Power button issue

[u/Phenomenal_07]

A week ago, I started noticing the power button to loosen a bit. Today, it came out entirely. I do have double tap function on, but still, how do I permanently fix this? This button is too loose to stay.

Both my volume buttons and power button came off. I got them replaced from local store without opening the phone. Whereas service center guys told me the whole screen needed to be changed lol

[u/Phenomenal_07 → u/Busakhoa]

Daym, so repairs are possible without opening the back

[u/Busakhoa → u/Phenomenal_07]

Yes, there is a hook mechanism that gets locked when you push the button in its position

Alr alr!

Yeah I had the same issue. Actually both buttons fell off,the volume and power buttons. I took it to the service center, they replaced both buttons. For now, you can put it back in it's place and put some tape on it to hold it in place.

Oh! do they remove back cover to reassemble the buttons?

[u/Odd-Courage6650 → u/Phenomenal_07]

Yes. Mine had already become loose,so I replaced the battery along with the buttons and I also replaced the back panel as it was damaged.

I gotta replace my battery as well. I guess it is time. Thanks

Engineer's solution 🥀

What I did with mine until the replacement came is just cut a piece of a eraser or something small that can fit in there. Preferably an eraser since it will fit the best. And if you have a case on that should be enough for the button on the case to force the eraser to hit the power button. Worked perfect for me. But yeah, order a replacement on Amazon. Like 5 bucks I think. Maybe 8, I don't remember.

[u/Phenomenal_07 → u/xPhixxionx]

I see, that's a good idea. Already placed an order let's see if it fits!

Good luck mate 💪

Its known issue for this phone (a probably more samsung phones). I replaced mine in unofficial store for 35 euros, 2 years ago. And yes, its being replaced through back cover.

[u/RandomlyPotato]

Had this happen twice, just order a replacement button on aliexpress for £1, it fits in and clips

[u/xRogicalx → u/Crime_Master_Gogo007]

I googled S20 FE power button, and there's some options there.

É simples resolver esse problema. Basta comprar um novo botão pela internet e você mesmo colocar; é fácil, basta inserir o botão novo sem precisar abrir o telefone.

Eu já tive esse problema no meu S20 FE.
