If the power button on your phone doesn’t work, we recommend doing a soft reset of your phone. Fortunately, this trick won’t remove any personal data or details–but it’s the fastest way to reset a phone and potential software glitch.
If the button is still not responding, check for potential water damage or debris around the device. Water damage may affect the internal mechanisms of the phone and button responsiveness. Sticky substances, crumbs, or other debris may also affect how well the phone button responds to clicking. When there is no discernible cause, we recommend bringing your phone into our Sunshine Coast-based mobile phone repair shop for review.
