N97 unlock button fell off

guys today my n97 unlock button fell off ...i did google search and found out thats a common manufacturing defect in n97 ...so please can anyone tell me any solution for this thing...this phone is really getting on my nerve now..

Same thing happened to me 2 weeks ago (phone around 5 months old), sent in the phone for repair via my service provider and was advised that the repair failed there quality check and they gave me a new handset
Therefore if its still under warranty i recommend you get it repaired as it should be done for free.

  • IPhone 3GS volume button fell off? Which glue to use

    Hi
    My 3GS volume button fell off. It costs alot to fix it since they got to take it apart.
    I was thinking of adding glue to put it back. Has anyone done this? Any good suggestions on which glue to use?
    Thanks.

    I would recommend an out of warranty repair or a 3rd party repair company and NOT glue.

  • Camera Button fell off

    Received my Droid X 5th Aug.  Yesterday I started to take a picture and noticed the snap button missing. Now I have a choice pay $90 to receive another phone or not use my camera. AND if I send my phone in for replacement and it is decided the missing button is physical damage I will be charged $600. Im glad it was not the power button that fell off!!!!!
    Can any one tell me where I can purchase a snap on button for the droid x (3week old) that does not cost $90-$600 dollars!!!!

    Yes it does have the shutter button on screen.
    As for the rep at the store, it sounds highly suspect that they would not take to time to look at the phone if you made a trip up to the store.  If they did not look at it I would have insisted that they do so, or speak to a manager.
    Maybe the button fell off, maybe you dropped the phone and it popped off, we will never know for certain.  This is a case that should be settled in person at a corporate store.
    As for threatening to take your business elsewhere because of this, good luck.  Sprint calls bad phone updates physical damage, T-Mobile has crap coverage area and won't stand behind their products, AT&T just sucks in general.

  • My down arrow button fell off and wont' go back on

    My MBP is about a month old, and today the down arrow popped off, and won't seem to stay on.
    It made me realize that with the new design, the keyboard can't really be replaced, should I go to the Genius Bar, does anybody know what they might do to fix this?

    Hi jperkinski,
    Speaking from personal experience, many of the Genius Bars have "spare keys" laying around from old keyboard assemblies and top cases. I know I've had my MacBook keys replaced once or twice and in both cases the Mac Genius was able to get me a new keycap and the little plastic scissor that sits underneath it.
    Definitely head down to your nearest Genius Bar (make sure to make an appointment) and see if they can assist.

  • IPhone 3GS Sleep button falling off

    Recently i went to press my sleep button and it was dodgy and didnt put my iphone to sleep and when i put my iphone down on my desk the sleep button fell off please can you help me what to do?

    The sleep/wake/power button is very important. If it "fell off" then you must have a crack or bad defect in the case in that area. Glue, such as Super Glue can work wonders if you know what you are doing. If you are not careful with such strong glue you can also do much worse damage to the iPhone. Until you get this repaired, or better yet buy a new phone, you can use Assistive Touch for perfect Virtual Button. Tap Settings App > General > Accessibility > Assistive Touch > ON > tap the new small white screen button > Device > Lock. You can even use this button to turn the iPhone OFF. To turn the iPhone ON, connect to power ie, charger or USB of computer.

  • Nokia X6 lock button BROKEN OFF

    my lock button fell off 2 months after me purchasing it.
    Has anyone else had this problem, with it breaking off?
    plus, i took it to the shop and they said i hav to pay to get it fixed , and i did argue it was nothing to do with me and that it was vert loose from the start.

    Nokia X6 - this seems to be such a common problem. I had my phone "repaired" by O2 just a few weeks ago (unfortunately just over 30 days so my supposed rights aren't great). The new phone (the majority of my phone is new, but O2 call it a repair 'cos they've put the original motherboard in!) has just had the slide switch spring go too.
    Why do 100s of people have to experience the same inconvenience before Nokia change the design and admit that it is a design fault and that the phone is not fit for purpose - unless you never use the phone, the lock switch will always go after a short time - it is not made to withstand multi-daily use.  Makes me very cross that I can't now change to a (lesser) model of phone that does not have a design flaw.  When will this silly switch idea be withdrawn?  Still got a year to go on my current contract, but I think only solution is to put SIM into a decent phone. Sorry, but just saying it as it is. 

  • Button panel fell off- Warranty?

    Hi, Just wondered if anyone else has a Torch and the panel of buttons on the front (with the answer key etc on) has fallen off?
    I took it back to my provider but they say they can't fix it under warranty as they said it's 'physical damage' It just fell off!! The sticky pad holding it onto the phone just isn't that sticky.Under the blackberry warranty terms it states "...that the BlackBerry Hardware will be free from defects in workmanship and materials" sureley this is covered as it's a defect in the materials?
    If anyone else could respond that would be great. Or if Blackberry could confirm it's under warranty that would be even better, I've only had it 3 months and I'm in a 18 month contract.
    Thanks

    You can but a new set of keys for 8 bucks if they wont warranty it.

  • HT4085 i tried to fix screen rotation on my ipad 2 after upgrading to ios 7.  did the lock / unlock button, the on/off and even reset to factory settings... nothing works... do not know what to do... any suggestions?

    i tried to fix screen rotation on my ipad 2 after upgrading to ios 7.  did the lock / unlock button, the on/off and even reset to factory settings... nothing works... do not know what to do... any suggestions?

    When you reset to factory settings, did you restore as new or did you restore from a backup? If you restored from a backup, you could try restoring as new and don't use the backup. If you do that, you will lose all of your data, but you can download or sync all of your content back to the iPad.
    You could also try resetting all settings before your restore as new. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. You will have to re enter all device settings again.
    And of course the possibility does exist that the iPad has developed a hardware problem that is causing the rotation issue and only a visit to an Apple Store could determine that for sure.

  • Z1 silver Power button ring fell off!!

    My Xperia Z1's silver ring around the power button just came off. It just fell off. I need to know if this is a serious issue and if it affects the waterproofness of the phone? I seems as if it was just held on by a little glue but now i cant trust the waterproofness. I searched online and found two other people complaining about it but with no replies. Can anybody please inform me how serious this is?

    Just as Alexdon said you should turn to a service centre. This may interfere with the phones IP classification.

  • Power button ring fell off!

    My Xperia Z1 is just 5 months old.I bought it brand new and it is an expensive device, but now I am having some issues with the power button. I am really disappointed with Sony. It was only recently that I noticed that it felt different pressing the power button. My friend who happen to be an xperia Z1 owner too, told me that the ring encircling the little button in the middle is gone. It fell off. I am from the Philippines and unlike in the US we are not getting much support here. I don't know were to take my phone to or who should I talk to about this issue. I had an Xperia Z before and I had some issues with it and I took it to a local shop for repair. The technician damaged my phone and now it is totally dead. My question is, will it be covered under warranty? I bought this from a certified Sony selling center just last August 2014 l. It's just 6 mos. old and it can't be a wear and tear issue because I take good care of my phone and I am not a heavy user. This must be a defect and Sony must do something about this. I am hesitant in paying for the repairs. Oh gahd, I really don't know what to do.

    I am a big fan of Sony, they used to produce quality phones but now I had to purchase two xperia phones within a year because the phone won't last a year without having any issues. I am thinking that since the metallic ring encircling the power button just fell off.. I'm worried that the rest of it will follow. Please someone tell me what to do. I want Sony to be involved in this case that I am having with my Xperia phone.

  • Lumia 520 unlock button

    I bought my Lumia 520 not far from release date, and two months later i had a unlock button problem but i thought it was just software and i reset and it didn't change and because the Nokia care centre is far from me i had to use the cam button to unlock my phone, then it would work and stop. It once stopped working for a whole week so i switched it on using the charger when it was off due to battery. On the 21 September it stopped working completely, it has dropped in after i tried to press it while on the charger. What do i do from here? And why are so many people complaining about this phones unlock button?

  • Palm Centro Unlock Button

    The key unlock button on my Palm Centro has ceased to work.  The only way to access the phone is to remove and replace the battery then use it before it goes to the sleep mode.  Has anyone else encountered this problem, and how did you solve it?
    Thanks,

    Post relates to: Centro (AT&T)

    No, I have not installed any new software lately.  I started having the Keyguard problem a week or two ago and it was intermittant.  It would not work at all for several hours then would start working normally for a few hours.  About the time I was ready to give up on it, the Keyguard would start working again.  Finally, two days ago, I could not get it to work at all and had to recycle the battery to get to the phone to turn it on or off or make a call.  That is when I did some research and found out how to disable the Keyguard function.  It appears to working normally now except that the Keyguard function is disabled.  Do you think I should do a hard reset?
