Chosen Solution

Hey guys, So I took an 16gb 3G off of my grandfather’s hands in an effort to sell it (as he had two for some reason). Anyway… I soon find out that the center button works about 75% of the time and sometimes refuses to work for a few hours - its under warranty but when I take it to Apple they tell me water must of sneaked up the charging area and therefore the warranty is no good. The phone works in perfect condition other than this minor problem which only seems to happen every once in a while….. is there anyway to fix it? What am I looking at in terms of costs? Any insight is appreciated. Thanks

well, sell it with the known fault honestly to the buyer or FIX it yourself and end up with a phone that may not be any better and has a damaged shell. if it is as you describe, someone easily will buy it as is, as opposed to a ‘attemted fixed’ one

Can ifixit fix it?
