IPhone 5 lock screen button issue
My lock screen button is not working properly, I had a one year warranty on the phone through apple which expired 9 days ago. My phone is insured through Verizon is this something that would be covered?
Lets get it to work, Sam_123! What is going on with the lock screen? Is it frozen? Have you tried to reset the device? Is there any damage? Share details so that I can help.
Thank you,

Iphone 5 Lock Screen button doesn't work.
Hi, i have an iPhone 5, and the lock button doesn't work immediatley on press. I have to press it about 5 times for this to work... I'm pretty sure my apple warranty has ran out, is there another way of fixing it?
Use virtual power button. Settings App > General > Accessibility > Assistive Touch > ON > Device > Lock Screen. This can even turn iPhone OFF. To turn iPhone ON, connect to power, charger or USB of computer.

I used assistive touch to turn off my iphone, because my lock screen button is not working, so now i cant turn it back on! What i did was, i went to assistive touch, then i held down the lock screen button to turn it off. Now i can't turn it back on.
To turn it back on when you use assistive touch, all you have to do is plug your iphone into a charger and it will power back on

My IPhone shut off by itself and I can't turn it back on. My lock screen button is broken and I tried plugging it into the wall but nothing happened. Can you guys please help me.
IIf the battery was completely drained it might take some time before the phone will respond. Wait at least 30 minutes with the phone connected to the charger. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. If the phone starts up let it continue to charge until it's 100%.
if the broken button will not let you do the reset Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. -

I have no idea why it stopped working. But why it failed does not matter.
Take it to an Apple Store or Authorized Apple Repair Center and have it assessed and see what it would take to get it working. -

My iphone 4s' screen is black, but it's still on and charging. I broke my lock screen button so I am unable to turn it off using the home button and lock button. Is there any other way my phone can restart or turn off ? Is my phone broken for sure?

Most intelligent people would not store such sensitive data on a device that could so easily be lost, stolen, or damaged. Even if they chose to do so, they would use the device as designed and regularly sync and backup that device as described in the User's Guide.
Have you done so? If you have, all of the data is either in iCloud or iTunes on your computer. Replace the device and restore the new iDevice with the backup of the old one. -
I dropped my iPhone 4S on the ground and my lock screen button is jammed, I tried turning it back on by plugging it in to a charger, but it won't turn on. Can anyone help me?
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar. There is no magic that will fix broken hardware.

My iPhone 4S has been frozen in the loading screen I don't know how to fix it:( my lock screen button doesn't work
Without a working lock screen button, you'll probably have to wait for the battery to go dead. Once it doesn't wake up by pressing the home button you can plug it into a charger and it will eventually reboot.

Could it be that the lock screen button on the Iphone 5 is looser than on the Iphone 4?

There isn't a separate app icon for Facetime for the iPhone like there is for the iPad and iPod Touch. Facetime is built into the iPhone's iOS.
Here a refresher on how it works:

Where can i repair my iphone 5 lock/power button?
I have a problem with my iphone 5 lock/power button, it works randomly, but the main issue is that my carrier won't agree to repair/replace it under warranty since it has some minor scratches in the sides.
Here (at mexico) we do not have apple stores so I can't take it there, also apple refuses to take it under warranty because the iphone was purchased directly with the carrier. Any suggestions on how can i solve this issue?
I think it kinda lame to have the year long warranty just to realize you cant make it valid here at mexico under some dumb technicallity.Until you sort out the "dumb technicallity". Use Assistive Touch for perfect Virtual Lock Button. Tap Settings App > General > Accessibility > Assistive Touch > ON > tap new white screen button > Device > Lock. This can even be used to turn iPhone OFF. To turn ON connect to power, charger or USB of computer.

The lock screen button on my ipod 4 is jammed. I want to fix it permanently. how to do it? if not, how much bucks will it take to fix it in apple store???
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

A third-party place like the following can fix yours for less. Google for more.

My iphone 5 lock/home button has been bugging for months but now they are just not respoding at all. I was in the settings page, then
when i tried to go back to home screen they wont work. I tried turning it off, rebooting it, plugging it in, nothing works. I even have that little black square that kets you lock it by touch and not even that works.
What should i do?If i got it in October, but I didnt buy Apple Care, does it still fall under warranty? I dont wanna make the 2 hour trip for nothing. :{
