Put your mouth on button or near it then blow a steady stream of air.
Test it out. Do not spit.

i've pulled it hafe way off once then blew in side it then i tried to put it back on but it wouldn't go back i was freaking out so i gave it a quick smash it finally got back in place but no luck with it working

just blow it when the sholder button is saftely in place. blow the space inbeteen the ds and the button, do it 3 times.
Try the button out.

im not taking the button off again that might worsen the problem what's weird it works perfect with MPH and pictochat but a lot of my other games not so much luck

well im thinking the only way to fix this is to take it out again..
