@exilion since it clicks it should be mechanically okay. In that case I suggest that you change the power button flex. Since iFixit does not yet have a specific guide for that, use the one from here It is written in Spanish so use a browser that can translate the site. Replacement flex cables are readily available for low cost at many online stores.

While you work on your phone, take lots of pictures. Once you are done with it, take those pictures and create a guide for iFixit. That will help the next person that has a device with the same issues as you do. It's easy and fun to create these guides. https://ifixit.com/Guide/new The iFixit community will appreciate this.
