My iPhone's 5 lock button rattles a little bit, is it normal?

is it normal, please help!

There is defiantly (how do u spell that?) a problem with the home if it rattles as you say...I would take the phone to an apple store and see what they can do I have a few apple devices including the new i devices and have had no rattleing with the home button
it should feel snug and the only direction it should be going is down when you push it and then back up with a click like sound. If you have registered the iPhone then they should replace the iPhone or fix the problem.
Hope this helped!

After 04 months of purchase of iphone 5 the lock button is too hard. At times its not working at all. The phone has been purchased in USA now I'm not getting service in India. After all whats the point in spending so much amount without any service.

The warranty says that Apple may restrict service of an iPhone to the country of sale, and any reliable salesperson will tell you that if you tell them that you plan to use the iPhone in another country. Such service restrictions are common with cellphones and are by no means limited to Apple's phones.
Sorry, but if your iPhone requires service, you will need to send it to someone you know in the US who can get it serviced and then send it back to you.

How can you restart or turn off your iPhone if the lock button does not work?

The best way is to let the battery die. Or you can reset the phone settings which restarts everything.

Why doesn't my iPhone 5 power/lock button work?

I just called the apple support people and I had told them my issue of my iPhone 5 power/lock button being dis functional. I had also told them I went to the apple store in guilford mall surrey,bc I had a week left in my warranty at that point. When I went to the apple store i told the representatives that my battery was having some problems ( this issue was resolved) and I told the representative that my power button sometimes has a problem but not as much. The representative did not take this into consideration and told me " to not use my phone as rough ". At this point I had thought my main issue was to only get my battery issue resolved which was resolved, so I didn't really think about asking one more time about the power/lock button. 2 weeks after my warranty had expired I first called apple support telling them I am having many difficulties with my lock/power button. They told me at that point it would cost $260+tax to replace the phone. Then I told them that I have already talked to your representatives at the apple store in guilford mall surrey bc and that they didn't take it into consideration at that point. The apple care person told me "I'm sorry sir you could've have only gotten it replaced when you were still under warranty" and he said " the only option here is to restore your phone ( which I did and nothing changed) or replace your phone by paying $260+ tax. After I told them I would try going to the store again to resolve this disappointing issue. When I went in the store today I told the same thing I told to the representative over the phone and the store representative told me "sorry your appointment of coming before your warranty is not showing up on my system" then I pulled up an email confirming that I had actually come to the same apple store before my warranty had expired. He still didn't take anything into consideration and told me to just use the accessible touch or pay the amount to replace my phone I am very disappointed because when I went before my warranty was about to expire the representative didn't advise me to get my phone replaced and simply didn't take my concern into consideration. I hope the manager of the store looks into this for the future customers and tries to resolve my issue. Thanks

After your appointment at the Genius Bar, you received an email asking for your feedback. I suggest you copy these comments and paste them there. Ranting here serves no purpose at all.

Do I need insurance to get a new iPhone if my lock button doesn't work?

I have an iPhone 4 and my lock button doesn't work anymore. I've asked around and some of my friends think it's a malfunction in the spring, I was wondering if I could get a new phone since it's a malfunction and that it's not my fault.

Hi
If it's within the first year's warranty or within the extended applecare warranty period it will be repaired free of charge provided the fault does not contravene the conditions of the warranty.
If it's out of warranty you can pay for an out-of-warranty repair.
Either way you should take it to either your service provider or your nearest apple store.
HTH?

My iPhone's Sleep/Lock Button doesn't work?

I have an iPhone 4 which iv had it for almost a year now and yesterday night I pressed on the lock button and it wouldn't sleep ? or Lock??? I have NEVER ever dropped an iPhone or any phone.. NO it has never gotten wet, the phones button no longer does the clicking sound and feels stiff like pressing down on rubber. I do have warranty on my phone until 2012 of June. What can I do ?, can I get my phone replaced for a NEW one or Fixed ?

Hey i a few months ago had the problem, and like *gdgmacguy said i did so. I took out my phone i downloaded the Apple Store App and i set up an appointment with a guy at the genius bar, i went the next day with only my phone and nothing else, we talked about what was the problem and he took a look at it with a little light which i guess it was to make sure it wasnt droped in the water and within 5 min he just took a brand new iPhone for me. So i walked out with the reciept of the exchange (Paid $0.00. ) and a brand new iPhone 4.

Iphone 4s power/lock button click

When I press the power button on the right side, it sounds different than I press somewhere else.
The click isn't the same and this thing is annoying. I don't know if this is a problem, the button isn't stuck, it works well.
I want to know if the click sounds the same, anyway you press the button.
Sorry for my english and thanks

Your Power/Lock button now has a broken component, this is covered by your Apple Warranty. Make a Genius Reservation and take iPhone to Apple for resolution.
The important click function is made by a plastic component just under the metal button you touch on the outside. This plastic component has a 1mm nub in the middle. This plastic part is damaged, most likely the nub has broken off. The plastic piece can be replaced itself without replacing the whole Flex Cable, but Warranty Service with Apple is best solution right now.

My iphone lock button has gone a bit 'soft'

I currently have an iphone 4s and it works perfectly except for the lock button, before when I pressed the lock button there would be a little 'click', however now when I press it there isn't one. It still works but it just doesn't feel right. Should I just take it to an apple store?

If it is still under warranty, Apple reserves the right to either repair or replace with comparable item...take it to an Apple genius bar, have them examine it and see what they decide to do.

IPhone 5 faulty lock button

I recently read that a faulty lock button on an iPhone 5 was a known issue and as such Apple would offer a free repair. Does this still apply if you are way out of warranty?

IPhone 5S power/lock button does not unlock screen intermittently

I bought my iPhone 5S about a month ago, I usually use the power/lock button to wake my phone up before I unlock using TouchID. However I noticed this strange behaviour where I press the power/lock button and it doesn't go to the standby screen, instead I see the screen appearing and then locking back (assistive touch button can be seen too just before LCD powers off).
It feels as if the power/lock button is registering 2 clicks instead of one. This happens intermittently and not sure if this would become worse in future. Anyone facing this issue as well?

The steps below can help resolve issues with a non-functional sleep/wake button on your iPhone.

To lock the phone, press the Sleep/Wake button. Note: By default, if you don't touch the screen for a minute, iPhone locks automatically.
To unlock iPhone, press the Home button or the Sleep/Wake button, then slide the slider.
