Sleep button broken, still clicks

I have an iPhone 3G which (after too many drops floor) doesn't have a working sleep button.

The button still "clicks" so it seems like it is something else.

I did take the phone apart and put it together again with no luck.

Do anyone of you know what I could do and/or what parts to replace?

I did the mistake of upgrading to iOS 4 to jailbreak it (not sold in my country) but I'm not able to without getting into DFU mode, which needs a working sleep button, soo I have an expensive device which only displays the iTunes logo :s

Thanks,

Gunnar Steinn

Gekozen oplossing

I had the same problem with my 3G. What I ended up doing is buying a new headphone jack to replace the old one. The button that the power button knob presses against is attached to the headphone jack. I bought it for about $9 on eBay. The power button functioned again after installing the new headphone jack. The guide to do this is found on the ifixit website.

Thanks, I'm going to try that!

In the meantime I was able to activate the phone with an AT&T sim so I can at least use it as an iPod.
