Problem regarding the power button
Firstly, I would like to apologize that I'm not inquiring on the iPhone issues.
Sir, I wanna ask regarding the power button of galaxy s3. Why sometimes when I press the power button, the power button will stuck inside? Is this repairable? I already sent to the Samsung service center twice, yet the result is still same where the power button will stuck inside especially when you press at the edge of the button instead pressing it at its center point. Thanks for your precious information, iFixit.

The power button is made of a flexible plastic. I don't think there is much you can do to fix it yourself. I would return it again and ask they fit a new button. Or if you can find one online fit it yourself. Its very easy to replace as it pushes out from inside quite easily

I have the same problem. I have my Galaxy S3 for only two weeks now. Last week the problem started. Sometimes the power button is stuck and the S3 reboots. Sometimes it switches off and then it's hard to switch it on because of the stuck button. Did you have it fixed by replacing the power button yourself? Where can I order such a button online? Best regards, Raymond.
Ray,
Lol. Did you face the same problem for a new set of S3 device? Unluckiness. I just send to the Samsung Service Centre and they replaced the power button, so far it's good now. But I don't sure if the same problem will reoccur. It seems that my set has a lower quality compared to my friends' ones which have no problem at all. Send the problematic device to your Telco/Samsung Service Centre for claiming warranty or repair.
