What's a power button? [Sarcasm2]

IF you mean the wake sleep button on the top ....


Apple has a recall about that


https://www.apple.com/support/iphone5-sleepwakebutton/

see if your phone qualifies.

you might be able to get a 350 buck credit towards a new iPhone 6 or 5s if you want.


Even if your phone doesn't fit the serial range on the page I posted before... go to the apple store and throw a polite fit. apple has a habit of fixing stuff just to keep the customer happy.

last year they replaced my MacBook Pro screen for free after it fell off the couch . Earlier in the year before that they replaced my 4S that had gotten damaged ( screen trashed..) in a bar fight ( long story I was the bouncer tho) free of charge.


Say what you want about Apple but if you are polite to the employees at the stores they will jump thru hoops for you.

If you get the 6, just don't put it in your pocket or put any unusual pressure (~5lbs) on it.

Company called U Break I Fix in Lone Tree does iPhone repairs. Maybe worth a call. They replaced my broken screen for $160ish

I would have bet $5 that was what this thread was going to be about. [Coffee]

To apologize, Apple will include the next Nickelback album onto 8.0.2
