I've had my iphone 5 for about 7 months and it's been having all sorts of problems, like the sleep/turn off button is not working like it did when i first got the phone! I have to press the button harder and on the left side for it to work. Is there anything I can do? Does anyone know the cause of it?
iPhone 5, iOS 6.0.2
What you can do is get the iPhone to an Apple Store Genius Bar for service. If you wait until there is a software failure, you will never be able to correct it, with a malfunctioning sleep/wake button.
As for your other question, it's a mechanical feature. Mechanical features wear out. You'd know the why better than anyone here.
my iphone 4 sleep\wake button doesnot working properly
