Fitting a new lock screen button.. Heeellpp

[ShadyBliss]

I'm having trouble getting the lock screen button back in.. Every way I have tried doesn't work.. The button is not click able.. And I can only find guides to take it out not fitting...


NOT TALKING ABOUT THE HOME BUTTON PLEASE STOP POSTING ANSWER ABOUT THAT LOL

 

[ShadyBliss]

Does anyone use these forums lol?.. Or does no one know of how to fit the lock button.

Hard reset. Or restore as new phone. Done the same to mine.

 

[ShadyBliss]

Your reply has nothing to do with what I asked lol..

Take it to the Apple store if it's still under warranty. That'd be the best option.

 

[Darkstar2007]

Although if your device isn't under warranty anymore, try ifixit.com
They have a guide for every repair imaginable.

 

[ShadyBliss]

Already been there.. And they only show a guide to how to take it out.. Which isn't rocket science.. But putting it back in is! :O

 

[ShadyBliss]

Anyone know what to do?

Bummmp

The only thing I can think is the button you're trying to replace w/ is faulty in some way. I've replaced several home buttons on the 3GS & 4... never had this issue. I've always purchased them from ifixit.com. Perhaps you've purchased a knock-off that just won't work.

Oh I apologize... got to the bottom & thought we were talking about the other. Sorry.. :-(

That's ok .. Just hoping someone has done the same and knows how to put the button back in correctly

Even I got it changed by the professional hands . Its got a spring device below which demands a expertise. Next tome get a virtual home button on your screen through the applications menu and use it ....your home button will get sparingly used and last long

Do you know what I'm talking about or not?.. I'm not talking about the home button... The LOCK SCREEN button at the top of the phone lol..
