Lockbutton, speakers and mutebutton

Hey i just got a iPhone 2g very cheap, but have some problems with it.

1. Lock /sleep button dont work.

2. Silent button is broken, so its just vibrating when someone calls me

3. Headphone jack plugin is pushed inside the phone, so the metalthing dont fit it.

4. Speakers got poor quality

This sounds like hardware problems right?

I was thinking of buying parts from ifixit or other sites and fix it myself.

Could you guys give me link to the right products so solve these problems? (im not 100% sure if the products i looked at is the right one)

Thanks in advance!

Well you should be able to solve most of these by replacing the headphone jack.

About the recessed headphone jack, that's just how the original iPhone was made, I know it sucks, and Apple fixed it for the iPhone 3G, but you'll have to live with it, you have to either use apple's provided earbuds, (which you can get here) or get an adapter.

I guess i will orderheadphone jack today.

Do i also get the sleep/wake button and mute/ring button as well if i order this product or do i need to order these parts seperatly?

Is there a "kit" you recommend me to buy to open my iPhone?

Thanks for you reply

It's all one piece, and if you look at the repair guide (linked on the product page) it tells you and links you to all the tools you need.
