to do some type of restart (I forget what it's called) it is where you hold down the home and lock button at the same time, but as you can see that wont work since my lock button Is broken. Is there ANYTHING else I can do to fix it!?

    Looks like a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...
    Be sure to make an appointment first...

  • Lock button problem

    Hi,
    I have got an IPhone 4 and have had it for more than a year. The lock button has suddenly stopped working and so I am forced to use the assited touch funtion. I was wondering if there is anyway of getting it repaired by Apple or getting a new Iphone? I don't have Apple care or insurance with my network but have kept the phone in good condition with protectors and cases. I would appreciate it if someone could help me out and give any advice on what I should do.
    Many Thanks

    I have the same problem with my 16gb ipod touch 2g. If you still have the warrenty on it they will fix it for you. I am going to do that soon to because the warrenty for mine ends in May. They will do it for no charge, but they might have shippingf fees.

  • Change button setup? (Would fix broken lock button problems!)

    Hello there!
    My lock button on the top of my iphone 4s is broken. This seems to be a really common problem that costs a lot to fix.
    Is there anyway you could simply make another button (for example your increase volume button) have the same functions as the lock button?
    This would make people with broken lock buttons able to turn on/off and lock/unlock their phones again!
    Any app that does this or something? Shouldn't it at least be possible? Thank you very much!

    There's no solution available.

    That is a different symptom than the known problem of the button not working but in spite of that the phone may be covered by the following replacement program: https://ssl.apple.com/support/iphone5-sleepwakebutton/

  • IPhone lock button

    The lock button on my iPhone 4 has sunken in a bit, doesn't always lock & doesn't always make a click noise when I press it. Does anyone know if apple will replace my phone? I still have a bit of warranty left

    If you still have your warranty, and you didn't cause the problem (accident or no accident), they should replace it.

    Hey seyede,
    If you are having random shut down issue, make sure that your iPhone is up to date with its software. If it continues, take a look at the article below for some additional support if it does not get passed the Apple logo or contacting Apple support. 
    If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it

    Take care,

  • HT4061 my iphones lock button is broken, and the screen is not cracked but all the settings are set off to the side and i cant type ion my passcode to get into the phone and i cant get into the phone to reset it

    I have the iphone 5

    how or what do i have to do to fix this?
    and im at work so i cant get the serial number to you

    my lock button is broken
    If your lock button is broken, the only solution is to get the phone replaced or repaired.  There is no way to reset the phone without a functioning lock button.
    and im at work so i cant get the serial number to you
    This is a user to user tech support form, not Apple support.  The S/N wouldn't provide any solution regardless.

  • IPhone lock button stuck.

    So the lock button on my iPhone got stuck yesterday. As a result, I am Planning a trip to the Apple Store this weekend, I have a few questions. (Note: My phone is under warrenty)
    1. Will it have to be sent away, or will it be replaced in the store? I have heard both
    2. Being it is under the one year warrenty, will there be any cost to me? One again, I have heard both.

    It will not be sent off as long as it is under warranty it will be fixed in the store or replaced in the store. It will be no cost to you unless it has water damage or a cracked screen. Any physical damage voids the warranty regardless of what is going on. So as long as you have no physical damage and it is still under warranty no worries to you at all.

  • My iphone lock button is broke

    Hello! My iPhone 4S is about 5 months old and when I go to press the lock button/on & off button on the top, it doesn't work! Almost as if somethings stuck there! What do I do?

    Make Genius Reservation and take iPhone to Apple for resoluton under Warranty. Until then, you can use Assistive Touch in Accessibility of Settings App to use perfect Virtual Lock Button. Settings App > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch > ON > tap new White button at bottom of screen > tap Device icon > tap Lock Screen icon. If you use this to turn iPhone OFF, to turn iPhone ON just connect it to power source, ie charger or USB port of computer.
