My iPod is 4th generation and the version is 4.3.5 the lock button is jammed and I need to shut it off completely how can I do this without the lock button
You can't with iOS 4. If you update to the latest, 6.1.6 you can use Assistive Touch
Settings>General>Accessibility
To update
iOS 4: Updating your device to iOS 5 or later
Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes
- A 4G to 6.1.6 Requires iTunes version 10.7 or later. For a Mac, that requires a Mac with OSX 10.6.8 or later -

My lock screen is frozen! It will not let me slide to unlock or touch the screen at all. I can't power it down either because the lock button is broken. A friend of mine said I might need a new Digitizer? Is there anyway I can avoid that? Pleasae Help!
I am having the SAME exact problem! Except instead of lock button broken it's my home button so I can't do the whole "put in recovery mode" deal. My screen only says "tap the home button 3 times" and it has my screen locked until I hit the home button but since it is broken I can't get in my phone at all. I have all of my work info in my phone so I'm screwed and can't get any help. PLEASE let me know if you find a way around this...!!!
Thanks! -

My lock button is broken and i cant figure out how to turn my phone on with my computer, any tips?
my lock button is jammed and i read somewhere that you can turn your phone on through itunes. i have tried plugging it up to a charger and doing everything you can imagine to get the button unjammed. i cant figure out how to use itunes to get it to turn on, any advice or know of another way?
maybe your power button is pushed down and won't allow it to turn on.
usually when you touch any button on an iphone, it will turn on. wether it's the home or power button.
you should take your phone into the apple store. -
I got the iphone 5 six months ago. The lock button broke two months ago so I went to apple and got a new one. My lock button just recently broke so can I go get another phone seeing that it is still within the first year? Or will they not give me another one seeing I already got a new one? I've had the phone for six months and the lock button has already broke twice.
There is no limit on warranty replacements.
As long as it is defective,not damaged -
My iPhone 4s shut off and won't turn back on? My lock button is broken, so I can not reboot it.
As I said, my lock button has broken so I can not use that to reboot it. My iPhone was charging when it shut off, i locked it and walked away from my phone for a few seconds and when I came back to unlock it, it was completely unresponcive. I use my phone to talk to all my friends and listen to music, please help asap. Also, I tried plugging it into my computer and it just won't do anything. Is my iPhone literally just, dead?
You can try and let the phone sit for a period and then try connecting it again to the power source. If that doesn't work, I cannot think of another solution. The only way to reset the phone in a case such as this is to old the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. However, since you say the sleep/wake button doesn't work, then there is no alternative. I'm puzzled though when you say that you locked the phone and walked away. If the lock button doesn't work, how did you do that?

My Iphone isn't responding to anything, and I can't do the home/lock button restore becasue my lock button is broken and I've been using assistive touch. Any ideas as to how to turn it back on?
Try plugging it into the charger. Unfortunately, without a functioning sleep/wake button, it will be diffucult to do a number of troubleshooting steps. See if it will start that way. If not, you may need to leave it for a period to see if the battery will die out and then plugging it in may restart it. Otherwise, you will need to take the device to Apple to see about repair/replacement.

My iphone 4 lock button stopped working and now it won't charge
Hi.
A couple of weeks ago my iphone 4's lock button randomly stopped working, I had never dropped my iphone so I couldn't figure out why this had occurred. I did not see this as a big problem until recently when my iphone stopped charging. The iPhone had worked just as normal the day before it stopped charging. I usually charge my iphone over night, but one night it reached around 85% and stopped charging. I have tried it with several different iphone chargers and different plugs in the house but still the iPhone wouldn't charge. Now my iphone has ran out of battery and due to the fact that my lock button is broken, I can't try anything to turn it on. Does my battery need replacing?
Thanks,

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.
