Lock button not working + still have warranty. What do I have to do?

Hello!
Yesterday my lock button stopped working. I still have my warranty but the problem is I live in Belgium and there is no Apple Store there. Is there any way I can get my phone repaired without having to go abroad? I'm now using Assistive Touch but it just doesn't feel the way it should...
Greetings & thanks!

To get any iOS device repaired much be done so in country of where th device was purchased. So if where you live is where you purchased the device then contact Apple Support whcih is given for your area of livinging.
If the iOS device was not purchased where you live, then willl need to figure out how to go about getting to where the iOS device was purchased to get repair done for it.

    Those are hardware issues. You can try all of the software troubleshooting if you want. Restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. If that does not work, then your only option is to pay someone for something. The decision is up to you, but I've provided the options.

    Then you still are in your Apple one year hardware warranty and can get it replaced/repaired.

    Nobody here can possible speak for Apple whether it is a warranty failure or not.  You need to take it into an Apple store or send it to Apple and have them evaluate it.  If they decide it is a warranty failure and you are still within your warranty period, then yes, it will be replaced with a factory refurbished unit for free.
    If it is determined to be due to something you have done, then the warranty does not apply and you would have to pay the out of warranty replacement fee.

  • Lock button not working for iPhone4

    Hi All,
    My lock button not working from last 2months, I am using assistive touch for time being.
    I bought my mobile in UK 1year back, currently i am staying in India.
    My real problem is, recently i visited apple store. The guys in the store are saying, it is against to their law to serve or repair mobiles which were bought in other country..
    I think this is rediculous.. Just i need some information how to fix it or how to contact the correct person regarding this POOR service.
    Thanks
    Rajesh

    No. The warranty is only valid in the country of purchase. All service for iPhones in UAE is provided by the supported carriers. You can find a list here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937
    If you did not purchase it from one of the carriers listed, then you probably purchased an illegally imported gray market phone.
    Check Settings>General>About. What does it say for Model #?

    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart..  Reset..  Restore from Backup..  Restore as New...
    Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds...
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On...
    If that does not help... See Here:

  • IPhone 5 lock button not working at all. If I'm in the one year warranty still but don't have apple care will I have to pay to get it fixed or will it be covered

    I have a iPhone 5 and about a month ago my lock button stopped working. It takes me about ten tries to power it back on or to lock it. If I'm still in my one year warranty will I have to pay to get it fixed? I didn't purchase apple care though so I'm wondering if it's going to cost me to get it fixed or if it's still covered because of the one year warranty? Thank you!

    If it's due to a manufacturing defect, the warranty will cover it. If it's due to accidental damage, it'll cost to get it fixed unless it happened during an authorized repair.

  • Lock button not working. Do I go through apple or Verizon for a new phone?

    I got the phone through Verizon back in October, so it should still be under warranty right? The lock button just started to not work, I have to press it again and again, even then sometimes it won't lock. I also don't live in an area where there's an apple store anywhere near me. Just wondering how I would be able to get a new phone or what they would do.

    If a hardware defect is found, Apple will replace your phone free of charge.  You can bring your phone to Apple, or arrange to have your phone sent in using the support link on Apple's website.  Verizon does NOT handle warranty exchanges or repairs on the iPhone.

  • Lock button not working and gettin very hot when used.

    Hi my lock button started working intermittently but now has stopped working completely. When in use it get very hot and when charging its so hot u can't touch it. Unsure what to do as only had iPhone 5 since march.

    Your phone is still under warranty.  Bring the phone to Apple for evaluation and probable replacement.

  • Central button Not working ..... now ? 5 buttons not working !!! What can i do?

    Hello all,
    I bought my blackberry torch in September 2011  and two months ago the center button was problem (bellow the screen)  and not working at all. so I gave it to a company to fix it and told me to round 45 euros to fix it. also told me that it will be ready in the new year because they would have holiday. The man there made a report saying the problem with the center button (only had this problem, I note) and now they brought me back and told me  they can not fix it and they send it to blackberry but  even they could not fix it.  Enable my phone  front of them and did not operate any button of 5 bellow the screen (two to the right of the center button that had problems and two to the left). I told them to send it back to the technician because when I gave to you to fix it only one button was not working and now none of the 5.
    After nearly two months they brought me back and told me ''we can not do anything ....'' So,five buttons not working.
    What can I do in this case????
    Not got it from there yet to see what I can do or what can I say?
    I think I'm right. It is reasonable to I want my phone back with only one button broken as I gave it to them and not with extra 4 buttons not work.
    Sorry for my english, I hope you understand  

    A battery pull does nothing to improve the performance of the battery, it clears your phone's cache of unwanted fragments that have accumulated and this improves the performance of your phone.  I doubt it's as simple as this but it wouldn't be the first time I've heard of a service centre charging money for repairs when a simple battery pull would have done the trick.
    When you get your phone back (working properly or not), I suggest trying a battery pull.

  • Lumia 620 lock button not working

    Hi there, new to posting,
    had my 620 about 6 months now (2nd hand) and recently the middle button on the side to lock has got less and less responsive. Even if i take the back cover off and expose the buttons themselves i still have to hold down the screen down quite hard and press to lock, the other buttons on the side still respond perfectly. Is this a problem that can be repaired in a shop or Nokia centre?
    Many thanks X

    Yes it will be needed to be sent to an official nokia care centre.
    If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.
    Now using the Lumia 1520

  • Lock button not working on iPhone 5 OUT OF WARRANTY

    Has this happened to anyone else, will it be covered? I mind the phone so well its like perfect apart from the lock button. What do i do?

    No, you don't. Decent, mature people try to remain polite. If you go in with that sort of combative attitude, don't be surprised if people aren't willing to do everything they can to help you. I work in retail. If a customer comes in with a problem and a reasonable attitude, I will bend every rule, turn over every rock I can to help them. If they come in acting like an entitled jerk, I will be just as polite and I will offer them precisely what policy says and not one iota more. So, you need to consider, which is more important? Your ego? Or getting your phone fixed.
    And some day, you too may work in a customer facing job. Build up the good karma while you can.

  • 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
