On/off-switch of FP3+ is defect

[el_schalo]

so I search someone in or around Mainz or Frankfurt (Main) who would try to repair it for a fair price - or someone, who buys all modules but the basic module (including all my lost data and the defect switches).

You mean your power button is broken?

If so you most likely need the rear module only available second hand from a broken/dead phone

All kind of spare parts for FP3

So, after selling the display module the following are still avaible: Rear module Battery Speaker Module Bottom Module Top Module Camera Module (48 MP, upgraded it)

Sorry, the buttons were sold in the mean time as well…

Hi,
i could send you my old button PCB for the core module. I have replaced it with one from a broken core module a FP Angel here in the forum supplied me with. It does not work perfect, but it did function okay-ish.
It is rather easy to replace, maybe get some help at a local repair café.

Here’s images of the part to be replaced. It is really tiny.

This thread has more information.

Power button dead. If you fixed it, how did you do?

Hello everyone! My fp3 is out of warranty, and the power button requires a significant number of presses to be triggered. I have ruled out software as the cause, because the issue is 100% consistent: whatever the powerstate (off, bootloader, on) or the OS (android, /e/OS, lineageOS), the button just does not work. Support offered me the classic 3 options: send to fairphone for repairs, repair locally, or recycle. I’ll try the local repair shop eventually, but before, I really want to: Lear…

Cheers
