My iPhone 5 Lock Button doesnt work

Hi, Im from Argentina, i bought a iPhone 5 in january of this year (2013) in Panama.
Since 1 month ago the lock button started to work bad.
Now doesnt work, I call premium resellers in Argentina and they said me that the didnt work with apple guarantee
How can i use that international guarantee to fix my lock button problem ?
Thank you very much
Sorry for my bad english.

The iPhone has NEVER had an international warranty. Warranty is ONLY valid in the country of purchase. You will need to bring your phone to Panama for service from Apple.

Is it the Home button that doesn't work, or the Power (Sleep/Wake) button? If the Power button works, you can switch it off. Not sure how you have been able to do anything without the Home button working?

My iphone 4s is frozen and my lock button doesnt work and i cant slide to power off the phone. HELP

my iphone 4s is frozen on the lock screen. my lock button doesnt work and i cant slide to power off the phone. It has 100% battery and nothing happens when i plug it into the computer.
My phone screen also is in negative. It is like twitching and ive tried to invert the colors but thats not it. i cant see any apps, pictures , or anything in regular colors. PLEASE HELPPP!

You can't. You'll have to wait until the battery runs out and then recharge the phone. It will restart.
Sounds like now's a good time to get the phone fixed.

Unless somebody else has a micracle workaround I don't know. Probably get the phone in for repair since it has been living on borrowed time so far and now you absolutely must have a working button.

How do you get your ipod unfrozen if your lock button doesnt work?

My lock button doesnt work anymore and my ipod's screen is frozen. How do i get it unfrozen without using the lock button?

Try the instruction here the best you can. WHen it says place the iPod in recovery mode use this program.

- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

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

My screen is smashed and lock button doesnt work, i pay insurance but apple is making me pay $230 when i havent even had my phone for a year! This happened to my friend and they just replaced hers :(

Apple doesn't sell insurance. Talk to your insurance company. The warranty does not cover accidental damage or abuse.
If you purchased AppleCare+, you can get up to 2 discounted (US$49) replacements over the course of 2 years for user inflicted damage. Sounds like that's not what you have.
As I said, talk to your insurance company.

I have an iphone 5 that i trade with a family member they have coverage on it. now the iphones sleep wake button doesnt work sometimes can apple replace my iphone even if i dont have the box or recipit to the product or can they just repair it?

i have an iphone 5 that i traded with from a family member. its has coverage but now the sleep/wake button doesnt work sometimes. can apple replace my iphone and give me a new one or is it just something they can repair? i dont have the box or recipit to apple care or the iphone

Apple can fix it without your receipt or box. They pull the serial number from the device and determine warranty status from that. Hopefully ApplCare was registered to the product before you lost the receipt though. If not, you can go back to the point of purchase and obtain your AppleCare receipt and Apple can help attach it to the iPhone.

Iphone 5 lock button not working

should i take my iphone 5 in to the apple store if only half my lock button is working?

Otherwise if you dont want to pay for repairs:
settings>general>accesibility>assistive touch
that will help

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.

My lock button doesnt work

i got my iphone a month a go i never dropped it and the lock button doesnt work

Apple will look at it and possible find the source of the problem. Normally they will not fix an iPod, Instead, they will exchange it for a refurbished iPod. Her is the price:
Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
You need to make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If you go to the store's website, there is a section for making an appointment.

Iphone 5 lock button dosent work immediatley...

Hi, i have an iPhone 5, and the lock button dosent work immediatley on press. you have to press it about 5 times for this to work... apparently this should be covered by apple warranty, and if so, how would i get this problem fixed?
Thanks,

You can go into a Apple Store and have them replace it no questions asked.
It is a major defective problem for phones that were bought at launch or within the 2 month period. Apple fixed this issue in the end of January 2013.
Just go in and have them replace it for you at no cost. The information will be on file with them on the day you turned on your phone. They will go by this date as you purchasing it to verify warranty.
