Just a quick joke video.
I did release a real fix video for this also:
youtu.be/7ztDYMzuyI8
I was given this phone and asked if I could get it to work to pull the data and photos, contacts and stuff off of it. All the videos and help on the internet didn't say anything about a hardware switch issue, Samsung and repair companies like to blame android for the problem.
After discovering this is not an android problem I took apart 2 other Samsung phone in the house that had issues like this, one a cheap flip phone and discovered they all use the same switches.
So I made this video.
