Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Hello, my lock/sleep/wake button on the top of my phone has not worked since I bought the Iphone 5c a year ago. All the sudden its working and its going crazy, it is locking my screen every 5 seconds. Is there way to disable the button without jail breaking it?
iPhone 5c, iOS 8.1.3
im having the same issue i was wondering if you ever found a solution
Take it to an Apple store for diagnosis. Some iPhones have defective buttons, and the devices will be replaced (even after the warranty expires) if yours is in the "bad batch." Make an appointment.
I cant because I bought it second hand... I'm wondering if i can take it somewhere to have the digitizer repaired.
haha this is awkward. Im using this phone that has the messed up lock button right now bc my usual phone wont respond to touch, so i cant slide to unlock it. sorry im confusing lol

Yes, you can. Warranty (and any recalls) follow the phone, not the original purchaser.
There is not a way to disable that button.
And if the " diagnostic" shows that the button is stuck because of accidental damage, it will be an out of warranty repair ( I think these are still 199.00$)
Lock button is stuck and keeps locking my phone is there a way to disable it?
