Mines starting to act up, same symptoms as my sisters whose completely got stuck. I hear Samsung is fixing these even out of warranty because it is just a common problem. Is that true? How have you guys fixed it yourselves?

Take a cotton swab and apply a bit of isopropyl alcohol to the button, should free it up. Same method often works for stuck iPhone buttons.

the actual physical button you push is fine, it doesn't get physcally stuck. it seems like an internal problem inside
but thank you for the tips I will try that
