Difficult to press Lock button, will a replacement be okay?
Hey guys. So I hear if someone has a malfunctioning lock/hold button, then most of the time it will be the mechanism below the button, not what ifixit sells. I have an iPhone 4 with a lock button, but it's hard to push down and it's getting worse.
Will I need to get Apple to replace the switch below the actual button, or will a replacement button do?
Is this a good question?

is the power button loose? does it give a nice clicky sound? ifixit does sell the power button flex cable here it is: [linked product missing or disabled: IF182-015]
but it may not be the flex cable it maybe that the power button itself is not lining up with the flex cable or something like that.

No, no nice clicky sound :) so that part you've linked to me will also replace the mechanism that 'clicks' with the lock button?
