Hi my power button suddenly falls off. when i put it back on it wont get a secured fit and is wobbly.
I saw in aliexpress that they offer replacement power button piece. If i purchase it do i still need to disassemble my device or i can just push them back in the power buttons hole and would they get a secured fit?

As our Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is dust and water resistant I almost sure that you must disassemble the device to change the power button.
Let Samsung deal with it if under warranty
You dont have too dissasemble it buy a New one from Ebay swap it and thats it. You still have a water sealing

For the second freaking time in a row, my volume rocker fell out of my Sensation. I bought a new white battery cover a few months back to replace the black one, but the volume rocker has fallen out of both and I'm not spending $20 for another. Anyone else had this happen and fix it? What can I do?

I did this as a quick fix for my sensation's cover, until I had time to buy another. It worked for the day or two I needed to find a replacement.
There's a bit of plastic under the volume rocker that pushes it back up (it's a black strip and similar to the plastic under the power button). Use super-glue to make it stick. If you don't have a glue of some sort, you can heat up the tip of a metal screwdriver and you should be able to make it stick.
If there's no little black strip of plastic, you may just need to invent an alternative or buy a new cover and reinforce it with something.

Did this, but it fell out again rather quickly. Ended up using my old TPU case to just hold it in place. It falls out when I remove the case, and the case is an ugly yellow color because TPU cases yellow over time, but it's honestly the most effective thing I've done so far.
Also ended up buying a Nexus 4. The total cost that I've spent maintaining this phone is well over $170 (new battery, new back twice, repairs due to faulty/defective hardware plus the stupid high amounts that my local carrier charges to ship packages, since they're the only one in the area and they apparently run ****... Its just too much.

I know, this phone an incredible amount of design flaws that cost quite a bit to get replaced. I did say quick fix, as it's not meant to be permanent..
I'm not a big fan of cases, but I'll remember that if anyone asks.
A while back I removed the plastic power button from the plastic casing around the tablet. I had the constant power menu issue because of the misaligned power button inside the tablet. I'd like to sell the tablet, but I need to get a new power button for it, and I can't find one anywhere. The closest I've found is a complete replacement back cover, but on Ebay they want almost $40 just for the plastic shell. Does anyone know of somewhere that sells parts for the TF300?
Hi
The little white plastic power button/switch underneath the top cover has broken off, not the black button on the top cover!! I cannot seem to find any parts on ebay or anywhere, do I have to dismantle the phone and replace a whole ribbon or is there a way of replacing just the tiny white button? If I buy a damaged HOS could I repair it or is it impossible? Thanks anyone:crying:

I purchased a replacement off Ebay about a month ago
you will need a very small solder tip and a steady hand
Ebay item 321217874516
So yeah the home button paint has peeled off partly on my GS7, and while the cost of repair is approx. 50 USD from official Samsung, I would rather save some dough. I have the idea of just peeling everything off to make it a black home button, would that damage the FPS? (Like without any covering would it get scratched and read fingerprints less well?)
Give it a try! If it does not work you can always get it repaired.
Hey, I was wondering if you did peel the home button? Does the fingerprint scanner still work? I was also wondering if I could just paint over the button to make it look "brand new."
Hi all,
So I just noticed that the power button seems to be slightly loose, hanging a little downwards. It is still working fine, but a little wobbly, not like the other two buttons (volume and camera).
Anyone else noticing this?
Thanks,
Abprie
What is age of your phone?
Mine is 6 month old, no issues.
I bought it when it came out. Was that like one year ago? Can't remember...
So, no one else with a similar issue?
I removed the back soft transparent TPU cover which I use from the phone so I could touch and test all three naked buttons for you, and they all behave the same, no one is loose. However, throughout over a one year period of use, all three buttons were protected by the back cover from dust and forcible manipulation. Did you use your phone naked without a cover or not?

Thanks for checking this. The power button feels significantly looser than the volume buttons, so I guess that something is different.
I always used the back cover, otherwise the phone was too slippery for me.
I use the phone for 2 weeks and all the buttons are the same without complaint. I use all the time with a rubber case (back). If your button suffered more in use (but it still worked) you can change the key mapping as I did, because the power button too often accidentally pressed when I took the phone in my hand. I replaced the POWER button with the top ASUSA.
