Nice looking video, but how exactly do I turn off the Iphone, if the on off is broken. I guess I will let the battery drain to 0%.

Very helpful video, thank you! Do you know if I can use an iPhone 4s power/sleep button in an iPhone 5?

Question! My power button is not "click"ing anymore, do i need to replace that with a new one or can i maybe just adjust the position or something so it may work again? And lastly, do i really have to disassemble everything just to fix that power button? Please respond. Thanks :)

@RobTheSamplist: I'll take pink nails over nails that haven't seen any care for weeks any day of the week! :)

Good but we don't need repair videos to be presented like a news program cutting to a facial shot every 5 seconds. Also bright luminous pink nail polish in the shots of actual repair work is very irritating. Stick with short unpainted nails and keep the camera on the parts of the phone and just point to them please.

Why would somebody want to replace the power button? I thought it was the switch behind the button that breaks, the switch that's attached to the volume and vibrate button by ribbon cable.
