How to replace the physical power button of Samsung Galaxy S10?

So I've somehow snapped a physical connection on the power button (the only button found on the right side of the s10). It falls out easily, I am currently holding it in place with a piece of tape.

As far as I can tell all of the electrical components seems to be functioning as I can still short press (turn off the display) and long press( display the full power menu).

Curious as to what would be involved in replacing the button.

Hi @lulitd

Here's a video that shows how to replace the power button that may help.

Depending on the colour of the phone, search online for GH98-43730(insert appropriate letter) to find suppliers of the button, e.g.GH98-43730B = White, GH98-43730E = Green, GH98-43730H = Red etc.

Given that the "appropriate letters" are not evidently related to the colors (ie, "white" is "B," "green" is "E," "red" is "H," etc) is there any way to determine what color is associated with what letter?

For instance, I would have (logically) assumed "B" would have been for "black" and "W" would have been for "white," with "R" for "red." And so on.

How do we determine what the "appropriate letters" actually are?

Samsung chose the letters for the colours, not that they have the same letters as the first letter of how they're spelt..

If you search for the part number having the colour as indicated above then the supplier should state that the colour is what is shown for the part number.

For example when searching for GH98-43730E a lot of results show that it is Green
